    When the bearded man heard this, he snorted coldly, "It was your country of Chu that attacked Dayi fifteen years ago. Rather than saying that it was Chu who protected Dayi, it is better to say that Dayi pays tribute to you every year so as not to  It's just an unequal treaty because of being invaded by the Chu State. My Dayi has never been afraid of the small neighboring countries, and I don't need the Chu State to send troops to protect it. Today, I have the mission of the king, and I am here to negotiate with you Chu State!  It is the humiliation of my people in Dayi to pay tribute to the state of Chu again and again. If you have someone from the state of Chu who can solve the problem I asked, I will continue to pay tribute to the state of Chu; if not, then  Please withdraw the troops stationed in our Dayi, cancel our vassal and tribute payment, and return our Dayi country to peace."

    The bearded man is from Dayi, and he is used to speaking rudely, which is considered elegant.

    He really wanted to say, what about paying tribute in exchange for asylum? These tributes are clearly the protection fee that Dayi paid to Chu State to protect Chu State from attacking Dayi.

    After all, a weak country has no diplomacy.

    However, in recent years, the new king of Dayi Kingdom has made great efforts to govern, train soldiers and horses, and the national power is getting stronger. On the contrary, under the leadership of Chu Yao, the national power of Chu State is declining day by day. Even the nearby Tiansheng Kingdom can hardly beat it.

    If not for Chu Xuanchen, the God of War, Chu State would have been eaten away by Tiansheng State long ago.

    ?The State of Chu is now being watched by the Tiansheng State, and after Emperor Hongyuan succeeded to the throne, the national power of the State of Chu has gradually weakened, and the national treasury has been empty.

    The Dayi people are all from nomadic origin. They like to eat meat. They are born with good physical fitness. They have always been brave and good at fighting.

    Therefore, they no longer want to be "protected" by the state of Chu, let alone pay tribute to the state of Chu.

    However, fifteen years ago, the old king of Dayi and Qingyun, the former emperor of Chu, signed a fifty-year tribute contract.

    At that time, the people of Dayi were poor and weak, the old king was greedy for life and afraid of death, and the state of Chu was strong. A small country like Dayi really did not dare to provoke Chu, so it was forced to sign this unequal treaty.

    Not only did the country let Chu State station its soldiers, and it was always threatened, but it also paid a lot of fur, cattle and sheep, silk, yew trees, horses and other things to Chu State every year.

    Afterwards, the young king succeeded to the throne. He was brave and resourceful, worked hard to govern, and made great efforts to develop the economy and military for ten years. Now Dayi has become the overlord of the northwest, and even the small neighboring countries are afraid of them.

    They have become stronger, but the state of Chu has become weaker after Emperor Hongyuan succeeded to the throne, so of course they don't want to pay tribute in a humble manner.

    But he didn't dare to tear up the treaty directly, for fear that people would say that he was not trustworthy in Dayi, so he came up with such a difficult method, so that Chu would withdraw its garrison, and would no longer pay tribute to Chu and become a vassal.

    "It's a child's play, claiming to be a minister and paying tribute is a treaty signed by the two countries, how can it be torn up just because of one of your questions?" Emperor Hongyuan said coldly.

    Now that the state of Chu is weak, even a small country like Dayi dares to be arrogant in front of him.

    The bearded man glanced at Emperor Hongyuan contemptuously, plucked his beard and said, "The treaty that Dayi Kingdom signed with Emperor Qingyun back then was not signed with you, Your Majesty. Since Emperor Qingyun has passed away, after so many years,  There is no need to continue this contract."

    "Emperor Qingyun is the former emperor of the Chu Kingdom, representing the Chu Kingdom. The treaty you signed with him is equivalent to signing with the Chu Kingdom. How can you divide him and the Chu Kingdom into two? After all, it is you  Dayi Kingdom doesn't keep promises, and they don't want to pay tribute anymore, so they make such an excuse. The people of our Chu Kingdom have always kept their promises, and will never do such things that go back on their promises." Emperor Hongyuan said in a deep voice.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
