Chapter 1692 Argument in Court

If you desire to ascend to the supreme throne, you must abandon the fear of death.

Because those who fear death are not worthy of pursuing such power and status!

At this moment, her gaze was as sharp as a cold sword, so cold that it made people shudder, and her determination seemed to be able to condense the air around her into ice in an instant.

Then, her gaze slowly turned to the other princes present.

The expressions of these princes were different. Some had gloomy faces, as if a storm was brewing in their hearts; some were terrified and uneasy, obviously frightened by the current situation and didn't know what to do; others tried to remain calm on the surface, but their slightly trembling hands betrayed their true emotions.

Judging from the seating arrangement, none of the positions occupied by these princes are core positions. In this chess game full of political intrigues and calculations, they are like marginalized and dispensable chess pieces.

Now, after the Supreme Emperor used his own strength to clear the obstacles for the Emperor, these princes have lost the capital and confidence to compete with the current Emperor.

Ye Zifen stood silently at one side, her brows furrowed, her eyes fixed on the scenes happening before her, and she seemed immersed in deep thought.

Her mood was like a mixture of mixed feelings, difficult to tell - she really couldn't decide whether the emperor's move was a blessing or a curse.

Just as her thoughts were drifting, she saw that the Prime Minister had already submitted the memorial that needed to be discussed in the court today.

In an instant, the court was like a boiling pot, with ministers expressing their opinions one after another. Fierce arguments were heard one after another, and the scene was in chaos.

Looking back at the court of yesterday, it was still Ye Zifen’s stage. At that time, she was full of energy and in control of the overall situation.

However, today, when she witnessed the noisy scene in front of her, which was as bustling as a vegetable market, she was shocked to realize that these court officials who seemed to be righteous on weekdays could be even more lively than those country women when they started arguing.

Some ministers blushed and shouted at the top of their lungs; others danced and jumped, so excited that they could hardly control themselves.

Faced with such an unfamiliar and confusing situation, Ye Zifen chose to stand aside and watch for the time being.

She stood quietly by the side, her eyes slowly sweeping over everyone present.

Although she did not speak up to participate at this moment, the great military exploits she achieved yesterday made everyone in the court feel fearful.

Whenever a minister stood up to speak, he would involuntarily cast a quick glance in Ye Zifen's direction.

There was a clear hint of vigilance in his eyes, as if he was afraid that he would accidentally come into conflict with this person who dared to offend even the emperor.

They looked so cautious, as if they were afraid of a ferocious beast lying in wait, ready to pounce at any time.

After all, how could they not be afraid of someone like Ye Zifen who dared to openly disobey the emperor's will?

So much so that their originally high-pitched voices unconsciously gradually lowered, and even their body movements were no longer as unrestrained as before, but became restrained and restrained.

Whenever they started talking, those eyes would always glance in the direction of Ye Zifen involuntarily.

Each time the gaze stays, it is very brief, but the emotions contained therein are complex and changeable.

It was a bit like exploring an unknown mystery, full of curiosity and questions; at the same time, there was an elusive look of doubt, as if he was puzzled as to what secrets Ye Zifen was hiding.

However, whenever this gaze was about to touch Ye Zifen, it would be retracted abruptly as if by an electric shock, so fast that it was almost imperceptible.

Despite this, Ye Zifen was still keenly aware of this subtle change.

However, she chose to remain calm and still stood firmly behind the prime minister, like an indestructible mountain, quietly listening to the discussion among the crowd.

She has a tall and straight figure, and exudes a dignified and elegant temperament.

That beautiful face was as calm as water, without the slightest ripple, as if it was a perfect sculpture carefully carved by a skilled craftsman, which made people stare at it sideways.

The atmosphere in the court today is particularly harmonious.

The reason is simple, it's because several princes have just been canonized as princes and are busy adapting to the various affairs that come with their new identities and have no time to cause trouble.

As a result, the ministers were able to speak freely and express their views and opinions on major state affairs.

For a moment, various opinions intertwined and collided with each other, and voices rose and fell, making it very lively.

In this way, the two sides argued back and forth.

Finally, after careful consideration, the emperor finally made a decision and finalized the several things that had made him hesitant.

He waved his hand and said in a majestic and decisive voice: "Just as I say, this matter is settled!"

Following the emperor's order, the entire court suddenly fell silent, and everyone bowed their heads respectfully to show that they would follow the emperor's will.

When the court was dismissed, Ye Zifen, who always followed the prime minister closely, behaved out of character today.

She walked slowly to the prime minister's side with her lotus steps, opened her red lips, greeted the prime minister in a soft and gentle voice, and briefly explained where she was going next.

After she finished speaking, she no longer hesitated, turned around lightly, and walked quickly towards the emperor's bedroom like a dancing butterfly.

Her hurried steps brought up a breeze, blowing her gorgeous dress, making her clothes flutter, as if a fairy descended to earth.

The prime minister stared quietly at the eldest princess who was walking away, with a complex expression in his eyes.

There was a look of confusion in his eyes, as if he was bewildered by Ye Zifen's unusual behavior; there was also a hint of worry, as if he was afraid that she would encounter some accident; and perhaps there was some indescribable admiration hidden deep in his heart.

However, these emotions only flashed through his mind, and the prime minister quickly came to his senses, realizing that there were still many matters that needed to be dealt with.

So he shook his head gently, as if trying to get rid of all those chaotic thoughts out of his mind.

Then, he turned around resolutely, took steady and powerful steps, and strode in the opposite direction of Ye Zifen.

At this moment, the brilliant sunshine poured down like a golden waterfall, shining on the glittering golden floor tiles of the court, refracting dazzling rays of light, like broken gold all over the ground.

However, as the ministers dispersed one after another, the splendor was gradually replaced by silence. Only the empty court and the gold bricks that still shone with a faint light silently witnessed what had just happened.
