"You returned victoriously. That was the day when I saw him smile the most happily ever since we married. When you returned to the palace to complete your mission, the Emperor saw your face .."

As if he got back to the city, the smile on Qiu Rong's face became deeper and deeper, "That is also the first time I've seen the emperor sigh the most in the past few years. Even when the palace maid accidentally raised your face, she frowned, wishing that she could kill the person who spoke out on the spot."

She didn't mention a single word of Zhao Shiqian's loathing for her current face, but every word she spoke had that meaning.

Zhou Leping didn't even know when Qiu Rong had hated her to this extent.

Hate the fact that Zhao Shiqian had her in his heart? Not to mention that her face was ruined now, even if it was like before, the relationship between her and Zhao Shiqian was only that of a Monarch and a subject.

She then said, "This subject knows that this subject's current appearance is very scary, but this subject and the emperor are not at odds. Moreover, this subject is wearing a mask, so even if the emperor is disgusted with me, I won't be able to see this face."

Qiu Rong lowered his face, "Sometimes, the loathing towards a person comes from the heart. Even if it is to cover one's face, when one sees her, they would still involuntarily loathe her."

"Then, Empress, what should I do?"

"You shouldn't have come back from the battlefield."

So it was because he wanted her to die.

"This official has returned." She stood up, ready to leave, "Except for myself, no one can decide whether I live or die."

Qiu Rong looked at her. "What about the emperor?"

"If the monarch wishes this subject to die, this subject will have no choice but to die. But this subject believes that the Emperor will not kill anyone useful to him."

Qiu Rong clapped his hands and laughed, "What a great king wants this subject to die." His gaze swept past Zhou Leping, and then spoke to Zhao Shiqian who was behind her. "Your Majesty, have you heard what the general has said from the bottom of his heart?"

Zhou Leping turned around. It was unknown when Zhao Shiqian had arrived, but she hurriedly bowed and greeted, "This subject greets Your Majesty."

Zhao Shiqian's gaze swept across her body, and it was unknown what he was looking at, but after pausing for a while, he said, "You're excused."

Qiu Rong invited Zhao Shiqian to sit, and as they poured tea, he joked, "Did the emperor hear that Chenqie invited the general over? So he came over to eavesdrop on the conversation between Chenqie and the general?"

"Whisper? What whispers do you have between you? Could it be that we are discussing how to defeat the enemy? "

Zhao Shiqian was obviously smiling, but his words made people shiver.

Qiu Rong's face stiffened as he kneeled on the ground, "Your majesty, your concubine cannot afford to speak like this. The harem cannot be used for political purposes, and your concubine doesn't dare to discuss this with the Chief General.

"Sisters?" Zhao Shiqian cut her off, "You were sisters in the past, and she is now a Chief General. She is our most capable subject.

Qiu Rong secretly clenched his teeth, Zhou Leping was thinking if he should say something to avoid the suspicion, but before he could open his mouth, he heard Zhao Shiqian mention her again, "Come out with me."

"Yes." After answering, she turned and followed Zhao Shiqian out. Even when she walked out of the Cheng De Palace, she still felt goosebumps all over her body.

If her gaze was lethal, the empress would have already seen two holes in her body.

"I would like to ask you, what do you think about disarmament?"

Zhou Leping kept following him from beginning to end. Five steps behind him, the moment he opened his mouth, she had to bow and clasp her fists as she replied, "If this subject agrees to disarm, then this subject will be no different from those ungrateful and despicable people. These are all brothers that had lived on this subject's battlefield.

She didn't think much of what she said. She just said what she thought in her heart. After she finished speaking, she felt that there was a grudge between them that hinted at the Emperor.

Zhao Shiqian walked in front of her with his dragon face. She couldn't see whether or not he was angry, but she would definitely admit her wrongs.

"Your subject is sentenced to death, your majesty!"

Zhao Shiqian stopped and turned around to look at her, his face had a relaxed and peaceful expression, without a hint of anger, "What crime have you committed?"

He didn't seem to think that her words had offended him, so if she confessed now, wouldn't she jump into the fire herself?

"This official .."

"Is our measure in your heart so small?"

"The Emperor is benevolent and benevolent, he oversees mountains and seas, this subject .." She gritted her teeth and accepted the offer, "This subject is narrow-minded and thinks nothing of the prince."

"Zhou Leqi has taught you well, you have learnt the essence of the tactful and tactful way of speaking about government affairs."

Did he call her here just to have a chat with her? You don't mind her face now?

"This subject is terrified."

"This Emperor didn't notice your fear." Zhao Shiqian took a step towards her. "You should go back and carefully consider disarmament."

It seemed that he had to do it.

She took a step back and felt the oppressive aura coming from his body. Only then did she realize that the youth from back then had already grown into a monarch.

Emperor, General, he had his concerns and she had her considerations.

Thinking about those soldiers who died tragically on the battlefield, she became a bit emboldened and straightened up, "My army's soldiers have not received military pay for almost two years, their families have wives and children, and some are even their only sons. Father and mother even pointed at their military pay, and now, not only can they not receive military pay, but this official has personally said that I want to revoke them .. This subject is unable to do so. "
