Zhou Changshou let out a cold snort and said, “In your report, you said that I thought your methods were too brutal. You could have achieved the same result with more conciliatory means, but you insist on killing. I can't accept it.”

Every word and every character must be correct, not even a single typo allowed. Write it like this.

Having heard Zhou Changshou's words, Zhou Pingan burst into laughter and said, "Okay, I understand what you mean. You're saying everything is fine and the plan is going smoothly, right I'll go write it down now."

After that, Zhou Ping'an walked into the house. Zhou Changshou glanced at his back and shook his head slightly. He didn't say anything more.

He was well aware that despite being brothers born of the same mother, their personalities and approaches to life were worlds apart.

Different personalities and ways of doing things inevitably lead to different thinking habits.

Those who have different paths, will not conspire together.

Zhou Changshou felt that he absolutely couldn't get along with Zhou Ping'an, even if they were brothers born of the same mother.

······

At this moment, in the Wulong Mountains of Gansu and Shaanxi provinces.

As night deepened, the dew grew heavy and the ice and snow melted, causing the temperature to drop even further.

Outside Li Chen's bedroom, Wan Jiaojiao glared huffily at the dusty messenger who had just arrived with a secret letter, saying: "Couldn't something important be delivered during the day Your Highness has just gone to sleep! In these two days, Your Highness has only rested for less than two hours. If this continues, even an iron man would not be able to bear it!"

The spy said with a mournful face, “It's an urgent secret letter from the capital. It must be delivered to the emperor’s hands at the earliest time. I dare not delay it, or I would really delay a major event and my head would be in danger.”

Although Wan Jiaojiao was unwilling to have Li Chen's rest disturbed, she dared not neglect it upon hearing that it was a confidential letter from the capital. She could only stomp her foot and angrily say: "All day long, it's you with your confidential letters, making it seem as if everything is important enough for His Highness to handle personally. His Highness has only been asleep for a moment, and if it wasn't something so important, I would make you pay attention!"

As she said this, Wan Jiaojiao had already pushed open the door.

Li Chen's sleep was very light, he woke up when the door opened.

"Your Highness, a secret message from the capital."

As soon as Wan Jiaojiao said this, Li Chen immediately dispelled his weariness, rolled over, and took the cloak she handed him. After putting it on, he walked to the hall.

After receiving the letter from the spy, Li Chen carefully browsed it under the dim light, not showing any carelessness.

During this period, Li Chen felt that he couldn't hold on any longer, and let out a deep, long yawn.

"Jiaojiao, brew a cup of strong tea," Li Chen ordered.

Wàn Jiāojiāo wasn't very happy about it, she mumbled: "Your Highness, forcing yourself to stay awake with strong tea, if you drink it, you won't be able to rest tonight."

"Tomorrow, tomorrow I will definitely have a good rest."

Li Chen coaxed Wan Jiaojiao and said, "Why don't you brew a cup first"

Even though Wan Jiajiao had a thousand and one reasons to refuse, she could only obey Li Chen's words and get up to brew a cup of strong tea.

The strong tea went down his throat, the scalding and bitter tea flooding his throat. Li Chen frowned slightly, the intense bitterness and rich aftertaste of the tea woke him up quite a bit. In this short amount of time, Li Chen had already finished reading the secret letter.

The confidential message is from Chen Tong.

Inside, only two things were reported.

Firstly, Zhou Ping'an's strategy was highly effective.

Secondly, Zhou Ping'an's order resulted in countless deaths.sing. He knew she must have suffered unimaginable cruelty before this.But Li Chen doesn't care.Faced with this person who almost took his life, Li Chen wished she would die sooner.Having received the...
