Chapter 133: The Pursuit of Happiness (5)
The sunset has disappeared, replaced by the night, and the night and day have completely alternated...
Zhao Ziheng and Feng Qinghan were facing forward, and at this moment they seemed to have an indescribable tacit understanding...
"When will we withdraw our troops?" Zhao Ziheng broke the silence first.
Feng Qinghan murmured: "Let's wait until this matter is over. If we withdraw our troops early, we don't know what that woman will do."
"...Xia Kingdom should not be destroyed." Zhao Ziheng said suddenly.
Feng Qinghan frowned slightly and said: "As long as they are not so stubborn."
"They are just being used, aren't they?" When Zhao Ziheng said this, his gaze had already turned to Feng Qinghan, as if he was speaking to him deliberately.
Meeting Zhao Ziheng's gaze, Feng Qinghan did not feel the slightest bit surprised or evasive. In fact, he did not care about the survival of the Xia Kingdom. At least he thought so. If he let the creature go, the prerequisite was that the other party did not do anything to get in the way.
"You seem to know something?" Feng Qinghan suddenly changed the subject and asked with a smile.
Zhao Ziheng looked at Feng Qinghan. He could not see anything unusual from Feng Qinghan's expression. Of course, he knew that Feng Qinghan was not the kind of person who would be shaken by anything. Even though he heard some things from Feng Qinghan, he still knew some other things, although they were just guesses.
"You killed Xia Ningshuang and Grand Tutor Jiang, right? And the former Weicheng Captain." Zhao Ziheng asked.
"You can say that." Feng Qinghan said bluntly.
"Why? Because of Shu'er?" These were just guesses before, but Zhao Ziheng still wanted to confirm it. Since Feng Qinghan knew that Yin Yin was Shu'er, there was no need for him to deliberately change his name.
Feng Qinghan tilted his head slightly, as if he was surprised by what Zhao Ziheng said, and he said: "Since you know everything, you should also know that they want to hurt her, right? Will you let them die? Or will you sit back and do nothing even if their existence threatens her?"
"So you killed them?" Zhao Ziheng did not directly answer the following question, but he couldn't stand Feng Qinghan's attitude of treating human life as worthless.
"Although it was not a direct order from me." Feng Qinghan didn't want to explain anything, he just happened to remember that at that time he did intend to let Canyun do this, the purpose was to eliminate all of Yinyin's enemies, of course not including a certain person. Once those people were eliminated, then if Yinyin was in danger again, that person would definitely be involved. At that time he just wanted to give her a chance, but he didn't expect that she was still not satisfied. Thinking of this, Feng Qinghan's lips curled up meaningfully.
Zhao Ziheng certainly didn't know what Feng Qinghan's meaningful smile meant. He just heard from Feng Qinghan that killing those people was not his order but it was related to him. Why did he do this? Zhao Ziheng certainly didn't know.
"I heard that the people behind the Xia army are from your Fenglang?" Zhao Ziheng changed the subject and told the information he got from Wang Ye.
"Don't you already know?" Feng Qinghan smiled, with the meaningful smile on his face still not gone.
Zhao Ziheng was silent. He should know that he cannot judge Feng Qinghan with common sense. He has experienced this before, but he was still surprised by Feng Qinghan's outspoken response. It seemed that he was unscrupulous, but in fact he seemed to be planning something. The faint smile on his face was a good explanation.
"The person you are talking about?" Zhao Ziheng asked almost with certainty.
"Who else could it be besides her?" Although Feng Qinghan thought it was a bit redundant for Zhao Ziheng to ask this, he still answered.
Zhao Ziheng should have guessed it long ago, but judging from Xia Ningshuang's death, Feng Qinghan did not intend to use Xia Kingdom, but was used by others instead. Regarding this, Zhao Ziheng wanted to know what Feng Qinghan was thinking. Zhao Ziheng once again thought that Feng Qinghan did things without thinking at all. In short, he was thoughtless and incomprehensible. He just did what he wanted to do. Although Xia Kingdom had no influence on him, Xia Kingdom was a powerful country after all. Just being involved in this war was very troublesome, especially bringing certain pressure to Zhou Kingdom.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ziheng discovered that if Feng Qinghan really wanted to attack the Zhou Kingdom, the Zhou Kingdom would have fallen long ago. It was not that he doubted the strength of the Zhou Kingdom, but that he could not underestimate Feng Qinghan's ability. Even though Zhao Ziheng had not witnessed Feng Qinghan's strength or ability with his own eyes, he had come into contact with him when they first met and had some understanding of him. Based on the rare contacts, Zhao Ziheng was very sure of this.
But then again, Zhao Ziheng still can't find the answer to why Feng Qinghan wanted to attack the Zhou Kingdom.
Zhao Ziheng suddenly asked: "Is she your subordinate?"
"Yeah." Feng Qinghan responded casually. It was not entirely right to say that he was a subordinate. However, thinking about that kind of relationship, Feng Qinghan felt that he had no right to criticize Zhao Ziheng. He actually made the same mistake as Zhao Ziheng. Was this the so-called "the person in charge is confused, but the bystander is clear"? This situation was really the first time in Feng Qinghan's history.
Seeing a faint self-deprecating smile on Feng Qinghan's face, Zhao Ziheng was a little confused. Despite this, Zhao Ziheng could sense from Feng Qinghan's inexplicable behavior that he and the subordinate must have an unusual relationship; otherwise, Zhao Ziheng couldn't think of any reason why Feng Qinghan would let things develop to this point. It was absolutely impossible to say that he didn't notice it. The only explanation was that there must be some kind of relationship between the two.
