Chapter 112: King’s Domination (2)
"I always feel that there is a conspiracy behind this incident."
Zhao Ziyan, who had just started talking, suddenly opened his mouth, naturally diverting the attention of Zhao Ziheng and Wang Ye.
"It may be related to the previous incident."
Zhao Ziheng not only agreed with Zhao Ziyin's idea, but also added his own ideas. Wang Ye already had a general understanding of the previous incident that Zhao Ziheng mentioned, but after all, he had not witnessed it with his own eyes and it was inevitable that some things could not be verified; whether it was Zhao Ziheng or Zhao Ziyin, obviously did not expect that things would be so coincidental, especially Zhao Ziyin, who never thought that Ling Menghan seemed to be inadvertently involved.
"It seems that the enemy's target may not be or is not limited to Zhao."
After Wang Ye expressed his analysis, Zhao Ziheng and Zhao Ziyin immediately fell into their own thoughts.
"No matter what, this incident seems too coincidental. Even if it is just a coincidence, what is the enemy's purpose? If this time they want to sow discord between us and Lian Guo, then what was the purpose of the previous incident?"
"The general's words reminded me. If I remember correctly, the princess was kidnapped by Prince Jing last time, right? Then the emperor convened a parliament for the two countries, and then they were attacked in Gray Valley."
As soon as Zhao Ziyin finished speaking, Wang Ye's voice rang out. He said this not as a deliberate reminder, but purely as an analysis based on the situation. After all, it was because of that accident that he and Zhao Ziheng met Yinyin, and Wang Ye also heard about the conspiracy of Gray Valley. After listening to Wang Ye's words, Zhao Ziheng and Zhao Ziyin fell into deep thought again. Zhao Ziheng felt that the act was out of his own selfish desires, while Zhao Ziyin did not participate.
"You mean to say that maybe the plot had already started at that time?"
It was Zhao Ziheng who broke the silence after a long silence, with a calmness never seen before, which shocked Wang Ye and Zhao Ziyin. They seemed to be unconvinced that Zhao Ziheng would suddenly become so rational at this time? It seemed unrealistic, but also seemed to be taken for granted?
"I'm not sure about this yet."
Although he was shocked, Wang Ye did not forget to give Zhao Ziheng a reply. To be honest, he was not really sure and it was all just guesswork.
"If that's the case, then this incident is not a coincidence."
Zhao Ziheng spoke calmly again, as if he was completely sure and could not allow any doubt.
"Isn't this reason too far-fetched?"
Zhao Ziyuin had to express his concerns. Although he knew that if this matter was confirmed, it would not be difficult to understand why Zhao Ziheng would have such a reaction, it was just a guess after all. Also, like Wang Ye, he had not witnessed the previous accident and the incident in Gray Valley with his own eyes. It would be too arbitrary to confirm it just like this.
"No, I think it is entirely possible, otherwise there would be no need to do this. This time, I'm afraid it was just a coincidence. First of all, when it came to Wei'er, let's not talk about whether the mastermind behind the scenes took into account the fact that Prince Jing would intervene. At least I certainly didn't expect that I would convene the parliaments of the two countries, and I was also caught off guard by the sudden change in Gray Valley. It is not ruled out that someone took advantage of that opportunity to launch a surprise attack , and the method was very clever. Of course, it is not ruled out that it was the mastermind behind the case, but it involves the monarchs of the two countries, which shows that not everyone dares to do it. Then this time, it is obviously a coincidence, because Yinyin's whereabouts can be said to be a secret, and she has been protected in the general's mansion. No one expected that she would be suddenly brought into the palace, of course, except for Princess Quan, but I believe this matter has nothing to do with her, so it can only be said to be a coincidence."
Zhao Ziheng analyzed the whole process surprisingly calmly, as if he had integrated all the details that needed attention. When he talked about Ling Menghan, there was a strange flash in Zhao Ziyan's eyes, which disappeared in a flash.
"From this point of view, the first time, the mastermind behind it was very likely that he knew that Prince Jing would intervene, and then let you know that, given the identities and status of the people involved in the incident, it seemed that it was not difficult to cause disputes between the two countries. Of course, this mainly depends on the importance that the monarchs of both sides attach to this matter. Even if they fail to successfully instigate, it is still easy to shake the relationship between the two countries. And this time, the target is Princess Dongfang. She can be said to be the focus of this birthday banquet . The purpose of her coming here is to establish a marriage alliance with the State of Zhao, so her death will naturally have a great impact on Prince Lian. As for the murderer..."
Wang Ye was further distracted by the process of analyzing Zhao Ziheng, and finally paused on the word "murderer", and there was no sound after that, because there was no need, as it was the matter that needed to be dealt with right in front of him .
"I originally thought that this matter would be left unresolved, but this seems to be a good opportunity to make a breakthrough."
Zhao Ziheng said calmly, his tone revealing determination.
"What about King Lian?"
"I will give him an explanation."
"King Lian is not a tyrant, I believe he will not force us to do anything."
"But the one who died was the princess who was sent to marry. Even if he didn't force it and knew he was framed, the princess's death was a fact after all."
"You don't have to worry about this. I know what to do."
The three of them each had their own words, and finally ended with Zhao Ziheng's words, because no matter what, it was Zhao Ziheng who made the final decision and responded. Not to mention shielding Yin Yin, even if she was not exposed, Zhao Ziheng, as the king of a country, must give an explanation to the other party. This is beyond doubt. Moreover, Zhao Ziheng never thought of escaping from beginning to end, except for shielding Yin Yin. However, as Yin Yin is not the murderer, it can be regarded as a real shielding.
