Emperor Rules Family while I Rule the Country

C51

After Zhou Lean received the Queen's gift, he personally went to the Cheng De Palace to thank the Queen.

Qiu Rong smiled as he invited her to sit down, "I still remember how your sister used to like bringing you to find me to play. At that time, you were still young, but who would have thought that we would be together in the palace serving the emperor."

Zhou Lean said, "Chenqie never thought that such a day would come. Now that I have entered the palace, I would have to seek the guidance of Empress in a bad place."

She used to love to cry, but wherever Zhou Leping went, she would follow. She was obedient, did not have a temper, and was also timid.

After chatting with the Queen for a while, the two of them continued with their interactions. Seeing that the Queen was getting impatient, Zhou Lean got up and took his leave, "It's getting late, so I won't be staying here to disturb the Queen. The Emperor still needs to go to De An Palace for his meal.

The empress had a very appropriate smile. "Your majesty is more important. Since that's the case, I won't keep you any longer."

After seeing Zhou Lean out, Qiu Rong was so patient that he even sent him away. Finally, he couldn't hold his temper anymore and started smashing things.

"Who does she think she is? She's only been in the palace for a few days and she's already showing off in front of me. What qualifications does she have to be a small benefactor?"

"Don't be impatient, Empress is fond of you, the Emperor doesn't necessarily love you because she likes you. The Master Lin is famous in the imperial court, you are also a noble empress, and even Miss Xia Fu had entered the imperial palace, these things made the Emperor wary of you, and she is Zhou Leping's younger sister. If the Emperor wants to use Zhou Leping to deal with the Empress, he naturally has to give her some sweets for Zhou Family."

"I know, but I just can't stand her complacent expression." Qiu Rong stood up while holding Zizi Bai's hand, "What do you want to say in the honorable room?"

"Last night, he shouted at the emperor three times and was scolded to leave in the end. The emperor is staying at De'an Palace. There's no need to go to court today, it's almost noon before he leaves."

"Leaving at noon?"

Every time he came to her side, he would be eager to sit down for a while before leaving. He actually stayed in De An Palace until noon.

"Pay careful attention to the movements in De An Palace. I don't want anyone to be over there."

"Yes."

The empress couldn't come out, and the imperial concubines' children couldn't be kept either. It wasn't hard to guess the reason after thinking about it.

The harem was a place where a mother could rely on to gain a foothold. Having a prince was better than anything, but the emperor had never given her the chance to do so. Since she couldn't have it, no one else could.

That night, the emperor arrived as promised. Zhou Lean placed the good wine and good dishes on the table.

Zhao Shiqian took her hand and sat down on the table, he looked at the dishes on the table and said, "I was delayed by a temporary matter, I did not ask you to wait for a long time did I?"

Zhou Lean shook his head, "As long as I can wait until I come to the Emperor, this concubine will be willing no matter how long I have to wait."

She lowered her head with a blush, her shy and timid look pleased Zhao Shiqian. He waved his hand to dismiss the palace maid and pulled her into his embrace, "I heard that you went to see the empress today?"

"Chenqie has been bestowed with a noble title and the Empress has sent a congratulatory gift. Chenqie should be thanking you."

"Alright, if you have nothing else to do, then walk around with the empress."

This sentence seemed to have a deeper meaning.

The emperor favored her and even allowed her to walk around with the empress. It was probably to increase their relationship, but it was actually to anger the empress.

It seemed that the Empress did not live a good life in the palace. Seeing how the Emperor was so envious of her, it was no wonder that she did not have any children.

The emperor had also stayed in De An Palace for the night, the people from the service room were squatting at the door, when they heard the commotion inside, they would pinch their throats to remind the emperor, the emperor's emotions were stirred up and they called out the wrong name, Zhou Lean heard the sharp voice of the eunuch outside, and suddenly felt like they were mocking him.

Qi Si finished his errand and finally returned from the army camp, but he brought a person with him.

A few days ago, she had been caught in a trap when she was chasing down a group of fresh deserters. The arrow had pierced into her leg and the arrow was poisonous. The military doctor was unable to treat it and could only bring it back to the capital.

didn't even have time to inform Zhou Leping before he brought her back.

Zhou Leping called Zhu Guanliang over to let the general see his injuries, he checked his pulse and wounds, then frowned, "This poison is even stronger than the poison that struck the general last time. His injuries caused him to be delayed in the army camp for a few days, and on the way back, he took another few days.

Zhou Leping hated people who speak half-way, "What are you talking about now? What's going on? "

"The poison has already sunk deep into my bones. If I want to keep my life, I can only sever my leg."

"Saw the leg?" She looked at Zhu Guanliang with disbelief, "Aren't you the genius doctor? You can cure me of my poison, but you must have a way too. Think of another way, he is a soldier, and will always be at the forefront of the battle when he kills the enemy. He has contributed greatly in the past, so he cannot afford to lose his legs. "

Zhu Guanliang expressed his helplessness, "If it was brought over a few days ago, perhaps there would be a possibility of his recovery from the poison, and even if I were to treat him now, I would need some time to concoct the antidote, and if the poison were to spread throughout my body during this period, even if there was an antidote, it would be useless.

"If the general is really doing this for his own good, he might be able to keep his life after cutting off a leg before the poison spreads to his internal organs."

If he didn't cut his leg, then it was very likely that he would have died before the antidote was developed. Fortunately, he had survived, and his leg was also a useless leg.

"General, you should make your choice earlier. If you're too late, you'll die."

Qi Si cursed from the side, "Damn it, these bastards that only know how to use poison, I will kill them all sooner or later!"

Qi Miao pondered for a moment, and agreed with Zhu Guanliang's suggestion, "This is also for his own good, losing a leg to follow is better than losing a life."

Zhou Leping was still hesitating, "He is a general, dignity is more important to him than anything else. Compared to losing his life, losing a leg might be even more difficult for him to accept."

Qi Si was shocked, "That general means... No more treatment? "

She gritted her teeth and turned her back to him. "Wake him up. Let him decide whether he lives or dies."

She could not make this choice for him. She was afraid that he would regret it. If he did, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Qi Miao went up and woke her up, then told her about the current situation and let her decide whether she wanted her legs or her life.

The participant looked at Zhou Leping, "Does the general think that this subordinate is a coward?"

She turned to him and shook her head. "None of my soldiers are cowards!"

"In the future .. We can't follow the general and attack the enemy anymore. "

"What are you crying for!" "A man doesn't shed tears, it's just a leg. If you dare to die for me, then you're a coward!"
