Chapter 26: The Most Handsome Man (1)
Zhou Cheng was naturally very angry about the provocations from others. He was not unaware of the conspiracy behind this. As one of the strong forces maintaining peace in the world, the danger of one side gave him the opportunity to unify the world. However, if he did so, it was conceivable that all the spearheads would be directed at Zhou State, including Zhao State, which still had an alliance at this stage, and would also launch corresponding attacks on it. Therefore, the current situation made Zhou State very nervous. On the surface, the world was within reach, but secretly, it would have to bear the goal of becoming the master of the world. If it took a wrong step, it would be doomed...
"So what should we do?"
"Let's wait and see. This matter will sooner or later cause a quarrel among the ministers in the court, and I will make a decision sooner or later. Before that, let's see what King Zhao is capable of."
The meaning summarized in Zhou Cheng's words includes both positive and negative aspects, that is, whether Zhao Ziheng can meet his expectations will determine his choice.
"yes!"
"What we can do now is to find the mastermind behind the turmoil as soon as possible. Otherwise, no matter how capable the King of Zhao is, he will not be able to prevent the bloodshed from happening—"
"Yes, sir!"
"I really want to know how much King Zhao knows about this matter, and how much information does he have that we don't have? Can the battlefield ghosts and gods resolve this turmoil, or minimize the damage?"
Compared with Zhao Ziheng's competence, Zhou Cheng also possesses foresight and strategy that cannot be ignored.
Zhou Yan, who returned to Zhou State with the 'Fire Soul Jade', encountered many obstacles on the way, but finally returned to Zhou State safely. With the 'Fire Soul Jade', Yin Yin's life can be said to have great hope. Zhou Cheng was very shocked that Zhao Ziheng readily lent him the national treasure 'Fire Soul Jade', and he could more or less guess what Zhao Ziheng meant. However, the most important thing at the moment is to save Yin Yin. It is not just hoping that she can wake up, but also that Yin Yin may know some information that caused the turmoil in the world. Both publicly and privately, the top priority is to make Yin Yin wake up as soon as possible.
Soon after Zhao Ziheng appointed Lin Wei as the queen, he went to the border areas for inspection. The war encountered during the inspection was inevitable. Of course, Zhao Ziheng also took some measures against the invasion of neighboring countries. His heroic appearance on the battlefield was more than what he was originally praised as "ghosts and gods". The distinctive battlefield formations and techniques earned Zhao Ziheng the title of "wise general ghost and god", which served a certain purpose of killing the chicken to scare the monkey.
The resurrection of the gods and ghosts on the battlefield, coupled with the minds of the wise generals, made the Zhao army take control of the battle. Since the joining of Zhao Ziheng, the invasion of Zhao State has been defeated repeatedly. The strengthening of the Zhao army has made the people of Zhao State live a very stable life, and the bravery of the king of a country also made the people feel deeply honored.
However, the king of a country who had been fighting against the invaders for a long time could not estimate the movements of the royal city. Zhao Zixi, who had been safe only for a period of time when Zhao Ziheng returned to the palace, was ready to move again. The fact that the good minister Wang Xu was almost assassinated made the Zhao court fall into panic. The so-called external worries and internal troubles were nothing more than this. It took only less than half a year to suppress the invasion on the border. The credit should be attributed to Zhao Ziheng. Not only did he suppress the invasion, but he also improved the national defense. He also provided certain assistance to some friendly countries that were also invaded or intended to join the country. This made the power of Zhao expand unknowingly...
Located in Fancheng, the capital of Yu State, located on the north and south sides of Zhou State (Xilai Inn)
There was only one table of people on the second floor. Although it was a table, there was only one person. He was the only person on the second floor. He was elegantly dressed in white, suave, and handsome. He looked like a fairy. He was a very beautiful man who looked like a woman. You couldn't tell that he was from this world at all. He was waving a paper fan in his hand while sipping the fragrant tea. His movements were extremely elegant...
There was a sound of footsteps climbing up the stairs.
Soon she was behind the handsome man.
"master!"
The man who just came up also had an extraordinary appearance, but he treated the handsome man in front of him with great respect. He knelt on one knee and behaved respectfully and flatteringly. There was no color fluctuation on his face, like a puppet without emotions.
The handsome man ignored the people behind him and continued to taste the tea. When he put down the cup after savoring the fragrant tea, he heard a wonderful voice that seemed to belong to this world: "What's the answer?"
These three short words are as unforgettable as the singing voice of a yellow oriole.
"He clearly refused!"
"Have I conveyed my meaning to him?"
"Yes!"
"oh?"
The handsome man elegantly folded the folding fan and placed it under his chin, as if he was thinking about something. After a moment, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and he opened the fan again and said: "Isn't it very interesting? I haven't been exercising enough recently-"
"Then I will arrange it immediately."
"Stop, who asked you to do this?"
The subordinate was about to leave as soon as he finished speaking, but was stopped by his master the moment he turned around. When he heard what his master said, he immediately knelt down without saying a word , and his expression changed from expressionless to fearful: "This subordinate deserves death!"
"Forget it, I'm not in a bad mood today—"
"Yes, yes, thank you, Master!"
"Okay, back off."
"As you command, I will take my leave!"
From the words, we can see that the subordinates are very afraid of their master who is a handsome man. Just a few short sentences of conversation made the subordinates break out in cold sweats. However, in contrast, the handsome man did not say or do anything threatening or frightening. It can be seen that the subordinates' fear of him is very different from his appearance.
After the subordinate left, the handsome man leisurely tasted the fragrant tea again...
A breeze blew by.
"How's the investigation going?"
The handsome man put down the teacup in his hand as if nothing had happened.
"She is the second daughter of the prime minister, Miss Su Qingyan!"
There was clearly only one person on the empty second floor, but out of nowhere another person's voice appeared. But who was the owner of this strange voice?
"Su Qingyan? What a nice name—"
The handsome man was seen smiling faintly. If there were people present, both men and women would probably fall for his gentle and extraordinary appearance. Fortunately, the second floor was empty at this time, except for a guy who was nowhere to be seen in the dark.
at night.
It was late at night and most people were already asleep...
A white figure appeared in a mansion, and soon, the white figure entered a very obvious woman's boudoir!
The next day, the sun rose and shone brightly...
A maid entered the boudoir carrying a basin of water.
The maid was surprised to find the clothes of the man and woman scattered all over the floor and stretched to the bedside. Although the transparent curtains were drawn, the maid could still clearly see a naked man and a naked woman lying on the bed...
