Chapter 214: Concerning the Fortune

Actually, this matter truly concerns the fortune of our Great Xia; for our Great Xia, it has far too many extremely important connections.

And you, after your mutual connection with Xi Yue, have brought me a joy that is even more unpredictable, ah.

Your marriage is of utmost importance to our Great Xia.

I and the Empress Dowager have always worried about you; Xi Yue has gone to keep the Empress Dowager company, so you can rest assured—after all, Xi Yue in the palace can still receive better protection.

Yun Fengyun gazed at Yang Jun and spoke in a low voice.

In response to those words, Yang Jun nodded slightly.

Thank you, Father Emperor, for your kindness; I, your subject, understand.

While speaking, Yang Jun still wore a calm and composed expression.

Yang Jun looked at Yun Fengyun before him, still very calm; everything now seems not a big deal.

As long as you understand, we are one family and will face many things.

But no matter what happens, you only need to remember one thing: the Empress Dowager cares for Xi Yue and can also protect her well—do you understand?

Yun Fengyun smiled slightly and spoke to Yang Jun.

In the current situation, he felt inside an overwhelming, intolerable feeling.

Thank you, Father Emperor; I, your subject, understand.

Yang Jun hastily bowed in response; for him, this matter also still requires his utmost effort to resolve.

Rest assured, my relationship with your father is something you should clearly understand; the connections involved are still quite simple.

Furthermore, in my heart, you have long been regarded as my own son.

By the way, take a look at this memorial.

As Yun Fengyun spoke, he indeed produced a memorial and handed it to Yang Jun.

Yang Jun also understood this matter quite clearly.

He took the memorial, but what he saw were the matters that needed to be dealt with urgently regarding those who have taken to banditry.

At a glance, Yang Jun understood.

These matters, for him, are a kind of difficulty that cannot be easily dealt with.

In this age, the occurrence of taking to banditry is commonplace.

Within the borders of Great Xia, no one knows how many there are.

But nowadays, Yun Fengyun has actually singled out this matter on his own, seemingly with far too many and blatantly obvious targeting, ah.

Precisely so; then, what should be done about this?

Yang Jun is now even clearer about this situation.

Isn't the so-called taking to banditry always accompanied by even more unforeseeable problems?

Everyone understands that what these people encounter are things that make survival impossible, hence their actions.

Jun'er, take a look—why rebel?

Yun Fengyun looked coldly at Yang Jun before him, a flash of chill passing through his eyes.

Do you know that since I ascended the throne, I have always considered the people?

I have exhausted every effort in all matters, doing far too many things.

Reducing various taxes, performing various good deeds—tell me, why would they rebel?

Yun Fengyun spoke again, and while speaking, he unconsciously nodded.

Everything the Father Emperor does is for the people, but nowadays, these matters seem to have many unexpected aspects.

If that is the case, then those who rebel should be killed.

Yang Jun spoke in a low voice, with a resolute expression.

At this moment, Yun Fengyun sat in place, his eyes fixed firmly on Yang Jun.

He had been observing Yang Jun, and his demeanor still carried a hint of gravity.

But Yang Jun's current display is still even more calm and composed, along with some persistence.

Yun Fengyun looked at Yang Jun before him, and for a moment he tightly closed his eyes.

As he opened his eyes again, he let out a long sigh.

Xi Yue's husband, the Prince Consort of Great Xia.

In such a situation, should I not be at ease?

Perhaps one could say that I can make use of this situation.

Jun'er, your martial cultivation now seems to be rising extremely quickly.

Compared to the time of your wedding, your progress has been too great, ah.

How have you cultivated your current martial prowess?

Yun Fengyun looked at Yang Jun before him and again spoke repeatedly.

In the current situation, one must often achieve various ends here; Yun Fengyun is still here, observing intently.

Well, I, your subject, have merely been focusing on painstaking cultivation, paying no heed to anything else.

Yang Jun replied with a smile; there's no need to say more about these matters.

But Yang Jun also understands that what emanates from Yun Fengyun is an unmatched, overwhelming force that seeks to devour everything—a crisis.

Yun Fengyun's suspicion does not have to wait until the sixth day of the twelfth month to reach its peak.

But as things stand now, everything Yun Fengyun has done is still probing; in other words, that suspicion has actually become even stronger.

Father Emperor, rest assured; to protect Xi Yue, I, your subject, will certainly exhaust all my abilities, deploying everything to safeguard her.

Of course, I will also strive to serve the Father Emperor, protect Xi Yue, and serve Great Xia.

Yang Jun again took a deep breath and spoke continuously.

At present, such a situation, in these circumstances, he repeatedly spoke.

You child, will I still not trust you? You, like your father, are all loyal and devoted subjects to my Great Xia.

But ah, what do you mean by saying this now? Could it be that you want to, like your father, truly go guard the borders? Defend the home and country?

Yun Fengyun opened his mouth again, speaking loudly.

However, while speaking, Yun Fengyun's voice clearly revealed a hint of hoarseness.

At present, such a situation, all places that ought to act accordingly and respond have already achieved such a response.

If Father Emperor needs it, I, your subject, am willing to appear anywhere.

Any position, I, your subject, am willing to undertake.

Yang Jun at this moment immediately straightened his body, spoke with unmatched sincerity, and repeatedly spoke.

At present, such a situation, amidst these circumstances, this persistence remains.

Yun Fengyun, upon hearing Yang Jun's words, his eyes again turned toward Yang Jun.

His gaze swept over; at this moment, he smiled slightly and lightly shook his head.

You, what I desire is merely that you can be together with Xi Yue happily; happiness is enough.

Yun Fengyun repeatedly spoke; at this moment, he walked forward, extended his hand, and lightly patted Yang Jun's shoulder.

I, your subject, will surely not fail Father Emperor's heavy trust!

Yang Jun bowed, responding in a deep voice.

Good!

Yun Fengyun smiled slightly, uttered a word, and nodded firmly.
