sick man

Su Hongrui has been in poor health since Li Chengyan took him back to Yunze personally. Li Chengyan was afraid that he would overthink, so he concealed the contract with the Prince of Xiyi and sent him to the residence of General Zhen Guo, that is, Su Jian Live in the mansion to relax.Su Hongrui was grateful to Li Chengyan for his thoughtfulness and love for him. After ten days, he returned to the palace after recovering better.On the night when he came back, he lay in Su Hongrui's arms and told him the good news with a blushing face.

Yuan Xi was also present at that time, when Li Chengyan heard that Su Hongrui was pregnant, he was overjoyed immediately, and he ordered Yuan Xi to ask the imperial doctor to take the pulse and see if the little prince is well.It was almost late at night, Su Hongrui didn't want to work for the imperial physician, so he stopped Li Chengyan, and promised to have the imperial physician take a careful pulse check the next morning.Although Li Chengyan was a little unhappy, he agreed, and said that he would watch it with his own eyes when he came back early.

Su Hongrui was at a loss for his sudden willfulness, so he agreed with a helpless smile.

But the next day, on the way to the morning court, Li Chengyan's Yu Huan was stopped by a flustered nanny.

Yuan Xi recognized her as a member of the Huanyi Bureau, because she had been in the palace for a long time, and everyone respectfully called her Zhang Momo.But he didn't know what this honest and steady man wanted to do when he stopped Yu Xun early in the morning.

Li Chengyan was also very puzzled, but when he saw her lying on the ground and yelling that he had something important to tell His Majesty, he thought about it, waved back the guards surrounding her, and allowed her to speak.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Nanny Zhang took a few steps forward and knelt down again. She reached out and groped carefully in her sleeves for a while, then found a letter tremblingly, and held it above her head with both hands.

"Yuanxi."

Li Chengyan sat up straight and motioned Yuanxi to fetch it.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Yuan Xi stepped forward to take the envelope, checked it carefully in his hand, and after confirming that there was no problem, he tore open the unsigned envelope and presented the letter inside to Li Chengyan.

Li Chengyan picked up the letter paper and read it with doubts on his face. After seeing it, his face became tense. At the end, he crumpled the letter paper and threw it on the ground, cursing shamelessly.

"Where did you get this letter?"

Li Chengyan stared at his red eyes and asked, Mammy Zhang was so frightened that she lay on the ground and trembled, trembling and authentic,

"Reply, report back to Your Majesty! This servant found out... when she was washing the queen's underwear! I thought this letter was weird, so I wanted to send it to Your Majesty... I know I was wrong, and I will never dare again ! I beg Your Majesty to forgive me and spare my slaves!"

"Wrong?"

Li Chengyan laughed coldly.

"You admit it quickly! How can you get your hands on the empress's stuff? I can't even find such a private letter, and you, a little servant, actually found it by chance? Tell me! Who sent you to frame it? Queen's!"

"Your Majesty, forgive me! This servant found this in the queen's clothes. No one sent a servant here... The servant is wronged, the servant is wronged!"

Nanny Zhang cried and cried out for being wronged.

"Come here, take her down."

As soon as Li Chengyan waved his hand, two guards came out and dragged Aunt Zhang away who was lying on the ground.

"Yuanxi, pick it up."

With a gloomy face, Li Chengyan pointed to the letter paper that he threw not far away.

"Yes."

Yuan Xi picked up the ball of paper and handed it to Li Chengyan, not daring to say a word.

"Walk."

Li Chengyan tightly squeezed the ball of paper in his hand, his eyes were full of gloom.

Yuan Xi was naturally worried, not knowing what was written in the letter, which made His Majesty so angry, Zhang Nanny swore that the letter was found in the Queen's clothes, could it really be related to him?

That morning, because of this letter, Li Chengyan beat up the ministers, accusing someone of fabricating perjury evidence to harm the queen, and ordered Yuan Xi to read the letter sent by Nanny Zhang in the morning to the ministers.

Yuan Xi's scalp became numb as he read it. This letter is none other than the love letter written by Prince Xiyi to Su Hongrui.It described in explicit language the three months of good time they spent together in the Xiyi Imperial Palace, and said that due to the situation today, and because of the indemnity that Yunze offered with both hands, they had to temporarily separate. He married Su Hongrui as his queen in a glorious manner.

"His Majesty……"

When he read the inscription, Yuan Xi's knees trembled and he knelt on the ground.

The ministers also knelt down one after another, and everyone used their heads to guarantee that they did not frame the queen.Instead, he asked Li Chengyan where he got the letter from.

Li Chengyan ambiguously mentioned the origin of the letter, and the ministers were puzzled, and then turned their attention to Su Hongrui, the center of the incident.Most people say that everything is not groundless, and it is indeed against common sense that General Su can return unscathed after being captured for several months.Throughout the ages, no matter the civilians or the royal family, if they are captured, they will live a miserable life that is worse than death. As the Queen of Yunze, Su Hongrui has beheaded countless Xiyi people and accidentally fell into their hands, so he deserves more. Suffering is.To be treated so courteously by the Prince of Xiyi is a bit...unreasonable.

"Bastard!"

Hearing that Su Hongrui was being slandered arbitrarily, Li Chengyan was furious and reprimanded,

"Hongrui has no second thoughts about me! Since he has my heir, how can he get entangled with the prince of Xiyi! I will tell all the family about this matter, but I remind you not to make fuss about the queen, I will not In the draft, there will be no more concubines!"

As soon as the words fell, the ministers looked at each other in disbelief. You must know that the queen and the emperor have been married for seven years and have no heirs. Why did they happen to be pregnant after being captured and returned?

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to send the imperial doctor to diagnose the queen's pulse!"

All the ministers discussed for a while, and suddenly they all knelt down and begged Li Chengyanxuan, the imperial doctor, to diagnose Su Hongrui's pulse in the name of caring about the safety of the dragon's heir.In fact, he just took the opportunity to find out how old the fetus in Su Hongrui's stomach was, and whether it was really the Prince Xiyi's.

Li Chengyan naturally knew their intentions, and if he put down his words, if there was no doubt about the heir of the dragon, those who made such suggestions would be punished.

The ministers boldly agreed, and for the sake of justice, they chose two prime ministers as representatives to go with Liu Yuyi, the director of the imperial hospital.

But neither the general Su Jian who was training in the military camp nor the queen mother who went to Putuo Temple to pray knew about this matter.

When the group arrived at Chaoyang Hall, they happened to see a little maid rushing out in a hurry.She raised her eyes and saw Li Chengyan, rushed over as if seeing a savior, knelt on the ground and kowtowed,

"Your Majesty, hurry up and ask the imperial doctor to come and see the queen!"

Li Chengyan thought something happened to Su Hongrui, so he hurriedly asked,

"Tell me more clearly, what happened to the queen?"

The little maid wiped her tears and replied,

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Empress seems to know how he was rescued by His Majesty. Once he heard that Yunze had promised Xiyi so much money, the Empress...just..."

"So what?"

Li Chengyan said anxiously.

"I just vomited a lot of blood and passed out..."

The little maid was so frightened by Li Chengyan's angry look that her face turned pale, and she felt resentful in her heart for the eunuchs on duty in the outer palace.If they hadn't mentioned this matter, the queen would not have known about it, let alone fainted from anger.

"Yuanxi, you will deal with those people later."

Li Chengyan took a deep look at Yuanxi, pushed aside the little maid and rushed in with the imperial doctor.

"Yes."

Yuan Xi frightenedly replied, and raised his feet to catch up.

As soon as they entered the inner room, they saw Su Hongrui lying on the bed with his eyes tightly closed and his face very pale.A court lady stood by the bed, still wiping the corners of his mouth.Li Chengyan walked over to push her away, took the handkerchief and continued to wipe the blood on the corner of Su Hongrui's mouth, while urging the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat him.

"Your Majesty...the queen..."

After Doctor Liu took the pulse of Su Hongrui who was still in a coma, his expression became extremely strange, and he spoke hesitatingly. Yuan Xi, who was kneeling beside the bed and holding the medical box, felt a thump in his heart, and immediately had a bad feeling.The two prime ministers also looked at each other with subtle expressions.

Li Chengyan glared at Doctor Liu, and said impatiently,

"What's wrong with Hong Rui? Doctor Liu said it's okay, I won't blame you."

It seems that with this guarantee, Doctor Liu felt relieved, thanked Li Chengyan, lowered his eyes and said hesitantly,

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the empress fainted only because she was out of breath, and she is not in any serious health condition. I have indeed diagnosed double pulses...just..."

"Just what?"

The urgency on Li Chengyan's face slowly sank, and his expression changed slightly.

"His Majesty……"

Physician Liu swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva with difficulty, knelt on the ground with a plop, kowtowed,

"I dare not lie to Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

"Why did Doctor Liu say that?" Li Chengyan looked straight at him, his voice was a little cold.

"Your Majesty, I... I deserve death for my crimes!"

Physician Liu fell on the ground trembling all over, and replied,

"According to the minister's diagnosis, the empress is indeed pregnant, but...but the fetus in his womb is less than three months old. Your Majesty, isn't this..."

"presumptuous!"

Before he could finish speaking, Li Chengyan raised his eyebrows, and the handkerchief in his hand fell directly on Liu Yuyi's back,

"How can my empress of Yunze allow you to slander me like this!"

"Please appease the emperor, please appease the emperor!"

Seeing Longyan's fury, Liu Yuyi was frightened, put his hands on the ground, knocked his head loudly,

"Even if I have the courage, I don't dare to talk nonsense, it's just... the empress, he is indeed only two months pregnant..."

Although Imperial Physician Liu did not clearly say who the child belonged to, the queen was banned from Xiyi for three months, and now the fetus in her womb is only two months old. No matter who it belongs to, it cannot be His Majesty's.What's more, with the love letter from Prince Xiyi, the child's biological father seems to have been confirmed...

"To shut up!"

Li Chengyan stepped forward and kicked Liu Yuyi to the ground.Liu Yuyi was not very old, and his body was fairly strong, but he couldn't slow down his kick, which showed how angry Li Chengyan was.

The rest of the palace staff and the two prime ministers all knelt down tremblingly, fell on the ground and shouted, "Please calm down, Your Majesty!"

Yuan Xi also shouted along with them, but secretly turned to the sleeping person on the bed.

How can it be?

How could it be the same as what was written in that letter...

After being furious, Li Chengyan fell down on the chair beside the bed, staring at the side face of Su Hongrui, who was unaware, and clutching the armrest tightly with both hands, as if he was trying to restrain himself.

The two prime ministers exchanged glances, Qi Qi bowed to Li Chengyan and said,

"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Liu is the head of the Imperial Physicians. He has outstanding medical skills and medical ethics. He absolutely dare not slander the Empress with his words. Today, he has diagnosed that the biological father of the fetus in the Empress' womb is suspicious. Please His Majesty deal with it according to the laws of Yunze. The people of Yunze who suffered from the war will give an explanation."

Only then did Li Chengyan's attention turn back to them. The cold gaze made the two prime ministers panic, and they knelt down on the ground one after another, but they did not change their original intention and insisted on begging Li Chengyan to deal with Su Hongrui.

Li Chengyan was silent for a long time before slowly uttering a good word.
