In the middle of the night, Concubine Hui saw that Emperor Jingyuan had fallen asleep, so she came out of the Taiji Hall and returned to the palace.

Concubine Hui asked her confidant on the side, "Is there a letter from Shanyin?"

The palace maid handed a letter to Concubine Hui with both hands and said, "Niangniang, the letter that just arrived."

Concubine Hui coughed lightly, took the letter from the palace maid's hand, picked up the teacup on the side and smiled softly.

Lu Wanzhi and Zhao Heng and their entourage drove horses day and night.

However, Shanyin and Chang'an are far away, they only eat and rest every day for only three hours, and when they arrive at the post station, they will change to a thousand miles of BMW, Rao is like this, and it took almost half a month to arrive in Chang'an City.

Since this journey, Lu Wanzhi has been fine, but Brother Xiaodu is in a hurry day and night, and the whole person is extremely haggard.

After entering the city gate, Lu Wanzhi saw that the King of Chu and Zhao Heng were going to the palace in a hurry, so he persuaded: "Father, Zhao Heng, seeing Your Majesty is not here and a half, let's go all the way to the dusty and ragged, it is better to go back to the house to wash up and then go to the palace."

Zhao Heng listened to Lu Wanzhi's words and said, "Yes, let's freshen up first, it's really inappropriate to go to the palace this time."

Zhao Heng hurriedly washed up, changed into the clothes he wore to enter the palace, and said to Lu Wanzhi, "You wipe your hair slowly first, and I'll go to the palace to see the imperial uncle."

The road was in a hurry, Lu Wanzhi didn't bring the maids, the people left in the palace were all maids who had not learned to serve people, Lu Wanzhi had to wipe her long hair by herself and said, "Well, when my hair is a little dry, I will also enter the palace."

Zhao Heng walked outside the palace gate, but was stopped by the guards at the palace gate, "The palace is important, don't trespass!"

Zhao Heng frowned and said, "I lived to be almost twenty-two years old, when did I even have to be stopped from entering the palace?"

When the commander of the forbidden army saw Zhao Heng, he came over and saluted, "Little county king? You're back? These guards, who were new to their posts last year, haven't seen you."

Zhao Heng entered the palace, and before he arrived in Emperor Jingyuan's bedroom, he heard several palace maids talking about it.

"Don't believe it, this princess and the little princess must have an ulterior motive."

Zhao Heng paused and listened to the discussion of the little palace maids behind the corner.

"It doesn't matter if the county lord of Heyi looks a little like the little county king, this little emperor's grandson and the little county king are carved out of the same mold, if you want to say that you are not the son of the little county king, who believes it?"

"Where did the crown princess come from to have such courage to have an affair with King Chu Xiaojun?"

"The appearance of the two children is not deceiving."

Zhao Heng snorted lightly, this Zhao Jue can be regarded as shooting himself in the foot, and he has to snatch his own child, now it's okay, right? In the eyes of others, they are all cuckolded.

Zhao Heng hurriedly went to Emperor Jingyuan's dormitory, and the concubine Niangniang, who was waiting in the dormitory, was very surprised to see Zhao Heng coming, "Little county king? You don't do prefectural orders in San'in? How did you get into the palace?"

Zhao Heng walked to Emperor Jingyuan, and when he saw Emperor Jingyuan lying on the dragon couch, his face was pale and weak, Zhao Heng knelt in front of Emperor Jingyuan and wept and said, "Uncle Huang."

Emperor Jingyuan said weakly: "Heng'er, you are the county magistrate of Shanyin, how can you leave the county border without permission? You're so willful and complaining that I won't give you a promotion......

Zhao Heng wiped his tears with the back of his hand and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to see you for the last time."

Concubine Shu said in a loud voice, "Little County King...... It's hard to say."

Zhao Heng held Emperor Jingyuan's hand without any scruples and said: "Uncle Huang, I haven't had a father since I was a child, you are like my own father, not to mention being dismissed for leaving the county border without permission, or being beheaded, I also want to see you for the last time."

Zhao Heng had never seen such a weak Emperor Jing Yuan, "I won't let you not see me before you close your eyes."

Emperor Jing Yuan: "......"

Zhao Heng said: "Although I don't know medical skills, I speak very well, and I am willing to exchange my thirty years of life for you to live for thirty more years......

Concubine Shu said on the side: "Heng'er is really filial piety, Heng'er, is your brother Liang back?"

Zhao Heng nodded and said, "I'm also back, Brother Du has worked hard all the way, and when he arrives in Chang'an, he has a fever, so Brother Liang and Yuhe will also enter the palace later."

Emperor Jingyuan withdrew his hand from Zhao Heng's hand and said, "Heng'er, your filial piety has been appreciated, since you are back, let's go and see your imperial grandmother!" Your grandmother wants you to be tight."

Zhao Heng said, "I'll accompany you more, and then I'll go to see the emperor's grandmother."

When Lu Wanzhi entered the palace, it was almost dark, and the burning clouds of Chang'an in the summer of July were golden and endless.

Lu Wanzhi got the notification from the East Palace, so she entered the East Palace, and saw Meng Jingshu holding a baby wearing a small belly pocket and coaxing, the baby was humming and chirping very uncomfortable.

Lu Wanzhi looked at the child in Meng Jingshu's arms, her eyes were shining, her Cheng'er, the Cheng'er she had only seen once, was already so old.

It turned out that he didn't look exactly the same as Brother Yue, Lu Wanzhi always thought that he and Brother Yue would look exactly the same, but it turned out that Cheng'er looked more like Zhao Heng.

Lu Wanzhi concealed her emotions, walked up to Meng Jingshu and said, "Sister Jingshu."

Meng Jingshu saw Lu Wanzhi suddenly appear in front of her, and smiled, "Wanzhi? How did you get back? Isn't there almost two years left in the term of the little king?"

Lu Wanzhi said: "Your Majesty is seriously ill, and the little county king grew up in front of Your Majesty since he was a child, and he wants to come back to serve in front of His Majesty at the risk of being demoted."

Meng Jingshu coaxed the child in her arms and said, "Your Majesty is sick this time, it's been almost three months, at first I just thought it was a small cold, and in the past few days, I have been vomiting black blood, the imperial doctor said......

Meng Jingshu leaned close to Lu Wanzhi's ear and said, "It's only been a few days."

Lu Wanzhi was shocked, and saw Cheng'er in Meng Jingshu's arms snorting violently, "This is the little emperor's grandson, right? It's not much like my brother Yue, why do you keep making trouble?"

Meng Jingshu said: "Cheng'er has always been well-behaved, she has been crying non-stop for nearly half a month, and she can't sleep well, she often hums, and the doctor can't diagnose anything, only that he is frightened, and can only let the nurse take calming medicine."

Lu Wanzhi looked at Meng Jingshu and said, "Sister Jingshu, can you let me hug Cheng'er?"

Meng Jingshu gave the child in her arms to Lu Wanzhi and said, "Naturally."

Lu Wanzhi took the little baby, resisted the urge to kiss on his little face, gently patted the little baby's back and said, "Be good, don't panic, don't panic."

Xiao Cheng'er was comforted by Lu Wanzhi, and gradually stopped humming, grabbing Lu Wanzhi's sleeve with her little hand, and staring at Lu Wanzhi with her round little eyes.

Lu Wanzhi saw Cheng'er's eyes, and her eyes were also full of guilt, this was the second time she had hugged him since he was born, and she really owed this Cheng'er a lot.

Meng Jingshu saw that Lu Wanzhi coaxed the chirping baby, and said with a light smile: "Wanzhi, just when you see Cheng'er, don't say that Cheng'er looks exactly like Zhao Heng, everyone else has to say something like Zhao Heng when they see Cheng'er."
