It wasn't easy for him to catch up with Zhou Leping, and then he mumbled to himself, ”Everyone says that the battlefield isn't a place for people to stay, these words are not bad, how long have you been there?

Zhou Leping stopped and looked at him, ”You don't need to explain so much. I'm already used to it and I don't blame you for it.

”Then your face … What exactly is going on? ”

He asked very carefully, and even a little timidly, not because he was afraid that she would attack again, but because he was afraid of poking her in the heart.

”Poisoned.” She didn't want to bring it up again, so she hurriedly said, ”The matter is already in the past, I have already begun to look away. It's just that others are still holding onto it.”

Although he and Zhao Shiqian were not born from the same mother, his mother was still the empress dowager's younger sister. After the empress dowager's death, he was taken in by the empress dowager's side, and the empress dowager doted on him so much that she didn't dare give him the moon. She was very used to it, and never disregarded his words, saying that sometimes the Prince Rui's words were more effective than begging the emperor.

He was a devil in disguise and was not afraid of anything. He immediately patted his chest and promised, ”Who dares to talk about things with your face in the future? This King will make him suffer the consequences!”

”Prince Rui is too serious.”

”Don't talk to me like that, I'm not an outsider, what do you call me before?”

”This official …”

”It sounds weird to me.”

It really wasn't that Zhou Leping purposely said that to keep away from him, it was just that Zhou Leqi had warned her before she entered the palace that she was in a high position with a heavy soldier in her hands.

Right now, countless pairs of eyes were staring at her. She had to be extremely careful with every word and action, otherwise, the higher she stood, the more miserable she would fall.

This principle had never changed. She didn't dare to let herself fall into such a situation, as she had learned the lesson from countless people's flesh and blood.

”In the past, I was young and ignorant. But now, I have to follow the rules when I am in the imperial court. I can speak of my relationship in private, but in the palace, I am an official.”

Zhao Deng understood what she meant, he blinked his eyes at her and said, ”I understand, now that you're in Chief General, those who are jealous of you are definitely waiting for you, let's talk about it in private.”

He spoke so much that he could not stop even when he opened his mouth. He was so anxious that his mouth turned parched, and what he should not have said was already parroted out. ”I just saw you and Royal Brother talking outside, what did you guys say? You have changed so much, has Royal Brother … ”
