"What is the second option, Immortal Lord?"
Yun Yi stood up and pointed to the map on the tent wall. "The second choice is to continue your unfinished business. I can offer you some support. You should be aware of how deeply rooted the ideology of loyalty to the Han Dynasty and the Liu Family is in people's hearts. For the past four years, Confucian ideals of loyalty and patriotism have permeated society."
"This will be a path filled with countless thorns, and you may become an enemy to the entire realm, facing life-and-death crises at every moment. However, if you succeed, you will be able to save many more lives."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jiao immediately replied without hesitation, "Immortal Lord, I am willing to accept the second option."
Yun Yi confirmed, "Are you certain that your decision cannot be changed?"
Zhang Jiao smiled broadly. "Immortal Lord, even if you hadn't come to find me, I had already made my plans. Some things must be done by someone; how can I easily abandon them for a little danger? Over the years, I have experienced countless life-and-death trials in both the north and south, yet I have never felt fear. Therefore, rather than avoiding risks, I would prefer to use my own hands to save more suffering souls."
Yun Yi listened with admiration on his face. "Well said! Let me share a line of poetry with you: The road ahead is long and arduous; seeking truth above and below shall never bring regret."
"Thank you for your guidance, Immortal Lord. I will remember your words," Zhang Jiao said as he bowed respectfully.
Yun Yi nodded slightly. "There is no need to worry too much. Although the second path will be fraught with difficulties, I will help you through many challenges."
Zhang Jiao's eyes brightened. "Indeed! With you, Immortal Lord, by my side to assist me."
The challenges of the mortal realm may seem trivial to the immortals.
Then, Zhang Jiao shared his carefully concocted plan with Yun Yi, hoping to receive guidance and advice from him. In truth, the plan was quite simple. Zhang Jiao dispatched dozens of loyal messengers to various counties in the Eastern Han, mobilizing the followers of the Taiping Dao there. Once the prophecy spread widely, it could rally hundreds of thousands of believers, like an unstoppable torrent sweeping across the entire land of Eastern Han.
Of course, within this grand vision, the most crucial area was around Si Li. Currently, the Taiping Dao had already infiltrated the palace; once the timing was right and their official banner was raised, he could coordinate with those within the palace to seize control of the emperor. If everything progressed smoothly, it would be possible to oust the Liu Family from the imperial throne. Even if the plan failed, he could still control the emperor and command the feudal lords across the realm.
As Zhang Jiao elaborated on his entire blueprint, Yun Yi remained silent throughout. On the surface, the plan appeared flawless. However, success or failure hinged on actual execution and attention to detail. At that moment, a name flashed through Yun Yi's mind: Tang Zhou.
Tang Zhou was not only a trusted member of Zhang Jiao's inner circle but also a key messenger who held great promise. Yet in history, upon arriving in Luoyang, Tang Zhou turned against Zhang Jiao and betrayed him, revealing to the Eastern Han court that a Yellow Turban Rebellion was about to erupt. This leak not only caused Zhang Jiao to lose his eyes and ears within the court but also gave Eastern Han time to prepare for a response.
Ultimately, this rebellion did not succeed as anticipated; instead, it was launched in a state of panic.
Ultimately led to the complete failure of Huang Jin.
