With the Supreme Emperor around, even if the eldest prince ascended to the Supreme seat, he wouldn't strike against his own brothers.
But under such circumstances, he would inevitably be appointed king and sent away from the Imperial City, never to return in his lifetime.
Now, with Zhao Yanran offering herself as a bargaining chip, along with the support of the Zhao Family from Lingyan Pavilion, it was essentially a dramatic turnaround.
Zhao Yu Yan was naturally gifted, and her beauty was unmatched.

His incredible aptitude and his Void Spirit Fruit were his greatest bargaining chips.
The complete loss of his forces didn't matter; with a word from his Imperial Father, he would have it all.
