from the servants that Your Highness is visiting your father in the palace, and my younger brother is waiting outside. I dare not disturb him for a moment or two."Li Chen smiled, but said nothing."Th...Chapter 1413: A Moment of Fury for a Woman’s Beauty

Zhou Ping'an heard this and laughed in anger, saying, “I’d be willing to hear Second Brother’s opinion.”

Throughout this journey, Zhou Changshou had been completely worn down by Zhou Ping'an. But now, seeing this expression on Zhou Ping'an's face, Zhou Changshou suddenly felt all the anger he had harbored before was released.

He smiled and said, "This time, whether it was Jie'an's assassination attempt on him or the woman named Gong Huiyu who hung between life and death, it made him hate Buddhism to the extreme. I can say with certainty that if it weren't for Gong Huiyu being so seriously injured, he would still be furious, but he wouldn't easily destroy Buddhism. If he were to destroy it, it would be years, even decades later."

It's something to be considered only after he ascends the throne, fully controls the government, and pacifies external enemies.

"So your guess is right, he's gone mad for a woman."

Zhou Ping'an remained expressionless, until this point, Zhou Changshou's words had not been particularly surprising.

Just now, Li Chen's furious expression clearly showed that he was writing these things all over his face.

Zhou Changshou didn't care what Zhou Ping'an looked like, and continued, "Even if he was so furious, he realized how difficult it would be to do this now, but he still did it resolutely. Didn't you notice He wasn't discussing with us, but informing us of his decision to do so. Asking you, asking me, to help him find a way, instead of opposing him."

Zhou Ping'an sneered coldly: "Can you say something useful"

"They are all useful."

Zhou Changshou sighed lightly and said, "Even in such rage, he still calmly considered the difference between destroying Buddhism and destroying faith. Everything you said, about logic and reason, has already been accounted for in his simple statement: 'Faith cannot be destroyed.'"

"So I'm saying, Southern Shaolin won't be destroyed. As a puppet supported by others, the people don't care if it's Southern or Northern Shaolin, as long as there's a temple and statues there, that's enough. So the resistance from the public won't be that great."

“As for the Tubo of Tian Zang, even if they could see through it, as long as our actions were fast enough, by the time they reacted, everything would be settled. No matter what they did, in name, they would still be under the jurisdiction of my great Qin. The temples are still there, the Buddha statues are still there, so how could they possibly revolt”

"The emperor's wrath was great, but he only killed the bandits and spared the people. That is already a rare display of reason. How can you call him cruel"

Patting Zhou Ping'an on the shoulder, Zhou Changshou said: "You haven't experienced love between men and women, so you don't know this kind of feeling. I understand that, but I have experienced it. I know very well that if a man can't even protect his own woman, what use are those powers Those powers are just false powers, powers that can be overthrown at any time."

"So the Prince's extermination of Buddhism was a passionate outburst for a woman, but it was also to dominate the world and establish his own order."

“One thing, one word, cannot be done or said. That's authority. But if the first person does it, says it, and finds no punishment, then authority will instantly dissipate, supreme becoming humble. However, if anyone touches the taboo and brings about disaster, then authority will become even more deeply rooted in people’s hearts, and no one will dare to touch it again.”

Speaking of which, Zhou Changshou suddenly felt a bit sentimental. He said, "I don't know if the woman named Gong Huiyu will ever wake up. But if she does, no matter how cold her temperament is, when she learns that the Crown Prince destroyed all the Buddhas in anger for her sake, even the most ice-cold woman couldn't resist such tenderness."lames even higher.Li Yinhu took a deep breath and said in a solemn voice.Behind him, a figure resembling a ghost emerged, an old man.This old man was the one who had been hiding in the secret room of...
