  In paper 1 (Cheng et al. 2001) we have shown that the soft X-ray spectra of
two types of Seyfert 1 galaxies statistically vary differently with increasing
intensity. In order to understand how the spectrum of blazars changes, the
spectral shape variability of 18 blazars observed by ROSAT/PSPC mode are
studied by presenting the correlation of Hardness Ratio 1 versus Count Rates
(HR1-CTs). According to our criteria, 10 blazars show a positive HR1-CTs
relation, and only 2 blazars display an anti-correlation of HR1 versus CTs. The
rest 6 blazars do not indicate any clear correlation. From these we can see
that most blazars of our sample statistically show a hardening spectrum during
overall flux increase, though some vary randomly. By investigating the photon
index of these objects and different radiation theories, we argue that the
dominance of the synchrotron or inverse Compton emission in the soft X-ray band
may interpret the dichotomy of spectral variability well, and that different
spectral variations might represent a sequence of synchrotron peaked frequency.
