Song Yanran disagreed: "But these orphans of traitors are innocent; their ancestors rebelled..."
But they didn't. I only built the Wind and Rain Pavilion to prevent their lineage from dying out, to give them a place to live.
"The Wind and Rain Pavilion was a contradiction from the very beginning. Its core members were all orphans of the court officials you persecuted back then."
The main purpose of Fengyulou is to resist the tyranny of the empress. If this idea is passed down from generation to generation, do you think it won't suddenly backfire?
Have you ever considered that your methods are actually incredibly cruel? What will happen when they learn that the person who nurtured them is the very same empress who harmed their ancestors?
How are you expecting them to face themselves? Therefore, your second mistake in establishing the Wind and Rain Tower was failing to instill the correct values; all members of the Wind and Rain Tower only aimed to overthrow the Empress.
By making the overthrow of tyranny your guiding principle, aren't you digging your own grave and cultivating a group of gravediggers?

What comes to mind?
"If Shen Zhao can be Chu Liuxiang, why can't he be Di Feijing?"
Actually, thinking about it carefully, from the moment Chu Liuxiang appeared, I had a strange sense of familiarity with you.
Especially when I sparred with you, I should have connected the techniques you used with Di Feijing's.
Besides, only your decisive and efficient style of doing things is almost exactly like the Di Feijing I remember.
Upon hearing this, Di Fei, who was not far away, immediately turned to Shen Zhao with a mournful face and said, "Well, after all this time..."
So you were the one who was really there! If you had told me sooner, I would have been free from this misery by now.
