Chapter 375

After the court was dismissed, Jackson looked at Jisoo and Lisa, "We might not meet each other for a long time after this. Take care of yourself, Jisoo."

"I'm not like you who cannot take care of yourself, third brother," Jisoo snorted in disdain, "Anyway, why did they suddenly strike? The report is not that complete."

On the side, Shu felt that this prince was blaming him. In any case, he was not the one writing the report.

He was only announcing the important point, so they could know the gist of the situation.

If they wanted the complete report, it would be the one handed to the emperor and prime ministers.

Jackson shrugged, "Blame Leo if you want. He's the one preparing for the report."

"Where is that old man?" Lisa hadn't seen his grandfather for a long time.

Usually, that shameless old man number two would be pestering him to no end and complaining about Lisa's attitude towards him. Not that Lisa would listen, though.

"I told him to amuse that princess and Ashan. The negotiation hadn't been over yet," Jackson answered.

From all the officials in court: Why would you send that shameless old man to keep the princess and Tang Xuan busy?

Lisa knew that his grandfather must be making fun of himself while trying to keep the princess and Ashan busy from noticing this matter.

The two of them will be kept in the dark about the matter first.

They would be the first ones to complain if something happened in the Yuan Kingdom because it would affect the negotiation greatly.

Since they came from the Yuan Kingdom area, it would be hard for them to return if the rebels were not pacified first.

"Let's return to the topic, why did they suddenly rebel?"

"The emperor had announced that he would step down after the matter was over.

However, some people are against him giving the kingdom to other people outside of the Yuan Kingdom.

Not to mention that the Yuan Kingdom became a subordinate kingdom, which greatly ashamed them.

Thus, they have been planning to launch an attack on us. I have captured some of them before this, but the plan goes on and they finally struck us a few days ago," Jackson explained fully.

Lisa nodded his head. Their act of unifying the entire land was not completely supported.

There would still be some people who are against this idea across the entire country.

If the number was a lot, they might join hands and launch an attack together.

"What about those nobles on the northeast, why are they still alive?" Lisa narrowed his eyes.

Jackson sighed, "We didn't kill everyone on the court when we conquered the area because some of them are quite capable. However, I have neglected the people who supported the slave system, allowing them to be free and collect their supporters to change the system again."

Among the previous five kingdoms, the Kai Kingdom was the only one that used the slave system without payment and the slaves had no rights.

They used the orphans to become slaves from a young age making them unable to work by themselves.

Ever since Jackson managed to take hold of the kingdom, he had been sending them to learn about things like farming or anything else.

He wanted them to live a better life and even if they were to become a servant, they would be paid and have a good living conditions.

Lisa nodded his head. He knew that they must have wanted to use the manpower for free without caring about their condition.

If they used the same way as the other country, there were still servants, but their living condition was far better.

Besides, the servant might get out of the residence if they were to be married away or they have someone paid for them.

"What about the orphans?"

"I have built an orphanage for them," Jackson shrugged, "Most of them ended up becoming servants, but the contract stated that they must be provided with acceptable living conditions and not be abused without reason. Though I doubt it's going to work."

Their fate would depend on their master. If they got a good enough master who provided them shelter and food every day, they would be lucky.

After all, most of the servants in that area could not live enough and they looked even worse compared with people who lived in rural areas.

"The one who rebels should be those who have enormous business previously, right?" Lisa asked.

Jackson nodded his head, "Shu, the list."

Shu handed them the list, and Lisa read them carefully. Indeed, most of them were people who had enormous profits every month.

Now that they had lost the free slaves and changed them to servants, they needed to pay more attention to the living conditions, reducing their overall income.

For those greedy people, these new arrangements were unacceptable.

"They are greedy like Jackson," Jisoo commented as he looked towards the list.

"Your brother is not greedy," Jackson retorted in disagreement.

"Right, you're not just greedy but super greedy money-grubber," Jisoo nodded his head with a mischievous smile.

Jackson ignored his infuriating brother and turned his attention back to the paper before him.

"Do you think Jisoo can lead the soldier, Lisa ?"

"Not at all," Lisa answered.

Jisoo nearly toppled out from his chair once again.

This young general was seriously ridiculous!

If he thought that he couldn't do it, why did he utter his name in the first place?

Come on, it shouldn't be a problem to go there by yourself, except for the fact that he would miss his wife's delivery.

"I don't need him to handle the soldiers. My men would be enough to handle them. What you have to do is talk your way with them and show them that the Yuan Kingdom will thrive under the Long Kingdom," Lisa  looked towards Jisoo, "You can do it, right?"

Jisoo sighed to himself. That was more acceptable but can't this man say that matter in the first place and not say things piece by piece?

He nearly made people fall from their chairs twice today.

"Don't worry. If it's about leading people, I can do it," Jisoo  answered confidently, "At least, it would be better compared with the third brother."

Jackson genuinely wanted to throw his brother out of the window.

He glared at his brother, but Jisoo just walked out calmly to prepare for his departure.

Lisa shook his head at these two antics and went out to find his grandfather too.
