Chapter 80: The Plague Reappears (6)
"Indeed, the King of Zhao is a man of unfathomable depth. From the very beginning, he was just as the rumors said, a master of both battlefield and strategic intelligence. If it were an ordinary person, it would be hard to imagine that he could revive a declining country at such a speed, and make it even more powerful than before."
"Whether he is someone or an enemy, as the monarch of another country, he is a threat to the Great Zhou. Although we have not seen him harbor hostility towards the Great Zhou at present, we cannot ignore it. Every monarch has the ambition to unify the world, and I believe he is no exception."
Shan Zhen and Xue Han both expressed their opinions. According to Xue Han's opinion, Zhou Cheng might also be included. Xue Han could understand this idea, but if Zhao Ziheng, as the monarch of another country, really had such an idea , then Xue Han would have no choice but to regard Zhao Ziheng as an enemy, even if it meant fighting with Wang Ye, because they all served different monarchs, and when it came to making a choice, they would definitely choose to fight for their masters.
"If this is true, a war is inevitable."
Shan Zhen has more or less some understanding of Zhao Ziheng, but he still cannot understand what happened between him and Yinyin. He also does not understand why a person like Zhao Ziheng would be so deeply in love with Yinyin. There is no reason and it is impossible. Not to mention whether they are in love, they have rarely talked even when they met. It can be confirmed from the time and position alone. But why does Zhao Ziheng's feelings for Yinyin give Shan Zhen an invisible sense of oppression? What kind of relationship do he have with Yinyin? Will Zhao Ziheng not hold Zhou Guo accountable because of Yinyin's relationship? If so, how deep will Zhao Ziheng's feelings for Yinyin be? Being able to give up the possibility of unification , but now choosing the country for the sake of position, makes Shan Zhen really unable to see through Zhao Ziheng's true intentions.
"But I don't think King Zhao is unreasonable. He won't ignore the people of the world. On the contrary, for the sake of the world, I'm afraid he is likely to take on all of this alone."
Zhang Ren's sudden words startled Shan Zhen and Xue Han. He had no ambition, but wanted to shoulder everything alone? Did he mean that he wanted to use the power of Zhao to face the enemy who had the world in his hands? Although Shan Zhen and Xue Han had already affirmed Zhao Ziheng's bravery and skill in fighting, was it too reckless to face a powerful and mysterious enemy? No, as long as they thought about it calmly, Shan Zhen and Xue Han could come up with the answer. Even if Zhao Guo really had the strength to fight against the dark forces, it would surely pay a corresponding price. That price would probably cause the newly revived Zhao Guo to fall into decline again. Was it really necessary for Zhao Ziheng to do this? This kind of thing that has no benefits but only harms others and does not benefit oneself!
Of course, the reason why Zhang Ren said this is because of what he noticed from his contact and communication with Zhao Ziheng. Zhang Ren believes that Zhao Ziheng is such a person, full of justice, fighting for the people, and able to distinguish between public and private. In this regard, Zhou Cheng is really far inferior to him. After all, the person who has always wanted to maintain the broken relationship with the Zhou State is Zhao Ziheng. From him, Zhang Ren could not find Zhao Ziheng's reaction to the breakdown of the alliance between the two countries. It should be said that he hopes that the relationship between the two countries will be reconciled as before, and even fight side by side. If this cannot be done, Zhang Ren believes that Zhao Ziheng will really bear everything alone with the awareness of death.
"Anyway, just do your tasks first. Leave the plague to Xue Han, and the wars among the nations and the affairs of Zhao will be left to you, General Shan."
"yes!!"
Under Zhang Ren's majesty, Shan Zhen and Xue Han both have absolute respect for him. Shan Zhen is not an exception, but Xue Han has had long-term contact with Zhang Ren and knows Zhang Ren's character thoroughly, so he respects him very much. The title of contemporary wise minister is indeed well-deserved.
"Having said that, I think it would be a good idea to have General Shan personally select some spies to monitor Wang Ye's every move. Putting aside the current situation, to some extent, he may be more ruthless than King Zhao."
"Wang Ye?"
Speaking of Wang Ye, Zhang Ren and Shan Zhen did not seem to be shaken by Xue Han's words. Instead, they looked as if they couldn't believe it?
"That's right. Even I still can't see what kind of person that person is. I can only say that he is a very secretive person. What's hard for me to believe is that a person like him would choose to be loyal to someone, and that person is the King of Zhao. The King of Zhao, who is already talented, will undoubtedly be more powerful after receiving his loyalty. With Wang Ye's assistance, it is estimated that if the King of Zhao really wants to take over the world, it will not be difficult."
He told everyone all he knew about Wang Ye and his abilities, so that he could be prepared and on guard in advance just in case the situation became a necessity.
"Oh? It seems that Wang Ye is also a person who should not be underestimated. He may seem inconspicuous at first glance, but in fact he is a master who hides his true strengths. He is worthy of being the King of Zhao. His subordinates are really talented. So, how do you compare to him?"
Zhang Ren became interested in Xue Han's words. Zhang Ren was very clear about Xue Han's strength. To be praised so highly by Xue Han, Zhang Ren believed that the other party's strength must be extraordinary. So, to what extent would the so-called extraordinary be?
"...I'm not afraid that you will take effect if I say it. Compared to him, I'm nothing."
Xue Han's shocking words made Zhang Ren and Shan Zhen fall into a deeper silence. How could this expert be so much better than Xue Han? Could it be that they really neglected the person who should not be neglected? How would the King of Zhao, who had such a talent, use him? It was really worrying.
