"Are you sure?" Ye Zixuan looked at him with doubt on her face. She really couldn't believe that Zhao Weichen would give up power so easily. After all, in her opinion, most men have a strong desire for power. It can be said that Di Si was unwilling to become the king of the stars because he had rich experience and had seen different worlds. His inner thoughts and values had changed greatly. But Zhao Weichen was different. He had always been in the vortex of power struggle, but now he suddenly said he wanted to give up, which made her doubt his true intentions.
"I'm sure that managing a country is not that easy. I'm old and don't have the drive anymore." Zhao Weichen said slowly, with a look of vicissitudes and lack of interest on his face. There was a trace of fatigue and relief in his eyes, as if he had grown tired of the pursuit of power over the long years and now just wanted to live a peaceful life.
"Are you sure you don't want to? Will your subordinates who have not given up on you for so many years be willing?" Ye Zixuan frowned slightly and asked with a little doubt in her eyes. She knew very well that behind the stage of power, there is often a group of followers who have fought for the same goal for many years and paid countless efforts and sweat. These subordinates of Zhao Weichen have been following him loyally for so long, isn't it just to help him ascend the throne one day and share the glory and wealth? If he gave up so easily now, would they be willing to accept that all these years of hard work would go to waste? This made her doubt Zhao Weichen's decision.
"They will all listen to me." Zhao Weichen raised his head slightly, his eyes full of confidence. He had full confidence in his prestige and leadership, and believed that the image and authority he had established in the hearts of his subordinates over the years were enough to make them obey his decision, even if that decision was to give up the fight for the throne.
"I can ignore these, but I have to say this: Hongguo, our empire must definitely take it down." Ye Zixuan said with a firm gaze. There was no room for negotiation in her tone. The empire had already won half of the victory in this war, and now had enough strength to unify Hongguo. Under such circumstances, she would naturally not give up this great opportunity easily. This was not only about the glory and expansion of the empire, but also for the peace and stability of the interstellar space, and to end the current chaotic rule of Hongguo.
"Okay, I have no objection, I will help." Zhao Weichen said with a serious expression. He understood the general trend, recognized the ruling philosophy and strength of the empire, and was willing to contribute to the future of Hongguo and help the empire successfully complete the great cause of unification.
"You guys can talk about this yourself. If I know that you have hurt Tis, I will definitely not let you go, because he and I share life. If you hurt him even a little, I will know it." Ye Zixuan stared at Zhao Weichen closely, and said with a warning in her eyes. The special life-sharing contract between her and Tis made her pay special attention to Tis's safety, and she would never allow anyone to hurt him in the slightest.
"Why do you share your life? If he gets hurt, you'll be in danger too." Zhao Weichen said with a worried look on his face. He didn't mean to hurt Tis, but as an imperial marshal, Tis would often be involved in battles. On a battlefield full of dangers and uncertainties, the risk of injury is extremely high. He was worried that this life-sharing contract would bring potential threats to Ye Zixuan.
"Because of an accident, he saved me, and this is what happened." Ye Zixuan's eyes softened, and she fell into memories and spoke slowly. That thrilling experience made her and Tis's fate closely linked, and they have been dependent on each other since then, and never left each other. So Tis is hers, and she is also Tis's, their lives have merged into one, and cannot be separated.
"Okay, I get it!" Zhao Weichen felt relieved after hearing this. Since he was trying to save his granddaughter, he would naturally not cause trouble for Tis. What he didn't know was that even if he had such an idea, it would be difficult to realize. Tis's current combat power is invincible in the entire galaxy. The skills he has practiced and the strength he possesses have formed an insurmountable gap between him and other strong men, and no one can easily compete with him.
"That's fine, I'll leave first. I don't care about your fight." Ye Zixuan waved her hand, showing an expression that she didn't want to meddle in other people's business. Although she cared about the outcome of this war, she didn't want to get too involved in the disputes and fights. She just hoped that everything could be resolved smoothly and peace could be restored as soon as possible.
"Okay, I'll talk to Des." Zhao Weichen smiled and nodded. He understood Ye Zixuan's position, and knew that the next communication with Des was crucial, and he needed to discuss how to properly handle Hongguo's affairs.
Ye Zixuan stopped looking at him and turned around and walked out. She thought to herself, if Zhao Weichen really loved his grandmother and was willing to give up power for the sake of his family, that would be great. In this way, his grandmother's life might come to a perfect end, and their family would finally have a chance to truly reunite. Years of separation and suffering would become a thing of the past, and they would be greeted by a happy and peaceful future.
"Ah Xuan, you're back!" When Tis saw Ye Zixuan coming back, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He quickly stepped forward, gently took her hand, and led her to sit down at the seat. His movements were gentle and caring, as if he was afraid of disturbing her.
"Well, Tis, when can you take down Hongguo?" Ye Zixuan looked at Tis and asked directly. Her eyes revealed a hint of eagerness and expectation. This war has lasted for too long. She longed to end it all as soon as possible and return to a peaceful life.
"It will be solved soon." Tis raised his chin slightly, speaking in a firm and confident tone. He had a clear judgment and grasp of the current situation. Under the rule of Zhao Weihong, Hongguo's strength has long been greatly reduced. The reason why the empire did not take the initiative to attack before was only because it adhered to the principle of not easily provoking trouble. Now, since Zhao Weihong attempted to murder him, it became inevitable for the empire to send troops to attack Hongguo. With the strength of the empire, as long as Zhao Weihong, the core figure, was solved, Hongguo would lose the main force of resistance, and the great cause of unification was just around the corner.
"Okay, I want to end it soon so that we can live a good life." Ye Zixuan sighed slightly, her eyes full of longing. She only hoped to be with Tis, live a stable and happy life, away from the disputes and killings in the interstellar space.
