Faced with the Emperor's obstinacy, some even brought up a prophecy coined by the guiding mentor during his late years of Emperor Taizong's reign: "When the Tang is weak, a female warrior will command the king." This prophecy was referring precisely to Wu Zhaoyi.
After this prophecy, the whole matter was stalled indefinitely. Even the Emperor could not ignore it as it contradicted the general trend.
However, when everyone thought the matter would end there, Wu Zhaoyi stepped forward, asserting that since the prophecy pertained to her, she would willingly abandon her Martial Arts foundation, proving her resolution.
In this world where Martial Arts thrive, even the ruler of the imperial court is not necessarily required to possess absolute power, but they must not be too weak either.
