"But we are different. We have many choices. The people of Tianyuan can engage in commerce, farming, or enter officialdom, so the people here live a very happy life."

"If the people of Yunjiang could live as happily and freely as our people, would they still resent war? Would they still resent being subjects of Tianyuan?"

The emperor and Gu Jiangli remained silent for a long time.

Gu Jiangli stared at Yunwen's bright eyes, momentarily lost in thought.

She suddenly understood that some people who are destined to be remembered in history are different from ordinary people from a young age.

This child may one day become the emperor who unifies the world.

Gu Jiangli beckoned to Yunwen, who quickly snuggled into her arms, carefully avoiding touching her stomach.

"Yunwen, do you really want Yunjiang to become part of Tianyuan?"

Yunwen nodded, "I think so. If that's the case, Mother's hometown is in Tianyuan, so maybe she won't miss home so much, and it will be much more convenient to go home."

Hearing his naive and innocent words, Gu Jiangli couldn't help but laugh.

His purpose was pure, simple, and non-aggressive.

Perhaps he truly didn't understand the meaning of war, nor did he grasp what the ownership of territory meant. This child simply wanted to make it easier for himself to return to his hometown, nothing more.

If this is the natural course of things, she won't stop it.

She gently pinched Yunwen's nose and said affectionately, "Then Yunwen, go ahead and do it. This is Yunwen's wish, and it will come true one day."
