Chapter 257

Ji Yue is Xianyu's last general who is good at fighting and always wins. The whole hope of Xianyu lies on his shoulders. In the battle between Xiushan and Zhou Leping, King Xianyu appreciated him very much. In the competition with Zhu GuanLiang in Xiushan, King Xianyu was more confident than him. He felt sure that he would win. But in the end, he didn't even carry a corpse back.

The soldiers of Xianyu who came back vividly described the scene of the competition. The story spread to Qi Simiao, and then all the way back to the capital. Zhao Shiqian knew about it, so the rumor that Zhou Leping's martial arts were exhausted was broken.

Before, some people in the court hesitated and thought that Zhou Leping couldn't escape from Qi State because he had abandoned his kung fu. Instead of being a traitor, they were slapped in the face.

Someone mentioned it again in the court. Zhao Shiqian raised his hand and pressed it down. He shook his head to show that he didn't want to hear it. When he was drunk with Zhao Deng at night, he said it with a sigh. "I thought she couldn't help it before, but she really didn't want to come back."

Zhao Dengdao said, "the state of Qi will certainly keep her in strict custody. If she can escape, she will come back. Her home is here, her elder brother is here, and her younger sister is here. How can she not want to come back?"

Zhao Shiqian patted his thigh with a wry smile. "Xiushan, I ask you where Xiushan is? Less than a hundred li away from Dingzhou City, Zhu GuanLiang took her out. There were only ten people around her. Could she kill Ji Yue and not escape? I didn't believe in her treason before, but sometimes when the facts are in front of me, I can't help but believe it. "

Zhao Deng was flustered and said, "brother, think twice. If Zixi is treason, why hasn't Qi done anything to Zhao? After all, what he saw with his own eyes may not be true. What's more, he heard from the population of Xianyu that he suffered a loss from Xianyu. Do you want to continue to believe what they said? "

Zhao Deng was eager to defend Zhou Leping. When he was worried, he would not choose his words. Only when he blurted out his words did he feel that he had made a mistake.

Zhao Shi glared at him, patted him on the shoulder for a long time, and stood up. "I know you always resented me for making peace with me. If I had not agreed to make peace with Xianyu, wouldn't Zhou Leping be like this?"

It seems that everything he does is wrong. The courtiers have complaints in their hearts. He knows that the common people have complaints against him. He also knows it. But he didn't expect that his own brother would have the same idea as those people.

Zhou Leping, yes, she is right. At the beginning, he did not listen to her, which led to the situation. However, he also took the overall situation into consideration. No one liked the war years after years. At that time, he had no other choice. He was kind to everyone with his relatives. Now that such a thing happened, he became a sinner through the ages and would be reviled by thousands of people.

Zhao Deng hastily admitted his mistake and said, "my brother didn't mean that. Brother Huang forgives me. It was my brother who made a slip of the tongue for a while. My brother..."

"Well, you're right. It's all my fault. But now that things have become like this, I have to find a way to recover it. I can't destroy Zhao's Centennial foundation."

Zhao Deng looked at Zhao Shiqian and his eyes. For a moment, he suddenly felt that Zhao Shiqian was very strange.

The emperor drank with King Rui until the time of the emperor's death. When the palace was forbidden, King Rui lived in the palace. The emperor took his royal highness and said his ambition. King Rui sent the emperor back to his bedroom. Suddenly, he heard the emperor murmur sorry. I don't know who he said it to.

On the way to the emperor's palace, Zhou Le'an thought, "I'm sorry, 90% of it is for Zhou Leping. What's wrong with her?

Zhao Shiqian had drunk too much and had already gone to bed. When bi was guarding at the entrance of the bedroom hall and saw Zhou Le'an, he went up to stop people, "madam, the emperor has stopped, or would you like to come back tomorrow?"

"This palace is here to deliver the emperor's wake-up wine and soup. The Emperor didn't order that no one would visit this time, did he? Get out of the way

When Bi's pestle was there, "Niang Niang..."

Zhou lean took out some momentum and looked at Shi Bi with a smile, "when does he Gonggong mean to represent the emperor? The Emperor didn't say that he would not let the palace in. What's the meaning of his father-in-law stopping here? Is it hard to come true? It's natural for me to see the emperor in this palace. I want to see who dares to stop me today! "

When bi was just a eunuch, he didn't dare to stop Zhou Le'an without the emperor's imperial edict. Finally, he had to say "forgive me" to get out of the way.

Zhou Le'an personally went in with the hangover soup, put all the people outside the door, went to the Dragon couch, looked at Zhao Shiqian's sleeping face in his dream, and gently stroked his cheek, "Emperor..."

Zhao Shiqian's eyelashes trembled slightly, but he didn't mean to wake up.

"The Emperor..." she called again, "get up and have a bowl of soup, then go to sleep, Emperor."

Zhao Shiqian raised his hand, pinched his eyebrows, and slowly opened his eyes.

Zhou Le'an said with a sweet smile, "emperor, if you drink too much wine, you will have a headache. Get up and drink a bowl of wine soup before you go to sleep."

Zhao Shiqian is still sober. When he opens his eyes, he takes Zhou Le'an as Zhou Leping. He stares at her eyes and pushes her away. "You... How can you come back? Aren't you dead? Why did you come back? "

Zhou Le'an was pushed to the ground, and his hangover soup spilled all over his body. He looked at Zhao Shiqian with more horror, "what's the matter with you, emperor? I live well. How can I die? "

Zhao Shiqian staggered down from the bed, pointed to Zhou Le'an on the ground for a long time, then squatted down again, holding her shoulders and shaking, "why do you want to betray me? Do you like Zhu GuanLiang? How can you fall in love with other men without my permission? " This next week, Zhou Le'an reacts. Zhao Shiqian regards her as Zhou Leping, so he pushes her away. That's why he hates her so much“ I'm back. Isn't the emperor happy? Does the emperor really believe in my treason and don't want me back? " She simply took advantage of Zhao Shiqian's strength to see if she could get something out of his mouth. Zhao Shiqian was stunned after hearing her words, and then shook his head, "I... I don't believe it. But the spies sent to Qi State said that you went in and out with Zhu GuanLiang, and became his apprentice, and even said that you were sleeping in the same room. How can you make me believe you? The spies I sent are dead one after another, and the killers I sent are not heard from. If you don't betray your country, how can those people... "Zhou Le'an understood everything in a moment. It turned out that the killers were sent to kill Zhou Leping, and he hoped Zhou Leping would die more than anyone else.
