Zhou Ping'an knew that Zhou Changshou was called from home by the people from the East Palace, and the two brothers were called on New Year's Eve, so they must have arranged a seat for Zhou Changshou in the new year.

But Zhou Ping'an doesn't know what the specific location is, and he can't guess it. Anyway, he will know it when he comes back.

Zhou Ping'an walked over and sat opposite Zhou Changshou, and said angrily: "What's the point of fiddling with these broken chess scores every day?"

As he spoke, he reached out and emptied the stone table directly. The black and white chess pieces fell to the ground. Zhou Ping'an said aloud but didn't have time to stop him. He could only look at Zhou Ping'an with a depressed face as he placed the wine and food he bought on the table.

Zhou Ping'an picked up a chicken leg and tore it, saying, "You haven't said where the prince gave you."

Zhou Changshou sighed and told the whole story of the meeting.

After hearing this, Zhou Ping'an slapped his legs and laughed, saying, "Believe it or not, the prince is definitely taking revenge on you who killed one of his koi."

Zhou Changshou frowned and said, "Not it..."

"It's hard to say."

Zhou Ping'an smiled wickedly and said, "That pool of koi was brought by the Crown Princess from the General's Mansion after entering the Eastern Palace. She was fed by a dedicated person on weekdays and was very expensive, but it was a treasure. I heard that the Crown Prince had accidentally fed one of them to death. It took a long time for the Crown Prince to give her a stop. You killed another one today. The Crown Prince was going to take the blame for you. It would be normal for you to wear some shoes."

Zhou Changshou said angrily: "Since it's so precious, I'm going to feed it? Who knows that those fish are so stupid and will continue to eat when they are full?"

Zhou Ping'an laughed and said, "This is just an anecdote of rumors. Is it true or false unless I ask the prince to verify it, otherwise who knows? But isn't the prince doing something for you according to your wishes? The deputy factory manager of the East Factory is a bit ugly, but when it comes to power, it is much more important than the official position of you, the prefect of the capital."

Zhou Changshou said with a dark face: "I have no interest in the East Factory at all, and the prince has also said that my power is limited to the capital area, and I cannot even cover the capital. I am not stupid, how can I really treat myself as a public factory?"

Rubbing his chin, Zhou Ping'an said, "This is actually a good thing. The prince may want to use you to do something."

Zhou Changshou raised his eyebrows, looked at Zhou Ping'an, and waited for him to explain.

Zhou Ping'an opened a pot of wine, filled himself and Zhou Ping'an with a glass, and said, "In two days, the prince's southern tour, I will go together."

"Is these two things related?" Zhou Changshou frowned.

Zhou Ping'an thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. If it were someone else's words, there would definitely be no one, but the prince who has always liked to take the wrong sword may not consider arranging something... You think, the prince's southern tour and Zhao Xuanji's title of kings, the core of these things is in the south. At that time, the eyes of the whole world will follow the prince who is in the southern tour. So in the capital, if the prince wants to do something, will it be much more convenient?"

"Xu Changqing took Fu Yuzhi's position, and Zhao Heshan fire line was promoted to the position of Minister of Revenue. In addition, you, the prefect of the capital, and the layout of the prince has begun."
