"This Zhao Gao actually dared to doze off in the main hall. Isn't he afraid that His Majesty will sentence him to death?”
the snow maiden asked curiously.
Ying Wuying smiled when he saw her innocent look.
"Father still needs him. After killing Zhao Gao, we won't be able to find anyone to replace him.”
As for the answer he gave in the hall today, Ying Zheng felt that his hands and feet were somewhat tied.
However, how could Ying Zheng not be restrained by the alliance?
"Your Highness, according to my speculation, Zhao Gao will continue to be tortured by the Eight Sounds of the Heavenly Dragon for the next few days.”
"I'm afraid that Zhao Gao will have to stand and sleep in the hall for the next few days.”
The snow maidens were so happy that their eyes lit up after receiving Ying Wuying's praise.
"I heard that only horses sleep standing up.”。
Yan Lingji covered her mouth and laughed.
"Who asked him to go against Young Master? He is destined to have a bad ending.”
the snow maiden said coldly.
The three of them laughed.
……
The next day, the princes waited in front of the hall in advance, just like yesterday.
"Ninth Brother isn't here yet."
The Tenth Prince looked at the people in the line, but Ying Wuying was nowhere to be seen.
"Hmph, what does it matter if a useless person comes or not?”
Hearing Ying Wuying's name, Huhai snorted disdainfully.
"Eighteenth brother, don't say that."
However, Fu Su had a different reaction.
He thought of the analysis that Xun Zi, Zhang Liang, and the others had given him yesterday. He felt that Ying Wuying was not as simple as he seemed.
"Ninth brother seems to be cynical, but in fact, he is very wise.”
"His understanding of things far surpasses ours.”
Fu Su had only reminded Huhai out of goodwill, but he didn't expect Huhai to think that Fu Su was trying to win Ying Wuying over.
The sneer on his face grew even more intense.
"There's no need for big brother to worry about this. No matter what, this little brother still has a pair of eyes.”
Even his master, Zhao Gao, had said that Ying Wuying was just a good-for-nothing who enjoyed pleasure. What was there to be afraid of?
Seeing Huhai's nonchalant expression, Fu Su sighed and did not say anything.
……
It was already noon. After the summoned chamberlain walked out of the hall and signaled for the princes and ministers to enter.
The princes led by Fu Su and the officials led by Li Si entered the hall in an orderly manner.
Ying Zheng was still sitting on the dragon throne, looking at the princes with a dignified gaze.
The Sword Saint of Great Qin, Ge Nia, and the Moon Goddess of the Yin-Yang School stood on both sides of Ying Zheng.
These two people represented the peak of Great Qin's sword and arts.
With the two of them around, even if a peak martial grandmaster came personally, they could still fight.
"Hmm?"
Ying Zheng swept his gaze across the princes.
"Shadowless isn't here?"
Compared to yesterday, after everyone had taken their seats, they realized that Ying Zheng was missing one person.
Today, she could tell that Ying Wuying had not arrived yet.
Ying Zheng, who was about to announce an important piece of news to everyone, frowned slightly.
This news was closely related to Ying Wuying, so he naturally had to wait for Ying Wuying to be around before he could release it.
But now, Ying Wuying was not here, which made Ying Zheng's words stuck in his throat.
And Ying Zheng's reaction was seen by those who did not know anything about it.
He thought that it was Ying Zheng's dissatisfaction with Ying Wuying.
"Humph, you didn't even take father's summons seriously. I think Ying Wuying is really bold!”
Huhai glanced at Zhao Gao, who was still dozing off in the corner.
It was no different from yesterday, and he immediately became anxious again.
Hearing Ying Zheng mention Ying Wuying, Huhai still had the resentment he had towards Ying Wuying yesterday.
He immediately mocked her without thinking.
Chunyu Yue also spoke in a strange tone.
"A gentleman should keep his word. How can a person who can't even be punctual become a monarch?”
Chunyu Yue and Huhai exchanged a glance.
Taking advantage of Ying Wuying's absence, he started to belittle them.
She did not notice that Ying Zheng's eyes were gradually turning cold.
Fu Su's face turned pale as he glanced at Chunyu Yue and Huhai, who were still courting death.
He didn't know what to do.
"Young master Huhai, Doctor Chun Yu doesn't need to be so anxious.”
In the end, Ge Nia couldn't bear to listen to these two people's slander.
His gaze swept across the two of them with a hint of coldness.
"His Majesty said that we will look at the Golden Roll at noon, but it hasn't been noon yet.”
"Then you can't be considered late.”
As soon as Ge Nia spoke, a small discussion broke out among the officials.
Many people were puzzled. After all, this was the first time they had heard Ge Nia speak up for someone.
Even the Moon Goddess glanced at Ge Nia.
Huhai snorted coldly.
"But it's almost noon, and Ying Wuying hasn't shown up yet…"
Before he finished speaking, he saw a figure walk into the hall at noon.
"Your son greets father."
Ying Wuying said.
“……”
The hall was silent.
Huhai's face was as red as a cooked shrimp.
The ministers were speechless.
Was this Ninth Young Master a timer? He actually arrived at the right time to attend the court meeting!
Ying Zheng took a glance at his son, and a look of helplessness and fondness flashed across his eyes.
Ying Wuying didn't care about this. However, when he bowed and was about to go to his seat…
"Shadowless, sit there."
Ying Zheng stopped Ying Wuying and pointed at a certain place.
All the princes looked in the direction where Ying Zheng was pointing, and their hearts skipped a beat.
That seat was actually opposite the Eldest Young Master's seat.
So far, they were the two princes who were closest to Ying Zheng.
Ying Wuying was ranked ninth, but he was able to sit in this position.
It was self-evident how much Ying Zheng valued him.
For a moment, everyone in the hall had different expressions.
The Moon Goddess, who had been recovering from her injuries yesterday and had only returned to the palace today, looked at Ying Wuying with surprise.
She also had some understanding of these princes.
Ying Zheng loved his eldest son Fusu and his eighteenth son Huhai the most.
However, even Huhai was not able to sit on the same level as Fu Su.
It meant that in Ying Zheng's heart, his favorite successor was still the Eldest Young Master, Fu Su.
However, Ying Zheng let Ying Wuying sit on the seat opposite Fu Su.
Amongst them…
Yueshen thought to herself and subconsciously glanced at Ge Nia.
Ge Nia's eyes also revealed a hint of surprise, but he quickly calmed down.
Yueshen knew that it was most likely because she had not entered the palace yesterday due to her injuries.
What happened in the palace?
That was why Ying Zheng treated Ying Wuying differently.
When Fu Su heard Ying Zheng's words, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, but it quickly disappeared.
He lowered his head as if nothing had happened.
However, his face seemed a little tense.
Huhai's eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred. He looked at Ying Wuying with eyes that were about to spew fire.
Ying Wuying raised his eyebrows after he heard the news.
He took a glance at Ying Zheng and found that Ying Zheng was also looking at him, as if waiting for his reaction.
Ying Wuying's lips curled up, but he didn't refuse.
"Yes, your son thanks Imperial Father for bestowing him a seat."
Ying Wuying waved his sleeve and was about to sit down.
"Your Majesty, you can't, you can't!”
He saw that Ying Zheng had specially given Ying Wuying a seat.
Chunyu Yue, who felt a strong sense of danger, immediately tried to stop him!
