The key is that no one can figure out what is going on between Niu Youdao and Xiaoyue Pavilion.
Niu Youdao directly ignored the three major forces of Yan State and sent troops, proving his influence on the Yan army. This is a very important key.
A letter was sent to Song State, letting Song State understand that he had found the wrong person before. It was useless to go to Yan State's court, the three major factions of Yan State, or even the Shang Chaozong. At least Niu Youdao was fully capable of stopping Yan State.
By sending troops to South Korea, I wonder how the Song Dynasty could cause trouble for Niu Youdao now.
A letter was sent to South Korea, ordering South Korea to stop attacking the Song Dynasty. If they didn't listen, Beizhou would send troops to attack South Korea. As soon as they came out of the secret realm of Tiandu, they threatened South Korea. South Korea didn't believe that the other side dared to fight on two fronts, but they didn't dare to force it.
Youdao: If a dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, you will kill someone, and if a rabbit bites someone in a hurry, it is impossible for the three major Korean sects to cause trouble for Niu Youdao at this time as long as they do not take the wrong medicine.
As for Jin, Wei, Qi, and Xiaoyue Pavilion, raising troops is an important key.
Again, the rabbit bites when it is anxious. Wei and Qi do not dare to push Niu Youdao to death before they understand the situation.
The Jin State was agitated by Niu Youdao's letter. At this time, it was impossible to cause trouble for Niu Youdao.
The state of Yan was delighted to see the change in the situation, and now did not want anything to happen to Niu Youdao.
As for the State of Zhao, everyone now sees them as their lord, begging for intervention from Piaomiao Pavilion, begging for defense, sending troops, begging Yan for peace talks, begging Niu Youdao for a truce, etc. No one dares to offend, and they can only ask for favors from everywhere, regardless of the relationship.
Can the personnel be of any help? Whenever possible, beauty and money will be sent everywhere.
Under such circumstances, Sihai actually wanted to invite other countries to deal with Niu Youdao who was at the center of the whirlpool, but naturally he could not succeed.
After this experience, Fu Hua, Lang Jingkong, Hong Gaitian, and Duan Wuchang were somewhat surprised. They found that they had underestimated their sworn brother. They had heard something about Niu Youdao before, but they didn't expect Niu Youdao.
It has such great influence among various countries.
The four people who met were all thoughtful and had to re-evaluate their relationship with Niu Youdao because they seemed to have seen new value.
As everyone knows, today's Niu Youdao is no longer the Niu Youdao who was hiding behind the scenes in Nanzhou, but jumped directly to the stage to show off his talents, stirring up the situation in the Seven Kingdoms.
In fact, it was helpless. He was forced to this point by the situation. He had no way out. Once he retreated, he would be in doom. How many people would not let him go. Niu Youdao and everyone in the world were enemies, so he could only continue to move forward.
Now that they were already in Yan State, the four of them agreed and rushed to Maolu Villa together.
However, when they arrived, they found that the Thatched Cottage was deserted, but only a vegetable patch of green rice seedlings swaying in the wind.
…
"Oh, you live up to your reputation, you are indeed the one who will captivate the country and the city!"
In the Imperial Palace of Yanjing, the Empress Dowager Shang Youlan of Zhao State was dignified and graceful, looking at the beautiful woman walking in front of her. Without waiting for the other party to greet her, she had already stood up and started talking with a smile.
The woman who came to see her was none other than the beloved concubine of Emperor Yan, Shang Jianxiong, and the beloved concubine of Emperor Mu Zhuozhen of the Song Dynasty. The latter gifted the bird to the former.
"A Que pays homage to the Queen Mother!" The slim A Que saluted with a half-crouched posture.
"No gift, no gift." Shang Youlan stepped forward and lifted the bird up with his own hands, looked at it up and down with a smile, and exclaimed: "It's so beautiful, no wonder Jianxiong likes it so much..."
There were a lot of compliments on his lips, but he murmured in his heart. He looked like this, but he could actually be held in the hands of kings of a country one after another. I really don't know what these men think about him.
She has the capital to be conceited. From her current appearance, you can see what she looked like when she was young. She was also extremely beautiful when she was young, and she was also very popular with the previous emperor of Zhao. Otherwise, she would not be the emperor of Zhao today.
Queen Mother.
In fact, it may be due to bloodline reasons. Almost all women who are descendants of the Shang family are beautiful. From time to time, they will appear to be the most beautiful in the country. It is extremely rare to be as ugly as Shang Shuqing. The Wu Dynasty collapsed.
After that, princes from all sides were proud to marry the daughter of the Shang family. Of course, this was partly because the Shang family was a descendant of the royal family, so marrying a daughter of the Shang family could also highlight one's status.
However, as the Wu Dynasty disappeared for too long, the latter reason gradually became unimportant.
Although Shang Youlan muttered in her heart, she still kept complimenting her on the surface. There was nothing she could do, the situation was stronger than the person.
When she came, Emperor Yan Shang Jianxiong also had a headache.
This is Shang Youlan's natal family, and Shang Youlan is Shang Jianxiong's elder and his biological aunt. There is no way to erase this status. Common people can do whatever they want, and the emperor serves as an example. On the surface, some things
At least there can be no mistakes.
What's more, Shang Youlan cried when she got married and almost hanged herself. She made sacrifices for Dayan to marry and get married. She suffered a lot of grievances for Dayan. Later, she really missed her motherland.
The Yan State has made a lot of contributions. However, later on, its status gradually changed. In the Zhao State's mother's world, its position naturally gradually changed. Now even the Emperor of the State of Zhao has to go to pay homage sooner or later. Zhao State has already
This is her home.
Shang Jianxiong also had his daughter get married. If this embarrassed Shang Youlan, how would other women who got married and get married look at it? Wouldn't it be chilling? He was a little scrupulous.
But Shang Jianxiong knew what she was here to do, to be a lobbyist for Zhao State. The three major factions of Yan State had already made a decision on this matter. He could no longer make the decision and could not give Shang Youlan face, so he found reasons to hide.
Without being seen, people are being entertained with delicious food and drinks.
Shang Youlan would not give up until she could see the Emperor of Yan. She visited Tong Mo and other relevant ministers one by one, and she also visited the queen in the harem, but they all kept talking vaguely.
Although they all shied away, Shang Youlan had the status of both countries. No matter Tong Mo, others or the queen, they had to treat her respectfully and did not dare to neglect her.
Later, under the guidance of Zhao's envoy in Yanjing, he said who in the harem was the most useful person to speak in front of Shang Jianxiong.
So Shang Youlan found Shang Jianxiong's favorite concubine Aque, and this was the scene before her.
Ah Que smiled reservedly and said, "The posture of Puliu is the Queen Mother's compliment."
"It looks good." Shang Youlan held her hand and waved for someone to bring in a bunch of things. Each box was opened, and the jewels were all gifts for Ah Que.
Appreciate each piece of hand.
After giving the gifts, he took the opportunity to complain and told the story of when he was betrothed, saying that women are pitiful and so on. Now when he returns to his parents' home, he is not welcome and cannot even see Emperor Yan.
At the end of the story, I cried and told A Que that she was extremely uncomfortable. I held her hand to comfort her.
I have to say that Shang Youlan has found the right person.
Ah Que has never interfered in government affairs. After meeting Shang Jianxiong, he couldn't help but mention it. Isn't it too callous to say that Shang Youlan went back to her parents' home without even being able to see the emperor? Shang Youlan said
He will not leave until he sees the emperor.
Although Shang Jianxiong said that he had no choice but to do so, he finally met Shang Youlan the next day.
It was unavoidable to be polite when meeting, and some topics were unavoidable. It was impossible for Shang Youlan not to mention the peace talks, but Shang Jianxiong shied away, because he just didn't want to talk to Zhao Guo. To put it bluntly, the Yan army wanted to continue fighting.
Shang Youlan refused to give up, and Shang Jianxiong was forced to have no choice but to drive this person out, so he had to tell the truth, "Auntie, to be honest with you, I can no longer make the decision in this matter. The three major factions of the Yan Kingdom
The conclusion has been reached, as soon as you arrived, the three major factions of the Yan Kingdom have already issued a warning to me, not allowing me to compromise, otherwise the throne will be replaced!"
Shang Youlan: "Jianxiong, I am not unaware of the threat Shang Chaozong poses to you! The demise of the Zhao Kingdom will not be good for me, nor will it be good for you. Are you willing to see the Shang Chaozong continue to be powerful? Jianxiong, you
Don’t you want to curb the expansion of the Shang Dynasty? After all, you are the emperor of the Yan Kingdom, and you still control most of the state capitals of the Yan Kingdom. No one dares to push you into a hurry. As long as you persist, the three major factions of the Yan Kingdom will
I don’t want to see chaos in the Yan country!”
Shang Jianxiong shook his head: "Auntie, today is different from the past. Now there are no external threats to Yan State, and all forces are restricted. The three major factions are not afraid of civil strife at all. When civil strife breaks out, they can easily put out a large army. At this time,
, whoever controls the military power controls the right to speak! If I dare to act recklessly, then I will really give the traitor of Shang Chaozong a chance, and I'm afraid I won't even know how he died. Auntie, this matter
Please stop mentioning it, I’m not trying to shirk it, but I really can’t help you!”
Shang Youlan's eyes were red and she said with tears in her eyes: "Why, why does it have to be like this! I didn't want to get married back then, but you insisted on marrying me over. Now I have a family there, with a whole family of children and grandchildren.
But you can't tolerate my family. You insist on fighting with each other and destroy my family alive. Jianxiong, I treated you very well when you were a child. I will protect you no matter what happens. Now you
If you just refuse to save me, are you trying to force me to death?"
Unable to persuade with reason, I began to move people with emotion.
Shang Jianxiong sighed: "Auntie, don't worry. No matter what happens to the Zhao State, no one from the Yan State can force you to death. If you don't tell me, even the Shang Chaozong will not dare to act rashly against you. You have to respect me."
You, aunt, no matter whether Zhao is here or not, whether you are in Zhao or Yan, I can guarantee that you will be able to have food and clothing, and live in glory and wealth throughout your life!"
Shang Youlan said loudly: "Then can you let my son go? Can you let my grandson and the others go?"
Shang Jianxiong was silent. He could not give any guarantee on this matter because he knew that cutting off the grass would definitely eliminate the roots. How could there be any future troubles? He would definitely do the same thing in his place.
Shang Youlan's tears were streaming down her cheeks, she understood, understood, her children and grandchildren would not be let go.
She also wanted to try her best to fight for it. If Zhao Guo really couldn't be saved, she could save her children and grandchildren, but the other party didn't even agree to this.
Finally, he laughed miserably and said: "Why should I be born into such a heartless and unjust family? From now on, the Shang family and I will never owe each other any favors!" After that, he turned around and left.
