Hearing their words, the Emperor's expression softened.
A smile graced his face as he gave an appreciative glance to Wang Ye, saying, "It seems that you are quite patriotic, which is rare among young people these days."
Influenced by the collapse of the Former Soviet Union and the impact of Western culture, young people in Russia were significantly inclined towards the West during this period.
The group entranced by all things foreign, compared to China's young people, was definitely an excess and an extreme!
Wang Ye chuckled, "As it should be. Without the strength of the nation, where would our personal advancement come from? They complement each other. So, even for personal reasons, I hope Russia can become stronger."
One must admit, this kind of "flattery" was most welcome to the Emperor...
For a while, the Emperor felt quite compatible with Wang Ye's temperament. He understood him!
