Chapter 314: Mist in Chaoge, Wen Zhong's Determination

At the same time.

Chaoge.

Wen Zhong received the letter sent by Gu Xiu.

Reading the content, his brows furrowed tightly.

"Jiang Ziya has already submitted to Xiqi and is planning to reorganize the three armies to crusade against Chong Houhu?"

Ever since Jiang Ziya suddenly disappeared, Wen Zhong had been inquiring about his whereabouts, but he didn't expect him to run to Xiqi.

He couldn't help but curse.

"That old wretch Jiang Ziya, I treated you with courtesy and recommended you to the King, but I didn't expect you to harbor evil intentions. If I had known this, I would have whipped you to death in the first place."

After cursing, Wen Zhong calmed down slightly, his expression serious. Ever since he was suppressing the rebellion in the North Sea, he had been suspicious because he found that it was all caused by a group of demons.

It wasn't until Gu Xiu told him that all this was related to the Chan Sect and that the purpose was to push forward the Investiture of the Gods that he understood.

"Junior Brother Gu Xiu once warned me that if I insisted on staying in Yin Shang, I should not ask the Jie Sect for help when facing Chan Sect disciples in the future, otherwise he would not let me off. He didn't want to involve the Jie Sect in this dispute because of me."

"The Sect Master summoned the Jie Sect disciples who were outside back twice, but I didn't go back. Currently, I have been expelled from the Jie Sect."

"Junior Brother Gu even wrote a letter specifically to inform me. I, Wen Zhong, will remember this kindness."

Knowing that Yin Shang was currently at a critical juncture of life and death, Wen Zhong didn't dare to be negligent.

He looked at what Gu Xiu asked him to do in the letter and pondered.

"Junior Brother asked me to spread the word in various places that Ji Chang is colluding with Chan Sect demons to rebel. Is he trying to make Ji Chang have no justification for his crusade and make the name of a rebel stick?"

"Before, the Holy Mother sent an envoy to clear the King's name, and the King hasn't done anything out of line yet. It's not that easy for the Chan Sect to support Ji Chang and win the hearts of the people."

"But the vassals in various places have been incited to rebel one after another, causing chaos in the Chengtang society and affecting the national fortune. If it is not solved, Chengtang will be in danger."

Without thinking further, Wen Zhong immediately called someone to send people to various places to spread the word that Ji Chang was colluding with Chan Sect demons to rebel.

And he sent a letter to Chong Houhu, informing him that Ji Chang was rebelling and raising troops to attack him, so that Chong Houhu could be prepared.

After giving the instructions, the worry on Wen Zhong's face did not decrease at all.

He was only one person and could not contend with the Chan Sect behind Xiqi.

After a long silence, Wen Zhong sighed.

"The late King was kind to me and entrusted me with the orphan. How can I let him down?"

"I, Wen Zhong, will use my last breath to protect the society of Chengtang."

"But I must tell the King about Ji Chang's rebellion."

Thinking of this, Wen Zhong left the Grand Preceptor's Mansion and rode the Ink Qilin toward the Imperial Palace.

Di Xin was in the bedroom with Su Daji, being affectionate and tender. Under the flickering candlelight, their ambiguous figures were reflected.

Hearing that Wen Zhong was requesting an audience outside, it disturbed his mood a bit.

He didn't understand why Wen Zhong suddenly entered the palace to request an audience when it was almost evening.

But Wen Zhong held the King-Beating Whip, and Di Xin was a bit afraid, so he still summoned Wen Zhong in.

Wen Zhong walked into the hall and saw Di Xin and Daji together, frowning slightly.

Su Daji was too enchanting, her appearance bewitching people's hearts. He had always been worried that Di Xin would neglect state affairs because of his indulgence in female beauty.

"Subject Wen Zhong, pays respects to Your Majesty." Wen Zhong knelt on one knee.

Di Xin raised his hand and said: "Grand Preceptor, please rise quickly."

After Wen Zhong got up, Di Xin asked: "Grand Preceptor, you suddenly entered the palace late at night, is there any urgent matter?"

Wen Zhong's expression was serious, and he bowed and said: "Your Majesty, this subject has an urgent matter to report. Just now, this subject received a secret report that the Marquis of the West, Ji Chang, has already rebelled and is colluding with Chan Sect demons, wanting to cause chaos in my Chengtang. Currently, he is organizing the three armies and intends to go to Chong City to crusade against the Marquis of the North, Chong Houhu."

"Ji Chang rebelled?" Di Xin frowned slightly. He could almost hear which vassal had rebelled every day, and he was almost tired of hearing it.

"Yes, Your Majesty. This news was told by my fellow disciple, and there will be no mistake. Your Majesty has also seen him before."

Di Xin immediately thought of Gu Xiu.

"Since it was told by the Immortal Gu Xiu, a fellow disciple of the Grand Preceptor, then there will be no mistake. It's just that Ji Chang has always shown loyalty in front of me; I didn't expect him to rebel."

Su Daji on the side heard the news about Gu Xiu, and her expression changed slightly.

Thinking about it, since it was news passed by Gu Xiu, she had to help, so that she could claim credit in front of Gu Xiu in the future and let Gu Xiu say a few good words in front of Nüwa.

Her beautiful face carried a charming smile, and a pair of beautiful eyes were as moving as autumn water.

She said in a charming voice.

"Your Majesty, this concubine heard that Ji Chang has always had the name of a sage and is loved by the people in Xiqi. I thought he was a loyal person, but I didn't expect him to have the heart of a wolf. If Xiqi's power is allowed to grow, I am afraid there will be endless trouble. We must send troops to suppress it in time."

Di Xin nodded: "What the beloved concubine says is right."

Then, he looked at Wen Zhong.

"Grand Preceptor, in your opinion, who should be sent to lead the troops to suppress Ji Chang?"

This question stumped Wen Zhong. Xiqi had the help of the Chan Sect; sending other ordinary generals would not be able to deal with it at all. ===== CHAPTER 315 =====
