Through Time Chapter 422

Zhao Long followed Nu all the way to a room where Zhang Er was waiting for him.

As soon as he entered, Zhang Er saluted and said.

“Greetings, King Zhao.”

Zhao Lang looked at the much thinner Zhang Er in front of him and returned, with a pleasant smile.

“You have worked hard, you have been running around for so long, is your body still bearing up?”

Hearing Zhao Lang’s words, Zhang Er could not help but be slightly stunned.

He had done work under Zhao Xie.

The other side had actually treated him well.

But if it was Zhao Xie this time, I’m afraid the first thing he would have to ask is how things were done.

If it was done well, there would naturally be a commendation.

If it was not done well, there would have been a small reprimand, if not a punishment.

They will not really have a problem with it. It is normal to reward and punish in moderation.

But how would you not meet and ask if your body can stand it.

To be honest, if Zhao Lang hadn’t ended Chen Yu with a single shot in the first place, Zhang Er would have had to be grateful to Zhao Lang for the words he just said.

But now, he felt that the other party was becoming more and more terrifying!

So he hurriedly returned and

“Thank you, King Zhao, for your concern, I can still bear it.”

Zhao Lang smiled at this time and

“No need to be nervous, you and I were hostile before and it was good that I was merciless.”

“But now, you work for me, so naturally you won’t be harsh.”

“Well, how are things going?”

Hearing the question about business, Zhang Er quickly returned that

“I have contacted many of the surviving clans of Zhao, and now that the world is in flux, everyone is willing to follow the descendants of the Zhao clan.”

“Only…”

Zhao Lang narrowed his eyes slightly and said that

“But there’s no harm in saying so.”

It was then that Zhang Er returned and

“It’s just that people are suspicious of your identity, and the clan says they haven’t found out who you are.”

“Those jade pendants you took out, although they are from the royal family of Zhao, are recorded as being from the line of Zhao Xie.”

“Therefore, unless you can verify your identity, the Zhao legacy clan will not fully support you.”

“This time, even the elders of Zhao’s largest clan have come.”

“And quite a few are looking for Zhao Jie, while others want to launch other Zhao sons and daughters.”

Zhao Lang frowned as he listened.

Sure enough, these clans were not that easy to fool.

The other royal families could only recognise if it was a royal jade pendant or not.

These clans, surprisingly, are still on record.

It is indeed a little excessive.

The wisdom of the ancients is not to be underestimated.

Soon, Zhao Lang nodded his head and said

“I know, go and tell them that they can verify their identity tomorrow.”

Zhao Long did not choose to delay.

Since he couldn’t avoid it, he might as well face it earlier.

If he became a success, he would be able to use Zhao’s resources in name only. It was indeed a bit difficult for him to use his current snow salt, and the proceeds from the grassland alone, without his old man’s monetary support.

If it doesn’t work out, he will use Zhao Jie as a puppet and take the money from Zhao just the same, just a few more links in between.

Soon after, Zhang Er saluted and left.

Zhao Lang also quickly arranged everything down.

Zhao Jie was also to be received in the county to make second-hand preparations.

Early the next morning, Zhao Lang led the men to prepare for a meeting with the Zhao clan.

Only when he reached the door did he see that Hai and Man had followed him.

Zhao Long thought for a moment that there was no need to hide this matter from the two of them, and after giving them a few instructions, he also set off with his men.

Soon, a few people arrived outside a large manor house, led by Zhang Er.

“My lord, the people of the Zhao clan are all inside.”

Outside, Zhang Er still called Zhao Lang as his gongzi.

Zhao Lang looked at the clan in front of him and was slightly surprised that

“The state of Zhao has been destroyed, and the Zhao clan actually still has this kind of strength?”

Hearing this question, Zhang Er felt slightly strange, this King of Zhao was quite knowledgeable, how could he ask such a common question that all the great clans knew?

But still, he patiently explained that

“My lord, the royal family of Zhao belongs to the Zhao clan, but the Zhao clan is not limited to the royal family of Zhao.”

Zhang Er lowered his voice again and said.

“To put it mildly, it is that tyrant of today who is also a descendant of the Zhao clan.”

Only after hearing the other party’s words did Zhao Lang then faintly understand that Zhao was still very strong.

If he could really get the other party’s support, money-wise, it would be a lot easier.

And there was no need to feel pain when using it.

Soon, several people arrived at the door, and a servant in green opened it, saying that

“There must not be too many people entering this place; the others are waiting outside.”

Zhao Lang gave the slave a look, and the slave slowly retreated at once.

Once Zhao Lang had entered, he led the men to spread out in all directions.

Without Zhao Lang’s order, no one in here would be able to leave.

By now, Zhao Lang had already led his men inside the manor, and once he entered, he saw the large courtyard of the main hall.

Many people, mostly old people, had already stood there.

When they saw Zhao Lang, each of them looked at him with a few moments of scrutiny.

In particular, the old man at the head of the group still had a few moments of surprise in his eyes, he had not expected that the young man he had met yesterday who was quite tactful.

It was actually Zhao Lang who claimed to be the descendant of the Zhao Clan!

Without any unnecessary pleasantries, the old man quickly said that

“You are the Zhao Lang who claims to be after the Zhao Clan and has inherited the title of King Zhao?”

Zhao Lang returned, calm and collected.

“It is none other than my king.”

The old man shook his head slowly and

“You are not sure of your identity yet, there is no need to call yourself king first.”

Zhao Lang laughed and

“Whether the king calls himself king or not, however, is none of your business!”

Hearing these words, the Zhao clansmen around them were all slightly stunned, they hadn’t expected it.

The other party was actually so domineering.

The old man said with a frown.

“Without clan recognition, you are nothing more than a false king, and the people of the Zhao clan will not support you.”

Zhao Lang knew that the other party was telling the truth and said coldly that

“How will you be identified?”

The old man said indifferently.

“Zhao Lang, we are in the Zhao clan tree, the Zhao King lineage, but there is no such person to be found.”

“How do you explain that?”

Zhao Lang bristled in his heart, he would be damned if there was a him.

However, he had a countermeasure in mind, and with a deliberate hint of embarrassment on his face, he said that

“This matter, however, the king has a reason, because the king is the illegitimate son of his father.”

“My king has had some dementia since he was young, so my father did not tell the clan. ”

Hearing this explanation, the old man was slightly stunned, but did not adopt it, but continued to ask

“In that case, are there any proofs? The jade pendants you had Zhang Er bring back earlier, however, all belonged to the lineage of Zhao She.”

Zhao Lang cheekily returned that

“This king is but an illegitimate son, how can I have any proof.”

In fact, Zhao Lang really had a jade pendant that he always carried with him, which should have been given to him by his cheap old father.

But this could not be taken out, for sure.

After all, there were no credentials and it was still hard to hold on to.

The old man frowned, and then asked the

“And what was your father’s name?”

The clan’s genealogy, all of which has its origins, can be traced by name.

When he heard this extremely simple question, Zhao Lang was violently stunned for a moment.

It seemed that he had really overlooked one more thing that

Damn, what was his cheap old man’s name again?
