#1088 - Chapter 1088 Meeting with Bai Yuhou
"We have another matter to specifically inform you about this time," Cheng Bang said.
"What is it?" Marquis Baiyu asked.
"The King actually knew long ago that it would be very difficult to obtain salted fish from La Land," Cheng Bang said.
"What did you say?" Marquis Baiyu jumped up on the spot upon hearing this.
"Every word I say is true," Cheng Bang confirmed.
"How did you find out?" Marquis Baiyu was reluctant to believe it.
If the King really knew about this, then according to his character, he would definitely order him to stop offering salted fish.
However, he had not received such an order.
"This is the reason we came to La Land."
"Young Master Lieyan has a woman he loves named Yaotao. The King, coveting Yaotao's beauty, falsely claimed that she would cause disaster to the Jin Kingdom. The only way to resolve it was to take her as his wife."
"Yaotao!" Marquis Baiyu exclaimed.
"What? Has Marquis Baiyu heard of Yaotao?" Cheng Bang asked.
"Of course. A month ago, the King sent someone to deliver a notice, announcing that he had officially married Yaotao," Marquis Baiyu replied.
"What!?" Lieyan immediately stood up in shock.
Although he was mentally prepared, he still found it very difficult to accept this news.
Seeing how agitated he was, Marquis Baiyu was beginning to believe Cheng Bang's words.
"Young Master Lieyan, don't be so agitated. Now that what's done is done, what can you do even if you're dissatisfied?" Cheng Bang deliberately comforted him.
These comforting words were deliberately said for Marquis Baiyu to hear.
"Alas!" Lieyan sighed deeply after hearing this and sat down again.
"Marquis Baiyu, now that you have received the news, I won't beat around the bush. To be honest, Yaotao is my daughter," Cheng Bang said.
"Your daughter?" The more Marquis Baiyu heard, the more shocked and puzzled he became.
He was shocked because he didn't expect that this Yaotao was married from Yan Land.
He was puzzled because he didn't know why they came to him.
"Yes, my daughter. Logically speaking, the King marrying my daughter should be a great thing for me. However, I can't be happy at all now," Cheng Bang said.
"Why?" Marquis Baiyu didn't quite understand.
"The King likes to eat salted fish from La Land. Are you happy?" Cheng Bang asked rhetorically.
"This..." Marquis Baiyu was speechless.
He was happy at first, but now he was almost worried to death.
"Perhaps you don't know, I used to be a subordinate of the late Jin King Chu," Cheng Bang said.
He needed to use the name of Jin Wangchu to gild himself. That way, Marquis Baiyu would be able to value his words more.
"Is this true?" Marquis Baiyu began to look at him in a different light.
"Of course it's true," Cheng Bang nodded.
"Then why did you go to Yan Land?" Marquis Baiyu asked.
"In the beginning, Jin Wangchu insisted on passing the position of leader to his own son, the current Jin Wangji. At the time, I strongly disagreed because this was destroying the foundation of the Nata tribe," Cheng Bang said.
This topic was relatively sensitive, and Marquis Baiyu did not easily respond.
"The Nata tribe has always passed the position of leader to virtuous successors. This tradition ensures that the Nata tribe can become more prosperous and stronger."
"But Jin Wangchu changed this tradition after obtaining the position of leader from the Yan Land leader. This is pushing the entire Nata tribe into a bottomless abyss."
Cheng Bang's words were clearly a statement.
He was implying to Marquis Baiyu that he did not support the current Jin Wangji, laying the groundwork for later persuading him to rebel.
"Think about it, the salted fish of La Land has not only appeared now, but has been eaten by generations. Then why were the people of La Land very rich in the past, but now they are very poor?"
"If it were a virtuous leader, he would not disregard the interests of the tribe for his own selfish desires," Cheng Bang sowed discord.
Marquis Baiyu still did not speak, but he did not express any rebuttal.
That is to say, he may be thinking, or he may have already understood something.
Seeing his expression, Cheng Bang continued:
"Now we are coming to you for the same reason. Jin Wangji's infatuation with beauty will lead to many tribes repeating the mistakes of La Land."
"Grand Duke is right!" Marquis Baiyu finally spoke.
These words spoke to his heart.
A salted fish can destroy a tribe. What about a beauty? Wouldn't that wreak havoc on the world?
"Although Yaotao is my daughter, I don't think it's a good thing. I think that if Jin Wangchu were still alive, he would not agree with Jin Wangji's actions."
"He can abandon his own wife, how can he treat the tribesmen well?"
"It's a pity that I am now alone, with little influence. It is simply a fool's dream to want to change this," Cheng Bang sighed.
