C63 (1/2)

Zhu Guanliang stood firmly without moving, eating and drinking as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

Zhao Deng was embarrassed to death by himself, he turned around and looked at Zhu Guanliang, ”Don't just eat it, say a few words.”

Qi Miao wanted to drink a mouthful of tea to calm himself down, and upon hearing what was said, he spat out a mouthful of tea.

Zhou Leping looked at Zhu Guanliang, then looked at Qi Miao, puzzled. ”The three of you …”

Zhao Deng hurriedly said, ”About that, Qi Miao went to find the Dr Zhu in the afternoon, and then he saw...”

He hadn't even finished speaking when Qi Miao stood up with a ”whoosh”. ”I didn't see anything.

At that moment, Zhao Deng really wanted to pry Qi Miao's head apart to see what was inside.

Why did you run when you realized it? Since you think so, can't the two of them speak privately? You can't believe that you didn't see anything when you said it in front of so many people!

Qi Si gasped in surprise and pulled at Qi Miao's sleeves. He could not hide the curiosity on his face, ”What's wrong? What did you see? ”

Qi Miao sat down earnestly, as though he was keeping his promise, he shook his head: ”Nothing.”

Zhao Deng stroked his forehead and put down his chopsticks. He wanted to say something, but he did not know what to say.

Zhou Leping was also very curious, but if he asked now, he would definitely not be able to ask anything, so he could only suppress the curiosity in his heart and wait for the end of the meal.

After the meal, she stopped Zhu Guanliang from entering the river to wash up, and carried the wooden basin back to the lake to rest.

In the dark and windy night, she suddenly jumped out wearing a mask, looking like a hooligan who was plotting against a woman from a good family.

But Zhu Guanliang did not even blink his eyes as he stopped and called for the general.

”Aren't you afraid that the person who came out was an assassin? To force you, then let you bring him to find me, and in the end wipe your neck with a single stroke of your sword? ”

His eyes looked as if he was looking at a fool, ”If an assassin doesn't even know which tent the general lives in, then he's not an idiot who doesn't know his own capabilities, and would definitely not succeed.”

”Do you know what jokes are? You're as boring as a log! ” She muttered a few words, then saw that his hair was dripping water and his clothes were half dry. She said, ”Aren't you cold when you go to the river to bathe in such a cold weather?”

”An occasional cold shower is good for you.”

After finishing the idle chatter, she cleared her throat and began to ask about the proper matters, ”What shameful things did you and Prince Rui do in the afternoon? After being interrupted by Qi Miao, they did not continue speaking anymore. What did the Prince Rui want to clarify? ”

”Why didn't the general ask his majesty directly?”

”I understand him too well, Qi Miao must have seen something that's hard to explain, if not he would not use the word 'clarify', he would not even be able to recuperate now, and would not even be able to ask.”

”It's just a misunderstanding.” He said, ”When I helped His Highness this afternoon, I was seen by Lord Qi.”

”What's there to look at …”

Then, thinking about Zhao Deng's illness, and how she thought about the need for acupuncture as mentioned by Zhu Guanliang last time, she suddenly understood.

It turns out that he saw something that he shouldn't have seen. He didn't know about Zhao Deng's illness, so it was most likely that he misunderstood Zhu Guanliang and her …
