In the third year of Shaosheng (1096).

Song Zhezong Zhao Zhe has been in power for three years.

At that time, the court was still dominated by Yuanyou's old ministers. As the emperor, he had almost no voice of his own.

However, this young emperor did not have any means.

The Empress Dowager Gao, who was extremely proud of himself and as long as he stretched out his hand, would do his own thing to push him to the position of "Wu Zetian", taught him every bit of the political means and human means he had mastered throughout his life without any hiding his own personal experience.

This paved the way for him to appoint reformists such as Zhang Chun and Zeng Bu in the future, and also laid the foundation for him to defeat the Western Xia and subdue the Tubo Yangsilu regime.

He was an outstanding politician and one of the few emperors in the Song Dynasty who made contributions to the outside world.

Huang Shang watched all this happen with his own eyes and felt extremely painful.

From time to time, he would sigh in the secret room.

In his opinion, this is a wise king worth following.

He also felt that if he could keep up with this wise ruler, he might become a wise minister who had been famous in history.

This has always been his wish.

But it's a pity.

This is an unfulfilled wish.

Because, since the wise king Zhao Zhe, who was recognized by Huang Shang, took power little by little and gradually gained power in the court, the prime minister Fan Chunren, who once sent him to lurk in the world, has been getting further and further away from the center.

The occurrence of these things once made Huang Shang lose hope.

In addition, he also made him stop working hard to integrate the power of the world... and became depressed and depressed.

However, Huang Shang's sadness did not affect the process of integrating the Jianghu Plan.

On the contrary, because of his disregard for the sake of his care, those people have greater freedom. In addition, Fan Chunren also has some political capital, and some of the people he has gathered in the court are considerately taking care of.

However, animals that lose their cages will directly turn into beasts.

Because he didn't care about the world, the fire of ambition in the hearts of Jiang Shaoyang, Zuo Changsheng, Zhu Xiawu and others gradually burned.

These ambitious people gathered together to discuss and directly used Huang Shang's identity to build a large foundation for themselves.

Then, people like Zhu Xiawu chose to hide deeper.

For example, Zhu Xiawu himself, on the surface he was a genius of the Six Gates, but in secret he was the famous King Zhu of Heaven in the world.

There are many similar people.

Others kicked the court away after taking advantage of the court, and were not prepared to let these people take control of their own rights.

When Zhao Ji succeeded to the throne, Fan Chunren was restored and served as the Grand Secretary of Guanwen Hall, Huang Shang gradually felt hope in his heart.

He looked back and saw that all the ambitious people had become a climate, and even threatened him in turn...

If you, Huang Shang, dare to steal my rights, I will kill all your family, and he will hear it.

Out of control.

Yes, everyone is out of control.

Including himself.

Lost, he begged Fan Chunren to let him return to the court and made serious statement that he really wanted to do something.

Fan Chunren agreed with her mouth.

However, when I really did it, I told Zhao Ji that he had an eye disease and went home to retire and retire.

Now, Huang Shang was completely confused.

At this time, he had almost lost all his life goals... After all, his life goal was to become an official.

Otherwise, I would not have worked hard to study and I would have been the top scorer in the exam.

He worked very hard in studying.

However, the things in the martial arts world made him unable to get up to his mind at all.

Fan Chunren's departure hit him hard and also made him feel angry.

At this moment, Xu Zhu announced that the martial arts conference was held and that the throne of the supreme martial arts world would be handed over to him Huang Shang or Dugu Qiuxian.

Choose one of two.

Huang Shang felt that the Supreme Martial Arts World would not fall on him.

Because, I will lose on purpose.

This is the beginning of his revenge.

He will definitely let Fan Chunren know that he is definitely not a tool to lose after using it.

He also wants those in the court to know that Huang Shang will never make a tool.

Don’t you all want me to win, let me sit in the position of the Supreme Martial Arts to do things for you?

good!

Then I, Huang Shang, will lose to Dugu Qiuxian. I see if you are angry.

Therefore, he used the means of revenge that children would have almost only when facing their parents.

But Huang Shang has been in the officialdom and wants to save face.

So in the fight, he used eight points of strength and just waited for Dugu Qiuxian to use his ultimate move, and he admitted defeat.

At that time, the court will not blame him too much...

I have to say that Huang Shang's style of conduct is really not in line with the world.

After all, there are really not so many rules in the world. If you want to lose, you can lose with integrity or start acting at the beginning.

But he has been in the officialdom, but he has to pay attention to rules in everything.

So, he won.

At this moment, Huang Shang not only won the duel in disappointment.

He also saw Dugu Qiuxian’s shameless first salute to him, and firmly stated that Huang Shang will be the supreme martial arts world ever since.

This seems to be a kind of irony.

But he couldn't find any reason to object.

Huang Shang was wondering, if he didn't recognize him, would those who controlled him in the court directly believe that he was neglecting his duties?

By then, maybe I will never be able to return to the court in my whole life, right?

He can only recognize it.

Can't object.

Looking at Dugu Qiuxian, who was not virtuous across the street, Huang Shang rolled his eyes hard to the latter, trying to tell the other party that he had already seen through the trick.

Unfortunately, after Dugu Qiuxian performed the ceremony, he left with a sword in his arms.

Looking at that direction, it should be Lingjiu Palace.

Huang Shang was confused when he saw it.

When he came to his senses, he looked at the martial arts people present and bowed to him, and suddenly recalled the competition in Shaosheng in three years.

That's not specifically targeting me, right?

He thought so.

At that time, why were only officials from Fujian participating?

Why was Fan Chunren not surprised at all after seeing him?

Why didn’t Zhezong even ask?

Huang Shang suddenly felt that all this seemed to be a conspiracy.

One of them had already designed it and was waiting for him to jump in, specifically targeting him.

Of course, there is a premise that makes him instantly throw all these doubts out of his mind.

He is the top scorer!

As the top scholar, isn’t it normal to do something that ordinary people cannot do?

That's what he thought.

Because Huang Shang always felt that the most suitable place for him must be the court, not the world.

But he never thought about how to be a good official as an official...

He probably wouldn't have thought that it was because he could not become an official that he could not return to the court.

If he knew, he would probably vomit blood and die.

...

"no!"

“I can’t be their tool!”

"Even if I become the supreme martial arts world, I will never become a tool they can drive at will!"

Looking back in a daze.

Huang Shang once again thought of his purpose...

He wants to take revenge on the nobles in the court!
