Chapter 65: Taking Control of Luojing
The royal ancestor fled in defeat.

Can one imagine what happened to the defenders of Luojing City?

With Cao Chun's support and General Cheng's despair and reduced morale, it took Gongsun Sheng and his men less than half a quarter of an hour to break into the inner city and occupy the entire Luojing City.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, General Cheng led his troops to retreat.

only.

He was caught before he could escape from Luojing City.

On the other side, Ye Jiuxing led the army, accompanied by Lu Junyi and others, and entered Luojing City amidst awe and fear in their eyes.

When the flag of Dayu fell, it meant the fall of Luojing City.

One of the two capitals of Dayu fell into the hands of Ye Jiuxing.

And this battle is destined to have far-reaching impact.

Luojing!

Not your average capital city!
It is the birthplace of the Dayu royal family. The tombs of all the successive Dayu monarchs are located within the territory of Luojing City, and it is home to tens of thousands of Zhao royal family members and a bunch of kings without fiefs.

In fact, at the beginning of the establishment of Dayu.

Luojing almost became an imperial city.

However, Luojing’s geographical advantages are too poor. There are no strategic locations to defend, and the surrounding terrain is flat and undisturbed, making it of no strategic significance at all.

In order to ensure the longevity of Dayu, the Zhao royal family considered carefully and decided to choose another place.

However, the Zhao royal family never stopped the construction and development of Luojing.

"Lord!"

At the gate of the inner city, Bai Qi, Cao Chun, Gongsun Sheng and others stood and saluted respectfully.

"Please get up!"

Ye Jiuxing looked around at everyone and focused his attention on Bai Qi. After a fierce battle, the latter's body was covered with scars, large and small, numbering dozens, making him look particularly hideous.

Many of the deeper wounds were oozing blood, which was dripping onto the ground.

If he were an ordinary warrior, he would have probably laid down long ago.

But Bai Qi still insisted on receiving the emperor.

Ye Jiuxing's face changed, and he walked up to Bai Qi, saying with a worried look on his face: "How are you? Go down and rest, and heal your wounds!"

As he said this, he ordered Lu Junyi to help Bai Qi down and send a military doctor to take good care of him.

After finishing all this, Ye Jiuxing said to Cao Chun, Gongsun Sheng and others: "You have worked hard in this battle. Go and rest first, have a good sleep, and discuss matters tomorrow!"

"As ordered!"

The generals saluted and turned to leave.

Ye Jiuxing led the remaining people into the inner city.

Although it is called the inner city, it should be called a small imperial court. It covers a vast area and has palaces, office agencies, imperial gardens, etc. It is magnificent and beautiful.

This scene alone is better than any other in the world!
Ye Jiuxing was in a good mood when he saw it.

From now on, the owner of this huge palace will change his surname to Ye!

Ye Jiuxing walked through the long imperial road, which was paved with bluestone and was five meters wide. On both sides were statues of various auspicious beasts carved from white jade, which looked vivid and lifelike with shining spiritual light.

After passing through the imperial road and going forward, there is a palace with ninety-nine floors.

Climb up and look far away, you can have a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery.

The world is small.

I suddenly felt a sense of heroism.

Entering the hall, what comes into view is the golden dragon throne, with an empty imperial desk and cushions underneath.

Ye Jiuxing took a quick look around and found that the layout of this palace was exactly the same as that of the imperial court. The only difference was that it was much smaller in area.

"My lord, please take a seat!"

Wu Yong walked behind Ye Jiuxing and said with a bow.

Take a seat!

Ye Jiuxing looked at the dragon throne and walked up to it without hesitation. He also wanted to try to see how the emperor's chair was different from ordinary chairs, and whether it contained some kind of magic that made countless creatures crazy and obsessed with it.

There are conflicts all over the world, and conflicts over imperial power are particularly frequent!
Looking around the world, many powerful people will shout, "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers of different species?"

Then, they rose up, overthrew the old dynasty and established a new one.

And the person who becomes emperor will try every means to strengthen centralization, ensure the supreme status of the royal family, and eliminate all those who may or will threaten the royal family in the future, such as Empress Zhao Wan'er.

During this period, Ye Jiuxing thought carefully about a question, which is.
Does the empress know the original owner’s loyalty?
Definitely know!

but!

There is one most important reason.

Martial arts talent!

The original owner's talent for cultivation was so terrifying that he had broken through to the Return to One Realm before he was twenty years old. As long as he didn't die in the middle of the process, he would have almost locked in his cultivation in the Saint Realm.

This would become a huge threat.

You know, in the royal family's thousand-year heritage, there is only one saint-level warrior.

The original owner’s breakthrough will inevitably disrupt the balance.

Once the balance is broken, a series of unpredictable consequences will occur.

In order to eliminate hidden dangers, strengthen centralization, and avoid situations where the tail becomes too big to be cut off, the best way is to act in advance and nip the crisis in the bud.

While thinking, Ye Jiuxing had already arrived in front of the dragon throne.

"call!"

He took a deep breath, turned around and sat on the dragon chair. It was cold and hard and not very comfortable.

At this moment, a mysterious and wonderful aura fell into Ye Jiuxing's body and flowed in his body. It was the power of destiny of Xingzhou, Liangzhou, and Luojing.

Ye Jiuxing's mind moved, and he immediately checked it out, but the next moment, the power of luck dispersed again.

gone!
what happened?

Ye Jiuxing was stunned, but after a little thought, he figured out what was going on.

He is the master of this land and can mobilize the power of destiny.

However, he did not have an official identity and was unable to gather this force of destiny.

king!

Become an emperor, gather your luck, build a supreme country, and forge the strongest martial arts!
"I see!"

Ye Jiuxing's eyes flickered as he muttered to himself.

He felt that he had found his future development direction and the path to becoming stronger in martial arts.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have completed the side quest, occupied one of the two capitals of Dayu, and obtained thirty years of cultivation and a chance to summon a Chinese hero. Do you want to use it? ]

Just then, the system prompt sounded.

Ye Jiuxing was delighted.

Thirty years of cultivation!
A peerless genius!

Both of these things are what he lacks, especially a peerless talent, any one of whom is enough to change the world.

"lottery!"

[Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained the peerless hero of China, Zhuge Liang, do you want to summon him? ]

Zhuge Liang!
The Prime Minister of Shu who devoted his life to the country and died for it!
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that Cao Wei has the character of Cao Wei, and Shu Han has the romance of Shu Han.

And this romance includes the Three Heroes of Peach Garden, Crossing the River with the People, and Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage.

Among them, he entrusted his son to the care of others in Baidi City, creating a political myth that the king does not doubt his subjects and the subjects do not betray their king. Looking at later generations, no one can match him.

The opposite of this was Sima Yi of the same period.

Sima Yi, as a minister entrusted with the care of the young emperor, did unjust things, abandoned the oath made at Luoshui, undermined the power of Wei, sought power and usurped the throne, making the Sima family infamous for all eternity.

In comparison, the Prime Minister’s righteousness is evident to all heaven and earth!

Ye Jiuxing was extremely happy thinking about Zhuge Liang's life, and he couldn't wait to order:
"call!"
