Chapter 2053 She Wants to Stop the War

Seeing that her daughter insisted on asking questions clearly, Ji Li's expression gradually became serious.

She bent down to lift the table, sat down, and remained silent for a long time before saying, "Tangtang, do you think we are willing to fight?"

"If you don't want to fight, why bother?"

"Tangtang, Mom wants to ask you a question. If you were in a desert without any food or water, would you ask your friends for food in order not to starve to death?"

Ji Tangtang said: "Yes."

"If your partner doesn't give it to you, will you take it?"

"Won't."

"If you still bring the person you care about the most and he is starving to death, will you rob him?" Ji Li asked again, "For example, you like Zhao Shu, Sister Yun, and your two apprentices, or I, your people. Will you watch them starve to death without doing anything?"

Ji Tangtang was silent for a moment and said, "I will discuss it carefully with the other party."

"What if after discussion, the other party refuses?" Ji Li asked with a serious look on his face.

"Aniang, the example you gave is not appropriate. How did we Jiuli ever reach such a critical point of life and death?"

"Why not? Tangtang, you are just the clan leader, and you don't know many things about the clan. Due to the crazy expansion of the Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty, the living conditions of our tribe have been extremely compressed. Not to mention that we still have hundreds of thousands of people. The army needs to be fed, and there are more and more people in the tribe. If this continues, the tribe will not be able to survive at all."

"So, you are using the death of your brother as an excuse to start a war?" Ji Tangtang frowned, "Aniang, you have allowed your brother to do this all these years, allowing the black wizard of Dolma to contact him and go to Dazhou to snatch the so-called dragon vein and dragon energy. This Everything is to promote the outbreak of war? From beginning to end, my brother is just a pawn in your hands? "

The more Ji Tangtang spoke, the clearer he became in his heart and the colder his body became.

What kind of environment has she been living in since she was a child?

Ji Li sighed: "Tangtang, you don't have to say that. I owe your brother nothing. This is his fate. And our Jiuli tribe must continue to survive."

"I can't accept it." Ji Tangtang pushed her hand away, stood up and said, "I use the rights given to the clan leader by the Jiuli Code to order you to stop the war immediately!"

The room was quiet.

Ji Tangtang shouted: "Don't you even abide by the Jiuli Code?!"

"Tangtang, please calm down." Ji Li said, "This matter is no longer something we can decide."

"Why can't you decide? From now on, the tribe will be closed, all tribesmen will be recalled, and no one will be allowed in or out!"

"Are you crazy? You want all your clansmen to starve to death?"

"If it only takes a year and a half, it won't be enough." Ji Tangtang said, "I already know about the tribe's storage."

"Tangtang, this is just what you take for granted. Now the Zhou army has arrived. Even if we stop, they will not give up!" Ji Li reminded her.

Ji Tangtang said: "It is impossible for them to break into our tribe's secret tunnel."

She insisted on stopping everything, recalling her people, and closing the tribe.

This is the supreme right given to the patriarch by the Jiuli Code.

All must obey unconditionally.

Ji Li thought for a while, made a compromise, and said, "Tangtang, this is not a trivial matter. Can you let the elders discuss it before making a decision?"
