Chapter 1047 Fat
Later, Dong heard from Bai Qingyan that Chuntao and Chen Qingsheng were in love with each other and were just waiting for Chen Qingsheng to come back, so Bai Qingyan planned to arrange something for them. Only then did Dong give up the idea of arranging a marriage for Chuntao, but she was always worried about why Chen Qingsheng hadn’t come back yet.
Now that Chen Qingsheng is back, even if Bai Qingyan doesn’t worry about doing things for Chuntao, Bai Qingyan’s mother, Mrs. Dong, will definitely force Chen Qingsheng and Chuntao to get married.
Not long after, Bai Jinzhi, Xiao Ruohai, Shen Qingzhu and Chen Qingsheng came in from outside the hall.
Not seeing Xiao Ruojiang, Bai Qingyan asked Bai Jinzhi: “Where is Xiao Ruojiang?”
“He’s still looking for the elephants’ weaknesses!” Bai Jinzhi bowed to Bai Qingyan. “Now that several elephants are wearing chain mail, he’s still looking for a way to break through.”
After a few people followed and saluted Bai Qingyan, they saw Bai Jinzhi hurriedly ran to Bai Qingyan’s desk holding the hem of her clothes, picked up the teacup in front of Bai Qingyan and drank it.
“Eunuch Wei, take the others down! No need to serve here…” Bai Qingyan said to Wei Zhong, and then waved his hand to signal Xiao Ruohai and the others, “Sit down! Chuntao will serve tea!”
“Yes!” Chuntao responded, and first served tea to Bai Jinzhi, Xiao Ruohai and Shen Qingzhu, and finally walked to Chen Qingsheng, holding the teacup and placing it in front of Chen Qingsheng with her eyes lowered.
Chen Qingsheng grew a beard, looking tougher and more steady. He looked at his cousin, feeling very excited, but he also knew that this was not the time to be sentimental. He nodded and thanked her, looking at Chuntao’s rosy cheeks, and subconsciously pinched the hairpin hidden in his sleeve, which was the gift he chose for Chuntao.
“Sister, Xiao Ruohai and Chen Qingsheng gained something from their trip to Tianfeng Country. They told me a little about it on the way back just now!” Bai Jinzhi said and turned to look at Xiao Ruohai and Chen Qingsheng.
Chen Qingsheng quickly turned to Bai Qingyan and said, “During this trip to Tianfeng Country, Lord Xiao and I have investigated the changes in Tianfeng Country over the years…”
Xiao Ruohai also took out a detailed map from his chest and handed it to Chuntao, asking Chuntao to give it to Bai Qingyan.
Bai Qingyan took the map, and Bai Jinzhi also came over and squeezed next to Bai Qingyan to look at the unfolded map that almost took up the entire desk.
“In the early years, the Tianfeng Kingdom was isolated behind the snow-capped mountains, and people thought that the snow-capped mountains were the end of the world. They never thought that there would be Rongdi, Xiliang, Daliang, Dazhou, and Dayan to the west of the snow-capped mountains!” Chen Qingsheng spoke slowly and at a moderate speed, “Mr. Xiao’s map shows what we have learned… The most famous countries around the Tianfeng Kingdom are the Fierce Eagle Kingdom and the Fierce Snake Kingdom. The Tianfeng Kingdom was once bullied by these two countries.”
Bai Qingyan lowered his eyes and looked at the map drawn by Xiao Ruohai. It was the east side of the snow-capped mountains. Just as Bai Jintong said, it flowed in from the sea along the long river. There were grasslands on both sides of the river. When it was still some distance away from the Tianfeng Kingdom, the long river split into two.
The two countries that once bordered the Tianfeng Kingdom were the Fierce Eagle Kingdom and the Fierce Snake Kingdom, but now both of them have completely disappeared…
“Before, when I followed the Third Miss to Tianfeng Country, I was busy with business matters, so I did hear about it, but I never paid too much attention to it. After all, doing business and spreading the information network are the most important things!”
Bai Qingyan nodded. The purposes of the two visits were different, so naturally the concerns were also different.
“On the way to Tianfeng Country with Lord Xiao this time, I told Lord Xiao about this matter. Lord Xiao thought that since the Fierce Eagle Country and the Fierce Snake Country were so powerful, why did they disappear and only Tianfeng Country was left? It was too strange! So he asked me to investigate!” Chen Qingsheng said solemnly, “Later, I heard from the nobles who had business dealings with the third lady that the reason why the Fierce Eagle Country disappeared was because the great wizard of the Fierce Eagle Country created something called ink powder, which can make weapons indestructible! Tianfeng Country dispatched the Elephant Army… After going through untold hardships, they obtained the formula for making ink powder from the Fierce Eagle Country. Later, after mastering the method of making ink powder, they used the excuse that the Fierce Eagle Country massacred the people of Tianfeng Country and destroyed the Fierce Eagle Country.”
Bai Jinzhi was immediately furious. It was obvious that this was an attempt to rob others of their toner. After getting the toner, he even wanted to destroy the country. How abominable!
“The Snake Kingdom feared the elephant army of the Phoenix Kingdom and united with the surrounding weak countries to resist the Phoenix Kingdom, but they still failed to resist the elephant army of the Phoenix Kingdom. Later, the king of the Snake Kingdom surrendered, and the people of the Snake Kingdom and those small countries were all used as slaves of the Phoenix Kingdom. The people of the Phoenix Kingdom thought they were superior, so they put shackles on the people of other countries and made them work all day long, such as mining, herding, serving elephants… doing all the hard work for the Phoenix Kingdom! They called the people of other countries slaves! Only the surnames of the Phoenix Kingdom were noble…”
Chen Qingsheng raised his head and looked at Bai Qingyan. “I heard that when Tianfeng Country was at its most glorious, the most ordinary people in Tianfeng Country would have one or two slaves in their homes, and those who were brought back from other countries and were too young, old or weak to be slaves would be killed on the spot! Slaves who served elephants… and made the elephants sick would also be killed! When the cattle and sheep were taken away by wolves or died of illness while shepherding, the shepherding slaves would also die! In short, because there were so many slaves, they treated the slaves very harshly and did not regard foreigners as human beings at all…”
“Later, about seventy years ago, because there were too many cattle and sheep, the grassland turned into a desert. The people of Tianfeng thought it was a punishment from the gods, so they killed all the slaves who were herding to appease the wrath of the gods. When it didn’t work, they continued to kill the slaves…”
Chuntao trembled when she heard this. How could there be such a cruel country?
Chen Qingsheng continued, “The Tianfeng Kingdom wanted to dye the entire desert red with the blood of those slaves. The slaves did not want to die, so they rose up in resistance. A war broke out in the Tianfeng Kingdom, and it took six years to completely quell the unrest. Later, the population of the Tianfeng Kingdom decreased, and they felt that these slaves of other castes were a disaster. They carried out a massacre of the remaining people in other countries for ten years, until the new monarch of the Tianfeng Kingdom took the throne! In these ten years… almost all the people of other tribes except the Tianfeng Kingdom were killed.”
Bai Jinzhi was furious: “Eldest sister! Are the people of Tianfeng Country still human?”
Bai Qingyan had a calm look on his face, tapping his fingers lightly on the hidden table as he pondered. The Tianfeng Kingdom, which had such a history, had now led the Elephant Army into Xiliang. They had such a bloodline inheritance in their bones. If a war really broke out… the people would definitely suffer.
Today, Da Zhou and Dayan, with their vast arable land and rich minerals, may have become fat meat in the eyes of Tianfeng Kingdom.
Seeing Bai Qingyan’s expression, Xiao Ruohai straightened his back and bowed to Bai Qingyan: “Today, the control of weapons in Tianfeng Country is very strict. All of them are shipped to Xiliang. This doesn’t seem like they are just trying to help Xiliang!”
