"His Majesty has decreed that all officials and generals in Taiyuan City are under Li Junxian's control for the time being, and Li Junxian is granted the authority to act first and report later. Previous wrongs can be ignored for now, but all of you must work together to rescue King Wei and capture all the Turkic spies in Taiyuan City in one fell swoop to strengthen Imperial authority! Anyone who refuses to listen, obstructs, or stubbornly resists will be executed without exception! "
In the front hall of the relay station, Li Junxian gripped the message that Iron Egg had just translated and solemnly read it to Wang Liaoyuan, Fang Gongteng, Wang Yu, and Dugu Feiying.
That beep beep beep beep was a telegram from the Imperial Astronomer, not from Li Zexuan. Zhao Song had embellished the contents of the telegram according to Li Er's wishes before having the minor eunuch of the Imperial Astronomer send it over. When Bruiser learned that this was a telegram from the palace, he immediately began to translate it. Thus, Li Junxian was now reading out the imperial decree in front of everyone!
Everyone shivered at Li Junxian's words. Wang Liaoyuan and Fang Gongteng glanced at each other before bowing. "This subject Wang Liaoyuan (this general Fang Gongteng) (this general Dugu Feiying) receives the decree!"
Telegraph machines were no longer anything new to the Taiyuan government, especially the Bingzhou Governor's Residence and the Subjugation Residence. Wang Liaoyuan and Fang Gongteng had already received several telegrams from the imperial decree, and Li Junxian's status was so special that no one believed that he would dare to falsify an imperial decree. Thus, no one dared to doubt the authenticity of this' unofficial 'imperial decree that had no yellow silk cloth or imperial seal!
At this moment, Wang Yu was still trying to figure out the deeper meaning hidden in Li Er's imperial edict. After all, the imperial edict did not mention the Wang Family from beginning to end, which made him very nervous. Moreover, he did not know if Li Er's sentence of "let bygones be bygones for the time being" included the Wang Family. If it included them, then that would be for the best. If it did not, then the Wang Family would most likely be doomed in the future! Seeing Wang Liaoyuan, Fang Gongteng, and Dugu Feiying bow to receive the decree, Wang Yu hastily bowed and clasped his hands. "This subject Wang Yu receives the decree!"
Although he was not a local official or general in Taiyuan, as the provincial governor of a province, he was now "trapped" in Taiyuan City. Therefore, he should be one of the "officials and generals in Taiyuan City". Although it sounded far-fetched, it was understandable. With the Wang family's position in Taiyuan, even Wang Liaoyuan, the provincial governor of Bingzhou, could not compare to them in terms of power and influence! With the Wang Clan's help, Taiyuan's Taiyuan, Li's's's name.
Seeing this, Li Junxian put away the telegram and turned to the others. "None of us wanted to see His Highness kidnapped, and all of us were responsible. But if we can safely rescue His Highness, we will make up for our mistakes. His Majesty has always been fair in his rewards and punishments. I trust that he will not only not punish us, he will even reward us!"
As the highest-ranking official in Taiyuan City, Wang Liaoyuan was the first to express his stance. "General Li is correct. Since His Majesty has decreed, this official and all the officials and bailiffs of the Provincial Governor's Residence will do our best to cooperate with General Li. As for the various county offices, if General Li requires their cooperation, this official will immediately send word to them! I only hope that we can quickly rescue His Highness King of Wei! "
