The ancient Kings were totalitarian rulers who could order instant death for anyone if that was what they wanted. It would have been 'poor etiquette' to appear sad in the Artaxerxes' presence and this could have had a bad end for Nehemiah. The fact that he showed his feelings enough to be noticed gave Nehemiah undoubted cause for concern. Evidently though, his previous good service had held him in good favor with the King and so it led to a good outcome, with God's help as well of course.

How did nehemiah become a leader?

Well at Nehemiah we're told at chapter 0ne verse 2 that Hanani, one of his brothers, arrived with other men from Judah, and I asked them about the remaining Jews who had escaped the captivity, and also a out Jerusalem. Verse 3" The walls of Jerusalem are Rosen down, and it's gates have been burned with fire." Verse 4 "As soon as I heard these words, I sat down and began to weep and mourn for days, and I kept fasting and praying before the God of the heavens. Verse 5 I said: "O Jehovah, the God of the heavens ,. Verse 6 " pleasd, let your ear be attentive and your eyes open to listen. So according to chapter 2 verses 1- 6 he asked the King Artaxerxes for permission to go back and rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. Because it was very distressing to him. And he wanted to do something about it.
