However, on second thought, Ji Chang was famous for his benevolence and righteousness. Perhaps this path was really feasible!
"There's no time to lose. The two of us will hurry to Xi Qi!”
Fei Zhong and You Hun hit it off and quickly rushed to Xi Qi.
……
A few days later, under Xi Qi City…
Fei Zhongyou looked at the two words Xi Qi written on the city wall, and the two couldn't help but tear up.
Finally!
They had arrived at Xi Qi!
His life was saved!
Fei Zhong and the other man tidied up their sorry appearance from rushing, then entered Xi Qi valiantly.
After the two of them entered the city, they headed straight for Marquis of the West's residence.
Ji Chang, who was discussing political affairs with his aides in the manor, heard a servant report.
"Reporting to Lord Marquis, the two people outside who call themselves Fei Zhong and You Hun request an audience.”
Ji Chang couldn't believe what he just heard.
"Who are you talking about?"
The servant saw Lord Marquis's expression and hurriedly repeated,"Fei Zhong is really stupid."
Ji Chang frowned. These two had always been Emperor Xin's dogs, and they were infamous in Great Shang.
When the people of Great Shang heard the names of these two people, they would spit on the ground in disgust.
Ji Chang originally wanted to chase these two people out of Xi Qi, but he was afraid of provoking some trouble, so he could only send people to invite these two people to stay in the guest house for the time being and send people to watch them closely.
He didn't want these two to go out and harm Xi Qi!
"What are these two scums doing here?”Ji Chang frowned. After divining, he was shocked.
"I see, I see!”Looking at the divination, Ji Chang said repeatedly, and could not help but feel even more melancholic.
"Your Majesty, Fei Zhong is very muddle-headed. He has already run to Xi Qi.”Yu Xin appeared and said to He Feng.
Ever since Daji confessed, Yu Xin naturally confessed to He Feng as well. He Feng let Yuxin monitor Fei Zhong especially muddy.
"I finally took the bait." He Feng said with a faint smile.
If he didn't capture Fei Zhong, they would still be useful. The two of them had no choice but to join Xi Qi.
Once he went to Xiqi, He Feng would have a reason to call Ji Chang back to Zhaoge City.
He immediately summoned Ji Chang, Marquis of the West, to personally escort Fei Zhong and You Hun back to Chaoge.
He summoned a messenger eagle and sent He Feng's edict to Xi Qi.
The next day.
After Ji Chang received He Feng's imperial edict, he immediately frowned. On the same day, he gathered his sons and aides to ask for their opinions.
The second son, Ji Fa, said angrily," This must be Emperor Xin's trick. Everyone in the Shang Dynasty knows that Fei Zhongyou is Emperor Xin's dog."”
"Father, you can't go to Chaoge! If you want to go, let your son go." Bo Yikao dissuaded Ji Chang and was willing to let him go.
The rest of the people also tried to persuade Ji Chang,
"Lord Marquis, it's hard to tell if we'll survive this trip to Zhaoge!”
"That's right! This Di Xin was cruel and heartless, who knew what he was thinking!”
Ji Chang raised his hand to stop the discussion and said,""I know what everyone is worried about! However, Di Xin is still the Human King and I am the Marquis. How can I ignore the king's summons?”
"If the people of this world were to talk about me, Ji Chang, wouldn't they say that I'm rebelling!”
When the aides heard this, they nodded and frowned."That's right! How hateful! He was actually made the Human King by this ridiculous person!”
"Watch your words!" Ji Chang stopped the aide with a serious face.
When the aide came back to his senses, his face was covered in cold sweat!
Although Ji Chang stopped speaking on the surface, he secretly agreed.
Although he had met Huang Feihu at Swallow Mountain and heard that Emperor Xin seemed to be getting better, this might just be a spur of the moment. What if…
Of course, Ji Chang wouldn't reveal his thoughts.
He took out his turtle shell to read his fortune.
When the surrounding people saw that Ji Chang was about to do a divination, they all remained silent, afraid that they would disturb Ji Chang and disrupt the divination!
Ji Chang closed his eyes and focused. He held a turtle shell in his hand and shook it as he chanted something. Then, he shook the copper coin out of the turtle shell.
Ji Chang saw the copper coin and counted it with his fingers.
Ji Fa saw that Ji Chang was silent for a long time and said anxiously,"Father, how is this divination?"
Ji Chang opened his eyes and said," It's neither good nor bad. There won't be any risks in going to Zhaoge. Don't worry!"”
Ji Fa had absolute faith in Ji Chang's fortune-telling abilities.
He could not help but put his heart back into his stomach.
"Father, then I will send people to capture Fei Zhong and You Hun!”
"Yes."
Ji Fa received the order and led a group of soldiers into the guest hall.
Fei Zhong and You Hun were enjoying themselves! He was shocked by Ji Fa who suddenly barged in.
"Second Young Master Ji, what is the meaning of this?" Fei Zhong looked at Ji Fa unhappily.
Ji Fa hated these two people to the core! " Tie them up," he said coldly." Father will escort them to Zhaoge!"”
Fei Zhong and You Hun turned pale with fright and quickly fawned over him,"Second Young Master Ji, do you have some misunderstanding about the two of us? We didn't do anything!"
"Yes, yes!" You Hun echoed.
Ji Fa didn't want to listen to their excuses, so he ordered people to shut their mouths and lock them up.
When everything was ready, Ji Chang led 500 elite soldiers to escort Fei Zhong and You Hun to Zhaoge.
Fei Zhong and You Hun were filled with despair. They thought that everything would be fine if they ran to Xi Qi!
He didn't expect to be escorted back to Chaoge!
Several days later.
In the imperial court…
Ji Chang bowed." Reporting to Your Majesty, Ji Chang has come to report."”
He Feng sat on the throne. Although he wasn't angry, there was a very powerful pressure that forced Ji Chang to kneel.
"No need for formalities." He Feng said indifferently and withdrew his Human King pressure.
Ji Chang's back was drenched in cold sweat. He hurriedly stood up and said,""Your Majesty, I brought back Fei Zhong and You Hun.”
He Feng called the soldiers over." Take these two rebels into the prison. I will deal with them later."”
"Yes!" The soldier bowed respectfully, then dragged Fei Zhongyou away.
Fei Zhong and You Hun struggled, wanting to say something. Unfortunately, her mouth was tightly gagged with a rag. He could only be taken away.
"Men, give Marquis of the West a seat." He Feng ordered indifferently.
After a while, the eunuch brought a chair over and placed it beside Marquis of the West.
Marquis of the West bowed down again to thank him.
After He Feng saw Ji Chang sit down, he said,"Marquis of the West has worked hard to escort these two rebels into the capital." He gave the Marquis of the West a box of jewelry and 100 taels of gold.”
Ji Chang hurriedly stood up." Thank you, Your Majesty."”
" I've long heard that Marquis of the West is knowledgeable," He Feng said." I've decided to make you the Grand Tutor. How about you stay in Zhaoge?"”
Although it was a question, the domineering tone in his words made people not dare to refute.
Hearing this, Ji Chang felt bitter in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey He Feng. He could only kneel down again,""Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"
"Alright, let's call it a day! Retreat!" Seeing that Ji Chang had achieved his goal by staying in Zhaoge, He Feng got up and went back to the palace.
Bi Gan and Shang Rong saw Ji Chang standing in a daze in the hall, so they stepped forward and said,"Lord Marquis?"
"Uncle Wang, Prime Minister." Ji Chang returned to his senses and bowed.”
