C177 It Turned out to be an Old Friend

0Although Wen Chenghao was a civil servant, he also came from a poor background. Therefore, his physical fitness was pretty good. Like Zhou Qu, he rode a horse.    

    

From Capital City to Zhang Zhu's place, it would take three days to walk on the official road, but to walk on the small road, it would only take two days. Zhou Qu asked Wen Chenghao, "What do you think, Sir Geng?"    

    

"Let's take the official road! After all, it's safe. " Wen Chenghao looked at the lush forest and the wide road on the side and directly said without thinking.    

    

Zhou Qu nodded.    

    

Wen Chenghao looked at Zhou Qu and said, "Speaking of which, this should be near General Zhou's hometown right? "What family do you have in General Zhou's house?"    

    

Hearing this, Zhou Qu's expression changed. If he went back, he would have let Wen Chenghao know about the matter of him going back just two days ago, so he just said, "When the time comes, let's go look at the case of Zhang Zhu."    

    

Wen Chenghao nodded, but that gaze made Zhou Qu frown. He kept feeling that Wen Chenghao might have noticed something, or maybe Ann Tan noticed something, so he made Wen Chenghao stare at him.    

    

If that's really the case...    

    

Just as Zhou Qu was thinking this, Wen Chenghao's voice sounded, "General Zhou, what's wrong?"    

    

Zhou Qu turned around and saw Wen Chenghao smiling at him. He said, "What is it?"    

    

Wen Chenghao said, "It's nothing. I just asked General Zhou a question and couldn't hear his reply. I just felt it was strange."    

    

"What did you ask me?"    

    

Wen Chenghao asked again, "I heard that General Zhou has a son, but I don't know where is General Zhou's wife?"    

    

Hearing this, Zhou Qu's expression couldn't help but change, and he continued, "During the last war... "He's gone."    

    

Zhou Qu's voice was calm. Wen Chenghao's eyes narrowed slightly, but Zhou Qu had already said, "Alright, it's getting late. Let's continue on our way!"    

    

As the days passed one by one, the autumn deepened. Lee Wanning was still the same as before, living a boring life every day.    

    

After being Consort Yi, Chiang Yifeng came to Lee Wanning's place just like before. Ann Tan didn't know why, but after bestowing Chiang Yifeng the title of Consort Yi, he let her serve him every night. Lee Wanning wasn't angry, but Chiang Yifeng was terrified.    

    

At this moment, in another part of the harem.    

    

When Zhou Huai woke up, he started to cry incessantly. He knew what he had lost, he didn't even have the face to see Zhou Qu.    

    

He couldn't even be considered alone anymore.    

    

There were also some eunuchs who had just been castrated beside him, but they had all accepted this fact. They wouldn't be like Zhou Huai, crying and making a ruckus.    

    

Zhou Huai was assigned to the Raccoon Clothing Department.    

    

Life there was no better than in the Xin Dynasty, and many palace maids and eunuchs could only walk out when they reached their age.    

    

Zhou Huai did not have much strength and did not like people. He had already suffered a lot of beatings in the past two days.    

    

He even wanted to die.    

    

As he stood by the well, he was too slow to jump.    

    

He didn't want to die yet.    

    

Just as he was standing there, a voice called out, "That, newcomer!"    

    

Zhou Huai turned his head and saw that it was his aunt from the Raccoon Department. She said, "Hurry up and send the clothes to Lady Consort Yi."    

    

Zhou Huai was stunned. His aunt kicked him and said, "What are you waiting for? "Hurry up and go!"    

    

Zhou Huai immediately took his clothes and left.    

    

Aunt told him the address, but Zhou Huai couldn't find Lady Consort Yi's place for a long time. He was walking in circles in a hurry when he heard a voice from in front of him, "How dare you!" Even after seeing the emperor, you still didn't kneel!? "    

    

Hearing the sound, Zhou Huai immediately knelt down, "Greetings... "We pay our respects to the Emperor!"    

    

Ann Tan didn't answer. When he got up and was about to leave, he felt something and slowly turned his head around.    

    

The head of the young eunuch pressed against her, and his entire body seemed to tremble lightly.    

    

But that look...    

    

Ann Tan said, "Lift your head up and let me see."    

    

Hearing this, the young eunuch trembled even more violently, but he did not move.    

    

Ann Tan's eyes immediately darkened. The person beside him said, "You little eunuch, can't you hear what the emperor is saying?"    

    

Zhou Huai slowly raised his head after hearing that.    

    

When Ann Tan saw him, his expression immediately changed. He continued, "What's your name?"    

    

"Servant …" "Servant Zhou Huai."    

    

Ann Tan raised his eyebrows and looked at the person beside him. He said, "Bring him to my chamber!"    

    

Zhou Huai didn't know if he did something wrong, but he heard that the emperor would kill people without blinking his eyes. What he did …    

    

While Zhou Huai was thinking nervously, someone in front said, "Let's go."    

    

Zhou Huai pointed at his own clothes and said, "These clothes are meant to be delivered to Lady Consort Yi's place …"    

    

Hearing that, Su Ann's expression did not change. He looked at the person beside him and said, "Help him deliver the clothes."    

    

The man nodded, and Su Ann led Zhou Huai to the palace.    

    

The late emperor had done this sort of thing before, but it was all because of the little palace maid that he had taken a fancy to. Bringing an eunuch along like this …    

    

Su Ann felt like laughing, but in the end, he didn't. Just like Ann Tan had said, he brought Zhou Huai to Ann Tan's chamber.    

    

There was only Ann Tan inside. When he saw Zhou Huai, Ann Tan's eyes slightly raised before he continued, "Su Ann, you are dismissed."    

    

Su Ann naturally listened to him and even closed the door before he left.    

    

Zhou Huai's entire body was trembling. The life he had not lived in peace recently had made him tense up all the time. How could he not be nervous when the man standing in front of him was the most powerful man in the world?    

    

While Zhou Huai was looking at him, Ann Tan had already walked in front of him. He looked down at Zhou Huai and said, "I feel that you are very similar to a person."    

    

Zhou Huai was stunned for a moment, then he kneeled down.    

    

Ann Tan raised his eyebrows and said, "Zhou Qu, do you know him?"    

    

The world only knew General Zhou. Zhou Qu's name was only known to those in the upper echelons of the imperial court. That was why Ann Tan had directly mentioned it.    

    

And when he heard this name, Zhou Huai almost cried out. He said, "Your majesty …" That's my brother! "    

    

Hearing that, Ann Tan's expression couldn't help but change, but he was mentally prepared just now, so he wasn't too surprised.    

    

He took a deep breath and said, "Zhou Qu is a great general of the dynasty. If you randomly admit it, you will suffer!"    

    

Zhou Huai immediately cried and said, "He really is my big brother, I still have a second brother, three years ago he said from his home that he wants to go to the capital to take the exam and he still hasn't returned. My big brother left during the war and he never went back, two years ago, my sister-in-law also left home to find my big brother, two years ago when she left, I, I also came to look for my big brother!"    

    

Zhou Huai's voice was full of tears. Ann Tan looked at him and his eyes turned deeper as he said, "Tell me …" Your sister-in-law? "    

    

Zhou Huai continuously nodded and said, "My sister-in-law is from Xinlan Village. Her surname is Li. She just left home and took my nephew with her!"    

    

That should be right.    

    

When he first saw Zhou Huai, Ann Tan thought that he might be related to Zhou Qu. He didn't expect Ann Tan to be his own brother.    

    

Originally, he wanted to use him to do something, but if he knew Lee Wanning … In this harem, this was a troublesome matter.    

    

"Su Ann."    

    

Thinking about this, Ann Tan directly said.    

    

Su Ann hurriedly walked in. His face was completely calm, as if he didn't hear anything just now.    

    

Ann Tan said, "Take him away."    

    

He didn't say it explicitly, but Su Ann already understood what he meant. His expression couldn't help but change for a bit, then he said softly, "This servant understands."    

    

After saying that, Su Ann left with Ann Tan.    

    

At this moment, Lee Wanning was playing chess with him in her bedroom.    

    

These days were getting more and more boring. Previously, in the modern era, he had always been thinking that he could just sit there and not move, just eat and drink.    

    

Now that such a life was really with her, Lee Wanning realized that such a life wasn't good at all.    

    

Or because. In the past, there were still mobile phones, internet, games and so on. But here, there was nothing.    

    

Just as Lee Wanning was thinking this, a palace maid came in and said, "Empress, Eunuch Su is here."    

    

Lee Wanning frowned when she heard that. Why was Su Ann looking for her?    

    

Although it was strange, Lee Wanning still stood up. Su Ann had the usual smile on his face, but today's smile made Lee Wanning feel that it was eerie.    

    

Lee Wanning came forward and asked, "What's the matter?"    

    

Su Ann bowed to Lee Wanning seriously and said, "This servant pays his respects to the Empress."    

    

Lee Wanning nodded.    

    

Su Ann glanced at the person beside her. Lee Wanning understood and said to the person beside her, "All of you can leave."    

    

Only after the two of them were alone did Su Ann say, "Empress, this servant came to tell the Empress something."    

    

Lee Wanning nodded.    

    

Su Ann took a deep breath and said, "This servant actually knows about the matter between the Empress and General Zhou. Moreover, this servant just ran into a person with the Emperor. I believe the Empress should know him as well."    

    

Su Ann's words made Lee Wanning a little confused, but when she heard him talk about her relationship with Zhou Qu, she immediately frowned.    

    

Su Ann saw her reaction and said, "Empress isn't curious, who is that person?"    

    

"Who?" Lee Wanning's voice was calm.    

    

Su Ann laughed and said, "Zhou Huai, do you know this lady?"
