Upon learning of the brothers' plan, Bigan felt a profound sense of relief and warmth swell within his heart. He recalled the days he had spent governing Great Shang alongside his elder brother; that period was filled with arduous toil and hard work, bearing witness to the immense dedication they poured into the prosperity of Great Shang. Now, seeing Di Xin and Weizi Qi joining forces and disregarding personal safety for the stability and future of Great Shang, Bigan was deeply gratified.
Especially concerning Weizi Qi, whose proactive actions allowed Bigan to see his own younger self. Back then, to safeguard the rule of his elder brother Emperor Yi, Bigan had also covertly contacted opposition factions and successfully eradicated them in one fell swoop. Now, seeing Weizi Qi employ a similar strategy, Bigan felt immensely proud, knowing that Weizi Qi had grown into a wise and resolute leader.
Under Weizi Qi's rallying call, the anti-regime forces within the court rapidly converged. Those ministers who harbored daily dissatisfaction with Di Xin flocked to join Weizi Qi's camp. Their faction grew swiftly, spanning from high-ranking court officials to peddlers and commoners; every corner of Chaoge bore their presence. This rebellious force surged forward like an unstoppable torrent.
