——Li Zhi is ill!
This is undoubtedly a matter of great significance for the current Great Tang.
Although he seldom intervenes in state affairs these days,
don't forget, he is still the Emperor of Great Tang.
Moreover, the Crown Prince Li Hong is still very young.
Any unforeseen event would be a major blow to a dynasty!
Gu Jing naturally understands this, and has no choice but to set everything aside and hurry back to Luoyang.
....
Luoyang.
An invisible gloom pervades the entire court, Li Zhi's sudden illness seems to have pressed the pause button on Great Tang's development.
Luckily, the current political system of Great Tang is still at its peak.
Including the stability of the Imperial Censorate.
This has formed the lower limit of the court, preventing Great Tang from falling into chaos.
What surprises Gu Yi is that Wu Zetian did not take advantage of this hiatus to act, and even rejected those Wu Clan youths.
She is genuinely in some awe of Gu Jing.
