"I just got back today. It took me a long time to get back from the Western Continent. Actually, I was on my way back more than half a year ago, but I just wasted a lot of time."
Liang Jing was lost in thought when he heard this. He looked at Lu Yun, looked at his face, and couldn't help but move forward and kissed him on the mouth, "I miss you."
"You're such a bad person."
Lu Yun didn't hesitate either. After a long while, the two of them let go of each other. "Did anything happen while I was away?"
"You mentioned something so serious happening. Our Great Zhou is gone, the general is gone, and now we're all alone. The people are living quite well, working and living in peace and contentment every day, and..."
"I suddenly realized that the Han Empire destroyed all the vassal states and made all the people follow a unified standard. It's actually quite good."
"For the people, this is something they enjoy talking about, and with unified management, they will no longer be affected by natural disasters or man-made calamities."
“That’s actually good…”
Lu Yun understood the meaning of what Liang Jing said. It was simply that he felt that the current Han Empire was extremely powerful and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
If they want revenge and want to go to war, it may have some impact on the people, but Lu Yun doesn't think so.
"I know what you mean. It's normal for the Han Empire to destroy all the vassal states and hold power in its own hands."
"This is also a trend. Holding great power is like owning the Western Factory during the Great Zhou Dynasty. Only with power in hand can you do more and truly serve the people."
"But don't forget how many of our relatives they killed when they did this. This incident has had a huge impact on us."
"Besides, I was in control of the Qin Dynasty back then and I destroyed all the vassal states. Won't you help me restore the Qin Dynasty?"
Hearing this, Liang Jing sighed softly and explained helplessly: "Of course I want to, but the hope is slim.
The Han Empire today is no longer what it once was. They not only possess tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but also many martial arts masters."
"Under these circumstances, it's really difficult for us to win. It's almost impossible."
Liang Jing hesitated for a moment before speaking out his true thoughts.
She believed that the Han Empire was now so powerful that it was invincible. Moreover, they did not have many soldiers and horses, so there was a huge gap in numbers.
Lu Yun, on the other hand, had a very calm expression as he explained to her, "Do you think I'd be so foolish? How could I possibly do something I wasn't sure of? I've brought tens of thousands of soldiers and horses with me this time, plus the cavalry from the grasslands."
"Besides, didn't you take some soldiers with you when you left? By combining these, we can at least take back our former Great Zhou territory!"
Liang Jing was stunned for a moment, and for some reason he suddenly felt a little surprised. Then he said, "Of course we can, but we must first ensure that after we take over the territory, there will be no Great Zhou, only Great Qin!"
"I am willing to support Daqin."
"What do you think?"
Lu Yun was stunned for a moment, sighed, and then said, "Are you really willing to give up the Great Zhou? In fact, if we can really restore the Great Qin, I think the vassal states are a very good way to manage them."
Liang Jing couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this and shook his head, "Don't comfort me here. Don't think I don't know what you think in your heart. You also think that it is right to have no vassal states."
"The core of the state governance strategy you taught me was that the emperor must monopolize power and not allow it to be divided! Otherwise, everything the emperor does and thinks will be rejected by the ministers."
"The same is true for the vassal states. The existence of these vassal states will make the Han Empire's right to speak very unimportant!"
"Even if you could really establish the Great Qin, you would never want this to happen."
Lu Yun hesitated at this moment, sighed, and said helplessly: "Have you really decided?"
"So what do you think? After the defeat, I thought about many things, and in the end, I made only one decision: not being the emperor is actually quite good. Look, I'm not the emperor, I'm happy and free every day, isn't it good?"
"After I stop being emperor, I can go wherever I want and do whatever I want. No one can stop me."
"You don't have to worry about so many things. You don't have to think about how to govern the country, how to make the Great Zhou more prosperous, and how to prevent foreign invasions."
Lu Yun listened to her words and felt a lot of emotions in his heart. Liang Jing is now completely different from before.
Perhaps she really let go of the obsession in her heart, let go of the so-called power, and let go of everything about the Great Zhou.
Being a female emperor was indeed not easy for her. The palace was like a big cage and the burden on her shoulders was very heavy. It was not something that ordinary people could easily do.
"Perhaps future kings will think that I am a king who lost his country."
Lu Yun stepped forward, shook his head, and explained to Liang Jing, "How could you be the king of a fallen country? How could a king of a fallen country still be alive? You are not. You are my woman."
"If you want to be emperor, just say a word."
"Don't joke, I don't want to be an emperor. Look at Bai Xiaoxiao, she's so tired being the queen of the grasslands now. If she becomes the queen of our Central Plains, it will definitely be even more tiring."
As he spoke, Liang Jing leaned back into Lu Yun's arms, feeling the heat of his chest.
She was very happy at this moment and felt that she was the happiest woman in the world. Her man was back and everything was not so painful.
"Lu Yun, actually, when I think about it now, I still hate you. Your identity has just been revealed, and your identity as a man can finally be made public."
"You declare in public that you are my man. I will support you unconditionally. I will let the entire Great Zhou help you restore the Great Qin."
"You chose to abandon me and leave... and you even provoked me, making me temporarily forget about you. I didn't even enjoy a single day. You really are..."
Lu Yun smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm very sorry. I just wanted to get Liang Jing out of danger as soon as possible and not get involved."
"Then have you ever thought that after you left, the final result would still be the same. I would have almost lost my life if I hadn't prepared in advance."
