The dinner went smoothly, and the Emperor didn't want to use force to deal with the affairs of the Northern Territory before.
Civil war is not a glorious thing for every dynasty lord. He would rather put more energy on governing the dynasty and defending against foreign enemies. If he has stronger strength, he will tend to expand the territory rather than civil war. Although it is said that the internal affairs must be settled before fighting against the outside world, the situation in the Northern Territory does not threaten the foundation of the dynasty, and it can be resolved in other ways.
Human Sovereign's headache before was how to convince the hard-line war faction in the dynasty, as well as the old royals who had deep prejudices against the Northern Territory. Now that everything is solved, Qin Ming has made a great contribution, not only eliminating the crisis that had been lurking for thousands of years, but also allowing the royal family to earn enough benefits and resources. Those old guys are now smiling when they talk about Qin Ming's name , The tough tone before also loosened.
There are two old marshals of the 'hawks' among the clan elders accompanying the banquet tonight.
But a peaceful settlement does not mean letting the Northern Territory continue to "barbarously develop". The royal family is looking forward to taking this opportunity to make some ideal changes to the situation in the Northern Territory, so that everyone in the dynasty can see the "surrender" of the Northern Territory , rather than the royal family's 'compromise' on the Northern Territory.
The dynasty has four major outer domains, corresponding to four frontiers.
Among them, the southern border and the eastern border are facing the huge threat of the two dynasties, and the western border is facing the provocation of many kingdoms and the threat of spirit monsters in the vast mountains. The Jinpeng Dynasty had to deploy huge military forces in southern, western, and eastern borders, stationed many powerful warrior groups, and even formed a total of eight mercenary legions, five looting legions, and a large number of killer teams.
Because of the existence of the garrisons in the three major regions, it put a lot of pressure on the sects and organizations in the three major outer regions. They didn't dare to make too much noise. Every time the border wars were urgent, they would continue to send the disciples of the sects to the front for reinforcements.
Over the years, the three major foreign domains in the southeast, east and west have been firmly controlled by the royal family and frontier garrisons, not to mention obedient and obedient, at least obedient. In comparison, the Northern Territory is completely surrounded by the sea, and there are many mountains and rainforests between the long coastline and the hinterland of Northern Xinjiang. As a result, there is almost no threat of war there, and it has a relatively safe living environment. There are thousands of sects and organizations, especially the eight northern sects are the most powerful.
The Eight Sects of the Northern Territory are far away from the Central Territory, and there is no threat from foreign enemies. They are becoming stronger and more rebellious.
In history, it is not that the Jinpeng Dynasty did not take measures against the Northern Territory, but it was deeply troubled by foreign enemies in the other three borders, and did not have enough energy to deal with it comprehensively. Fortunately, the Eight Sects of the Northern Territory knew how to measure themselves. Apart from being disobedient, they had never done anything that endangered the royal family. The five palaces stationed in succession also successfully contained the rising momentum of the eight sects, making the situation in the northern region slightly stable.
But up to now, with the sudden and rapid rise of Thunder Ancient City, the situation of the Eight Sects and Five Kings has broken down, and a brand new and more cohesive organization has proudly formed. With Thunder Ancient City as the main force, nearly thirty saint-level powers have gathered. Just thinking about it makes the royal family worry. Moreover, Qin Ming, Qiu Lin, Pang Zheng, and even the Tie family were all extremely militant factions. The potential and ferocity shown by Qin Ming worried many people even more.
It's time to solve the Northern Territory!
How to make the Northern Territory subordinate
How to minimize the danger of the Northern Territory
How to use the power of the Northern Territory
How to strengthen the control of the Northern Territory
How to extend the prestige of the royal family and the power of the temple to the Northern Territory
These are thorny issues, and the face of the Northern Territory must also be taken into account, so don't overdo it.
After thinking about it, the royal family made a bold and ingenious decision—Phantom Spirit Fatian moved to the territory of the Northern Territory and deployed in the northern region.
The territory of Huanling Fatian is very large, enough to reach one-tenth of the Northern Territory. The so-called northerly area is exactly in the central area of Blood Evil Sect, Earth Spirit Sect, Qingyun Sect, Thunder Ancient City, Hundred Flowers Sect, Xinghe Sect, and Tiandao Sect.
In this way, many problems are perfectly solved, making full use of the power of the Northern Territory, guarding the major entrances of the Phantom Spirit Fatian, resisting the powerful spirit monsters inside, hunting down the remnants of the Cyan Monster Clan, and consuming their vital power. Give them a good opportunity to go in and explore.
There is another important reason. After the news of Phantom Spirit Fatian is announced, it will definitely cause an uproar, arouse the interest of other dynasties, kingdoms and secret realm powerhouses in the mainland, and send a huge team to investigate, whether it is placed in the Southern Region, Western Region, The Eastern Territory, or the Central Territory, may put great pressure on the stability of the dynasty, and may even cause turmoil in the frontier. But it is different in the Northern Territory. Whoever wants to go deep into the Northern Territory has to cross the hinterland of the dynasty. If not, they can only bypass the long, narrow and dangerous ocean, land from the western coast, and then cross the dangerous rainforest.
It is the safest choice to release the Phantom Fatian in the Northern Territory, and the sects of the Northern Territory can help deal with these dangerous explorers from inside and outside the dynasty, keeping the Northern Territory in turmoil and chaos.
Multi-tasking!
When Qiu Lin and the others heard the royal family's proposal, they immediately understood the royal family's purpose. While lamenting the depth of the routine, they thought about the pros and cons of it.
They all know that the royal family will not allow the Northern Territory to continue the "wild ecology". The meaning of the four words of peaceful settlement is no war and allowing you to exist, but it also means deepening control. So they were ready to negotiate terms, but they didn't expect that the royal family would suddenly throw out such a heavy message, which caught them by surprise, and still underestimated the wisdom and courage of the royal family.
Phantom Spirit Fatian is a treasure house, and it can still be developed for a long time. If they can be placed in the Northern Territory, they really wish for it. In the future, they can arrange their disciples to experience in it and seek more opportunities, which will benefit the development of the sect without any harm. But the purpose behind the royal family made them vigilant. Once the phantom spirit Fatian landed according to the location designated by the royal family, it would be tantamount to geographically isolating all the five sects of the Northern Territory. Whoever has a problem, it is difficult to rescue, and the five alliances are useless so far.
Moreover, there are many powerful spirit monsters in Hualing Fatian, and there are also dangerous green monsters who may come out at any time, which means they have a group of ferocious beasts at their doorstep. Furthermore, there will be a large number of powerful people from within the dynasty and from the outside world pouring into the Northern Territory. The degree of chaos can be imagined, and they will also face new challenges and threats.
Huge benefits, huge risks! !
Accept, or reject
After some tactful bargaining, the royal family agreed to move the Phantom Spirit Fatian to the direction of Tiandaozong and the Three Kings' Mansion, that is, Tiandaozong and the Three Kings Mansion are responsible for guarding the southern half of the Phantom Spirit Fatian, and the Northern Territory Five Sects and Leiting Ancient Town guard the north. On the other hand, it is more acceptable geographically and less stressful.
As a condition of compromise, the royal family will continue to retain the three major palaces stationed in the Northern Territory, and additionally install a branch church, and build a new giant city directly under the royal family. Of course, the purpose is to develop the Phantom Spirit Fatian, to search for the treasure inside for a long time, and at the same time be responsible for deterring and monitoring the five sects of the Northern Territory.
Both parties were happy and signed an agreement.
The royal family is very satisfied, and the Northern Territory can also accept it.
Finally, when the dinner was about to end, under the instruction of the emperor, an elder of the royal family finally spoke out the question that worried Qin Ming: "Qin Ming's adventure awakened Feng Tianxie's dragon pillar, courage, courage, and wisdom. You are truly unparalleled in the world, solving the threat that has been lurking for thousands of years for the dynasty, and also bringing high-quality resources to the royal family. Although you don't want to make your heroic deeds public, the royal family must not forget your contribution."
Some compliments made Qin Ming's heart lift. "You have won the prize, you should."
The clan elder smiled: "Qin Ming is eighteen this year? Haven't married yet?"
Qin Ming blocked it decisively: "It's done!"
"Oh?" The clan elder was startled, and the words that were about to reach his mouth got stuck. Done? When was it made
The emperor's majestic expression froze slightly, and the elders of the other royal families all looked up at Qin Ming.
The atmosphere in the hall became weird. Are you being stupid or doing it on purpose? Let me ask you to start a family. The next step is to give a marriage. This is a gift from the royal family. What do you mean by 'it's done'? Refused to marry? !
