Open the door, fellow countryman, we are one.

Chapter 4 Destiny
The family dinner ended and everyone returned to the palace.

Eunuch Cao supported Emperor Yu as he left. Emperor Yu said calmly, "My sons all have their own thoughts."

"Your Majesty, all the princes are dragons among men." Eunuch Cao said respectfully.

"Heh." Emperor Yu chuckled and said, "Check the palace to see who has connections with the Sword Pavilion, including those princesses."

"Yes." A cold light flashed in Eunuch Cao's eyes.

Jiange is very powerful, but it is not easy to sneak into the imperial palace quietly.

Moreover, he went to great lengths to infiltrate just to kill his disciple?
Why not kill the princes and princesses, or even assassinate Emperor Yu?

The palace of the third prince.

After Li Yi came back, he entered the room and looked through the "Dayun Tongtianjian".

"Cultivate the true qi of the imperial way, connect with the will of heaven, control the fortune of the dynasty, and be blessed with destiny... You can break free from the shackles and enter the ultimate realm of cultivation..."

"So this is destiny, the supreme position."

Li Yi murmured, and finally came into contact with the clue of destiny.

The ancient secrets that I found in the Imperial Palace Treasure House in my previous life emerged in my mind.

Thousands of years ago, there were strong men in the world who could fly, move mountains and fill the sea.

In today's era, Eunuch Cao's ability to break through 3,000 armors is the best in the world, and it is difficult to make any further progress.

Although Eunuch Cao was very powerful, he was still no match for the huge army of the imperial court.

"A stranger imparts the Dharma?"

Li Yi sneered in his heart. He had found relevant ancient books in the palace treasury.

This "Dayun Tongtianjian" was dug out from a dead person's tomb by the ancestors of the Yu Dynasty.

The ancestor of the Yu Dynasty was just a local scholar!

"My cultivation is recovering, so this is a good opportunity to transform it into imperial qi." Li Yi thought to himself.

He could already feel that his true energy was slowly recovering.

The imperial qi of "Dayun Tongtianjian" is very domineering. After it is cultivated, it can transform into the nine dragon qi, which is both offensive and defensive.

There are nine levels in total, each level represents a transformation. When one reaches the ninth level, one can completely shed the mortal body.

But if you want to achieve the ninth level, you must be blessed by heaven and break free from the shackles.

In today's world, the eighth level is the pinnacle of the human world.

The Taixuan Sword Sutra he practiced when he was incarnated as Li Youdao only had eight levels, and he was the best among the seventh level.

The eldest princess Li Changle is at the seventh level limit and is about to reach the eighth level.

He sat cross-legged and practiced the "Da Yun Tong Tian Jian" to transform the recovered true energy.

He was in a state of meditation and cultivation, but it was not so easy for the other princes and princesses to calm down.

Taoist temple in the deep palace.

Li Changle frowned, "I didn't expect that sword to be recognized. Killing Li Youdao was too hasty."

She didn't regret it because Li Youdao had already found out about her.

If she is not killed, she will be exposed and targeted by the prince.

"Fortunately, the Sword Pavilion has long been hidden, and all that remains are disposable."

She pondered for a long time and felt relieved when she felt that there was nothing wrong.

The prince has already mobilized people and headed to Jiange.

An imperial decree was then issued: "Anyone below Jiange who rebels against the superiors shall be executed!"

For a time, the whole world was in an uproar. Jiange was one of the three major forces in the martial arts world and a holy place for cultivation.

Now, a decree to destroy Jiange naturally caused fierce resistance from the cultivation community.

The prince lost Li Youdao and one of his arms, and for a moment he didn't know who to send to supervise.

Although he has many subordinates, none of them can compare to Li Youdao.

The other princes also had their own ideas and were ready to cause trouble for the crown prince.

The Tenth Prince, Li He, packed up his belongings overnight and left the palace early the next morning. "Your Highness, are you really leaving like this?" the personal eunuch asked cautiously.

This little prince was furious last night, how come he became a different person overnight and left the palace in high spirits?
Li He glanced at him and said: "The sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly."

Although I have left the center of power, I am freer outside.

As long as he stays away from a few princes, keeps a low profile, builds high walls, stores up food supplies, and slowly declares himself king, then there is no need to worry about not taking over the world.

Fight on, and when you are almost done, I will come back to pick up the ready-made reward.

Two dogs fight, play off!
He just couldn't believe that he, a person from later generations, couldn't deal with a group of brainless ancient people?
The only thing worth worrying about is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should arrive before me.

"Your Highness is wise." The young eunuch complimented and gestured backwards.

Soon, someone recorded Li He's words and passed them into the palace.

The tenth prince Li He left the palace without any princes or princesses to see him off.

They both have the "Dayun Tongtianjian", which is basically equivalent to tearing their relations apart. The Tenth Prince is seeking his own death, so who will come to help him?
Li Yi got up early and washed up with the help of Le Su.

Le Su asked Xiao Xuanzi to fetch breakfast, and whispered, "The Crown Prince has ordered the army to enter Jiange. His men are vying for positions, so they sent several eunuchs to accompany them."

"Yeah." Li Yi nodded slightly: "Any other news?"

"The tenth prince has left the palace, and the other princes are all thinking about him. He probably won't live long." Le Su said.

Li Yi was in deep thought. The idea of ​​saving Li He and using his name to cover up his own arrangements just arose in his mind, but it was suppressed by him.

It’s better to do nothing now.

There are too many people who want to eliminate Li He, and the price of saving him is too high.

"Your Highness is unable to act freely, so you have to take more care of yourself at this stage." Li Yi said.

"Your Highness, please give your orders." Le Su said respectfully.

"I have no instructions for you at the moment, just pay attention to the movements outside."

Li Yi said calmly.

He thought about revealing the news about Li Changle to the prince, but held back.

Even if Li Changle really has a connection with Jiange, she cannot defeat Crown Prince Li Qian now.

It is better to let her take action secretly first to weaken Li Qian's strength, and then pass on the message when the situation is almost right.

As for the other princes, he had also investigated and was certain that the sixth, fifth, and eighth princes were not from later generations.

After thinking about these princes, the figure of the old and frail Emperor Yu appeared in my mind, and I felt inexplicably cold in my heart.

When he followed Eunuch Cao, he was once told by him: "You are loyal to His Majesty. Now you are just helping the Crown Prince. If His Majesty wants to summon you, you must know who is your master."

That was the secret advice given by Eunuch Cao during the heart-to-heart talk between master and disciple before his death.

The Crown Prince is now the regent, but Eunuch Cao is still loyal to Your Majesty and has never betrayed him.

Old Emperor Yu also knew about the strange man's affairs, but he handed them over to the Crown Prince to handle. The Crown Prince's performance was too miraculous, could it be that he didn't have any doubts?
He is powerless to manage?

Or maybe he just doesn't care?
"This time, the Great Fortune Mirror was passed to everyone, which also revealed something strange. It seems that Emperor Yu intends for us to fight, including the princess."

Li Yi felt strange. Could it be that Emperor Yu saw through Li Changle's concealment?
Are we really allowing the emergence of a queen?

"Your Highness, it's time to eat." Xiao Xuanzi came in with breakfast.

"Put it down, Le Su, and serve His Highness the meal." Li Yi smiled and said, "Xiao Xuanzi, do you have a new singing girl?"

"Your Highness, a group of new people have just arrived in the palace. One of them is an expert in playing the musical instrument, is extremely beautiful, and has an excellent dancing posture." Xiao Xuanzi said hurriedly.

"Then it's her." Li Yi looked expectant.

"I'll arrange it right away." Xiao Xuanzi took the order and left.

Le Su whispered, "The person Xiao Xuanzi mentioned is problematic. He was brought into the palace by the Seventh Prince and was originally intended to be presented to His Majesty, but was suppressed by the Crown Prince."

"What did the prince find out?"

"There's nothing unusual about this. A weak woman like me was able to enter the capital. It was a coincidence that the Seventh Prince met her."

"That's a problem, but it doesn't matter. With you by my side, I can't look down on other women."
