They were mostly here to watch a good show, other than Zhou Leqi's two best colleagues, his colleagues did not dare to stand out and speak up for Zhou Leping, because they were not sure what the emperor wanted to say.
Although the Chief General had done well, when the Emperor saw her expression, he could tell that she was disgusted even though he tried his best to control his expression.
”Chief General has done a great job in defending the enemy. Tonight, I will be welcoming the general at the Listening Hall. If there's nothing else, let's disperse. I …” ”I'm tired.”
When the emperor stood up, his body swayed. He was struck so hard that he didn't even turn around.
After entering the palace and obtaining the title of a first grade Chief General, he had disgraced the emperor and cooled his passionate heart.
It was unknown whether it was because he had gained more or because he had lost more.
She was scared out of her wits. She didn't even dare to raise her head on the way back, afraid that she would scare them again with her current appearance.
She could not remember the last time she had looked in a mirror. No one in the army cared what she looked like, much less talked about her appearance.
A face appeared in the bronze mirror, and she studied herself for a moment, then quickly looked away.
No one could blame the Emperor for being disappointed. His face was indeed enough to make people lose their appetite.
”General... ”General …”
The maidservant at the door looked at her cautiously, his voice trembling.
This was the maidservant that she used to live in, named Qu Tan. She was younger than her by two years, and used to love to stick close to her.
”What is it?” She put the mirror on the table and turned her back.
”Eunuch He from the palace has brought the emperor's reward. Eldest Young Master wants you to go out and have a look.”
”I'm not going. I'll leave everything to Eldest Brother.” She pointed to the mirror on the table. ”Take this away. Don't put a mirror in my room from now on.”
Qu Tan took the mirror, and stood there in a daze. He wanted to say something a few times, but in the end, he did not.
She carried the copper mirror to the door, and Zhou Leping called out to her, ”Go out and find a blacksmith for me.”
”What does the general want a blacksmith for?”
”If I tell you to go, then go.”
