Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 644: Evil Horse Dispute

Island of Evil Horse, in the Mansion of Evil.

People are gathering together to discuss government affairs and the situation on the island.

The first person sitting in 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 stable. However, after experiencing the competition from many forces, she was obviously a little bit powerless. She lost weight for a few laps, not to mention, and she spoke less and less frequently in meetings, and more often she let trusted people make decisions for herself.

Mayyao 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 noisier. This shows that the situation is changing for the better-Dongsheng’s momentum is no longer at the beginning, even if it’s not in a short period of time. A complete victory was achieved and the rebellious princes were completely wiped out, but at least Yixie and the surrounding areas would no longer be threatened by the enemy.

However, there was no trace of joy in her heart.

The issue soon turned to the issue of population migration.

"Your Majesty, I don't think this can go on anymore." A middle-aged man in a long gray coat took the lead and said, "Jinxia requires that 20,000 people be moved every year, and there are thousands of them in each town. Many. If they are sent 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 and fearful. I became a victim of being traded. In case of accidents, the minister would be shameless to face his majesty."

Mayyao set his sights on this person---Maji Fujiwara, one of the princes of the Equestria Kingdom, and the manager of the Pali Land north of Ixie, is 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?"

"Will we not be short of people in a few years? I think this agreement should not 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 increased amount of 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 in 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 Yema 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 What kind of response will there be to the alliance treaty?"

Mayyao couldn't help but think of all the people in Jinxia City.

Especially Master Xia who gave her a glimmer of hope in despair.

There is no doubt that the other party is the friendliest ruler she has ever seen.

She couldn't imagine Jinxia meeting the evil horses in turn.

"Probably... will be disappointed." Wu Yueyao said softly.

"Puff—disappointment? What is that?"

"Ahem, Master May said that the other party will only be 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 turn to support Dongsheng or Anjia?"

"I think...this possibility is very low." May said frankly, "Jinxia needs to deal with the pressure brought by the Privy Council 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 will also make We have completely lost our 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 everyone, and it caused a wave in an instant.

"But we can't express our attitude so straightforwardly. We still need to buy more weapons." Fujiwara cleared his throat and said, "Master May, you may need to trouble you to run more at this point."

"What about trade ports? 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 after Jinxia, ​​we can't help the merchants below."

Mayyao 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 their problems. Repairing war-damaged towns requires silver and manpower, and the fields also need farmers to cultivate. The money can still be spared, but the manpower is indeed difficult to gather. 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 are like stones thrown into the water, and there is a ripple in the crowd.

May I ignored those whispers, stood up and looked straight at Fujiwara Masayoshi, "Fujiwara-sama, can you really not get a thousand people from your territory? I didn't come to Yix the first time after I returned to Yixie~ IndoMTL.com~ just go to the surrounding area to check the situation on the ground. There are a large number of farmers who lost their land in your territory, 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 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 bought, right? Besides, the fertile fields will be abandoned if they are not planted. To avoid famine, of course my territory must continue. Maintain production."

"What I can see is that the residents of Xiacheng District have yellow and thin faces, and they don't seem to be satisfied with food and clothing. The estimated output of farmland even exceeds all the needs of the Bali area." Mayyao raised her voice. Said, "Where did all the extra food go? It's impossible for them to fly away!"

Masai Fujiwara's face sank.

The two attendants behind him also stared angrily, showing an expression of insult to death.

And Wu Yueyao was unmoved, and said to herself, "In fact, everyone here knows where the food went-because this kind of thing happened not only under Lord Fujiwara's rule, but your usual practice. They are all stored in the granary surrounded by the high-walled 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!"
