The fake prince was exposed at the beginning, and I took office as emperor on the spot

Chapter 42 Lotus in the Womb
Gu Yuye had placed a secret agent next to the Sixth Prince three years ago, who had been lurking in the Prince's mansion as an aide.

Over the past three years, this hidden chess piece gradually gained the trust of the Sixth Prince and became one of his closest subordinates.

Every hidden chess piece that Gu Yuye can use now has been cultivated with great care to ensure the absolute purity of their loyalty and background.

The fact that it can be used is a testament to the huge amount of effort that went into it.

Once activated, Gu Yuye must ensure that the hidden chess piece can play the greatest role.

Originally, for such an important character as the Sixth Prince Xiao Yi, the hidden pawns planted around him would naturally be used at more critical moments.

It is very likely that it will become the key to a comeback in a certain game.

But now, he had to expose this hidden chess piece in advance in order to deal with Gu Fangchen.

If this hidden chess piece is used within the imperial city, it is equivalent to self-destruction.

For Gu Yuye, all the years of hard work he had put into this situation were wasted just to resolve the variable of Gu Fangchen. It was really not worth it...

But he had to do it.

If it was just the original Gu Fangchen, even if he became a variable, Gu Yuye still felt that there was nothing to be afraid of. This was the abandoned child he created with his own hands, and no one knew how to destroy Gu Fangchen better than him.

But after a series of accidents, Gu Yuye's habitual blind self-confidence was broken, and his mentality changed.

Gu Yuye's complete control and suppression of Gu Fangchen for 19 years created a psychological cage for Gu Fangchen, but it was also a psychological cage for Gu Yuye himself.

Because of inertial thinking, he made too many mistakes.

It was not until recently that he finally discovered that the person standing opposite him was no longer the abandoned piece, but another chess player!
"Your Majesty, instead of taking care of your own family affairs, you are interfering with the sacred objects of our Tara religion. How rare!"

Behind the white curtain, no emotion could be heard in Princess Prajna's lazy and cold female voice.

"While family matters are certainly important, for the sake of the people of the world, they can be put aside for now."

Gu Yuye stood with his hands behind his back and spoke slowly:
"Five hundred years ago, Kong Zhao, the sixth-generation saint of the Tara sect, was bewitched by the demonic cult 'Life Path' and apostatized from the sect. She took away the 'Lotus Treasure in the Womb'. The whereabouts of this sacred object, said to be able to cleanse the root of the body, have been unknown. This led to the decline of the Tara sect, and it almost collapsed."

"But Kong Zhao is actually a descendant of the Peacock Clan... As everyone knows, the Buddha Goddess of Salvation worshipped by the Tara religion is, according to legend, the Peacock Tara, who swallowed Sakyamuni and gave birth to him again, achieving her golden body through great suffering and great merit."

"According to the Tara religion, the Peacock Tara's attainment is the highest in the world, far higher than that of Sakyamuni."

"Shakyamuni, grateful for her kindness, volunteered to serve at the feet of the Bodhisattva of Salvation, demonstrating to her the sufferings of the world. He was the Tathagata of Heavenly Drum Sound."

"The so-called 'Lotus in the Womb' is the treasure lotus that was manifested by the great merit of the Buddha Mother when she gave birth to the Tathagata."

"The Galan Monastery worships Sakyamuni and reveres him as the Buddha. Naturally, they denounce the Tara religion as slanderous. This is how the dispute over the Buddhist orthodoxy began."

Princess Prajna said calmly:
"Everyone knows these things. Could it be that the King of Zhenbei is talking about the people of the world, but in fact he is here to chat with me?"

As a saint of the Tara religion, how could she not know what Gu Yuye said?

To her, this was just like chatting about family matters.

Princess Prajna couldn't help but frown. Simply arguing was not the style of a military saint.

Her heart sank. The more Gu Yuye acted like this, the more it showed that he was very confident about what was going to happen next.

Or about the "Lotus Hidden in the Womb"...

"Princess Prajna is not wrong. This is indeed a common occurrence."

Gu Yuye smiled and continued:
"After Kong Zhao took the 'Lotus Treasure in the Womb', her bloodline merged with it again. She finally came to her senses, but it was too late. To preserve the sacred object, she had no choice but to commit suicide and reenter the cycle of reincarnation."

The smile on King Zhenbei's face was quite strange, and he said softly, word by word:
"The sixth generation of the Holy Maiden of the Tara sect, the only descendant of the Peacock branch, her reincarnation—"

"It is my little girl, Gu Lianxian."

……

Gu Fangchen walked past Xiao Yi and headed towards the palace. However, the Sixth Prince, who had been against him for over a decade, clearly still couldn't accept this reality. He froze in place for a moment, then dropped his sword and chased after him.

A faint cross-shaped mark flashed on the sword he threw on the ground, and then disappeared.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Xiao Yi jumped up and down, eyes wide open:

"Are you hiding some magical weapon on your body that I can't see? Despicable! Shameless!"

Gu Fangchen continued walking and said calmly:
"Then you, holding a sixth-grade sword, attack an innocent person who you consider to be uncultivated and unarmed. Isn't that despicable and shameless?"

The sword has the strength of the sixth grade. If it is in the hands of a normal eighth-grade warrior, it will be like cutting melons or chopping vegetables when dealing with weapons below the seventh grade.

But Xiao Yi was not well-trained, and his moves were fancy, completely following the sword manual.

It can be said that it was a real fixed move just like an NPC in a game, and Gu Fangchen saw the flaw at a glance.

Of course, this is not unconditional.

If he had the same physical condition as before, even if he could see it, he would not be able to make a move.

However, his current body, in terms of physical strength, has reached the peak of the seventh level. With his rich experience in carrying boards, fighting against Xiao Yi at this level is like fighting a child.

This was the first time Gu Fangchen used his own strength, and he was very satisfied with the results.

At least it proves that the combat experience in the game can also be applied in reality.

For example, just by looking at the move that Xiao Yi made, he could immediately tell which sword manual it came from, which move and style, and he could even tell which page it was on.

Basically, it's the same as Wang Yuyan.

At the same time, Gu Fangchen also discovered that someone had set a teleportation coordinate on the sword.

When he touched the sword, the teleportation coordinates hit him.

This is a measurement technique, which means that the Demon Cult is behind this...

There is no doubt that this must be a member of the evil sect that Gu Yuye has been in contact with.

Xiao Yi blushed, then reacted and said with his neck stiff:
"I'm despicable? How dare you say you're not colluding with the Demon Cult?!"

Gu Fangchen remained calm:
"Of course not."

How could he collude with the evil cult?

He's now one of the leaders of the Demon Cult... Can this be called collusion? The Demon Cult is all his subordinates!
Seeing that he was so confident, Xiao Yi suddenly became speechless. Thinking of what he had just said, he felt a little guilty.

He had originally acted on impulse, and now that he realized something was wrong, he naturally discovered the problem quickly.

If it was really as Gu Fangchen said, then the sword he just struck...

Wasn't it a big disaster?
He looked at Xiao Qiu eagerly, but Xiao Qiu shook his head and explained helplessly:
"This is a long story. Your Highness, why don't you listen to me slowly later? The Emperor is still waiting for His Highness the Crown Prince in the Purple Palace."

Spicy balls!

When Xiao Yi heard his words, he knew that things were serious.

Xiao Qiu actually called Gu Fangchen "Prince", which means that not only was he not convicted, but even his identity was not stripped!

ps: I ordered a bowl of slightly spicy rice noodles for dinner, but I didn’t expect it to be slightly spicy like Jiangxi… It’s been so spicy until now, I feel a little exhausted
