Chapter 219 (1/2)

Zhao Deng, who just came out of Zhengqian hall, heard this. He knew how good Zhou Leping was to his sister. He grew up with them. However, even if they didn't believe Zhou Leping, it was unreasonable for her favorite sister to think so.

This made Zhao Deng feel uncomfortable. He strode over and squatted down to help Zhou Leqi. ”Master Zhou, the secret order has been sent to Dingzhou. It's a foregone conclusion and can't be changed. But don't worry. After taking Dingzhou, our army will be able to move forward. As long as Zixi is alive, we will be able to save her.”

Zhou Leqi arched his hand and said, ”I don't dare to ask the emperor to change his mind. I just want to ask the emperor to believe her. If she was treason, the state of Qi would have gone into a deserted land for a long time. Why hasn't there been any movement so far?”

Zhao Deng nodded with approval, ”Mr. Zhou is at ease. He... Also believes in Zixi, but now the situation does not allow Zixi to serve the public wholeheartedly. How can he not believe her?”

Zhou Le'an listened to him finish, a little doubt, ”Your Highness, the emperor, he...”

Because of her remarks just now, Zhao Deng's favor for her plummeted, and he didn't want to talk to her. He stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation and said, ”it's just that I want to go back, and Mr. Zhou will come with me.”

Zhou Leqi thanks and turns to leave with Zhao Deng.

Zhou Le'an was left in the same place by himself. He felt sad and depressed. He stamped his feet and bit his teeth. Looking at the back of Zhou Leqi and Zhao Deng, the more he thought about it, the more angry he was!

The maid in waiting asked her, ”madam, why don't we go back too?”

”Go back? Where are you going? ” Zhou Le'an looked in the direction of Zhengqian hall and said, ”let's go to see the emperor.”

”But...” said the maid carefully, ”didn't father-in-law he just say that? The emperor, he will not see anyone

”Is this palace an outsider? If the emperor does not see others, he will not see our palace. ”

The emperor's heart must be suffering at this time. It's time to be relieved. How could she give up such a good opportunity? She left, and many people were waiting for her.

But it's not surprising that he was stopped at the door by Shi Bi before he could enter the hall. ”Niang Niang, the emperor has orders. No one can see. Niang Niang, please go back.”

Zhou Le'an choked up in his chest, ”how do you know that the emperor doesn't see the palace before you go in?”

When Bi copied his hand, he looked embarrassed. ”Niang Niang, don't embarrass the slave. The emperor said that no one can be seen. Naturally, Niang Niang is included.”
