Chapter 716 Three Letters
On such an occasion, with such an identity, speaking such words is a bit stern.
Apart from this, Yue Yuan had no other choice. He didn't expect that Wanshoumen would refuse to admit it life and death, and asked him to produce evidence. Where could he produce evidence?
It's really hard to say anything if you don't have evidence.
Walking out of the main hall, watching Yue Yuan's back leave, Xihaitang heaved a sigh of relief, tilted his head and said in a low voice: "The other party is probably going to find evidence, is it safe?"
Chao Jing replied in a low voice: "Don't worry, the leader, everything has been arranged, and the over there should know the consequences. Once our people are exposed and we can't step down, we are likely to withdraw support, which is not good for them , the three major factions will do their best to protect our people and will not let our people fall into the hands of the other party."
Xihaitang nodded slightly.
However, the news of Meng Shanming's defeat caused quite a stir in the various countries. Not only people from the three major factions of the Yan Kingdom came to inquire, but all major forces in the various countries expressed their concern and asked if the Wanshou Sect had intervened in the war.
Especially the three major sects of Qi State and Wei State, even issued a warning directly to Wanshoumen, warning Wanshoumen to correct their position, otherwise don't blame them for being rude!
The situation is already very clear. The Yan State wants to subdue the Song State so that they can resist South Korea together. In this way, the situation in the world can be stabilized. It is related to the interests of Qi and Wei. Naturally, the forces of the two countries have to come forward to warn.
But Wanshoumen still said that, we didn't do it, so we won't admit it!
Wanshoumen has considerations from Wanshoumen. After all, they are not ordinary small sects. A sect that has no territory but can win a place in Misty Pavilion naturally has its own unique features. Let the people of other countries suffer. As long as the limelight is over this time, and the situation of losers, losers, and winners stabilizes, which sect needs to fight against Wanshoumen if it is full?
"Did you lose?"
In the small room in Yanjing Imperial Study, Shang Jianxiong turned over on the couch and asked.
It has been a long time since she slept so soundly, but she was awakened by Tian Yu, who informed Meng Shanming of the defeat.
Tian Yu nodded: "It is said that the Wanshou Sect made a move, and half a million horses were lost in the first battle."
Shang Jianxiong sat up slowly, and sat cross-legged on the couch for a long time without saying a word.
Before, he was eager for Meng Shanming's defeat, but now after hearing the news of the defeat, he became uneasy instead.
He couldn't help thinking of a result, once Meng Shanming was completely defeated in the territory of the Song Kingdom, and there was no threat within the Song Kingdom, would it be necessary for Luo Zhao to retreat again? Even if they don't come back immediately and threaten Yanjing again, will they make a comeback after regrouping? Who else can stand in the way of Yan's domestic situation?
"Bring Tong Mo and the others over," Shang Jianxiong said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Tian Yu responded, glanced at the bed, and tried to ask again, "Your Majesty, are you going back to the harem to rest tonight?"
Speaking of the harem, the shadow in Shang Jianxiong's heart is still there, as if he can still hear the crying of those women, and said angrily: "Do your thing!"
"Yes!" Tian Yu bowed and left quickly, not daring to say more, after trying this one, she was still a little afraid to go back to the harem.
When Tong Mo and others arrived, the monarch and his ministers discussed for a while, and decided to go to Meng Xuan together and persuade the three major factions to force Meng Shanming to lead the army back.
Yan State's domestic defense is empty, without the main force to attack everywhere, they really have no idea, Meng Shanming really wants to fold those elites of Yan State into the territory of Song State, what will they do then? Taking advantage of Meng Shanming hitting a wall, he just transferred the troops back.
Meng Xuan also received the news of Meng Shanming's defeat, and his persuasion to the monarch and his ministers was somewhat uncertain, neither agreed nor refused, and only said to discuss it with Gong Lince.
After Gong Lince received Meng Xuan's summons, he also hesitated, because there was nothing he could do with the Wanshoumen for the time being, and Chen Shaotong led an army to chase behind the Yan army, who had been avoiding the battle by avoiding the battle.
If it goes on like this, no matter how long it takes to toss, it seems that it will be difficult to stop Luo Zhao's troops from retreating.
Gong Lince also wanted to retreat to preserve his strength, so he consulted with Meng Shanming.
Unexpectedly, Meng Shanming refused. The reason is that once the Song State retains a considerable force, South Korea will inevitably attack the weaker Yan State. At that time, it is not only South Korea, but Zhao State is very likely. Both the Song Dynasty and the Song Dynasty will be involved to share a piece of the pie. In the face of the Three Kingdoms, Yan will surely die!
Gong Lince didn't know whether the unknown thing would happen, what happened to being chased away by Chen Shaotong in front of him, and asked Meng Shanming what he planned to do?
Meng Shanming didn't say that Niu Youdao had notified him through a secret letter, but only said that he was looking for a fighter.
He insisted on not withdrawing, and Gong Lince was caught in a dilemma.
...
What an old acquaintance!
Zhou Tiezi, who broke into a forest, was stunned, staring blankly at Niu Youdao and Guan Fangyi who came out of the forest, one with a smile on his face, and the other with a signature smile.
Zhou Tiezi really didn't expect that these two would see him again after leaving Wanshoumen, let alone these two who wanted to see him.
He was just a young disciple of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. He was responsible for entertaining the two of them when the spirit beast had an accident. Niu Youdao even proposed to sworn brothers with him.
Suddenly received a letter, asking him to come out to meet, saying that it was an old friend, he wondered who it was, he didn't know many people outside, and he didn't think anyone outside would need to harm him, I really didn't expect it to be like this two people.
"Brother Zhou, why don't you know him?" Niu Youdao approached and asked with a smile.
Zhou Tiezi was a little cautious, but still politely said: "Master, matchmaker."
"Why are you being so polite? Passing this place, I thought I hadn't seen Brother Zhou for a long time, and because of the current situation, I was afraid of being misunderstood, so I concealed my identity and made an appointment. Is Brother Zhou okay now?" Niu Youdao chattered with him.
Hearing that this man under his command was at war with Song State, Zhou Tiezi had concerns in his heart and reserved his words.
Niu Youdao originally wanted to inquire about the situation of Wanshoumen, but seeing him like this, he didn't make things difficult for him, but just checked whether Chao Shenghuai was in Wanshoumen.
Before I heard that Chao Shenghuai was under house arrest in Songjing, he and Matchmaker went to Songjing, only to find the place of house arrest only to find that Chao Shenghuai was no longer there, I don’t know where he went, and it was involved in the confidential matters that Jia Wuqun wanted to do, so he wouldn’t make it public .
Niu Youdao immediately came to a conclusion, before Meng Shanming was not absolutely sure that Wanshoumen had intervened, and Chao Shenghuai was gone, which made him a little more certain.
It seems inappropriate to ask Wanshoumen to help, and then detain the grandson of the elder of Wanshoumen. Niu Youdao suspects that Chao Shenghuai has returned to Wanshoumen.
Now, after confirming with Zhou Tiezi, he really came back.
Seeing that he was a little shy, Niu Youdao stopped talking, took out another letter from his sleeve, and handed it over: "There is an acquaintance in Wanshoumen, I wanted to say hello, but I shouldn't stay here for a long time. Please brother Zhou bring me a letter of greeting."
It's nothing to bring a letter. Zhou Tiezi took the letter, looked at the envelope positively and backwardly, but couldn't see the recipient's name, so he couldn't help asking: "Who are you bringing it to?"
Niu Youdao: "It's the one who just asked, Chao Shenghuai. In order to avoid causing trouble for Chao Shenghuai, don't let others know that I gave it to you, so that Chao Shenghuai will not suspect that you are making trouble for you."
Zhou Tiezi nodded, "Okay, if there is nothing else, I'll go back first."
"No hurry!" Niu Youdao stretched out his hand to ask for it, and took the 10,000 gold coin ticket from Guan Fangyi, "Just be careful, brother Zhou, don't be disgusted."
A young disciple like Zhou Tiezi didn't have the guts to accept money from outsiders, so he repeatedly declined and refused to accept it, so Niu Youdao had no choice but to give up.
...
"Senior Brother Chao, your letter."
Chao Shenghuai was also very sad, his grandfather Chao Jing fined him to sweep the floor for three years in a rage, not only to punish him, but also to show his classmates.
While sweeping the floor, a fellow apprentice came over and handed him a letter.
Chao Shenghuai who received the letter was stunned: "Whose?"
The fellow said: "I don't know, Zhou Tiezi from Qinza's side brought it here, and said that he met someone when he came back from outside."
"Zhou Tiezi?" Chao Shenghuai was stunned for a moment, there were too many disciples of Wanshoumen, how could he remember all of them, especially those who did miscellaneous work, but Zhou Tiezi had the impression that he had served Niu Youdao in the guest house.
Because of this, his heartstrings tightened, he thanked his fellow doormen with a forced smile and continued to sweep the floor.
When no one was around, he slipped to a remote place, quickly took out the letter from his sleeve, opened it, and checked it.
The names of four people were written on the letter, they were the four fellow disciples whom he let Niu Youdao silence.
In addition to the names of the four fellow students, there is another sentence, ask him to meet in a certain place, and you will be responsible for the consequences if you are late.
Needless to say who was looking for him, Chao Shenghuai's face was ugly, his teeth itching with hatred, but he couldn't turn back what he had done.
He didn't know what it would be like for Niu Youdao to find him, but every time he found himself, it was no good.
It was not enough not to meet, so I had to find an excuse to leave Wanshoumen temporarily.
After arriving in a mountain forest at the designated location, he finally saw that hideous smiling face that looked like a devil. Chao Shenghuai rushed to Niu Youdao and angrily scolded him, "You said it was nothing, but I was put under house arrest by the court for so long, you still have the face Looking for me, what exactly are you going to do to let me go? Let me tell you, I won’t do anything for you anymore, if you dare to persecute me again, I will reveal your murder of the envoy Song!”
Niu Youdao smiled and said with a sword: "Brother Chao, please be safe and don't be impatient. I'm not here to ask you to do anything, but to bring you money, just to ask a question by the way, don't be nervous."
Chao Shenghuai was deeply suspicious, "Ask what?"
Niu Youdao: "The Song Army fought against the Yan Army, and suddenly there appeared someone who could control birds, beasts, snakes, insects, rats and ants to help the Song Army fight. Is it someone from the Wanshou Sect?"
Chao Shenghuai said impatiently: "I heard that the monks from the Yan Kingdom came to question the crime, but the sect didn't admit it at all. Even if there was such a thing that the sect didn't admit, it was still a secret. How could it be possible for me to know?"
"That's the case..." Niu Youdao smiled and took out a letter from his sleeve and waved it.
Chao Shenghuai's body froze suddenly, his eyes widened, and he fell straight on the ground, being attacked by someone.
Guan Fangyi, who was standing aside, retracted the protruding finger, and beckoned, Wu's second child came forward.
Niu Youdao handed the letter to Wu's second child, staring at Chao Shenghuai lying on the ground, and said calmly, "The third letter is for Chao Jing!"
