Hua Qichuan's kneeling was understandable.
But just as he thought, he couldn't change the empress's decision.
Song Junzhan: "Mr. Hua, you're worrying too much. Yundan will not disappear. It's still called Yundan."
"Beicang was divided into Beijiang Province and Cangnan Province, and Yue State was divided into Yuexi, Yuedong, and Pingchuan Provinces. Yundan is not big, so it will be merged into a complete province in the future and still be called Yundan."
"Besides, it's useless for you to refuse. Hua Jinchuan has already received the order."
Hua Qichuan had just arrived in Longsheng and didn't know much about it, but Hua Jinchuan had been here for many years and had witnessed the country's prosperity with his own eyes.
When he went to the Ministry of Revenue, he was deeply influenced by the atmosphere of officialdom. Instead of going home, his mind was full of taking this opportunity to rise from a temporary worker to a regular worker, and then climb up to become a member of the superpower and prosperous Mingxi era.
Xiao Li asked someone to hang up another map with various lines crisscrossing on it, just like the veins of the human body.
"This is my business territory. You know my factories. In the future, my factories will only become more numerous and larger. They will be distributed at these nodes, extending in all directions and spread all over the world."
"From now on, each province will be managed by a Chamber of Commerce, and the Zhili Empress will control all commercial rights in the area."
Lan Yue held a tray and presented a token.
Xiao Li: "This is Yundan's token from now on, my thank you gift."
Hua Qichuan had no choice.
"Your Majesty, I, Hua Qichuan, bow in gratitude!"
Except for the step of entering the palace voluntarily, every step thereafter was beyond his expectations and beyond his control.
Everyone could see Hua Qichuan's reluctance, but there was no rush.
Song Junzhan called two people over and said, "Master Hua has come from afar, please take him on a tour."
When Hua Qichuan sees what the prosperous era of the Empress is and sees this brand new world, he will know the weight of the token given by the Empress.
Hua Qichuan withdrew, but he obviously did not understand Song Junzhan's painstaking efforts. He directly got rid of the two leaders and went to find Hua Jinchuan himself.
Hua Jinchuan was busy, but when he heard Hua Qichuan coming, he immediately stopped what he was doing and came out to meet him.
"Brother, why are you here?"
Hua Qichuan's face was gloomy. He pulled him to a corner and asked, "Why did you accept the order to persuade Yun Dan to surrender?"
"You don't know who the king is. Do you think you can persuade him?"
"Yundan is our country. Do you want to destroy it with your own hands?"
Hua Qichuan asked three questions in a row, which made Hua Jinchuan stunned for a while.
After Qi Chuan had vented his anger, he suddenly laughed.
"Brother, what are you talking to me about?"
Qi Chuan said angrily: "Don't play dumb with me. Do you know that if you do this, you will become Yundan's eternal sinner?"
Hua Jinchuan's smile faded, and he raised his hand to push Qi Chuan's hand away: "Brother, have you forgotten why I am here?"
Qi Chuan's expression froze. "Brother... aren't I trying to bring you back? I saved the Empress' life, so it's not difficult to bring you back. I just need to wait for the right time to ask. Who knew that before I even opened my mouth, you accepted the order to persuade me to surrender? Why didn't you ask me?"
Hua Jinchuan smiled sadly: "When I was sent to Longsheng, didn't the king ask you?"
He took a deep breath. "I was sent to Longsheng like a pet. The Empress is known for her cruelty. Don't you have any idea of what I might have to endure? But the King chose me, and after much persuasion, you agreed. Brother, you agreed!"
"It's because Your Majesty is not lustful that he just threw us into the harem and left us alone. It's because the Prime Minister is willing to give me a chance, so that I can walk uprightly among these officials."
"Brother, the fact that you can see me is my own luck and the Empress's kindness. It has nothing to do with Yun Dan."
"He, Hua Lin, treated me like a commodity to be traded. Why should I still recognize him as my king? Why should I still care about him?"
"The Empress wanted the Cloud Pill. What she took away was only the royal power and kingdom of Hualin. What does that have to do with me?"
"When Yundan sent me to Longsheng, why didn't you tell me that I was Yundan's benefactor? Now that I've been ordered to persuade them to surrender, I'm a sinner, right?"
"You should have seen the Empress's policy. Yundan is still here, and my family is still here. It's just that Hualin has lost the throne. I have nothing to lose. Even if Yundan becomes part of Longsheng territory, I can take the imperial examination as a Longsheng citizen and become a real official. Why shouldn't I agree?"
Hua Jinchuan looked at his brother coldly.
His brother is Yundan's minister and is still considering Yundan, but he has never thought that Hua Jinchuan has been sent out like an object, so how can he continue to be loyal to Yundan?
He didn't hate his brother's family. They were forced to agree by the royal power, but couldn't he hate Hua Lin?
In the past, Hua Lin used the royal power to force him to come to Yundan to be the empress's plaything. Now that he has obtained the authority granted by the empress, why can't Hua Lin also experience the feeling of oppression by power?
Seeing his brother's shocked face, Hua Jinchuan knew that he had failed to convince him.
There has never been true empathy in this world.
If it weren't for these three years, even his brother would have thought he was enjoying himself here.
"Brother, if you still want to recognize me as your brother, don't worry about these things."
"Everyone knows that the Empress wants to unify the world. Yun Dan can't escape. If it's not me, then it will be someone else."
"I have always wanted to serve as an official in Longsheng and make great achievements. I will not let anyone else have this honor."
Hua Jinchuan set off, and after three years, he returned home in glory with the empress's imperial edict and power.
Seize the throne and avenge the past hatred.
Hua Qichuan chased to the city gate and opened his mouth several times, but in the end he couldn't shout out.
