for them. However, let this be a lesson."Xu Changqing's heart skipped a beat.Because of Li Chen's few words, he saw through the minds of a group of officials.As if they were discussing something, Li...Chapter 1408: The Master

After Jue An left, King Ning sat alone in the room for a while.

He looked at the dazzlingly beautiful and serene Buddhist bead on the table. After holding it in his palm, he suddenly let out a chuckle and murmured, "What is a land immortal Today's encounter is nothing more than this."

At this very moment, on the official road outside Jincheng, Zhou Ping'an was riding a horse, riding side by side with Zhou Changshou.

They looked at the soldiers under Ning Wang's command who stood on both sides of the road, staring at them with sinister expressions as they watched them leave, and chuckled softly: "See, just one day ago they were digging up the earth three feet deep to find us and kill us quickly. Now we are walking openly and aboveboard, they can't do anything about us, and they even have to watch us leave."

Zhou Changshou said coldly, "I really can't see what there is to be proud of."

Zhou Ping'an didn't take the bait, but instead said, "How are you thinking about it"

Zhou Changshou remained silent.

Zhou Ping'an advised earnestly: "Birds of a feather flock together. Although you have chosen the wrong person, it is shameful, but there is still a chance for redemption. You are capable, and Your Highness needs people. Why not seize this opportunity"

Zhou Changshou said in a low voice: “Although our aspirations are the same, our personalities, ways of doing things, and thinking habits are all different. Therefore, we will have diametrically opposite evaluations of the same thing and the same person. What you think is good, I may not necessarily think is good. The saying that what is honey to one person is poison to another needs me to say more”

Zhou Ping'an said calmly, "You just can't let go of your pride. Now it's clear that King Ning doesn't want you, and you have no way to go back. Could you possibly take your skills with you to die"

"There's no need to go to death, find a place under a fence, picking chrysanthemums and drinking tea is also a great joy in life." Zhou Changshou said resolutely.

"Do you think that's realistic"

Zhou Ping'an frowned and said, "If you really want to retire, King Ning and the one behind us wouldn't let you go."

Faced with Zhou Changshou's silence, Zhou Pingan said solemnly: "You remind me of the saying 'What is honey to one person may be poison to another,' and I remind you of the saying 'The innocent are often suspected because they possess something valuable.'"

This wall, it could be a priceless treasure, or even something more valuable than a priceless treasure - your skills. With such ability, if you don't use it for them, you'll only destroy it yourself.

Zhou Ping'an's words reached Zhou Changshou's ears. Zhou Changshou gripped the reins tightly, remained silent, but his flickering gaze betrayed the turmoil in his heart.

Zhou Ping'an glanced at Zhou Changshou, smiled without saying a word.

He knew that although his second older brother had a different personality from him, they were the same at heart.

For them, it is not death they fear, but the inability to use their skills and talents.

That's worse than death.

Just at this moment, Xiaogzi came before the two of them and softly said, "Two esteemed guests, His Highness asks that you take a carriage to speak."

Zhou Ping'an responded with a nod, his attitude still quite amiable as he said, "Understood, we'll go right now."

But Zhou Changshou corrected him, saying: "I am just an ordinary commoner, not a high official. Please remember that, sir, lest there be confusion about rank and responsibility."

Xiaozi bowed to Zhou Changshou and said in a low voice, "In the 'Solution to Blindness' chapter of Xunzi, it is said: 'To be clear about the sun and moon, and to fill all directions perfectly, this is what it means to be a great man.'"

"Though you hold no official rank, this humble one admires your knowledge that rivals the sun and moon, encompassing all aspects perfectly. Hence, I use this appellation for you. If it is too bold, please forgive me."on't know how long this silence lasted, but suddenly the Prince Ning burst into laughter and said, "Oh my, I'm getting old! I'm so delighted to see Your Highness that I forgot even the most basic etiq...
