Starting as a God-Emperor by Intercepting Destiny

Chapter 112 If the Luo family is worried about being punished later, the best way is to purge the court of corrupt officials (Third update today)

"Your Highness!"

The Tang Clan disciples and Holy Sect followers who were unaware of the situation exclaimed in surprise.

I never expected that such a thing would happen at the very moment of victory.

Then Zhao Jing's voice came through: "Don't worry, I'm fine!"

"A shadow warrior used only to deceive the enemy."

Zhao Jing has cultivated to the peak of the Sacrificial Wine Ceremony, and his attempts to fake a real person's presence are becoming increasingly powerful.

He can also use mystical arts to create a fake body, but this fake body cannot fool experts. It's fine to use it to make a show of things.

By this time, the Yuwen family's power had been completely wiped out.

Even his adopted son, Yuwen Tao, died in this battle, without any suspense.

When Tang Kun and others joined the battle, it turned into a one-sided massacre.

The already heavily wounded elite soldiers died a very humiliating death.

They could have broken through the encirclement using the Zhenguo Killing Formation, but Zhao Jing and his men had too many tricks up their sleeves and killed them outright.

Even within the Xiliang army, these elite troops comprised one-tenth of the Trapped Camp's strength.

The true core backbone.

This was enough to break the Yuwen family's heart.

Each martial artist at the peak of the Innate Realm spends no less than 100,000 taels of silver, or even more.

It is through hundreds of years of effort by the Yuwen family that they have accumulated so many innate realm experts, through generations of selection and training.

Now they are all wiped out.

Not to mention Hua Weimian and Hua Feifei, both of whom are grandmasters.

This news, once it spreads, will be enough to shake the world.

What's even more terrifying is that Zhao Jing sacrificed the dragon's energy the most, and didn't suffer much loss himself.

It can be said that they won completely.

Even with Yuwen Huan's attack, the Poison Dragon Formation remained intact, able to hold out for a moment and buy time for Liu Chengxi.

They won just like that.

Some people could hardly believe it.

Zhao Jing shouted loudly, "Gentlemen, we have defeated the elite troops of the Yuwen family and the elite elite soldiers of the world's number one iron army!"

"From here we will set sail, purge the court of corrupt officials, and quell the rebellion!"

The Tang Clan disciples couldn't help but shout, "Long live Your Highness! Long live Your Highness! Long live Your Highness!"

"Support the Crown Prince and purge the court of corrupt officials!"

The experts of the Heavenly Demon Sect hesitated for a moment. At this moment, Ying Xiaoxu appeared and said to the crowd, "The Holy Sect will assist Your Highness in overthrowing the Empress's tyranny, welcoming the Eternal Mother, and building the Vacuum Homeland!"

"The reason why the Holy Church has been hiding is because the Empress has been corrupt and persecuting good people like us."

"Now that we have the crown prince and have cleansed the court of corrupt officials, everything will be alright."

The believers immediately realized what was happening.

We've cleared our name.

No matter how outrageous Ying Xiaoxu's statement is, politics is never about truth, but about what is needed.

If the Holy Church wants to be whitewashed, it must participate in the campaign to purge the court of corrupt officials.

Therefore, the followers of the Heavenly Demon Sect suddenly believed in loyalty to the emperor and shouted, "Support the Crown Prince, cleanse the court of corrupt officials!"

"Support the Crown Prince and purge the court of corrupt officials!"

It's truly touching.

The empire's largest group of rebels transformed themselves into loyal and patriotic individuals.

Since it's going to be a rebellion anyway, joining a more promising political group would be a huge advantage.

The slogan echoed throughout Chongqing, causing those who heard it to turn pale with fear.

Because Chongqing has officially announced that it has entered the rebellion stage.

Zhao Jing felt a surge of dragon energy arise spontaneously.

[Gained 200 points of Purple Dragon Energy]

As expected, only when Chongqing truly establishes itself as a distinct region will its potential gradually be realized.

As his strength increases, Zhao Jing will acquire more dragon energy.

At this moment, the wine warmer from Tangjiabao woke up, looking utterly astonished: "Your Highness, what exactly do you intend to do?"

Now everyone's stopped pretending and is just being honest.

Zhao Jing smiled and said, "I'm just helping the Luo family and remaining neutral."

"Does Mr. Wenjiu intend to fight us to the death?"

"I am helping you, sir."

Seeing that Zhao Jing was acting innocent after getting the advantage, Mr. Wenjiu sneered, "If I had been any weaker just now, I'm afraid I would have been beheaded."

Despite being struck by the fleeting years, Wenjiu is not entirely powerless to resist.

One of the moves in his Drunken Eight Immortals technique is a state of blissful intoxication, like a dream or an illusion.

Even when the body is controlled, it can automatically attack enemies.

So when he saw that Zhao Jing didn't make a move, he was willing to talk properly.

Zhao Jing replied, "I merely invited you to drink, sir. You are not a strong drinker, so how could you dare to make a move?"

"Besides, that recipe is genuine."

"If Mr. Wenjiu brews his own wine, he can drink this kind of fine wine every day."

The effects of the medicine "Like Water Flowing Through Time" are not strong.

In just one day, the Tang family couldn't produce the most deadly toxin.

The fact that he managed to keep Wenjiu occupied for a moment was already a result of his voluntary compromise and embrace of the past.

Zhao Jing was implying to the other party, "I'm giving you a way out, and you've taken it yourself. Don't be unreasonable."

The results shown by Zhao Jing using the Destiny Bone were extremely accurate.

Event 1: Mr. Wenjiu desperately participates in the battle (Orange, 0.001%)

He would never choose this path.

Even if he were a mid-stage Grandmaster, a martial artist stronger than Tang Kun, he wouldn't act like this.

As expected, Wenjiu replied in a low voice, "Qingxianju suffered a terrible calamity, and there must be an explanation."

"Moreover, Brother Yuwen, no, Young Master Yuwen, has entrusted me with a matter of personal importance."

"How could I remain unmoved?"

Zhao Jing gave the recipe and told Mr. Wenjiu that Yuwen Yi's recipe was stolen in order to diminish that gratitude.

So far, the results are quite good.

After all, it's only natural that Zhao Jing, backed by the Tang Clan, would possess the formula.

On the contrary, Yuwen Yi seemed very strange.

Zhao Jing smiled faintly: "It's alright. Just say that Hua Feifei discovered she was Grand Tutor Yuwen's illegitimate daughter and made a huge scene."

Seeing the mother and daughter fighting, Mr. Wenjiu realized that even an upright official could not settle family disputes, so he had no choice but to leave.

"Unexpectedly, the conflict between mother and daughter has attracted the siege of the Eastern Palace forces."

Alas!

Does this work too?

The wine warmer discovered that the prince's ability to remain calm and composed without blushing or panting was enough for him to be his teacher.

Isn't that all you want to know?

Although this explanation was absurd, it unexpectedly exonerated Mr. Wenjiu.

It's not that I don't want to help, it's just that even an upright official finds it difficult to settle family disputes.

This means that Grand Tutor Yuwen must also take responsibility for this.

The wine-warmer asked, "Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Even if Yucheng rebels and cuts off the main transportation routes in Sichuan, the Dingchuan Army can still march north to suppress the rebellion."

"What will the Tang Clan do then?"

Zhao Jing said with a warm smile, "This is not something the Luo family should be concerned about."

"The King of Shu has been killed. Although Consort Ning is safe, can the false emperor truly trust the Luo family's surrender?"

"Isn't the Luo family worried about retribution later?"

"On the contrary, by following me to restore order, we will surely achieve merit by supporting the emperor."

"Please reconsider, Luo family."

"Whenever the Luo family decides to pledge allegiance to me, I welcome them at any time."

What is Zhao Jing's biggest advantage over the Empress?

He has no animosity towards the Kowloon camp.

This is similar to how Dong Zhuo deposed Liu Bian and replaced Emperor Xian of Han. In that case, the loyal ministers who supported Liu Bian and opposed the replacement instantly became traitors.

If Emperor Xian of Han had truly restored the Han dynasty, these loyal ministers would have had to ask themselves whether they would be purged.

With the change of central government, loyal ministers became traitors.

Then we have no choice but to rebel.

Otherwise, Emperor Xian of Han might suddenly have a whimsical idea in the future.

Were you opposed to Dong Zhuo or to me?

Shouldn't we settle scores later?

Similarly, those in the Kowloon camp instantly became inferior and were gradually eliminated.

Only the princess's own people will be promoted.

This is a shift in political interests, a complete loss.

After the Empress ascends the throne, anyone who isn't a fool will surely show magnanimity and strive to win the loyalty of other forces.

There are benefits to pledging allegiance early.

Those who pledge allegiance late will be punished.

She can quickly create this political atmosphere and then select suitable targets from it.

This situation is not unsolvable if one's political skills are high enough.

Emperor Taizong of Tang treated Wei Zheng leniently as a sign of reconciliation and to quell internal strife.

This method is indeed effective.

The premise is that Zhao Jing is not stirring up trouble.

He wants to revitalize this political ideology time and time again.

If you follow Zhao Jing, you'll still be above everyone else, without any original sin, and might even be considered heroes.

If you follow the Empress, be careful of future repercussions.

For local opportunists, it doesn't matter who supports them from the central government.

However, this option does not exist for the powerful families who once supported the central government.

They will only be eradicated completely.

Mr. Wenjiu's expression changed: "Your Highness, this is a tactic to attack the heart."

"Moreover, the Luo family has grown weary of war."

Zhao Jing smiled and said, "The more you try to escape war, the closer it gets to you."

"Can the Luo family gamble on the magnanimity of a false emperor?"

"Maybe yes, maybe no."

Not every emperor has the magnanimity of Emperor Guangwu of Han, who was able to make a vow at the Luo River even after his brother was killed.

Those who undertake great things do not fear minor grievances; if surrendering can preserve their titles and ranks, they will never break their word.

Sima Yi was more likely to disregard the oath made at Luoshui.

Whether the princess had such a magnanimous heart, Zhao Jing didn't know, but that didn't stop him from slandering her.

Mr. Wenjiu remained silent for a moment.

Suspicion is a poison.

What can the eldest princess do to dispel this suspicion? She can't possibly marry the eldest son of the Luo family.

Zhao Jing continued, "Moreover, you are not on the wrong side. This time, Grand Tutor Yuwen's illegitimate daughter is dead, and his old lover is dead too."

"Does the Luo family really have a choice?"

Damn it!

Mr. Wenjiu was both surprised and furious.

Is this true?

"Genuine, guaranteed!"

If the Luo family could still gamble on the Empress's magnanimity, then now he has to gamble on the Yuwen family's magnanimity as well.

Zhao Jing said leisurely, "The Yuwen family is extremely protective of its own."

"Yuwen Xiao, the second young master of the Yuwen family, was born with superhuman strength. Just because someone in the martial arts world slandered Yuwen Yi, they dragged him to the arena, made him sign a death contract, and beat him to death."

"And they controlled the force, beating him until he was a bloody mess, barely recognizable as a human, and he died."

"Now the Grand Tutor's mistresses and illegitimate daughters are all gone."

"Is the Luo family willing to gamble?"

Beast!

Mr. Wenjiu wasn't cursing the Yuwen family; he was venting his frustrations.

He only did a small favor, how did he get into such trouble?

Who exactly leaked the secret?

Qingxian Residence should be very well-preserved, being a city within a city, and generally speaking, it would not be discovered at all.

As a result, both Hua Weimian and Hua Feifei are now dead.

It's true that the two had a close relationship with the Grand Tutor, but he originally thought they were his subordinates; he never expected there to be this connection.

Zhao Jing has really stirred up a hornet's nest.

After all, he had already killed Yuwen Yi's seventh brother, so killing another half-sister wouldn't be a big deal.

As for Grand Tutor's adopted son, Yuwen Tao, he is even less worthy of mention.

So what if you kill them?

This is nothing.

But for warming wine, it's extremely painful.

He seemed to be muttering to himself, "The Yuwen family is extremely protective of its own."

Zhao Jing answered affirmatively: "Extremely protective of his own, and vengeful to the slightest offense."

Mr. Wenjiu continued, "The Yuwen family is very united."

Zhao Jing nodded: "They are very united. Anyone who dares to offend them will be completely eliminated."

Mr. Wenjiu said again, "The Yuwen family is extremely cruel."

Zhao Jing continued, affirming, "It was extremely cruel; Yuwen Yi once castrated young boys to refine elixirs."

Is there any way out for the Luo family?

Wen Jiu looked pained: "I will inform my family and then make a decision."

Zhao Jing smiled slightly: "I and the King of Shu used to play together, I shouldn't have suffered this calamity."

"Even if the Luo family is unwilling to help, I will not blame them and will always be ready to assist them."

Wen Jiu gave Zhao Jing a deep look: "Your Highness is a man of great taste and refined taste, to be able to send me a recipe."

"This cultivation technique was obtained through a fortuitous encounter while warming wine, and I wish to offer it to Your Highness."

Even if Zhao Jing hadn't succeeded in conquering the world, he would still have been an extremely dangerous figure.

Wenjiu dared not truly oppose him.

Let's establish good relations first, and then contact the head of the family.

Zhao Jing smiled upon hearing this: "I await your good news, sir."

After speaking, he warmed the wine, took his leave, and departed.

Zhao Jing was concerned about whether the Luo family would participate in this gamble, but not too concerned.

As long as these two thorns remain.

Given that the Luo family has chosen to join the Empress's camp, the probability of them launching a siege against Zhao Jing is very low.

They are accustomed to surrendering and rarely engage in direct killing.

Therefore, everyone else died, but the Luo family survived.

It was ugly, but it survived.

After Wen Jiu left, Tang Kun and the others returned to Tang Family Fortress and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, the spoils of war have been collected."

"Very good, take it to the basement."

Zhao Jing couldn't wait any longer and started creating a bunch of shadow warriors.

It would be very interesting if the Yuwen family discovered that Hua Weimian and Hua Feifei had been resurrected.
