Chapter 2340: Mission 20

“Your Majesty, I have an idea, although I’m uncertain of its feasibility.”

The Emperor of Jinwei Land, growing somewhat impatient, replied, “Regardless of feasibility, please, proceed. In our current predicament, having any potential solution is already a welcome development.”

Zhang Cailiang, sensing the urgency, wasted no time and explained, “Your Majesty, it seems clear that neither officials’ families nor common households can retrieve the women from the pagoda. This suggests that Xu Xunnan and the pagoda possess a protective influence.”

“For centuries, the women of Jinwei Land have been unable to cultivate, resulting in their marginalized status.”

“Ordinary women are treated as subordinates, even lower than servants, creating a discontent that unites them.”

“Our approach may not be to target the people directly, but rather to focus on their leader, Xu Xunnan.”

“She’s currently in the spotlight, leading a significant number of women.”

“Nonetheless, the future may not be as accommodating. Once we’ve managed to pacify these individuals, they cannot remain within the pagoda indefinitely.”

“In that case, we can negotiate with Xu Xunnan. If she is willing to cooperate with you, dealing with those women should become considerably more manageable.”

“At that point, you needn’t fret about Jinwei Land reverting to its former state.

Do the people hold you in high regard?”

After Zhang Cailiang concluded his analysis, a faint smile touched his lips.

The Emperor of Jinwei Land, upon hearing this, recognized the practicality of the proposal in the current circumstances.

“But Xu Xunnan is quite obstinate. Even Minister Xu finds it challenging to sway her. What conditions could entice her to agree?” inquired the Emperor of Jinwei Land.

Zhang Cailiang grinned. Evidently, he had anticipated this query. “When I devised this plan, I naturally considered the conditions.”

“Simple.”

“After all, she is just a woman.”

“Women’s desires are quite straightforward.”

“We offer her supreme status, the prestige of a Paragon, as well as vast riches, gold, silver, jewelry, and wealth. She may select any outstanding man within Jinwei Land.”

“These incentives should prove enticing to a woman, don’t you think?”

“Moreover, all of these are easily within the Emperor’s means.”

“As the situation gradually stabilizes, we can more easily manage her over

time, ” Zhang Cailiang suggested.

As the Emperor of Jinwei Land attentively absorbed Zhang Cailiang’s proposal, a smile gradually graced his countenance, reflecting his satisfaction.

However…

Despite his contentment, Zhang Cailiang remained mindful of his relatively lower status as a thousandth of a tael (use it judiciously) official.

Upon concluding his statement, he shifted his gaze towards Xu Yuanlong. It was apparent that he was considering whether Xu Yuanlong might take offense, given that she was his daughter.

Recognizing this, Xu Yuanlong swiftly reassured, “It’s my duty, it’s my duty. Xu Xunnan has committed such a disgraceful act. It’s my responsibility to address it. If there’s any way I can be of assistance, I will not hesitate!”

Regardless of Xu Xunnan being his daughter, Xu Yuanlong comprehended the hierarchy of importance in this matter..
