Chapter 609: The sky is falling apart

As usual, Li Chongjun has to enter the palace every three or five days to meet him.

Every time he watched Wu Zetian drink the ginseng soup, his heart became more and more relaxed.

At first, there may be some guilt, this woman is her grandmother after all, but gradually, she doesn't take these things very seriously.

There is no father and son in the heavenly family, let alone grandchildren?

What's more, since this grandmother chose her second brother, then he is to blame for all this.

Therefore, Li Chongjun's mood gradually relaxed, because he obviously noticed that Wu Zetian's body was getting worse and worse.

For example, in the past few days, Wu Zetian's face has been whiter than in previous days, and he doesn't even have much strength to speak.

The doctor from the Tai Hospital went to the hospital once, and it roughly meant that there were some vague words. After all, Wu Zetian is too old, and anything can happen, so the imperial doctor can't diagnose it, and he doesn't dare to take medicine easily, people at this age, any kind of medicine, can become a tiger wolf, even if it is the right medicine, it may not be able to improve, and it may even be worse, so the imperial doctors are cautious and only dare to prescribe some prescriptions to recuperate their bodies.

After waiting for a few days, it was as calm as ever in Longmen Palace, but Li Chongjun had already begun to prepare.

Once the emperor dies, there are naturally many follow-up things that need to be solved, at least for the Wei family, what they need, of course, is themselves, only they can stand up and tell the world that the emperor died because of illness, then this matter is equivalent to a certainty, anyone who is suspicious, even if they can doubt the Wei family, can they still doubt themselves as the prince?

Up to now, the prince's appeal is obviously much stronger than that of the Wei family, and based on this alone, Li Chongjun feels good about himself.

These days, he is in charge of the country, although he does not dare to be too assertive. Most of the time, he still obeyed the words of Wei Chengqing, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, and went to him to discuss everything, and did not dare to overstep it in the slightest, but this taste of power still made him taste a little sweetness after all, and he suddenly realized that he really had a bit of the taste of the Ninety-Five, so the whole person was no longer as lifeless as before. Gradually, I began to feel more energetic.

As always, he went to the Xuanzheng Palace, where he sat on the side of the dragon couch, and then the ministers of the three provinces arrived one after another, Wei Chengqing came a little late, and everyone stood still.

Then, he began to discuss state affairs, Wei Chengqing, the waiter of the Yellow Gate. is always the most brilliant, and even now even the prime ministers of the three provinces are mostly silent now, and their words are becoming less and less. Wei Chengqing's words are more and more.

Li Chongjun is careless on the surface, but in fact he is looking at Wei Chengqing cautiously, quietly imitating his tone and learning his manners.

Even sometimes. Li Chongjun will have an illusion, as if he is the prince of the prison country, but he is the squire of the Yellow Gate.

But...... I've always been a man with my tail between my legs. He has been worried for half his life, and he doesn't seem to have any resentment, but he ...... It's just a little unpleasant.

"The performance of the governor of Zhaoxin Town, it is simply unreasonable, a small governor, is so unkind, the court has let the nearby towns rescue, what about him, but he still does not give up, and even uses hundreds of thousands of people in Zhaoxin Town to threaten the court, Your Highness, the minister thinks that if the court does not reprimand, it will only make him more pampered and arrogant, the court should be both graceful and powerful for the governors of all towns, how can it be blindly indulged."

Li Chongjun came back to his senses, and when he saw Wei Chengqing looking at him inquiringly, he was busy cheering up: "What Wei Qing said is very true, just do everything according to what Wei Qing said." ”

Everyone sitting here was silent about Li Chongjun's performance, and it seemed that everyone was very satisfied with Li Chongjun's current performance.

Those Wei party members, naturally don't want this prince to have too many ideas of his own, although Empress Wei is not there, but this temple is still the Wei family, not a prince who is in charge of the country can change.

But for those ****** disciples, it seems that they are also happy to see this, they very much hope that the prince can be patient, and if he can't bear it, he will make a big plan, and he must not be brave for a while.

This may be the most advantageous side of Li Chongjun, as the last hope of the Tang Dynasty at the moment, he seems to be able to get the understanding and understanding of others in everything he does.

Wei Chengqing smiled and said, "So, what does Your Highness mean, is this an order given to Zhaoxin Town?" ”

Li Chongjun looked at Wei Chengqing's friendly eyes, and couldn't help but want to laugh in his heart, Wei Shilang was confirming on the surface, but in fact it was more like some kind of temptation.

"Ah......" Wei Chengqing looked confused, and then said: "Naturally, naturally, this palace said it, just do what Wei Qing said, Zhaoyi Town...... It's ridiculous. ”

All of a sudden, someone got up.

Wei Chengqing said Zhaoxin Town, but Li Chongjun actually said that it was Zhaoyi Town, this Zhaoyi Town had long been occupied by Qin Shaoyou, absurd of course, but one is in Hebei, and the other is in Jiangnan, which ...... You can't hit it with eight poles.

Visible...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't seem to care much about listening to the government.

Wei Chengqing smiled meaningfully at Li Chongjun, he didn't intend to point out Li Chongjun's mistake, and was about to say something, when a eunuch hurriedly came in: "Seriously ill...... The Emperor is seriously ill ......"

There was an uproar in the Xuanzheng Palace, some people were happy and some were worried.

Wei Chengqing's face was calm, he pinched his fingers, the day when Wu Zetian was about to die was almost coming.

All this ...... Naturally, it was all calculated, and he couldn't help but glance sideways at the people around him, some were shocked, some were worried, and some couldn't hide a hint of joy.

As for Li Chongjun, he was naturally shocked and hurriedly said, "What...... Quick, go to Ziwei Palace......"

He had gone in a hurry with the eunuchs.

And this Xuanzheng Hall was as silent as death, everyone did not leave without permission, they were all waiting for news here, and Wei Chengqing had also quietly sat in the corner, and began to look very inconspicuous.

Almost everyone is controlling their emotions, and those who are happy in their hearts have long covered up their joy, and those who are distressed do not dare to show too much of it.

The hall was quiet, and the quiet pins could be heard, and only occasionally there would be a few uncontrollable coughs.

After waiting for a long time, someone stood up and said, "Your Highness is still in the future." There is no one to convey the news, and in my opinion, I am afraid that it will not be good. ”

No one answered him, and Wei Chengqing sat on the sidelines, too lazy to pay attention.

Then some people began to talk to each other, these people are all old ministers, most of them have experienced similar things many times, so they can be said to be experienced, just based on the length of time the prince has been visiting, whether anyone has come to report the latest developments. In these small details, many things can be seen.

After waiting for another half an hour, there was still no news, which confirmed the speculation.

Some people couldn't help but look at the few important ministers of the Wei family present, and when they saw that they were all calm, they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts.

If the emperor has three strengths and two shortcomings, the suspicion of the Wei family is not small.

As he spoke, there was finally a hurried footstep outside, and it was not long after. Seeing the crown prince Li Chongjun coming in a hurry, he lost his soul and looked sad, and walked into the Xuanzheng Palace. Everyone couldn't help but stand up and salute, but he just waved his hand tiredly, and then said weakly: "The emperor's typhoid fever has worsened. Now...... It's not long before I take my last breath......"

Everyone had their ears propped up, but their expressions were different.

Because everyone paid attention to the word typhoid fever of the prince. This is almost equivalent to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's determination that if the emperor has any three longs and two shortcomings, it is very likely that he died of illness, and since it is a death, then naturally, it is not the Wei family's hands and feet.

If so......

Those who wanted to jump out and question couldn't help but be silent, the prince said so, what else could he say? Since it is a death of illness, can it still be pointed to as a deer as a horse?

Moreover...... If it is really not the death of the disease, the Wei family will never give up at this time, and at the same time offend the prince, which is equivalent to questioning the prince's words, which is tantamount to displeasing both sides.

Wei Chengqing stood up: "Your Highness, is the news accurate?" ”

Li Chongjun said: "The diagnosis and treatment of the imperial doctor will never be wrong, the imperial physician Liu said, and it will only be these few days...... Ay...... Come on, report to Lin Yuan quickly, report to the father and mother, and ask them to return to the palace as soon as possible and preside over the overall situation. The matter of the mausoleum should not be careless, but now, there is a trouble, the emperor's mausoleum, which was originally built in Luoyang, has now moved the capital to Chang'an, and finally buried in the eastern capital or the western capital, but it is still good to discuss, and now it is ...... Things are in a hurry, just because they are in a hurry, but there must be no chaos, this palace ...... The heart is like numbness, I'm afraid I don't have this mind, so pay attention. ”

As he spoke, he sat on the side with a depressed face.

And they looked at him, each with a heart.

Apparently...... Now it's time to prepare for the aftermath, when it comes to this, then the emperor is afraid that he really won't live for a few days, and suddenly such a change is really unexpected, in fact, it's not just the 'prince' who is in turmoil, and many people here are afraid that they will start to re-plan for themselves.

Heavenly hunting, naturally it is impossible to learn from the Orion, and really ride a horse with a bow to find the beasts on the mountain in the forest.

There is a special palace here, in fact, in addition to tens of thousands of forbidden troops hunting and killing some beasts everywhere, the Son of Heaven and the queen, most of them are in this palace.

Li Xian loves to play, so the minister who accompanied him naturally wanted to accompany him, Li Xian was here, he seemed relaxed and happy, and felt that he was more comfortable here than in the palace, so he was quite happy, and Wei simply put down government affairs and stayed with Li Xian every day to watch him play.

Li Xian won more and lost less, but most of the lottery money won was rewarded back, so several close ministers were also happy to lose more to Li Xian.

When the fast horse urgent report came, it was still lively here, when a female official entered the palace, hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, the emperor is seriously ill, the prince has an urgent performance, please Your Majesty and Niangniang return quickly." ”

Li Xian was stunned for a moment, and several close ministers were also startled, they knew the severity, so they were busy reining in their smiles, and then obediently retreated to the side.

After a brief loss of consciousness, Li Xian seemed a little flustered.

The Mother Queen is seriously ill......

Of course he knew that if he was just an ordinary serious illness, he would never have asked him back in such a hurry, and the prince was quite stable, not a person who didn't know the severity, and he didn't dare to disturb his interest easily.

The only possibility is that the mother's life will not be long in coming.

Li Xian's mood was extremely complicated, for that mother emperor, of course, there was a flesh and blood relative, but other memories, I am afraid that only fear remains, he was so confused that he had to look at Empress Wei in a panic.

Merriam-Webster was much calmer.

Here, she has been waiting for news from Chang'an. Now that the news has indeed arrived, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, she didn't trust Li Chongjun very much, and she even thought for a long time that if Li Chongjun couldn't do this, she would have to think of other ideas.

But unexpectedly, it was done.

This made Webster's mood complicated, the woman she hated to the core, is she going to die after all? She even had some suspicions that all this was just an illusion, but then when Li Xian looked at her uneasily. Merriam-Webster calmed down.

She said almost without hesitation: "Your Majesty, the emperor is your majesty's biological mother, the biological mother is critically ill, how can you be a son of man, how can you have fun outside, your majesty should immediately set up and return to the palace to visit the emperor, and at the same time serve under the emperor's sickbed, so that he can take care of him." The emperor is very human, in addition to filial piety, His Majesty should also invite monks into the palace and pray for the emperor in the Ming Hall. If it is really a last resort, an edict should be issued to grant amnesty to the world and increase merit for the emperor. Hope...... The emperor has his own blessing and can turn the crisis into safety. ”

Li Xian shuddered, then stood up: "Yes." Yes, the queen is right, it should be...... I should go back to the palace immediately, I can't stay here, and ...... Everything will be done according to the Queen's wishes, come on...... Come...... Hurry up and prepare, and tomorrow morning, you will go back to the palace. ”

"Your Majesty." Wei interrupted Li Xian and said word by word: "Wait until tomorrow, I'm afraid it's too late, Your Majesty should take a light car and set off now, and the palace will set off with Your Majesty." ”

"Okay, okay, then...... That's it. Li Xian almost obeyed Webster's words.

Chang'an City has begun to be lively, countless news has been flying all over the sky, the fast horses that spread news everywhere come and go, in an inconspicuous courtyard, Shangguanchen pushed open the window and looked at the bustling streets outside.

He pursed his lips and withdrew his gaze, and behind him, dozens of people were already standing with their hands tied.

"It seems...... The emperor is afraid that something will happen. Shangguan Chen frowned.

News from the palace has come out.

Shangguan Chen didn't expect things to develop so quickly.

It is said that the clans have entered the palace, and the two princes are accompanying Wu Zetian, as for those ministers, although they can't go to accompany them, they must be waiting for the final confirmation news with anxiety at this time.

"It's an eventful season, it's really an eventful season." Shangguan Chen sighed, if Wu Zetian really had any accidents, it was obvious that His Royal Highness King Wei would fall into an extremely passive situation.

A second prince alone is obviously not enough, the problem now is that since Empress Wei has made a move, and before doing it, she chose to go out of the palace to hunt, which means that she is 100% sure that even if Wu Zetian dies, she is not afraid of any eggs, and this ...... That's the crux of the matter.

"Why don't you worry about messing around? Unless, someone protects her, and the person who protects her must be His Royal Highness the Prince. Shangguan Chen couldn't help but sneer.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince completely fell to Empress Wei, although beforehand, there were some signs, in fact, the whereabouts of His Royal Highness the Prince, Zhu Lou has been inquiring, and many signs can show that the crown prince Li Chongjun may now be Empress Wei's person.

Merely...... Shangguanchen still didn't expect that Li Chongjun's name was actually the emperor, this ...... It's an eye-opener.

And now, things have been reversed all of a sudden, the entire Chang'an has been shaken, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has openly claimed that the emperor is sick and died, which is equivalent to a certainty, and all of a sudden, the people's hearts have been stabilized.

In this way......... What action should Zhu Lou take?

Glancing back at those subordinates who were on standby, Shangguan Chen suddenly felt that his involvement was somewhat important, and his every word and deed, every move might affect the success or failure of His Royal Highness King Wei.

Taking a deep breath, he suddenly thought of his sister, so he sighed faintly, so he said lightly: "Continue to inquire about the news, no trace of any clues, don't let it go, all the spies, all the people who have a relationship with us, also take out some news from their mouths, from now on, any little bit of news, even if there is anything unusual about a eunuch in the palace, we must report it immediately, and try our best to let our people approach Ziwei Palace, where the ban is strict, But now it's messy, you can try to contact Shangguan to wait for the edict, and in the next twenty-four hours, no one is allowed to rest, including me, and the same is true. ”

The big chapter is delivered.
