As soon as he spoke, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn. Even Ryuma Sakamoto and the guards, five meters away, felt the atmosphere strange, as if a cold current suddenly came and was about to snow again in the Far East.

Zai Chun regretted it as soon as he said it. He wanted to slap himself in the face. How could he say such words? He was embarrassed and muttered for a long time while holding the baked rice ball in his hand.

The word "Yuan" revealed Zaichun's true thoughts. In his heart, the land of the Far East is still the territory of the Qing Dynasty, and the people here are still his Zaichun's people.

I support your Volunteer Army and let Hunchun support it is just a temporary solution. In the end, I still have to take back this land. This is what Zaichun really thinks.

In fact, Zai Chun had already exposed his ideas from the beginning. When the Xiao Lotte point of Ryukyu was about to let Xiang Shaolong lead the Volunteer Army to launch an uprising, he had already begun to consider the issue of the Far East after the war.

The land east of the Ussuri River and north of the Heilongjiang River was less than ten years away from the rule of the Qing Dynasty. Since it was too far away from the political center of Tsarist Russia, these Rakshasa ghosts did not establish an effective rule, but just established many stronghold cities.

Zai Chun, who was locked in the Forbidden City before, didn't know anything. The world was hazy in his eyes, and he couldn't even figure out what the large area on the map represented.

But now he walked out, and he personally stepped on the mountains and rivers of this empire, and saw with his own eyes what fertile fields were and what merchants were gathering. This empire was becoming more and more specific in his heart. Only then did he realize that although the empire was large, every inch of land was not redundant, and wealth was accumulated from the little land of standing cone under his feet.

The loss of the Far East was a thorn in Zaichun's heart. He wanted to become a saint emperor like Kangxi and Qianlong. He dared not say that he would expand his territory again. At least the lost land must be taken back. All the land he had to return to the Far East hometown was always a dream.

But he never expected that he thought that he would take back the land of the Far East with millions of soldiers after taking power, but his master Xiao Letian was one step ahead of him and took the lead in continuing the massacre of the Great Qingdao Gold Mine to launch this volunteer uprising.

It’s embarrassing to download Chun. Does he support it? Or does he not support it?

The entangled Zaichun finally helped him relieve the knot in his heart. When the Qing Dynasty did not have the ability to control the land in the Far East, should it be placed in the hands of Tsarist Russia? Or the hands of the imperial teacher Xiao Letian?

A smart person can understand the tricks here with a little effort. The two evils are the least likely to be able to support the master after all. After all, the master and he are of the same language and the relationship between master and apprentice is also very close to the Eastern people's concept. Maybe one day Xiao Letian will return this land to himself.

Don’t forget that Xiao Letian has no heir until now. What if he had never had one? Then the final result must be that Xiao Letian’s apprentice will share his property.

This is not a joke. As long as Xiao Letian has no offspring, the power division of this empire will definitely be evenly divided by Xiao Letian's disciples, and there will definitely be open and secret struggles or even passionate wars.

It is traditionally reasonable for the disciple to inherit the master's land, but also makes sense in terms of culture and legal principles.

It is really a talent to think of a thirteen-year-old child as he can think of this far. Zai Chun, who was brought to Xiao Letian, is actually a good seedling. At least his mind has reached the passing line of the emperor, and he is still as young as a rough jade and still has room for thinking.

It is precisely based on this mentality that Zaichun issued a secret order to Hunchun to let him cooperate with the actions of the Volunteers, which made it possible for Xiang Shaolong to enter Ningguta alone and lead troops to train troops in Jilin.

This is why the mutiny launched by Hunchun later came. It can be said that Zaichun's contribution to the entire Far East War was second only to Xiang Shaolong, and his role was very great and had decisive significance.

Originally, this kind of slight little thought cannot be said to be obvious, but Zaichun is still a child no matter how talented Zaichun is, and his character is not enough. In addition, Xiao Letian just said it a little dizzy, and finally he missed it.

The scene was very awkward, Zai Chun's face turned pale and he didn't know how to accomplish this scene. Xiao Letian didn't expect Emperor Tongzhi to say this. He was stunned for a moment and three minutes passed.

But adults are not children who act voluntarily after all, Xiao Letian smiled faintly, "To be honest? Yes, I thought you would hold it in for the rest of your life? Don't be embarrassed, it's normal to have this kind of thought..."

"The big man is more open-minded. He said that he would not make things happen. People have desires. Everyone wants to pick up gold when they see it, and everyone likes beauty when they see it. As an emperor, it is a common dream. It is nothing wrong to have this idea!"

"I, I..." Zai Chun's face finally calmed down, and the master gave him a step to move him very much.

"But Zaichun, you have to understand! You have not thrown this land into the hands of our Chinese people, but into the hands of Tsarist Russia. In other words, this land now has no legal relationship with you, and at most it is a historical origin!"

"The Volunteers sacrificed their lives and took down this land. Who do you think they would give it to? Who can they give it to..."

"So, the one you just changed the word is wrong... You might as well just say it simply and say that you want to take back this land in the future!"

Zai Chun's eyes lit up, "Take it back?"

"Yes! Take it back openly. Don't think I'll be angry. My apprentice will have a promising future and will even defeat me and take back this land. I should be happy! Because after all, I taught you..."

"But I want to sound the alarm for you in advance! If you want to get this land back, it will definitely not work by relying on military power alone. You also have to compete for the people's hearts! Without the support of the people's hearts, you will also see the consequences of these Rakshasa ghosts!"

"That is to say, from now on, you must work harder. If you want to be a king in the future, you must find ways to make the country stronger and people happier... There will be a gap when there is comparison. Only when you prove to the people that you are much stronger than following me can you get the support of the people. This road is not easy!"

Zaichun's eyes were covered with tears, "Master, are you telling the truth? One day in the future I will take back this land, are you really not angry?"

Xiao Letian nodded, "Of course I won't be angry anymore. Not only will I not be angry, I will also bless you! If my apprentice surpasses my master, what's wrong with me?"

For a moment, Zaichun burst into tears, and Xiao Letian patted his shoulder, "Let's have a meal, time is very tight, we have to hurry up..."

What a picture of deep love between master and apprentice, the soldiers around him were moved, but only Ryuma Sakamoto, who had outstanding ears, could not help but guess what the two were saying.

The monk Long Shi sighed in his heart, "Oh... he cheated! Xiao Letian, just fool the emperor of the Qing Dynasty sooner or later..."
