After discussing things with Cen Feng in the imperial study, Emperor Zhou's mood was very complicated and chaotic, and he wanted to go back to the Chenghua Hall to rest for a while, but as soon as Long Jia came out of the imperial study, he suddenly had a thought and wanted to walk around, so he ordered the eunuch next to him to change his way.

For this rumor turmoil, he was concerned about the royal reputation and his own reputation as an emperor through the ages, and for a while he was blinded by the anger of hating the rumor-mongers, and he did not think as thoughtfully and long-term as Cen Feng.

Moreover, in the depths of Emperor Zhou's heart, which he never revealed, he also believed in the phrase "no wind and no waves".

Even if he repeatedly comforts himself in his heart, the prince's life experience is not suspicious, and everything that spreads rumors out of thin air is nonsense.

But whenever he calms down alone, those doubts about this matter that are deliberately hidden by him will always be like slender needles, densely pierced in his heart.

Although there are no particularly strong feelings, it is impossible to ignore.

In addition, Cen Feng had just related the rumors to Nan Chu, which made Emperor Zhou feel a deep anxiety in addition to being shocked. Although he was disappointed in the crown prince because of the old case of the official bank, since he was still in this much-anticipated storage position, he was the future heir of the Great Zhou Jiangshan.

But as the saying goes, once there are more people saying something, the false becomes true.

If this rumor intensifies, the prince's background will be questioned by the people, making it difficult for them to be convinced. Even if he inherits the unification in the future, he will be criticized by others, leave people to speak, and even provoke criticism from future generations.

On the contrary, even if Emperor Zhou really made up his mind to abolish the crown prince in the end, once the throne was shaken, it would inevitably make the court situation turbulent and the country frustrated, which would be a disaster for the entire Great Zhou Dynasty.

And in this way, those powers from all walks of life who have long been eyeing the Great Zhou will be moved, intending to take advantage of the situation.

And the most important thing to guard against is Nan Chu, who is kind and friendly on the surface, and obedient, but in fact has long been ambitious.

This is also the reason why Emperor Zhou still did not have the strength to disregard public opinion, ignore Zhao Xinzhi's request, and resolutely abolish the crown prince.

If it is really as Cen Feng said, it is the Chu people who are planning all this behind their backs, it means that they have begun to be uneasy about the status quo and are ready to move.

I am afraid that this rumor is just a small beginning, and there may be further actions in the future.

If the rumors cannot be controlled in time, this undercurrent can be suppressed, and the back road will be cut off before it has turned into a monstrous wave, which will inevitably be a huge threat to Da Zhou.

Therefore, at this time, Emperor Zhou was no longer as angry as before, obsessed with finding and severely punishing rumor-mongers.

He soon realized that the way to dispel this rumor as quickly as possible and convince everyone was to prove his blood relationship with the crown prince.

Only by seeing the move and letting the enemy go out of the army and return in vain, can he leave more time to deploy the next step.

"Your Majesty, let's not go forward, right?"

Just as Emperor Zhou slowly walked forward, his face solemnly fell into contemplation, but the voice of his personal eunuch Wu Liang suddenly sounded in his ears. "Huh, what's wrong?"

Emperor Zhou was slightly stunned when he heard this, came back to his senses from the complicated thoughts, looked up at the wide, long, empty road in front of him, and stopped his somewhat tired footsteps.

After staring for a moment, I saw him tighten his eyebrows with emotion, and a hazy mist evaporated in his eyes, covering up the sadness that was about to overflow his eyes.

Then he said in a vicissitudes of tone: "In front of this, it's Concubine Lan's Zichen Palace, right?"

"Back to Your Majesty, exactly. ”

Wu Liang responded with a somewhat unnatural expression, and glanced sideways at the expression on Emperor Zhou's face at this moment, for fear of evoking that painful past and causing his master to feel sad again.

Concubine Lan's Cheng monk died so horribly in Zichen Palace when he was young, it was really a thunderbolt from the sky, which made Emperor Zhou feel painful, but he couldn't sleep for several days and nights, and later even fell seriously ill.

In addition, the real murderer is still at large, and the truth is a mystery, even though it has been 20 years, this matter is still in his heart

It's like a sharp barb that can no longer be easily pulled out of the heart.

Everything about Concubine Lan was avoided and kept silent in this palace

Of course, in addition to the fear of Emperor Zhou

It is also out of awe and fear of the unknown.

"In the blink of an eye, almost twenty years have passed since that incident, and I am getting old. ”

Emperor Zhou took a deep breath with a solemn complexion, looking at the cornices of Zichen Palace not far away, his eyes suddenly became extremely deep.

"It's been a long time since I've been here, so let's go ahead and take a walk. ”

"Your Majesty......"

"Let's go. ”

Emperor Zhou didn't care about Wu Liangman's embarrassment and worry, and took the lead in moving forward.
