However, Zhu Guanliang did not know the expression on her face.
Zhu Guanliang's brows tightly knitted, and his voice was somewhat cold, ”Didn't I tell the general not to swing his blade and use his spear while he's heavily injured?”
Zhou Leping said with incomparable sincerity, ”I did not swing my blade or use my spear, and only picked up my sword when I went into the palace to change my armor, I did not put on any airs.”
She looked down and saw his serious face.
Zhu Guanliang was born good-looking, elegant and charming, with a solemn expression on her face, thin lips, and a pair of narrow and bright eyes. Just like what she had said, she had a natural charm, all of it being at the tip of her eyebrows.
What Zhou Leping saw in the army were all large and sturdy men, and the only people who could be considered to be pleasing to the eye were the two brothers Qi Si and Qi Miao. She did not have the mind that those young girls had in their hearts, and her gaze was retracted from Zhu Guanliang's body without any reluctance, and it was so painful that she was about to shatter her teeth.
Zhu Guanliang helped her clean up the pus, sprinkled a layer of medicinal powder on top of it, and then used gauze to wrap it from her chest all the way to her back before coming back around her shoulders.
Every time the gauze wrapped around his back, Zhu Guanliang would have to lean forward. In order to make it easier to bandage him, Zhou Leping had to open his arms, and from the looks of it, it was as if they were hugging each other.
”Dr Zhu, can I ask you something … My face … Do you have any way to help me take a look? ”
Zhu Guanliang tied a knot on her wound and sneered in his heart, but he still said, ”What happened to the general's face?”
Today, when Zhou Leping entered the palace, he was listening to the maidservant talk about Zhou Leping and Zhao Shiqian.
When talking about Zhao Shiqian and Zhou Leping's childhood sweethearts, Zhao Shiqian had even promised to marry Zhou Leping and become the Crown Prince's consort. Although there was no marriage agreement and it was not set, Zhou Leping, as the second young miss of General's Estate, matched up with Zhao Shiqian at that time, and almost everyone saw Zhou Leping as the Crown Prince's consort.
died on the battlefield. In order to avenge his father and support his entire General's Estate, Zhou Leping resolutely joined the army and left.
That was the reason why he asked her this question. Today, after entering the palace, he reckoned that Zhao Shiqian had seen her current appearance and felt sorry for her.
Mentioning her face, even Zhou Leping's gaze darkened, ”Two years ago, someone poisoned my food, and that poison was tricky. That night, my face was covered in poison, and afterwards, I was ordered to retrieve it, but my face … and it became what it is now. ”
”The poison can be cured, but after it has scattered, the poison sore is like a scar left on your body. If you want to remove it again, it will be extremely difficult.”
