Shen Pei was momentarily taken aback as he silently sized up Gongsun Zan. He could feel Gongsun Zan's sincerity, and it was because of this sincerity that Shen Pei, for the first time, discovered that aside from being obstinate, brainless, and full of himself, the other party also had praiseworthy qualities.
"Perhaps Gongsun Zan indeed made countless mistakes, but as a general guarding the border, he could honestly face the people of the world without shame. His only fault was choosing the wrong opponent. On the question of justice, he never fell short!" Shen Pei thought silently to himself.
Looking at Gongsun Zan at this moment, Shen Pei couldn't help but feel respect and no longer treated Gongsun Zan with the previous contempt.
Internally, he, Shen Pei, and Gongsun Zan were enemies, but externally, Gongsun Zan was a hero. And when dealing with heroes, especially one's own heroes, even if political views clashed, one must not erase their accomplishments or insult their character.
