Zhang Dun said: "A scholar can be killed but not humiliated."

The official asked in a stern voice: "Can't you do even one thing that pleases you?"

Unexpectedly, Zhang Dun responded without any politeness at all: "It's such a happy thing, it's better not to do it."

This sentence makes Guan Jia's lungs still feel a faint pain.

The official thought when he thought of this sentence, Zhang Yue seemed to mean Zhang Dun, not Cai Que.

There are rumors that the two of them are at odds with each other, but it seems that this may not be true. Could it be a lie?

…

In Cai Que's house.

Cai Qiezheng washed the feet of his mother Mingshi.

Cai Que acted very carefully and meticulously. After serving his mother, his wife Sun helped carry away the foot-washing water.

Ming glanced at Sun's back and said, "I heard that you are going to serve as Prime Minister. Recently, many relatives and in-laws have come to visit you. What are your plans?"

Cai Que sat up and said, "Mom, have you forgotten how those relatives and in-laws treated us when our father passed away?"

"I will always remember the warmth and kindness of my father when he was buried."

"Sanlang said that I grew up in humble beginnings, so my relatives don't recognize me. He is right in what he said. I have seen all kinds of hardships in the world, and my heart has already become cold."

Ming gave a long sigh and said, "I know those people didn't treat you well back then. Your father was an official and lived in poverty all his life. Otherwise, why would you have to go through such a difficult road?"

"The officials have asked you to do so many things that offend people. I'm really afraid."

Cai Quedao: "Mom, I am sensible. The hard days are over."

"Now our Cai family still has a big feud to deal with. I promised dad that I will take revenge on the Chen family if I have the chance in the future."
