In two days, the news that a Shangyang Palace priest was killed in Caoshu City spread far and wide. This kind of thing itself is unreasonable.
Under normal circumstances, if the priest died unexpectedly, the first thing people here in Dongbo would do is to block the news.
At least we can't let the news spread so fast, otherwise, the Dongbo people won't have time to do anything.
So, there must be a driving force behind this.
The more I analyze it, the more it seems like a conspiracy. The priest who came to Dongbo is the one who deserves to die here.
After getting the news, Lin Ye's first reaction was that he didn't have as much time as he thought before.
The news of the death of a ritual priest could reach the remote Xingyue Lake so quickly, and at the same time, the news could reach the Dayu border.
In less than a day, even Beiye King Tuoba Lie will be able to get the news.
Now, Lin Ye also understood why he wanted to meet Tuoba Lie in Junye City for the sake of Emperor Jade.
Emperor Yu left Geling to personally plan the arrangements. If he just got rid of Xie Yelan and just made up for the so-called justice of the case back then, it would not be worth his while.
Although he has not arrived in Northern Xinjiang, he is here to arrange military affairs in Northern Xinjiang.
As soon as the news reaches Yunzhou, Tuoba Lie, who has been prepared for a long time, will immediately send his army northward.
The Dongbo frontier army would never dare to stop the Beiye army, even if they were given ten courages to do so.
In just three days, Tuoba Lie will be able to completely control Dongbo's southern border. In just seven days, the Beiye Army will be able to fly their flags all the way from southern Xinjiang to Caoshu City.
In just ten days, the vast winter territory from Caoshu City to the south will be completely taken over by the Kitano Army.
As the main country, Dayu will certainly not openly say that this area belongs to Dayu's territory.
Needless to say, this area belongs to Dayu, and the Kitano Army will divide its troops to station here for a long time.
If Emperor Jade wants to defeat Dongbo, it is not just as simple as changing the king of Dongbo. Changing the king is just an introduction.
Lin Ye had to think about it now. Lord Dongbo had the courage to collude with Xie Yelan to kill Emperor Yu. Could it be that Emperor Yu arranged for someone to deliberately seduce him?
After more than ten years of cultivation without war, Dongbo's national strength has been greatly restored.
Over the years, with Dayu's support, the number of Dongbo's standing troops has more than doubled compared to more than ten years ago.
Moreover, there has been no war for more than ten years, and the relationship between Loufan and Dongbo people is not as hostile as before.
After all, they have the same origin. Relatively speaking, beauties are outsiders.
Lin Ye thought that perhaps the main goal of Emperor Yu's grand plan from the beginning was to repair Dongbo.
His mind lit up and he remembered some other things, which confirmed his guess.
The last time he came to Dongbo to pick up Yu Yucheng, he had a fight with the people at Lou Fan's mirror.
At that time, Lin Ye thought that Lou Fan was in collusion with Dongbo Right Prime Minister Tai Tingyan, and was let in by Tai Tingyan.
Recalling it at this time, I think of the series of methods used by Emperor Jade...
Lin Ye suddenly realized.
Because Dayu's demands from Dongbo have increased year by year over the years, the king of Dongbo was dissatisfied.
More than ten years have passed since the war, and the Dongbo and Loufan people are also looking for ways to ease their relations.
The Dongbo people do this in order to quietly accumulate strength to fight against Dayu, so that they can break free from Dayu's shackles at any time when necessary.
The Loufan people did this in order to divide the alliance between Dongbo and Dayu.
If analyzed in this way, the resentment of the Dongbo people arose because Emperor Yu increased the amount of materials collected from Dongbo year by year.
But for Dayu, this is of course also a necessary means.
With the help of Dayu, Dongbo's national strength quickly recovered, and the size of his army became larger and larger. If Dayu did not increase his levy, Dongbo's ally would gradually become a threat to Dayu's bedside.
Lin Ye sat by the lake, frowning

Lock.
There were sparkling waves and beautiful scenery in front of him. It seemed that he was looking at such beautiful scenery, but in fact there was nothing in his eyes.
Emperor Yu just threw out a bait casually, Xie Yelan fell for it, and so did Lord Dongbo.
It was precisely because King Dongbo was so bold that Emperor Yu could only make up his mind to give Dongbo a good beating.
Replace your monarch and cut off part of your territory. If Dongbo knows the pain and fear and becomes well-behaved again, then Emperor Jade will stop there.
If the people of Dongbo don’t know pain or fear, the Beiye Army will attack more than just the southern territory of Dongbo.
Just exterminate the Yuyu family, pick someone up casually, and change the name of Dongbo's country.
Does it matter whether it is a winter mooring or a western mooring, a southern mooring or a northern mooring?
Does it matter whether the Yuyu family is the royal family, the Golden Yu family, the Silver Yu family, or the Iron Yu family?
None, as long as this is still Dayu's northern barrier, it doesn't matter what it is.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye finally figured out the true intention of Emperor Yu.
The layout of Emperor Jade is not about killing two birds with one stone, but killing two birds with one stone. It does not show the talent and strategy of Emperor Jade at all.
The layout of Emperor Jade is, at the very least, killing four birds with one stone.
First, it is to find justice for the annihilation of Liu Jigong's cowardly army.
Second, it was to wipe out all the gangsters of Prince Ye and his son, and also clean up the remnants of the powerful officials.
Third, replace the king of Dongbo and beat Dongbo up and down.
Fourth, complete the important task of garrisoning the army in Dongbo. In this way, no matter who becomes the king of Dongbo in the future, they will not dare to have any illegal thoughts.
Lin Ye frowned slightly.
No, not killing four birds with one stone, but five birds with one stone.
Because the person who died was a priest of Shangyang Palace, can you say that your status is not noble? Can you say that your status is not important?
Emperor Jade wanted to use such a thing to test Shangyang Palace's bottom line.
When the emperor of Dayu needs people from Shangyang Palace to make some sacrifices, Shangyang Palace will be willing or unwilling.
Lin Ye didn't know that the dead priest was the priest of Tianshui Cliff, nor did he know that this person was supposed to be Chen Weiwei.
If he knew, he would have more respect for Emperor Jade's planning.
Because Chen Weiwei's identity is so suitable. If Chen Weiwei died in Dongbo, even Shangyang Palace would not feel it was a loss, let alone a humiliation.
Moreover, it can also be shown to Emperor Jade that Shangyang Palace is still under the imperial power.
The art of the emperor.
At this moment, Lin Ye only had these four words in his heart.
After figuring it all out, Lin Ye looked at Yu Yu Chengchang, who had been standing not far away waiting for him.
"Pack your things. I will take you to the capital as soon as possible. If you arrive late, you may not get anything."
When Yu Yucheng heard this in a hurry, he didn't even ask why, and nodded directly: "I'll go now."
Not long after, Lin Ye selected 300 elite contract soldiers and borrowed Dongbo's military uniforms from Fu Liujian, the general of Dongbo's border army.
Fu Liujian asked someone to prepare things for Lin Ye, and then said to Lin Ye: "General Lin, I have to go with you."
Lin Ye's heart moved.
He didn't ask why, because there was no need.
Fu Liujian has already reached this point. Even if he doesn't admit that he helped Yu Yu Cheng Chong in the future, will anyone believe it?
To be an ambiguous person, it is better to make a choice directly at this moment.
A big bet was made, and it was done. His choice at this time was a great achievement. In the future, Yu Yucheng would be able to secure his position as king. Could it be that he would still be a small frontier general?
Lin Ye nodded: "Okay, but you have to promise me one thing."
Fu Liujian said: "Just say it."

He said: "You go to Aijinselang of the Huole tribe now and ask him for 10,000 cavalry, at least 10,000."
Fu Liujian thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, he probably won't refuse."
Lin Ye said: "I have sent people back before, and now I will send people to chase the team back. The cavalry and infantry total more than 7,000, and they will be handed over to you."
Fu Liujian was surprised this time.
Lin Ye continued: "My deputy general Feng Xiu is also following you. No matter what happens, you can discuss it with him. Can you do it?"
Fu Liujian nodded: "Okay."
Lin Ye said: "You and Feng Xiu, lead the troops all the way north, and try not to take the main road to cross the big city. If you don't receive news from me, you can't act rashly."
Fu Liujian responded.
Lin Ye said: "If the big thing that the prince wants to do in the capital goes well this time, you will not be needed. If it doesn't go well, this battle will be extremely dangerous. You'd better think clearly."
Fu Liujian thought for a longer time this time, and Lin Ye was not in a hurry, just waiting.
About a moment later, Fu Liujian said: "I have roughly calculated that even if there is a fight, the chance of victory is only 20% with the troops in our hands, but as long as we have it, I can do it."
Lin Ye said: "Then let's take the first step."
After the explanation was clear, Lin Ye and Yu Yucheng set off in a hurry with a team of three hundred people.
Compared to the complicated situation in Dongbo and the hundreds of thousands of troops that the King of Dongbo could command, this team of three hundred people seemed to have no meaning at all.
However, some things are more important when going against the current.
At the same time, Caoshu City.
Zisang Changyu stared at Ning Shu with a look of killing intent in his eyes.
The Zisang family is a big family in Dongbo, and can even be called the largest family in Dongbo.
It is precisely because of the country of Dongbo that the Zisang family can have such a high status and make such huge profits.
"Have you been bribed by a beauty?"
Zisang Changyu asked.
Ning Shu smiled: "If there is only one person in the world who will not be bribed by money, then it can only be me."
Although he is called the richest man in Dongbo, in fact, he is definitely not the richest one, but he is definitely the one who cares about money the least.
In the past ten years, he has almost exhausted his family wealth twice. There is probably no one other than him who can do such a thing.
Zisang Changyu said: "The king treats you well."
Ning Shu: "Can you see that tomorrow there will be corpses everywhere and rivers of blood?"
Zisang Changyu said: "No matter how many years have passed, Dongbo people will still hate you when you are mentioned, calling you a traitor and a sinner."
Ning Shu: "If I succeed, there will be no blood of innocent people on the land of Dongbo, and people like you can continue to be your son-in-law."
Zisang grows fish: "Dongbo will lose a large territory."
Ning Shu: "But not many people will die."
Zisang Changyu said: "From now on, I will no longer have dignity when I am in front of a beautiful woman."
Ning Shu: "Is it available now?"
He walked to the door and looked at the sky outside: "If I were you, what I should be thinking about now is whether fewer people will die and more dignity will be gained if we welcome the prince to the throne in the shortest possible time."
He turned back to look at Zisang Changyu: "If the Dayu border army escorts the prince back, can your Zisang family still be in charge of the army?"
Zisang Changyu was silent for a moment, then turned around and strode away.
After Ning Shu waited for Zisang Changyu to leave, he turned and walked towards the lobby, where a coffin was parked.
He knelt down beside the coffin and put his hand on it.
"It is said that a woman's mouth can tell the difference between right and wrong, but you see... a man's mouth can not only tell the difference between right and wrong, but also the country."
Ning Shu glanced at the coffin.
Not the one next to me.
Not far away, there was an empty coffin.
