The more this happens, the more Zhou Yan feels a headache, because someone comes to ask him, who will he ask?

Although he was a bridge between the court and the common people, the affairs in the palace were not what he, a little prefect, said.

In fact, everyone came to inquire about the news because Jingzhao Mansion is more knowledgeable.

Now everyone is touching the elephant blindly, but all kinds of vicious rumors have become more and more intense, which makes Zhou Yan feel like he can't hold it. The only thing that makes him relaxed is that the Wei family seems to have no movement at all now.

What he was afraid of was that someone from the Wei family came to him at this time and asked him to kill the current unhealthy trend. Then the prefect, the prefect would be bad, because this matter was too popular, so that the streets and alleys were talking about it. If you really want to take someone, can this person play with it? Of course, you can kill the chicken to warn the monkey, but what's the use of killing the chicken to warn the monkey?

What's more, the angry people are no longer in the market, and there are many people who are furious in the temple.

At first, the ministers were very rational. They didn't believe in such rumors at all. When they heard these news, they couldn't help but sneer in their hearts. You ordinary people knew that they were ignorant of the matter in the palace. It was indeed a foolish people. Even if they wanted to spread rumors and cause trouble, they shouldn't have made such rumors. The stupid and unruly people even believed such things.

But now... when the news of Your Majesty's serious illness came out, almost everyone began to feel suspicious.

At this moment, the ministers of the three provinces immediately entered the palace and requested an audience and visited His Majesty's condition.

This was a matter of course. Your Majesty is the lord of the world. Now there are so many rumors outside and many bad news has been circulated in the inner court. How can the prime ministers sit still? They have to meet each other no matter what.

However, news came from the palace that his Majesty was unconscious and it was not convenient to meet him for the time being.

In fact, this is also the truth, but it has allowed people from the outside to get a lot of information. First of all, it is natural that the news that Your Majesty is seriously ill is absolutely true. However, a few days ago, Your Majesty was still alive and jumping around. Now he suddenly fell into a coma, which is too horrifying. Then, we can contact the previous rumors to confirm each other and carefully consider some details. It makes people think about it very terrifying and creepy.

Next, I was embarrassed and angry.

It's okay if you are in power in the Wei family. Does anyone dare to say something? But you want to harm Your Majesty. What does this mean? Most of those who are not the Wei family party think they are ministers of the Tang Dynasty. When they hear this, they are already furious, but even those of the Wei party are full of complaints. Why are we joining your Wei family for? Isn't it just for glory and wealth and peace? Everyone is a symbiosis of interests. You give me a rich future. I am your lackey and I will serve you. This is of course very good, and everyone is very happy. But the problem is that you don't even discuss and do such a big thing rashly, making everything confusing, and even your own future. Suddenly I feel a little confused. If you want to die, you will die by yourself. Why bother to drag everyone into the water? You kill yourself, you are also killing everyone.

Now Chang'an is saying that the Wei family wants to be Sima Zhao, and to usurp the throne. You are ambitious, so naturally nothing. The emperor has done this. In this world, who are in power, who are not doing this? But what you are doing is too stupid, so that before people are killed, rumors have already spread. Even if you Wei family members want to be the emperor, we will accept it. Anyway, as long as we buy us and give us enough benefits, it is nothing. But, they are doing things so stupid that... everyone is the target of public criticism. Who will end up?

All this anger has arisen, so many people simply stayed in the door and wanted to play with fire, so they would play by themselves and were burned to death.

Some royal families have already begun to make their own plans at this time, at least... some distant clans, and even a few princes who have left the palace, have now been visited by people of all kinds.

The purpose is obviously very simple. If there is a time when there is a time, will the Li family still want? The Wei family is obviously a family. Such a magnificent poisoning of the emperor, who knows whether they will immediately reveal their true face? In any case, these Li royal families have become the last expectation of many people.

Zhou Yan is now in a dilemma, because the next day, when there was not much news in the palace, many people have come to the door. Obviously, these people are not inquiring about the news, but are here to test it.

The person who came early in the morning was an official in Jingzhao Mansion. He came in the name of official business, but suddenly said: "Eunuch, there have been signs of instability in the city recently. I heard... there are many rumors of mutiny in the Longwu Army. Should I pay more attention to it?"

Of course, Zhou Yan does not need to be in charge of the military affairs, but if there is a mutiny, then his Jingzhao Mansion will become the target of public criticism.

It is not impossible to make a mutiny now, not to mention that the governor of the Longwu Army is the son-in-law of the second prince Li Chongfu. His daughter is the prince's concubine and has the most profound relationship with the second prince. The second prince is naturally not the flesh and blood of Wei. As for the biological mother, it is just a certain family. I am afraid that only the genius knows who this certain family is now. Everyone knows that His Majesty obeys Wei's will. How could Wei allow a woman to give birth to a son, and fortunately stay with Li Xian.

Li Xian has several sons, the eldest son has been killed by Wu Zetian. Now the second prince Li Chongfu is the eldest son, almost the most qualified person to inherit the throne.

Empress Wei's son had long been killed by Wu Zetian and had no children since then, because the remaining three sons are not legitimate sons. It is precisely because of the lack of legitimate sons that the eldest son has become a popular one. Logically speaking, Li Chongfu only needs to wait patiently and will ascend the throne one day. He did this. Usually, the second prince almost never hides. He will only enter the palace to greet his father and queen when there is a festival. Almost everyone in the entire Chang'an City has forgotten the existence of this prince.

Zhou Yan is a smart person and knows that the reason why everyone forgets is just because they have their own ulterior motives. Li Chongfu's supporters do not want the second prince to be the target of public criticism. After all, the Wei family is in power, and the second prince is not the Wei family's parent-child. Naturally, the lower the key, the better. Just wait patiently. Those who have no feelings for the second prince are naturally unwilling to mention this person out of thin air. Just think that forgetting.

But, the Longwu Army suddenly showed signs of instability. What does this mean? It means that the second prince no longer dared to continue to endure it, and it also reflects that many people are already vaguely worried that Empress Wei will start usurping the throne next. Once Empress Wei wants to be the emperor, can Li Chongfu, the second prince, survive? The day of usurping the throne is when Li Chongfu will die. This prince is obviously ready to fight to the death.

When this official asked this question, Zhou Yan felt a little sad.

Because he knew that this was definitely not a routine question, it was a test. Who was testing him? It might be Wei or the second prince. People are in panic at the moment. Everyone is planning their own plans. Every word they say now may change their lives.

He was confused. Does the second prince have hope? Although he benefited from the promotion of the Wei family, he still had some emotions about the royal family. Moreover, what Wei did was indeed a perfect behavior.

But since Wei took action and the Wei party spread all over the world, should he put all his treasures on the weak second prince?

He hesitated and looked at the official, but he was sweating profusely. Finally, he smiled and said calmly: "Oh, I need to pay attention to this matter."

It was just that this understatement was perfunctory. But he knew in his heart that he was just delaying time. God knew... when will it come when he finally faced a decision.

The official had no expression on his face, and seemed to be distracted by Zhou Yan's words. He just nodded: "The official knows it." Then he retreated.

Zhou Yan looked at the man's back and left, but he didn't feel relaxed. He suddenly felt that the sky was about to change.

How will things continue? Although he has not experienced the major changes in Luoyang Palace at the beginning, he suddenly realized that the high position he was seeking now has become a hot potato.

Wei Xuanzhen's situation is the most difficult.

Almost when he appeared in the Secretariat, everyone was very silent about him. Although everyone was polite and everyone had a smile on their faces, he knew that many people were alienated in their hearts.

This kind of alienation is not hostility to the Wei family. To some extent, Wei Xuanzhen knew that these people were just fences. No one could guess what would happen next in the current situation. Too much approach to the Wei family or excessive alienation to the Wei family were all unwise actions. Everyone was still waiting patiently. The people here were different from those low-level officials. The low-level officials were full of indignation and had already suddenly aroused and began to denounce them.

But the people here are just silent. No matter what they are thinking in their hearts, no matter whether they are happy or angry, they seem to be like a group of gamblers waiting to untie the dice cup. Everyone has reserved it before the answer is revealed.

The situation in Chang'an City was long as Wei Xuanzhen expected, but he still underestimated the power of the people. Moreover, the three princes seemed to have signs of instability now, and some people had begun to contact them.

This made Wei Xuanzhen very worried, but he... knew that although His Majesty's illness was still serious at the moment, it would gradually heal. As long as he survived that period, with His Majesty's trust in the Wei family, I believe... this storm will pass soon.

But what about now? The current situation can only be described as powerless.

As before, he went to the inner court with other prime ministers and asked to see him.

The news he received was naturally the same as usual. His Majesty was still in a coma. But when he was about to leave, an eunuch said, "Mr. Wei, please come."

Wei Xuanzhen nodded and entered the palace quickly.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Empress Wei naturally paid great attention to Li Xian's body. Of course, she didn't want this Majesty to have any accident.

In fact, it was not until now that people were in panic that Wei suddenly felt that he was so fragile that the arrogant Wei family was so vulnerable.

People's words are terrifying, and the morale of the army is floating, not to mention, I don't know how many people with ulterior motives seem to have planned a way out, and the royal family is already restless. The governors of each town have almost no way to imagine which side they will stand next.

Only then did Wei realize that the power he was doing was actually just an illusion. The so-called power was only manifested by adsorbing Li Xian's nutrients. Once Li Xian made any mistake, it was very likely that the Wei family would be trapped in a place of doom.

Because of this, she was with her sickbed almost every day and observed Li Xian’s movements. She had not closed her eyes for two nights, and her ambitions have now been much more relieved.

In fact, Wei always hoped that he could kick a man away like Wu Zetian and rule the world as a woman. But soon, she realized that her thoughts were so ridiculous that she seemed to be too far away from Wu Zetian.

When Wei Xuanzhen arrived and was waiting in the side hall beside her, Wei had already grown up, looked at Li Xian, and then left for the side hall on the side hall.

"Empress, the situation outside is already in chaos, I heard... "
