Chapter 743: Can ‘t Say It’s Xue Yan
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Back when he was at Shengming Academy, he had been jealous of Xue Yan and had targeted Xue Yan in every way. If Xue Yan had been the Crown Prince and acknowledged his ancestors, would he still be alive?
Moreover, he picked up the jade pendant and did not return it to Xue Yan, so Xue Yan would definitely hate him even more… Wouldn’t he lose his life after this?
No.
Wei Zizhan immediately shook his head in his heart. He didn’t dare say that it was Xue Yan’s.
However, if he said it was someone else’s, this person would definitely ask the person he was talking about. When he found out he was lying, he would still look for him in the end…
However, he could not really admit that it was his. Otherwise, this person would send him to the Imperial Capital and have a blood test with the Emperor. At that time, the crime would be even greater. He would definitely be beheaded for deceiving the Emperor…
Thinking of this, Wei Zizhan was so scared that he cried at the repercussions. “No, it’s not mine. This jade pendant is not mine…”
“Didn’t you say that it was really yours just now?” Sanye frowned. If this jade pendant didn’t belong to this kid, then who did it belong to? “Please tell me…”
Because of the worries in Wei Zizhan’s heart, he couldn’t answer that it was Xue Yan. He was even more frightened and cried, saying directly, “It’s not mine anyway. It’s not mine. Ah… I’m going back!”
After saying that, he wanted to leave again.
“K-kid!” Sanye hurriedly stopped him. He felt a headache coming on.
“Let me go, let me go!” Wei Zizhan cried and still wanted to leave, pushing him.
It wasn’t easy to find this, so how could Sanye possibly let Wei Zizhan leave? Naturally, he still stopped the kid.
Siye heard the crying inside and pushed the door open. After hearing what Sanye had said, Siye said, “If it really isn’t your jade pendant, then you have to tell us how you got this jade pendant.”
Wei Zizhan didn’t dare to say anything and just kept crying.
Siye had no choice.
In the end, it was still Sanye who said, “Let’s stop here. Hurry up and send someone to inform His Highness and the General. Also, tell the people in Changyu not to look for him anymore. Just say that they found him.”
“Yes.” Siye went and left the pawnshop.
However, before he could go to the contact point, he saw Erye rush over and say to him, “Siye, I just received news that His Highness has come to Changyu. He is now going from house to house in Heshi County to look for His Highness the Crown Prince. What about Sanye? Tell him to go as well.”
“Wait.” Siye felt that something was wrong. “Let me think this through. Is His Highness the Crown Prince in Heshi County now? Then who was the young master that Sanye and I saw just now? Was he not the Crown Prince?”
‘Who?”
“The child who had the jade pendant came by today.”
“Really?” Erye was pleasantly surprised. Then, he felt that something was wrong. “Yes, if His Highness is in Heshi County, then who is that child?” After a pause, he hurriedly said, “Forget it, let’s not bother about it for now. Is Sanye going to look after that child? Let’s hurry to Heshi County first. We must report this matter to His Highness.”
“Alright!”
When Erye and Siye saw Shao Zhongxi, they immediately reported everything they knew to him. When Shao Zhongxi heard this, he immediately asked, “Is that child called Wei Zizhan?”
When he was in Pingan Town, he had thought that the child who had pawned the jade pendant at Longyu was Wei Zizhan.
He felt that this was the only way for everything to connect.
Erye looked at Siye.
“Sanye and I didn’t even have the chance to ask him about this,” Siye said. “He only kept crying..” Then, he whispered to Qi Ye beside him, “Who is Wei Zizhan?”
