Huo Jingyan has always heard that the Hanli Kingdom is not only good at fighting, but also better at manipulating people's hearts than ordinary officials.
He didn't feel it in the past, but now, he feels it deeply.
"I'm not… "
Huo Jingyan wanted to tell Han Liguo that he would not marry Gu Xuan'er, and he and Gu Xuan'er were not in the relationship that everyone thought.
But now, everyone looked at him with admiration and admiration, and those words that came to their lips could not be uttered no matter what.
The guests present included almost half of the celebrities and dignitaries in Huaguo.
If he didn't want to lose the support of these people, if he didn't want to let them down, he couldn't tell others that everything just now was just a show, and he didn't love Gu Xuan'er at all.
"Okay... I understand. Write more about Marshal Han's success, and I'll take Xuan'er away." Huo Jingyan gritted his teeth and suffered from this embarrassing loss.
What he thought in his heart was that after returning home, he must torture Gu Xuan'er severely.
He helped Gu Xuan'er up, and left quickly surrounded by guards.
When passing by Lu Huanting and Lu Yishen before leaving, Lu Huanting obviously wanted to talk to him, but Huo Jingyan ignored him coldly.
"Prime Minister Lu." Han Liguo stopped Lu Huanting who wanted to leave with Huo Jingyan.
"My Han family does not welcome any illegitimate children who are not on the stage. If Prime Minister Lu wants to visit the Han family next time, remember not to bring those embarrassing things to the door."
"Marshal Han is worrying too much. I, Lu Huanting, will never visit again in the future." Lu Huanting straightened his back, showing more backbone than Han Liguo imagined.
Without crutches, his old right leg was aching.
But that's it, still stand firm.
Lu Yishen had already been let go by the soldiers at this time. Compared with Lu Huanting, who was neither humble nor overbearing, Lu Yishen's head was almost hanging on his chest, and he didn't have the appearance of a confident nobleman.
One generation is not as good as one generation, compared with the heirs of the Lu family who were brought up by Mr. Lu himself.
Lu Yishen is more than one grade lower than Lu Huanting or Lu Yuchen.
"Hey, it's really embarrassing for something that's not on the table." Han Liguo's indifferent comment drew Lu Huanting's hostile eyes.
At this time, Lu Huanting still regarded his illegitimate child as a treasure.
"Yishen, let's go." He supported his son, wanting him to hold his head high.
But from childhood to adulthood, under the road paved by Lu Huanting, Lu Yishen grew up smoothly.
The inner line of defense has long since collapsed.
For the first time in front of everyone, the truth about the illegitimate child was exposed face to face.
For the first time, he was trampled underfoot by someone with a higher status than him, and became the focus of others' teasing.
Such a blow was really too big and too subversive for him.
He wasn't mentally prepared for it at all.
"Dad, let's go, let's go." Lu Yishen refused to raise his head even after saying anything, he lowered his head and walked away quickly.
Looking at the back of his son leaving in a hurry.
Lu Huanting sighed silently.
Before leaving, he turned his head and took a deep look at Lu Yuchen and the woman in his arms.
good very good.
He will let this rebellious son and his beloved woman understand what will happen if they anger him.
The next day, Lu Yuchen's appointment as the speaker was finally formalized.
Even though he was plagued by negativity before, after a period of gambling, in the end it was the profound background of the Lu family that allowed Lu Yuchen to win an overwhelming victory in the final vote.
After the temporary investigation is over, Lu Yuchen can finally take office officially.
"Speaker Lu, congratulations on your successful assumption of office. I don't know if you will succeed in taking up the post of Speaker this time. What do you want to say?"
