"If you have any questions, ask me now. I don't have time to chat with you. Don't you see all the memorials on the table? If you don't have anything to ask, get out of here. I don't have any other business to send you on now!"
Seeing that the emperor was so angry, the two men hurriedly explained everything.
Let the emperor give an answer quickly, and then they will leave immediately.
"Your Majesty, where did you get that ice stone and flint?"
Chen Mang took the initiative and asked one of the questions he wanted to know most, but Zhao Xin on the opposite side was just thinking about it and didn't give any answer.
Chen Mang was a little disappointed now, but he still smiled and changed the subject.
"Why bring up this topic? I'm still thinking and don't know how to give you an answer. Besides, I got the stone by chance."
"What is opportunity? I don't need to explain it to you in detail. You should understand it yourself."
They themselves naturally understand this kind of coincidence, and they are afraid that it is something they will never hope for in their entire lives.
Besides, ice stone and flint are rare things.
But wasn't this thing at Feng's house before? How did he get it? Could it be that he really went to Feng's house and stole it as he said? That's also possible.
"Your Majesty, the only thing I don't understand is that this thing was clearly once in the Feng family, and there are also rumors that this ice stone is in the Evil Man's Mansion. How did it end up in your hands now? This is what I am most curious about, so I hope Your Majesty can give us an answer to resolve our doubts."
As he was talking, the person opposite him was beaming with joy and looked very curious.
Not only He Zhizhou, but even Chen Mang was curious.
If I got one of his flints, it would indeed be a coincidence, but how did I get the ice stone?
I don’t know either.
"I...you are just that curious, right?"
Before Zhao Xin could say anything, these two people stood there listening attentively, waiting for Zhao Xin to speak. They also wanted to hear what kind of coincidence allowed Zhao Xin to obtain both the fire stone and the ice stone at the same time.
"I only acquired this ice stone half a year ago, and it's almost out of sync with the present. Besides, you brought this thing to me specifically and said it was for me. Have you forgotten?"
Zhao Xin pointed at He Zhizhou's head, sarcastically saying that his head was full of water.
When did he really send it?
Wait, he got it mixed up. It was not this person, but Qi Peng. When he came to Daqin before, he inexplicably received a box with a note on it that said it was for Zhao Xin, so that person came.
"I remembered it wrongly. It wasn't you, it was the crown prince of Dongwu."
His memory really needs to be discussed and improved. The main thing is that he forgets everything and can't remember anything. It's really easy to make mistakes.
Besides, it happened half a year ago, who can remember it so clearly?
The words "crown prince of Wu" had confirmed their suspicions. It wasn't like Qi Peng had just delivered something to the palace under the pretext of returning it to its original owner; that was sheer nonsense.
It was obvious that Qi Peng sent someone to the Feng family, took out the things, and then gave them to Zhao Xin as a gift. I don't know what the trick was, or maybe he was just trying to please Zhao Xin aimlessly.
Little did they know... this thing was actually picked up by Qi Peng. Besides, he couldn't figure out what was going on with it, so he just gave it away without asking. After all... the box looked so ordinary. Even if he threw it on the street, no one would pick it up, and they'd probably kick it.
It's so dilapidated.
"No wonder, no wonder I don't have the opportunities that Your Majesty has. This is definitely someone I'm friendly with!"
He also understood. No wonder there were no such opportunities. It was because there was no one. No one was willing to please him, so...
To be honest, this thing was indeed someone else's gift, but the person being gifted was Qi Peng. Several ministers of the Eastern Wu had already conspired to give him a surprise, and then when this person opened it, they took the opportunity to praise him, so they stole all the things from the Feng family.
The most unexpected thing was that when Qi Peng saw that this thing could not be opened, he thought there was some mess inside, so he specially pasted a thing on it and gave it to Zhao Xin.
He was just acting as a third party. No matter how bad the situation was, or even if it was concealed by everyone, it could all be attributed to Zhao Xin.
Their original intention of offering gifts to the Buddha was in vain. No one expected Qi Peng to do this, but since he did it, they had no choice but to just let His Majesty be happy.
So this sentence tells people that if you want to have great opportunities, you must have a few good friends or even powerful people, otherwise this great opportunity will never fall on you.
Even if you were to succeed, you wouldn't be able to withstand the great opportunities and would be crushed to death. Meanwhile, someone like Zhao Xin, at the Great Emperor level, would know someone who, even if they weren't emperors, would be at least highly respected.
Most of the people they knew in the martial arts world were also people in the martial arts world. Even if they were powerful, they did not command over thousands of people like the emperor!
In the martial arts world, there are opportunities to meet talented people. If you happen to meet the emperor who has returned from his travels, it would be a great opportunity. However, who has the luck to meet the emperor? Besides, with the current war going on, the chances of meeting him are extremely small.
There is no need to think about powerful ministers; they would never appear in the palace.
Nowadays, companies like the Tiger Hall and the Divine Machine Ghost Machinery are now considered private industries, hidden industries that cannot be taken out. In addition, they can only cooperate with the emperor to do those blatant businesses, and the reason why they cooperate with the emperor is nothing more than one.
The main purpose is to turn both public and private interests into public ones.
As long as this land becomes public property, then whatever he does in the future will come naturally and he won't be as timid as he is now.
You also have to avoid being pursued by the so-called officers and soldiers.
As long as you are labeled as the emperor, there will be no problem.
Their primary purpose was to persuade Zhao Xin to make both of their families public, even if it was just to hang a sign, and they just hoped that Zhao Xin could directly hang a sign for them and make them the supreme commander.
When the two of them, as the leaders, directly made him the emperor's subordinate both publicly and privately, even if any war broke out, it would be related to Zhao Xin, and they could successfully shirk their guilt.
It's more or less beneficial to yourself.
