() Sleepless nights, thinking hard about countermeasures. When it was about to dawn, Wu Zetian finally had some lack of energy, after all, she was already an old woman in her sixties, she was tired and sleepless all night, and she really couldn't stay up, seeing that there was still a period of time before dawn, she took a short nap at the desk.

But not long after she closed her eyes, her spirit was in a daze, and when she was half asleep, she suddenly heard the entire hall rumbling, and Wu Zetian suddenly woke up with a spirit, and said quickly: "What happened?" ”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, ...... the West"

The soul of the palace official rushed in without possession, and he couldn't make a sound when he ate in his mouth, and more than a dozen healthy women serving in front of the palace rushed into the hall, and he couldn't help but set up Wu Zetian and ran outside the hall: "Please forgive your majesty for the rudeness of the concubine and other faux pas, the West may be ...... the ground."

While speaking, Wu Zetian had been set up out of the dormitory by the healthy women, and then looked up at the Ming Hall, Rao is perennial in the court, her own calm, and for a while she couldn't help but change color: I saw that the towering Ming Hall was swaying slightly, especially the swaying amplitude of the iron phoenix at the top was even more amazing. As for the Heaven that has just been halfway completed, the upper level that has not yet been capped has even fallen wood and stone!

After the initial panic, Wu Zetian's face gradually recovered some blood, and he raised his hand to soothe the group: "I am from the Holy Mother, how can there be a natural disaster in the forbidden world!" Don't be alarmed, it must be a police officer somewhere in another state, and the aftermath will reach the heavens......"

Hearing that although Wu Zetian was a little trembling, he did not lose his high-pitched tone, and the palace people who followed her out of the palace, including the Praetorian Guards who had hurried here to defend him, were also a little settled, at least they already had a backbone, and they followed His Majesty the Divine Emperor to move slowly, instead of shouting and running away like headless flies like before.

Indeed, the epicenter of the earthquake should be in the west of the Shendu, and the forbidden center is only shallowly affected. Wu Zetian was strong and self-determined, and after leaving the Ming Hall, he went around heaven, constantly appeasing those panicked palace people and guards along the way, all the way through the back two halls and Taoguang Garden, and when he arrived at the Xuanwu Gate, there were already more than 2,000 people gathered in front of and behind him.

"The minister was ordered to guard the Xuanwu Gate, and he didn't dare to leave, and he couldn't enter the forbidden middle guard in time, which was really ......."

Wu Youyi, the general of the right Yulin, saw His Majesty the Divine Emperor arrive at the Xuanwu Gate under the protection of the palace people and the guards, and he was also panicked for a while, his face was pale, and he hurriedly stepped forward to bow down and plead guilty. The earthquake felt slightly weaker here at Xuanwu Gate, probably because of the large construction near the Mingtang and the fact that the buildings were too grand, which made the earthquake even stronger.

Although Wu Zetian is a little dislike of Wu Youyi and can't be flexible, it must be known that in addition to being vigilant against natural disasters along the way, she is also worried that there will be ** rampant.

Fortunately, he arrived safely, and it was not good to reprimand Wu Youyi in public at this time, but he just said in a condensed voice: "Guarding the duty station, no matter what is the crime?" Quickly the Yulin army entered the southern government to summon the prime ministers here, the heavenly puppets have a sense, and the state affairs cannot be delayed for a moment! ”

When Wu Youyi heard this, he no longer guarded the Xuanwu Gate, and first personally led the people to escort the God Emperor into the Xianju Courtyard near the Xuanwu Gate, and then took the people and horses to the south of the Ya.

At the same time, the thousand cavalry envoy Wu Youning had also gathered the thousand cavalry army, and after searching all the way into the Xianju Courtyard, Wu Zetian ordered again: "Quickly divide the thousand cavalry and defend the emperor, the queen, the crown prince and the kings, and must not be disturbed by chaos!" ”

After a noisy busyness, the time had already reached the morning, and all the ministers on duty in Nan Ya had been led by the Yulin Army to wait outside the Xuanwu Gate to be summoned.

Wu Zetian did not immediately summon the courtiers who had asked for admission several times, but first summoned Xing Wenwei, the doctor of Zuo Suzheng, and immediately rushed to the outside of Zetian Gate to review the assembly of officials of the court and staff today, and recorded all the missing people.

It was not until noon that Wu Zecai accepted the worship of hundreds of officials outside the Xuanwu Gate, and ordered the hundred officials to temporarily enter Xuanwu City to deal with government affairs.

After the prime ministers of the Southern Ya were summoned into Taoguang Garden, Wu Zetian announced the news of the defeat of the Prime Minister Wei Zhijia River, and made a decision: Wei Zhiqi stripped off all the officials and lords, escorted to the capital to discuss the crime, and the deputy general Anxi Dadu Hu Yan Wengu led the crowd to stop and delay the military aircraft, and directly beheaded in the army.

When the prime ministers learned of this, they were all shocked for a while, and Fan Lubing, the official secretary of the Chunguan, had not yet delivered the official military report, and asked for a postponement. However, Wu Zetian was extremely tough at this time, and directly set the tone, which was beyond doubt, and immediately promulgated the edict.

Taking advantage of this sudden situation, Wu Zetian condemned the defeat of the Western Expedition to death with lightning speed, and did not give people room to make further attacks later.

But that doesn't mean the end of the matter, as the earthquake that has just struck is not good news either, and the fallout could be even more severe.

Facts have proved that Wu Zetian's judgment was correct. In the evening, the relevant disaster was sent to the capital, located in Xijing between Chang'an and Shendu Taizhou a violent landslide, there are mountains moving hundreds of steps away, directly the river is congested, the river floods, and the surrounding hundreds of miles are flooded in a moment.

In addition to the landslide and flood, the powerful aftermath of the earthquake is also very widespread, the earthquake in the Shendu City hundreds of miles away is so strong, and it will only be more serious near the epicenter, the military city Tongguan in Taizhou has been affected by the earthquake and collapsed more than half, the river is turbid, and the fish and shrimp have been killed and injured countless times.

In the days that followed, related disasters continued to spread to the city. The aftermath of the earthquake is frequent, sometimes even several times a day, and people are panicked between the two cities, and the corresponding rumors are naturally spreading.

No one can always be strong, and Wu Zetian is naturally no exception, and soon she tasted the consequences of her previous domineering behavior. That is, when discussing the basic issue of disaster relief, they all encountered perfunctory constraints, and even when the victims had poured into the vicinity of the Shendu City, the imperial court still did not discuss a specific disaster relief plan.

The heroine is in the court, or she is exquisite and ruthless, but when natural disasters broke out one after another, Wu Zetian's weakness was also fully exposed.

Although she has just neatly won the prime minister Zhang Guangfu and several foreign assassins, the administration of Taiwan Province is almost paralyzed, and in terms of real governance, the cool officials she relies on are useless!

And the more critical problem is that there are already people in the capital who have linked the ensuing natural disasters**. The so-called mountain moves by itself, there are soldiers in the world, the society is dead, and there are mountain migrants who don't need the way, rewards and punishments are not up to the king, the people are in power, and the government is in the heroine.

What can make people strong will eventually form a constraint on people. Wu Zetian planned a revolution, advocating Fu Rui induction, and even made a big splash last year to welcome the treasure map and Bailuo water.

Therefore, when this series of prophecy talismans was born, it soon became noisy and loud. Even soon spread from the countryside to the court, there is a royal history directly on the book said that since the arch, the mountain disasters between the two capitals continue to fall, only because the heroine Juyang, Kun Qi is not compatible, so the veins are blocked, the mountains become disasters, please the Queen Mother sideways to cultivate virtue, return to the political master, in order to answer the damnation!

Under such circumstances, even if Wu Zetian made some concessions and used Li Longji, the king of Chu, to honor the emperor as the heir to show the existence of Emperor Li Dan, he did not receive the slightest effect at all.

Now that the crowd is surging, it seems that they are no longer satisfied with Wu Zetian's slight concession, but plan to directly sweep Wu Zetian out of the court. Especially at the end of the month, a rebellion broke out again outside the Shendu City, and some rangers recruited people to prepare to go south to Fangzhou to welcome back Li Xian, the king of Luling.

After all, even if the Divine Emperor returned to Emperor Li Dan, the benefit was nothing more than those scholars and doctors. As for those people at the bottom, if they want to get ahead, they naturally need to make another special contribution to welcome back the deposed emperor Li Xian, which is obviously much greater than supporting the current emperor.

"Could it be that Cang naively dislikes the heroine?"

Wu Zetian walked all the way out of Ganye Temple, and there was naturally no lack of toughness in her personality, but the surging human feelings and foreign affairs in front of her made her own heart shaken.

"Your Majesty the Divine Emperor must not think of this! The afflictions in front of him are just treacherous and evil currents taking advantage of the situation to make fools......"

When Wu Chengsi and the other Wu clan members heard Wu Zetian say this, they were also panicked for a while, and they bowed and advised.

Wu Youning said more bluntly: "The current situation is already a measure and cannot be retreated!" Now in the court, it belongs to His Majesty the Emperor, and in the opposition, it is the king of Luling. Whoever owns the national weapon, it is difficult to stop the riots. Your Majesty's grace has been accumulating for a long time, and the feelings of the crowd are still surging, no matter who the two choose, can they quickly decide? ”

Weighing many pros and cons, Wu Zetian naturally thinks more thoroughly than her nephews, she is just depressed for a long time and complains a little, in fact, she does not have the meaning of testing the true hearts of her nephews.

But the help of these nephews to her is limited to words, but when it comes to real affairs, the help is really not great. She is quite stable in the forbidden town, but the crowd inside and outside the capital is turbulent, and the left and right Jin Wuwei are in vain, and several times the case has occurred, relying on the reports of the people involved.

If the situation continues to be so chaotic, Wu Zetian is worried that even if Xue Huaiyi's army has high hopes for returning to the capital, he is afraid that he will become some kind of "Qinwang Yishi" if he turns his face.

"How has Qiu Shenyun been living lately?"

The nephews were not capable, and Wu Zetian couldn't help but think of his former henchmen again, and he had a little idea of reusing it in his heart, but he hadn't made a decision yet.

But when she asked this question, she saw that her nephews' faces changed slightly, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and then said: "You don't need to worry about how powerful you are on this occasion of fame and fortune. But as much as you give, you must also be faithful and diligent. ”

After saying this, Wu Zetian withdrew a few more people, picked up the pen instead, and instructed Di Renjie, who was about to return to the capital, to go to Taizhou to immediately take over the disaster relief matters.

Of course, she also understands that disaster relief is a comprehensive problem, and without the support of Taiwan Province and the transfer of material resources, it would be difficult for Di Renjie to carry out even if he has a clever plan.

The biggest problem at the moment is still people's unpredictability, the reason why Wu Zetian sent Di Renjie is not his ability, but Di Renjie's accumulated virtue and fame, hoping to soothe the feelings of the disaster people, at least don't let these disaster victims pour into Heluo in an orderly manner, and add to the chaos under the eyes of the gods.

Then she pulled herself together and began to deal with the pieces that had been squeezed for the next few days, but most of them only made her more annoying. It's just that when she kept flipping through it, suddenly a piece of music shocked her spirit, and the content was hurriedly glanced, and then she looked at the end, but found that it was actually a piece of music by Li Shouyi, the king of Hedong.

"Recently, there is still a book from the king of Hedong? Get it now! ”

Wu Zetian's eyes were fixed on the content of the book, and he said hurriedly.

Seeing this, the female official in front of the palace did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to the inner hall to ask, and sure enough, she took a few more books. After Wu Zetian finished reading in turn, his eyebrows and eyes were already stretched, and he laughed and said, "Fortunately, I have this good grandson!" Quickly send the envoy and urgently summon the king of Hedong to see him! ”
