Starting as a God-Emperor by Intercepting Destiny

0058 The seemingly unbreakable alliance was ripped open by Zhao Jing.

The turmoil in Yujing seemed to have come to an end.

The turmoil in the world has only just begun.

After the eldest princess and Emperor Hongjing performed a classic tale of filial piety and parental love, she couldn't wait to take away the Imperial Seal of the State.

Emperor Hongjing, who was originally a hundred years old, suddenly looked much older.

It wasn't just because he lost power, but also because he lost the protection of his ancestors' power.

Emperor Hongjing originally possessed the cultivation level of a Grandmaster and was also a disciple of a saint.

These saints are not those who cultivate themselves; any emperor is at least a saint.

Once the Imperial Seal is lost, the number of followers will gradually dwindle and cannot be replenished.

The unique nature of royal succession lies here.

The fact that the eldest princess obtained the Imperial Seal of the State did not mean that she became a saint.

She also needs to go to the imperial mausoleum to pay homage to her ancestors in order to receive their blessings and become a saint.

The situation is unclear now, and the sooner the eldest princess becomes a saint, the better.

The transfer of power thus began rapidly.

After the Imperial Guards and Grandmaster-level experts quelled the rebellion in Yujing in one fell swoop, the Eldest Princess personally led the elite Xuanwu Army out of the capital to Wanshou Mountain to hold the final ceremony.

However, Yuwen Yi felt a vague unease in his heart.

The news of Yuwen Zhe's killing of Du Jin could no longer be kept secret.

The Yuwen family naturally rejected such absurd behavior on the spot, stating that it was all a disguise.

The Yuwen family will relentlessly hunt down the imposter.

Yujing is now conducting a large-scale investigation, capturing and executing one by one the hidden remnants of the royal family.

The entire capital was permeated with an inescapable stench of blood and the smell of burning.

Yuwen Yi then recalled the palpitations he felt yesterday, and the loss of the Free and Unfettered Sword.

This made him even more certain that something had likely happened to Xiao Qi.

Yuwen Huan only said one sentence:

"The important matter is of utmost importance."

"If anything happens to Xiao Qi, we will avenge him in the future."

"Immediately inform them that the enemy is highly likely to impersonate members of the Yuwen family and launch an operation."

Yuwen Huan had many children, but he did not feel much grief over their deaths.

There are always deaths in a coup d'état.

Since the tribulation, Yuwen Yi had been sailing smoothly and had never suffered such a great loss, which made him somewhat uneasy.

With Yuwen Huan's guidance, Yuwen Yi immediately composed himself:

"Yes, Father."

"That's right."

Yuwen Huan said earnestly:

"The Yuwen family will need your help in the future."

"Your plan far exceeded my expectations, but you were still a bit rash in your actions."

Yuwen Yi took a step back and said softly:

"Father, and my eldest brother, second brother, and third brother are here."

"I only wish to help my family escape this fate..."

Yuwen Zheng was the leader of the Liangzhou Academy, and he was in charge of managing the internal affairs of Liangzhou.

Yuwen Xiao possesses extremely high martial prowess. Even after three years of development and seizing Shen Changsheng's resources, Yuwen Yi is only at the Grandmaster level. Compared to Yuwen Xiao, the outcome is still uncertain.

If Yuwen Xiao hadn't been stationed in Liangzhou to prevent the orcs from attacking, then the person who set up the Zhenguo Army formation and attacked Liu Chengxi would have been someone else.

As for Yuwen Ying, he controlled the Yuwen family's largest intelligence system.

Yuwen Ying was the unsung hero behind the success of this coup.

Yuwen Huan shook his head and said:

"None of them are as important as you."

"Your marriage to the Princess is the only guarantee for the family."

Even if my father dies.

As a half-step immortal, Yuwen Huan had dominated the Dayong Dynasty for nearly a century and had long since become indifferent to life and death.

This still made Yuwen Yi uncomfortable:

"Father!"

Yuwen Huan added:

"Everyone dies eventually, there's nothing to worry about."

"If I, your father, can become a terrestrial immortal, the Yuwen family will naturally rise to the highest position, just as the founding emperor did in the past."

"If it doesn't work out, the eldest princess will truly rely on the Yuwen family, and there won't be any repercussions later."

"At least this generation won't."

Yuwen Huan witnessed Emperor Shizong's failure to ascend to the rank of Human Immortal.

He is now injured, and even with the help of the Great Yong Kingdom's fortune, there is no guarantee of success.

Therefore, it is necessary to make arrangements in advance.

If Yuwen Yi and the Eldest Princess were to marry, removing Yuwen Huan would actually allow them to truly unite.

At least the reckoning will have to wait until the eldest princess becomes the true empress.

The eldest princess is a smart woman and won't start infighting right now.

Yuwen Huan was confident in Yuwen Yi's current abilities, believing he could subdue the eldest princess and prevent the worst-case scenario from occurring.

"Yes, Father!"

As if remembering something, Yuwen Yi quickly added:

"By the way, Father."

"The third Destiny Bone is in the Imperial Mausoleum."

"Once Huang'er obtains the Heavenly Fate Bone, I will borrow it from her to help Father advance to the level of a terrestrial immortal in one fell swoop."

Although he did not know the function of the third Destiny Bone, Yuwen Yi believed that this treasure must have extraordinary effects.

"No!"

Yuwen Huan rebuked him:

"It has to be something she's willing to give."

"If she's unwilling to give it, just pretend you don't know."

"Now is the time for us to work together, understand?"

Yuwen Yi immediately realized his mistake:

"I understand!"

Although the Yuwen family was powerful and influential, it did not mean they could crush all other forces.

Therefore, the eldest princess is very important.

Yuwen Zheng once suggested that instead of joining forces with the Eldest Princess, they should support Zhao Chuan.

Zhao Chuan is weak-willed and easily manipulated, making him suitable as a puppet.

However, Zhao Chuan could not offer any help to the Yuwen family, unlike the Eldest Princess, who could unite the Prince of Zhenbei, Abbot Liaochen, and others.

Zhao Chuan is a good person, but not suitable.

After all, no matter how useless Emperor Hongjing was, he still understood some imperial tactics and wouldn't allow the Yuwen family to grow to this extent.

No matter how arrogant Yuwen Huan was, he would never think that he was the best in the world and could easily crush his opponents.

This adventure is to resolve a hidden danger within the family.

After all, his lifespan was also limited.

If Yuwen Yi hadn't undergone a complete transformation, Yuwen Huan might not have taken this risk.

"Good that you understand."

"You will go to Longevity Hill to assist Her Highness the Princess in completing her coronation ceremony."

"I, as your father, will not go."

Yuwen Yi looked surprised, but then he understood.

If His Majesty the Emperor were to appear, how embarrassed would Yuwen Huan be?

The Yuwen family's current prosperity is thanks to the patronage of Emperor Shizong, a kindness that should never be forgotten.

Just as Emperor Wu of Han wronged many people, but he was true to Huo Guang.

If Huo Guang were to rebel, he would be even more of a beast than the Sima family.

Yuwen Huan dared not go to see him.

He could only give a reply:

"Yes, Father!"

……

The Princess Alliance forces quelled the chaos in Yujing before setting off.

The eldest princess and Yuwen Yi rode side by side on tall horses.

She inspected the Beijing garrison while gesturing with a smile.

Soldiers of the Beijing garrison, holding colorful flags, shouted in unison:

"Long live the Princess! Long live the Princess! Long live the Princess!"

There was no resistance.

The soldiers of the Beijing garrison have always been like this: they help whoever wins.

The princess smiled outwardly, but secretly used a telepathic technique to communicate in her mind:

"The Beijing garrison must be disbanded and retrained."

"The orcs in Liangzhou are now largely at peace. Yuwen Xiao can be transferred to Yujing to take charge of the capital garrison."

"At the same time, Governor Gu has performed exceptionally well, and I will give him another important position."

After the coup ended, the eldest princess naturally wanted to express goodwill towards the Yuwen family, demonstrating that the princess alliance remained strong.

To prevent anyone from using Yuwen Zhe's affairs to sow discord.

As for Gu Changfeng, he is a very dangerous man, and the Princess naturally does not want him to continue to command the capital garrison, but would instead replace him with her own confidant.

Yuwen Yi also smiled:

"Your Highness, rest assured, if we are willing to help you achieve your goal, Brother Gu will do his utmost."

Yuwen Yi has decided to have the Countess fake her death, then change her identity and become Gu Changfeng's wife.

This whole operation was enough to make Gu Changfeng extremely grateful.

The eldest princess felt somewhat unwell.

Gu Changfeng is a truly awful person who crosses the line.

But she quickly regained her composure.

How clean can one be?

The eldest princess wanted to become empress and realize her ambitions, so she had to get her hands dirty with blood.

Can't go back anymore.

"I'll do as you say, you make the arrangements."

The princess's words invigorated Yuwen Yi, who, after three years of hard work, was finally about to reach the finish line.

At this moment, Gu Changfeng, the commander of the capital garrison, led his soldiers to greet him. Yuwen Yi was about to say hello when he suddenly realized something was wrong.

What are you doing here?

Both sides arrived in too much of a hurry, and some intelligence has not yet been exchanged.

Gu Changfeng was anxious to assemble a large army, but he had not received any news about Yuwen Zhe.

He led the Beijing garrison soldiers to set up a formation, and shouted three times in succession:

"We request that Your Highness be made Empress!"

"We request that Your Highness be made Empress!"

"We request that Your Highness be made Empress!"

The princess's face instantly turned icy, her beautiful phoenix eyes burning with rage:

"Are you in such a hurry?"

I originally thought you were a smart person who would understand my ideals.

Looking at it now, you're just an ordinary person.

Yuwen Yi instantly felt his hands and feet turn icy cold, and a chill shot up from his spine to the top of his head.

"Traitor, stop talking nonsense!"

Yuwen Yi leaped off his horse and threw a punch at Gu Changfeng.

You beast, you treacherous bastard!

Gu Changfeng was shocked. He had thought the princess would be angry and rebuke him, but unexpectedly, Yuwen Yi made the first move.

That bastard deliberately framed me!

In an instant, Gu Changfeng imagined that Yuwen Yi wanted to test the Princess, and if the Princess had any problems, he would discard her after she had served her purpose.

Beast!

We will not let you succeed.

Nine Forms of Soul Severance—Soul Vanishes and Spirit Dissipates!

kill!

Two sworn brothers clashed in a fierce battle on the way to the princess's coronation ceremony.

"Hahaha!"

Zhao Jing, who was controlling Yuwen Zhe from behind, picked up a telescope and saw the scene before him.

This was the first time he had laughed so happily since the coup, and he almost cried.

It's time for the next step.
