The Sorrowmender

PAID Chapter 177

At dusk, Zhang Jun came to visit.

"Mister, the emperor asked me to inquire about your opinion on the matter of Duke Wei."

Xu Qingzhou, who was reading, put down his book and pursed his lips.

He was well aware of today's events and wasn't surprised by the outcome.

However, the process had touched him somewhat.

Though he had witnessed it firsthand, listening to Zhou Xu's vivid description, he couldn't help but be moved.

He had to admire the Duke's composure.

Facing the man who killed his closest kin, he acted as if he knew nothing, terrifyingly calm, with no trace of hatred in his eyes, expression, or demeanor.

Facing failure, he was so decisive, letting go without hesitation. After discussing it last night, he resigned from his post cleanly this morning.

He truly embodied the saying to its fullest.

A true man can pick things up and put them down.

He accepted defeat gracefully and with dignity.

He took the pen from the table, pulled a sheet of paper, dipped it in ink, and wrote four characters with a few strokes.

Then he folded the paper several times and handed it to Zhang Jun.

Zhang Jun respectfully received it with both hands.
