Zhu Guanliang really wanted to remind her, have you thought that the Emperor actually did this because he hoped that you could sneak out and do something? Otherwise, if he really needed to be placed under house arrest, why wouldn't he be placed under house arrest in the palace?
However, he did not want to say it. As long as she did not die, it would not affect him in the slightest. He had mentioned to her so many times that there was no need to waste words on her.
”What if the Madam Wang confesses to Zhou Zheng that you and Fresh Witch colluded with each other?”
She shook her head with certainty, ”I don't know about Madam Wang, but Zhou Zheng is a man of steel. He would never do that, I believe in him.”
Zhu Guanliang drank a mouthful of the wine that he had just released, his hand supporting on the stairs as his body fell backwards, ”I and the general have already considered our friendship, although I have always been the one saving the general, if anything happens to the general in the future, I will not sit idly by. I have no other choice, I will forever welcome the general here.”
”You?” Zhou Leping immediately laid back on the ground, rested his arm on top of it, and sneered, ”No matter how downcast I am, I will not fall to the point that I need to rely on you. Look at yourself, you are so poor, you can't even bear to look at your proud bones.
Zhu Guanliang lay down on his side, leaned on his elbows, and looked at her, ”Am I that useless? It's just raising a woman. Others might also want rouge, water, silk, silk, silk, silk, and gold, but for a general like him, as long as he can fill his stomach, it's extremely easy to raise. ”
She rolled her eyes in annoyance, ”Are you looking down on me? ”If someone can take it, then I can't?”
Zhu Guanliang raised his eyebrows and smiled, ”I can, of course I can.”
The content of the conversation suddenly became strange, Zhou Leping was startled, and sat up abruptly.
If he drank too much, he must have drunk too much.
”It's getting late, I …” She stood up and turned around to see a figure in the corridor. It was buried in the shadows. She couldn't see his face. His hands were clasped behind his back as he looked in her direction.
She frowned and instantly became alert. Her hand subconsciously touched her waist. ”Who is it?”
The figure moved and walked over.
Zhou Leping's mind was filled with thousands of thoughts. Normally, no one would barge their way in despite the tight security of General's Estate, but right now, everyone had been replaced by the imperial guards, so there shouldn't be anyone who should barge in.
He didn't know what kind of person it was that would be so silent.
Zhu Guanliang also dusted off his robes and stood up to look at the figure. He was tall, a man, and the way he walked looked familiar.
The figure finally walked out from the corridor, the two red lanterns above his head shone brightly, Zhou Leping squinted to take a look, and immediately retracted his posture to apologize, ”This servant greets Your Majesty.”
Zhao Shiqian changed into his usual attire, and appeared at the General's Estate in the middle of the night without making a sound. Now, with his brows knitted, displeasure was written all over his face.
Zhu Guanliang bowed and retreated to the side silently, his expression did not change at all.
Zhou Leping went forward to welcome him, ”It's so late, why is the emperor here? ”Why didn't you get someone to say anything in advance when you've arrived? If you meet me in the wrong, please forgive me, your majesty.”
Zhao Shiqian looked at Zhu Guanliang, and the moment he opened his mouth, his voice turned cold, ”I came to take a look, I didn't expect to...”
He didn't expect to see such a scene, much less hear such words.
Zhu Guanliang looked gentle and reliable, and was somewhat rigid in his medical skills. As a result, he was completely at ease by Zhou Leping's side.
He just didn't expect that people really couldn't just look at appearances.
