Chapter 57: I know that I don't have a good heart......
Li Zhi and Empress Wu's faces were also slightly red, if they talked about it, they were now at the age of holding their grandson, but they wanted to add another child, and they were really embarrassed to say it in front of their son.
"Congratulations to the father, congratulations to the queen mother!"
But this is a good thing after all, Li Hong was stunned for a moment, and then spoke.
"Your queen mother has been pregnant for more than a month, and the imperial doctor has just diagnosed it, and your queen mother has been too tired these days to cause syncope, but fortunately they are safe!"
Li Zhi was in good spirits at the moment, as if he was several years younger, and said with a smile.
"Father, this time I am afraid that the royal sister has a spirit in the sky, and I want the father, the queen and the queen to have both children come!"
Li Hong was inspired and said with a smile.
This kid just couldn't have come at the right time!
In the afternoon, Li Hong rashly mentioned the dead princess Anding, which can be said to have lifted the scars of the Empress Wu, although the relationship between Li Hong and the Empress Wu is not very good, but after all, the Empress Wu is Li Hong's mother, Li Hong does not want to make the relationship too stiff, but it was really helpless at that time.
Now that this incident has just been discovered, Empress Wu was diagnosed with pregnancy at night, which is a godsend coincidence.
If this child really gave birth to a princess, then Li Hong would not have uncovered Empress Wu's scars in the afternoon, but would make the emperor feel that it was Empress Wu who let go of the things of the year and let Princess Anding send another daughter over.
At this time, people are more or less superstitious, if this daughter is really born, then Li Hong's actions in the afternoon are not only faultless, but meritorious!
I'm afraid that Li Zhi and Empress Wu will be happy because Li Hong untied the knot in their hearts for them!
However, as soon as Li Hong's words came out, the hall was silent for a moment.
"Hong'er is arrogant, how can stability have such great ability, whether it is a son or a daughter, the father is happy!"
Li Zhi glanced at Empress Wu worriedly, and said with a reluctant smile on the corner of his mouth.
Of course, he hoped that what Li Hong said was true, and Li Zhi knew that if this was the case, the knot in the heart of Empress Wu for so many years would be completely opened.
But the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, he and Empress Wu have already given birth to three sons in succession, so he is really not sure that this child will be a daughter.
If the words are too full, and when the time comes, he will be born as a son, even if it will make the heart knot of the Empress Wu heavier!
"Father, you believe in the sons, it must be like this, it must be because the queen sister can't bear to leave the queen mother, so she wants to come back to accompany the father and the queen mother, not to mention that the father and queen mother have always been benevolent and peaceful, and they will have both children and daughters!"
Li Hong arched his hand and said with an oath.
Just kidding, how could he let go of this God-given opportunity.
He clearly remembered that Li Dan was not the last child of Empress Wu and Li Zhi, their last child was the princess of Taiping, who was loved by thousands of people.
Originally, his child wondered why he had never seen this sister, but now it seems that the child that Queen Bacheng is pregnant with this time is her.
"Is what Hong'er said true?"
Empress Wu got up and asked Li Hong, although her voice tried her best to remain steady, Li Hong could still hear a hint of trembling.
It seems that this knot in the heart of the Empress Wu is indeed very deep!
"Definitely!"
Li Hong said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, the concubine is going to pray for the emperor!"
Seeing that Li Hong was so firm, Empress Wu slowly stroked her lower abdomen, her face was full of love, and she turned around and entered the apse.
Empress Wu believes in Buddhism, since the death of Princess Anding, Empress Wu set up a Buddha statue in the apse to pray for Stability.
Now I'm afraid I'm going to the apse and I'm still vowing to go.
"Hong'er, you're really reckless!"
Looking at the back of Empress Wu's hurried steps, Li Zhi shook his head and said angrily at Li Hong.
"But it's okay, Xian'er, you take your two younger brothers back first, I have something to discuss with your fifth brother!"
But then, Li Zhi removed the smile on his face and said to Li Xian, the king of Yong, who had been by the side of Empress Wu.
Seeing that Li Xian obediently took Li Xian and Li Dan to retreat, Li Hong also cleaned up his mood, because he knew that Li Zhi was going to talk to him about business next.
Even if it was a great joy that Empress Wu was pregnant, it would not be enough to summon a few of them into the palace at this time, Li Zhi must have something bad to say in front of outsiders to talk to Li Hong.
And most of it was because of Empress Wu's pregnancy.
"Hong'er, it is said that the case of the assassination in the imperial city has already begun?"
After settling down, Li Zhi slowly spoke.
But these words suddenly made Li Hong's heart tighten, and it was really because of Helan Minzhi's matter!
"Back to my father, after the ministers of the political hall received the will, the three divisions tried the case, but during the trial, because Zhou Guogong was involved in the case of abduction and trafficking of women, the assassination case in the imperial city has not yet been concluded, but Zhou Guogong is the mastermind behind the abduction and trafficking of women, and it has been determined."
Li Hong's face remained unchanged, and he replied respectfully.
Of course he knew that Li Zhi had already known the results of the triage of the three divisions, and now asking him was just to test his attitude.
Li Hong couldn't figure out what Li Zhi meant, so he had to answer truthfully.
"Ahem, that Hong'er, this child of Minzhi was raised by his father, usually a little ridiculous, and he also has some festivals with you, but if it is said that he sent someone to stab you, I am afraid that he does not have the guts, and I am afraid that the abduction and trafficking of women is also caused by being deceived by others......"
However, Li Zhi was obviously not satisfied with Li Hong's answer, coughed lightly twice, and said with a little embarrassment, because even he himself didn't quite believe his own words, and Li Zhi didn't know what Helan Minzhi had done outside all these years, and the impeachment of him was all over the room, but Li Zhi had always pretended not to know with guilt for Helan Minzhi's mother, Mrs. Han.
Li Zhi said half of his words, but Li Hong said coldly.
"Father, although the son-in-law and Zhou Guogong have a holiday, they will not do such an obscene method of framing him, and the case of abducting and trafficking women is a personal admission by Zhou Guogong, and the result of the trial of the three divisions has nothing to do with the son-in-law, as for the assassination of the son-in-law, the trial has not yet been concluded, and the son-in-law does not dare to make a conclusion."
It's not above the court right now, so Li Hong is a little presumptuous, not to mention that even if he doesn't talk about the assassination, just because Helan Minzhi dares to stretch out his claws to those children, Li Hong will not let go of this bastard.
Even if Li Zhi intercedes, Li Hong will not waver.
"You!"
Li Zhi's face turned red for a while, and he was a little angry.
This son is usually so sensible, so he is so stubborn at this time!
However, remembering the festival between Li Hong and Helan Minzhi back then, Li Zhi sighed and said softly.
"Hong'er, the past is over, Minzhi is the only nephew by your mother's side after all, can't you let him go?"
Li Zhi's posture can be said to be very low, almost in a consultative tone, which made Li Hong sigh.
His father is this kind of temperament, soft-hearted!
When he was assassinated, he swore that no matter who it was, he would never let it go, but now that he found out that it was Helan Minzhi, he hesitated.
Besides, Empress Wu has just become pregnant, Li Zhi's meaning is obvious, moving Helan Minzhi will definitely stimulate Empress Wu, which he can't allow no matter what.
But the assassination of the prince is not a trivial matter, so Li Zhi had to come over to discuss with Li Hong in private, hoping that Li Hong can turn a blind eye and at least survive the period of Wuhou production.
Li Hong didn't know the thoughts of his father, and when he saw that Empress Wu was pregnant, he began to take care of this matter.
But if it is delayed again and again, I am afraid that it will be difficult to move Helan Minzhi again, maybe there will be any changes at that time, and maybe after a long time, this case will be completely closed, which makes Li Hong how can he be willing.
But Li Zhidu has already said this, how can Li Hong refuse!
"Father, Zhou Guogong has already pleaded guilty to the case of abduction and trafficking of women, as for the assassination case in the imperial city, it is still to be tried, and the sons believe in the ability of the ministers, as long as it is the result of the trial of the three divisions, the sons have no objection!"
Li Hong pondered for a moment and said slowly, with a hint of helplessness on his face.
But hearing this, Li Zhi nodded with satisfaction.
His son really understands his own difficulties, although the crime of abducting and selling women is serious, but he can't help a national prince, as for the triage of the three divisions, as long as Li Hong relaxes, those old ministers will naturally be easy to do.
"Good! Good! In this case, tomorrow I will ask the Criminal Department to send the file of abduction and trafficking of women, Wu Liangfu, pass on the decree, and tomorrow the three divisions will try the assassination case of the Prince's Imperial City! ”
Since Li Hong no longer bites and insists on letting go, Li Zhi breathes a sigh of relief, and immediately instructed Wu Liangfu that when he came back today, he had already explained to Xu Jingzong, and now that Li Hong had promised himself, he would end the matter as soon as possible!
Li Zhi thought about it, and after he finished instructing, he felt a little sorry for Li Hong, and just wanted to open his mouth to comfort him, but Li Hong spoke first.
"Father, it's getting late, and the minister will retire if he has nothing to do."
Li Zhi sighed, knowing that today made Li Hong a little unhappy, but there was no way, he was also determined to severely punish Helan Minzhi, but now that Empress Wu is pregnant, he naturally has to change his plan.
Seeing Li Hong's black face, Li Zhi was also a little helpless, so he had to say.
"Okay then, Hong'er will go back first!"
Li Hong turned around and walked out of the main hall, but his originally unhappy face was filled with a smile.
Would he really just let Helan Minzhi go?
The answer is definitely not.
Since he Helan Minzhi dared to do it, don't blame him Li Hong for being ruthless, thinking of the trembling bodies of those girls in the backyard of Pingkangfang that day, full of fear, Li Hong couldn't wait to chop this bastard.
But Li Hong knows even more that with such a case, there is no way to deal with Helan Minzhi, not to mention that Empress Wu is still pregnant, as Empress Wu's only nephew by his side, naturally no one dares to touch him.
Therefore, Li Hong must finalize his assassination of the prince as soon as possible, this is a great crime of rebellion, as long as he is convicted, no one can protect him anymore, even Li Zhi!
What's more, the triage of the three divisions is the highest level of judicial procedure in addition to the imperial trial, and even the emperor cannot easily overturn it.
Li Zhi only thought that Li Hong promised not to question the conclusion of the triage of the three divisions, but if the conclusion of the triage of the three divisions was the assassination of the imperial city under the command of He Lanmin, Li Zhi naturally could not question it, and he must be severely punished in accordance with the law! Otherwise, it would not be as simple as detrimental to the royal majesty.
Li Hong turned around and looked back at the Daming Palace in the night, everything depends on tomorrow's trial!
