Great Zhou, the imperial capital, is still as quiet as usual.

However, this kind of silence is very different from before.

Here, everyone felt the oppressiveness of the air, as if even breathing had become much more difficult.

They looked solemn and panicked, as if they had realized that the world was about to change drastically.

In other places in the Great Zhou, some troops also appeared without any warning. These troops were strange, as if they had been summoned by something, and were gathering at an extremely fast speed.

No one knew where these troops were going, but some people with discerning eyes had already vaguely noticed that these troops seemed to be converging towards Kyoto.

Could it be? !

A crazy idea began to swirl in people's minds.

But no one dared to believe it, and no one was willing to believe it.

Ever since Zhou Zheng ascended the throne, there have been countless rebels, but the final results were all quite miserable.

No one can ever truly survive and persevere.

Is there anyone who is not afraid of death?!

But this is not scientific.

Faced with Zhou Zheng today, even a powerful country like the Great Xia can only temporarily avoid him and may not even dare to engage in a head-on battle with him, let alone some rebellions within the country.

But again, some well-informed people seem to have received some instructions.

They looked in the direction of Kyoto, their brows furrowed, as if they were thinking about something.

......

These changes are quietly taking place in various places in the Great Zhou.

Inside the palace, the situation was even worse.

Everything seemed normal, but no one noticed that a coup had taken place in the deepest part of the palace.

All the court officials were almost completely divided into two factions.

One group is naturally led by Mu Yun and Gong Tan, and the other group is composed of officials from various factions in the court.

These officials seemed to have nothing to do with each other on normal days, but now they were closely united.

They seemed to share a common hatred for the enemy and stared at Gong Tan, Mu Yun and others opposite them.

Looking around, 85 percent of the officials in the court stood against them.

Apart from Gong Tan and Mu Yuan, there were only a few people including Sima Cheng.

This huge difference made Sima Cheng and others look pale, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

Today's court meeting is different from previous ones.

Because today, the entire court is completely divided.

Gong Tan, Mu Yun and others have the same attitude, that is, to wait for Zhou Zheng regardless of everything!

As long as Zhou Zheng does not receive the news, there will be no changes in the entire court.

Not to mention deploying troops and generals, even the court decrees cannot be modified.

But the opinions of the officials on the opposite side were quite clear. They did not agree with Mu Yun and Gong Tan.

They believed that the world was now in chaos and that Confucian scholars were completely incapable of governing the country, let alone replacing previous officials. Therefore, they wanted to restore the previous Zhongzheng system and the previous method of selecting talents.

At the same time, soldiers and generals all over the world were quite disgusted with political review.

Therefore, political review must be abolished at all costs.

In addition, the country is now in a state of disrepair and the imperial treasury is empty. To solve this problem in a short period of time, the best way is to restore the previous land system.

We can no longer use methods such as the Green Crop Tax.

In short, all the policies introduced by Zhou Zheng just after he came to power should no longer exist.

Instead, we must eradicate it completely at all costs.

After hearing the opinions of these court officials, Gong Tan and others' faces became extremely gloomy.

It seems that these officials take the world as their responsibility, and it seems that they are doing it for the country, but in fact, these people are just standing on the side of the aristocratic families.

If Mu Yun, Gong Tan and others agreed today, then the imperial power accumulated by Zhou Zheng would completely disappear.

This is definitely not what they want to see.

Similarly, if Yidian nodded in agreement today, it would mean that the battle between Zhou Zheng and the aristocratic families was lost before it even began.

Because everyone knows that this is undoubtedly a way for the aristocratic families to regain economic power, the power of talent selection and the military power.

Therefore, Gong Tan, Mu Yun and others understood the hidden meanings in it as soon as they looked at each other.

It would be wishful thinking to expect them to agree to these demands.

"impossible!"

After a long time, Mu Yun finally uttered three words.

Impossible, this is their attitude and also Zhou Zheng’s attitude.

However, many court officials were not surprised at the attitudes of Mu Yun and Gong Tan. It was obvious that everything was under their control.

If these people agreed so easily, then they wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.

"Prime Minister, is it possible for His Majesty to make the decision?!"

An official stood up, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice had a hint of yin and yang.

"Your Majesty has asked me to take charge of the government affairs. Unless Your Majesty personally agrees, no one can change these matters."

Mu Yun looked at him coldly, without any fear on his face.

"In that case, please come out, Your Majesty."

"The world is in chaos now. If we don't take action, I'm afraid it will affect the foundation of the court."

The official did not pay attention to Mu Yun's words, but shook his head aggressively.

These words excited all the officials.

They all wanted to ask Zhou Zheng to come out.

Unfortunately, Gong Tan and Mu Yun sneered at this pretentious approach.

These people have long known that Zhou Zheng is not in the palace, so they are so arrogant.

Otherwise, even if they were given ten times the courage, they would not dare to say such words.

"how?"

"Your Majesty is not in the palace?"

Some officials finally stopped hiding the truth.

They stood up and asked in a deep voice.

Gong Tan and Mu Yun looked at each other and said nothing.

And keeping silent at this moment is the biggest answer.

"Since Your Majesty is not in the palace, we need to discuss many matters of state together."

"Today, we will not waste time talking to the Prime Minister."

"If we want peace in the world, some things should be abolished."

"Can't wait even a quarter of an hour!"

"If His Majesty blames us in the future, we will bear the full responsibility!"

Other ministers echoed this.

But these echoes seemed so ridiculous to Gong Tan and Mu Yun.

Take it all on your own?!

They are worthy of saying these four words.

"My Lords, please don't make the mistake!"

"Most of you are scholars. If you really want to fight, few of you can fight."

Gong Tan had long been fed up with these two-faced people.

On weekdays, he is timid and does not dare to act rashly.

Now, I find that the situation has changed drastically, and I have some strange thoughts.

It's even so arrogant that it's unacceptable.

Such people really make Gong Tan feel sick.

Therefore, Gong Tan was merciless and threatened him directly in person.

Ok? !

As expected, this sentence instantly calmed down the originally excited ministers.
