Yi Feng once again experienced the Third Prince's ruthlessness. With the Sacred Dragon Token in hand, he controlled the entire imperial palace very quickly. He directly led people to charge into the First Prince and Second Prince's mother's chambers and beheaded the two princes' mothers in public. Even those servant girls and eunuchs were not spared.
And those concubines who were originally closer to the two imperial concubines also did not escape the Third Prince's vicious hands. For a moment, the entire imperial palace flowed with blood like a river.
At the same time, the Third Prince confiscated all of the two princes' residences in the name of eliminating rebels and traitors. The two princes' family members and servants were not spared. And the two princes' forces in the imperial capital back then were also completely uprooted by him.
The entire imperial capital flowed with blood everywhere. No one in the imperial capital dared to casually go out anymore. Even the cries of children were covered by their own parents.
The sounds of slaughter pervaded the entire imperial capital. Yi Feng did not participate in it. But Jin Lou used this opportunity to continuously strengthen. The two princes' forces were swallowed up by Yi Feng bit by bit.
After the Third Prince finished these massacres, he started to search for the two princes' crimes. Of course, the first one was regicide! The Third Prince threatened that the Azure Emperor would pass the throne to him. The Sacred Dragon Token was the evidence. But the two princes were dissatisfied and joined forces with the imperial family's Elder Sun to commit the act of regicide that angered both men and gods. And a reward was offered. As long as one could go to the head of the culprit and retrieve the imperial jade seal, one million gold and be conferred the title of duke!
From that day onwards, the entire imperial capital also changed. A new emperor, a new courtier. The entire imperial capital's power distribution completely changed. The original deep-rooted forces were quickly replaced by the rising aristocratic families.
Of course, as the Third Prince's greatest collaborator, Jin Lou practically obtained the most benefits. Since then, no aristocratic family's power could compare to Jin Lou. Queen Ziyin's name and the Third Prince's name resounded throughout the Imperial Capital.
Yi Feng did not manage Jin Lou's affairs. All of this was controlled by Zi Yin. Yi Feng had been in the palace all this time, listening to the Third Prince's subordinates report the latest situation to him every day.
The killing continued, and the Third Prince did not hide anything from Yi Feng. He asked about the news of the royal family.
What made the Third Prince fly into a rage was that he didn't expect Elder Sun's rallying power to be so great. With the imperial jade seal in his hand, he actually brought out half of the Imperial Family's power. Even Yi Feng understood how terrifying half of the Imperial Family's power was. From the fact that the Third Prince had an old man following behind him every day, Yi Feng could not sense the old man's strength. From this, it could be seen how unfathomable the Imperial Family was.
Yi Feng was very clear that back then, when the Azure Emperor said that it would be easy to kill him, if not for the threat of the Sacred Dragon Token, he would probably already be dead.
However, such a power had been taken away by Old Sun using the imperial jade seal. How could he not fly into a rage?
While Yi Feng was waiting, Yi Feng finally received news from the National Protector Sect. Without the Azure Emperor, the National Protector Sect was also in chaos at this time. The force led by Die Yunyu and the old force with the Imperial Family's bloodline clashed with each other.
Neither side gained any advantage. Die Yunyu's master and the current Sect Master of the National Protector Sect fought until both sides were injured.
When Yi Feng heard the news from the Imperial Family about the National Protector Sect, his heart tightened. He prayed for Die Yunyu in his heart. In the end, when Yi Feng heard that Die Yunyu cooperated with an expert in her force and killed the opponent's Venerable Stage expert. When the outcome was announced, Yi Feng heaved a sigh of relief.
Yi Feng also knew that this Venerable Stage expert's defeat was very strange. Yi Feng knew that Die Yunyu used poison needles. Only poison needles could make people feel strange and not see any traces.
As for the defeated party, they had also fled in defeat. Although Die Yunyu wanted to keep them all, this obviously did not show. In a short period of time, Die Yunyu also took over the National Protector Sect.
After Yi Feng received this news, he also heaved a sigh of relief. His series of plans did not fail after all. As long as she was safe, everything was enough.
The Third Prince was astonished when he received this news. He did not understand that the National Protector Sect, which had always been harmonious, would have internal strife. When he received this news, his heart ached. Although the Emperor could not control the National Protector Sect, he could still borrow it sometimes. At this time, he needed the help of strength the most.
However, what comforted the Third Prince was that Die Yunyu, who now took over the National Protector Sect, had an exceptionally good relationship with his mother. He also heaved a sigh of relief. At this time, although the National Protector Sect was not likely to help him because of the internal strife, they would not hinder him.
After Yi Feng received the news of Die Yunyu, he finally left the Imperial Palace. After returning to report to Qin Yi, Liu Mengran, and Zi Yin that he was safe, he went to the Cuilin Forest Pavilion again. Although the imperial capital was filled with killing at this time, the Cuilin Forest Pavilion was still so quiet. Unlike before, there was no one monitoring the Cuilin Forest Pavilion.
Yi Feng knew very well that Die Yunyu would definitely go to the Cuilin Forest Pavilion to wait for him after dealing with the matters in the sect. Although Yi Feng received the news that Die Yunyu was safe, he could not help but miss her.
This woman had probably suffered too much during this period of time.
…
The riot in the imperial capital lasted for more than a month before it gradually subsided. At this time, the Golden Tower had also expanded to an unimaginable extent. What surprised Yi Feng was that although the Shangguan Clan and the Yi Clan had shrunk by more than half, they still existed.
Yi Feng understood a little about the Yi Clan. The Third Prince had probably left it for him to deal with. After all, it was easy for Yi Feng to destroy the Yi Clan at this time.
However, Yi Feng did not understand the Shangguan Clan. Later on, Yi Feng found out that when the Third Prince was setting up, after using the Sacred Dragon Token, the Shangguan Clan stood on the Third Prince's side. Later on, they even cooperated with the Third Prince to destroy the forces that originally belonged to the two princes. Only then did the Third Prince not touch him!
However, even if the Third Prince did not destroy him. His forces had still shrunk by more than half. They no longer had the prestige of the three great clans of the past. In the entire imperial capital, apart from the established aristocratic clans that did not participate in the struggle, the remaining aristocratic clans had more or less changed their status.
Jade Forest Pavilion still only had Ah Xiu and a few maids. Ah Xiu and the other maids were Die Yunyu's trusted aides after all. Each and every one of them was not stupid people. Recalling the news that Yi Feng brought to Die Yunyu back then, Ah Xiu also understood that the imperial capital's weather changed so quickly, a large part of the reason was this man's plan in front of her.
Ah Xiu had always felt that their young miss following Yi Feng in the past made him very dissatisfied mentally. Because they felt that a figure like their young miss, how could Yi Feng be able to accompany her?
But after Yi Feng did all these, Ah Xiu and the rest's attitude towards Yi Feng also underwent an earth-shaking change. Yi Feng's kindness towards their young miss, they could already feel it.
Such a heaven-defying plan, a moment of carelessness and it would result in death, regardless of Yi Feng's other abilities. Just the fact that he was willing to sacrifice for their young miss made them view him in a new light.
Different from the past, when Yi Feng stepped into Jade Forest Pavilion again, Ah Xiu began to serve Yi Feng sincerely, with the intention of treating Yi Feng as a real young master.
