Chapter 890: Inside Story
In the Governor's Mansion of Jiuqu Province, there are specialized personnel responsible for various matters. Important figures like Wen Dong True Monarch naturally receive special treatment. Wen Dong True Monarch accepted enough benefits and is unwilling to offend the influential figures behind the scenes. Naturally, he should turn a blind eye to their actions.
At critical moments, he should even take the initiative to lend a helping hand and establish a good relationship with them.
In comparison, the relationship with Meng Zhang and the generous gifts offered by Meng Zhang seem somewhat insignificant.
If it were just that, Wen Dong True Monarch would have refused Meng Zhang's request for help.
However, this incident involves not only the strong force from beyond the river attacking the local forces of Jiuqu League but also other aspects.
Initially, Zhang Wei Neng, the Grand Marshal, offered very generous conditions to quickly pacify the various cultivation forces of Jiuqu League. Instead of weakening them, it allowed them to retain a semi-independent status.
Such an approach does not align with Dali Dynasty's traditional external conquests or their consistent style.
Within Dali Dynasty, many are dissatisfied with this and believe that Zhang Wei Neng, the Grand Marshal, is too weak and has conceded too much to the major cultivation forces of Jiuqu League.
There are factions within the court of Dali Dynasty, and political struggles are prevalent.
