Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace Chapter 325 325: 323 Invincible individual within the Great

Youzhou.

Ever since hearing about Xiao Yunqi's coup, Zhao Jiang was so excited that he couldn't sleep.

It was truly exhilarating.

Far beyond his expectations.

Originally, Zhao Jiang suggested the state governor system, allowing him to openly develop his own military, strengthen his power, and then, when the Imperial Court was unable to suppress the rebellion, decisively take action and gradually replace the central authority.

But he never imagined that the opportunity would co so quickly.

One could even say it was truly divine intervention.

Therefore, he directly contacted the various vassal princes, intending to march to the capital to support the court.

Not only that, he also had his advisors draft a declaration of war against the rebels, to be announced throughout the realm.

And personally wrote a letter to be sent to Hulao Pass with trusted ssengers.

Although he didn't know why the Grand Princess was assigned to defend that remote hardship of Hulao Pass.

But when the Late Emperor confined Crown Prince Zhao Ji, suddenly relieved the Grand Princess of her military powers.

Zhao Jiang knew that there must be sothing peculiar going on.

The Grand Princess was remarkably talented; within a few years at Hulao Pass, she had taken command of the Great Song's most formidable Celestial Dragon Army.

Later, as dostic rebellions arose, Zhao Ji once asked the Grand Princess to send troops to help, but she refused, citing an attack by the Desolate Kingdom and the need to secure Hulao Pass.

On several subsequent occasions, the Grand Princess also disobeyed the orders of the Imperial Court.

This led Zhao Jiang to speculate that a rift had developed between Zhao Ji and the Grand Princess, a rift related to Zhao Ji's confinent.

And this rift was initiated by Zhao Ji.

So, leveraging this, if Zhao Jiang could gain the Grand Princess's support, half the battle would be won.

...

Jizhou.

Julu.

The matters in the capital had naturally reached Zhang Jiao's ears, inducing in him a feeling of divine fortune, as well.

After all, with the establishnt of the state governor system, it posed a certain threat to the Yellow Turban Army, detrintal to their developnt.

Moreover, the Black Shadow seed to start distancing themselves from them, causing Zhang Jiao to sll a whiff of trouble.

But now, it was different; Xiao Yunqi's coup, the enthronent of a new emperor, left everything unstable.

They have no ti to deal with them, so there is ample ti for them to expand.

Zhang Jiao had already sent people to liaise with the Wudoumi Sect in Jiangnan, both being rebel forces, making it entirely possible to unite and confront the Imperial Court together at this ti.

...

The Fifty-Seventh Day of the Great Turmoil.

Bianliang City was engulfed in dead silence.

Because the declaration of war against the rebels issued by King Yan had reached the capital.

The proclamation listed the five major traitors.

Leader of the Rebels Xiao Yunqi.

Followed by Xiao Teng, Shi Si, Hu i'Er.

Chen Hong, also known as Chen Mo, was also listed.

Five princes had already responded, ready to enter the capital to support the court at any mont.

For a ti, Xiao Yunqi dispatched nurous scouts to Youzhou to monitor King Yan's military actions.

anwhile, Chen Mo was drilling his troops on the training grounds; having beco the Deputy Commander of the Infantry Division, his forces had swelled to thirty thousand.

Among them, twenty thousand were forrly the Imperial Guard under Gao Qiu.

Chen Mo needed to integrate them swiftly and ensure that this thirty-thousand strong army could hone their battle array skills in the shortest ti possible.

Soon enough, they would be dispatched to the front lines.

In recent days, Chen Mo, through simulations, had advanced his ntal Realm to the pinnacle of the Celestial Realm.

Simultaneously, his Martial Arts Realm had reached the peak of First Grade.

It wasn't arrogance.

In a one-on-one situation, in the entire Great Song Imperial Dynasty, he was invincible.

He even sensed the so-called "Celestial Tribulation."

Yet he chose not to trigger it, because once the Celestial Tribulation was passed, his realm would naturally reach Foundation Establishnt.

By then, he would have to leave the Canglan Continent.

Therefore, he chose to cease cultivation, halting his progress here, and would only make the breakthrough after current matters were settled.

...

On the other side.

Xiao Yunqi sought out Xiao Yunxi to discuss Zhao Fujin.

"I intend to betroth Fujin to the Wu Family's Wu Chang'an. Yunxi, what do you think?" Xiao Yunqi said, "Back then, when the Supre Emperor was in power, he had the sa intention."

However, at that ti, it was Zhao Ji who needed the Wu Family's support.

But now, Xiao Yunqi needed to draw the Wu Family in.

And a marriage alliance was undoubtedly one of the best thods.

Xiao Yunxi was about to refuse, for after all, Fujin had ntioned before that she did not like Wu Chang'an.

However, she had always felt there was sothing peculiar between Fujin and Chen Mo.

Therefore, marrying Fujin to Wu Chang'an might be the best solution to this problem.

Xiao Yunxi nodded, "I have looked into that Wu Chang'an boy; he is quite good. Marrying Fujin to him, she will certainly not be aggrieved.

However..."

"However what?" Xiao Yunqi frowned.

"Does father still rember General Chen Hong's brother, Chen Mo?" Xiao Yunxi asked.

"I rember; what about him?"

"His brother is not yet married, and his brother has imnse potential. Back in Nanyang, he was able to kill Second Grade Zhang Ping, hence I am thinking of tying the knot with him as well." Xiao Yunxi said, "I found out that the Wu Family also has an unmarried legitimate daughter of the right age. If she could marry Chen Mo, wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"This..." After hearing this, Xiao Yunqi hesitated.

The so-called well-matched alliance.

Although Chen Hong now had both status and position, his humble origins and having served in the palace as a eunuch, which of the seven great noble families would marry their legitimate daughters to the brother of a eunuch, and still keep face?

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate." Xiao Yunqi said.

Despite his deep regard for Chen Hong, he still disdained his background.

"Whose ancestors were born superior? It's not through generations of hard work that they beca what is now called the noble family.

Moreover, Chen Hong is the direct disciple of the State Preceptor, a fellow disciple of Fujin, so if the matter with Chen Mo succeeds, perhaps it might assist in the matters between Fujin and Wu Chang'an." Xiao Yunxi argued.

"Chen Hong is the direct disciple of the State Preceptor?" Xiao Yunqi's eyes widened significantly; wasn't Chen Hong rely a disciple of the Shenxiao Sect who received the State Preceptor's teachings every night? How did he beco her disciple?

"Fujin is the one who told this." Xiao Yunxi said.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunqi pondered for a mont, then muttered, "I will try for your father's sake."

...

On the other side.

With the introduction of tofu, youtiao, tofu pudding, braised pork, cold noodles, and other items considered novel by the citizens of the Great Song, the Hongfu Hotels in Bianliang were nearly always packed daily.

The most critical aspect was that the prices of these items were not high, allowing common people to co in and purchase them to try.

Therefore, with the word of mouth among the populace, Hongfu Hotels were raking in money by the day.

Outside Bianliang City, by Haiqing Lake, loud explosions could be heard from ti to ti every day.

Since the mountain bandits in this area had been pacified, Chen Mo had the place transford into his munitions factory, conducting research and mass production of Fire Bottle Bombs.

With significant financial and resource investnt, the research and developnt of Fire Bottle Bombs progressed smoothly, even setting up a production line.
