Wang Zhice became somewhat emotional as he gazed at the black stone in his hand.
This black stone had originally been his.
After the Grand Examination, Chen Changsheng had taken this stone out from the stone wall in the Lingyan Pavilion.
At the time, Wang Zhice had been acting on a whim, but also out of an evil interest, a silent jeer at Emperor Taizong.
He had not expected that after so many years, someone still knew of this secret, and that someone would get this black stone.
What happened after that was starlight bathing the capital for the night and the sudden rise in Chen Changsheng's reputation.
Many people said that Chen Changsheng was a lot like him, whether it was in terms of talent, temperament, or encounters.
Chen Changsheng had found the objects he had hidden in the Lingyan Pavilion, so from a certain perspective, he really was his successor.
Perhaps it was for these reasons that Wang Zhice had always rather admired Chen Changsheng.
