Wei Zhao had no desire for the throne. But that position could protect the people he wanted to protect.
Idle talk was just superficial words exchanged with Ying Fuyan.
If he became the emperor, would those officials under him just die from being overworked? Not to mention others, He Xuran would surely be willing to lend a hand to frequently visit the palace and see his niece.
Wei Zhao dared not easily trust people.
Especially Ying Fuyan, whom he had only met once.
In terms of their relationship, it was just a bit; they both simply wanted Emperor Ying to have a bad end. He didn't want to follow in his father's footsteps and let others decide life and death.
He was cautious of Ying Fuyan.
Ying Fuyan could come looking for him.
One, was truly in a dire situation.
Two, for Ying Fuyan, he feared there wasn't enough time to delay.
Ying Fuyan had power, but none in Shangjing. To ensure everything went smoothly, collaborating with Wei Zhao was the best choice.
