"It's a good opportunity to fill the vacancy left by the Li Party with a batch of new officials. Now it seems Li Yanfu's rebellion has actually helped us. Otherwise, if he hadn't revolted, it would be difficult for me to act against them upon my return to the capital without a justified reason. Keeping those people would have been a major hidden threat."
Zhao Douan chuckled softly, "If Li Yanfu learns in prison that Your Majesty is thankful to him, he might spit blood."
Xu Zhenguan smiled gently and changed the topic, "Over at the Divine Dragon Temple..."
Zhao Douan withdrew his hand and once again took out the wordless golden scripture from his bosom. He recounted his experiences and supplemented with some analysis from Heavenly Master Zhang.
However, he chose to conceal the matter of Zhang Yan Yi probing him about the Mubei Forest.
