Zhou Lean saw that she was hesitating, and hugged her arm in a spoiled manner, "Elder sister, please let me go with you. Do you know who the current Empress is? Qiu Rong, she is your best friend from before, but the moment you joined the army, she immediately entered the palace to become the queen. Not only that, her sister often came to bully me, and now we are all proud and proud of ourselves, I want to go into the palace to see her expression.

Of course she knew that Qiu Rong had become the empress during her first year in the army. Zhao Shiqian had sealed her immediately after becoming the emperor.

Speaking of sadness, that year was the saddest. However, he was the emperor. He couldn't possibly keep his position hanging just because he was waiting for her, right?

"Sister, just let me go. I also want to benefit from your presence and let them know who you are. In the future, no one will dare to bully me anymore!"

Zhou Leping softened her words, "Alright then, you go back and prepare first, I'll bring you with me tonight."

Zhou Lean was extremely happy, he chattered like a little sparrow and went out.

In these few years that she was away, big brother had a weak body, a modest and amiable personality, he had always maintained a friendly attitude, his temper was tolerable as long as he could endure. Although he was appointed as Ministry of Rites's assistant minister, with such a character, he was inevitably bullied by his comrades.

Zhou Lean was a little overlord. Although he would not stir up trouble everywhere, he was definitely not someone who could be easily bullied. He was too strong, but if someone used power to suppress him, there would be an unspeakable bitterness.

Now that she had returned, her General's Estate would no longer be looked down upon by others. It would be good to bring her out to recognize someone, and remember that this belonged to her family.

After receiving her permission, Zhou Lean went back to dress up. He was extremely busy with washing the dishes and baths, picking out clothes and jewelry.

Zhou Leping had nothing to take care of, with her face, it would be the same whether she took care of him or not.

Before leaving, Zhu Guanliang came to find her and gave her a mask.

Zhou Leping was trying to think of a way to cover his face, this mask of his was just like a timely rain.

"Dr Zhu, you are so considerate." She took the mask and put it on. It was quite suitable, covering half of her face. She even opened her mouth, not delaying her drinking and eating. Both were perfect.

"I got this from a stall outside. It's not worth anything. The mask that the general wants hasn't been made yet, so I'll use this as a substitute for now."

"I've troubled you."

Zhou Leping was not short, and was considered tall among the girls, compared to the males, he could be considered big, but Zhu Guanliang was even taller, looking down on her from above. After wearing the mask, he indeed looked a lot more pleasing to the eye.

"I need to remind the general that his injuries have not yet healed. Do not drink alcohol."

The corner of Zhou Leping's mouth twitched. "Today, the emperor set a banquet to welcome me. Not drinking wine is disrespectful."

"Drinking will cause the wound to fester."

"If it's pus, then so be it. At that time, I'll have to trouble Dr Zhu to apply the medicine for me."

Zhu Guanliang didn't say a word and looked at her in a good manner.

Zhou Leping's eyes were somewhat confused, "Why are you looking at me like that? At most I'll have less. "

"Then just pretend I didn't say anything."

She was specially reminded of her own safety, but she didn't care about her own injuries. Her doctor's kindness had been spoiled, so it was only right for him to have a temper.

Zhou Leping came to his senses, and shouted, "Dr Zhu has put in a lot of effort, this general will remember it all. Don't worry, I won't drink more wine that can escape."

Chief General's tolerance for alcohol was obvious even in the army. She wouldn't get drunk even if she had thousands or tens of thousands of cups. This time, the emperor was holding a banquet for her.

On the way out, she was wearing the mask Zhu Guanliang had given her, which covered most of her face. Along the way, many people cupped their hands and congratulated her, she did not recognize any of them, but it was a good thing that Zhou Leqi introduced them, otherwise, it would really be awkward.

"You must remember all the people that I introduced to you just now. You are now a Chief General, and will be walking around the palace often in the future. You can't not know them."

Zhou Leping nodded his head, "Brother is right, I have remembered it all."

The three siblings chatted as they made their way to the auditorium. As they passed through the main hall, they suddenly saw a commotion in front of them. Many ministers were gathered there, talking animatedly while pointing at a particular spot.

Zhou Lean was curious, "What happened? Why are they all stuck there? "

Zhou Leping took two steps forward, "You'll know once you go take a look."

The group formed a circle, with two people in the middle, one man and one Palace Maid.

The man was drunk, with a Palace Maid in his arms, lying on the ground. He probably treated this place as his own bedroom, and even made a move on the Palace Maid, mumbling to himself, "Stop messing around, you just want that hairpin right? When we get back, I'll get someone to buy it for you.

Palace Maid was frightened, but the man who was drunk had an unusually strong strength. No matter how much she tried to struggle, it would be in vain.

Everyone on the side pointed and talked amongst themselves, while the two eunuchs on the side either pulled or did not. They were so anxious that they were sweating.
