"Welcome to the Grand Marshal to win and return to the court." Ten miles outside Jiazhou City, the Chinese civil and military officials of the court had been waiting here for a long time. When they saw Li You's team coming, they all bowed over to celebrate this great victory. Since the defeat of Haoshuichuan, the Great Wei Dynasty has not had such a brilliant victory for a long time. Even though Li You annihilated tens of thousands of elite northern enemies outside the capital, it still could not stop the fall of the Great Wei capital. This time, the great defeat of the Southern Barbarians could finally make them boast openly.

In addition, this victory also allowed King Fu to temporarily overwhelm the other kings on this land. The Shu road blocked the foreign enemies and made King Shu unable to expand outward. King Yue's territory was surrounded by King Fu from three sides, and now he could only step up conscription to prevent Li You from leading his army to attack from the land. Although King Qi summoned his troops to march towards the capital and tried to take down the capital to occupy Dayi, although the troops in Xu Shiyong's hands did not have much combat effectiveness, he had the support of the tribes in Mobei. The King of Qi, who was struggling with the Mobei cavalry, was exhausted. Not only could he fail to attack Jingji Road, but he was even led by Yeluhan to attack into his territory and robbed several prefectures and counties. As for Xu Shiyong, dealing with the attack of King Qi and the rebels that were rising in the territory were enough to make him a headache, and he had no energy to think about other things.

The slightly better ones are the Northern Yuan and King Fu. The Northern Yuan still has the most powerful army. The establishment of a capital in Longcheng has made them famous. Grassland tribes continue to move from the desert north to the Northern Yuan to surrender to Arubu. At first glance, it really looks glorious.

Although King Fu was harassed by the Southern Barbarians, he was defeated by Li You in a battle. With Jiang Suiyun and Shi Hong, it was also expected that Lingnan Road will recover more luck than in the past. In addition, Jiangnan West Road and Huainan Road have always been relatively wealthy places in the Great Wei Dynasty, and King Fu also seemed to have gradually gained a trace of the atmosphere of King Qi, King Shu and King Yue, and many scholars who escaped from the Northern Yuan Dynasty did not stay in the territory of King Qi, but went to Jiazhou for a long distance to serve.

"I'm sorry, you guys, come to welcome you here." Seeing this, Li You turned over and dismounted, and helped Yao Guangxiao, Sima Cuo, Fan Li and others in front with a smile. The officials behind him also stood up and threw the praises as if they were not worth it.

"Everyone, this is not a place to speak. I think I'd better go back to the city first. I will go to report the results of this southern expedition to Your Majesty." After chatting for a few words, Li You got on the horse again, walked side by side with Yao Guangxiao and others, and asked about their recent changes, "What new changes have happened during the period when I left Jiazhou?"

"After the lord left Jiazhou, some people began to go in and out of the mansion of Mr. Qian, saying something to him, such as not letting the generals become bigger, but Mr. Qian was criticized by Mr. Qian. Those who made suggestions were ashamed and dared not take it, and they all resigned from office and left." Yao Guangxiao's triangular eyes narrowed slightly and said slowly; of course Li You would not believe that these people were so thin-skinned. He was willing to resign after being scolded by Qian Sa for a few words. This must be the contribution of Yao Guangxiao.

"Some people also advised Mr. Zhou to report that His Majesty will re-open the imperial examination, but was dragged down by Mr. Zhou, saying that he would wait until his lord returns to Jiazhou before making a decision." Yao Guangxiao continued. These people wanted to take advantage of Li You's absence, and the intentions were not difficult to see.

"In addition, after the Yongzhou historian was dealt with, some officials were privately dissatisfied, saying that the truth of the emperor doing this is too ignoring the decency of these aristocratic families." Sima Cuo also interrupted.

"With these people's dignity, the people will have no way to survive." Li You said disdainfully, "Continue to stare at them. It would be fine if they vent their complaints privately, but if they enjoy taking action, report it immediately. If the situation is urgent, you can take action first and then report it."

"As for the order. In addition, after the defeat of the attack on the capital, the troops under the King of Qi have been retracted back to Henan Road. In addition to leaving the troops to guard against Yalehan's attack on the border, there is also a group of troops quietly heading south. Now they have reached the junction with Huainan Road. I am afraid they have other ideas for us." Sima Cuo sent another news that was unfavorable to Li You, "The people from the Black Ice Platform also saw a big merchant from Jiangnan East Road near the King of Qi's Mansion. After verification, this person was quite embarrassed at the King of Yue's Mansion."

"Oh? Are King Qi and King Yue planning to cooperate to attack us?" Li You couldn't help but frown. Now that his new warship has not been built, it is not easy to completely annihilate King Yue.

"They seem to have this idea. The people in Shu also saw the envoy of the King of Qi in the Shu Palace. Perhaps it was because the lord fairly settled the Southern Barbarians too quickly, which made them feel alert." Sima Cuo was not very panicked, "According to the Black Ice Platform, these envoys had just started to contact each other, and it was not so easy to reach cooperation."

After entering Sima Chou, Li You also understood the key points. Whether it is the King of Qi, King of Yue or King of Shu, they did not want to be vanguards, they just wanted to hide behind others to get cheap. King of Qi must want King of Yue and King of Shu to attack from the east and west, and then he took advantage of the opportunity of Li You's army to mobilize and attack from the north and seize a large area of ​​land in Huainan Road; and King of Yue must want King of Qi to attack Huainan first, King of Shu attacked Jiangnan West Road, and then went to Lingnan Road to pick up cheaper. I thought that King of Shu would have the same idea.

"These people are not very capable in leading troops to fight, but they play with conspiracies and tricks." Li You smiled. These three parties are all "smart" people, and I believe no one is willing to make wedding dresses for others to take the lead in launching an attack. Therefore, although the current situation of King Fu seems a bit dangerous, he is actually restless.

"Where is the Beiyuan?" After saying that, Li You continued to ask. For him, Arubu in the north was the most dangerous enemy in the Central Plains.

"Yuan Zhang has already opened the first enrollment period of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, calling on all the knowledgeable people in the world to take the exam. Unfortunately, not many people responded. The scholars in the Northern Yuan Dynasty went south to escape, and in the end less than a thousand people took the exam. Yuan Zhang pinched his nose and admitted most of them. Those with a little ability were given official positions, which made the leaders of the northern tribes dissatisfied with the leader of the Mobei tribe." Sima Cuo said slowly, "Those tribe leaders who consciously suffered losses began to collude with the shamans and tried to be unfavorable to Yuan Zhang in front of Arubu."

It seems that internal strife is inevitable for any court, but the internal friction of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was a great benefit to Li You. He would not stop it, but instead wanted to help them push it. (To be continued.).
