~2 min read 354 words

Outside the Imperial Study.

Zhang Shou covered his face, his face full of unwillingness, "Elder brother, look at what the Empress did to me!"

"That slap had real force! My teeth were almost knocked out!"

Zhang Shou covered his face, muttering, extremely dissatisfied, while Zhang Ping looked into the distance, silent.

After a long time without a reply, this made Zhang Shou extremely dissatisfied, "Elder brother, say something!"

Zhang Ping came back to his senses and said helplessly, "Say what?"

Zhang Shou said as if it were a matter of course, "Naturally about me getting hit."

"The Empress even said this was a family affair with Prime Minister Gao; what kind of family affair does she have with Prime Minister Gao? You and I are the ones who are her family, but look at what she did to me!"

Zhang Ping said calmly, "Then what do you want to do? This slap was given by the Empress; do you still have dissatisfaction?"

As soon as Zhang Shou heard this, he immediately said, "Of course!"

"I stood up for the Empress, but the Empress gave me a slap; what kind of thing is this? The Empress clearly didn't take my Zhang family seriously; why not deal with her?"

Zhang Ping was numb.

He covered Zhang Shou's mouth, looked nervously to both sides, his whole person like facing a great enemy.

When he found no one on either side, he let go and hurriedly lowered his voice to reprimand, "Are you crazy? You want to deal with everyone?"

"If these words reach someone else's ears, the Zhang family's heads won't be enough for the Empress to chop off!"

Zhang Shou smiled sheepishly, "Elder brother, don't worry, I'm not a fool; I looked at both sides before speaking, no one could have heard."

Zhang Ping breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily, "Then you aren't smart either; you and I are relatives by marriage, our honor and disgrace depend entirely on the Empress; not to mention whether we can deal with her, if we really did, what would happen to you and me?"

"That's true too!"
