Chapter 116: Unpredictable Changes (6)
In fact, this matter for Zhou State is just like that for Xu State. This makes Zhao Ziheng feel like he is being led, as if someone is deliberately leading him to the battle. If this is true, what benefits will the other party get? Or is this just his illusion?
"…I won't get involved in this matter."
Obviously, Wang Ye was a little surprised by Zhao Ziheng's decisive answer, but he soon returned to normal.
"Having said that, the emperor and I have almost the same idea. If they can't prove it with their own strength, it's useless for us to intervene. In other words, the emperor believes that Prince Jing will definitely help Prince Zhou?"
Basically, what Wang Ye described is very normal, but it is too normal and when it happens to Zhou Yan, it becomes abnormal and even worthy of suspicion.
“He’s not going to sit back and do nothing.”
"Are you so sure? "
It was rare that Wang Ye was not sure about what Zhao Ziheng said. Who was Zhou Yan? Would he help for the sake of the Zhou Kingdom and his brothers? Wang Ye did not forget that at this moment, the army under Zhou Yan's command had completely separated from the Zhou Kingdom's army and could be said to be completely independent. In terms of Zhou Yan's personality, it would be normal for him not to take action, but it would be abnormal if he did.
"It's true that he doesn't care about the survival of Zhou, but no one would have thought of that, so everyone would be on guard against it. If he doesn't take action, it would definitely be good. If he does, then the situation will definitely develop in an unexpected direction. Of course, the reason I bet he will take action is not because he is the Prince of Jing, or because he will make some contribution to Zhou. Simply put, in order to prevent others from defeating the King of Zhou, this possibility is higher."
Wang Ye had to admit that Zhao Ziheng's analysis was very convincing. This was exactly where Zhou Yan was completely different from ordinary people. Even the brotherhood was not as strong as his personal destruction. So in order to prevent the Zhou Kingdom from falling into the hands of others, or to be more precise, not wanting Zhou Cheng to die at the hands of others, he might really take action. This was a very ironic answer.
"What on earth is he holding on to?"
Wang Ye suddenly said, as if talking to himself, but since the words had already been spoken, he could not say that he was not talking to Zhao Ziheng.
In fact, Zhao Ziheng also cares about this. He can't think of what Zhou Yan wants to do. If it was for Yinyin before, then he shouldn't let Yinyin go to him. But if it's not because of this, what else could it be? Zhao Ziheng knows very well the reason why Zhou Yan and Zhou Cheng turned against each other, but it seems unconvincing now. Zhao Ziheng admits that Zhou Yan had taken action since Yinyin's accident, but he hasn't taken any action so far. Of course, it's not just because he was discovered and it was difficult for him to find and take action. Putting these aside, what Zhao Ziheng cares about is why Zhou Yan insisted on turning against Zhou Cheng until now; if it's just on the surface now, Zhou Yan and Zhou Cheng are still brothers , Zhao Ziheng can be sure that Zhou Yan will never stand on the same front with Zhou Cheng. The reason is hard to say, and that's why Zhao Ziheng cares about it.
"Prince Jing is really a very difficult person to understand. Just when you think you know him well enough, he becomes incomprehensible again, or even you never understand him at all. He seems to be both unfathomable and unpredictable."
What Wang Ye said was not false or exaggerated, Zhao Ziheng agreed very much, but he was still puzzled. Why did Zhou Yan seem to be the type who was so impulsive and easily lost his rationality? This type of person is often easy to understand, if it were not Zhou Yan; anyone who is easily impulsive and loses his rationality is easy to be grasped, but Zhou Yan is an exception, so exceptional that neither Wang Ye nor Zhao Ziheng can capture his inner thoughts. The only thing that is certain is Zhou Yan's true love for Yin Yin.
"What does that person want?"
Zhao Ziheng spoke slowly, asking himself and Wang Ye. He had to say that he really cared, very much, because that man had an indissoluble obsession with Yin Yin. If Zhou Yan was really only obsessed with Yin Yin, then Zhao Ziheng might not care about it, but the fact was, what Zhou Yan wanted was the most important. In the past, Zhao Ziheng was almost certain that he wanted Yin Yin, but what about now? Zhao Ziheng was not sure or guaranteed, because all of Zhou Yan's actions were too beyond his imagination.
"Whatever you want will be exposed sooner or later. It's just a matter of time."
Wang Ye's words could be considered an answer, but his tone could not conceal the fact that he no longer wanted to continue this topic. As expected, Zhao Ziheng did not speak.
"It's useless to still worry about this issue now. I will let the Griffins around him keep a close eye on it. I hope we can get the answer we want."
After a pause, Wang Ye subconsciously added one more sentence as a supplement. There was no need to do so, but Wang Ye added it in order to make Zhao Ziheng feel at ease. Although Zhou Yan was worthy of attention, Zhao Ziheng was shouldering more than just this one thing after all. So Wang Ye could only share the burden and relieve Zhao Ziheng's worries with the attitude of sharing as much as possible.
"A lot has happened recently. I'm sorry to trouble you."
Zhao Ziheng responded indifferently, and it was not known whether he was being polite to Wang Ye or because he had something on his mind, but there seemed to be a sense of detachment in his tone; however, Wang Ye did not say anything, at least he did not think it was a bad thing.
