C54 (2/2)
Qi Miao looked at her silently.
Zhou Leping couldn't stand this point of him, and just stared at you until your hair stood on end. Only when you could no longer stand it did you tell him the truth.
”Alright, I met him teasing good families twice. Today, I coincidentally met him teasing Zhou Zheng's wife, teaching him a lesson, but he didn't accept it, and instead became even more arrogant. I took off one of his arms and one of his legs, and then was curious about who was behind him.”
”Give the general the answer tomorrow.”
He turned around and left like a gust of wind.
As long as Tang Zhaoyin didn't have his back to the emperor, she wouldn't be afraid of him no matter who he was relying on, but he couldn't possibly rely on the emperor either. If he wasn't some big shot, after cleaning up and throwing him into the prison, he would be locked up for eight or ten years.
Having more friends was better than having more enemies. With so many enemies, there would be a day when the boat would capsize.
Lin Jing was furious when he heard about it. He slapped the table and cursed at the Rice Bucket.
He was planning to use this as an excuse tomorrow, but it seemed like it would not work, regardless of whether Zhou Leping found out or not, she had met him. If he brought up the matter of the search in the imperial court tomorrow, he would be the one to send the person.
Thus, he could only give up.
He was currently angry, and the servant did not want to mention it, but since he was crippled, he had no choice but to do so. Hence, he tremblingly said, ”Master, Young Master Tang was sent back, but …” Her arms and legs were broken, it was said that … It was broken by Zhou Leping. ”
Lin Jing almost vomited out blood from the pain, ”It's Zhou Leping again, how did I meet her in such a good condition?”
When the servant told him the whole story, Lin Jing fell backwards while clutching his chest, ”That idiot! I'm warning him that he doesn't even hear a single word of what I just said. You go and tell him that before the test, if he dares to cause trouble in front of my eyes, he's at death's door. Don't expect me to save him! ”
The servant accepted the order and took two steps back. Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, Lin Jing asked again, ”Did you mention my name?”
”Don't worry, my lord. Tang Gongzi knows his limits and didn't mention your name.”
”Go down.”
Zhou Leping slept soundly that night, and her nightmares lingered around her. When she woke up, her undergarments were all wet.
She dreamed that the slip of paper was handed to Zhao Shiqian, and then Zhao Shiqian asked her why she was colluding with the Xianyuer, and even asked her if she coveted the position of emperor. It was hard for her to say anything, and she desperately tried to explain, but her mouth was stuck, and she could not open her mouth, and in the end, could only watch herself be sent to the guillotine. When the guillotine blade fell, she suddenly opened her eyes and touched her neck, glad that it was only a dream.
Day and night, dreams.
In the end, she was still afraid.
People often said that accompanying a monarch was like accompanying a tiger. As an official, the trust of an emperor was the most important. If one lost trust, they wouldn't be too far off from death.
Qu Tan brought water in and washed her face. Seeing her covered in sweat, he made a big fuss, ”General, what's wrong? Why are you sweating so much? ”
”I'm fine.”
”Then why are you sweating so much?”
”Hot.”
”But it's not hot at all.”
”Mind your own business, just put the water down and get out.”
Qu Tan scratched his nose in embarrassment, he took a step out, then turned back, ”The people from Prince Rui were here just now, they said that they have almost built the shop, and wanted you to take some time to go over to take a look.”
She washed her face and exclaimed, ”So fast? Zhao Deng is really reliable! ”
