Quick Wear: No one can stop me from extending the life of the male supporting role

Chapter 148 General's Mansion 19

Jing Zhuo shook his head: "It wasn't me. Since I left the capital, I have never interfered with the capital's spy system. How could I have given the order? But I have investigated privately, and it was done by one of the branches of the Gu family, in order to prevent Gu Dalang from marrying a wife with a strong backer to suppress them."

"My father's leg and his career were lost for such a ridiculous reason?" Zhou Leping couldn't accept it.

Jing Zhuo tucked the quilt around Zhou Leping, but his hands were still frighteningly cold: "I don't want you to go to the battlefield. If possible, I would rather you never come to these places. But the development of things is not something I can control, such as the Gu family and the current emperor."

"What do you mean? Did the Gu family turn against us and support the emperor?" Zhou Leping looked at Jing Zhuo sarcastically, "It's you Daqi people who think Daliang is yours. How can there be things you can't control?"

Jing Zhuo sighed: "Le Ping, don't put me on the opposite side of you. I have never been your enemy. You don't have to bear a grudge against me because of the friction between our countries. From the beginning to the end, we were just born in different places, but we have no bad intentions towards each other."

"How do you know I have no bad intentions towards you? You are a spy from an enemy country and have been lurking around me for so long. How can you be sure that I don't hate you?"

"Leping."

Zhou Leping didn't want to listen to his excuses anymore: "You haven't mentioned the Gu family and the emperor yet."

Jing Zhuo could only answer his young master's questions and resolve his doubts: "Although the Gu family has surrendered to Da Qi, the population of the Gu family is too complicated. Everyone has their own ideas, and their family's internal struggles often ruin our big plans. For example, in the matter of supporting the prince, we actually recognized the eldest prince and successfully helped the eldest prince to rebel. The eldest prince is stupid and will definitely be used by us in the future. However, some short-sighted people in the Gu family said one thing in front of us and another behind our backs. They actually secretly handed over the old emperor's tiger talisman to the current emperor. Our plan was completely ruined."

Unexpectedly, what happened that night was far more exciting than what he had imagined: "Then, how did this emperor escape from your control?"

Jing Zhuo said, "Originally, in our plan, as long as Prince Ning helped the eldest prince, we would return Princess Anhe to him after the success, and he also promised to retire to the mountains and forests and never lead troops for Daliang in the future. But I didn't expect that the current emperor would directly imprison Princess Anhe to threaten Prince Ning. The deeds of Prince Ning when he was young are still circulating in our Da Qi. This is a very unstable factor that we cannot control."

Zhou Leping understood: "No wonder you didn't continue to attack Ning'an Pass after attacking two cities. It turns out that you are afraid of King Ning inside the pass!"

"Yes, my father is looking for King Ning's weakness."

"Your father?" Wasn't this guy sent to be trained as an undercover agent since he was young? How could he have a father? What parents would send their children to be spies?

"Yes, my father is Zhuo Feng, the commander-in-chief of Qi."

"What, your father is Zhuo Feng! You are his son!" Damn it, the people of Da Qi are so cruel that they can actually send their own sons to be undercover: "You...are you not welcomed at home?"

Jing Zhuo tilted his head and said, "I am highly regarded! The commander-in-chief of Qi's undercover in Daliang must be someone who is absolutely loyal to Qi, and my father's child is just the right person, so I was chosen."

But being trained as a spy from a young age, how hard it must be! No wonder Jing Zhuo is relatively slow in emotions, like a stone that can't be warmed up. No matter what methods the little girls around him who admire him use, he seems to not care at all. Being a spy naturally requires you to put aside all distractions.

"Your father was really cruel to you."

Jing Zhuo took out a stove from the side and put the bowl of medicine that had already cooled down on it to warm it up. "He is just my father. It doesn't matter what he does to me. By the way, in Da Qi, they all call me Zhuo Jing."

Zhuo Jing, my wife. Isn't this how you address your wife? This name... Marshal Zhuo is really good at writing.

"What about your mother? Wouldn't your mother object to you going undercover?"

"died."

"what!"

When talking about his mother, Jing Zhuo still had a calm and composed face, as if he was talking about a person who had nothing to do with him and could not affect his emotions at all: "It is best for those who are chosen to be spies to be orphans without parents. In order to prevent the blood relationship from affecting their minds and causing training failures. So when I was chosen, I was destined to never meet the Zhuo family again, and my mother was destined to die."

"Don't you hate it?"

Jing Zhuo was puzzled: "Why do you hate me?"

Zhou Leping was silent. Jing Zhuo had been poisoned by spy training since he was a child and suppressed his emotions to the extreme. He was the sharpest knife in Da Qi, but he was also an emotionless monster.

But, he would clearly frown and get angry before.

Zhou Leping looked at Jing Zhuo who was wrapping his hand tightly, stretched out his hand and slowly raised it, breaking free from the restraint, and gently touched Jing Zhuo's brow: "Will you forget me in the future, and when you talk about me again, will you say that I am just an ordinary Liang countryman?"

Jing Zhuo reached out, gently held the fingers on his forehead, and slowly placed his hand on his face: "I will not forget you. You are not in my mind, but you are in my heart." Mengpo soup can only clear my emotions for other people, but it cannot touch my memory of you.

"Come on, drink the medicine."

Zhou Leping looked at the bowl that was slightly steaming: "What kind of medicine is this?"

"The medicine that can save your life is not bitter."

To be honest, Zhou Leping didn't want to drink it. Based on his experience of taking medicine over the years, he knew that the less bitter the medicine was, the more toxic it was.

While the two were arguing, an urgent message came from outside. A letter was presented to Jing Zhuo: "The general is very happy."

Jing Zhuo waved his hand to let the man leave, and unfolded the letter. The content inside surprised his expression, which was not very active: "You are really courting death."

Zhou Leping no longer cared about the pain in his body, and struggled to get up to check: "What's wrong? Is there a spy in your Da Qi?"

Seeing Zhou Leping's excited look, Jing Zhuo's mouth curled up slightly: "It's not Da Qi, it's Daliang. Gu Song reported to the court that Prince Ning betrayed the country and sold out military secrets, which led to your capture. Now Prince Ning has been put in a prisoner car and escorted to Beijing."

"What! This bastard is crying thief. How could Prince Ning have access to the letter? Are the people handling the case all out of their minds?"

"The truth of the matter is not important. What's important is that this is the news that the Emperor of Daliang wants to hear." Jing Zhuo reached out and rubbed Zhou Leping's hair. "It doesn't matter. When the Qi army breaks through the gate of the capital, we can rescue Prince Ning."

Oh, what a big tone, breaking through the gate of the capital, isn't this directly destroying the country? However, according to the current situation, it is not far from the destruction of the country. Thinking of this, Zhou Leping felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart. It was not easy to have a genius who led the troops to fight, but he was targeted everywhere. This country may really have reached the end of the road.

No, we have to get our parents and cousin out. Otherwise, with their stubborn natures, they will have to be buried with this country.

Facing the medicine bowl that Jing Zhuo brought to him again, Zhou Leping could no longer care about himself. He still had to rely on this Daqi man to save his family. He drank all the medicine in the bowl.

After drinking the medicine, Zhou Leping felt dizzy and his scalp was tingling, constantly stimulating his brain. He endured the severe discomfort and asked, "What did you give me to drink?"

"Meng Po soup!"

Ah, this guy has this trick? Thinking randomly like this, Zhou Leping fell into a deep sleep.
