Zhou Leping was stunned, then he frantically shook his head, "Even if I were to give this subject ten guts, this subject still would not dare to say that the Emperor is guilty. "Spirit …"

As soon as she tensed up, her mind went blank, forgetting to say anything good. In the end, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Long live the Emperor!"

Zhao Shiqian did not know whether to laugh or cry, he pressed her arm and told her to sit down, "We do not have any intentions of blaming you.

She suddenly calmed down, shaking her head. "This subject doesn't mean that."

"Yesterday, when Le An saw me, he asked me if there was anything wrong with my body. He said that I had to find an imperial physician to take my pulse." He pinched the space between his eyebrows. "I know that it's normal for me to have no children after so many years, but I really have no problems."

Le An was smart, he actually understood what she wanted to say.

This made her feel even more awkward. She just sat there, not knowing what to do, wishing she could drown in the lotus pond beside her.

"Do you know why I haven't had an heir for so many years?"

Her head was almost buried under the table, "This subject … "I don't know."

"The year when the Royal Father passed away, your father Zhou Xuan also died on the battlefield. That year, when we ascended the throne, when you joined the army, even though the Queen Mother was the mother of a nation, she was still just a young woman. To meet with such a great change, aside from crying, all of the burdens were placed on us.

"Later on, when we married Qiu Rong, Lin Jing ascended the sky and became the nation's overlord with a single step. We had originally thought that as long as we held onto the power, dealing with Lin Jing would not be a problem, but things are not as simple as we thought. If we want to suppress Lin Jing, we can only push others. "

He sighed in frustration, "We can't let the empress get pregnant, so we can only favor her and have a few children, but none of them can be saved, and without exception they are all dead from birth. We know that it was the empress, but we have no proof, and because of Lin Jing's power in the imperial court, we have to bear the consequences for so many years."

As he finished speaking, he could only laugh bitterly. "I've always felt that I, the Emperor, was a failure."

If the empress couldn't bear a child, then the women in the harem wouldn't be able to conceive one. In order to consolidate her position in the harem, the empress really did use every means at her disposal.

Wouldn't that mean that Le An was also in danger?

Zhao Shiqian knew what she was thinking and said, "We will protect Le An properly. This time, we won't let the empress succeed."

Previously, she had told Le An that the harem was dangerous, but she refused to listen. She insisted on coming in, and now, she could only follow along, feeling worried every day.

She was now in the limelight of the palace, and not long later, there would be news of her coming. When that time came, Zhao Shiqian would not be able to keep her tied to him at all times, he was afraid of nothing.

But at least one thing was certain, the Emperor did not have that kind of disease. It was very likely that Zhao Deng was not born with it.

She went back to tell Zhu Guanliang that Zhao Deng had been frightened and asked him if he could treat it.

Zhu Guanliang looked at her strangely, "General even knows about the Duke's matters?"

"Who cares if I know or not, I'm just scared. Do you have any way of treating her?"

"Do your best."

"You have to do your best again, can't you give me a proper answer?"

He said, "The Prince's Mansion has sent someone to retrieve the medicine today, so we can try it for a few days. If it still won't work, then we can only think of another method."

"What method?"

"Acupuncture."

"Acupuncture? Za... "Where?"

"Of course it's the victim."

No wonder her thoughts were so dirty, Zhou Leping imagined that scene in his head. His heart ached, but at the same time, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

Zhu Guanliang saw the corner of her mouth raise, looking like she wanted to laugh but was doing her best to restrain it, and frowned, "General, what are you thinking about?"

"Nothing, nothing, just keep busy. Oh right, in two days, Qiu Shou, if there's nothing else, you can come with me. If you get injured, there will be people who can treat you in time."

"Alright."

"Keep working, this general won't disturb you."

Aside from New Year's Eve, Qiu Shou was the grandest event of the year, and the amount of people participating was not few. Amongst the nobles and nobles of the capital, those with the ability to draw the bow had also arrived.

According to their location, the Emperor would choose one or two more concubines to accompany him, but this time, at Qiu Shou, the Emperor only ordered the Empress to accompany Zhou Lean.

Since ancient times, there had not been many people who could accompany the Emperor out in the autumn. Zhou Lean was the first in the history of the empire to have such an honor.

The empress did not look well, but the atmosphere was bad. She forced a smile on her face along the way, bearing it with great difficulty.

Zhou Leping's horse was General Lin Zhong who had accompanied her to life and death, carrying her on his back to escape from death. His name also carried a lot of meaning, it was called victory, riding it, riding it could win every battle.

Victory was a pure Ferghana horse. Its fur was black and red, and the muscles on its body were well-proportioned. It was very beautiful.

Initially, Zhao Deng had his eyes on hers, but he had recognized her as his master. After trying a few times, he wasn't even able to touch the saddle, let alone ride on it.

In the end, they could only choose the girl with the victory. The sister with the victory was called Victorious Return, and she was one year younger than Victorious Return. Although they were all born in the same mother's womb, they were all smaller in size compared to Victory.

"Zhao Deng didn't flatter Zhou Leping at all, the name he gave it was' Victory and Victory '." How much do you want to win, then, if its mother were to be reborn, what would you call it? "

Since I won the battle, I have not been defeated, and have managed to escape from it several times with my life. At that time, the victory was me who delivered the baby, and we had a deep relationship. Other than me, there is no one else in this world who could climb onto its back.

Zhao Deng had already experienced this before, and almost threw him to death a few times.

However, he was not the only one who suffered from this loss. Qi Si had originally fallen even more miserably than he did, but now when he thought back to it, his entire body still felt a faint pain.

Zhu Guanliang pulled on the reins and followed behind Zhou Leping at a leisurely pace. The horse that he was riding was even smaller than Victorious Return, and although it looked like a big horse, it was only two years old and its personality was that of a small horse. When there was yummy grass on the side of the road, it would stop and enjoy itself.

Zhu Guanliang was not in a hurry. If it wanted to eat, he would wait for it to finish eating before hurrying on its way.

Zhou Leping stopped and waited for him. Seeing him so relaxed, Zhou Leping became anxious for him, "How about I change the horse for you?"
