Emperor Rules Family while I Rule the Country

Zhou Zheng's wife was told to kneel on the ground after entering the palace, to look at Lin Jing, and finally to look at the Emperor.

Lin Jing walked forward and spoke to her in a gentle voice that sounded like he was discussing something, "Madam Wang, I know you are forced to do this, but don't worry, the Emperor is in charge of your affairs here, he won't let you seek justice. Just tell us frankly who the man is, and I will find you for whatever reason."

Just look at what he said. There was even some threat in the coaxing. It was no wonder that the Elders of both dynasties could make one's heart beat faster with just a few casual words and a warning look in their eyes.

Madam Wang lowered his head, his hands clutching his clothes, his lips trembling, but he was still unable to say a word.

Zhou Leping sighed lightly, walked over and squatted in front of her, "Just relax and say what you want, don't be afraid of anything, I am here."

"Chief General …" Lin Jing swept his eyes across her, "Are you trying to console me, or are you trying to threaten me? Everyone knows the reason behind Madam Wang's appearance here. Shouldn't the general be hiding from her at this time? "

This old fellow actually went back and forth, it was clearly him secretly threatening her, just as Zhou Leping was about to open his mouth to refute her, Zhao Shiqian suddenly spoke out to stop her, "Brother Kong is right, you can withdraw first."

"Your majesty!"

Zhao Shiqian looked at her with his bright eyes, "Step down!"

Zhou Leping was helpless, he could only bow and retreat to the side.

"Madam Wang, I want to ask you, did you work with Zhou Zheng to steal the secret information from the General's Estate? Who is the man that often meets you?

This chain of questions caused the Madam Wang to be unable to resist. She stammered, "This humble woman … "This humble woman …" After that, he just couldn't continue.

Zhao Shiqian was annoyed by this matter, but seeing Madam Wang like this made him even angrier. He furrowed his brows and looked at Lin Jing, "Secretary of State, what does this mean?"

Lin Jing did not expect the woman to be so unenlightened after being beaten up, but she could not waste such a good chance, so she asked Zhou Leping to leave after seeing that he was afraid.

Zhou Leping clenched his teeth, "Did she see that I was scared, or did Master Lin use some other method to threaten me? You were afraid that I would see through it, so you intentionally sent me away? "

Lin Jing cupped his hands towards the Emperor in front of him, "Your majesty, even if I were to eat the bear heart leopard, I would not dare to threaten her. I only want her to speak the truth."

"You didn't dare to threaten them in public, so you decided to hit them in private before calling them over, right?"

Lin Jing laughed faintly, "Why is General so excited? "Could it be that I'm afraid …"

Zhou Leping could not stand his weird tone and could not hold it in any longer, so she pointed at him and said, "What am I afraid of? If I am straight, I am not afraid of the shadow slanting, what do I have to be afraid of? "

Her conscience was clear, but others did not know that she did not know how to restrain her edge. In the eyes of others, it was just a futile attempt to argue when she was about to die, so it was really inappropriate for her to stay.

Zhao Shiqian stood up, his gaze sweeping past the Madam Wang, and landed on Zhou Leping's body, "This matter can end here for today, everyone can temporarily put Zhou Zheng in prison, and then lock him up, we will send people to interrogate him. In order to avoid suspicion, you can stay in General's Estate for the next few days."

"Your Majesty …" She wanted to refute a few more words.

But Zhao Shiqian did not plan to listen to her anymore. Two people came in to take Madam Wang away, while another two came in to ask her to go out.

The Emperor told her to stay in the General's Estate because he wanted her to stay under house arrest.

The guards outside the General's Estate had been replaced with imperial guards, and the General's Estate was encircled like a tightly packed bucket.

Even Zhou Leqi was ordered not to go out. This was a serious matter, before the suspicions of Madam Wang and Zhou Leping were investigated, Zhou Leping's every move was closely monitored.

In the course of the afternoon, she had smashed two tables and eight stools, but she still could not get her anger out of her heart. She decided to strike the granite table under the pavilion.

Qu Tan and Chang Feng anxiously stared at her, seeing her raise her hand, aiming at the center of the table, wanting to smash it with her palm. Taking a deep breath, Qu Tan wanted to rush forward to hug her, but someone already grabbed onto Zhou Leping's hand a step ahead of her.

Zhou Leping still did not strike down.

"The stupidest thing in this world is to get angry and do the thing that hurts you. If the general's palm strikes and the stone table doesn't shatter, your bones will shatter first."

Zhou Leping was so angry that his head hurt, he treated the stone table as if Lin Jing had heavily kicked it a few times.

Qu Tan and Chang Feng heaved a sigh of relief. With Zhu Guanliang here, the general should be fine.

"If Lin Jing wanted to frame the general, he must have planned this early on. Now that everything is ready, he can only wait for the general to take the bait."

"I just did not expect him to continue using Zhou Zheng as a spy to frame me. Zhou Zheng's wife must have been threatened by him, it's a pity that I can't go anywhere else, I can't go to the Sky Prison to find out."

"Right now, the crux of the problem is your majesty. If your majesty trusts the general, you will definitely not let Lin Jing do as he pleases. Since the general is currently being confined to the General's Estate, he can only rely on your majesty."

It also meant that if the Emperor trusted her, he wouldn't have placed her under house arrest.

"The Emperor has personally interrogated him. Without Lin Jing blocking his way, I believe that the Madam Wang will tell the Emperor the truth."

Zhu Guanliang slightly parted his lips and laughed, "Are you that confident?"

"What else can I do?"

He raised his head and looked at the fiery clouds in the horizon, sighing, "Hoping to others is the fastest way to seek death."

Zhou Leping had understood this principle since a very young age. The first principle that her father had taught her was this, especially when she was in prison, hoping that people would lose their will to fight. No matter what, the person she trusted the most could only be herself.

However, regardless of how they listened to the logic, how many of them could actually live their lives following the truth they had heard before?

She believed in Zhao Shiqian.

He believed it with an indescribable confidence.

Zhu Guanliang shook his head, and sighed as he answered the questions. In the end, he didn't even bother to speak to her, and walked back with his hands behind his back.

Zhou Leping was confused, "Where are you going?"

He said, "Go back and pack up. In two days, this General's Estate … It should be gone, right? "

"Zhu Guanliang!" Behind her, she shouted, "You're a cruel and unscrupulous person! Are you so sure this general will die? I will definitely live well! "
