Han Yi really hasn't seen Li Hong for some time, and during the New Year, he still tries to accompany his family at home for the New Year, as well as to visit those elders, but according to Han Yi's understanding of Li Hong, Li Hong should not slack off on government affairs, even if he is slack, there is no reason to even see the minister.

This Li Hong is the crown prince, the future emperor, and he can't ignore it, so after Han Yi learned about it, he immediately rushed to the East Palace.

But Li Hong immediately met with Han Yi.

This made Han Yi a little puzzled, thinking, it seems that Zhang Wenguan is making a little fuss about them!

But when he saw Li Hong, he knew that Zhang Wenguan was really not making a big fuss.

"Your Highness, your face doesn't seem to be very good?"

Han Yi saw Li Hong wrapped in a thick coat and sitting on the couch, his eyes were blank, his face was very pale, and he was slightly panting, looking very weak.

Li Hong looked at Han Yi with some apprehension, and was silent, but a eunuch beside him said: "Shang Shuling, during the Chinese New Year, His Royal Highness's body will be a little unwell. ”

Han Yi frowned and asked, "Then why didn't you come and tell me in time?" ”

The eunuch glanced at Li Hong and said aggrievedly: "Yes--- His Royal Highness didn't let the villain tell Shang Shuling." ”

Han Yi looked at Li Hong in surprise and said, "Your Highness, you are not feeling well, why don't you say it?" ”

Li Hong snorted for a while, and then said: "My father asked me to be the regent of the country because he was sick, and now my father has not recovered, if I let my father know that I am sick, my father can only take the illness out to deal with government affairs, I just hope that I can persist until my father recovers, so I didn't say it." ”

Han Yi was stunned for a while, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Li Hong is young after all, his idea is very simple, that is, he hopes that his father can recover before he comes out to deal with government affairs, but he doesn't know that in fact, his physical condition is also very important to Datang.

Han Yi couldn't pretend not to know, and it was impossible to help him hide his illness, so he immediately called Lu Shigua to diagnose Li Hong.

The cardinal ministers did not leave, but waited in Shangshu Province, and were shocked to learn that Li Hong was sick, because they had never heard of Li Hong being ill, so they immediately rushed over.

.....．

.....．

"Lu Shilang, how is His Highness's health?"

As soon as this Lu Shigua came out of the room, Li Ji and the others surrounded him and asked with a nervous expression.

Lu Shigua sighed: "His Royal Highness's body is originally relatively weak, and he should have avoided being affected, but since His Highness was in charge of the regent of the country, he has to review and approve the performance every day, resulting in a lack of physical support. However, with His Royal Highness's current physical condition, I am afraid that he can no longer supervise the regent of the country, not only that, but he also has to recuperate for a long time. ”

When the ministers learned about it, they were all stunned.

On the one hand, they are very sympathetic to Li Hong, how old is Li Hong, he is in his early tens, he is directly tired and sick, and Li Hong's filial piety is really touching. But on the other hand, everyone is a little at a loss, the emperor is still sick in bed, and now that the prince is sick again, this is more difficult to do.

"Have you informed Your Majesty of this?"

Liu Xiangdao asked with a frown.

Zhang Wenguan pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty is still sick now, you shouldn't let Your Majesty worry about it anymore, but this is not a trivial matter, if we don't know about it, if something goes wrong, then we will all be to blame!" ”

Li Ji nodded and said, "The old man also thinks that this matter should be told to His Majesty quickly." ”

Han Yi snorted and said, "This matter can't be hidden, but the matter of the northwest, don't tell Your Majesty for the time being, so as not to worry Your Majesty, anyway, Your Majesty also knows about Tubo's annexation of Xiaobolu." ”

Li Ji nodded and said, "The old man immediately asked someone to send a message to Pei Xingjian, asking him not to act rashly and closely monitor the movements of Tubo." ”

Han Yi nodded.

No one dared to hide this kind of thing, because no one could afford to carry this pot, so these important ministers immediately informed Li Zhi of this matter.

After Li Zhi learned about this, he immediately rushed to the East Palace, he was suffering from a chronic disease, but not paralysis, once he got sick, he needed to recuperate, after a few months of recuperation, his body also recovered some, at least he was able to get out of bed and walk, but his body was still very weak, especially his eyesight was very bad, and now he didn't have glasses.

When he came to the East Palace, Li Zhi learned that Li Hong had hidden his illness in order to allow him to take care of his body, and he was immediately moved to tears, and their father and son both loved to cry, but the two of them cried together.

When he came out of Li Hong's room, Li Zhi's eyes were still red, and when he saw Han Yi, he regretted it: "I really regret not following Aiqing's advice and letting the prince take care of his body first, so that today I have even affected the prince, and I am really a father in vain." ”

Why did he regret and feel guilty so much, not because he didn't listen to Han Yi's advice, but because he asked the prince to come out, and training the prince was just one of the reasons, and there were a lot of political factors, that is to say, he was mainly for himself, not for the prince.

Han Yi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty should not blame yourself, this is not what Your Majesty wants, in fact, the minister also agreed with His Royal Highness to supervise the regent of the country at that time, because this is indeed a good opportunity to experience, His Royal Highness can benefit a lot from it, in the process of promulgating the new policy, His Royal Highness made several suggestions, which are also very good, and the country and the people have benefited from it, but it is just ......" ”

Li Zhi shook his head again, sighed again, and asked Lu Shigua again: "Lu Shilang, how long will it take for the prince's illness to heal?" ”

Master Lu said: "Returning to Your Majesty, the cause of His Highness's illness is mainly because His Highness's physique is naturally weak, and if he wants to be completely cured, he may need a long time of conditioning." ”

Li Zhi said: "How long?" ”

Lu Shigua pondered for a moment and said, "The minister thinks that it should be persevering. ”

Li Zhi frowned and said, "According to your wishes, won't the prince never be able to handle government affairs?" ”

It would be very embarrassing if the prince could not handle government affairs.

Lu Shigua hurriedly said: "The minister does not mean this, the minister means that even if the prince's body recovers and can handle government affairs, he should always pay attention to his body, it is impossible to take it lightly like this time, with the current physical condition of the prince, if he is seriously ill, it may be difficult to recover. ”

Li Zhi couldn't help but feel sad when he heard it, sighed silently, and after a long time, he asked, "By the way, how is the implementation of the new policy?" ”

Han Yi hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, the implementation of the new policy is very smooth, and the imperial court has done what it should do, and the next step is to rely on the people to struggle and work hard to recover from the predicament." ”

Li Zhi hummed slightly, was silent for a while, and then said, "I have to bother you during this period." ”

He really didn't want to give power to the prime minister, but there was nothing he could do now.

Han Yi arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, the ministers will do their best." ”

Li Zhi said: "You guys should retreat first." ”

"Wechen retired."

Not long after Han Yi and Lu Shigua left, Wu Meiniang hurried over, she was also holding a child, it was the second son Li Xian, as soon as she entered the house, she saw Li Zhi sitting in the house, Wu Meiniang couldn't help but be stunned.

In this year, the two have never seen each other, and when they suddenly meet, both husband and wife feel very embarrassed.

But Li Xian was of course very excited when he saw his father, so he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "The child sees his father." ”

Wu Meiniang woke up in shock, and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "The concubine sees Your Majesty." ”

Li Zhi saw that Li Xian was in good spirits, his eyes were bright, and he would definitely be a beautiful man in the future, so he felt a little relieved, and rarely showed a smile, pulled Li Xian up, and said to Wu Meiniang: "You are also exempt from courtesy." ”

Wu Meiniang straightened up and said with an anxious face: "Your Majesty, the concubine heard that Hong'er ......!" ”

Li Xian raised his little face and asked with a frown, "Father, is the prince's brother sick?" Is it serious? ”

Li Zhi touched Li Xian's head with a smile and said, "Don't worry, your prince brother is just a minor illness, not in the way, and he will be fine in a while." Go inside and see Hong'er, he wants to see you too. ”

Because he didn't know what to say, the atmosphere was awkward.

"Yes."

Wu Meiniang hurriedly pulled Li Xian and walked inside.

After half an hour, Wu Meiniang walked out while wiping her tears, and saw Li Zhi still sitting in the room, her eyes slightly closed, as if she was pondering, and hesitated again and again before she said loudly: "Your Majesty hasn't left yet!" ”

Li Zhi opened his eyes slightly, glanced at Wu Meiniang, and asked, "Where is Xian'er?" ”

"Talking to his brother inside."

Li Zhi nodded slightly, and then sighed: "Hong'er is sick because of me, I don't want to go anywhere now, I just want to accompany him here." ”

Wu Meiniang said: "Your Majesty, Hong'er's body is important, your body is even more important, why does Hong'er hide her illness, don't you just hope that Your Majesty you are healthy." If Hong'er sees Your Majesty but you are sad for him, he will not feel good in his heart, Your Majesty, the concubine sees that you have not recovered yet, so go back to rest first, there are concubines here to watch, and the concubines will definitely take care of Hong'er. ”

I have to say that the one who knows Li Zhi best is Wu Meiniang.

When Li Zhi heard this, his expression was a little moved, and he nodded and said: "You are right, Hong'er has done so much, just to hope that I can recover as soon as possible, and I can't live up to Hong'er's kindness." Speaking of this, he suddenly looked up at Wu Meiniang, and after a while, he said, "Then please ask the queen here." ”

In fact, for a long time, Li Zhi was deliberately preventing Wu Meiniang from contacting the prince too much, but now he knows that what Li Hong needs is his mother, and he doesn't worry about others taking care of Li Hong, he does it all for Li Hong.

Wu Meiniang's eyes gathered another layer of mist, and said: "Actually, all this is because of the concubine, the concubine... Concubines.... ”

Li Zhi waved his hand and sighed: "Don't think about this before, queen, you have to take care of your body." ”

"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern."

"Hmm."

Li Zhi stood up and said, "Then I'll go back to the palace first." ”

"Your Majesty."

"No need, you can accompany Hong'er more."

Li Zhi waved his hand, and then went out.
