In the quaint study of the royal family, candlelight flickered and cast long shadows dancing on the walls. The head of the royal family, Wang Tingray, sat solemnly in a mahogany chair, his brow furrowed.
His two sons, Wang Yongze and Wang Zeguo, along with several important members of the family, were gathered around, creating a heavy atmosphere.
"Consort Yang was suddenly demoted to a concubine, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to our royal family," said Wang Tingray in a deep and powerful voice, as the candlelight danced on his serious face.
"Wang Fengluan, the wife of Wang Zeguo, has always been the strategist in the family. At this moment, her eyes sparkled with thoughtful light. 'Father, although this event is sudden, it may not be without opportunity. We must quickly adjust our strategy and seek new sources of support.'"
Wang Zeguo, who is relatively calm, gently supports his chin and says, "What Fengluan said makes sense. But we cannot ignore the power of Li Changyu. After all, he is the son of Empress Zhao and has the support of the Zhao family. Moreover, in recent years, it seems that the emperor intends to support his power to suppress the royal family."
Wang Yongze also agrees, "I agree with what my brother identification said."
An elder of the family, with a face marked by the passage of time, spoke slowly, "The accumulation of our royal family over the years cannot be destroyed in an instant. We must proceed with caution and not let outsiders see our wavering."
Wang Tingray nodded, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes, "We must maintain the unity of the family, this is our greatest advantage. In any case, we cannot let the royal family fall apart."
At this moment, Wang Minyi stood outside the study, separated by a door, she could feel the tense atmosphere inside the room. Her heart was filled with worry and unease.
Ever since she was forced to play the role of Wang Shimeng, her life has become increasingly complicated. She has been drawn into the power struggle within the family.
Wang Minyi's heart is filled with contradictions. She wants to do her best for her family, but she is also afraid that her future will become uncontrollable. She sighed softly and walked away.
At the same time, deep in the palace, Li Chung-Shen's situation has also become increasingly difficult. Since his mother Consort Yang fell from power, his position in the court has been greatly affected.
He sat in his study, furrowing his brow, pondering which path to take in the future.
"Your Highness, you seem troubled lately," a gentle voice sounded, it was Li Chung-Shen's personal guard, Fang Tian.
Li Chung-Shen looked at Li Ting and a hint of gratitude flashed in his eyes, "Fang Tian, you have always been loyal. I need your help at this time."
Li Ting was slightly taken aback, then respectfully replied, "Your Highness, you only need to give the order, and I will do my utmost to help."
Li Chung-Shen stood up and walked to the window, gazing at the distant night sky. "I need to understand every faction in the court, especially Li Changyu's movements. We cannot afford to sit and wait for defeat."
Li Ting nodded. "Your Highness, rest assured. I will make arrangements immediately."
In Li Chung-Shen's eyes flashed a hint of determination, he must fight back in order to stand firm in the struggle for power.
In the secret chamber of the royal family, Wang Fengluan and Wang Zeguo are plotting their next move.
Wang Fengluan's eyes gleam with cunning and intelligence as he speaks slowly: "Now is the time to activate the dark chess we laid six months ago, to restrain the power of Li Changyu."
Wang Zeguo's eyes revealed a hint of doubt, "Are you referring to...?"
Wang Fengluan nodded, with a firm tone: "Exactly. Our royal family's eldest daughter, Wang Shimeng, should have already become the sought-after bride of Empress Zhao's son, Li Changyu."
Wang Zeguo's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation, but this hesitation was quickly replaced by a firm determination. "This is indeed an excellent opportunity. We can use this marriage to strengthen our connection with Li Changyu and thereby gain more support and influence in the court."
Wang Fengluan nodded, her voice revealing a hint of conspiracy. "However, we cannot let Li Changyu take complete control. We need to keep a trick up our sleeve in this marriage, just in case."
Wang Zeguo pondered, with a glint of scheming in his eyes, "I understand. We can arrange some special elements at the wedding to control the situation."
Wang Fengluan smiled slightly and nodded in satisfaction.
At the same time, in another part of the palace, Li Changyu is discussing future plans with his mother, Empress Zhao.
"Mother, I have already proposed marriage to Wang Shimeng to the emperor," said Li Changyu.
"Foolish child, it was not easy for me and my cousin Concubine Yang to bring down Consort Yang, and now you want to marry a daughter of the royal family?"
Empress Zhao's brows furrowed, and her voice revealed dissatisfaction and worry, "Li Changyu, why do you insist on this? The royal family is currently in a precarious situation, and forming an alliance with them does not bring much benefit to us."
However, Li Changyu remained composed, and his eyes shimmered with an unusual light, "Your Majesty, you may not see the deeper implications. Although the royal family is currently in decline, their years of accumulation and influence in the court should not be underestimated. If we were to completely eliminate them at this time, it would surely provoke a strong backlash. Now is the perfect opportunity for us to turn the situation around by forming an alliance with them."
Empress Zhao fell silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Are you suggesting using the royal family's daughter to restrain Li Chung-Shen and his influence?"
"Exactly," nodded Li Changyu. " Li Chung-Shen's power has been growing rapidly lately. If we don't find a way to balance it soon, it may not be favorable for us. The royal family can be our pawn in this."
Empress Zhao gradually showed a pensive look on her face, "Well, since you have this intention, I will support you. But be careful in everything, don't let the royal family detect our true intentions."
"Rest assured, Mother. I will handle it properly," Li Changyu said confidently.
