Perseus was very anxious.

"I hope to see your king. The situation in the Western Regions is very critical now. I have left my country for a long time. My country and people are eagerly looking forward to the reinforcements of Zhao!"

Perseus was indeed quite anxious. After all, no matter who was placed under house arrest for several days and then lost contact with all his subordinates, he would definitely become anxious.

However, no matter how Perseus found a way to persuade the guards of Zhao State in front of him, these men in black were completely unmoved, and even had no change in expression.

After a few days, Perseus's mood became more and more depressed.

This is going to be finished.

Perseus sat in a chair, weakly speaking to the only subordinate who was accompanying him in front of him: "Ales, what do you think the people of Zhao want to do to us?"

Aless, who had been acting as a translator, was stunned for a moment, then shook his head blankly: "Dear Perseus, Aless doesn't know what these Zhao people want to do. You also know that Zhao people will not reveal any situation in front of us."

Perseus sighed and said nothing for a long time.

At this time, Perseus suddenly regretted his mission.

Perhaps, we should have come to this land after we have learned more about Zhao State, rather than being so hasty, and traveling rashly for the sake of credit by relying on the words of some prisoners and merchants.

At this moment, suddenly a sound of footsteps came.

Perseus was refreshed and looked at the door.

The door was opened and three people appeared in front of Perseus.

Perseus recognized him all at once. One of them was Mao Sui, the "Diplomatic Manager" of Zhao who appeared in front of him that day.

However, Mao Sui stood respectfully behind a man in his thirties in his thirties. The man looked like a superior, with a majestic eyebrows between his eyebrows.

Next to this noble man in Zhao State was another man in red. Just from his steps, Perseus could feel that this man had been through the battlefield for a long time and should be a general.

Perseus did not dare to neglect and stood up in a hurry.

Mao Sui introduced: "This is our great traveler Zheng Zhu, and this is our great governor of the northern Zhao State, Li Mu. They came to communicate with the envoys on the order of our king."

"Li Mu?" After listening to Ales' translation, Perseus showed a look of surprise on his face.

Li Mu's name Perseus is very impressive. After all, this is a name that all the Xiongnu prisoners captured by the Seleucids were very scared. Whenever this name was mentioned, the Xiongnu's behavior seemed to be a ghost.

So Perseus naturally knew that Li Mu was the famous general of Zhao who defeated the Huns and forced the Huns to move westward.

But what surprised Perseus even more was that with Li Mu's status, he could only stand by the side of "Zheng Zhu" and act as a supporting role.

It seems that Zheng Zhu must be a big shot in Zhao State.

So Perseus did not dare to neglect and hurriedly bowed: "Pelseus has seen two adults."

In fact, if Perseus could understand Zhao State better, he would know that Mao Sui and Li Mu had no need to be so respectful to the real Zheng Zhu, and he would also know that Zheng Zhu was actually over fifty years old and was not so young at all.

It’s a pity that Perseus has been under house arrest since he arrived in Handan and has no way to find out any news about Zhao State.

This "Zheng Zhu" is actually Zhao Dan, the king of Zhao State.

Zhao Dan smiled and greeted Perseus to sit down, and then said to Perseus: "I heard that Perseus envoy wanted to join forces with our country to attack the Huns?"

After listening to the translation, Perseus was so excited that he hurriedly said, "Dear Lord, that's exactly what it is. The Huns brazenly invaded our Seleucid land and killed our people. We urgently hope to get help from the powerful Zhao State." After that, he bowed to Zhao Dan repeatedly, and his pleading was beyond words.

Zhao Dan looked at Perseus with a begging face, and his heart was not at all disturbed.

What a joke, it is definitely impossible for this person who is empty-mouthed and wants to send troops.

Perseus's eyes mainly fell on Zhao Dan, but when he found that Zhao Dan was completely unmoved, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Perseus thought for a while and said earnestly: "We heard that the Huns were also the mortal enemy of Zhao. Can the powerful Zhao State tolerate the Huns becoming stronger again by plundering our people and land? If that is the case, the Huns will definitely cause great trouble to Zhao State again in the future."

Zhao Dan finished listening to the translation with a smile, and then said, "Mr. Perseus, what I want to remind you is that the Huns are now trouble for Ru Seleugu, not for my Zhao State."

Perseus was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhao Dan who was smiling in front of him, as if he understood something, and showed a bitter smile helplessly: "The noble Antioch II has already spoken. As long as the powerful King of Zhao is willing to send troops to help us, we can provide some materials within our ability as a thank you for the troops sent by Zhao."

Perseus is also a smart person. He knows that since he can't persuade the people of Zhao to send troops with his mouth, he can only throw out the ultimate killing weapon.

Zhao Dan smiled and said, "Materials? Mr. Perseus, you will be free soon. Then you will know that materials are not a big problem for us in Zhao."

When Zhao Dan said this, he could be said to be full of confidence.

Perseus was silent and after a long time, he said, "Since that's the case, then I don't know what your king wants?"

Zhao Dan said in a very affirmative tone without thinking: "Land! My king's request is very simple. All the land occupied by the Huns and then seized by us must belong to our Zhao State after the war."

When Perseus heard Zhao Dan’s words, he felt a sense of joy coming from the sky and wanting to laugh wildly.

You should know that at the beginning, Perseus came to ask for help with the Zhao people who were absolutely impossible to keep the Western Regions mentality. As a result, the Zhao people now don’t need supplies or food, but they only need land. Isn’t this exactly what Perseus wants?

But on the surface, Perseus was still very entangled and thought for a long time, then bargained with Zhao Dan, and then agreed.
