Heavenly Dao Formula
Chapter 644: Evil Horse Dispute
The Island of Evil Horse, in the House of Evil.
People are gathering together to discuss government affairs and the situation on the island.
Sitting at the top of the lobby is the Queen of the Horse, Chiba Oriko. As the fifteenth generation, she has governed evil horses for more than 20 years. Before Dongsheng publicly conspired to rebellion, the kingdom was considered safe and secure. But after experiencing the competition from many forces, she was obviously a little weak, her body was thinning for a few laps, and the number of openings in meetings became less and less, more often she let trusted people make decisions for herself.
May Haruka is one of them.
Although she had returned to her homeland a month ago, returning to Yixie Mansion was the first time since she went to the mainland.
Compared with a year ago, there were obviously a lot more people attending the meeting, and the voices were also much noisy. This shows that the situation is changing in a good direction-Dongsheng’s momentum is no longer at the beginning, even if it can’t achieve a complete victory in a short period of time, The rebellious princes will be completely wiped out, but at least Yixie and the surrounding areas will no longer be threatened by the enemy.
However, there was no trace of joy in her heart.
The topic soon turned to the issue of population migration.
"Your Majesty, I don't think this can go on anymore." A middle-aged man wearing a gray long coat took the lead and said, "Jinxia requires that 20,000 people be relocated every year, and there are thousands of them in each town. Send them away. Who will cultivate the fields? Who will defend the kingdom? Besides, Jinxia is just a city. Can it really accept so many outsiders? The officials and people under my rule are already anxious, for fear that they will be detained. Victims of the transaction, in the event of an accident, the minister would be completely shameless to face your Majesty."
Wu Yueyao set his sights on this person-Masaru Fujiwara, one of the princes of the Emas Kingdom, and the administrator of the Pali Land north of Ix, is considered to be the core figure supporting the Great Miko.
After he took the lead, other participants also responded.
"Yeah...Thousands of people are not easy to find. The battle with Dongsheng had lost a lot of young people. Now a lot of land is deserted. Can you wait for a few years to start the migration?"
"Aren't we going to be short of people in a few years? I don't think this agreement should be signed at all!"
"Master Qi, this is a bit too much, after all, they did help us repel the enemy's attack."
"Why don't you ask Master May to talk to the other side and increase the amount of silver as compensation?"
"You will pay for the extra money? I just can't afford that much money anyway."
Suddenly, there was noisy in the hall.
The Queen of Evil Horse just sat on the sidelines and watched, and did not come forward to interfere with the disputes of the people. It seems to her that such arguments are conducive to the balance of power.
At this time, a white-haired old man brought the topic to Wu Yueyao, "Master May, I don't know what you think?"
His opening silenced the discussion.
As an assistant to the queens of the past, the Yuan family has always been a prominent family in the evil horse kingdom. Although the current Patriarch Yuanjiuji is old, he is still Chiba Zhizi's most trusted minister of the humerus.
"The connection with Jinxia is on you alone. It can be said that no one here knows Jinxia better than you." He touched his beard and said unhurriedly, "You think if we want to modify the alliance treaty, What kind of reaction will there be?"
In Mayyao's mind, the people of Jinxia City couldn't help but appear.
Especially Mrs. Xia who gave her a glimmer of hope when she was desperate.
There is no doubt that the other party is the friendliest ruler she has ever seen.
She couldn't imagine Jinxia meeting with evil horses in turn.
"Probably... will be disappointed," Wu Yueyao said softly.
"Puff—disappointment? What is that?"
"Ahem, did Master May say that the other party would only get sulking?"
There was a burst of laughter at the scene.
"That's it?" Yuanjiu frowned, "Do you think they will not take any sanctions, or will they support Dongsheng or Anjia instead?"
"I think... this possibility is very low." Wu Yue said frankly, "Jinxia needs to deal with the pressure brought by the privy government of the other five countries, and has no energy to take care of the evil horse kingdom for the time being. Of course, such a breach of contract will also make us completely lose the mainland. Allies."
After a moment of silence in the venue, a voice rang, "Then what else should we worry about?"
This sentence was like the voice of the people, and it caused a wave in an instant.
"But we can't express our attitude so straightforwardly. We still need to buy some more weapons." Fujiwara cleared his throat and said, "Master May, you may need to trouble you to run more at this point."
"What about the commercial port? It is always a good thing to be able to do business."
"We can first send a group of envoys or monks to Qiguo to promote the evil horse. Now that the channel is open, even if Jinxia cuts off diplomatic relations with us afterwards, we can't help the merchants below."
Wu Yueyao looked at Her Majesty the Queen, "Do you think it is really good to do this...?"
"Hey..." Chiba Zhizi finally changed her posture and sighed, "Evil horses also have the difficulties of evil horses. Repairing war-damaged towns requires silver and manpower, and the fields also need farmers to cultivate, and the silver can be evenly distributed. Some came out, but it was really hard to get the manpower. And you mentioned that Jinxia is at war with the Qi royal family, and the Privy Council of neighboring countries is also about to move. How can you let everyone relax."
"What if I can convince everyone?"
These words were like stones thrown into the water, and ripples suddenly appeared in the crowd.
Ignoring those whispers, May stood up and looked straight at Fujiwara Masayoshi, "Fujiwara-sama, can you really not have a thousand people in your territory? I didn't come to Yixie the first time after I returned to Yixie, UU reading www .uukanshu.com is to go around the area to check the situation on the ground. There are a large number of farmers in your territory who have lost their land, and the number is more than a thousand? But they are all controlled by big landlords and families, and they are not farming day after day. The farmland that belongs to them, am I right?"
"Master May, is there any problem with this? I can't force them to hand over all the people they buy, right? Besides, the good land will be abandoned if it is not planted. In order to avoid famine, of course, my territory must continue to maintain production. OK."
"But what I see is that the residents of Xiacheng district are all yellow and thin, and they don't seem to be satisfied with food and clothing, and the estimated output of farmland even exceeds all the needs of the Bali area." Mayyao raised her voice." Excuse me, where did all the extra food go? It's impossible for them to fly away!"
Masaru Fujiwara's face sank.
The two attendants behind him also stared angrily, revealing an expression of insult to death.
And Wu Yueyao was unmoved, and said to herself, "In fact, everyone here knows where the food has gone-because this kind of thing not only happened under the rule of Lord Fujiwara, but your usual practice. They all exist high In the granary surrounded by the wall compound, waiting to be exchanged for other more valuable materials, such as jewelry, such as muskets and ammunition! What you lack is not people, but your greed!"
