The boss of a foreign organization called the police, claiming that he was defrauded by me

Doka's confidant said seriously, "Do you think this might be the work of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"

"After all, this alliance of three countries is quite large in scale, and has sent fleets from several countries to try to intercept the Chinese fleet at sea."

"The Great Zhou Dynasty must know about this. If they want to cause trouble, they will definitely try to undermine the alliance between our three countries from within."

"I think the most likely candidate for this is the Great Zhou Dynasty; no one else would do it."

Everyone listened carefully to the analysis of Doka's confidant and felt that what he said made some sense.

Doka's confidant's words calmed everyone down.

They began to think about the matter carefully and analyze the pros and cons.

After careful consideration, they finally understood.

It was truly a case of "a word to the wise," and the three men standing next to Doka's confidants suddenly realized the truth.

"Oh my god... how come we didn't think of that? So that's how it is."

"It almost caused a big misunderstanding. It seems we were too careless."

"The collapse of our three-nation alliance is most beneficial to the Great Zhou Dynasty. How could we forget this powerful enemy?"

"Yes...it seems this matter is most likely related to Yang Xia of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Now that everyone has spoken out about this, they actually think it makes sense, but we are still suspicious of each other."

"It seems that Yang Xia of the Great Zhou Dynasty is no ordinary man; he actually orchestrated all of this without anyone noticing."

Although they said that, they still didn't quite trust the other two.

At this critical moment, no one dares to be careless, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Not only will their own lives be in danger, but they will also endanger the country behind them.

This time they were all smarter, holding back when facing each other and constantly on guard.

They fear that the other party might suddenly bring them harm or damage, catching them off guard.

While these people were arguing and distrusting each other, Yang Xia received news that the Chinese envoy Sun Zhengming had returned to China.

This made Yang Xia very happy. Now that Sun Zhengming had returned to China, he believed that good news would come soon.

Yang Xia sat in the main hall and spoke with Sun Zhengming using a communicator.

Yang Xia asked expectantly, "How's the situation on your end? Have you managed to convey my message?"

Sun Zhengming looked at Yang Xia with a wry smile and said, "Your Majesty... I assure you, I have conveyed your meaning and request."

"But the result was not satisfactory. Your request was rejected. I have no way to make the decision. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Yang Xia was somewhat disappointed when he heard the news brought by Sun Zhengming.

He had been hoping for good news, but now it seemed he could only rely on himself.

Yang Xia was stunned that the Great Zhou Dynasty could not ally with the Huaxia Kingdom to fight against the Xingyun Kingdom.

He considered the matter carefully, feeling that there must be a reason why the request was rejected.

This left Yang Xia somewhat unwilling. He took a deep breath and asked, "Then can you tell me why my request was rejected?"

"There must be a reason. I'd like to hear their thoughts."

Sun Zhengming sighed and said, "The reason is that the Xingyun Kingdom is too powerful."

"Our Huaxia Kingdom does not want to implicate the Great Zhou Dynasty and cause you to suffer and be harmed."

"This is the reason given by the high-ranking officials of China. I have no way to refute it. I can only convey their meaning so that you can understand each other's intentions and thoughts."

"The Nebula Kingdom has been putting pressure on the Huaxia Kingdom, and relations are currently very tense. It would be inappropriate to involve the Great Zhou Dynasty at this time."

Yang Xia listened carefully to Sun Zhengming's story, feeling both disappointed and touched.

However, he genuinely wanted to help China and didn't want to see the Nebula Kingdom constantly eyeing China covetously, putting immense pressure on China.

The Great Zhou Dynasty and the Huaxia Kingdom have always had a good relationship. At this critical moment, the Great Zhou Dynasty should extend a helping hand to help the Huaxia Kingdom overcome its difficulties.

This will make the Nebula Kingdom aware of the power and influence of the Chinese Kingdom, so that they will not dare to offend it easily.

In fact, Yang Xia could understand Sun Zhengming's meaning, after all, the Great Zhou Dynasty was located in a relatively remote area.

Yang Xia was somewhat unwilling. He looked at Sun Zhengming expectantly and asked, "Is there really no room for maneuver? My Great Zhou Dynasty is sincere. I want to try again."

Seeing Yang Xia's persistence, Sun Zhengming said with emotion, "I know the intentions of your Great Zhou Dynasty, but your location is currently remote."

"Under normal circumstances, the flames of war will not spread to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even if the Nebula Kingdom wanted to attack the Great Zhou Dynasty, it would take a very long time to sail there."

"That is indeed somewhat unrealistic. You are currently in a relatively stable environment, and you should maintain this advantage and develop steadily."

Sun Zhengming spoke these words sincerely to Yang Xia, and Yang Xia understood.

He had already considered these conditions, but he just didn't want to sit idly by.

Yang Xia said without hesitation, "I understand all the reasons you're giving, and I've already considered them."

“This time, the Great Zhou Dynasty is resolute in its stance, and as you know, I, Yang Xia, was originally a citizen of the Huaxia Kingdom.”

"Although the Great Zhou Dynasty appears to be an independent country on the surface, it has never left China."

“I am very clear about this, and I know what I am doing. Anyway, my mind is made up, so please don’t try to persuade me anymore.”

"We can't just stand by and watch the Nebula Nation act so arrogantly and threaten China. We must find a way to teach them a lesson."

Seeing Yang Xia's resolute attitude, Sun Zhengming was unable to change his mind in a short time.

After spending time together, he knew that once Yang Xia made up his mind, it was very difficult to change it.

Moreover, Yang Xia already had plans and intentions regarding this matter, so he was even less likely to give up easily.

For a moment, Sun Zhengming didn't know how to persuade Yang Xia or how to express his gratitude.

He was deeply moved by Yang Xia's actions and felt that Yang Xia was a grateful and sentimental person, as well as someone worthy of deep friendship and trust.

Yang Xia's current actions have truly moved Sun Zhengming, the envoy from China.

He was also somewhat emotional, feeling that if China lost a friend like Yang Xia, it would be their greatest loss.

Sun Zhengming was very satisfied with Yang Xia's behavior, and he also wanted to spend his time with Yang Xia wholeheartedly.

It is hoped that the friendly relations between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Huaxia Kingdom can be further strengthened, which would be of great benefit to both sides. Seeing Yang Xia's resolute attitude, Sun Zhengming considered it carefully and then looked at Yang Xia with delight, saying, "Your Majesty... don't be anxious. If you really insist, I will apply for call access again."

"At that time, you can talk directly with the top leaders of China and express your thoughts and suggestions."

"You can communicate directly. No matter the outcome, I will do my best."

Yang Xia breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Sun Zhengming's words.

He nodded slowly and said, "Alright... then I'll have to trouble you, Lord Sun. You must do this well."

"I look forward to your good news and hope that we can form an alliance again."

With that, Yang Xia happily hung up the phone. After hanging up, Yang Xia got busy.

He frantically collected and researched information about Nebula Kingdom, leaving no stone unturned.

Among the information he gathered, Yang Xia discovered that the Nebula Kingdom had recently been gaining momentum.

He frowned and said seriously, "So that's why the Nebula Kingdom has developed so rapidly recently and has set its sights on China."

"After all, China is very important to Nebula, with abundant resources and substantial reserves of various energy sources. That's why Nebula sees China as a piece of fat meat that is about to be devoured."

"So they've been eyeing it covetously all along; that's their goal. It's really quite despicable."

Yang Xia carefully examined the information, wanting to understand everything clearly.

He consulted the documents while waiting for news from Sun Zhengming.

Yang Xia wanted to have a detailed talk with the top leaders of China and get them to agree to his request to help China overcome its difficulties.

Otherwise, Yang Xia would still be uneasy. He couldn't just stand by and watch all this happen while the Great Zhou Dynasty was powerless to do anything about it.

With the Nebula Nation developing so rapidly, if it were to actually go to war with the China Nation, the China Nation wouldn't gain any advantage.

It might even allow the Nebula Kingdom to succeed and divide up China's abundant resources.

Yang Xia carefully considered these matters, and then slowly planned in his mind how the Great Zhou Dynasty should help the Huaxia Kingdom.

After Yang Xia figured all this out, he realized that the Nebula Kingdom had been trying to suppress the Chinese Empire at all levels.

Their purpose is very clear: to gradually weaken the power of the Chinese Empire in preparation for their next plan. It seems that the Nebula Kingdom already has its own plan and objectives in this matter.

Yang Xia analyzed the matter with a serious expression, while Meng Yu, who was standing next to Yang Xia, looked at him with doubt and asked, "Your Majesty... given the current situation, what do you plan to do next?"

"Are there any specific goals or detailed plans? Should we prepare in advance?"

"Because our Great Zhou Dynasty is too far away from the Nebula Kingdom, we must take this into careful consideration."

"If we really want to help China deal with Nebula, we must consider and plan for all the factors involved."

"If we launch an attack without careful consideration, we may run out of ammunition and supplies before we even reach our destination."

"In this way, we will not only fail to help China, but we will also cause trouble for China, preventing them from focusing on dealing with Nebula."

Meng Yu carefully analyzed the matter, wanting to remind Yang Xia that the problem he was facing was not simple.

Yang Xia felt somewhat helpless after hearing Meng Yu's words.

He had already considered these factors, but there was no better solution yet.

Yang Xia looked at Meng Yu and sighed, saying, "Of course I understand what you're worried about. We'll just have to wait and see."

"Let's see what news comes from China, and see what their decision is. I'll have my own way of dealing with it then."

"It's too early to talk about these things now. Even if we prepare everything, if China still doesn't agree to form an alliance with us, then it will all be in vain."

After the call with Sun Zhengming ended, Yang Xia felt a lingering sense of anticipation.

He couldn't wait any longer. Regardless of whether Sun Zhengming could send good news, he had already begun preparations to leave the Great Zhou Dynasty and head to the Huaxia Empire.

During this period, Yang Xia was extremely busy and didn't have a moment to spare.

Then it suddenly occurred to him that he should start a live stream and chat with his loyal fans. After all, he hadn't seen them for a while and he really missed them.

Thinking of this, Yang Xia quickly started a live stream. The fans in the live stream room instantly became active, each one extremely excited.

[Family...it's been so long! Did you miss me? I've been so busy lately that I haven't had a chance to see you all. I finally managed to squeeze in some time today and wanted to have a good chat with you all.]

How has everyone been lately? What have you been up to each day?

[Isn't this the streamer who sells virtual titles on live stream? Long time no see, you've finally shown up! We've missed you so much these past few days.]

You look radiant; you must be having a good time lately.

[Yes... the streamer seems to have gained quite a bit of weight, she looks radiant and full of energy.]

Yang Xia pretended to be angry and glared at him.

"Please show me some respect, okay? After all, I am the absolute ruler of the Great Zhou Dynasty. You keep calling me 'anchor' and calling me by my name, which makes me feel awkward. Could you please call me 'Your Majesty' and show me some respect?"

The fans in the live stream burst into laughter upon hearing Yang Xia's words, but they all obediently changed their tune.

[We haven't seen the King for a while, and he's changed so much; it's something none of us expected.]

[If no one had taken good care of me, I probably wouldn't look so radiant.]

The fans started discussing it enthusiastically, showing great interest in the topic and sharing their opinions with great excitement. Yang Xia felt a little embarrassed and awkward seeing the discussion among the fans in the live stream.

He didn't know what to say or how to explain it to everyone. But the fans seemed very curious, and he was too embarrassed not to answer, so he looked at them awkwardly and said, "You guessed right, it's all thanks to Peony. She takes good care of me every day, how could I not gain weight?"

"She keeps an eye on me all the time and cooks me all sorts of delicious food. I can't let her down. So I almost always finish my food, which is why you see me like this now. It's all thanks to her good care and Peony."

Yang Xia said apologetically, glancing up at the peony beside him.

When Peony heard Yang Xia say these words, especially the praise he gave her, her cheeks turned bright red. She glared at Yang Xia and hurriedly left.

The fans in the live stream perked up immediately when they saw Peony's blushing face.

[Hahaha... Your Majesty, you're so naughty! You've made that girl embarrassed.]

Can you be a little more subtle with your words? Don't be so direct.

Women need to be coaxed. The better you are at talking to them, the more they will like you and the better they will treat you.

[You'll need to consult your fans about this; with Your Majesty's intelligence, you'll master these skills quickly.] (End of Chapter)
