Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Although he has been a father several times, His Majesty Li Er was overjoyed to hear that the queen was pregnant again.

Cai Heng nodded his head heavily, and said firmly: "It's absolutely true, I believe that the Empress is pregnant with a dragon seed."

"Wahhahaha, that's great." His Majesty Li Er suddenly burst into laughter, and praised, "It's really the blessing of the ancestors, and the Li Tang royal family will have a newcomer. No, I have to go to the Taimiao tomorrow and tell the ancestors. "

Seeing that His Majesty Li Er was very excited, Cai Heng suddenly had a trace of melancholy on his brows, and said with some hesitation: "However, Your Majesty, there is a situation that I still want to report to you truthfully, so that you can have a score in your heart." .”

Hearing Cai Heng's tone, His Majesty Li Er suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and he was very polite, so why was his tone a bit sluggish?

Then he also looked at Cai Heng, and said in a deep voice: "Speak, I listen, you must tell the truth, and you must not hide it from me!"

"Chen Cai Heng, obey the order! Your Majesty, this is the situation..."

Chapter 697 Infatuated Emperor, Stubborn Queen

"Report to the emperor, this is the situation."

Cai Heng carefully observed the expression of His Majesty Li Er, and said softly: "The empress has given birth to the emperor, His Royal Highness, King Wei, Princess Changle, Princess Chengyang, and Princess Douer, that is, two sons and three daughters. His body is getting worse and worse, his body is weak and his blood is insufficient, and the empress suffers from an incurable qi disease, so I am worried..."

Speaking of this, Cai Heng didn't dare to say any more, because His Majesty Li Er's face was so gloomy that it was only a thin line away from Long Yan's fury.

"Go on!"

His Majesty Li Er yelled: "Are I the one who shies away from medical treatment? Tell me your worries."

Cai Heng let out a sigh, relaxed his mind a little, and continued: "I am worried that the queen will be pregnant in October, and when it comes time to give birth, there will be disasters and difficult births!"

hum~

His Majesty Li Er's mind suddenly became buzzing and dizzy, and his face was frighteningly cold. After a long time, he asked coldly: "Then Doctor Cai's suggestion is to let me and the queen not want this child?"

"Ah? It's about the heirs of the royal family, how can I make a judgment? I just told His Majesty the worries in my heart. As for the final choice, the emperor and the empress will decide."

Cai Heng is not a fool, although he is an imperial doctor, but after all, the empress is pregnant with a dragon son and a phoenix daughter, how can he, an outsider, make random decisions.

But despite this, His Majesty Li Er still heard Cai Heng's thoughts. The implication was that the child was not allowed for the safety of Empress Changsun.

Compared with Lin'er in the queen's belly, His Majesty Li Er was more concerned about the safety of Empress Changsun.The relationship between Li Shimin and his eldest grandson Wugou is not fake, it has always been cited as a good talk by later generations.

In an instant, His Majesty Li Er no longer hesitated, and immediately had an idea in his mind.

Then he said to Cai Heng: "Doctor Cai, thank you for reminding me. You didn't tell the queen about this, did you?"

Cai Heng shook his head and said: "I only told the empress that I was pregnant. For the rest, I was worried that the empress would think wildly after hearing this, so I simply didn't say anything, and came out to report to the emperor first."

"Okay, very good, you are very thoughtful!"

After His Majesty Li Er praised Cai Heng, he waved his hand and said: "Okay, I will explain to the Queen, you can go down first. By the way, go back and discuss with the imperial doctors of the Imperial Hospital to open up and raise your spirits." The prescription for nourishing blood is out. I think the queen will need it in a few days."

After saying this, Cai Heng could tell that His Majesty Li Er had made up his mind not to have this child in order to protect the Queen's safety.

Then he answered yes, and hurriedly left the Ganlu Hall.

His Majesty Li Er turned back and entered the bedroom, and went to visit Empress Changsun.

After a while, His Majesty Li Er came down to Empress Changsun's bed, and saw the Empress looking at him weakly.

However, from the Queen's eyes, he still saw a bit of motherly love, and his right hand was gently stroking the coat of the belly that had not yet been bulged.

His Majesty Li Er sat down, stroked the messy hair on Empress Changsun's forehead, and asked earnestly, "Empress, do you feel better?"

Empress Changsun hummed, and suddenly raised her head to look at His Majesty Li Er, with pleading eyes, but said in a very resolute tone: "Your Majesty, my concubine has made a decision, and I will try my best to keep this child."

"Ok?"

His Majesty Li Er looked at Empress Changsun in amazement, and said in amazement: "Why did the Empress say that? Could it be that you heard what I said to Imperial Doctor Cai?"

In one sentence, the truth and reality were revealed, and the expression of Empress Changsun was instantly gloomy.

As soon as the words came out, His Majesty Li Er was also very regretful, and said with a wry smile: "Queen, I was tricked by you, hehe, I fell for you again!"

Empress Changsun heard her husband's innocence, she couldn't help but burst into a forced smile, and said softly: "Your Majesty, this concubine knows that her body is getting worse. It is an indisputable fact that the disease is getting worse. And although the symptoms of Qi disease have been controlled, the root cause of the disease has not yet been resolved. Get rid of it, the last time the concubine gave birth to Douer, wasn't it dangerous? Besides, when Doctor Cai congratulated the concubine just now, the concubine noticed that his complexion was strange. After a little guessing, the concubine felt that There is a reason for this. Especially when the concubine sees His Majesty coming into the bedroom, her eyebrows are dark and gloomy, how can she be happy to be a father again. Therefore, Your Majesty doesn’t need to say it, the concubine knows it well. Hehe... ...This is not a concubine's words to the emperor."

Speaking of the last sentence, Empress Changsun was a little playful, trying to dispel His Majesty Li Er's concerns.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty Li Er let out a long sigh, and sighed: "Since you know everything, Queen, then I will tell you the truth. This child came at an inappropriate time, the risk is too great, and it may even kill you. Empress, listen to my advice, this child cannot be taken."

"No!"

Empress Changsun forced herself to sit up, leaned against the head of the bed and shook her head stubbornly, and said, "The more this is the case, the more extraordinary this child will be. Your Majesty, this child must be born to my concubine."

His Majesty Li Er saw that the queen was so uncharacteristically stubborn, so he couldn't help scolding with some displeasure: "Queen, we already have Chengqian, Taier, and three princesses, Changle, Chengyang, and Jinyang. You take another risk for the sake of this child. In case something unexpected happens, do you want to be separated from heaven and earth forever and leave me alone in this world?"

This is an era of underdeveloped medical care, not to mention dystocia can kill people, even an occasional cold can kill people.

Therefore, it is no wonder that His Majesty Li Er is facing a big enemy.

But Empress Changsun is also strange, she who has always been obedient to His Majesty Li Er is also as stubborn as a bull today, and cannot listen to her husband's persuasion.

She still shook her head stubbornly, and said, "Your Majesty, why is this concubine willing to leave you alone in this world? As this concubine said, I know my own body, and this concubine has the confidence to give birth to this child. Adding more incense to the great Tang Dynasty. At this time, the concubine can get a son from Guanyin, which proves that this son will be extraordinary in the future, how can he bear to abandon him? Besides, mother and child are united, I beg your majesty to understand the concubine as a mother It's been a painstaking effort."

All in all, there is one meaning, this child, the concubine is going to be settled!

Of course, His Majesty Li Er couldn't take this risk, so he decided decisively: "I can't let you take this risk, queen, we have a chance to have another child in the future, but there is only one queen of mine, and that is you—Guanyin slave girl."

"emperor!"

Seeing her husband's resolute attitude, Empress Changsun begged again with tears in her voice: "Your Majesty, this concubine promises to give birth to Lin'er smoothly, and this concubine is confident..."

"What guarantee do you take? Why are you so confident?"

His Majesty Li Er was annoyed, and sternly shouted: "Queen, my Guanyin servant girl, you can't be so willful and reckless, this is a matter of life and death, everything is at my disposal."

"Emperor calm down!"

Empress Changsun saw that she couldn't bear it by force, so she could only plead softly: "Your Majesty, the concubine is just pregnant, so why don't you call Miracle Doctor Sun into the palace and listen to what Miracle Sun has to say before deciding on the child's fate?" Stay, how about it? After all, you and I don't know the art of Qi and Huang, so His Majesty should trust the medical skills of Miracle Physician Sun, right?"

"Sun Simiao?"

His Majesty Li Er was slightly taken aback, as the so-called blood is connected, the child in the empress's womb is His Majesty Li Er's blood after all, why doesn't it feel distressed if you really want to kill him?

The reason why he was so cruel was that he was worried that the queen would suffer from dystocia.

Now when the Queen mentioned Sun Simiao, he naturally trusted Sun Simiao's amazing medical skills in every possible way.

but……

He still shook his head and vetoed: "Sun Simiao's wild clouds and wild cranes don't know where he died now, and he will definitely not be able to find anyone else in a while. Forget it, this child is destined to have nothing to do with you or me. Empress, listen to me, let the imperial doctor give it to me tomorrow." You adjust a..."
