Dongfu training room.

Zhao Heng put down the waist card in his hand and fell into a long contemplation.

The situation on the border battlefield changed too quickly, beyond his expectation.

Before, Zhao Heng estimated that the four sects of the devil and the seven sects of the righteous would fight each other to a draw, and even trigger a war between the righteous and the devil, and the winner would enjoy the ruins alone.

Now, the righteous and the devil have tacitly stopped fighting, explored the ruins together, and each relied on their own abilities to seize the treasure.

The two sides seem to have stopped fighting and even cooperated sincerely, but in fact, the battle in the ruins will probably be more intense at that time.

After all, compared to an unknown ruins, the treasures in front of them can stimulate the nerves of warriors and cause bloody fights.

Through Yin Ruoling, Zhao Heng also learned that this time the four sects of the devil and the seven sects of the righteous will issue an announcement in the name of the alliance of the righteous and the devil.

On the day the ruins are opened, warriors of the righteous and the devil who have a cultivation level above the heavenly realm can enter to explore the treasures.

At that time, masters from all the major sects of the righteous and evil ways, as well as independent cultivators from all sides, will all flock in. The people will be mixed, and the fighting will be fierce.

If others learn of this news, they will be extremely excited and want to enter the ruins to share a piece of the pie, but Zhao Heng doesn't think so.

People only have one life, and he doesn't think he is a son of luck.

Adventures can only be taken at noon, because sooner or later you will die.

Staying away from the ruins and practicing safely is the right way.

Now Zhao Heng is a master in the late stage of the Ascension Realm, with a lifespan of four Jiazi, more than two hundred years. If he has a good way to keep healthy, he can even live for nearly three hundred years.

With three hundred years of time, plus the help of the Dao Seed Dice, it is not difficult for Zhao Heng to enter the Guiyuan Realm.

By then, he will be able to rank among the top-notch masters in the Southern Region.

When thinking about this in his heart, Zhao Heng couldn't help but think of his senior sister Yun Qingxue, the woman who had a real marriage with him and the first woman who made him emotional.

She was trapped in the family, and her engagement with Wang Yanwu was about to be fulfilled. With her current strength, she was not enough to change all this.

The opening of this relic seemed to give Zhao Heng another chance to overtake, which slightly shook his original intention of avoiding disasters.

Zhao Heng frowned and shook his head.

"Yin Ruoling said that it would take at least half a year before the ban on the relic was opened. Let's consider this matter then."

The remaining six months were enough for him to consolidate and familiarize himself with his skyrocketing strength.

And his practice methods, martial arts, etc., should also be improved again with dice.

But before that, Zhao Heng still planned to go to the imperial city first to see the situation of the eldest princess.

After a little tidying up, he set up a hidden and defensive magic circle outside the cave.

Zhao Heng summoned a green sword light, rode the wind and flew to Shengyuan City.

In the dense forest several miles outside the city, Zhao Heng landed, but was slightly stunned when he arrived at the city gate.

Shengyuan City is still as magnificent and majestic as before.

But now the four gates of Shengyuan City are no longer bustling with people and caravans.

There are few people outside the city gates, but the number of guards at the gates has increased a lot.

Moreover, Zhao Heng also saw that there were many traces of burnt and damaged, cracks, and blood on the tower.

The trees outside the city gate had traces of being cut down and trampled by war horses.

Zhao Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, and Shengyuan City seemed to have experienced war.

Thinking of the death of the two saints and the turmoil in the court, Zhao Heng couldn't help but feel nervous. Did something happen in the palace?

He hurried to the city gate and entered from the side door. Facing the interrogation of the soldiers guarding the city, Zhao Heng directly took out his official seal.

"Imperial Physician of the Imperial Hospital, Zhao Wuji."

"You are... Mr. Zhao!"

The soldiers guarding the city learned of Zhao Heng's identity and their eyes lit up immediately.

Although it has been several months, the name of Zhao Yuyi in the Imperial Hospital is still loud in the imperial capital.

He made a stunning debut at the Golden Autumn Night Banquet, and his literary talent shocked the imperial capital. He conquered four beautiful courtesans in one night and became a role model for men in the imperial capital.

Then he showed his extraordinary medical skills in the East Palace, and was honored as the world's best doctor by the Imperial Hospital. Wherever Zhao Yuyi went, he was the focus.

Facing the admiring eyes of the soldiers, Zhao Heng stopped and looked at a young guard captain.

"Brother, I have taken leave to go back to my hometown these days, and just returned to the imperial capital today. I don't know what happened in the imperial capital. Why has it become so...depressed?"

Hearing this, the guard captain and the soldiers smiled bitterly at each other.

The young captain looked around and saw that there was no one nearby, so he leaned in and whispered: "Mr. Zhao, I guess you haven't received the news from the imperial capital yet. His Majesty and the Queen... passed away!"

"Ah...!" Zhao Heng pretended to be surprised.

"The two nobles were fine, how could this happen?"

The captain looked bitter: "How can we, the big soldiers, know the reason? We only know that after the death of the two emperors, the government was in chaos, and many princes and generals raised the banner of rebellion and wanted to go to the capital to defend the emperor."

Zhao Heng frowned even more and said: "Doesn't the imperial capital have a prince? As long as the prince succeeds to the throne, the unrest should be quelled."

The captain of the guard sneered and sighed: "Our prince heard that the armies were heading to the imperial capital, so he was scared and fled Shengyuan City with the concubines of the East Palace the night before the coronation ceremony."

Hearing this, Zhao Heng's face finally looked a little ugly.

"So, Shengyuan City has been breached?"

The captain of the guard shook his head, but his face burst into an uplifting look.

"Hehe... Of course not. The various armies that forced their way into the imperial capital were all repelled by the new emperor."

"The new emperor?" Zhao Heng was stunned.

"Which prince ascended the throne and became emperor?"

The captain of the guard said proudly, "It's not the prince. Those princes and princesses fled Shengyuan City as soon as they heard that the prince had escaped.

It was Her Royal Highness the Princess who resolved the crisis in the imperial capital. She is now the first empress in the history of my Yunfeng Dynasty!"

"Empress!"

Zhao Heng's expression became strange for a while, and the captain of the guard told Zhao Heng what happened vividly.

It turned out that when the prince defected, the various armies were at the gates of the city, and Shengyuan City was at a critical moment of life and death.

The princess ascended the throne and called for the imperial guards of the imperial capital, as well as the garrisons from various places that protected the capital, to form a coalition.

The princess led the army and personally led the army to fight outside the city.

The empress led her army to defeat the four great vassal kings and the seven great governors' troops, took back most of the military power, and finally stabilized the overall situation.

After this battle, Shengyuan City was saved, and the eldest princess also relied on her "merit of protecting the country" in times of crisis to block the criticism of the court officials, officially proclaimed herself emperor, and changed the reign title to "Shengyuan".

This matter has been announced to the world, and the vassal kings and generals from all over the country have successively submitted their loyalty to the empress of Shengyuan.

It will not be long before the imperial capital will restore its former prosperity.

After listening to the captain of the guard, Zhao Heng took a deep breath and was filled with emotion.

I didn't expect that after only two months of seclusion, the Yunfeng Dynasty had such a big change, and the eldest princess actually became the empress.

Recalling that when he taught this woman in Changchun Palace, Zhao Heng noticed it at the time.

This princess, with the world in her heart, has greater ambitions than men. Zhao Heng once jokingly thought that this woman might want to usurp the throne, but he didn't expect that her words would come true.

However, Zhao Heng was relieved to know that she was safe.

After a little hesitation, he headed towards the imperial palace.

At this time, in the back hall of the Changchun Palace of the imperial palace.

Behind a table made of top-grade yellow rosewood and carved with dragons and phoenixes.

Wearing a gold-threaded nine-dragon robe, auspicious cloud and dragon pattern buttons, a light gauze woven with silk from silkworms, a beautiful jade belt around her waist, and her long hair tied up with a silver dragon hairpin, the Holy Yuan Empress held a pen in her jade hand and focused on reviewing the memorials.

Although she wore a heroic dragon robe, her hair was tied up high, and her jade face was not made up.

But this did not affect the stunning beauty of the Emperor Shengyuan. The loose dragon robe could not cover up her proud and slender perfect figure. Her flawless face, like a goddess in a painting, looked even more naturally stunning without makeup.

Even at this moment, she stared at the memorials and slightly frowned her eyebrows, which added a different kind of beauty to her.

At this time, in addition to her stunning beauty, the "Yu Qing" at this time also had a kind of majesty of a king overlooking the world in her every move, which made her charm increase instead of decrease.

After reviewing the memorials in her hand, she put them down casually, and the empress stretched out a slender jade finger and gently rubbed her eyebrows.

The two female officials who served her closely on one side hurriedly served tea and snacks, and stepped forward to rub the empress's shoulders.

The two women looked at the empress with deep admiration and admiration. This first empress in the creation of the empire saved Shengyuan City from fire and water, and was invincible. She was a true legend.

The two women felt extremely honored to be able to serve her.

"Your Majesty, you should take a break from the paperwork. Don't tire yourself out."

"Yes, Your Majesty, these matters can be handled by the ministers of the cabinet. You don't have to do everything yourself."

Hearing this, the empress smiled. She was smiling at the innocence of the two women.

Now that the empire has just been established, she has ascended to the throne. It seems that the country is stable and the people are united, but in fact, there are undercurrents.

The vassal kings and generals in various places were just attracted by her spirit, and the defeat of the first batch of troops to defend the king made them afraid.

Choosing to be loyal now may not be true loyalty, but more likely to be waiting for an opportunity.

The civil and military officials in the court now recognize her throne on the surface, but more because the prince and the princes have fled, and she has the merits of defending the country, so they have no choice but to bow their heads.

In fact, in their hearts, it is still not legitimate for a woman to be an emperor. This concept is deeply rooted.

And all this is not what she worries about most. As an emperor, she is also a late-stage Ascension Realm expert.

The empress knew very well that it was not these mortals who decided the fate of the dynasty, but the seven sects in the cultivation world that were high above.

The affiliation of secular emperors is closely related to the resources and luck they need.

Once they also play the game, everything becomes unknown.

Looking at the thick pile of memorials in front of her that have not yet been approved, the empress rarely felt a little tired.

"It's really not so easy to be an emperor. If he were here, would there be a better way?"

The empress couldn't help but look up and look in a certain direction outside the window.

That was the direction he used to go to Changchun Palace. It has been many days since I saw that figure.

I don't know how he is now, whether his injuries have healed, and whether he has returned to the sect?

Thinking of his style when he was in Changchun Palace, writing passionately and teaching her, her eyes were a little obsessed.

Thinking of the man's back as he sneaked into Yunxia Palace and told Yu Qing a story after the class, the empress couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth in amusement.

Recalling her memory, she recalled the night they spent together in the secret room of the cave. Her face flushed again, and there was a hint of shyness and resentment in her eyes...

At this time, the two female officials serving the empress noticed the abnormality of her majesty. They looked at each other and were a little confused.

The empress often looked in that direction and was lost in thought. Only at this time would the empress's majestic and beautiful face become lively, revealing a rare daughter's attitude.

Although the two women were curious, they did not dare to ask more, and they did not dare to disturb the quiet time that belonged to the empress.

However, the empress, who was originally looking at the courtyard wall outside the window and was in a daze, suddenly had her pupils shrink and stood up suddenly.

"This breath... is him!"

The two female officials were startled. Just as they were about to ask, they suddenly felt dizzy and lost consciousness on the spot.

And the empress in the hall disappeared like a breeze...

"Today is a special situation, there is only one update."
