THE QUEEN'S TRUE LOVE

CHAPTER 75

He admitted that he often chatted with Jiu Wang, but there really was nothing between them. Peng Peng did not have any feelings for Jiu Wang.

"I know that I misunderstood us. You should know how much I've suffered."

And his relationship with Zhao. They were friends because they were experiencing the same situation because of Ying Yue. That's why they are always together to help each other heal their heart wounds and think of a plan to keep their loved ones.

Qi Sheng tried to calm him down, Peng Peng instead let out even harder and took advantage of the opportunity to hug Qi Sheng.

"Actually I'm just gonna give him a warning to let you know who you're supposed to count on."

"Do you still need to say it? I've thought about it. All I have to count on is you."

"You really think that way? As soon as this matter subsides, I'll make the sentence lighter."

Peng Peng instantly stopped mewek instantly and took advantage of the opportunity to invite Qi Sheng to his palace. He can come anytime. But Qi Sheng instantly stayed away, insisting on carrying out his promise to keep his distance.

Qi Sheng punished everyone by taking over their military power and taking over some of their property. Jiu Wang was demoted and fined 3 years of salary. Zhao immediately protested because his name was not mentioned earlier.

"How should you be punished? Do you have any job title or status? Do you have a house or land?"

"You didn't punish me but insulted and trampled on my pride. You made me..."

A few days later, Jiu Wang et al met at an ordinary place to discuss Qi Sheng's actions. It was clearly a warning to them that if Qi Sheng wanted to kill them, he could do it very easily.

Although he did not execute them, he took advantage of this opportunity to remove the military power of the Yang family, the Zhang family and the power of Jiu Wang.

The point was that Qi Sheng gave them a warning that their lives were in his hands and he could kill them whenever he wanted. That is why they must be very careful in all their actions from now on.

General Yang wondered if Qi Sheng was doing this for the sake of the Empress? Qi Sheng admitted that the Empress was indeed one of the reasons.

But the most important reason was because it was currently a very important time for the war in the north. He had to find useful people and stabilize the kingdom. Then how was Qi Sheng going to assign Jiu Wang and Zhao duties?

"You should be suspicious of people you use, but it's also better to use people you don't trust."

Lu Li was relieved that they had escaped this danger. The Emperor really cared about Peng Peng. But that was precisely what confused Peng Peng. Obviously Qi Sheng hated them a lot, but instead did nothing to them. What exactly was Qi Sheng afraid of? Or does he have other plans?

Peng Peng did not like the fact that his life was in the hands of Qi Sheng. And that made him even more steady with his alliance with Jiu Wang.

Jiu Wang came while Peng Peng was doing yoga. He's got a gift for Peng Peng, a heart knot accessory. Peng Peng was happy, but why did Jiu Wang give him that gift?
