But at this moment, a strange man's chuckle suddenly came from the room: "No wonder the prince dares to send you here alone, and you dare to take this job, you are indeed very capable. Previously, I was with Prince Ning
When you were in front of me, I almost couldn't help but take you away."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man in white robe appeared like a ghost next to the coffee table in the side room.
This person is Jian Xin, who is responsible for protecting Zhou Ping'an's safety.
Jian Xin's sudden appearance did not frighten Zhou Pingan.
He stood up and sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Jian Xin calmly and asked: "With the power of a grandmaster, can you detect anyone in this palace who is capable of threatening the grandmaster?"
Jian Xin picked up the teapot and poured herself a bowl of water. She said in a calm but domineering tone: "Do you think the Land of Land Gods is a cabbage or a native chicken? Although there are several masters in his palace, but in the
In front of me, there are nothing more than chickens and dogs."
Zhou Pingan nodded understandingly.
"The land gods are indeed worthy of their reputation. With the protection of the master, this trip will be worry-free."
Ignoring Zhou Pingan's flattery, Jian Xin looked at Zhou Pingan and asked curiously: "How can you be sure that Prince Ning will not kill you?"
"If he didn't take action just now, he won't do it even more in the future."
Zhou Ping'an replied with a smile: "This trip to Dayuan Mansion, there are two times that are the most dangerous. The first one is when I met Prince Ning just now, but fortunately this time has passed."
"If he wants to kill me, he must take the risk of completely falling out with the imperial court. Although he is confident, he must also take into account the opinions of the people in the world."
"He is ambitious. If he wants to ascend the throne and become emperor and compete in the Central Plains, he must care about his image in the eyes of the world. As a vassal king or below, this is a taboo. If he really succeeds, he will never even think about it in his life.
Sit on the throne."
"So I am 80% sure that he will not kill me."
"The situation just now seemed dangerous, but it was actually safe."
"Of course the other 20% surprise is that either he does not have the ambition of an emperor, or he is a complete reckless man."
"No matter which one he is, he no longer poses any threat to the East Palace. On the contrary, his ambition is now clearly revealed."
"This is not a good thing for the East Palace."
"So you use your own head to test him?" Jian Xin asked playfully, "You are so loyal to the prince."
"Of course I am loyal to the prince, but I am not allowed to test Prince Ning with my head."
"To put it bluntly, he is not worth it. My life is worth much more than his."
"That's why I begged the prince to arrange for a grandmaster to protect me. I guess the grandmaster wouldn't watch me being killed by Prince Ning, right?"
Seeing Zhou Ping'an's calm and confident look, Jian Xin laughed loudly and said, "It's really interesting. If you can't achieve anything with your brain, why bother being the prince's dogleg?"
"If not, should I go to the White Lotus Sect to find a job?" Zhou Ping'an asked rhetorically.
These words touched a sore spot in Jian's heart.
When he remembered that, not to mention Zhou Ping'an, he was now being a dog-legger to the prince, his face darkened and he felt a little unhappy.
As if sensing Jian Xin's unhappiness, Zhou Pingan changed the topic.
He asked with a smile: "Grandmaster, believe it or not, now the prince and my second brother must be discussing how to deal with me."
