We'll have you impersonate the Crown Prince and create a prosperous era for the Great Qian Dyna

Zhou Tiancheng didn't speak; his mind was in turmoil.

Qin Zhi'ang had no intention of letting him speak.

After making a sarcastic remark to Zhou Tiancheng, Qin Zhiang turned around and bowed to Zhou Rui.

"Your Majesty, since the deceased substitute also had the same birthmark, then the birthmark on the back of His Highness the Crown Prince's neck cannot prove his identity."

"This old minister believes that Your Majesty should go to the Eastern Palace and have someone carefully examine the body?"

"It's good that His Highness the Crown Prince has been cleared of any wrongdoing."

Zhou Rui was still hesitating.

In his heart, Zhou Tiancheng was the true crown prince.

He couldn't understand why Qin Zhi'ang and Zhou Tianze were so fixated on the Crown Prince.

He was still hesitating whether to anger the Crown Prince over these matters when, unexpectedly, the guard suddenly widened his eyes.

"Your Majesty! This servant has remembered!"

"His Highness the Crown Prince fell off his horse while hunting last year, and he has a scar on his chest. His double definitely doesn't have that scar!"

"I'm certain the deceased was the Crown Prince! Because there are scars on the body!"

The moment those words were spoken, the entire room was stunned.

Even Zhou Rui's gaze hardened.

Zhou Tianze got up from the ground and laughed loudly.

No matter how cleverly you scheme, a fake is a fake!

"You still dare to claim you're the crown prince?"

Everyone looked at Zhou Tiancheng.

His expression was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.

He couldn't see the back of her neck, but he could see her chest.

No scars!

What troubled him even more was that Guli changed the clothes, and he had no idea what the scar on the prince's chest looked like or where it was located.

But he understood that at this time, he absolutely could not show any weakness or flaws.

"I am the true crown prince, and whoever comes, I will still be the crown prince."

Zhou Tiancheng gave himself a mental suggestion, and when he looked up again, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Despite the scrutinizing gazes of everyone, he casually leaned back in his chair, exuding a relaxed yet arrogant air.

"Father, are you planning to make me take off my clothes again?"

He raised his eyebrows, showing no sign of guilt, but rather an excited expression.

What is he excited about?

Zhou Rui frowned, still not quite understanding.

Zhou Tianze was also completely bewildered and had no idea what this fake crown prince was all about.

Is he truly unafraid of death?

Only Qin Zhi'ang's expression changed.

He immediately bowed to Zhou Tiancheng.

"Your Highness, you misunderstand. Until the truth comes out, you will always be the Crown Prince. Even if you are to take off your clothes, they will be the clothes of a corpse."

"We'll know as soon as we go to the Eastern Palace."

Qin Zhi'ang reacted quickly, and the others also realized what was happening.

Why is the Crown Prince excited?

If the Crown Prince is forced to take off his clothes again under these circumstances, then the Third Prince will be unable to stay in the capital even if he wants to.

The Crown Prince is the heir apparent to the throne and the face of the Great Qian Dynasty.

The first time you forced him to take off his clothes, you could say you had a legitimate reason to do so.

But now that the Crown Prince has already proven himself once, forcing him to take off his clothes is pushing his luck and will come at a price!

The Crown Prince's only request from beginning to end was to allow the Third Prince, Zhou Tianze, to leave the capital and take up his fief!

Qin Zhi'ang was scared; he dared not gamble!

Because they've already lost the first game!

At this moment, Zhou Tiancheng became even more unscrupulous.

"Hey, what are you saying, Lord Qin? The Eastern Palace is a bit far. Why don't we just take off my clothes here and let you all have a good look?"

As he spoke, he stood up, looking as if he were about to take off his clothes.

Qin Zhi'ang was so frightened that his face turned pale.

He's starting to have doubts!

Could it be that the person in front of us is the real crown prince?

Otherwise, why would he be so arrogant and confident?

Little did he know, all that arrogance and confidence was an act by Zhou Tiancheng!

This time, it was Zhou Rui who raised his hand to stop Zhou Tiancheng's actions.

"Enough! Your Highness, since your ministers and the Third Prince are still worried, why don't we go to the Eastern Palace to take a look?"

"The truth is right there on the corpse; it's obvious at a glance. Why debase yourself like this?"

Zhou Tiancheng smiled dismissively, turned around, and led the way out.

Seeing that no one moved, he turned around and glanced at them.

"Come on, what are you all still standing here for?"

"Weren't we going to take a look at the East Palace? Then you'd better look carefully!"

"But you should also be mentally prepared. If it's proven that I am the true crown prince, are all those who doubted me ready to pay the price?"

The other high-ranking officials didn't seem to care, since it had nothing to do with them; they were simply watching a good show.

But Qin Zhi'ang was already in a difficult position.

He glanced at Zhou Tianze suspiciously.

This moment.

Even Zhou Tianze looked bewildered.

Zhou Tianze himself couldn't tell whether the crown prince was real or fake.

Zhou Rui stood up, coughed, and beckoned everyone to head to the East Palace.

"Alright, let's go take a look."

"As for the third brother, once this matter is settled, you should go back to your room and reflect on your actions. The position of Prefect of the Capital will be vacated for your eldest brother."

Zhou Tiancheng is almost becoming withdrawn.

He wanted to intimidate these people and prevent them from investigating the body.

But to his utter surprise, Zhou Rui set the price for him with just a mere Prefect of the Capital.

Little did he know that the Prefect of the Capital was the local official in charge of governing the capital.

This position was held by the emperor's most trusted and favored person.

By handing over the position of Prefect of the Capital to Zhou Tianze, the emperor was essentially signaling his intention to support the crown prince!

therefore.

Zhou Tiancheng appeared relaxed, but was inwardly terrified.

Zhou Tianze looked at him as if he wanted to devour him!

Are you satisfied now?

After gritting his teeth and saying this, Zhou Tianze walked towards the East Palace.

At this moment, in Zhou Tianze's heart, Zhou Tiancheng was the true crown prince!

He had already assumed that he was going to lose his position as the Prefect of the Capital!

Little did he know, Zhou Tiancheng was also filled with bitterness.

His acting skills fooled Zhou Rui, Qin Zhiang, and even Zhou Tianze, but he couldn't change the facts.

When he stood in front of the corpse again and saw the guards run over to remove the undergarments from the body, Zhou Tiancheng closed his eyes in despair.

Still can't do it?

At the same time, a guard's excited shout came.

"Your Majesty! This servant did not lie! The scar is still there! This is the real Crown Prince!"

now.

Surrounding the corpse were Zhou Rui and others, as well as a group of palace maids and eunuchs from the Eastern Palace.

When someone pointed at the corpse and said that this was the real crown prince, all the palace maids and eunuchs were terrified and knelt down on the ground with a thud.

Zhou Rui's face was ashen, his eyes filled with disbelief!

He gritted his teeth and turned to look at Zhou Tiancheng.

"What else do you want to say?"

"You almost fooled me!"

Qin Zhiang was taken aback at first, then let out a long sigh of relief.

He felt little joy, but rather a sense of relief at surviving a disaster.

The story of the real and fake princes was full of twists and turns, and he himself was almost confused. At this moment, he only felt relieved that things were finally over.

Zhou Tiancheng remained expressionless.

Even though he was a movie star, he didn't know what expression to make at this moment.

after all.

What is fake can never become real.

In the end... is death inevitable?

Chou Tien-cheng admitted it.
