Canglan Empress

Chapter 372 The Dark Horse
The garden is well-maintained, all kinds of precious flowers bloom very well, and the fragrance permeates the tip of the nose, making people have the urge to cherish the flowers.

"The emperor is really kind to you." Wen Jinyan turned his eyes to admire the beautiful scenery in the garden, with a faint smile on his lips, "This garden has put a lot of thought into it."

"It's a matter for the Ministry of Rites to bother, the emperor is only responsible for giving orders." Xuanyin smiled lightly, "and His Majesty the Emperor thinks I'm needed."

Having said that, Xuanyin paused for a moment, then raised her eyes: "However, the current situation in the court has changed, and I feel that my existence is worthless."

This sentence is not an exclamation, but just a statement of fact.

"Why do you say that?" Wen Jinyan turned his eyes and looked at her gently, "Want to quit the court?"

"Actually, it doesn't matter to me where I am." Xuanyin shook her head, "I don't want to say it, status and power are not attractive to me, but it's not something that I can quit just because I want to. The reason why I do this General, there is a reason why you have to do it."

Huangfu Xuanyin became a general because of her mother and Yaohua.

And Di Xuanyin became the general because he took the place of Huangfu Xuanyin.

"In the past, the emperor wanted to use me because the factions of the empress and concubine Shu were too powerful, and he wanted to use me to balance the court." Having said this, Xuanyin smiled, "But it is no longer necessary now, Yaohua The appearance of this dark horse is enough to make His Majesty the emperor reassess the court."

During this period of time, Xuanyin has discovered that Yuan Wang and Xu Wang are not worthy of excessive fear, and they are the sons of Emperor Tiande, and Emperor Tiande should know their abilities better than anyone else.

What is dreadful is the family power behind Concubine Shu and the Empress.

Although Emperor Tiande had no intention of letting his relatives interfere in politics when he first succeeded to the throne, which can be seen from his attitude towards the Yin family, but after he ascended the throne, many things became beyond his control.

Ideas are good, but reality is always reality.

No matter how wise an emperor is, he also needs loyal and reliable courtiers to serve him, and only those with relevant interests can do things with more dedication. In the early days of the court, many people have the idea of ​​​​showing great plans.

But as time passed, the power in his hands increased, his ambitions swelled, and he started to form cliques involuntarily.

The emperor didn't want to face such a situation, but he couldn't control it.

But in the final analysis, whether it is the Mu family behind Concubine Shu, or the Ouyang family behind the queen, in fact, there is no real threat to the emperor's throne.

The reason why Emperor Tiande wanted to weaken their power was because neither King Yuan nor King Xu was his ideal candidate for the next emperor.

The performance of the Fourteenth Prince Yaohua at the palace banquet last night will definitely make His Majesty the Emperor reevaluate.

"If you don't have a strong desire for power, there's nothing wrong with quitting the court in time." Wen Jinyan's elegant and melodious voice rang in his ears, pulling Xuanyin out of his thoughts, "The fourteenth prince can do what he wants by himself." thought of things."

Xuanyin heard the words and turned her head to look at him: "Jinyan, you seem to think highly of Yaohua."

"It's not that I think highly of him deliberately, but that he is already high." Wen Jinyan smiled, "Don't you think so?"

Xuanyin frowned, and was about to say something when suddenly there was a loud noise.

boom!
The two who had just stepped out of the arch and walked into Mo Yuanju were shocked.
