The night is getting deeper and deeper, and the lights in the court are still bright.
Huang Shenyue and Yan Weizhao will gradually show their true colors and hidden plots in this contest without smoke.
The queen ended the lengthy meeting and waved everyone to step down.
In the resplendent palace, ministers bowed and excused themselves, leaving with their own thoughts.
Huang Shenyue was slowly descending the stairs, ready to leave the palace, when the Nine Emperors suddenly came forward, blocking his way.
At this moment, with a sarcastic face, she said to Huang Shenyue: "Huang Shenyue, you are really more and more overreaching. A man should teach his wife and daughter, and keep his duty, instead of interfering in state affairs. Who do you think you are? It's just a small courtier who dares to talk nonsense in court. "
Hearing these harsh words, Huang Shen-yue felt unhappy in her heart, but remained calm on her face.
He knew that arguing with the nine emperors would only get him into deeper trouble.
Therefore, he chose silence and did not respond to the sarcasm of the nine emperors.
King Lan came forward and stood between Huang Shenyue and Jiuhuang's daughter. He said with a heavy voice, "Jiuhuang's sister, you have gone too far. Huang Shenyue devoted himself to his country and did his duty. His talent and ability are obvious to all in the imperial court. Men can also be ambitious, why should they be limited to teaching their wives? "
Yan Weizhao listened to the words of the king of Lan, and his face sank. She turned to look at the king of Lan and sneered, "King of Lan, don't be so hypocritical here. Don't think that I don't know your mind. Don't you just want to win over Huang Shenyue to consolidate your position? It's ridiculous. " Lan Wang turned pale with anger by the words of the nine emperors, but she still tried to keep calm and did not quarrel with the nine emperors.
Huang Shenyue stood by, silently watching all this.
He has made up his mind in his heart that he must never hand over the throne to nine imperial daughters.
Huang Shenyue watched Yan Weizhao's distant back, and his heart was full of confusion and incomprehension.
He recalled seeing Yan Weizhao, the daughter of the Nine Emperors, when he was young. At that time, she was like a bright pearl, with both talent and appearance, intelligence and brilliance, which was unforgettable at first sight.
However, time flies, time flies. When Huang Shenyue saw Jiuhuang's daughter again, she found that she had become overbearing and totally different from the gentle and intelligent woman when she was a child.
He couldn't help feeling heartbroken and disappointed, and didn't understand why the nine emperors and daughters became like this.
He knows that the present nine emperors' daughters are overbearing and only know how to have fun, and they simply don't have the wisdom and mind that a king should have.
Although Lan Wang has a deep friendship with the Huang family, he can't fully trust him.
However, Yan Weizhao was his after all, and he thought that the cold in the fundus was fading away.
Lan Wang saw Huang Shen-yue's indifference and strangeness, and his heart moved, feeling that this was a rare opportunity. He is well aware of Huang Shenyue's influence and talent in the imperial court. If he can get his support, he will undoubtedly greatly increase his strength.
Then, the king of Lan sighed and said gently, "Huang Shenyue, I know you are confused about the change of the nine emperors' daughters. But in the imperial court, power struggles are everywhere, and everyone is fighting for their own positions and interests. You and I are people of insight, so we should see the situation clearly and stand on the right side. "
Huang Shenyue heard this, and his eyebrows slightly wrinkled. He didn't want to involve the Huang family in the power struggle in the court, but it was not up to him.
He shirked, "King Lan, the whole Fu Huang appreciates your highness's attention, but the Huang family does not participate in any factional strife. The duty of the Huang family is to assist the queen and be loyal to the court, not to stand in line. "
Lan Wang listened to Huang Shenyue's words. Although he was disappointed, he also understood his position. She knows that it is not easy to persuade Huang Shenyue, and it takes more time and effort.
So the king of Lan turned to say, "Take care, Huang Gongzi."
Huang Shen Yue nodded, feeling a little uneasy.
