Zhou Lean has her own thoughts. The more Zhou Leping disagrees, the more determined her thoughts become, "I am also doing this for our Zhou Family. If Lin Xiafu wants to enter the palace, the emperor would not treat her coldly when he sees the empress and Lin Jing. The Lin Family already has a empress.

"Then you still can't enter the palace!"

"You've already offended Lin Jing in the fund-raising, he will definitely think of a way to take revenge. There's clearly such a chance right now, Sis, don't be stubborn anymore!"

Zhou Leping's attitude was resolute from the beginning to end, and only said those words, "No, don't even think about it! Our family has not reached the point where we can only protect our dignity by sacrificing you! "

Zhou Leqi had the same attitude as Zhou Leping, but he could not interject.

Zhu Guanliang could tell what was going on, and he could even sense what they were going to talk about.

Zhou Leping: "You think that entering the palace will solve all of your problems easily? You also know that Lin Jing wants to take revenge on me, and that the current Empress is his daughter. Then, have you ever thought about what the Queen would do to you after you enter the palace? Do you think she can be so magnanimous as to allow her enemy's sister to enter the palace and fight for her favor? "

"Your majesty cannot allow the Lin Family to cover the sky with one hand, maybe your majesty still hopes for me to enter the palace. This will frustrate the Empress's spirit, and if I gain power in the future, it'll be much easier for your majesty to deal with Lin Jing!"

Zhou Leping: "If I say no, then no. You better stay at home properly, you're not allowed to go anywhere!"

Zhou Lean: "Don't think that I don't know why you refused to allow me to enter the palace. You were just thinking about the Emperor and you even liked him, so you didn't want me to enter the palace.

Zhou Leqi slapped the table and stood up, he was furious, "Shut up!"

Zhou Lean was indignant, "Why aren't you letting me say it!"

"I told you to shut up!" For the first time in his life, Zhou Leqi struck Zhou Lean.

Zhou Lean looked at Zhou Leqi in disbelief, then looked at Zhou Leping, his eyes filled with unwillingness and hatred.

Zhou Leping's body suddenly stiffened, he did not say a word, and practically staggered away.

Zhu Guanliang followed her through the long corridor and arrived at the small garden.

The garden was not big, but it was very unique. She stood in front of a lotus pond made of limestone, facing the setting sun with her hands behind her back. She silently pondered.

Zhu Guanliang was not far from her, and seeing her standing upright, he guessed that she was crying.

"Why are you following me?"

After a long while, she turned around. Her expression was the same as always, there were no traces of tears on her face.

"Having lived in the General's Estate for so long, this is the first time I've seen such a scenery."

"You don't think I'm here to cry, do you?" She sighed sadly. "Does it matter what kind of woman makes a man's impression that it's just a matter of crying?"

Zhu Guanliang declined to comment.

"I haven't cried since my dad passed away. Crying is just a sign of weakness, and once you show weakness, there will be people who can't help but want to bully you. Crying can't solve the problem, so I rarely cry."

Zhu Guanliang retorted, "Crying is a way to vent one's emotions, and it doesn't represent one's weakness. The way Third Miss says it, the general must be very sad.

As if to prove that she was not sad at all, she smiled and said, "I am sad, but I am not sad to the point that I want to cry. When Le An was young, she stuck to me the most, and when I left the army, she cried the most; when she was still young, she held onto my leg and didn't let me go. When I rode away, she chased after me, fell down and got up, then fell and crawled again, until she couldn't run anymore."

"That's why I think that she must hate me in her heart. It's because I left her for four years and missed the time when she needed me to accompany her the most. Furthermore …" The expression on her face gradually turned sad. "She's right. I haven't let him down yet."

A woman seems to be more amorous than a man. Even if Zhao Shiqian had thoughts about her, when she came back and saw her current appearance, he had probably put it aside.

"But I didn't want her to go into the palace because I didn't want her to suffer. At home, no one would dare to bully her, but once we enter the palace, once we become the emperor's woman, she will have to face all kinds of lies by herself. Qiu Rong will definitely not let her live a good life.

Only, Zhou Lean did not understand her intentions, and even misunderstood her.

However, Zhu Guanliang didn't think so. On the contrary, he felt that Zhou Lean was very scheming and smart, she understood everything and thought that he had said it on purpose.

Zhou Leping had a fatal weakness, it was too easy for her to believe in the people around her. If one day the people around her harmed her, she would definitely die miserably.

I'm afraid that the General cannot control the Third Miss.

"I can't let her get involved in this mess. Even if it's Guan, we'll keep her locked up until the end of the talent show."

She knew very well what kind of place the palace was. Zhou Lean knew very well in her heart, she could not let her lose her life just because she was angry at Lin Xiafu for a moment.

She had brought a few soldiers from the army to guard Zhou Lean's door and watch her. She didn't have that much time herself, so she had to continue with the collection.

After that, Lin Jing added a few thousand gold, even if he had people announcing it, trying to save some face, but it was too late. There were not many people who were willing to believe him now.

Zhou Lean had a few tail tails behind her everywhere she went, she was extremely agitated. Seeing the talent show approaching, if she did not go out now, she would miss this chance.

She had waited for so many years, and now that she finally had the chance, she couldn't give up just like that.

Other people might not help her, but Zhu Guanliang was fine. The last time she spoke with him, he had the same thoughts as her. If she asked for his help, he would definitely agree to it.

Thus, she went to look for Zhu Guanliang, and Zhu Guanliang did not disappoint her.

It seemed like helping Zhou Lean did not benefit him, but there were many things in the world that did not seem to benefit him at all, and he might even be at a disadvantage. However, things were unpredictable.

Zhu Guanliang gave Zhou Lean a bag of powder and told her to hide it inside her sleeves. She pretended to argue with the servant and lead them through the door, and then she took the chance to throw the powder away. This powder could make people lose consciousness, and when the time came, she could exchange clothes with the servant girl and let them shout out that she wanted to hang herself, before taking advantage of the chaos to leave.

Zhou Lean listened to him and smoothly left the manor. Zhu Guanliang personally watched her leave, and while fortune and misfortune interacted, he had his own plans to let her into the palace. But a person like Zhou Lean … It was unknown whether or not it would become a stumbling block for him in the future.
