#1083 - Chapter 1083: Lieyan Goes to Rob Relatives

"I understand now! Since that's the case, I have nothing more to say." Cheng Bang immediately showed his compliance after hearing this.

Marquis Lie Huo also understood after hearing the messenger's explanation.

With that, he no longer had any other concerns.

"Since Lord Agong agrees, let's depart tomorrow then," the messenger nodded.

"Take Yao Tao to Jin Di, I won't go," Cheng Bang shook his head.

"You're not going? Why?" The messenger was somewhat surprised.

The King hadn't ordered that his father must go. However, such a great opportunity was not one that most people would miss.

The reason Cheng Bang was unwilling to go was because he had other things to do. Moreover, Jin Ji had seen him, so going directly would expose him.

"I'm old, so I'll stay in Yan Di to retire. I think Marquis Lie Huo will take good care of me, right?" Cheng Bang looked at Marquis Lie Huo.

"Of course! Of course! With Yao Tao marrying the King, you will be the Grand Duke of Jin. I will naturally take good care of you and won't let you suffer," Marquis Lie Huo guaranteed.

"Since that's the case, then I won't force it," the messenger accepted readily.

The next day, the messenger took Yao Tao and embarked on the journey back to Jin Di.

"Marquis Lie Huo, I suggest you move your clan to a place further north. Yan Di is no longer a place to stay," Cheng Bang advised.

"Why does the Grand Duke say that?" Marquis Lie Huo didn't understand.

"What does Marquis Lie Huo think of Yao Tao's beauty?" Cheng Bang asked.

"Her beauty is pure and exquisite, her beauty is ethereal," Marquis Lie Huo replied.

"The King will surely be infatuated with Yao Tao. The lords, unaware of the inside story, may blame you," Cheng Bang explained.

"What does this have to do with the lords?" Marquis Lie Huo didn't quite understand.

"The King, infatuated with Yao Tao, will surely indulge in pleasure and become lazy in government affairs. In that case, the lords will suffer as a result. They wouldn't dare to blame the King, and will inevitably vent their dissatisfaction on you," Cheng Bang replied.

"Why would the lords suffer?" Marquis Lie Huo continued to ask.

"Before, the King liked to eat salted fish, and La Di became poor as a result. If he indulges in pleasure in the future, will the suffering lords be few?" Cheng Bang reminded.

"Hiss ~" Marquis Lie Huo felt a chill down his spine upon hearing this.

A small hobby of eating salted fish could lead to the poverty of a tribe. If he had a few more hobbies, wouldn't the whole world be ruined?

"Marquis Lie Huo, please make a decision early!" Cheng Bang reminded.

Cheng Bang's real purpose was not to have Marquis Lie Huo move the tribe, but to make him develop more and more dissatisfaction with the King.

On this basis, slowly provoke the conflict between the two sides.

When the time is right, Lie Yan will need to take over his position and carry the banner against Jin.

Of course, it doesn't matter whether their war against Jin can be won. As long as internal strife arises, the righteous character that the Nata tribe has accumulated will be wiped out.

This is what he wants, and this is what Guiguzi wants.

"Grand Duke, I think you are too pessimistic. I know the King's character, he will not become lazy in government affairs because of a woman," Marquis Lie Huo shook his head and said.

"People change," Cheng Bang said.

"Then let's wait until the King changes, and we'll discuss the matter of migration," Marquis Lie Huo said.

"Since that's the case, then let's just watch," Cheng Bang said no more.

"Chief, something bad has happened!" Suddenly, a servant ran in anxiously.

"What happened? Why are you being so reckless?" Marquis Lie Huo looked displeased.

"Chief, the young master... the young master..."

"What happened to the young master?" Marquis Lie Huo suddenly felt uneasy.

"The young master... has run away!" the servant replied.

"Run away?" Marquis Lie Huo didn't understand.

Lie Yan is not a criminal, how can the word 'run away' be used?

"Could it be..."

"Not good!"

Marquis Lie Huo suddenly thought of a possibility.

"Quick! Quickly take some people and chase after them in the direction the messenger left. If you find Lie Yan's trail, immediately capture him and bring him back to me!"

He speculated that Lie Yan might have gone to chase Yao Tao.

If there is a conflict with the messenger, it would be no joke.

If the King finds out, I am afraid that the entire Yan Di will be implicated as a result.

"Yes!"

The servant took the order and immediately led people to ride the dung beetles out of the city.

30 kilometers south of Yan Di City.

It was noon, and the messenger's team was resting in the shade of a tree.

"Crack, crack ~"

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the forest.

"Protect Yao Tao!" the messenger shouted.

The warriors immediately stood near Yao Tao, forming a protective circle.

"Crack, crack ~"

The movement in the forest became more intense.

Everyone looked at the place where the sound came from, wanting to know what was in the forest.

"Huff ~"

A giant fern leaf shook, and suddenly a dung beetle rushed out, charging towards the crowd.

The dung beetle was running very fast, and it was impossible for the warriors protecting Yao Tao to stop it.
