The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

"it is good!"

Zhao Wuyang stood up proudly and said.

Chu Xiu took a step forward and disappeared from the command tent.

Lin Huaiyu used his lightness skill to catch up and also disappeared.

After watching Chu Xiu and the other man leave, Zhao Wuyang said in a deep and powerful voice, "Someone, summon all officers of the rank of lieutenant general and above from our capital garrison to the command tent for a meeting!"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing Zhao Wuyang's words, a soldier from the Beijing garrison guarding outside the command tent responded and quickly left.

After a cup of tea.

The entire Beijing garrison was mobilized.

Xie Xuan, deputy general of the Beijing garrison, led 50,000 troops as the vanguard, while Zhao Wuyang, general of the Beijing garrison, served as the commander-in-chief, leading 250,000 troops as the rearguard.

Keep in mind that the entire Beijing Garrison only had 500,000 troops.

This time, Zhao Wuyang mobilized 300,000 troops to leave the capital.

The sight of 300,000 troops leaving the capital was so grand and continuous that it shook the entire city.

The headquarters of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Chu Xiu sat upright in the main seat of the hall.

Li Jingtian and the others stood in the hall.

"Li Jingtian, you will be in charge of overseeing our Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters and coordinating the overall situation."

"We need to pay attention not only to Qingzhou, but also to all other prefectures and counties in our Great Zhou Dynasty."

Chu Xiu looked at Li Jingtian and said calmly.

The Yellow Heaven Sect is currently only raising its banner in rebellion in Qingzhou, but that does not mean that the Yellow Heaven Sect will only raise its banner in rebellion in Qingzhou.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Jingtian clasped his hands together and said in a strong and resounding voice.

"Ximen Jue, Nie Kuangren."

Chu Xiu nodded slightly, looked at Ximen Jue and the other two, and said calmly.

"My subordinate is here!"

Ximen Jue and Nie Kuangren shouted loudly.

"The two of you will be stationed in the North and South Garrison Commands."

Chu Xiu said calmly.

"Yes!"

Ximen Jue and the other man spoke with utmost respect.

"Fang Heng, Pei Shiji, and Luo Tianxi, the three of you will select three thousand men from our elite Jinyiwei and send them to Qingzhou."

Chu Xiu stood up and addressed Fang Heng and the other two.

He did not intend to lead too many elite Jinyiwei to Qingzhou; a portion of the elites would remain in the Jinyiwei headquarters.

He had this in mind when he appointed Ximen Jue and Nie Kuangren to oversee the North and South Garrison Offices.

If problems arise in other prefectures or counties, the two of them can lead the elite Imperial Guards to those areas.

"I obey my orders!"

Fang Heng and the other two called out with utmost respect.

"I will go ahead to Qingzhou. We will meet outside Qingzhou City."

Chu Xiu left with those words and then disappeared from the main hall of the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters.

"Farewell to the Marquis."

Seeing Chu Xiu leave, Li Jingtian and the others shouted in unison.

Qingzhou, Qingzhou City.

Governor's Mansion.

"Reporting to the Holy Son, we have already conducted a purge of the Embroidered Uniform Guard throughout the entire Qingzhou region."

"Except for a very few Imperial Guards who managed to escape, the rest were all executed."

An old Taoist priest dressed in a blue robe and carrying a long sword walked into the main hall of the governor's mansion and bowed to a young Taoist priest with a dignified bearing, dressed in a red robe and holding a book.

The Taoist priest in the green robe was none other than Su Qinghe, an elder of the Huangtian Sect.

Within the Yellow Heaven Sect, even elders can only wear blue Taoist robes.

Only the nine holy sons of the Yellow Heaven Sect are allowed to wear red Taoist robes.

The purple Taoist robe, even more prestigious than the red one, was reserved for the four Dharma Kings of the Yellow Heaven Sect.

"Where are the secret agents of the Embroidered Uniform Guard?"

Xiao Qingcang said without looking up.

"Your Majesty, the Embroidered Uniform Guard's spies are extremely well hidden, making them incredibly difficult to find."

"We haven't captured any Jinyiwei spies yet."

Su Qinghe hesitated for a moment before speaking to Xiao Qingcang.

"Then let's leave them alone for now."

"Elder Su, do you think Chu Xiu has come to Qingzhou?"

Xiao Qingcang put down the book in his hand, slowly stood up, looked in the direction of the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and said with a smile.

"Reporting to the Holy Son, given Chu Xiu's character, once he knows that Qingzhou has become part of our Huangtian Sect, he will surely come personally to suppress our Huangtian Sect."

Su Qinghe's expression turned solemn, and he spoke earnestly.

"Indeed, I also guessed he would come!"

"Moreover, now that he's come to Qingzhou City, he'll definitely try to kill me!"

Xiao Qingcang smiled gently and said in a warm and gentle tone.

“Holy Son, with our Yellow Heaven Sect’s Yellow Heaven Limitless Formation, even if Chu Xiu possesses the legendary Five Elements Escape Technique, he will inevitably be trapped within the formation once he enters the Governor’s Mansion.”

A cold glint flashed in Su Qinghe's eyes as he said, "I do hope that Chu Xiu will come."

Once trapped inside the Yellow Heaven Limitless Formation, he is doomed!

This man was the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard of the Great Zhou Dynasty. His death was tantamount to cutting off one of the arms of Empress Murong Si of the Great Zhou Dynasty!

Xiao Qingcang stood with his hands behind his back and smiled calmly.

At a restaurant less than a few miles from the governor's mansion.

A young scholar dressed in white, with an ordinary appearance, was sitting at a table by the window on the third floor of the restaurant, eating meat and drinking wine.

This young scholar was none other than Chu Xiu.

Thanks to the disguise technique rewarded by the positive energy system, Chu Xiu transformed into his current appearance in the blink of an eye, without needing to use any drugs for disguise.

Moreover, it wasn't just her appearance that changed; her demeanor also underwent a tremendous transformation.

Anyone who sees Chu Xiu would think he is just an ordinary scholar, and would not imagine that he is the Marquis of Champion of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

"The governor's mansion actually contains a formation?"

Chu Xiu, relying on his ability to observe qi, could see that the entire governor's mansion was as if it were a single entity. He frowned and said, "It seems that it will not be an easy task to infiltrate the governor's mansion to investigate the strength of the Yellow Heaven Sect."

If we are trapped inside the formation, we will be at the mercy of the Yellow Heaven Sect.

"Therefore, I cannot enter the governor's mansion."

"We must get Xiao Qingcang out of the governor's mansion."

"Moreover, even without entering the governor's mansion, we can still throw Qingzhou City into chaos."

"At the very least, Jiang Yun must die!"

After a pause, Chu Xiu looked towards the direction of the Qingzhou City military camp and said, "But there's no rush. It's not too late to make a move after dark."

After saying that, Chu Xiu continued eating meat and drinking wine.

Regardless of whether Qingzhou Commandant Jiang Yun was forced to submit to Xiao Qingcang, one of the nine holy sons of the Yellow Heaven Sect.

He has already defected to the Yellow Heaven Sect.

Now that Jiang Yun has joined the Yellow Heaven Sect, he must die!

Jiang Yun must be executed with swift and decisive force, so that all officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty know that betraying the Great Zhou Dynasty means certain death!

Before we knew it, it was night.

There was no moon, only a few scattered stars, making the night exceptionally dark.

At this very moment, the Qingzhou City military camp was brightly lit.

In the training ground, Jiang Yun, the governor of Qingzhou, led tens of thousands of soldiers, looking solemnly at the statue of the Yellow Heavenly Saint on the reviewing stand, and said in a steady and powerful voice: "Pay homage!"

After saying that, Jiang Yun bowed to the statue of the Yellow Heaven Saint Venerable.

Tens of thousands of soldiers from the prefecture also joined in paying homage to the statue of the Yellow Heavenly Saint.

Suddenly!

hum!

A buzzing sound rang out from the statue of the Yellow Heaven Saint Venerable.
