I don’t know if Diao Chan was deliberately seeking revenge, but on the way back, Yu Xian felt heart palpitations from time to time.
His body began to weaken almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Yu Xian tried his best to mobilize his inner breath and continuously draw the breath of life from the mysterious wooden box.
This power is tenacious, but far less domineering than the curse.
Yu Xian resisted and retreated.
When the body can no longer hold on any longer, the only option is to find a temporary place to rest.
However, this constant feeling of weakness and exhaustion filled Yu Xian with a sense of solidity.
Compared to the corpse-killing substitute method, which requires cutting out a corpse from the body, this price is nothing.
He could clearly feel that the power lingering in his muscles and bones like maggots attached to his bones was slowly fading, replaced by a vitality full of vitality.
This vitality carries the freshness of grass and trees, and the fragrance of wild flowers and fruits.
The power of this mysterious wooden box is indeed no less powerful than Leizu's Lung.
Yu Xian endured the pain and exhaustion and finally arrived at the entrance of Ziwu Valley before the false edict expired.
The person in charge of the lookout today is the troublemaker Chang Le.
She has been marching hard since she left Sichuan, and has never seen the prosperity of the Central Plains. These days, she has been hiding in the Ziwu Valley like a shrunken mouse.
After finally seeing Yu Xian come back from exploring the road, Chang Le was so excited that he kept waving from a distance.
Yu Xian took a closer look and was very happy to see it.
My mood suddenly wasn't so beautiful.
He had finally made preparations, but he didn't want anything to go wrong in the end.
Yu Xian thought briefly.
Again.
So amidst Chang Le's eager anticipation, Yu Xian's figure disappeared far away.
Chang Le was confused, "???"
When Yu Xian finally took a detour and found Bashan Ghost King and his companions, Zhang Song hurriedly came up to him and asked, "Did the Imperial Master gain anything from this trip?"
Yu Xian already had something to say in his mind.
He immediately looked at everyone and said solemnly, "Yes. Fortunately, I went out to investigate in advance. The situation in Guanzhong has indeed changed dramatically these days."
After finishing speaking, Yu Xian briefly explained the whole story of the Chang'an Rebellion.
Everyone was surprised when they heard this. After a while, Zhang Song finally realized what he said.
"In this case, won't we no longer have to go to Chang'an to save people?"
"No need to go to Chang'an?"
Everyone looked at each other in shock after hearing this.
Although I am happy, I am also a little disappointed.
Spending so much effort crossing the Shu Road turned out to be in vain.
While everyone was discussing, Zhang Song suddenly noticed that Yu Xian, who had brought the news, looked serious and said nothing.
He was a very thoughtful person, so he quickly asked Yu Xian, "Master, is it possible that what I said is wrong?"
Yu Xian was silent for a while and then said, "If we talk about this matter alone, you are right. But on the way here, I intercepted this by chance..."
With that said, Yu Xian took out a pair of silk from his sleeves.
Zhang Song took a closer look and saw that the silk was slightly shiny and colorful.
He was taken aback and said in disbelief, "Look at this precious light, could it be an imperial edict in the hands of the Imperial Master?"
Yu Xian said in a deep voice, "That's right. This edict happened to be sent to Yizhou, and I intercepted it on the way. The content above... you will know after you see it for yourself."
With that said, Yu Xian handed the imperial edict to Zhang Song.
Zhang Song's eyes were full of surprise and uncertainty, and he took it carefully.
He has the power of one eye and ten movements. His face changed drastically at a glance, "How is that possible?!"
Yu Xian looked at Zhang Song's face and asked deliberately, "Is this imperial edict false?"
Zhang Song also had an idea after hearing this. He carefully looked at the imperial edict in his hand, and then he lost all luck and said with an ugly face, "The Imperial Master may not know that the appointment and dismissal of two thousand senior officials of the imperial court must be written in the handwriting of the Third Duke.
The emperor uses the seal. This edict has five colors of precious light flowing around it. It really cannot be more authentic."
Yu Xian felt relieved after hearing this.
The words on the imperial edict will soon disappear, so having Zhang Song check it in advance will save one hidden danger.
Yu Xian looked at the Ghost King of Bashan.
Bashan Ghost King immediately understood that this must be Yu Xian’s fault.
Even though he was confused, it didn't stop him from helping Yu Xian.
Bashan Ghost King coughed lightly and asked proactively, "What does this decree say? Is there something unexpected?"
Zhang Song panicked and subconsciously wanted to hide the imperial edict in his sleeve, but he suddenly realized how could such a thing be hidden.
He hesitated for a while and then had to tell the truth, "The imperial court appreciates the merit and plans to appoint Liu Zhoumu as Sikong."
Bashan Ghost King was a little confused after hearing this.
Liu Yan served as the third official, which was undoubtedly a high promotion. How could Zhang Song be like this?
Then, Zhang Song said dryly, "The imperial court, the imperial court also plans to appoint Jia Long as the governor of the state, and Ren Qi, the governor of Qianwei, as the governor of the state."
As soon as Zhang Song said this, even the people of the Wugui Sect, who were not very sensitive to politics, were in an uproar.
Who doesn’t know that the main enemies of the Yizhou Mufu are the two traitors Ren Qi and Jia Long!
Especially since these two rebelled, most of the military operations of the Yizhou Mufu have been directly targeted at them.
It is no exaggeration to say that those who were deeply involved in the Yizhou civil strife were these people present and the forces behind them!
——The Yizhou native faction who turned to the Yizhou Mufu, the Qingyi Qiang, the main fighting force of the Yizhou Mufu, the Wugui Sect who came to help because of Gui Ji's request, and the Taoist priests from the Heming Taoist Palace!
But if these two people become state pastors and state governors...
He Xuan never had any scruples. He asked Zhang Song with all his face, "Liu Yan ran away to enjoy the glory and wealth. What should we do?"
Zhang Song was also in a state of confusion at this moment.
The imperial court turned its hands into clouds and turned into rain, and the former enemy of life and death suddenly became its immediate boss.
Those outsiders will most likely have to hide from the world, but the local faction and the Qingyi Qiang who are attached to Liu Yan will definitely be purged in blood.
Zhang Songzheng was in a state of confusion when he saw Yu Xian calmly spreading his hands to him.
Zhang Song hesitated and handed over the imperial edict in his hand.
Yu Xian took it and held it in his hand.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, he used his hands to smash the silk into pieces.
Zhang Song was a very smart person, and when he saw how bold Yu Xian was, he suddenly became enlightened.
Yu Xian glanced at the dumbfounded crowd and said calmly, "We can just ignore the imperial decree."
Zhang Song felt more and more decisive that Yu Xian was decisive, and he reminded carefully, "Although the words of the Imperial Master are good, what should I do if the imperial court has not responded for a long time and the decree is made known to the world?"
At that time, if Liu Yan did not comply, he would have no choice but to rebel.
Would Liu Yan be willing to give up his high position and become a rebel because of the life and death of his subordinates?
Zhang Song is not sure at all.
Yu Xian heard what he wanted. He looked at Zhang Song and said seriously, "Well, I have thought about this too. If we go and defeat the Chang'an court, they will not be able to issue such an imperial edict. What do you think?"
