Chapter 998: When troops are sent out, someone will suffer
After several years of development, the intelligence network in Xiao Tianyao"s hands was no less than that of Tiancang Pavilion, so he quickly found out who was responsible.
Southern barbarians!
To be more specific, they were those people from the old Nanman dynasty.
With the support of the old tribe, the young prince of the old Nanman Dynasty separated from the new dynasty and was called the Western Barbarians. However, the people of the old dynasty were not willing to do this. What they wanted was the entire Southern Barbarians, but……
Their strength was not enough, and after the four countries" war, the new dynasty of the Southern Barbarians recovered after three years of rest and recuperation. The old dynasty was unwilling to guard a corner of the land, and how could the people of the new dynasty be willing to cede such a piece of land to the old dynasty?
They gave ten cities to the East three years ago. Now the Southern Barbarians had become small, so small that the Southern Barbarians Emperor had to think of ways to expand the land.
It was impossible to expand outward. No matter it was the East, the West, or the North, they were not easy to mess with. Looking at the southern barbarians, only the western barbarians who split from their southern barbarians three years ago were soft persimmons. It was best to pinch them.
The Southern Barbarians immediately took action. They first sent envoys to discuss the merger, but they couldn"t reach an agreement.
Then let the fight begin!
The Western Barbarians"s little force was no match for them. In the beginning, they were busy unifying the outside world, to prevent the backyard from catching fire, but the Southern Barbarians didn"t give in at all.
As a result, the Southern Country, which had been peaceful for less than three years, broke out in civil strife again, and this time it was more serious. The Southern Barbarians were determined to destroy the Western Barbarians and restore the original unity of the Southern Country.
The Western Barbarians were gradually retreating, and they were about to lose their hold. Someone gave the Western Barbarians an idea, asking him to provoke the East, preferably Prince Xiao, to be dissatisfied with the Southern Barbarians. In this way, when the East and Prince Xiao take action, the Southern Barbarians will no longer have the energy to care about them.
This was indeed a good idea. As long as it succeeds, not to mention that the Southern Barbarians do not have the energy to take care of them. It will be difficult for the Southern Barbarians to survive.
After careful consideration and careful planning for several months, a conspiracy was launched against Prince Xiao"s only legitimate son.
In the end, the plan was successful, but the young emperor of Western Barbarians did not expect that Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu would find him so quickly.
When he received the letter of questioning from Lin Chujiu, the young emperor was frightened: "What should I do? What should I do?"
But no one could answer him at this time. After offending the East and Prince Xiao, do they, the Western Barbarians, still have a way to survive?
Only the young general who had protected the young emperor and fled to the East said, "Your Majesty, Xiao w.a.n.gfei saved you, why did you do this?"
To avoid being found out, when the little emperor did this, he did not even tell the people closest to him about his plan.
"She saved me for a purpose, and I did it for the good of the Western Barbarians." When the little emperor saw the young general he had always relied on questioned himself, he immediately roared to vent the fear and uneasiness in his heart.
The young emperor shouted and continued without hesitation: "She saved me because I am the prince of the Southern Barbarians. She saved me just to send me back to the Southern Barbarians to split the Southern Barbarians. She is not a good person…"
“Who told you these words?” The young general looked at the young emperor in disbelief. He never knew that the young emperor was thinking this.
The young emperor can be ungrateful, but he can"t even distinguish right from wrong. How did the two of them look like the princes of the same country and the sons of a general?
It was purely a coincidence that Princess Xiao rescued them.
As for the subsequent series of events, to be honest, he understood Prince Xiao’s intention. Prince Xiao sent them back to the Southern Barbarians, and indeed he wanted to use their hands to split the Southern Barbarians, but……
They were also willing. They also want to return to the Southern Barbarians and regain the throne. It can only be said that they were using each other. In the end, who wins and who loses depends on who has more skills.
"It"s Teacher. It was the Teacher who told me. He told me…" The young emperor was frightened by the young general and immediately sold people. The young general immediately sent people to capture the Teacher, but he was told that he committed suicide.
The clues were cut off, and they could not find out who instigated the young emperor.
However, just because they couldn"t find out, it doesn"t mean that Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu couldn"t find out. Lin Chujiu sent a questioning letter to the young emperor just to lure the snake out of its hole.
She didn"t think that the little Western barbarians could attack her son in the territory of the East.
Following the line of the teacher, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu quickly found out that the matter was related to Nannuo Xi, the fifth prince of the South, and the Xue Family of the East.
Nannuo Xi and the Xue Family have a close relations.h.i.+p. The two parties have been together for a long time. This conspiracy against Xiao Zifu was jointly promoted by Nannuo Xi and the Xue Family. Their move could be called killing two birds with one stone. One was to remove Xiao Tianyao"s only heir, the other was to throw the Western Barbarians out with the help of the East, but……
There was no absolute thing in this world. They did not expect that they would eventually be exposed.
The Xue Family was in the East. It was just a matter of Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu raising their fingers to deal with them.
Three days after receiving the news, the entire Xue Family was imprisoned, and the nine clans were executed on the charge of murdering Young Prince Xiao.
In the same month, Lin Chujiu sent troops to attack the South because they had plotted to kill her only son.
Yes, the person who led the troops was Lin Chujiu, and the person who sent out the troops was also Lin Chujiu. It had nothing to do with Xiao Tianyao.
Xiao Tianyao was a Supreme Martial G.o.d. He was from the East. He interferes in the East"s government affairs. If the Eastern people don"t say anything, outsiders will naturally not say anything. But if he leads troops on an expedition and appears directly on the battlefield, it would inevitably be seen as the strong bullying the weak.
Of course, this was not the main point. The main point was that once Xiao Tianyao made it clear that he would go on an expedition, the three countries would inevitably feel uneasy. To get rid of Xiao Tianyao, they will most likely join forces to send troops again as they did four years ago.
Faced with a common and powerful foreign enemy, the three countries will choose to contact each other no matter how many gaps there are, because they have no choice but to join forces.
Furthermore, Xiao Tianyao was too powerful, the Martial G.o.d Mountain wouldn"t be ignored. The Martial G.o.d Mountain will save their face. If they allow Xiao Tianyao to interfere in worldly affairs without doing anything, where the majesty of the Martial G.o.d Mountain will be?
However, Lin Chujiu was different. She was just a woman and a weak woman at that. She sent troops to attack the southern barbarians, the Martial G.o.d Mountain had no control over her.
As for the West and the North, they wanted to take care of it. They knew very well that once the South was destroyed, the remaining two countries would be miserable. However, they didn"t have a good reason and did not dare to confront Xiao Tianyao.
Xiao Tianyao had already announced that the South tried to murder his and Lin Chujiu"s only child. They only want to attack the South. But anyone who wanted to help the South would be killed!
To avenge his son, even if he, a Supreme Martial G.o.d, intervenes in worldly affairs, the people of the Martial G.o.d Mountain will not say anything. The world will also not say a word either……
After all, this was human nature, anyone would do this……
