Qi Daokun's face turned pale, and he pointed at Zhao Jun and said angrily: "You...you are trying to rebel!"
"So what if you rebel?"
Zhao Jun stood up suddenly, pointing the sword in his hand at Qi Daokun, "I want to overthrow this corrupt court and establish a new dynasty!"
"you……"
Qi Daokun was so angry that he was shaking all over and pointed at Zhao Jun for a long time without being able to speak.
The more Zhang Yuan listened, the more he understood. Qi Daokun said he came to negotiate, but he didn't mention any conditions for negotiation.
He just started by saying things that would provoke the rebels.
I guess Qi Daokun will be put to the sword next.

Qi Daokun was so frightened that his face turned pale. He stepped back repeatedly, but accidentally tripped over a stone and fell flat on his back.

He described the Five Pecks of Rice Army as a group of extremely vicious bandits, and suggested that the court immediately send troops to suppress them. He also recommended General Wang Lu to lead the expedition.
Zhang Yuan also wrote a secret letter to Li Chengfeng, in which he described in detail Qi Daokun's performance during the negotiations and pointed out that Qi Daokun might have colluded with the Five Pecks of Rice Army to deliberately provoke Zhao Jun and prompt him to rebel.
Wang Lu was Prince Gong's man, and Zhang Yuan's letter revealed that perhaps the Right Prime Minister and Prince Gong were also involved.
After doing all this, Zhang Yuan returned to his room with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
