"Brother?" Su Yeli looked at Bhava Kshatriya and asked.
"I don't know either." Bhava smiled bitterly. Originally, he was supposed to be Varman II, but with the current situation, who knows what the future will be like?
"Actually, I'm telling the truth. Father and eldest brother don't care." Su Yeli hesitated and said.
"Do you want to say that we are the same as Xue Yantuo's Pearl Khan?" Varman I glanced at Su Yeli and asked.
"Well, this seems to be the safest and one of the least risky options for us. Although everything is really comfortable for us now, in fact, these nobles are too greedy. They are so greedy that they do not give food to the people at the bottom. They won’t get any benefits, but use violence to make them submit.”
"Although we have been living a better life in the past few years, the lives of the people at the bottom have not been better. There have been many resistance incidents this year. Although they have been suppressed, sooner or later there will be A bigger disaster is coming."
"The reason why there is no large-scale uprising or conflict among the people is because we are now backed by the Tang Dynasty, and many people at the bottom do not dare to oppose the Tang Dynasty. If they can't bear it, the situation will be different. We are really weak. What’s left of our army now, and among such a large army, I’m afraid there are many people who have objections to these nobles.”
"And these nobles are too closely entangled with our royal family. If we want to deal with them, we have no way to deal with them now. But at this time, if we hand it over directly to Datang and our family withdraws in time, the situation will be different."
"We don't have to worry about the risks of real wax in the future, and these people naturally have people from Datang to deal with them, avoiding the risks we have to bear."
"Because once there is a rebellion or other situations, the first person to bear the brunt is not the nobles below, but our royal family."
"This is what I think, but if this happens, the eldest brother will suffer a loss." Su Yeli said lightly. With her current influence, she doesn't have to worry about anyone daring to harm her, so she can speak much more directly. .
King Varman I paused for a moment. He knew the situation in the country. He also knew that the vast amount of valuable materials and luxurious enjoyment from the Tang Dynasty had greatly corrupted their aristocratic class.
In order to earn more profits, they will use any means and don't care about the life and death of the people below them.
There have been two large-scale protests this year alone. The largest one involved more than a thousand people protesting in three villages.
If it continues, what about next year or the year after that?
"The fact that the Tang Dynasty destroyed the country in revenge for five Tang people has been spread in our country, and more than 20 noble families in the Queen's Kingdom and nearly two thousand nobles have all been executed. If there are people who want to let the Tang Dynasty be killed by then, The Tang army wiped out us nobles and directly attacked the Tang people in Linyi next door, how should we tell the difference?"
"After all, I don't believe that Benli Shetai didn't argue, but Datang didn't give her a chance to explain." Su Yeli added again.
"This...I want to think about it." Varman I was very confused. He was no longer young. Varman I, who was close to sixty this year, naturally did not have so many ambitions. He did not care about going against the Tang Dynasty. Within the scope of his vision, he also never thought about rectifying domestic chaos and reforming the country.
If something could be done, he would have done it long ago. Since he has not done it, it means that it cannot be done and cannot be done.
Although Datang did not target them, what Su Yeli said was too likely.
"Then my eldest brother and I will leave first. Father, please think about it." Su Yeli nodded and left directly.
Bhava Kshatriya paused and naturally followed Su Yeli out. When outside, Su Yeli said, "Brother, what do you think?"
"To be honest, I wanted to be a king before. After all, power is full of temptations, but what you just said made me suddenly change my mind." Ba Po took a deep breath and said.
"What do you think?" Su Yeli was a little curious.
"Although this position is very powerful and full of temptations, if something happens, I will be the first to be unlucky." Ba Po shook her head and said. Over the years of trading with Datang, Ba Po has often stepped in to deal with it. He also took ships to Guangzhou Port in Datang many times.
His knowledge is no longer that of the prince before, and he sees many things very clearly.
Su Yeli paused for a moment. Indeed, the throne was like sitting on a volcanic crater. If the volcano rested, everything would be stable. If the volcano erupted... Su Yeli was lucky enough to have seen a volcanic eruption, so she knew very well about herself. Brother's idea is right.
If something goes wrong, he, the king, will be the first to be unlucky, and all conflicts will come to him.
"And if you think about it from another angle, the existence of Zhenwax will not last long." Ba Po shook her head and said, "I have seen the current map of the Tang Dynasty in the Tang Dynasty, and the location of Zhenwax will have a great influence on the future of the Tang Dynasty. Strategically, it is best to integrate into Datang."
"And it is impossible for the Tang Dynasty to allow us to exist forever. Even if the current majesty cannot handle it, the next majesty of the Tang Dynasty may not be able to handle it either."
"Once Datang takes care of it, there will be too little left for us."
When Su Yeli saw what Ba Po said, her eyes lit up, and then she whispered quickly: "Brother, think about it from another angle. If the real wax is handed over, we can go to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty, and eldest brother, you But I heard a legend."
"What?" Ba Po was stunned for a moment.
"The City that Never Sleeps in the Tang Dynasty." Su Yeli whispered, "I heard rumors about the City that Never Sleeps in the Tang Dynasty from countless people's mouths. I heard that it was built by His Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty. It is the most luxurious and beautiful city in the world! It’s the highest enjoyment in the world there!”
"I heard that the Zhenzhu Khan and the Marquis Jiang Quhu from the Thirty-six Kingdoms of the Western Regions were frequent visitors to the Evernight City of the Tang Dynasty, including the later Khans of Shiwei who are now enjoying themselves there."
"Many businessmen say that there is the Golden City, a place that symbolizes wealth and luxury. Brother, don't you want to go and see it? I heard that you can see beauties from different countries in the world there, even from the Tang Dynasty. There are all kinds of beauties.”
When Su Yeli talked about beautiful women, her eyes were shining. She had been fascinated by it for a long time. In her opinion, it was simply paradise on earth.
And she also knows that her eldest brother also likes beautiful women. Besides, what man doesn't like them?
Sure enough, after hearing what Su Yeli said, Ba Po's eyes lit up. Who hasn't heard of the legend of the Sleepless City in the Tang Dynasty?
