The established Huainan Group can no longer pose a threat to Shao Xia.

That’s it! That’s it! Let’s clean up the interior and pave the way for our incompetent son.

Li Keyong, as a clan member, didn't respond, so why bother with me?

The two major military leaders, Li Keyong and Yang Xingmi, one in the south and the other in the north, did not have any substantive response to Shao Xia's Jianji incident except verbal abuse.

Their seemingly cowardly response was naturally noticed by other princes.

Starting from the end of July, military leaders successively sent envoys to Luo to express their vassal status.

The first one to take action was Zhao Kuangning, the Jingnan Jiedushi envoy. After sending Yao Jie to offer auspicious blessings, he sent his brother Kuang Ming to Beijing with a large number of treasures, professing the Jingnan states as ministers, and begging to receive the Jingnan Jiedu envoy's yue in the Great Xia Dynasty.

The second person to act was Hangzhou Qian Liu.

He sent his 15-year-old eldest son Qian Chuanguan to board the ship with his belongings, sailed north to Haizhou, landed in Luoyang, and offered his vassal status.

Wang Shenzhi, the envoy of the Mighty Army Jiedushi, sent his brother Wang Shenjun to Beijing to present the official seal of the Tang Dynasty and the Jingjie, intending to seek canonization by the new dynasty.

Shao Shude established a new dynasty and ascended the throne as emperor. It seemed that he did not attract any hatred and there was almost no change in the external environment.

This is the result of his twenty-year campaign, and it comes naturally.
