Mother, I have returned to the throne.

Chapter 383 What’s so good about the emperor?

Seeing Wei Da's serious expression, Song Yuan couldn't help but look at Jin Lian beside him.

Is the thing that I least want to happen happening so soon?

"I understand your thoughts. Are you asking me if I would rebel if I made it all the way to the end?"

After a moment's silence, Song Yuan went straight to the point and asked with a calm expression.

"That's right!" Wei Da faced such a sharp question without any hesitation and nodded vigorously.

"If it were in the past, I wouldn't have thought so, but this time in Border Town, I suddenly realized that your ability is far stronger than others!"

"In terms of strategy, even General Murong can't match you, but you chose to pretend to be a loser in the Imperial City. As the saying goes, when things are out of the ordinary, there must be something wrong. You must have your own purpose for doing this!"

"Even a fool can see that all this is probably for your own ambition, right?"

As Wei Da spoke, he recalled the past, and things became different one by one.

Martial arts competition in the hunting ground to eliminate bandits.

There is now a high probability that each of these things may have been done by Song Yuan!

He is sometimes straightforward, but he is not stupid, so he can naturally see such an obvious problem.

Now I raise it directly, just to get an answer from Song Yuan.

"No matter how I respond, will you believe it?" Song Yuan smiled but did not say it clearly.

Wei Da nodded fiercely: "I believe you, I believe everything you say. Even if you swear to the sky in front of me that you have no intention of rebelling, I will still believe you!"

For a moment, Song Yuan's eyes couldn't help but reveal some emotion. Looking at the brother in front of him, he instantly felt the other party's sincerity.

"Brother Wei, thank you for your trust. I can clearly tell you that my only goal now is to protect myself!"

"As for whether to rebel or not, I've never thought about it!"

"You should have seen by now that General Wei has evil intentions towards me and is determined to kill me. If I don't take command, how can I survive in his hands?"

"I didn't mean to do anything wrong. I was forced to do this!"

Song Yuan did not hide anything at this moment and directly spoke out his difficulties.

When Wei Da heard this instruction, his eyes suddenly brightened: "Brother, I understand. This old villain Wei Wenzhong has no grudge against you in the past or in the present."

"Are you suspecting that he's targeting you like this because of the idiot behind him?"

The idiot that Wei Da was referring to was the Third Prince.

This person and Song Yuan have the same father and mother, and can be said to be brothers born from the same womb.

But now, they are killing each other and cannot tolerate each other no matter what!

Facing Wei Da's words, Song Yuan nodded and said, "You can see that Song Qi is still determined to harm me. When I was a hostage in the barbarians, he retaliated repeatedly. I was powerless at that time!"

"Now I finally have the ability to protect myself. I just want to live. What's wrong with me?"

"General Wei and I have no past or present grudges, so why would he target me? If he wasn't under the orders of that prince, I wouldn't believe it!"

The frontier minister is in cahoots with the prince!

Faced with such a sudden change, Wei Da's eyes were deep and his pupils were full of surprise.

He wanted to explain and make Song Yuan feel at ease, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them!

Everyone knows what General Wei is thinking. If he were to persuade Song Yuan now, would he let this brother wait for death?

For a moment, Wei Da could only lower his head and fall into silence. After a long time, he raised his head and asked.

"What you call self-protection should be the self-respect of the mercenary you are practicing now, right?"

"That's right!" Song Yuan nodded without hiding anything. "But compared to what you said, I would rather change the name. You can call me the Great Qin Border Guard!"

"Brother Wei, I can at least guarantee one thing. As long as Your Majesty doesn't act recklessly, I will never cross the line. The border is the only place I can set foot in. Once you pass Zhenbei Pass, you will be under house arrest!"

"Furthermore, from now on, no barbarian will cross this path and bring harm to the Great Qin!"

"I am a city wall, blocking everything for the Qin Dynasty. If you want to enter the heart of the Qin Dynasty, you must step over my corpse first!"

Sensing Song Yuan's determination, Wei Da's face couldn't help but show some emotion.

At this moment, Wei Da had already believed in Song Yuan's strength and was able to break out of the predicament in the border town and make the barbarian princess run around in circles.

Apart from Song Yuan, who else has this ability?

Song Yuan is guarding the border and can definitely build an iron wall here. No matter how brave the barbarians are, they will not be able to cross such a natural barrier!

But as Song Yuan said, how would His Majesty feel?

"Brother, have you ever considered whether His Majesty would take action against you if you rise up in rebellion?"

"It's not me who needs to consider this problem, but him!" Faced with such trouble, Song Yuan was extremely sober.

"As long as my father reigns, I am willing to defend the borders for him. I think there's nothing wrong with that. With me helping him, he can rest easy. At least he won't have to worry about foreign invasions!"

"Then let me ask you, if one day His Majesty really sends troops to attack you, how will you deal with it?"

"Isn't this easy? I just need to send people to guard Zhenbei Pass. Even if you have millions of soldiers, they won't be able to get out of line!" Song Yuan had already made plans in all aspects regarding the self-respect of his mercenaries.

At this moment, he did not hide anything and spoke directly about his thoughts.

"If you want to enter the heart of the frontier, Zhenbei Pass is the only way. With my ability, if you give me 50,000 troops, it will be enough to turn that place into an iron wall!"

No matter how brave your men are, when the time comes, as long as I can control such a vital throat, who can offend me?

As soon as these words were spoken, Wei Da's expression became gloomy. He lowered his head and thought for a moment. After a long time, he finally raised his head.

"Brother, I can guarantee that as long as you are just a mercenary and do not rebel, I, Wei Da, will always be your brother!"

"Our relationship remains unchanged, just like before. As for what others think of me, I don't care!"

"Actually, in my opinion, what's the point of creating a reaction? If I really had to choose, I'd rather be a free and easy prince. As for the so-called emperor, whoever wants to be one can be one!"

Hearing Wei Da's promise, Song Yuan smiled, and then expressed his true thoughts.

"Honestly speaking, I'm not cut out to be an emperor. After all, that position requires decisiveness, suspicion, and cold-bloodedness. I have to be on guard against everything every day!"

"If you have that in mind, wouldn't it be more fun for me to travel around with the women around me?"
