Seemingly no. It even was politically employed to build a narrative that Charlemagne was providentially gifted power. Paul Kershaw writes in his Peaceful Kings that, "Cathwulf, writing around 775, several after Charlemagne had assumed sole rule of the Franks, enumerated the signs of Charlemagne's blessedness and implicitly his legitimacy, placing considerable emphasis upon the apparent absence of violence that accompanied his rise to power." (p.138)

Cathawulf writes in a letter (Monumenta Germaniae Historica, Epitolae IV, 502) "non minimum est beaudinis signum, quod Deus transtultit illum de regno ad alterumet exaltavit te super omne hoc regnum sine sanguinis effusione". notice the emphasis on the lack of bloodshed in God granting Charlemagne the sole rule.
