”The will of the Sacred is so, the military order is like a mountain.”
As a general, all she could do was obey orders.
Zhu Guanliang picked up the machine crossbow and looked at it, ”It's not that we can't fight for the general's position, it's just a fight for the general's position.
What Zhao Shiqian had said was an imperial edict, but it was not absolute for her. However, to him, she had no choice but to obey the orders of the emperor, and there was also her own selfishness.
No matter what, she didn't want to stand against him.
Zhou Leping's heart was seen through as she pursed her lips, ”Aren't the Qi Kingdom also eyeing my State Of Zhao covetously? There have been several conflicts in Fringe City, and it was always the Qi Kingdom that had provoked them. If they were not prepared to attack at any moment now, could it be that they were just sitting there waiting to get beaten? ”
He fell silent and stopped discussing the matter with her. After a pause, he turned around and walked out.
At night, a pigeon flew over. After he finished reading, he lit the letter and only wrote a single word in reply: Accurate.
It had been three days since Zhou Zheng's wife last came to see Zhou Zheng. Zhou Zheng's heart was burning with anxiety, but his legs had not fully recovered and he could not walk around as he wished. He could only rely on Zhou Leping to go out and look for someone.
Because of the incident with Tang Zhaoyin previously, Zhou Leping had always been worried that he would take revenge on her, so she sent someone to protect Zhou Zheng's wife. But since it was inconvenient for two men to stay at the doorstep of a woman's house and they were also gossiped about, then Tang Zhaoyin had indeed not come looking for trouble.
He didn't expect something to happen soon after he got back.
When Qi Miao found the Zhou Zheng's wife, he saw that she was being pestered by a man, so he quickly went up and beat her up. He asked who the Zhou Zheng's wife was, and only said that he was a pathfinder, and he was unwilling to bring it up after that, so Zhou Leping didn't ask further.
But Zhou Zheng's wife was strange.
Zhou Zheng had not been in a good mood recently, and when he saw Zhou Leping asking him if he was a trash, he said that his wife had been wronged by him for a while. The two of them had married for six or seven years, and he wasn't even able to accompany her when she had children, so he couldn't really be considered a man.
Zhou Leping comforted him for a long time. When he thought about it later, could it be that there was someone outside his wife?
Although her thoughts were wrong, it was not easy for Zhou Zheng to not be home for many years. It was not easy for a woman to bring her child along, and no one knew how many people she would take along with her.
She also had a knot in her heart, so she decided to find out for herself what her wife had to say.
Unfortunately, she met Zhou Zheng's wife and got entangled by her. The man was dressed in black, and looked to be extremely tall. The two of them were originally entangled with each other, but when they saw her coming from afar, they released Zhou Zheng's wife's hands and ran away.
Zhou Leping chased after him. The man ran really fast, she did not chase him anymore, and went back to ask Zhou Zheng's wife what was going on. She mumbled that she was a lackey, and did not give him enough money to buy anything last time, but this time she asked for it.
The peddler? Wasn't the lackey going back and forth empty-handed?
