"The troops gathered by Zhao against Jinzhou also withdrew, and Nanzhou and Jinzhou escaped disaster!"
In Tianwei's Mansion, Xuan Wei, who was sitting behind the case, read the information in his hand and threw it on the case with a sigh.
There was a bit of regret hidden in her sigh. She hoped that Nanzhou would be captured by the Yan State, and that Niu Youdao would be owed a favor, so that she could take the opportunity to recruit Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao's cultivation is not outstanding, but his talent is valuable, and he can be used as a counselor.
A good counselor can be as powerful as an army, or even better than ten top-level master monks.
Zhao Xiongge and Niu Youdao, if she was asked to choose one, she would definitely choose Niu Youdao without hesitation. No matter how Zhao Xiongge can fight, in the face of the power between countries, the destructive power will be limited after all.
But she doesn't want Nanzhou to be captured. The current situation is the best. She doesn't want the balance of the four eastern countries to be broken, and she doesn't want any country in the east to grow stronger. When Weiguo is unable to do much, the east is the most vulnerable country.
Okay, so they keep each other in check.
So her emotions are somewhat complicated.
Tang Yi on the side tried to ask, "The Yan State was forced to withdraw its troops due to the situation this time. Will it not come back again in the future?"
Facing the situation in Yan State, relatively speaking, her heart still favors Niu Youdao's Nanzhou, and does not want Niu Youdao to get into trouble.
"If there is no big change, it will be impossible for a long time." Xuan Wei stood up and walked back and forth around the long case, "Yan State lost Beizhou back then, and it has been arguing with South Korea for many years.
Are you willing to give up? Now that the government has changed hands, South Korea cannot give up easily. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the country to explain itself. Even if it is just a pretense, the confrontation will continue."
"The Song State has an excuse and can send troops at any time, but it does not dare to fight to the death with the Yan State alone. It consumes too much national power and uses up all its strength. If you are not careful, Song and Yan will be dealt with together.
.The Song State must have kept its excuses and persisted, but they would not act rashly, and they must be instigating South Korea to take action behind the scenes. Zhao State is no longer in civil strife, and is watching from the sidelines. South Korea will not act rashly, and it must be instigating Song State to take action."
Tang Yi tried to ask again: "Will the two countries join forces with Zhao, or will the three countries join forces to carve up Yan?"
Xuan Wei looked back at her and smiled slightly: "The seven countries have been fighting for so many years, and each other's calculations are clear. If Zhao dares to join Han and Song to destroy Yan, our Wei and Qi will not sit idly by no matter what. The west of South Korea
It is a vast desert with countless sand scorpions that cannot be crossed by large armies. If the countries in the east want to march to the west, they can only pass through Zhao State."
"The Jin State on the front is already a headache. How can we make Zhao State stronger? Zhao State can be said to be a dangerous obstacle behind Wei State and Qi State. It is the key to helping the two countries resist the eastern states. The eastern states
Anyone can become powerful, but Wei and Qi will not let Zhao become powerful. This is a major strategy of the two countries."
"If you give in, all kinds of troubles will follow. Once the Zhao State becomes powerful, in order to guard against the Jin State, I am afraid that I will have to kneel down to please the Zhao State in the future. How much price will I have to pay to satisfy people's appetite? Raise people up.
, they won’t accept your kindness, and they will have to raise a knife to you in the end!”
"Once the State of Zhao participates in carving up the State of Yan, the State of Wei and the State of Qi will each send a force to form a coalition to teach the State of Zhao a lesson. In this way, the State of Zhao will either sit back and watch, or...if they don't want to see South Korea carve up the State of Yan,
When the country becomes powerful and threatens itself, the only option is to take advantage of the situation and launch an attack on South Korea. Therefore, South Korea casts a trap again. This circle is a check and balance. If not, after the death of King Ning Shang Jianbo, the internal affairs of the Yan Kingdom will be the same as today.
In such a situation, I’m afraid it would have collapsed long ago.”
Tang Yi nodded thoughtfully, and after following Xuan Wei, she had to admit that she gained a lot of experience.
Speaking of this, Xuan Wei glanced at Tang Yi and said, "It's Niu Youdao himself. Now anyone can see that he is the Shang Chaozong's biggest backer. I'm afraid Shang Jianxiong won't let him go easily."
Tang Yi: "He has Nanzhou troops in his hands. Does Shang Jianxiong dare to act rashly?"
Xuan Wei smiled and shook her head, "In a war involving monks, neither side can do without monks. Otherwise, the heads of generals in a million-strong army will easily be decapitated by the enemy. No matter how powerful the army is, without a command
How else to fight? Dachanshan is willing to cooperate with the Shang Dynasty’s troops to invade Jinzhou in order to intimidate Zhao State. In the final analysis, it is to protect Nanzhou. The Yan State has withdrawn its troops, do you think Dachanshan will still take the initiative to cause trouble? Besides...
"
She paused and said: "They themselves dare not confront Niu Youdao for fear of causing chaos in Nanzhou, but if someone else does it for them... I'm afraid that Dachanshan would like to borrow a knife to kill people, and would like to take the opportunity to use Shang Jianxiong's hand to kill Niu Youdao.
Except! If Dachan Mountain does not cooperate with the Shang Chaozong, the Shang Chaozong's army is just a decoration. If you dare to attack the imperial court without permission, you are seeking death. Do you think Shang Jianxiong dares to act rashly?"
Tang Yi fell silent, frowning slightly, feeling deeply worried about Niu Youdao.
"I am willing to provide shelter for Niu Youdao. I also admire him very much. As long as he is willing to come to my country to help me, all his troubles can be solved. In terms of financial resources, no one in the seven countries can compare with Weiguo. As long as he is willing to come to my country to help me, all his troubles can be solved."
If he is willing to come, I can ensure that his cultivation resources are sufficient, and I can also provide him with greater convenience."
Xuan Wei walked up to Tang Yi, stared at her and said: "If you can persuade him to come, I will suppress other sects for the Shangqing Sect and dedicate a state to the Shangqing Sect!"
She was the first to be tempted to recruit Niu Youdao, but she didn't have such a strong intention to recruit him at first. After all, she was not Tai Shuxiong, and she didn't learn too many unknown things from Shao Pingbo's mouth.
However, she was the first person to pay considerable attention to Niu Youdao. After Niu Youdao robbed the war horse, she met Yuan Gang in the desert. The person behind the man who could drive the Scorpion Emperor, she wanted not to join him.
It’s hard to get much attention.
But he didn't know much more than others. To a certain extent, Niu Youdao was very low-key, hiding behind the scenes in Nanzhou most of the time. Even Shang Chaozong, who was with Niu Youdao, often couldn't figure out Niu Youdao.
It is more difficult for outsiders to discover the trends of the Tao.
But since the drastic changes in Nanzhou and Beizhou, the commotion has become bigger, and Shao Pingbo and Niu Youdao both appeared and entered the attention of all countries.
It is possible that Niu Youdao was responsible for what happened in Nanzhou and Jinzhou this time.
In addition, Tai Shuxiong valued Shao Pingbo so much, which made her desire to recruit Niu Youdao become even stronger.
Who is Tai Shuxiong? He can think so highly of Shao Pingbo, not for no reason.
And in front of him was a man who could defeat Shao Pingbo time and time again!
As for the land promised to Tang Yi, as long as Tang Yi can persuade people to come, it will be given!
If Niu Youdao comes and can play a role, she will naturally find a way to help the Qing sect preserve the territory of that state. If it has no effect, it is no wonder that the territory of the state is taken away by others. No one stipulates that the territory of a sect is
Which sect you always belong to.
The reason why she hoped that Tang Yi could persuade her was because she could tell from Tang Yi's hurried announcement of the divorce that Niu Youdao wanted to keep a certain distance from her. From another perspective, it seemed that he didn't think highly of her and only wanted to marry her.
It's not like she can recruit someone just because she wants to.
Niu Youdao didn't think highly of her, and then she took the initiative to recruit Shao Pingbo. As a result, Shao Pingbo took the risk and left her to go to the poor Jin State, and he didn't think highly of her either. However, the attitudes of these two rivals were surprisingly consistent, which made her feel confused deep in her heart.
Shocked, angry, and even slightly frightened.
Whoever she sends to recruit now is doing so on her behalf. Letting Tang Yi and Shang Qingzong do the persuasion also represents her, and there is an additional possibility of success. She naturally hopes that the Shangqing Sect can persuade them.
Ximen Qingkong on the side glanced at Tang Yi faintly.
The territory of a state? Tang Yi was a little surprised. He didn't expect Niu Youdao to be worth this price in Xuanwei's eyes!
…
Although her complexion is still not very good, Hai Ruyue is already able to walk around, and she has also successively met with some Jinzhou dignitaries to stabilize people's hearts.
Looking at Niu Youdao with a slight smile in front of her, Hai Ruyue could not let go of the resentment in her heart.
Niu Youdao came to say goodbye. He couldn't stay here forever. After all, this was someone else's territory. He was weak and could easily be controlled by others.
"Don't think that just because you came up with some ideas to save me and my son, I can forget about Tian Zhen and be able to thank you!" Hai Ruyue gritted her teeth and groaned bitterly, but Li Wuhua pulled her sleeves and couldn't stop her.
Nowadays, Li Wuhua's threat to her is not much of a deterrent.
Niu Youdao smiled and said: "The eldest princess may have forgotten one thing. I also saved the life of your eldest son Xiao Tianzhen. Of course, I can't escape my involvement in him being taken away by the ghost doctor later, but what I want to remind the eldest princess is
, Xiao Tianzhen’s whereabouts can’t be found by others, so I may not be able to find it. I don’t know whether the eldest princess wants me to find it or not.”
"..." Hai Ruyue hesitated to speak. She really wanted to say that the young master was making a fool of himself here. However, he thought that this guy was indeed extraordinary. He would not mention all his deeds. He could even steal the Red Sun Fruit from the Ice and Snow Pavilion. What else could he do?
Is it impossible?
"Take care, eldest princess." Niu Youdao raised his sword and clasped his fists to say goodbye, turned around and walked away with the sword again.
Hai Ruyue wanted to say something, but Li Wuhua stopped her with her hand, and Li Wuhua followed her out to see off the guests.
When he was sent to the gate of the Governor's Mansion, Li Wuhua suddenly reached out and touched Niu Youdao's elbow, "Brother, don't be the same as her. A woman's thoughts are not important. In the final analysis, I, Wandong Tianfu, have the final say in Jinzhou.
.”
These words were somewhat meaningful, and he gave Niu Youdao a cryptic look.
Niu Youdao understood what the other party meant. He was afraid that if he really got Xiao Tianzhen back, the other party would not want Xiao Tianzhen to return to Jinzhou.
From the other party's point of view, I can understand his thoughts. If Xiao Tianzhen came back, the other party would be embarrassed. Niu Youdao nodded slightly, but did not express his position clearly.
…
Two large birds fell into the vast mountain forest. Gao Shaoyang was supported by a monk and jumped to the ground. He handed over to Zhao Sen who was standing on a rock: "Zhao Fu Ling."
Zhao Sen looked at the other party condescendingly. He had received a summons from the palace on the way and had no choice but to quietly leave the team and return to the area around Jinzhou Fucheng.
He was condescending and had no intention of coming down. Gao Shaoyang had no choice but to raise his head and ask: "Where is the Taoist?"
Zhao Sen said calmly: "He is still in the Governor's Mansion."
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden wing flew down from the air, and the news was taken out. After reading it, a eunuch immediately reported: "Prefectural order, Niu Youdao has left the Governor's Mansion, and it seems that he is leaving the city."
