Emperor Xianzong agreed and issued an edict summoning Li Qi. Li Qi, receiving the edict, panicked and rebelled, and was soon captured by his own subordinates, delivered to Chang'an, and executed. Later that year, when the general [[Gao Chongwen]], who had in 806 become the military governor of Xichuan Circuit (西川, headquartered in modern [[Chengdu]], [[Sichuan]]), offered to resign his position to be moved to a border circuit, Emperor Xianzong looked for an appropriate replacement for Gao but was unable to find one quickly, and so made Wu the military governor of Xichuan, still carrying chancellor title as an honorary title.<ref name=ZZTJ237/> Wu had previously carried the title of Count of Yaoxiao, and Emperor Xianzong upgraded his title to Duke of Linhuai.<ref name=NBT152/> It was said that when Gao left the circuit, he carried all kinds of treasures with him; by contrast, Wu lived and governed frugally, and after three years of governance, both the government and the populace were comforted.

He was further said to be careful in his actions, and that while he did not spend much time meeting guests, he was nevertheless able to retain a highly capable staff.<ref name=BT158/>

Meanwhile, Wu Yuanji's allies [[Wang Chengzong]] the military governor of Chengde Circuit (成德, headquartered in modern [[Shijiazhuang]], [[Hebei]]) and [[Li Shidao]] the military governor of Pinglu Circuit (平盧, headquartered in modern [[Tai'an]], [[Shandong]]), were repeatedly pleading on Wu Yuanji's behalf for an imperial pardon, but Emperor Xianzong refused their requests. A group of assassins that Li Shidao had retained persuaded Li Shidao that if Wu Yuanheng were assassinated, the other chancellors would be fearful and would urge an end of the campaign. Li Shidao agreed and sent them to Chang'an to prepare to assassinate Wu Yuanheng. Meanwhile, Wang had sent his officer Yin Shaoqing ({{lang|zh|尹少卿}}) to report to Wu Yuanheng; when Yin did, Yin was insolent, and Wu Yuanheng had him expelled from the office of chancellors. Thereafter, Wang submitted petitions defaming Wu Yuanheng.<ref name=ZZTJ239/>
