Chapter Fifty-Six: The Great Joy of the Court......

In the East Palace, Li Hong was busy for a day, and it was already dusk when he arrived at the East Palace, but the strange thing was that today Pei's rare did not wait for him in the East Palace, only the little girl was busy in the Inner Palace alone.

"Qian'er, what about Wanying?"

Li Hong asked.

"Your Highness forgot? Today, the queen mother returned to the palace, according to the system, our mother will go to the palace to greet her! ”

Pei Shi knew that Li Hong doted on the little girl, although he was not as indifferent as last time, he really gave the little girl a ceremony, but now Qian'er is also the palm of the East Palace, and the female official of the eighth grade.

So the little girl is now Pei's right-hand man, and when she heard that Li Hong didn't even know where her mother had gone, she pouted and said.

Li Hong patted his forehead, he is busy these days, the emperor and queen return to Beijing, the ministers will greet at the gate of the city, and the queen will also meet with the high-grade women in the harem, according to the system, the crown princess is more than the marquis of Guannei, so she naturally has to wait in the harem.

However, because of Pei's background, Empress Wu has always disliked this daughter-in-law, not to mention that it is so late today, and the banquet should be over, why hasn't Pei come back yet.

Li Hong couldn't help but be a little worried.

"Your Highness, Niangniang is back!"

Just thinking about it, Li Hong heard an attendant come in to report, and then he saw Pei's dress in pale cyan and walked in.

"Wanying, why did you come back so late? But the queen mother is embarrassed for you? ”

Li Hong asked with a concerned face, no wonder Li Hong was not at ease, because of the selection of the crown princess, it was really not very pleasant, and it was inevitable that the Empress Wu would have a bad heart.

Unexpectedly, Pei Shi had a smile on his face and said softly.

"Your Royal Highness, rest assured, the concubine is fine, but the queen mother suddenly fainted when she met the wife, and the concubine has been accompanying the queen mother in the palace, and she came back a little late......"

Is Empress Wu sick?

Li Hong's eyes widened in disbelief, you must know that his queen mother has always been known for her energy, it is normal to say that Li Zhi is sick, but Li Hong has never seen the queen of martial arts sick since he can remember, is it really because he was emotional today and was angry with himself?

"What is the condition of the queen mother? Can you declare the imperial doctor? ”

Although the relationship between Li Hong and Empress Wu has always been not very good, after all, they are biological mother and son, and when he heard that Empress Wu was sick, Li Hong couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart, and asked with concern.

However, after hearing Li Hong's words, the smile on Pei's face became more and more obvious, and with a hint of eccentricity, he smiled at Li Hong.

"Of course, the imperial doctor was passed on, and the queen mother actually ......"

"Your Highness, it was Your Majesty who summoned His Highness into the palace!"

Before Pei's words were finished, Qian'er hurriedly walked in and said.

Raised his eyes and looked at the sky, it was this hour, why did Li Zhi summon himself into the palace, could it be that something happened again?

Li Hong thought about it and felt that only the fact that Empress Wu fainted would make Li Zhi summon him into the palace at this time.

I just wanted to ask a few more words, but I didn't expect Pei Shi to hear the news that Li Hong was going to enter the palace, and he refused to say anything more halfway through, only urging Li Hong to enter the palace quickly.

Li Hong had no choice but to change his clothes and enter the palace.

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, most of the emperors lived in Taiji Palace, but later after Li Zhi succeeded to the throne, because of his weak body, and Taiji Palace was damp and cold, he moved to Daming Palace, and Empress Wu also followed to live in Zichen Palace.

Li Hong hurried to Daming Palace, and was led all the way to Zichen Hall by Wu Liangfu, making Li Hong more and more sure that he was here because of Empress Wu's fainting.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can come, His Royal Highness King Yong, His Royal Highness King Ying, and His Royal Highness King Yu are already waiting in the palace, so I will send you, Your Highness!"

As soon as Wu Liangfu saw Li Hong, he pulled him and said.

What the? How can it be so big?

What happened to Empress Wu, even the two little children Li Xian and Li Dan called over.

Li Zhi actually has a lot of sons, a total of eight, but in fact, the four sons born to him by Empress Wu are all here.

"Wu Daban, I heard that the queen mother fainted in the afternoon, what did the imperial doctor say?"

Li Hong asked quietly, all of them were mysterious, which made Li Hong curious.

"Your Highness will know when you go in!"

Wu Liangfu kept silent and said with a smile.

It seems that there is nothing to do, anyway, judging by their reactions, it should be fine......

Li Hong was helpless for a while, and strode into the main hall.

"Hong'er is here, come here!"

As soon as Li Hong entered, he saw Li Zhi sitting on the side with a smile, chatting with Li Xian, the king of Yong.

Empress Wu was dressed in plain clothes, sitting on the bed with a smile on her face, and the two little children of King Li Xian and King Li Dan of Yu were chattering around Empress Wu, looking very excited.

"The son has seen his father and the queen."

Although Li Zhi had instructed Li Hong to be free at will, Li Hong still showed meticulous courtesy, which gave Li Zhi a headache.

"Father, the son heard that the queen mother fainted at the banquet in the afternoon, I don't know what the situation is now?"

What's going on? Li Hong muttered in his heart.

Why is everyone like this?

"Hong'er, you don't know? The crown princess didn't tell you? ”

Li Zhi asked with a little surprise.

"Well, Wanying only said that the queen mother fainted, and when the son heard about it, he hurried over......"

Li Hongcai wouldn't say that Pei was hanging on his appetite and refused to tell him.

It's so shameless!

"Hehe, Hong'er has a heart!"

The smile on Li Zhi's face couldn't be hidden, and looking at Li Hong's serious and respectful appearance, he couldn't help laughing, which made Li Hong embarrassed for a while.

Did he say something wrong?

"Hahaha, the imperial doctor came to see it in the afternoon, and said that your mother's fainting was due to the fatigue of the journey, and her emotional excitement, plus overwork and physical exhaustion after returning to the palace!"

A mysterious smile appeared on the corner of Li Zhi's mouth, and he said slowly.

What the?

Just kidding! Li Hongcai didn't believe that such a trivial matter could make Empress Wu faint, what kind of overwork, obviously he saw Empress Wu refreshed at noon.

What's more, the evil smile at the corner of Li Zhi's mouth has been fully exposed, and Li Zhi did not tell the truth.

"Well, there's going to see the queen mother!"

Li Hong had no choice but to go to the couch and ask the Empress Wu for peace.

It made Li Zhi a little embarrassed and said to Li Hong.

"Hong'er, don't worry, I'm afraid you're going to have another brother or sister!"

Li Zhi's words made Li Hongdeng stunned on the spot.

Empress Wu is pregnant?!

Li Zhi has not added a new person to his harem for many years, so there is no doubt that he must be his mother, but if Li Hong remembers correctly, Empress Wu is forty-one years old this year, and the youngest son of the two of them, who is now looking excited in front of Empress Wu's bed, is also seven years old.

That's a ...... made Li Hong a little speechless.
