Although the focus of Mo Zhu Mountain is on the vast Bamboo Mountain and Mountain Heng is also enduring in silence, now that even Yu Hou has been conferred to Li Fan, those brainless fellows from Nangong will definitely not be able to stand it. And those noble clans under Mountain Heng's command, I'm afraid they might really waver. After all, do they pledge loyalty to Mountain Heng or to the former general? Surely there will be one or two households who are not faring well and will develop second thoughts, right? Won't this cause contradictions to arise gradually?
The Grand Tutor's overt scheme of 'cannot lure the wolf out without sacrificing the child' is executed quite neatly. Although Li Fan knows that this general's seal is merely a title, it cannot withstand the desperation of people in the world who chase after this very title.
