Yuzhou, Xinzheng City.
Within the Zheng Kingdom's imperial palace, Emperor Zheng Lian received news that Chu and Liang were confronting each other in Yangxia County and Jiaodong County and could engage in battle at any moment. He immediately summoned a group of ministers.
"Good, very good!"
In the study, Zheng Lian's face showed excitement as he paced back and forth. "Chu State and Liang going to war, the borders of Yuqing engulfed in flames. As long as Chu's million-strong army is not wiped out, Liang shall never dream of invading our Zheng Kingdom again."
"Your servant congratulates Your Majesty! With Chu State as our shield, our great Zheng's western borders will henceforth be without worry."
"Chu State entering the trap is all thanks to His Majesty's schemes. We had our doubts before, but now we truly feel ashamed."
"Of course, His Majesty is the Heavenly Son, with extraordinary intellect—how could we mere mortals compare?"
