Commerce is the best way to resolve conflicts between the two ethnic groups and move toward integration.

Trading with the Northern Yi is part of the plan, but this requires the two tribes to work together to establish a fair business environment.

And safer!

Beiyi has a very vast territory and a large population, making it a big market for Daning.

Nowadays, the Wei and Liang Kingdoms are in conflict with Daning. The national borders are closed and trade routes are cut off. Guan Ning wants to find a new way out for Daning merchants.

Beiyi is a good choice.

It's not barren here.

It is beneficial to each other to exchange what we have and trade with each other.

Many common items in Daning can be sold at high prices when shipped to Beiyi.

Like the rare medicinal materials of Beiyi, special mineral deposits are also rare in Daning.

This is just his idea, whether it can be realized will require the cooperation of the Wuliang Ministry.

He wants to know Duoyan's thoughts.

Is he the person he needs? Can he become a bridge of communication between the two races...

If not.

Then she can only become a vase without any value.

"Mutual trade?"

Hear this.

Duoyan's eyes lit up.

"Is it really okay?"

She showed her expectation, this is indeed a great gift!

Occasionally, merchants would go to the royal city and bring some rare things, and she was very interested in these.

"It's just that I'm afraid it's not possible yet."

Duoyan said: "There is great hostility between the two tribes."

"What do you think?"

"Of course that's good."

Duoyan continued: "The grassland is supposed to be quiet and peaceful. How good would it be to live in harmony without war?"

As she spoke, she looked at Guan Ning and said, "Actually, outsiders have misunderstood my father. My father is the most kind person."

"Your father Khan... is kind?"

Guan Ning shook his head.

It is well known to everyone that all the Northern Yi kings in the past dynasties were violent people.

The earliest Asote tribe was also a subordinate tribe of the Uliang tribe. It was because the brutal rule of the Northern Yi king at that time was unbearable and they were forced to rebel.

Then several tribes followed, forming the current pattern.

In the final analysis, it is the reason for the brutal rule.

Where there is oppression, there is resistance.

The same is true for Wu Liangbao.

Why did Candlefire King Daliba and Yinji King Kuden rebel one after another? Isn’t this the reason?

"If you tell others, they won't believe it, but if you tell your Majesty, you will definitely understand."

Duoyan said: "King Beiyi is the king of the entire grassland. He has to consider many things, especially the relationship with the Asote tribe. But in fact, my father Khan has not initiated several wars."

Seeing that Duoyan's expression was serious and didn't look like she was faking it, Guan Ning listened curiously.

"People will die because of war. This is not what my father Khan wants to see. It is precisely because of this that the population of the grasslands is growing year by year, which also brings many problems."

Guan Ning was slightly startled, frowned and asked, "Is the pasture degraded?"

"You really understand."

Duoyan looked like she had met her soulmate.

Of course Guan Ning can understand that this is the normal development path of the grassland.

Grassland resources are limited. If there are more people, the consumption will increase and the burden will be unbearable, which will cause grassland degradation, and in severe cases, it will lead to desertification...

He understands.

The root of the problem is that there are too many people.

War kills people and solves problems.

I didn't expect Wu Liangbao to have such a vision.

"My father Khan did not start a war like others, but the Asot troops kept provoking."

Duoyan said in a low voice: "Even so, my father Khan is still tolerant. He just put Daliba's tribe where the two tribes meet."

"Because there are many people in the tribe of Daliba?"

"Yes."

Duoyan said: "Daliba is the majority of the Ulliang tribe and has the largest population. Father Khan wants to use this method to reduce the population of his tribe. This is the best way he can think of."

"But Daliba didn't understand and rebelled anyway..."

"Originally, Father Khan had a better way, which was to launch a war, but he was unwilling to do so just because he was kind."

From what I heard, Wu Liangbao seemed to be really kind.

"Father Khan marched into the Central Plains to seek a new place for survival for his people. Unexpectedly, the changes were too fast. The Asote tribe took the opportunity to launch an attack again. The conflict between the two tribes was brought to the fore. Father Khan finally understood that blindly giving in was not the answer.

, it must be completely solved..."

"What do you want to say?"

Duoyan said: "The war between the two tribes covers the entire grassland, which will result in the death of many people. After this, the problem of population growth in the grassland will be greatly solved, and Father Khan will no longer have plans for the Central Plains."

"Our two races have the conditions to live in peace!"

Duoyan looked at Guan Ning.

"I didn't expect that His Majesty, who seems to be warlike, turns out to be as kind a person as my father."

Guan Ning felt a little embarrassed when he said this.

He's not exactly belligerent, but he's definitely not merciful either.

"Since Your Majesty has such an idea, I will do my best to promote it."

Duoyan said solemnly: "When the Beiyi War is over, I think my father will definitely be willing."

"good!"

Guan Ning smiled and said: "If this thing can be done, you will definitely be remembered in history."

"ah!"

Duoyan was slightly stunned.

"That shouldn't happen, right?"

"Why not end the war between the two races and promote the integration of the two races? How great an achievement is this?"

Guan Ning's deliberate encouragement made Duoyan even more motivated.

"I will definitely work hard."

Duoyan looked solemn.

Guan Ning knew that his father had agreed on the marriage.

With Princess Duoyan.

Daning has a bridge of communication with the Wuliang tribe, and they will take it into consideration no matter what they do in the future.

Guan Ning was very satisfied.

"We will rest in Naiman City for three days, and then we will set off back to Daning."

Guan Ning was worried about his homesickness.

"It will be very convenient to come back when the trade route opens."

"Um."

We were very satisfied with this meeting.

Duoyan felt that he had found a good home and the man in his heart.

Emperor Daning had no prejudice against the barbarians, and all he wanted was for the two races to integrate and live in harmony.
