A few days later, a carriage left Youzhou in a low-key manner and headed for Chang 'an.
There were only two people in the carriage. They were Yun Buhen and his mother, Zhangsun Yun.
Outside the carriage were Li Yuanba and a dozen other guards.
Chang 'an City was not very far from Youzhou. Otherwise, Jie Li Khan would not have reached Chang' an City so quickly in history.
Moving forward slowly, Yun Buhen and his group arrived at Chang 'an after spending five or six days.
Chang 'an Fortress?"
Zhangsun Yun's eyes were filled with melancholy as she pulled open the curtains and looked at the familiar city ahead. She had lived in Chang 'an City for a few years and left her memories here with some people.
He had thought that he would never return here in this lifetime.
However, he did not expect that he would return one day.
"Mother."
Yun Buhen shouted as if he had noticed his mother's abnormality.
Zhangsun Yun came to her senses and shook her head slightly at Yun Buhen, indicating that she was fine.
However, her mother was silent for a moment before she finally looked at Yun Buhen and asked.
"I don't hate you. Aren't you curious about your background?”
Yun Buhen was stunned. He was indeed very curious. However, his mother seemed to have something difficult to say, so he never took the initiative to ask. Anyway, the Jinyiwei had already gone to investigate. They would probably know the truth sooner or later.
"It's okay, Mother. Our background is not important anymore. Anyway, aren't we living very well now?”
"Your son, I, am the ruler of Youzhou and have an army of 200,000.”
Yun Buhen said with a smile. It could be considered as comforting his mother. As for the matter of his secret investigation, he would hide it for the time being.
The carriage slowly entered Chang 'an Fortress. Yun Buhen took out the customs clearance documents that he had prepared beforehand and entered Chang' an Fortress simply.
They did not reveal their true identities because Li Shiming's imperial edict told them to return to Chang 'an to report their work within three months and then be rewarded.
No one would have thought that Yun Buhen would arrive in Chang 'an so quickly.
After all, there were too many things to consider in Chang 'an. It was as if everyone thought that Li Shiming would set up a trap and attack Yun Buhen.
However, they were thinking too much. Yun Buhen had never put these things in his eyes.
First of all, would Li Shiming do such a thing in disregard of his reputation? Even if he really did it, Yun Buhen would not be afraid.
As long as Li Yuanba was by Yun Buhen's side, who in the world could touch Yun Buhen?
Although Yun Buhen's body was very weak, it could be said that he did not have the strength to even tie a chicken.
However, don't forget that Yun Buhen still had 58 City. When he was truly in despair, Yun Buhen only needed to spend money to recruit powerful generals to instantly appear by his side.
After controlling the Serenity Plains and establishing the Serenity Plains Chamber of Commerce, Yun Buhen would never lack money.
Every month, Shen Wansan would give him at least a few million yuan to recharge 58 City in case of emergency.
The rest were used as the construction funds of Youzhou Province and the development funds of the Chamber of Commerce.
"Oh, Chang 'an City looks quite prosperous!”
Yun Buhen said with a smile.
'However, it's far inferior to my Youzhou Province.' Although this place was bustling, most of the people were still sallow and emaciated.
It was the first year of Zhenguan, not yet the golden age of the Great Tang, so the commoners were still living a hard life.
Fortunately, they were in Chang 'an. The people in the other prefectures they saw along the way were living a life worse than death.
On the way, his mother, Sun Yun, couldn't help but sigh when she saw these scenes and recalled the lives of the people in Youzhou Province.
"Mother, if I become the ruler of the world and the emperor, do you think all the people in the world can live the same life as the people in Youzhou Province?”
Yun Buhen suddenly asked his mother when he was feeling emotional.
Only Yun Buhen would casually spout such disgraceful words.
However, his mother did not lecture him this time. Instead, she looked at Yun Buhen, wanting to see what he had to say.
Yun Buhen said as he looked at the beggars curled up in the dark alley.
"From a young age, my mother taught me benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, faith, and so on. She told me that the greater my ability, the greater my responsibility.”
"Now that I have the ability to let the people of the world live a happy and healthy life and no longer suffer from hunger, why does mother want to stop me?”
After saying this, Yun Buhen suddenly looked at his mother.
That's right. He had mentioned many times that he wanted to become the ruler of the world, the emperor, and change this painful era.
But every time, his mother would stop him because the reason his mother would always give was that if war broke out, the people of the world would suffer.
Zhangsun Yun fell silent. She did not dare to look into Yun Buhen's eyes because she did not know how to answer.
"I don't hate you. Do you really want to be the emperor?”
Yun Buhen nodded and pointed at the starving refugees in the alley.
"They need me."
Although Yun Buhen did not think of himself as a good person, every time he looked at those children dressed in rags begging on the streets, it was as if he was looking at himself in his previous life.
This was especially so after leaving Serenity Plains and seeing a scene that was far different from Serenity Plains. This thought in Yun Buhen's heart grew stronger.
He wanted to change the world.
However, he would not lower himself to others. Therefore, he had only one way, and that was to seize the world and become the ruler of the world, replacing Li Shiming as the emperor!
This way, he could change the world of the Great Tang.
