Chapter 1015: Opportunity

The following evening, the Emperor's men arrived—four individuals, all indiscernible in a crowd, one aged twenty and the rest seventeen, all males.

Zhou Shuren hadn't expected the Emperor to be so generous as to send four people at once, each of them a true treasure.

Zhou Shuren summoned Chang Lian, Chang Zhi, and his eldest grandson, for these were the future pillars of the Zhou family.

Upon their arrival, Zhou Shuren pointed to two seventeen-year-olds with exceptional skills, "Take these two with you when you leave the capital."

Chang Lian felt reassured, viewing this as a security guarantee, "Yes."

Zhou Shuren then pointed to the twenty-year-old, directing Chang Zhi, "This one will follow you from now on."

The last one would be for his eldest grandson, Mingyun.

With the personnel assigned, Zhou Shuren could rest assured about his descendants' safety.
