"Pre-emptive strike! Divert trouble to the east!"
This was Lin Bai's solution to Emperor Chu. Emperor Chu also thought a little after hearing this.
If you want to fight the outside, you must first make peace with the inside.
This is a very simple truth. The Chu State is a dynasty power, so it must be well versed in this.
Now within the Chu State, because Emperor Chu suddenly announced his re-election, he continued to serve as Emperor of Chu.
Many of the internal worries within the Chu State were eliminated. For example, the Liang Prince's Mansion, which was about to make a move, suddenly became quiet.
The saint son and ancestor of the top sect were kidnapped, and the Jiuyou Demon Palace deliberately spread the news, causing great shock in the eastern region of the demon world.
The leader of the sect, who had lost his son and ancestor, had already set off towards the Chu Kingdom.
They came to Chu State, firstly, to determine the source of the news, secondly, to find the Holy Son and Ancestor, and thirdly, to hold Emperor Chu accountable.
These saint sons and ancestors all came to Chu State to celebrate the birthday of Emperor Chu. If something happened within the territory of Chu State, Chu State would not be able to escape from the relationship.
Especially if something happened in the mountains and forests outside the imperial capital, right under the nose of Emperor Chu, Emperor Chu would definitely be responsible for it.
There is a more important point... If the saints and ancestors of a sect are attacked, it may be because the enemy is seeking revenge, but all the saints and ancestors of the top sects in the Eastern Demon Realm are attacked.
This is definitely not seeking revenge, but a premeditated conspiracy.
If something happened in the imperial capital, they would naturally ask Emperor Chu for an explanation.
With the strength of the Chu State, even if all the leaders of these top sects are present, the Chu State can easily handle it.
But I am afraid that things will continue to get out of control. When the time comes, these top sect leaders gathered in the imperial capital will inevitably become furious, and the Chu State will inevitably turn against them.
For the current plan, the best way is to divert the disaster eastward.
Before all the sect leaders who had lost their sons and ancestors arrived in the imperial capital, the Chu State issued an official document stating that the truth of the matter had been found out and that it was Beiyu who had done it.
Moreover, the Chu State also wanted to make a show of decisive battle with the Northern Territory and would not give up until the Holy Son was rescued.
This approach has three benefits.
First, it can divert trouble from the east.
The sect that has lost its Son and Ancestor will definitely be extremely angry when they come to the Imperial Capital of Chu State, and they will point all their fingers at Emperor Chu.
But now that Emperor Chu revealed that it was the warriors from the Northern Territory who had done it, then these sect leaders would direct their anger at the Northern Territory.
This will temporarily eliminate their hostility towards Chu.
Second, after distributing this news, the top sects in the entire Eastern Region of the Demon Realm will know that the Holy Son and the Ancestor are in the hands of the Northern Region warriors, and they will work together with their enemies to deal with the Northern Region.
This is conducive to the unity of the warriors in the Eastern Region.
Third, by doing this, the Chu State can greatly gain the hearts and minds of the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm.
Let all the warriors in the Eastern Region see that the Chu State is a responsible and responsible force.
Lin Bai did not tell Emperor Chu about the many benefits of this plan, because Emperor Chu and the think tanks behind him were extremely smart people, and they could understand the benefits without Lin Bai saying much.
After he told the plan, Emperor Chu did not respond for a long time, apparently discussing countermeasures with the think tank.
After a while.
Emperor Chu asked: "What if it is announced in the name of the Chu State that this matter was done by warriors from the Northern Territory, but we have no evidence?"
Lin Bai chuckled and asked, "Don't we have any evidence?"
Emperor Chu frowned and asked, "Do we have evidence?"
Lin Bai calmly replied again: "As long as His Majesty the Emperor of Chu wants evidence, the Zhaoxing Division will naturally provide you with all the evidence you want."
Emperor Chu understood what Lin Bai said.
Jiuyou Demon Palace did this very cleanly, without leaving any evidence.
Even if the Zhaoxing Division and the Forbidden Army jointly investigated, it was still in vain.
But...the real evidence can’t be found, so why can’t the false evidence still be found?
As long as Emperor Chu gave Zhaoxingsi a wink, Zhaoxingsi could fabricate tens of thousands of evidences to point the finger of blame at the Northern Territory.
Emperor Chu hesitated and asked: "It is not difficult to obtain evidence, but the problem is...if this matter was not done by the Northern Territory? Then this move of the Chu State is undoubtedly provoking a conflict between the Eastern Territory and the Northern Territory. war!"
Lin Bai said: "Your Majesty, you and I both understand that no one except the Northern Territory dares to be so bold."
"Even if the truth of the matter is finally found out and it was not done by Beiyu, will there be any great harm to Chu State?"
Emperor Chu thought carefully about Lin Bai's words and felt that they made sense.
After some discussion within the think tank, they all believed that Lin Bai's plan was feasible.
"hehe."
"This time you have made another great contribution."
Emperor Chu had already agreed to Lin Bai's plan, and a smile finally appeared on his long-dull face: "I should have given you some rewards, but you are already a marquis. If you add more rewards, you should be crowned king."
"But you don't have great achievements. It's too difficult to be crowned king with a different surname."
"Let's do this..." Emperor Chu thought about it seriously and said to Lin Bai: "After you get married to the princess, I will give you the title of king!"
Marrying the princess?
This remark was full of sarcasm. Emperor Chu only said that he was getting married to the princess, but he did not say that he was getting married to that princess?
Is it Princess Chu Tinghan of Prince Liang’s Mansion? Or Princess Shenxian of Prince Hong’s Mansion?
Lin Bai did not dwell too much on this matter, but changed the topic and said, "In addition to dealing with the sect leaders who came to raise an army to question the culprits, Your Majesty should also pay more attention to the five families and seven sects of Chu State."
Emperor Chu frowned: "What do you mean by this?"
Lin Bai said: "I heard that among the five and seven sects of Chu State, some sects believe that the Eastern Region will be in chaos. They have secretly accumulated strength and plan to take advantage of the chaos to gain some benefits."
"Your Majesty should know that dealing with foreign enemies is very simple. All you need to do is send troops to garrison the borders."
"When foreign enemies invade, there will be military kings and generals who will lead the troops to fight."
"But the only troublesome thing is... the problems hidden within the territory, and those forces that are powerful enough to challenge the Chu State in the chaos."
Lin Bai's words were cryptic and he did not name the force.
What kind of people the Emperor Chu and the think tank behind him were, they naturally understood what Lin Bai was saying.
But he did not rush to answer Lin Bai's words. Instead, he smiled and said, "Yes, I remember that when the Jiuyou Demon Palace was destroyed a hundred thousand years ago, your ancestors of the Tianshui Sect thought of dividing the world with the royal family of the Chu Kingdom."
"It's really difficult to deal with people who hide around you."
Emperor Chu looked at Lin Bai meaningfully.
Lin Bai didn't make any excuses. He also knew a little bit about the history of Tianshui Sect.
The main reason why Tianshui Sect has been in decline for many years is because one hundred thousand years ago, when Tianshui Sect destroyed Jiuyou Demon Palace, it had the idea of dividing the world with Chu State.
Later, the Chu State reacted and quickly suppressed the Tianshui Sect.
Some of the ancestors and strong men of the Tianshui Sect died in the battle to destroy the Jiuyou Demon Palace, and some died in the hands of the Chu Dynasty.
A large number of strong men died, and the Tianshui Sect's strength plummeted. Then the Chu State secretly supported the rise of the Tiandi Sect and began to suppress the Tianshui Sect for tens of thousands of years, which led to the Tianshui Sect's decline to what it is today.
