When Li Junyan heard this, he looked at Sang Jueqian with a twinkle in his eyes.
So this is what it feels like to be the apple of someone’s eye!
No matter what happens, the first thing the other person worries about is themselves.
Although Li Junyan was still in a heavy mood, he couldn't help but feel happy.
Li Junyan raised his hand and touched Sang Jueqian's head. "Qianqian, don't worry about these things. As long as cement becomes a material that can be used by the people of Da Zhou, everything will be fine."
After saying that, Sang Jueqian actually felt a moment of regret.
She also knew that she was being too concerned and confused.
But I can't control it.
Now, after hearing Li Junyan's comfort and explanation, Sang Jueqian felt a little relieved.
"Lezhi, what are you going to do?"
If Li Junyan were in Chang'an, there might be a solution.
But Li Junyan is now far away in Xizhou, 18,000 miles away from Chang'an.
It takes three days just to deliver the message, and it is even more difficult to solve such a difficult matter!
“Although I am not in Chang’an and the court has just been purged, it is not the emperor’s sole authority.
When the news came back, some ministers had already begun to oppose it.
The emperor wants stability in the court. Even if he enjoys the cement alone, he cannot overly demonstrate his nobility. He will not let the cement be enjoyed exclusively by him.
The reason he hesitated now, and let everyone know that it was the Crown Prince and King Jing who jointly wrote a letter to stop him, was just to step on them and show his benevolence."
Sang Jueqian listened to Li Junyan's words, his mind racing, "If that's the case, then the Crown Prince and Prince Jing are both trying to stop the Emperor, don't they also have other motives?
If the emperor really agrees, then the people of the world will think that the emperor is heartless and has abandoned the people, and is not a good emperor..."
The more Sang Jueqian spoke, the lower his voice became, and the more complicated his feelings became.
As expected of a royal father and son, both of them have eight hundred thoughts in their heads!
It seems that they are all considering the other person, but in fact they are all thinking about themselves.
After sorting out this information in his mind for a while, Sang Jueqian said uncertainly, "Lezhi, according to what you just said, if you do nothing, will the final outcome of this matter also be good?"
Li Junyan shook his head and said, "I can be sure that the result will not be different from my expectations, but I don't know when this game will end.
As the summer flood season is getting closer, if we don’t start construction quickly, the people will still suffer this year.
So, I plan to go to the South.”
Sang Jueqian was originally leaning against the window. When he heard Li Junyan's words, he sat up straight in an instant, "What?"
It’s no wonder Sang Jueqian was so excited. It was really hard for her not to be nervous about this matter.
Although Li Junyan had previously left his fiefdom Tingzhou without permission and came to Xizhou.
However, the distance between the two state capitals is not very far, and both are remote.
The emperor is far away and as long as someone is determined to keep it secret, there is no way Chang'an will get the news.
But if Li Junyan wanted to go south from the Western Zhou Dynasty, it would be equivalent to directly crossing the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, and he might even pass through Chang'an.
The journey was long, and the hardships along the way seemed less important. What mattered was his safety.
If any of his whereabouts were leaked and known to the Crown Prince or King Jing, Li Junyan would be in danger.
Sang Jueqian didn't want Li Junyan to go.
But looking at his expression and gazing into his eyes, I couldn't say a word of objection.
"Qianqian, even if I'm just an ordinary citizen of the Great Zhou, if I have the ability to help the people of the Great Zhou and make their lives better, I will do my best.
Not to mention, I was born a prince, lived a life of luxury since childhood, and now I have been named Prince of Chen.
Now that I know how to avoid or combat floods and protect the people, I can't pretend not to know.
I also cannot watch the people lose their homes and die because of the game of imperial power.
I want to go to the south, and then you can help me get the cement and start building the dam directly, maybe we can still make it in time."
When Li Junyan said this, his voice was neither hurried nor slow, and he told everything slowly.
But every word he said was like a drumstick hitting a drum, making a deafening sound.
Sang Jueqian was greatly shocked.
The first thing she was worried about was Li Junyan's safety, not how many people Li Junyan could save.
I used to always hear people say and see news online that heroes are worthy of admiration and their families are also worthy of admiration.
That's something I still don't quite understand.
But at this moment, Sang Jueqian truly understood what empathy meant.
Even though you know that doing something will be dangerous and may even cost your life, you still cannot stop it and even have to provide your own strength for it.
It is inevitable to feel bitterness, tension, and reluctance in the heart.
There is still some resentment, resentment towards the emperor, the crown prince and King Jing.
If the emperor could act like an emperor and the prince could act like a prince, King Jing would know what he should do and Li Junyan would not have to take risks.
After Li Junyan finished speaking, he stared at Sang Jueqian, waiting for Sang Jueqian's answer, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't get it.
"Qianqian..."
Li Junyan was about to say something when Sang Jueqian put a surgical finger to his lips.
“Lezhi, there’s no need to say anything, and there’s no need to ask for my opinion.
Just do whatever you want to do!
It is a blessing for the people of Da Zhou to have you.
