This was the result of Great Zen Mountain and Korea's' failure '.
At the same time, the three major Yan sects' men who had been waiting outside the Southern and Northern Prefectures suddenly entered the city and took over the protection of Shang Chaozong and Shao Dengyun.
The people from Heavenly Jade Sect protecting Shang Chaozong and the others were caught off guard. They didn't know the situation and didn't dare to confront the people sent by the three major sects. With Shang Chaozong's cooperation, they could only watch helplessly as they handed over the control of Shang Chaozong and the others.
The handover of the Northern Prefecture couldn't be completed in a short time. If the Southern Prefecture was in chaos, the Great Zen Mountain might not be willing to cooperate.
The three major sects didn't want any trouble at this time. Shang Chaozong was related to the stability of the Southern Prefecture and couldn't be harmed.
Therefore, they had to take over the protection as soon as possible to prevent Heavenly Jade Sect from acting recklessly.
When a person was under the control of the other party, it was not impossible for a reasonable accident to happen that left the other party speechless.
Taking over the protection of Shao Dengyun was also to stabilize the situation in the Northern Prefecture. The stability of the Northern Prefecture depended on Shao Dengyun for the time being, and they were afraid that Great Zen Mountain would go back on their word. Therefore, while Great Zen Mountain wasn't resisting, they had to quickly seize the initiative.
They didn't want to take over a chaotic Northern Prefecture.
They didn't make a move, but once they did, several places would cooperate.
Across the Southern Prefecture, groups of cultivators galloped through the night on horseback.
After receiving the name list from Shang Chaozong and receiving instructions from Niu Youdao, the Immortal Retaining Sect, Fuyun Sect, and Spirited Beauty Mountain left some people to guard the sects on the surface, but secretly, the three sects sent out all of their forces to protect Shang Chaozong's trusted subordinates and important members.
Their goal was to prevent the Heavenly Jade Sect from purposely leaving a mess for the Shang Dynasty to deal with because of their old and new grudges. Therefore, they had to work together with the people of the Shang Dynasty before the Heavenly Jade Sect could react. They had to separate the important members of the Shang Dynasty from the Heavenly Jade Sect's followers.
It was not that they wanted to start a war with the Heavenly Jade School. However, if the disciples of the Heavenly Jade School dared to act recklessly, the three sects would have to brace themselves and fight it out with the Heavenly Jade School.
Niu Youdao had clearly told them that the Heavenly Jade School would soon be kicked out of the Southern Province!
Once they took control of Bei Zhou, Great Zen Mountain and Shao Dengyun immediately announced that Bei Zhou was Yan territory!
It could be said that South Korea had cut off all ties with South Korea.
In the imperial court in Yan Jin, Shang Jianxiong announced the good news to the officials in a loud voice. The officials were in an uproar, but also surprised. For some people, there was fat meat to eat again.
When the news spread out, the entire Yan Jing was filled with cheers and celebrations. The scholars celebrated and many people drank themselves to death or cried bitterly. The people's morale was greatly boosted!
On the other hand, the Koreans were furious. At the same time, they mobilized their army and prepared to attack!
On Yan's side, Shao Dengyun also deployed his troops to deal with the situation!
The three major Yan sects had already sent an urgent message to the sects within their borders and mobilized a large number of cultivators to Bei Zhou to intimidate them. They were prepared to fight to the death with the Koreans. Let's see if the Koreans dared to act rashly!
The Heavenly Jade School was too passive. They did not make any preparations in advance and did not make any preparations to make the three major sects apprehensive. They were struck first and gained the upper hand. Even if they were unwilling, they had no choice but to accept reality and began to move in batches according to the orders of the three major sects.
Of course, in order to appease the Heavenly Jade School, the three major sects still made some concessions. The Heavenly Jade School did not have to pay the additional tribute that they had to pay in order to take over the Southern Province.
To the three major sects, it was not a loss to increase the income of the Southern Province in the future. It was a matter of both fame and fortune.
Under the rising sun, Feng Entai, who had led a portion of his men to evacuate, turned his head back after descending the mountain. Looking at the buildings that had been renovated not long ago, he muttered to himself, "Brother, that was a good move.
To the upper echelons of the Heavenly Jade School, regardless of whether they were exchanging prefectures for prefectures or not, they all knew that they had lost terribly to Niu Youdao this time. They had been kicked out of the Southern Province by Niu Youdao!
The personnel of the Great Zen Mountain were also moving to the Southern Province in batches.
It was impossible for both sides to move out in full force at the same time. If they left, the two provinces would be emptied.
There was still some chaos in the Southern Province. Some of the rich families were robbed by "bandits" and had a large amount of their belongings stolen. Some people were well aware of who did it, but they wanted to take some of their belongings with them before leaving. As long as they did not go overboard, they could only turn a blind eye to it.
The cries of these unlucky rich families were invisible to the celebratory people of Yan Jing and could be ignored.
The Yan imperial court also dispatched a large number of officials to the Northern Province. Shao Dengyun was unwilling to give up his military power, but he handed over the administrative power of the local areas. This was also something that had been discussed beforehand.
Many people's emotions were stirred at this moment.
The reality that the Northern Province would face in the future had to be admitted. The officials sent by Yan Jing were far inferior to Shao Pingbo in governing the Northern Province. Not many of them wanted to do their work seriously, and many of them went with the goal of plundering the people's wealth. When Shao Pingbo was in charge of the Northern Province, he was ruthless and merciless. In times of chaos, he was strict and balanced. The signs of corruption that were almost wiped out by him made a comeback.
After that, the prosperous scene that Shao Pingbo had built in the Northern Province was completely devoured by those people.
…
At the beginning of the incident, the news spread to the Jin Nation.
"Pfft!" Shao Pingbo, who was sitting in front of the table, spat a mouthful of blood on the table. He held the table with both hands and wanted to stand up, but he could not. His chest rose and fell rapidly, his face was pale, and his body was trembling.
He had spent too much effort on the Northern Province, and it was built on his own. Now that it had returned to the Yan Dynasty, it was equivalent to the years of effort and youth that he had put in was in vain.
He had thought that the Northern Province would not be safe, but he did not expect it to be in such a way. He finally understood Niu Youdao's plan.
He had thought that although he had left, the Heavenly Jade Sect was still in the Southern Province and he could still make Niu Youdao suffer.
He did not expect things to turn out this way. Before he could recover, it was already over.
He had even joined forces with the Heavenly Jade Sect to deal with Niu Youdao. In the end, Niu Youdao forced him away with one hand and kicked open the Heavenly Jade Sect with the other. In the blink of an eye, he had destroyed their alliance.
As soon as he came out of the Southern Province, he beat him to the point that he could not fight back!
He had trampled on his years of hard work in a victorious manner. It was like a ruthless slap to his face!
The higher one stood, the harder one fell. As soon as Tai-shu Xiong lifted him up high, when everyone could see him, he was suddenly pinned with the hat of a crushing defeat, which was clearly seen by those who were staring at him.
"Thief, just you wait!" Shao Pingbo's eyes were burning with blood dripping from his lips.
"Young Master!" Shao Sansheng exclaimed. Then, he turned his head and shouted, "Guards! Guards! "
A few cultivators dashed in and were shocked to see the situation. They did not know what was going on and quickly went forward to treat him.
… …
Tianwei Manor. Xuan Wei, who was sitting behind a desk and reading the report, sighed and shook her head. "It seems that Niu Youdao really can deal with Shao Pingbo!"
Tang Yi, who was listening by the side, looked over in shock.
Xuan Wei turned around and smiled at her, then handed the report to her.
The Northern Province had returned to the Swallows? Tang Yi was stunned after reading it. She asked cautiously, "It was Niu Youdao who did it?"
Xuan Wei smiled. "According to the information that I have gathered, all the signs point to him. If it wasn't him, who else could it be? The Swallows of the Northern Province won the favor of the three major sects of the Yan Sect, forced Shao Pingbo away, and then kicked away the Heavenly Jade Sect that was bothering them in the Southern Province. The Heavenly Jade Sect had worked so hard in the Southern Province to make a wedding dress for someone else. That ex-husband of yours is truly amazing!"
Ximen Qingkong walked over and took the report from Tang Yi's hands.
Tang Yi was still in a daze. Was this really the work of that indolent youth under the peach blossom tree? Had he already flipped the clouds and turned the rain over to such an extent?
Xuan Wei had originally wanted her to keep in touch with Niu Youdao so that she could help her get closer to him in preparation for when the time came. However, just as the words were about to leave her mouth, she froze. Tang Yi had already divorced Niu Youdao of her own accord. Was it appropriate for her to contact him again?
She couldn't help but wonder if Niu Youdao had already prepared for this beforehand. Favors were favors, and things were different. There was no need to get tangled up.
… …
Over ten riders galloped along the official road. Not long after the descent of a golden wing, the riders reined in their horses and stopped.
The travel-worn Cheng Yuandu read the letter from his sect in a daze. He turned to look at the rising sun on the horizon.
After finding out that Niu Youdao was in the capital of Qi, he and his group hurried there. They were now within the borders of the State of Zhao. Who would have thought that such a drastic change would suddenly come from his sect?
The upheaval in the Northern Province had shaken the world!
… …
"It seems like the Han army is already gathering!"
Under the eaves, Guan Fangyi said to Niu Youdao, who was standing beside her.
Niu Youdao didn't think much of it. "The entire Northern Province has already fallen into Yan's hands. It won't be easy to snatch it back by force. If they don't put on a show, they won't be able to get out of it. At most, there will be a small conflict. It's unlikely that they will use all their strength to fight Yan.
Guan Fangyi blinked. "In other words, you've succeeded. You look indifferent on the surface, but you're secretly happy, aren't you? "
Niu Youdao raised his sword and jabbed it on the stone slab. "What's there to be happy about? Maybe it's a sin. Shao Pingbo is indeed a rare talent. I've been paying attention to the changes in the Northern Province over the years. The people are recuperating and gradually have enough food and clothing. In terms of governance of the Northern Province, I'm not even fit to carry his shoes. If I didn't know that he would drag the Northern Province into the flames of war sooner or later, I wouldn't have attacked the Northern Province! The world is in chaos, and the people are in chaos. I can only hope that it will end soon! "
Guan Fangyi didn't fully understand his words. This was due to the gap in their ideals. In her mind, this was how the world should be.
Soon, guests came to visit one after another. The envoys of Song, Zhao, and Wei all came to visit Niu Youdao. They were warm, courteous, and friendly.
Niu Youdao dealt with them one by one. When the envoys invited him to travel around the various countries, he agreed, saying that he would definitely go when he had time.
A horse carriage was waiting outside the courtyard. Bu Xun parted the curtain and smiled at Niu Youdao, "Get in!"
Niu Youdao asked, "Where to?"
Bu Xun replied, "To the palace. His Majesty summons you."
…
In Fufang Garden, Dugu Jing quickly arrived at the secluded bamboo forest. She walked to Yu Cang's side and reported, "According to the news from the Southern and Northern Provinces, the Heavenly Jade Gate is indeed retreating from the Southern Province. The Great Zen Mountain is also retreating from the Northern Province. Both sides are exchanging territories. The Heavenly Jade Gate is really leaving the Southern Province."
