When Zhou Leping saw her this anxious, he asked himself, "What exactly happened? Did you tell me that I am helping you because of some threat or some other reason? Tell me!"

But Madam Wang kept his mouth shut, other than crying, he just apologized to her. He kneeled on the ground, looking at him, it was as if he wanted to immediately apologize.

If you have grudges against me in your heart, if you want to use this to take revenge on me, then I have nothing to say. But you have to know, Lin Jing is cunning and treacherous, the things he promised you are only to deceive you and you are the reason for it. His goal is me, once you admit it, Zhou Zheng will definitely die, and right now, the only person who can save Zhou Zheng is only me.

The possibility of the Madam Wang resenting her was not high, and she had definitely heard all of his words. She looked at the Madam Wang through the door, and only had a limited amount of time, so she was unable to speak earnestly while talking to him, "When you saw the Emperor in the imperial hall, you didn't say anything. I believe that you didn't want to help the evil, so you had to consider carefully whether it was black and white."

The Ministry of Justice Enforcer had already finished interrogating Zhou Zheng and brought his men over, she could not stay any longer, so with a soft sigh, she took a detour and left.

Zhao Deng was waiting for her outside, the two of them got into the carriage and the carriage driver left slowly. Zhao Deng asked anxiously, "How was it? What did the Madam Wang say? "

Zhou Leping shook his head, "Or are you not willing to say anything, what I'm curious about is, what kind of weakness did Lin Jing have from her that she would become like this?"

Zhao Deng also became silent, the two of them looked at each other, and then, Zhou Leping suddenly struck his fist on his palm, and said: "Xiao Wan!"

"Xiao Wan?" Zhao Deng was confused, "Who is Xiao Wan?"

"It's the daughter of Madam Wang and Zhou Zheng, I was just thinking that there's something amiss, if both of them were captured, then where did Xiao Wan go? She was only a five-year-old child. She couldn't possibly be alone at home, could she? "Hurry, turn around and go to Changping Street!"

She had ignored this question from the start and had indeed not thought about it in this regard. After being impatient for two days, she had been thinking about how to deal with Lin Jing.

The horse carriage rushed over to Chang Ping Street and found the home of Madam Wang. As expected, they did not see Xiao Wan, so they asked their neighbors and said that someone had picked him up a few days ago after the imperial court took him away.

There was no need to ask, just one glance was enough to tell that it was Lin Jing's doing. Right now, the most important thing for him to do was to find Xiao Wan, and as long as he could find Xiao Wan, there would be nothing left to threaten the Madam Wang with the injuries Lin Jing had suffered.

She made a decision in her heart, but she was still under house arrest, so she could only ask Zhao Deng for help.

Zhao Deng agreed without hesitation. Just as the two were about to return to the Duke's Palace, a group of soldiers carrying swords appeared out of nowhere and surrounded them. It seemed that they had been lying in ambush for a long time, preventing them from entering the alley.

Zhou Leping recognized the clothes these people were wearing. They were people from the Minister of War, so it was too late to say anything. Zhao Deng stood in front of her and bellowed, "How dare you! What kind of dog or cat dares block my path?"

Minister of War pushed through the crowd and came in, smiling at Zhao Deng as he cupped his hands, "Your highness, this official has ordered some men to arrest the suspect, I do not know if it was Your highness who came, I hope Your highness will forgive me!"

"You know it is This King, so why aren't you stepping aside!?" This King still has something to take care of. I don't have time to waste here with you, get your people to get out of the way! "

The Minister of War shook his head, and pointed to Zhou Leping behind Zhao Deng, "The Prince can leave, but the Chief General cannot."

Zhao Deng's face immediately changed, Zhou Leping walked out from behind him and openly revealed his real body, "This general is curious to ask, whose life did Master Shang Shu follow, and what kind of suspect are you capturing?"

Minister of War did not dare look at her face, and avoided the issue by answering, "Of course it is to capture the suspect who broke the nation's law, it is just that I did not expect to see Chief General here, if I remember correctly, isn't Chief General at the General's Estate right now?"

Zhou Leping clenched his teeth and laughed out, "In the end, everything is under the control of the elder, and he actually set a trap for me here. Fine, it's my bad luck, I'm willing to admit defeat!"

Minister of War did not dare to be arrogant in front of Zhao Deng, so he had to pretend to be happy and humble, and pretended to be respectful, "Chief General, don't blame me. This was an order from the Emperor, you can only blame yourself for it.

Zhao Deng glared at him while gritting her teeth, "If you want to capture her, arrest this duke as well. This king wants to see who has such big guts!"

"Your highness and official naturally wouldn't dare to arrest you. However, since we've met, may your highness follow me back to the palace to report to the emperor."

In the end, the two of them coincidentally met up with someone else, and it was even one of Lin Jing's subordinates.

A duke or Chief General, without a conviction, could not be escorted away by anyone. It was a grand show, and it was a grand show as well. Zhao Deng had been walking unhindered since he was born, and was suddenly brought along by someone as if he was a prisoner.

"This King knows the way to the palace better than any of you. There's no need for you to lead the way. This King has a carriage and a carriage driver."

The Minister of War was itching to go, so it saved them a lot of trouble, but Zhao Deng's request was not over yet. He got on the carriage and called the coachman to send a message to his home, saying that he would not be home for dinner tonight, and that he would not need to eat anything at home.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid …"

Minister of War was in a difficult situation. What he was afraid of was that if he called his men to go back and inform them, there would be more problems.

Zhao Deng stared at him, "What? This King is not your prisoner, so why can't you just send a message to my family? "

"That's not the case, it's just that the situation in front of us is really …"

"You are just a small Minister of War. Why does this king need you to teach me how to do things? So I followed you back to the palace to see the emperor. You think this king won't be able to cure you? "

In the palace, the most important thing to do was to have eyes, whoever who offended the one had to bear the consequences, the main objective would be Zhou Leping, so no matter what, Zhao Deng would follow him, regardless of what happened, it was already a foregone conclusion, he did not have to worry about anything else.

As for Zhao Deng, although he was usually sloppy and careless, he still had his ways of governing the Inner Palace. After the carriage driver returned, he told the princess about this matter, and since Qian Qian was coincidentally with the princess, the two of them could be considered as having a relationship of mutual friendship. Now, they would also gather together for a drink and chat, and begin to target Zhao Deng externally, but fortunately, this was the case, so Qian Qian was able to think of a way to find Zhu Guanliang.
