Chapter 140: The Fury of the Two Heroes (2)
After ignoring Feng Qinghan's attitude, Huan Ling turned her attention to Zhao Ziheng again. She didn't believe that Zhao Ziheng would forget her face, but Zhao Ziheng's reaction was far beyond her expectations. Of course, she was also very surprised by Zhao Ziheng's appearance, so she said: "I wonder what the King of Zhao is here for?"
As soon as he spoke, he came straight to the point. Huan Ling believed that Zhao Ziheng was not a person who beat around the bush, so she didn't say any nonsense. In fact, this sentence was still nonsense, because it was not Zhao Ziheng who answered her, but Feng Qinghan's laughter. Then she heard Feng Qinghan say: "What? How long has it taken you to learn to play dumb?"
There was obviously something else in these words, which meant that Huan Ling could play dumb in front of anyone, but it was meaningless to play dumb in front of Feng Qinghan. Fortunately, the question was asked to Zhao Ziheng, so Feng Qinghan did not point it out explicitly. It was fine as long as he understood it.
Huan Ling was already surprised that Feng Qinghan and Zhao Ziheng were traveling together, and she was even more surprised when Feng Qinghan replied on behalf of Zhao Ziheng. She really wanted to know when and how these two people got together. In fact, this question didn't need to be asked at all.
Huan Ling pursed her lips and stroked her lower lip with her hand and smiled: "So that's how it is. If that's the case, it's not hard to understand."
Feng Qinghan and Zhao Ziheng were not surprised by Huan Ling's irrelevant answer. Instead, they reacted surprisingly calmly. Feng Qinghan said, "Since you understand, don't waste your time. Since I'm here, shouldn't you hand the person over? The conditions are whatever you want."
"When did you become so impatient?" Huan Ling said faintly.
"I've always been worried about you." Feng Qinghan said with a smile.
The implication was something else, both you and I knew it. Suddenly, Huan Ling was speechless. She could only make some guesses about Feng Qinghan's statement, after all, it was Feng Qinghan who said it.
At this time, Zhao Ziheng, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke up: "Where is she?"
Huan Ling and Feng Qinghan looked over at the same time. Zhao Ziheng didn't want to be so hasty, but since he saw that they were talking in the same way, he just got straight to the point. Although Feng Qinghan was not as direct as Zhao Ziheng, he was not much different.
Huan Ling was stunned at first by Zhao Ziheng's directness, but soon calmed down and said: "Is it okay? As the king of a country, you actually came all the way to the enemy's base camp ."
The threat implied in Huanling's words was obvious. Even if he didn't say so, I believe everyone would understand the reason behind it. Not to mention the danger, this action alone was not in line with the demeanor of a monarch.
Despite this, Zhao Ziheng remained calm and said: "I am no longer the King of Zhao."
Hearing this, Huan Ling could no longer hide his surprise. He widened his eyes with a look of shock, while Feng Qinghan just watched as if he had known about it for a long time.
"You..." Huan Ling wanted to say something but didn't know where to start. The surprise that Zhao Ziheng brought to her was too shocking. Not to mention his arrival, his body should have collapsed long ago. However, what shocked her the most was Zhao Ziheng's words. Although they sounded simple, she didn't understand the meaning of them.
Feng Qinghan looked at Huan Ling's changing expression with interest and said with a smile: "Don't understand? Then let me explain. When he came with me, he was no longer the King of Zhao."
Huan Ling still looked at Zhao Ziheng with her eyes wide open, as if she wanted to hear what Zhao Ziheng had to say, but Zhao Ziheng just looked at her with an indifferent attitude, as if he didn't care about the matter, but was waiting for her to answer the question he asked.
"What's going on?" Huanling finally came to her senses and couldn't help but ask. Huanling thought she had good self-control, but Zhao Ziheng's matter seemed to have brought her more than just shock. Even though Feng Qinghan explained it, Huanling still wanted to know the details, or wanted to hear Zhao Ziheng's personal explanation.
This time Feng Qinghan didn't say anything, just looked at the two of them.
Zhao Ziheng thought about it and replied: "I have done what I should do, and the rest can be done by others, so there is no need to continue to be king."
What should be done? Feng Qinghan wanted to ask this.
After hearing what Zhao Ziheng said, Huanling digested it for a while before gradually understanding it. She could certainly feel that Zhao Ziheng was not lying. It should be said that Zhao Ziheng was a person who disdained to lie. Like Feng Qinghan, Huanling did not know what to do, but the rest of the things... Huanling suddenly laughed and said: "Does the rest of the things also include the princess? Did he choose to give up being a king for her sake?"
"It's not that I have no choice. I had no intention of becoming king from the beginning. Of course, I don't deny how much I owe her since I became king." Zhao Ziheng blurted out without thinking, as if he was eager to clarify, because he didn't want people to misunderstand that it was Yin Yin's fault, which would only bring unnecessary gossip to Yin Yin.
Feng Qinghan's smile deepened at Zhao Ziheng's answer, but only for a moment. As for Huanling, she did know that there must be an unusual relationship between Zhao Ziheng and Yinyin, but she had never expected it to be so. Even people who knew nothing about it could hear that Zhao Ziheng was defending Yinyin in his words, but it was precisely because of this that Huanling couldn't figure it out. She looked at Zhao Ziheng steadily, trying to find out something from him, but she didn't know if Zhao Ziheng hid it too well, or if it was a matter of course for Zhao Ziheng, and she couldn't tell whether it was favoritism or love.
"Where is she?" Seeing that Huan Ling didn't say anything, Zhao Ziheng repeated it again. He, who always disliked repetition and was serious, showed persistence in this matter, which surprised everyone who knew him. At the same time, they also understood the importance of Yin Yin to him.
Zhao Ziheng believes that what needs to be faced must be faced. He has avoided it too many times and does not want to avoid it anymore. After the burden on his shoulders is removed, he is fearless and admits everything.
