    When the soldiers of the Zuo Yulin Army surrounded the Horai Palace, other soldiers of the Yulin Army also started to take action. From the north of the Xuanzheng Palace, all the palaces from the Yintai Gate on the left and right to Xuanwu Gate and Chongxuan Gate.  Heavy troops were stationed, and the gates in the south were all led by the left and right Jinwu guards led by Helan Minzhi and Qiu Shenji. Those generals who were unwilling to obey were all controlled.  Not only the Daming Palace, but also all the gates in the Taiji Palace were completely controlled. Most of the city gates in Chang'an City were also controlled by the generals arranged by Wu Zetian. For a time, thousands of horses galloped in Chang'an City.  Officials of rank five or above in Beijing were urgently summoned to the Xuanzheng Hall to discuss matters.  Outside the Xuanzheng Hall were guards from the Zuo Yulin Army led by Chen Yi's subordinate Qi Biliang. They carefully searched every official who entered the Xuanzheng Hall and only let them in if no abnormality was found. This made some uninformed officials  The officials were panic-stricken! Wu Zetian, who was dressed in court uniform, was waiting at the Xuanzheng Hall before the courtiers. Her cold face made the ministers even more shocked. Many ministers were communicating with their eyes, but no one dared to speak and discuss in private.  There was no need for Wu Zetian to announce anything, and the uninformed ministers also guessed that a major change had occurred in the court! After a while, Chen Yi and Wei Xuantong also hurried in. After Chen Yi entered the palace, he nodded to Wu Zetian to express the special gift Wu Zetian had delivered.  Mission accomplished.  After Chen Yi and Wei Xuantong announced the edict to abolish Li Xian, they finally stayed to deal with the deposed Queen Wei.  "Take the life of this bitch Webster!" This was Wu Zetian's secret order to Chen Yi and He Lan Minzhi, but in the end it was Chen Yi who asked for the order to complete it.  "Wei Shi, a person who was extremely evil in the eyes of Wu Zetian and who was bent on bewitching Li Xian, could no longer let her live.  And Chen Yi would not let Webster survive at such a critical and delicate time! Although it is cruel to personally remove a woman who has had close contact with him, under such special circumstances,  That's the only way to do it.  If Webster yells desperately.  If you shout something out of self-protection, or to drag someone into trouble, the situation will become uncontrollable, and Chen Yi will not tolerate this situation under any circumstances.  If we really want to save Webster's life and complain about it, not only will all our previous efforts be in vain, but his life may also be lost, and Webster can only die! However, Webster died after being force-fed poison.  The vicious look in his eyes made Chen Yi shudder a little, and he knew he would keep this woman any longer.  She must have yelled out a lot of things, and he was lucky to have taken cruel measures in time, otherwise he would have been troubled by Webster and ruined everything.  The situation in Debao Palace and everywhere in Chang'an City is stable and under control.  After Wei's family and others promoted by Li Xian were controlled, Wu Zetian finally felt relieved.  Nearly all the ministers were summoned to the rear of the Xuanzheng Palace.  Wu Zetian, dressed in court uniform, walked to the front of the palace.  After signaling all the ministers to be quiet, he said in a very sad and angry voice: "Dear ladies, I have called you into the palace today because we have something very urgent to announce!" After a pause, Wu Zetian walked to the front of the palace and became more serious.  sound.  "The emperor wants to hand over the world to the Wei family. He has promised not only to promote all the Wei family members to high-ranking officials in the court, but also to hand over the world to Wei Xuanzhen. In order to avoid chaos in the world, I follow the late emperor's order.  , reprimanded the emperor, but the emperor ignored my advice and insisted on going his own way. He also wanted to lead the soldiers of the Yulin Army to fight. I had no choice but to follow the late emperor's order and announced that I had deposed Li Xian as emperor and replaced him with the crown prince Li Chongrun.  The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!" "Ah?" Many ministers exclaimed almost at the same time.  They all expected that something important must have happened if they were summoned to the palace so urgently to discuss matters. However, they did not expect that it was the Queen Mother who, in accordance with the emperor's last edict, deposed her son's throne as emperor and replaced him with the crown prince, which was her own.  Grandson Li Chongrun became emperor, which shocked the ministers far more than Li Zhi's death.  There were signs of Li Xian's death, but there were no signs of Li Xian being deposed.  It is not an exaggeration to describe the Queen Mother¡¯s decision as thunderous.  But the real situation is something they cannot know. Too many ministers are full of doubts.  Perhaps anticipating that the ministers would be confused, Wu Zetian explained the matter herself, and then asked Pei Xingjian, Xue Yuancao, Chen Yi, Helan Minzhi, Wei Xuantong, Pei Yan and others to state the situation one after another.  After listening to so many people¡¯s stories, those doubtful ministers finally figured it out, but many people still blamed the real cause of the incident on the increasingly irreconcilable conflict between the Queen Mother and the Emperor.  But the emperor said that he could hand over the world to the Wei family. This idea was intolerable to anyone, even if some ministers believed that Li Xian was deposed because of the increasing fight with the Queen Mother.It was intense, but Li Xian deserved to be deposed for saying such things.  The promotion and appointment of so many family members surnamed Wei a few days ago has made many ministers angry. If something like this happened today, it is believed that Li Xian is to blame.  As soon as the statement was finished, some "smart" ministers stood up and expressed their full support for Wu Zetian's handling of this matter in accordance with the late emperor's order. They all said that if the emperor was allowed to act so recklessly, the world of the Tang Dynasty would change.  It's possible that someone from the Wei family will get it one day. If the Queen Mother does this, Emperor Gaozu, Emperor Taizong, and Emperor Gaozong will fully support it if they know better.  Of course, some ministers had reservations and felt that deposing the emperor so rashly was a bit of a joke.  However, those who hold these opinions are ministers with low official positions. They also know the weight of their voices in the court. In addition, they are all shrewd people. The prime ministers in the political hall know the ins and outs of the whole incident and they fully support it.  No one stood up to question Wu Zetian's decision. Instead, they were all filled with indignation at the emperor's actions. This also shows that what the emperor did made everyone in heaven and everyone angry.  Under today¡¯s situation, standing up and speaking for the emperor is asking for trouble.  After announcing the cause of the incident, Wu Zetian also immediately ordered people to carry out the newly enthroned emperor Li Chongrun.  Li Chongrun, who had just started talking and walking, was surrounded by his wet nurse and several palace ladies and walked out.  The child was curious and saw so many people standing in the hall, everyone was wearing different clothes. He was very curious and had no fear. He waved his little hands and screamed, and drool flowed from his chin to the clothes on his chest.  It's very cute, but it makes Ninjoon want to laugh, but no one dares to laugh.  The newly appointed emperor is so young, and many people are well aware that in the next few years, before the emperor grows up, the political power of the Tang Dynasty will again fall into the hands of the Empress Dowager Wu Zetian.  Many people were also surprised that it was precisely because the only Li family heir who could inherit the throne was so young that Wu Zetian would so quickly announce the abolition of Li Xian's throne so that she could legitimately handle court affairs on behalf of the new emperor.  However, the courtiers who had such thoughts ignored one person, that is Chen Yi, who was the mastermind of this matter.  Chen Yi would not tolerate it. After Li Chongrun was established as emperor, Wu Zetian continued to handle court affairs.  Aren¡¯t there many ministers who take care of life?  Such ministers continued to be entrusted with the power to assist the government after Wu Zetian announced the new king. Chen Yi believed that with these people around, Wu Zetian would not be able to do whatever he wanted like when Li Zhi was alive.  And his father, a practical little emperor, would definitely not let Wu Zetian get her wish. He wanted to create a new sky for his son and hand over the complete Tang Dynasty to Li Chongrun.  Chen Yi also knew that after Li Xian was deposed and completely disappeared from the historical stage one day, the burden on his shoulders became heavier. Not only did he have to compete with Wu Zetian in wits and courage, but he also had to compete with his uncle He Lan Minzhi.  .  Of course, protecting Li Chongrun, raising him up, and finally being able to rule personally and become the real emperor of the Tang Dynasty were what he needed to do his best.  Things are starting well now and progressing smoothly. Chen Yi believes that as long as no one knows that Li Chongrun is his son, then all his ideas can be realized! There are only two people who know about this, and that is Wei  Wei and he are dead, so only he knows Li Chongrun's true identity. As long as he doesn't tell this secret, it will remain a secret forever.  After the decision was supported by all the ministers, Wu Zetian was quite happy, and the palace announced the rewards and punishments for some ministers.  Of course, those who will be rewarded are those who have made meritorious services in this incident.  The Wei family who almost soared into the sky were also severely punished. Wei Xuanzhen was exiled to Leizhou, Wei Hongmin was exiled to Qiongzhou, Wei Xun, Wei Hao, Wei Dong and Wei Xianquan, Wei Lizhen's four sons, were demoted to common people and exiled to Anxi.  Those officials who were favored by Li Xian were also punished to a greater or lesser extent, and those who had good relations with the Wei family, as well as those who wanted to be protected and flattered by the Wei family, were also punished.  The only exception was Chen Yi, who was promoted by Li Xian to the position of Inspector of Schools, Youpuse. Wu Zetian did not remove him from the post of Inspector of Schools, Youpuse. He also removed the word "Inspection of Schools" and formally appointed him.  He was appointed as the minister¡¯s right servant! And Li Chongrun, a child who was just about one year old, was elected as the emperor. It was impossible for him to have any ability to deal with court affairs. Wu Zetian took over the important affairs of the court as a matter of course! However, because many people were entrusted with it  The ministers who assisted Li Xian were then appointed as ministers who assisted Li Chongrun. These ministers were responsible for the basic affairs of the DPRK. Wu Zetian's power was not as great as when Li Zhi was seriously ill! There were also changes in the selection of prime ministers in the Zhengshitang.  The prime ministers were selected as follows: Pei Xingjian, Zuopu She, Shangshu, Chen Yi, Minister of War, Chen Yi, Xue Yuanchao and Li Jingxuan, Zhongshu Ling, He Lan Minzhi, Zhongshu, Cen Changqian, Zhongshu, Liu Yizhi, Xingbu Shangshu, and Di Renjie, Xingbu Shangshu.  ?Pei Yan, the assistant minister, and Wei Xuantong, the official minister.  Di Renwei was selected under the strong recommendation of Chen Yi, and Liu Yizhi was a close confidant of He Lan Minzhi. Naturally, Pei Yan was asked to be included at Wu Zetian's request! Pei Xingjian, Chen Yi, He Lan Minzhi, Xue Yuanchao, Li Jingxuan, Cen Changqian  , Wei Xuantong and the other seven are ministers who assist the new emperor!
