”General, you're not smart enough to think that the Emperor's agreement to disarmament is really only for the sake of the army's summary of power, are you?”

She must have understood, but she did not want to admit that the Emperor had such intentions towards her.

She was really silly. She had stayed on the side of love for so long, yet even now, she still refused to face the reality. The fact that the general had done her in this way was both admirable and lamentable.

There were some words that, as an outsider, she could stop immediately. It wasn't that she didn't understand them, she just pretended that she didn't understand them.

From ancient times until now, those who had achieved great feats had never had a good ending. If one held a heavy weapon in their hands to make the Sacred Heart fearful, then once doubt began to grow in their hearts, it would only end quickly.

Zhou Leping was born in a family of generals. She had heard of these rules since she was young, so she definitely wouldn't be able to understand it.

She won the war, and the Emperor had to give her a reward as an encouragement, but a reward was necessary, and the Emperor had to clear himself of threats.

Zhou Leping's expression was calm, and his tone was also calm. ”So what you're saying is that the emperor did this on purpose, just to make me lose my morale.”

Zhu Guanliang immediately denied it, ”I didn't mean it that way, all of this is the general's own guesses.”

”My own guess?” She suddenly leapt up from the horse, kicked Zhu Guanliang out of the horse's body, and squeezed his neck, ”But no matter how I carefully savor it, I can't help but feel that your words are provocative to our relationship as the monarch.”

Zhu Guanliang was not in a hurry, she had even pinched him to the point of suffocating, and was still in a calm state, ”Looks like General thinks the same, otherwise, he wouldn't be so angry.”

”Who the hell are you?”

He was already having trouble breathing, ”Big... Doctor. ”

”I'll ask you one last time, just who are you?” Zhou Leping used more strength in his hands, his eyes filled with killing intent.

Zhu Guanliang's words were already incoherent, ”Big … Doctor... If … If you don't believe me, you can … KILL... ”I …”

He did not know martial arts, was well versed in medical knowledge, and had even thought of a way for her to earn military pay. He truly did not look like someone with ulterior motives, but his words just now could not help but cause others to become suspicious.

She quickly released her hand before Zhu Guanliang could catch his breath, allowing him to breathe. He took a few deep breaths, and only stood up after recovering after a long time.

If these words get out, you will be sentenced to death. You are now my man, so you can't say these words in front of others. Don't say them in front of me in the future, or else I won't be so lenient next time.

Zhu Guanliang rubbed his neck, but was still able to laugh. ”I don't think the general is softhearted.”

”If I hadn't been lenient, I would have strangled you long ago.”

He was confident that she would not kill him. With a relaxed expression, he said, ”If you kill me, it will be hard to find someone who can treat the general's face.”
