Zhao Linger smiled and said, "Okay, my dear sister, the troubles between you and me are more than just the one a few days ago. I called you out because I really have something to ask you."
"Did the young master and Zhao Min have a relationship?"
After hearing this question, Zhou Zhiruo's eyes showed a hint of panic: "Old woman, can you cleanse your heart a little? Why do you always think about those messy things? Wouldn't it be better to be a person with a cleaner heart?"
Zhao Linger laughed and said, "Sister Zhiruo, stop talking about me here. I have reflected on it these days. When I saw the wound on the young master's shoulder that day, I was indeed a little impulsive and almost hit you. But thinking about it afterwards, it is most likely not you who did it. Although you are cold and mean in your daily life, in fact, you care about the young master more than anyone else. So I guess that the wound on the young master's shoulder was most likely caused by Zhao Min."
"If I guess correctly, there is a high probability that you and Zhao Min have already had a relationship."
"There are some things that I won't ask if you don't tell me, but I can still ask you."
"I want to hear a positive answer from you."
Zhou Zhiruo snorted coldly: "Old woman, I really don't understand what you are talking about. How could Zhang Wuji do such a thing with Zhao Min? There can only be my mark on his body. As for other women, don't even think about it."
"The wound on his shoulder was caused by my bite."
Zhou Zhiruo spoke with great confidence, but Zhao Linger just looked at her with a smile. After a moment, she said, "Okay, I know the answer."
Zhou Zhiruo hurriedly said: "You know, what do you know? Don't talk nonsense. If some things are spread out, Zhang Wuji will definitely think that I said it."
"I feel very embarrassed when you do this."
Zhao Linger laughed and said, "You little slut, I was only 50% sure just now, but now it's 100% sure."
Zhao Linger sighed helplessly, then sat on a stool beside her.
Zhou Zhiruo said to Zhao Linger angrily: "Old woman, those things that happened just now were all guessed by you, not said by me. But, even if you guessed it, you can't tell anyone."
"Did you hear that?"
Zhao Linger said helplessly: "I heard it, you are the one who talks too much."
"Alas..., with the young master's current status and position, he can have any kind of woman he wants. Even if he can't find one, I will help him find one. But why did he choose Zhao Min? He can keep it secret for now, but this kind of thing will spread sooner or later."
"I don't know whether it's good or bad."
Zhou Zhiruo asked angrily: "Then tell me, how should we deal with this matter? Otherwise, how about we join forces to get rid of Zhao Min?"
Zhao Linger said: "Stop talking nonsense. The young master is a passionate man. Since he and Zhao Min already have a substantial relationship, we can't touch her anymore."
"It's annoying, really annoying. Forget it. Let's talk about the future later."
"Even if Zhao Min rebels one day, as long as we get rid of Zhu Yuanzhang before she does, she won't be able to cause any trouble."
"When the time comes and I have to take action, I will not show any mercy."
…
In Zhao Min's room, Zhang Wuji chatted with her for a while and then forced her to use his internal energy to heal her injuries.
Fortunately, Zhao Min cooperated this time and did not dare to make any unwilling actions. After all, this was not the place where she and Zhang Wuji had sex before.
Zhao Min was not afraid that Zhang Wuji would force himself on her again, but she was afraid that if he did force himself on her, it might be seen by others accidentally.
It took almost a quarter of an hour, until Zhao Min's face turned slightly rosy, Zhang Wuji whispered: "Do you feel better? Do you still feel any pain in your internal organs?"
Zhao Min said: "It hurts, of course it hurts. I got all these injuries when I was exhausted. Your queen beat me up so badly that it almost took my life."
"After that, when my injury had not yet improved, you beat me again and almost killed me. The most hateful thing is that you forced your body on me under such circumstances. The last person left is Zhou Zhiruo. She beat me badly last night."
"Now there are three of you who have hurt me. One is in front of me, and two are outside. Facing the three of you, I really don't have a word to say."
"Go away, I don't want to see you again."
Zhang Wuji smiled and said, "You can't not want to see me. What I said to you that day still counts. I will find a way to let you stay by my side with a legitimate reason. My approach may be a little overbearing, but there is no other way. The relationship that shouldn't have happened has already happened. How can I let you leave?"
"You should stay here and recuperate during this period of time."
"After a while, I will lead all my soldiers to Dadu again. At that time, you must follow me. The war between you and me is over. The only one left is Zhu Yuanzhang."
…
A month later.
All areas north of the Yellow River have been completely pacified, and the remnants of Yuan Ting in a few areas have also been wiped out.
Duan Zihao of Zhigu Village chose to surrender directly and cleanly after hearing that Zhao Min had negotiated, or surrendered.
Duan Zihao was naturally unwilling to accept this and even cried for this, but what else could he do after crying? In fact, given the current situation, he had already seen the signs of Yuan Ting's decline a long time ago, and he had persisted until now only because he was hoping for luck.
After dismissing his soldiers, Duan Zihao came to Daxing alone.
No matter what, he still has to meet Zhao Min. If he can still do something, he will continue to stay by Zhao Min's side. If Zhao Min is discouraged, then he will probably wander around the world.
…
Still in that small house, Zhao Min had already learned the news that Duan Zihao had come to Daxing.
As for Li Yao's personal maid, Zhao Min also asked Zhang Wuji to pick her up from outside the city. Although Zhao Min no longer had to worry about any state affairs, at least to survive, she still needed someone to talk to.
That night, Li Yao prepared a dinner that was not sumptuous.
There were only four simple side dishes and a small jar of good wine.
And just as she had imagined, Duan Zihao really came to the place where Zhao Min was living that night.
Looking at the general who had gone through life and death with her in the past, Zhao Min felt mixed emotions.
After a long time, he managed to utter: "General, how are you?"
