——A great shock across Kyushu!
An Lushan was indeed exceedingly clever; he perfectly utilized Li Longji's unpopular actions to cloak himself in a sanctified guise.
The Gu Clan was unwilling to submit to him, so he leveraged the momentum of the Gu Clan.
Li Longji's actions were laid bare here.
This naturally provided An Lushan with an excuse, and coupled with his prior days of continuous sacrifices to the Gu Clan, these measures eventually garnered considerable support from many.
Of course, among them were those who sought opportunism.
After all, An Lushan's momentum was indeed fierce,
but the majority of them were ordinary people who believed in the Gu Clan and resented the way the Emperor treated the Gu Clan.
This was actually a double-edged sword.
If Li Longji were to reinstate the Gu Clan under such circumstances, it would be easy for these people to be swayed.
But An Lushan knew exactly what kind of person Li Longji was.
