Chapter 156 Are They Going to Rebel?

The auspicious prophecies from the sky became more and more intense, and memorials flew to the imperial court like snowflakes. As the prophecies fermented, the news that the three kings Qinglong, Baihu and Xuanwu arrived in Suzaku City in the hottest season of July was also known to the spies.

Yan Chen looked at the memorials piled up on the imperial court, and was so furious that he almost lost control: "This is unreasonable! Are they going to rebel?!"

The chambermaids all knelt down: "Your Majesty, please calm down!"

Calm down your anger, and you will know how to calm him down all day long! He is already cowardly enough. If he continues to calm down, he may not even be able to keep the throne!

"Xuan Regent!"

"Reply to the emperor, the regent said that he is not feeling well and no one is allowed to disturb him!"

Yan Chen suddenly froze, his face turning green and white, and after a while he slowly turned his head to look at Wei Changhai: "The regent is unwell?"

Wei Changhai nodded.

The color on Yan Chen's face faded little by little, and even his breathing became rapid. What does this mean? Everyone is against him, right?

He suddenly didn't know what to say. He recalled all the things that had happened since he ascended the throne. He was confused, uneasy, fearful, regretful... All kinds of emotions came to his heart, and Yan Chen thought of his father's instructions before his death.

Wen Jin is available.

Yan Qing wanted to win over him, but the regent could alienate him.

Don't deal with anyone until you are firmly on the throne. Show weakness when you need to.

However he...

Yan Chen sat down stiffly, not knowing what to do for a moment. Looking around, the people he was afraid of made him more and more afraid, but there was no reliable person around him.

He regrets it now, is it too late?

He clearly ordered the three kings to besiege Suzaku City, but they refused to obey the order. They deserved death!

Also, who is spreading rumors about auspiciousness coming from heaven? Suzaku City is full of rebels and traitors, so where is the auspiciousness? !

"Your Majesty, Uncle Chen Guo and Duke Zhen Guo want to see you."

Yan Chen looked at the pile of memorials on the case, his heart was so confused that he didn't even hear the guard's words.

"Where is the Qintian Supervisor?" Yan Chen suddenly thought of Si Yuan, as if grasping a life-saving straw, he turned to look at Wei Changhai: "Send Si Yuan to see me immediately!"

"This slave obeys your order."

The guard who came in to report still bowed and stood aside. He was silent for a while, and then said: "To report to the emperor, Uncle Chen Guo and Duke Zhen Guo want to see you."

Yan Chen raised his head to look at him. He suddenly thought of something and became energetic: "Let them in!"

"According to the order."

After a while, Uncle Chen Guo and a middle-aged man walked in. Yan Chen's eyes lit up when he saw the two of them - especially Lord Zhen Guo, who was wearing a calm navy blue robe.

The two were about to salute, but Yan Chen had already spoken: "My lord, there is no need to be polite. You are here just in time. I have important matters to discuss with you."

"Is the emperor worried about the rumors outside?" Duke Zhenguo said in a calm tone, "Rumors should only stop with the wise. The emperor is of the orthodox imperial bloodline. It is nonsense to say that auspiciousness descended from heaven to Suzaku City. The emperor does not need to worry."

"But the three kings Qinglong, Baihu and Xuanwu have all gone to Suzaku City!" Yan Chen said in a slightly anxious tone. After he finished speaking, he realized that he was a little out of control and quickly calmed down. "The princes of the four vassals have heavy troops, and I have to guard against them."

Uncle Chen Guo said coldly: "The eldest princess is a scourge! Wherever she goes, there is chaos!"

For Uncle Chen Guo who traveled thousands of miles to Suzaku City and was left out for several days in vain, and was not only angry but also beaten, Yan Qing, the evil star, should be punished by everyone!

"There have been a lot of rumors outside recently, and I want to know who is controlling it." Yan Chen's expression was gloomy, "What do the uncle and the duke think?"

"The auspiciousness descended on Suzaku City from heaven, who is the beneficiary of this sentence?" Zhen Guogong said in a calm and sharp tone, "The Suzaku King and the eldest princess are the beneficiaries, so apart from the eldest princess, only the Suzaku King is the most likely."

Yan Chen angrily slapped Yu An: "Is Lu Ming going to rebel?!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. This matter needs to be discussed in the long term." Duke Zhen Guo lowered his eyes. "What I mean is that we can take this opportunity to deal with the Suzaku King He and the eldest princess. But firstly, we need troops, and secondly, we need time."

time?

What Yan Chen lacks most now is time.

"Rumors ferment so quickly, how can I have so much time?" After Yan Chen finished speaking, his tone became colder and colder, "Since the three kings have gone to Suzaku City, I will catch turtles in a jar and kill them all in Suzaku City. "What does the Duke of Zhen Guo think?"

Duke Zhen Guo thought this idea was a good one. If it succeeded, both the eldest princess and King Suzaku would be killed.

However, Suzaku City is heavily manned and well-defended, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. Even if we send troops to attack on the grounds of suppressing rebellion, who among the generals of the Manchu Dynasty, except the regent, can suppress the Suzaku King?

Yan Chen's eyes fell on the face of the Duke of Zhen: "Xiao Chongshan is not in Beijing, and the regent is ill. Who does the Duke think should be responsible for this counter-insurgency operation?"

The Duke of Zhenguo was silent for a moment, then knelt down and said, "I am willing to lead the troops to give it a try."

After a while, Wei Changhai came back with a nervous look on his face: "Your Majesty, the Qintian Prison said that the Chief...the Chief Supervisor is not here."

"Not there?" Yan Chen's expression suddenly changed, "What do you mean?"

"They said the supervisor had been away for some time."

Yan Chen's face was livid: "Why don't I know?"

"You deserve to die, slave!" Wei Changhai hurriedly knelt down, "They said that the supervisor was going to confirm something, which was related to the survival of the country, and he had to go. They didn't tell the emperor because they were worried about causing unnecessary panic and speculation, slave... …The slaves asked them where Master Jianzheng had gone, but they didn’t know..."

As he finished his words, the imperial study slowly fell into a dead silence.

The temperature in the air dropped little by little.

The Duke of Zhenguo and Chen Guojiu looked at each other, both of them looked a little solemn and uneasy.

Rumors were spreading everywhere in Zhuque City. The whole world was discussing that the emperor was unpopular, whether the prophecy of the Emperor of Heaven was true or false, and whether the royal family of Dayong would welcome a female emperor...

And the director of the Imperial Observatory disappeared at this time?
