Seeing Master Huang's appearance, everyone was dumbfounded.

Master Huang was notoriously arrogant in the court on weekdays, he even gave them the right attention, only with Master Xu because of his brother-in-law, he had a little good looks towards Master Xu.

Mr. Huang was born in a poor family and has a weird temper, but he can achieve the position of Dali Temple Minister. His own ability is undeniable.

So, seeing Mr. Huang falling towards Xie Yan, everyone did not hesitate and saluted towards Xie Yan one after another.

Although they called Xie Yan "Your Highness", they kneeled three times and kowtowed nine times.

Seeing this scene, the emperor knew that the situation was over. He opened his eyes wide, looked at the beam above his head in a daze, and murmured: "How could this be?"

He has been calculating all his life, how could he be defeated by a kid who has not grown his hair yet?

He looked at Xie Yan, but saw that Xie Yan's handsome face was full of worry and anxiety - it was directed at Gu Ning.

"Ha ha ha ha!" The emperor suddenly laughed.

Xie Yan frowned slightly, Li Dehai immediately made a move, and as soon as he raised his hand, he took a piece of rag and blocked the emperor's mouth.

The emperor made a humming sound, and he kept struggling, but no one in the hall gave him any more glances, and they all stared at Xie Yan.

Until this time, some people also noticed that Xie Yan attached great importance to Gu Ning.

There are even some ministers who have already made other calculations at this time.

The new emperor is so young, if their daughter can enter the palace... wouldn't it be...

Master Xu also had the same idea.

However, when he dared to mention it to Master Huang, Master Huang sneered mercilessly: "I think you've lost your head."

Master Xu frowned in displeasure: "The little girl in the family looks first-class, not worse than the princess, not to mention her temper is much gentler than the princess. The emperor is so young, so he must like it..."

"Although Princess Changning has a bad temper, she is beautiful." Master Huang said quietly, "Compared to her, my niece's appearance is like candlelight and moonlight, nothing can compare to it!"

"Furthermore..." Master Huang sighed, "You have always been able to read words and deeds, can't you see our emperor's concern for Changning County Lord?"

"In the court today, when we were saluting, I could see clearly that the emperor didn't care about us at all. At that time, the emperor's eyes were glued to Princess Changning! Do you think our niece can enter the palace? Get the emperor's favor?"

Hearing Master Huang's words, Master Xu was still unconvinced, and said in a deep voice: "Princess Changning is behind the Pei family. As long as the emperor is not stupid, he will never let her be the queen."

"What if..." Master Huang immediately blocked back, "What if the emperor insists on letting Princess Changning be the queen? To put it bluntly, there are many beautiful noble ladies, and there are also many gentle-tempered noble ladies. Princess Changning alone dares to go to court with the imperial decree and jade seal alone! Also... I see Princess Changning's appearance today, it seems that she already knows the identity of our emperor! "

"In all fairness, our niece can't be so calm." Master Huang patted Master Xu on the shoulder, "You'd better give up on it!"

Hearing this, Master Xu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

But he had to admit Master Huang's words.

"You're right." Master Xu's voice was cold, "But it's about the future of the Xu family, so I still have to give it a try."

"Give it a try, don't do anything stupid." Master Huang replied immediately.

Mr. Xu glared at Mr. Huang, but Mr. Huang seemed not aware of it, and still said to himself: "We have also been colleagues with the emperor for a year and a half. I think you are also aware of the emperor's character. It's not as easy to be fooled as the previous one. If you just proposed to draft girls openly and aboveboard, that's all right. If you have some careless thoughts and actions that shouldn't be there, I'm afraid the emperor will... "

"I know." Master Xu said with a stinky face, "You don't need to remind me about these things!"

Master Huang smiled: "I'm afraid that you will go astray!"

"Did you see Mo Shangshu's face today?" Lord Huang said in a low voice, "I'm afraid he will regret it to death!"

Hearing this, Mr. Xu showed a sneer: "He must be remorseful. He sent his daughter to the palace and got nothing. On the contrary, he became the remnant of the abandoned emperor in the eyes of everyone! Now he should be thinking about getting married. How to please the emperor."

"The emperor is not easy to please." Master Huang shook his head, "But if he finds another way, maybe he can still have a chance."

After all, Mo Shangshu was just trying to find a way out, and he didn't do anything harmful.

While the two were talking, they suddenly saw a group of black armored cavalry rushing out of the imperial city.

Master Xu frowned: "These black knights are really..."

"Hush." ​​Master Huang immediately stopped Master Xu's remaining words, "The black knight is the emperor's confidant, it's not something you and I can comment on."

Suddenly, Master Huang stopped in his tracks.

Seeing this, Mr. Xu subconsciously looked towards where Mr. Huang was in his line of sight. Two figures that he was somewhat familiar with and yet somewhat unfamiliar were slowly appearing in front of him.

The group of black cavalry just now also stopped at this moment, dismounted respectfully and saluted the two of them.

It was Lu Shikai and Lu Yuanyou.

Master Xu and Master Huang looked at each other, without much hesitation, they strode forward and bowed their hands towards Lu Shikai.

"Lord Lu, this is..." Master Xu had a very clear goal, he stared at Lu Yuanyou several times, and felt that Lu Yuanyou was very familiar.

Lu Shikai stroked his beard and smiled: "Brother, Lu Yuanyou."

Hearing this, Master Xu was startled: "Back then..."

"It's just a fluke." Lu Shikai smiled slightly, "My younger brother took his life, and has been recuperating in Shu all these years."

Master Xu and Master Huang were both shocked.

Those of them who go to court every day and worry about national affairs, who doesn't know the name of Shu?The Shu rebels almost came to the south of the Yangtze River at the beginning.

And thinking that Lu Yuanyou had always been in Sichuan, the two looked at Lu Yuanyou with serious eyes.

I'm afraid this is the leader behind the Shu rebels.

Master Huang sighed with emotion: "The Lu family really has a lot of talents!"

If Lu Shikai was not feared by the emperor, with Lu Shikai's ability, at least he could be a tutor.

And although Lu Yuanyou doesn't have Lu Shikai's talent and learning, he can manage the Shu land in an orderly manner, and can make the soldiers and scoundrels in the Shu land look like this...

Seeing the high-spirited appearance of the black knights, Master Huang admired Lu Yuanyou even more.

Lu Yuanyou also benefited from such eyes, and the eyes he looked at Master Huang became more pleasing to the eye.

Master Xu stood aside, his eyes changed several times.

Lu Shikai had a panoramic view of all this and didn't say anything.

Now in the imperial court, Lord Huang and Lord Xu are the mainstays of the civil servants. If they can be made to submit to Xie Yan willingly, it will be more beneficial to Xie Yan in the future.

Therefore, when Lu Yuanyou boasted about his military exploits, it was rare for Lu Shikai not to stop him.

……

Outside the Imperial City.

Overnight, the land and mountains of Chu State changed their owners.

Hearing the name of the new emperor, many people were surprised.

"Chu Yan? Why have I never heard of this prince?"

"Aren't those princes killed by the emperor before? Which prince's son is this Chu Yan?"

"Do you still remember Prince Youde? He is the orphan of Prince Youde!"

There are similar remarks in the streets and alleys.

Hearing these people's words, Gu Qingqiu's eyes were full of eagerness.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Ruyan's face was slightly cold, and he warned: "You have to calm down! Now is not the time for you to do it!"

Hearing this, Gu Qingqiu took a deep breath, tentatively suppressing the murderous pressure in his heart.

It's just that after Xiao Ruyan caught a glimpse of the crimson under Gu Qingqiu's eyes, her heart sank. For a moment, she wasn't even sure of her cooperation with Gu Qingqiu.

Xiao Ruyan only hesitated for a moment, but Gu Qingqiu immediately noticed it.

She squinted her eyes and stared at Xiao Ruyan: "What? Do you want to go back on your word?"

As she spoke, a smile appeared on her face.

Just paired with Gu Qingqiu's thin and ferocious face, this smile looks extraordinarily terrifying.

Xiao Ruyan shuddered, and quickly reacted, scolding: "You threatened me? Don't forget, you want me to take you to Pei's mansion later!"

Gu Qingqiu narrowed his eyes: "Even without you, I can still find opportunities."

"I'm afraid there's no chance." When Xiao Ruyan mentioned this matter, his voice became gritted, "Three days later, the emperor will be enthroned, and the day of enthronement is the day when the emperor and Gu Ning get married!"

"At that time, Gu Ning has already lived in the impenetrable imperial city, can you still sneak in?" Xiao Ruyan sneered, "I'm afraid that you will be killed by the emperor before you get close to Gu Ning's body." The guards of the city shot into a sieve."

Hearing Xiao Ruyan's words, Gu Qingqiu's eyes became darker and crazier.

Xiao Ruyan's face was not much better either, she clenched her hands tightly and said word by word: "Gu Qingqiu, success or failure depends on one move, don't make mistakes! Otherwise, both of us will die! "

"Do you understand?" Xiao Ruyan said again viciously.

Gu Qingqiu came back to his senses, his gaze was level with Xiao Ruyan's.

"Don't worry." Gu Qingqiu's light voice came out, "I will definitely let you get what you want."

Xiao Ruyan nodded, and temporarily put her heart back in place: "This is not only my wish, but also your wish! Don't forget, the reason why you stayed is to get rid of Gu Ning Can you? You can't just watch her enjoy the glory and wealth while you die alone, can you?"

"I know." Gu Qingqiu nodded, walked in front of Xiao Ruyan.

Regarding Xiao Ruyan's words, she was already impatient to continue listening.

This guy Xiao Ruyan really regarded himself as an ignorant idiot, thinking that with these few words, he could coax himself into willingly doing things for her at the risk of danger.
