He spoke too quickly, causing Zhou Leping to be startled for a moment, then shook her head, ”It's fine, originally, it was none of her business, Lin Xiafu was the one who did it, I never thought that her own sisters could do such a thing, if she had a bad idea, it would cost the lives of her entire family.”

”It's pretty stupid.”

”I also feel that he's pretty stupid, that he's the first child of the emperor. Isn't it obvious that he's tired of living?”

Zhu Guanliang laughed, and did not continue her sentence, and turned back.

They weren't talking about the same person at all. Zhou Leping was talking about Lin Xiafu, and he was talking about her.

After Zhou Leping waited for him to enter, he stood at the same place thinking for a long time. Finally, he reacted, the person that he said was really stupid, could it be that he was talking about her?

But how was she stupid?

A dignified Chief General, after going down to the battlefield, her brain wouldn't be able to count the number. She would have to think about it for half a day just to say that she was stupid.

Lin Jing had a huge blow coming from the empress dowager's estate. In the past few days, he always shut himself in his study and didn't come out, nor did he see any guests.

Previously, he thought Zhu Guanliang was a normal, slightly capable doctor, but now, it seems that he was not as simple as just a doctor.

The Ministry of Justice said that he found Xiao Wan and brought him into the palace. He had personally checked the corpses of the people guarding Xiao Wan when he brought them back, and saw that they were all killed with a single slash. The wounds on their necks were all uniform and of the same depth.

Later on, it was said that they had hired thugs. For such a fatal injury, not to mention thugs, even assassins in the mansion might not be able to do it.

In such a short period of time, where did he find such a highly skilled assassin with just his own strength?

Or …

Or had he done it himself?

But when he thought about it again, he felt that something was amiss. If Zhu Guanliang knew martial arts, why did he not help when Zhou Leping Qiu Shou was in danger?

The more he thought about it, the more suspicious he felt that there was something wrong with Zhu Guanliang.

The last time he went to visit Zhou Leping, he had people secretly investigate his background. Zhu Guanliang was a proper doctor, capable of applying medicine under the sun, his movements were proficient and smooth, it did not seem like he was pretending, but he did not seem to be doing anything strange.

Previously, the emperor had investigated his identity and he had sent people to investigate as well. There wasn't anything special about it. It was unknown whether it was because he hid his identity too well or because he hid it so well.

”Lord …” Just as he was deep in thought, the manager called out to him, ”The exam questions for this year's Imperial Examinations have been sent over. Please take a look.”

He paced back and forth in the room impatiently, letting her in. After looking through the room a few times, he asked again, ”Can Tang Zhaoyin's legs be raised?”

”I feel better, but I'm not completely fine yet. I'm still a little lame walking.”

A foster son, a blood related son, a cripple, and a cripple were all given to him by Zhou Leping.

”Let him prepare first. If he wants to embarrass me again, don't blame me for being impolite.”

”Yes.”

After losing to Zhou Leping so many times, it was finally his turn to turn around. He couldn't just turn around and lose to a silly little girl, and after experiencing a few times, he understood that the key was not Zhou Leping, but Zhu Guanliang who was by her side. As long as he could control Zhu Guanliang now, she would not have any tricks up her sleeve.

Tang Zhaoyin had been lying in bed for a few months, and after getting out of bed, he limped. Although the doctor said that he would recuperate in the future, the hatred in his heart was real.
