Time flies quickly, in a blink of an eye, Li Shimin has been dead for six years, Li Xiu's children have also married one after another, Ning An successfully married Di Renjie, and now there are three children, in addition to Li Luo and others, they also have children one after another, making Li Xiu's family also have a lot of grandchildren.

As the eldest brother, Li An has been staying in Chang'an to take care of his parents, but he has an important position in the court, and now he has been promoted to Zhongshu Shilang, which is called a half-phase at the time, and then it is the position of prime minister, and Li Zhi has always trusted him very much, so Li An's burden is also very heavy, and he usually does not spend much time at home.

Not to mention Li Jin, he has been operating the navy at sea all these years, Wu Mingkong is also his virtuous helper, and the two of them gave birth to children and sent them directly to Li Xiu, in addition to the children of Le'an, Su Ya, Ning An and others, all of whom were also sent to Li Xiu to study, so although Li Xiu is unofficial and light, it also consumes a lot of his energy to educate these grandchildren every day.

Fortunately, today is the tenth day, the children in the family naturally have Princess Pingyang and their elders watching, he also took advantage of this rare opportunity to go out, riding a horse to Sun Simiao's medicine concept, speaking of which he is not young, usually like to exchange some health experience with Sun Simiao, you must know that Sun Simiao is now over 100 years old, but he is still in good spirits, for which Li Zhi also worships him to consult the doctor, but Sun Simiao refuses to accept it, just let one of his students enter the hospital to serve, It can be regarded as a substitute for himself as an official.

However, when Li Xiu came to Yaoguan, he was unexpectedly not here by the prophet Sun Simiao, which made Li Xiu also stunned, because as far as he knew, Sun Simiao rarely went to the clinic now, after all, he was too old, even if he was still healthy, but after all, he was still not as young as a young man, so he rarely went out in recent years.

At that moment, Li Xiu asked Sun Simiao's disciples in the medicine temple again, only to learn that Sun Simiao had been invited to Jinyang Palace, which made Li Xiu also worried, could it be that there was something wrong with his son's body?

Thinking of the above, Li Xiu also immediately turned his horse's head and went to Jinyang Palace, but when he first came here, he found that the palace walls were heavily guarded, which was not the same as the previous situation, which made him immediately guess that Li Zhi must have come, but this also made him even more worried, after all, even Li Zhi was alarmed, and it was likely that his son's condition was very serious, but he wondered why no one informed him of such an important matter?

Li Xiu naturally didn't dare to stop him when he wanted to enter Jinyang Palace, but when he came to the Zhixia Hall in front, he found that Li Zhi and Sun Simiao were sitting and talking, and there was a son next to him who was smiling and pouring tea for them, without the slightest look of illness, which made Li Xiu a little confused.

"Sir, why are you here?" When Li Zhi saw Li Xiu come in, he couldn't help but be surprised, but the son next to him looked at Li Xiu with a somewhat complicated gaze, and even some dodged and didn't dare to look at Li Xiu.

"I went to look for Sun Daochang, but I heard that he came here, I thought it was my son's illness again, so I came to visit, but looking at my son's appearance, it doesn't seem to be sick?" When Li Xiu said the end, he looked at his son with a little doubt in his eyes.

"Mr. misunderstood, it's not that I'm sick, it's that Brother Jiu has something to talk about with Daochang Sun." I saw that my son bowed and saluted at this time, but she kept her head down when she spoke, and her eyes never made contact with Li Xiu.

"It's okay!" Li Xiu was also relieved when he heard this, and then turned to Li Zhidao, "Your Majesty has something to do with Daoist Sun?" ”

"This ......" I saw Li Zhi hesitate for a moment, and then said, "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that the queen has not been able to give birth to an heir for me, and there are some rumors in the court, so I want to ask Sun Daochang if there is any good way to make the queen conceive an heir." ”

Hearing that Li Zhi came to find Sun Simiao was actually for the sake of Queen Wang, this made Li Xiu's heart sink, Queen Wang is also Wang Fangyi's cousin, since she married Li Zhi, she gave birth to two daughters, but she has never had a son, if this is not in ordinary people's homes, but for the royal family, it is a big thing, and it will even make Queen Wang's position unstable.

"Your Majesty, since the queen has given birth to a daughter, there will naturally be no problems with her body, and the minister has also taught Your Majesty this knowledge before, presumably you should also understand that giving birth to a boy or a girl is not something that a woman can control." Li Xiu said in a deep voice, he remembered that the reason why the queen in history was killed by Wu Zetian was that the biggest crime was childlessness, and now Wu Zetian has become Wu Mingkong, but the queen still has no heirs, which makes her position as the lord of the harem shake again.

"Mr. misunderstood Brother Jiu, in fact, Brother Jiu did not abandon the imperial sister-in-law, but some people in the court secretly discussed, this matter was transmitted to the imperial sister-in-law, which also made the imperial sister-in-law very sad, and the eldest brother also wanted the imperial sister-in-law to conceive another child, as long as she could give birth to the prince, it would also block the mouths of those people." The son was a little unhappy when he held Li Xiu, and hurriedly explained to Li Zhi at the moment.

"Yes, I also saw that the queen was distressed because of this matter, so I wanted to ask Sun Daochang if there was any way, but I was worried that others would know, so I invited Sun Daochang to my son." Li Zhi also opened his mouth to explain at this time.

Hearing that Li Zhi did not abandon the idea of establishing the queen, this made Li Xiu also breathe a sigh of relief, if the queen had any big faults, it would be nothing to abolish it, but in addition to having no son over the years, the queen has usually helped Li Zhi take care of the harem, and there is no reason to abandon it anyway, not to mention that the abolition of the queen is very involved, and it is likely to cause a huge political storm, which is also what Li Xiu does not want to see.

"I see, Your Majesty and the Queen have a deep relationship, but I misunderstood, and I ask Your Majesty for forgiveness!" Li Xiu immediately admitted his mistake.

"Mr. doesn't have to be like this, speaking of which, I just happened to have something to talk to Mr., so let's take this opportunity and let's go for a walk outside!" Li Zhi didn't mind standing up and laughing at this time.

"It's rare for Mr. to come to me, why don't you eat here at noon today, and I'll personally cook a few good dishes for Mr. and Brother Jiu!" The son also smiled at this time and said, Li Xiu used to come to visit him often, but something happened later, which made Li Xiu come to him much less.
