And the next morning, the dragon chair was still empty.
Zhongshu ordered the eldest grandson Wuji and the servant Zhongfang Xuanling to lead the hundred officials, shouting long live to the empty dragon chair mountain, and then they went back to the ya.
Up and down the government and the opposition, people's hearts are panicking.
On the same day, more exciting news came out. The privy envoy Li Jing resigned, the privy deputy envoy Qin Qiong resigned, and the emperor accepted the resignation of the two privy envoys.
The Privy Council was succeeded by the deputy envoy Li Ji, Yin Kaishan served as the commander of the Southern Yadu and took over the post of Southern Marshal, and Duan Zhixuan served as the commander of the Northern Yadu and took over the post of Northern Marshal, and the secretary of the military department was still Liu Hongji.
Three days later, Su Dingfang, the governor of the Right Army, was dismissed, and Qu Tutong, who stayed in Xijing, temporarily served as the governor of the Right Army. Cheng Yanjin, the governor of the Chinese army, was dismissed, and Zhang Gongjin took over as the governor of the Chinese army.

An earth-shattering earthquake suddenly arrived and caught people off guard.
In both military and political circles, a large number of prime ministers and high-ranking officials were demoted.
As more and more officials were exempted from being demoted, there was also a meeting in Beijing that was in full swing.
"Forming a party for personal gain, the party is the same and fighting against differences!"
"Li Dang!"
More and more remarks pointed at the officialdom earthquake at the friends. And this punk party is also known as the Li party, Ma Zhou, Cen Wenwen and a group of prime ministers, who is the party leader?
All the discussions gradually pointed to one person, Zhao Wang Li Chao.
The crown prince has not been to court for several days, and no one has seen the prince. The emperor did not go to the court, but he controlled the government in the Changle Palace, the sword and axe had been swung down, and the cleaning continued.
In just a few days, more than 100 officials of the fifth rank and above have been demoted from the capital, and hundreds of low-level officials have been demoted.
The atmosphere in the DPRK and China is even more panicked, and no one knows when they will be demoted.

Shaanxi, Chang'an, Bashang.
When the news of the earthquake in Beijing came, there were sparse cars and horses in front of the Li Mansion in Bashang, and there was no longer the situation where countless visitors came to visit every day.
Rumors of the purging of the Li Party have also reached Chang'an.
"Teacher, what should we do now?"
On the water surface of Whale Gully, Li Chao and student Su Dingfang were boating.
On the terraced fields on both sides, the slaves and long-term workers of the Li family are plowing the fields, and the terraced fields are full of water, and the ploughing oxen are walking slowly in the paddy fields with ploughs and rakes on their backs, covered in mud.
Among the terraced fields here, there are patches of seedling fields, and the rice seedlings are verdant, like a green carpet.
The weather is warm, and the rice planting season is about to begin.
There are tens of thousands of acres of rice terraces here in the Li family, although only one season of early rice is planted a year, but nearly 50,000 stone rice can be harvested every year. There are few paddy fields in Guanzhong, and there is little rice planted, but Chang'an, which is close to Bashang, is now a bustling shopping mall city, with a large number of southerners, and there is a great demand for rice, but whether it is transported from the two lakes or the Hetao, the cost of transportation is high.
Therefore, the Li family's rice cultivation is very cost-effective, and the supply exceeds demand every year.
There are many people picking mulberry leaves on the hillside, and it is also the season for raising silkworms. The mulberry tree of the Li family has been improved, and it is no longer the kind of tall mulberry tree, but through pruning the branches, the mulberry tree is only less than one person high, and new branches grow new leaves every year, and the mulberry leaves are both numerous and easy to pick.
When the mulberries are ripe, they are harvested and used to make mulberry purple wine.
"We don't need to do anything!" Li Chao leaned on the bow of the boat, looked at the clear water, and said indifferently.
"Teacher, the emperor is going to hide the bow and kill the heroes, the knives have been put up to the neck, we can't sit still." Su Dingfang said a little anxiously.
With an edict, Su Dingfang, the governor of the Right Army, was dismissed, and he was also removed from his rank of military aircraft.
As a member of Zaifu, he is still the commander of the town, and he said that he would be dismissed if he was dismissed, so suddenly. He was not at fault, he was dismissed only because he was a student of Li Chao.
"Dingfang, what do you want to do?" Li Chao asked him.
"We fight for the Tang Dynasty, throw our heads and spill blood, if it is peaceful today, the emperor can't do this to us."
"What are you going to do? What can you do? Li Chao asked.
"We're going to fight!"
"How to fight? Rebellion? Li Chao asked with a smile. At this time, Li Chao was still smiling, which surprised Su Dingfang.
"Dingfang, it is impossible to rebel, if it is peaceful today and the people are healthy, if you really want to rebel, how many people do you think will be willing to follow the army? If the teacher is unknown, no one will respond to support. Besides, it didn't get to that point! β
Su Dingfang was anxious.
"Why hasn't it reached that point, now the emperor has done his best to depose the officials who have a good relationship with the teacher, and say that they are friends. In the next step, when the imperial court controls the situation, is it necessary to say that we have formed a party to plot chaos? β
"No, it won't get to that point." Li Chao shook his head.
He believes that Li Shimin will not really go crazy to that point, and now Jingzhong's actions can still be understood and accepted. The emperor only deposed many officials, and none of them were convicted, no one was imprisoned, no one was arrested, and no one was executed.
Things haven't gotten to that point yet.
That step wasn't so easy to take either.
Li Chao calculated that Li Shimin's actions were more of a bluff, which was deliberately startling the snake, and the emperor wanted to lure the snake out.
Li Chao and they have no reason to raise troops, and similarly, the emperor has no reason to kill the heroes now.
There is no reason for no one to dare to move.
But if Li Chao raised troops to rebel at this time, it would really give the emperor a reason.
He believes that Li Shimin is even more tentative at this time.
One wrong step now could trigger a chain reaction.
However, Li Chao was still shocked, Li Shimin was crazy.
has come to this point, how innocent the prince is.
"Teacher, did you say that the prince would be deposed this time?"
"If we rebel, the prince will definitely be deposed, and if we don't, the prince should be fine this time. But, I'm afraid I don't want to be the regent of the country right away. Li Chao sighed.
He also did not expect that Li Shimin would have such a big reaction to the parliament.
directly imprisoned the prince, almost abolished the prince, and killed the killer, killing Li Chao's allies in the court.
He really underestimated Li Shimin, and he was really ruthless at a critical time.
The prince is his own son, so it can be said that the prince's reputation has plummeted, and the blow to the prince is very big. After this incident, the prince's position is no longer as stable as before.
Hey, that's scary.
Maybe his steps were too big and touched Li Shimin's bottom limit.
"During this time, you still stay in Chang'an, don't come to my side again, so as not to cause unnecessary suspicion." Li Chao said to Su Dingfang.
"I'm going to go back to the Mo Nan fiefdom." Su Dingfang said, his county king's territory is in the Monan grassland in the north of Yinshan, which is also a good place.
"Don't go back for the time being, stay in Chang'an for a while. When the limelight has passed, please ask Your Majesty to return to the fiefdom again, so as not to cause misunderstanding. β
"But I don't feel safe staying in Chang'an."
Li Chao smiled, "You will be safe if you run back to the fiefdom?" How many soldiers do you have in your fiefdom? Even if you have 8,000 soldiers, what can you do if you can really gather so many soldiers? If the emperor really wants to move you, what is enough for 8,000 soldiers? There is no difference between staying in the fiefdom and staying in Chang'an, and if you stay in Chang'an, you can also reassure the imperial court, so as not to cause misunderstanding due to Your Majesty's suspicion. β
After hesitating for a moment, Li Chao still said, "If it really comes to that point, you can find a way to escape first, go to Mobei to Qinghai-Tibet or go to the Western Regions to Lingnan." β
"Hopefully it won't get to that point." Su Dingfang sighed.
The boat docked, and Su Dingfang went directly back to Chang'an.
When Li Chao returned home, his father also asked him worriedly.
"Has the situation really come to that point?"
"It's not there yet, it's going to be fine." Li Chao comforted his father.
Cui Yingying and other women were also worried, "Why is this happening?"
"It's fine." He comforted them one by one.
Back in the study, Li Chao summoned Ke Qing.
"It's not going to be good right now, we have to be prepared for the worst. Mobilize more manpower, pay close attention to the movements in Chang'an, prepare an escape plan, once the emperor is really about to start, I want you to promise to send my family away. β
"The secret letter informed Zhang Zhongjian in the South China Sea, asking him to prepare and gather the fleet of soldiers and horses, and if we really get to that point, we have to activate the emergency plan."
Ke Qing's face was heavy.
"Is there really going to be a war?"
"Just in case." Li Chao said, but he is not 100% sure, and he can only be prepared now, just in case.
As long as Li Shimin doesn't make the first move, he won't do it first this time.
Hankyung.
Cheng Qian was confined in the Wucheng Palace, heavily guarded by the Yulin Sergeant of the Northern Ya Forbidden Army, and no one could see the prince. Even the food and drink have to be checked by them and sent in by them.
In the Wucheng Palace, only the crown princess accompanied the prince, completely isolated from the outside world, and did not know the outside news.
Li Shimin still lives in the North Palace.
In the Changle Palace, Li Shimin listened to Wang Chengen's report.
It is the monitoring report of Six Doors on Li Chao that is reported.
"Li Chao is leisurely on the Ba every day?"
Li Shimin was a little surprised and surprised.
"Yes, Your Majesty, King Zhao has recently closed his door, no longer outsiders, and just lives on the Ba every day. A few days ago, Li Xiang also took his children to the field to pull seedlings and plant seedlings. β
Li Shimin's face looked better when he heard this, he remembered that Li Chao and Cheng Qian were like this before, pulling seedlings and planting seedlings with bare feet, unexpectedly, he is now the king of Zhao, and at this time, he can still have the leisure to take his children to plant seedlings.
"What are the changes in Li Chao's territory?"
"Back to Your Majesty, everything is as usual, and there is no change."
Nodding, he asked about the prince's recent situation.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince reads and writes in the Wucheng Hall every day, occasionally painting and playing the piano, which is very calm."
"Have the men and horses sent to the Western Regions to pick up the King of Qin left?"
"Yesterday we departed!" Wang Chengen replied in a low voice.
