Hearing this, Zhao Heng clenched his fists and said sternly, "The Imperial Guards are also an army, and as an army they must adhere to military discipline. What are you laughing at? Don't you know how to keep quiet during drills?"
After saying that, he directly took the soldier's hand and raised his hand to the standard height.
The soldier's face darkened instantly. He pushed Zhao Heng hard, pushing him several steps back. He then threw his weapon to the ground and said, "You're teaching me nonsense when you don't know anything. I'm not going to practice with you anymore!"
It is actually recognized as resistance!
The other soldiers also looked at Zhao Heng, with their hands on their hips, with an expression that said, "What can you do to me if I don't train?"
Zhao Heng was so angry when he saw this scene that veins popped out on the back of his hands. He was so angry that he didn't know how to vent it.
He couldn't help but grit his teeth. When had he ever suffered such humiliation?
Thinking that Su Lijin was determined to get him into the palace, Zhao Heng couldn't help but feel dissatisfied.
But because of Su Lijin, he came to the Imperial Guard with the help of air conditioning. Not only was he ridiculed in the barracks, but even the soldiers of the Imperial Guard dared to openly resist him. In this kind of life, there is no promotion at all, it is clear that he is here to suffer!
At this moment, a figure quietly appeared in a corner of the Imperial Guards' training ground. It was Su Lijin.
Su Lijin didn't know how Zhao Heng was doing in the imperial guards, and she was concerned, so she couldn't help but come over to check on him.
But I didn't expect to see this scene right in front of me.
She frowned, and on the other side of the training ground, Zhao Heng was so angry that he just walked away.
Seeing this, Su Lijin hurried over and asked, "Zhao Heng, where are you going?"
Zhao Heng turned around and saw Su Lijin, and he became furious.
At this moment, he only felt that Su Lijin was extremely selfish, which made him sick. He said angrily: "Where else can I go? I have been harmed and put into such a dilemma now. Where else can I go?"
Su Lijin, who was deeply concerned about Zhao Heng, was also a little angry at these words: "Zhao Heng, I know you are being given a hard time, and I am very angry, but people who give hard times like this are everywhere. Can you hide from them for a while, or forever?"
"If I hadn't entered the palace, would I have lived this kind of life?" Zhao Heng suppressed his anger, his eyes red with anger.
Su Lijin calmed down considerably and said, "As a man, the opportunity to achieve great things is right before your eyes. Can't you seize it? The position of commander of the Imperial Guard is a height that many people can never reach in their lifetime, and you still think this is harming you?"
"Isn't it just someone maliciously making things difficult for me? If I were you, I would fight back directly. I wouldn't be so cowardly as you are!"
This immediately aroused Zhao Heng's blood. He glared and said, "Would I be afraid of them? I'll make them behave themselves!"
After saying that, he turned around and rushed to the training ground.
The triumphant soldiers on the training ground were all stunned when they saw him suddenly turn back.
Zhao Heng narrowed his eyes and said, "You, come here and challenge me!"
He pointed at the soldier who had just defied him.
"Let's have a one-on-one duel!"
The soldier hesitated for a moment, but then thought of something and went on stage with a sneer.
But Zhao Heng didn't wait for him to make a move. He pushed him to the ground with his bare hands. Everyone looked at the scene in shock.
Then, Zhao Heng knocked down a few more people. He really wanted to prove himself, so he attacked very ferociously, which scared everyone so much that they dared not say a word anymore.
Only then did the imperial guards calm down.
Zhao Heng stood up and looked back, only to find that Su Lijin had left at some point.
He was thinking about Su Lijin's words and suddenly punched himself on the head.
"I'm too narrow-minded. When I'm frustrated, I just run away."
Su Lijin was wholeheartedly trying to help him, but he misunderstood her kindness and felt extremely guilty.
But in the next few days, Su Lijin never showed up again. Zhao Heng looked at the corner of the training ground and began to think about how to contact her.
Kunning Palace.
Inside the palace with carved beams and painted rafters, exquisite plates and bowls were laid out in order, filled with the finest fruits and melons tributed from all over the country. The juice of the melons and fruits was tempting and mouth-watering.
Su Lijin was wearing a dress embroidered with phoenix patterns and a simple headpiece decorated with phoenix pearls and jade. She lay comfortably on the chaise longue, eating sweet fruits bite by bite.
"Hmm, this is good. The juice is sweet and it even has a rich floral aroma."
After eating a golden fruit, Su Lijin's eyes lit up as she commented.
She was like a master tasting fruits and vegetables, giving her own evaluation on each dish, which made the palace maids around her laugh.
Xianxian stood by, a smile on her face: "My Queen, after we finish eating these fruits, I'm afraid we'll have to eat less at meals."
Su Lijin waved her hands: "How could that be? After I finish this, I can still have two more bowls of rice."
This made Xianxian laugh again. After laughing for a while, Xianxian looked outside and murmured, "My queen, Commander Zhao Heng is looking towards our palace again."
Su Lijin acted as if she didn't hear anything and continued eating her fruit.
"These past two days, Commander Zhao has been dropping by to look at us whenever he has nothing to do." Xianxian's eyes showed a hint of worry as she whispered, "My Queen, could it be that Commander Zhao is..."
"Could it be something else?" After taking a bite of the fruit, Su Lijin spoke.
Xianxian glanced outside, then glanced at Su Lijin, and said softly, "Could it be that he likes the Empress?"
"Cough cough cough..." As soon as these words came out, Su Lijin almost choked on the fruit and couldn't help coughing.
Xianxian quickly helped her calm down.
After coughing a few times, Su Lijin smiled and shook her head, looking at her incredulously: "Little girl, what are you thinking about all day long?"
She actually thought that Zhao Heng liked her?
If Zhao Heng heard this, he would probably commit suicide to prove his innocence.
Thinking of Zhao Heng's stubborn character, she couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips.
Xianxian stuck out her tongue, a blush appearing on her face. "This servant just feels that Commander Zhao has been coming here too often these past two days, and he keeps looking inside. I couldn't help but make this guess."
Following Xianxian's gaze, she glanced outside and said calmly, "Let him look, it's nothing serious."
Next, Su Lijin could still hear Xianxian talking about Zhao Heng looking into Kunning Palace. She waited for a while, and only took action when it was almost time to leave Zhao Heng alone.
That's right, she always knew that Zhao Heng was hanging around nearby and wanted to find her.
But after what happened last time at the Imperial Guards training ground, she knew that she had to leave Zhao Heng alone for a few days.
On the one hand, it helps him calm down his anger, and on the other hand, it also gives him time to understand many truths and stop being blinded by the current problems and complaining all the time.
Now, the time is almost up, and it is time for her to meet Zhao Heng.
After changing into Shiqi's clothes, Su Lijin quietly went to the imperial guards and found Zhao Heng.
When Zhao Heng saw her, his eyes lit up. He wanted to say something, but seemed a little embarrassed.
When Su Lijin saw him like this, a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of her lips, but she concealed it.
She deliberately kept a cold expression and said, "Commander Zhao, I haven't seen you for a few days."
