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

Ram was unaware that these advanced weapons had been tampered with, reducing their power by half.

He smugly believed that the Nebula Kingdom had gained a great advantage and successfully brought the Great Zhou Dynasty under its control.

At this rate of development, it could very well become a world power in a short period of time.

The surrounding countries are not a threat. Once they are surrounded, they will seize the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Yang Xia was well aware that Xingyun Kingdom was dreaming, and he never let his guard down for a moment; all of this was under his control.

Just as General Meng Yu was transporting a large number of weapons away from the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yang Xia specially started a live broadcast.

He wanted people from all countries to see the gifts the Great Zhou Dynasty bestowed upon the Xingyun Kingdom, which would also put pressure on the Xingyun Kingdom, preventing them from openly attacking the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"This Yang Xia is too cunning. He actually pulled this trick on us. We can no longer openly attack the Great Zhou Dynasty."

Ram was extremely displeased with Yang Xia's actions, but was unable to voice her objections.

Yang Xia's move, under the guise of friendly relations between the two countries, was not unreasonable; it was a declaration of the good cooperative relationship between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Xingyun Kingdom.

It must be admitted that Yang Xia was brilliant and wise. His approach was truly ingenious, leaving the Xingyun Kingdom speechless and putting them under immense pressure.

"Your Majesty, your approach is brilliant. Now the Nebula Kingdom will not dare to launch an attack on our Great Zhou Dynasty so easily."

Yu Meiren brought a bowl of lotus seed soup to Yang Xia and expressed her approval of his actions.

Yang Xia's plan was very thorough, and he considered all aspects very carefully, which naturally earned their utmost admiration.

"Yes, but this can only suppress the Nebula Kingdom's actions on the surface. We still need to be wary of what they might do behind the scenes."

Yang Xia could never have any trust in the Xingyun Kingdom, and his current actions are merely expedient measures.

Ram was driving back home in high spirits, and the addition of Liu Zhixiu, a talented person, made him feel that he had gained a lot.

Liu Zhixiu stared silently at the sea, lost in thought, wondering what she would do next.

Ramu was obviously trying to use him, but if he could bring down Yang Xia, then all his efforts would not have been in vain.

However, Liu Zhixiu couldn't quite understand Yang Xia and Xingyun Kingdom's actions. She wondered why Yang Xia was so generous, giving Xingyun Kingdom so many advanced weapons for free.

It was even less likely that Liu Zhixiu would take the initiative to talk to Lamu, and he couldn't figure out what she was thinking either, so he could only wait and see.

"Liu Zhixiu, you will soon be able to return to Xingyun Kingdom with me. You will soon have a chance to use your skills. Don't worry, our goal is just around the corner."

"The Great Zhou Dynasty will be ours sooner or later, without a doubt."

Ram kept telling Yoo Ji-soo these things in order to boost her confidence.

Liu Zhixiu does have certain advantages, and if they can be successfully utilized, they can help them overthrow the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"I hope so."

Hearing Ram say these things to her, Yoo Ji-soo nodded slightly.

Liu Zhixiu had his own ideas about these things. Ram wanted to use her, and he also wanted to use the Nebula Kingdom.

If the two parties reach a cooperation agreement, it will also be beneficial to Yoo Ji-soo.

However, both sides had their own thoughts and were wary of each other's actions. They sailed on the sea in tacit understanding, each planning their own future.

Many people from the Nebula Kingdom were also watching Yang Xia's live stream, and they expressed great dissatisfaction with it.

What is Yang Xia up to? Why is he gifting so many advanced weapons to the Nebula Kingdom?

Yes, Yang Xia's intentions are quite clear. Does it mean he intends to cooperate closely with the Nebula Kingdom?

[The Great Zhou Dynasty had previously only gifted weapons to the Yan Kingdom; the fact that they were now gifting weapons to the Xingyun Kingdom inevitably raises questions.]

The live stream chat immediately erupted in chaos, with the people of Yan Kingdom expressing their dissatisfaction with Yang Xia.

Yang Xia was busy with his own affairs and did not pay attention to these matters, nor did he speculate too much about the thoughts of the Yan people.

I have always acted with integrity and have no need to explain anything to anyone. Moreover, I can control the current situation myself.

He secretly tampered with those weapons, maintaining only a facade of cooperation while actually being wary of the Nebula Kingdom.

All subsequent matters are in Yang Xia's hands. He will not allow the Xingyun Kingdom to cause trouble easily, nor will he allow the Great Zhou Dynasty to be threatened in any way.

As the ruler of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yang Xia must have complete control over these aspects.

General Meng Yu was fully aware of the ins and outs of the matter and naturally held Yang Xia's actions in the highest esteem.

But apart from that, Yang Xia could not tell anyone, and could only keep this matter to himself, as long as he had a clear conscience.

The farewell ceremony was very lively. Yang Xia wanted people from all countries to see this scene, which was also a very meaningful event for the entire Great Zhou Dynasty.

Yang Xia noticed that Su Qi was not present at the farewell ceremony, which clearly indicated that Su Qi did not understand the action.

Perhaps I need to have a good talk with Su Qi and make him fully understand my good intentions.

After experiencing so many things, Yang Xia felt that everything he had done was for the sake of Yan Kingdom and the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he hoped that Su Qi could understand.

Of course, everyone is in a different position, so their opinions will certainly differ.

Su Qi was acting in the best interests of the Yan Kingdom, fearing that the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Xingyun Kingdom would truly cooperate, which would pose a great threat to the Yan Kingdom. Yang Xia could understand this.

However, some things, once they cause a deep misunderstanding, will not benefit either of them.

Yang Xia then decided to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Su Qi, to frankly discuss these issues with him, so that they would have no barriers between them and would be able to act more smoothly.

Having made up his mind, Yang Xia planned to talk to Su Qi after the farewell ceremony and share his thoughts.

The farewell ceremony lasted for a long time, and fans from all over the world gathered in the live broadcast room, naturally discussing the matter and having different opinions.

Is the Great Zhou Dynasty truly going to cooperate with the Nebula Kingdom? Their actions are tantamount to announcing it to the entire world.

If these two countries were to truly cooperate, what kind of impact would it have on each other? Nebula Kingdom has always been ambitious; would they truly coexist peacefully with other nations?

Fans in neighboring countries also have their own opinions on this incident.

Most countries do not have a good impression of the Nebula Kingdom. They know that the Nebula Kingdom is extremely ambitious, and their opinions are mixed after seeing the actions of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Some praised Yang Xia for taking the overall situation into consideration and expressed their hope that all countries could live in peace.

However, some people think that Yang Xia is out of his mind for cooperating with such an ambitious country, and that he might suffer losses at any time.

The live stream was very lively, with everyone saying all sorts of things and expressing their own opinions.

Yang Xia was too busy to pay much attention to what was happening in the live stream. However, he had already anticipated that it would cause a huge uproar, since his actions had been quite significant and would attract the attention of various countries.

Yang Xia doesn't care too much about what others think, as long as he can keep these things firmly in his own hands.

He is always very opinionated and never changes his mind once he has made a decision, so he is not easily led by others.

Yang Xia was focused on today's affairs, and regardless of what others said, he wanted to maintain the facade of cooperation with the Nebula Kingdom.

When the time is right, many things will naturally fall into place, and there will be no need to explain to anyone.

So far, the person he cares about most is Su Qi. He hopes that Su Qi can stay calm and not overthink things so that they can work together to move forward.

After finishing his work, Yang Xia prepared to discuss some matters with Su Qi, but was ruthlessly rejected.

"Your Majesty, General Su says he has something to attend to and will not be coming."

His men immediately brought this news to Yang Xia, but they did not invite Su Qi.

"That's strange. Su Qi must have other ideas. Maybe he really misunderstands us."

Yang Xia muttered to himself, "This is exactly what I feared."

He had been worried about this issue for a while, but unfortunately, he got this result just as he had freed up his time.

It seems that Su Qi has truly misunderstood his relationship with the Nebula Kingdom.

"Why does Su Qi distrust me so much? He could just come and talk to me directly. What's going on here? He's even avoiding me."

Yang Xia was feeling a bit depressed and couldn't help but complain to Yu Meiren, feeling that Su Qi didn't trust him at all.

If there were any trust between them, these things could have been discussed openly and honestly, and misunderstandings would not have occurred.

Seeing Yang Xia's depressed look, Yu Meiren also felt bad.

She hadn't mentioned Su Qi's visit to Yang Xia beforehand, and they had unintentionally had a quarrel.

Unexpectedly, the situation escalated further, and if things continued this way, the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Yan Kingdom might break apart again.

Yu Meiren never expected the situation to be so serious. If she had known, she would never have said those words so inexplicably, which only deepened the misunderstanding.

After careful consideration, Yu Meiren decided to tell Yang Xia what had happened earlier.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, perhaps I made a mistake in this matter." Yu Meiren suddenly spoke up to apologize to Yang Xia, which confused Yang Xia.

"Yu Meiren, what are you talking about? What does this have to do with you?"

Yang Xia knew that Yu Meiren was always very sensible and would often take on the burden of things for him.

To be fair, Yu Meiren has done a very good job, taking meticulous care of herself and being exceptionally attentive to many affairs of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, to tell you the truth, Su Qi came to see you before."

"But seeing how angry he was, I couldn't help but retort a few words. I didn't expect the situation to get so serious. It seems that the misunderstanding is getting deeper and deeper."

Yu Meiren confessed everything she had done with deep remorse and kept apologizing to Yang Xia.

She didn't mean to do it, but if it caused serious consequences, she wouldn't be able to forgive herself.

"Oh, I see. You don't need to blame yourself too much. It's not a big problem. Leave the rest to me."

After hearing Yu Meiren explain the whole story, Yang Xia did not blame her at all. Instead, he comforted her, which moved Yu Meiren deeply.

"Your Majesty, you are always so tolerant of me. I don't know what to say. I hope I haven't made things worse."

Yu Meiren felt even more embarrassed.

"Silly girl, don't say so much, you've already done very well."

Yang Xia affectionately pinched Yu Meiren's little face, then went to find Su Qi.

He believed that as long as he was honest with Su Qi, these matters should be easily resolved. Based on his understanding of Su Qi, he knew that Su Qi was not a troublemaker.

"What are you here for?"

Su Qi's expression was very unpleasant when he saw Yang Xia.

"Brother Su, of course I have something to discuss with you. There are some things we need to clarify, and some misunderstandings will naturally be resolved." Yang Xia looked at Su Qi with a smile.

"Heh, a misunderstanding? You think you can cover up all the facts with just one misunderstanding? The whole world has seen the donation of weapons to Nebula Kingdom. Are you going to tell me it's all a misunderstanding?"

Su Qi retorted, saying he could not possibly believe Yang Xia's words and only believed what he saw with his own eyes.

"Brother Su, I knew you misunderstood. It's true that I gave weapons to the Nebula Kingdom, but I tampered with them, so their lethality is only half."

"I am utterly loyal to the Yan Kingdom, and I hope Brother Su can understand that."

Yang Xia calmed down and sincerely told Su Qi all about his plans.

"What? All those weapons were tampered with? Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

Upon hearing this, Su Qi realized he had misunderstood Yang Xia and felt extremely embarrassed.

"You didn't ask me, so I didn't have a chance to say it," Yang Xia laughed, without any blame.

"Yang Xia, I'm really sorry. It seems I really judged you by my own petty standards."

"You have done so much for our Yan Kingdom, yet I have such doubts about you. It is truly wrong of me."

Su Qi quickly apologized to Yang Xia, and the misunderstanding between the two was completely cleared up.

"Yang Xia, I often act without thinking and misunderstand you. I hope you won't take it to heart." After this incident, Sun Zhengming felt very apologetic, realizing that some of his actions seemed to have gone too far.

Although Yang Xia did not blame him too much, Sun Zhengming still felt bad and kept apologizing.

"Forget it, this matter is in the past. As long as our two countries can live in harmony, other problems are not problems at all." Seeing Sun Zhengming so remorseful, Yang Xia was very magnanimous and did not blame him too much.

The more Yang Xia acted this way, the more embarrassed Sun Zhengming became. He expressed that he would fully trust Yang Xia in the future and get along well with the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Brother Sun, there is something else I would like to discuss with you. In order to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings, we still need to clarify many aspects." Yang Xia looked at Sun Zhengming with a sincere expression, hoping to take this opportunity to sort out all the issues so that things would go more smoothly in the future.

"Yang Xia, please speak frankly, I will trust you." Sun Zhengming trusted Yang Xia completely and was willing to sincerely tell him all his questions. In this good atmosphere, many things became much simpler.

"Thank you for your understanding, Brother Sun. Going forward, I hope Yan Kingdom will refrain from becoming too close to the Great Zhou Dynasty." "After all, we've only recently reached a superficial cooperation agreement with Xingyun Kingdom, and we still need to be careful to maintain this facade of cooperation." Yang Xia quickly informed Sun Zhengming of this situation, while looking at him somewhat nervously, wondering if he would understand. (End of Chapter)
