Farmer's happy event

Chapter 547
For them, the capital city and Li's residence have been troubled recently.

Because of a mistake in household registration, the emperor showed great power and demoted Li Mo, a hero, to two ranks in a row.Officials in Beijing all speculated that the Li family was about to end.

But there are also people who hold different views. Although Li Mo was demoted, the favor of Concubine Li Shu has not diminished, and she has been in charge of the harem on behalf of the queen.As long as she is here, the Li family will not fail.

But the room leak happened to be raining all night, and the second prince fell ill at this juncture. He didn't take it seriously when he first got sick, as a child, how can there be no illness or disaster.I invited the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat her for a month, but I didn't expect that the condition not only didn't get better, but actually got worse.

Concubine Shu devoted herself wholeheartedly to the second prince, so she was naturally relaxed about other matters. Regarding Li Mo's downgrade, she also had more than she could think about.

However, although the palace was shrouded in gloom due to the second prince's serious illness, there was finally a happy event.That is, since these days, two concubines in the harem have been diagnosed with happy pulse one after another.

The emperor's heirs are rare, only the first prince who was born to a concubine and the maidservant, and the second prince who is now seriously ill.

This great event shocked even the Empress Dowager, who had never cared about worldly affairs, and deliberately took the two pregnant concubines to live in her palace.

In the Chonghua Palace, Li Shulan looked at the child on the sick bed, another stream of tears rolled down her pale cheeks.

"Your Majesty, the imperial physician is here." The maid came in and whispered.

Li Shulan acted as if she didn't hear, her eyes were still fixed on the child on the bed.

Imperial physician?What imperial physician?There are so many imperial physicians, why none of them can cure her child?
But no matter what, she still understood in her heart, turned her body sideways, and asked the imperial doctor to come over and check the child's pulse.

When the imperial doctor checked the pulse, she didn't say a word, but just kept watching.Neither speak nor move.

After the imperial doctor frowned and checked the pulse, seeing Li Shuxuan's absent-minded look, he didn't speak.

Just when he was about to come in and leave quietly, he suddenly heard Li Shulan ask: "How much time does the second prince have?"

She tried all the ways, but nothing worked.She knew in her heart that this child was probably going to go.

But no matter how many days he has left, she should let her mother know, so that she can be mentally prepared.

Hearing her question, the imperial doctor didn't dare not answer, so he whispered, "Ten days."

I have been watching this child for up to ten days.

"The old minister is incompetent, please punish me." The imperial doctor knelt down and said.

Li Shulan didn't answer, but continued to look at the child lying on the bed.

After a long time, she suddenly laughed dryly, followed by another laugh: "Punishment? What's the use of me punishing you?"

If punishment was useful, she would have let these people die a thousand times or ten thousand times.

The imperial physician stood up tremblingly and resigned, Li Shulan's face was covered with tears again.

"Mother, the emperor hasn't come for a long time." The confidant maid stepped forward and said, hoping to use this to reawaken Li Shulan's fighting spirit.

But the child is gone, so what's the point of fighting again and again?
This child is her hope and her life. Now that he is going, what should she do?
For the first time, Li Shulan felt that these fights were so stupid and meaningless. If she was given another chance, even if she died, she would not come to this palace that eats people and does not spit out bones.

After so many years of hard work, what did she get in the end?
When she was honored and favored, was she ever happy?
No, she wasn't happy, she wasn't happy in the first place.No matter how much petting, it's just petting, that's not love, not love.

No matter how much you fight, no matter how much you fight, it will be nothing in the end.If she had to take her child's life as the price, she would rather die head-on.

But no matter how many ifs, it's just her self-deception. Where did the ifs come from?

Just when she was distraught, the palace maid suddenly came in and said with joy, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, His Majesty is coming this way."

As soon as the maid finished speaking, the eunuch's shrill voice sounded the announcement.

But Li Shulan acted as if she didn't hear, she still knelt and sat in front of the bed, not speaking or moving.

After the emperor came in, he saw her like this.The unparalleled face in the past is now as pale as paper.

He came in and took a look at the second prince on the bed, then took Li Shulan's thin shoulders into his arms, and advised: "My concubine, don't be too sad, be careful that you hurt your body."

Hearing his words, Li Shulan suddenly felt how ridiculous, she didn't even have a son, yet she still cared about her body?
"Please come back, Your Majesty, and let me accompany him a little longer."

The emperor sighed helplessly, asked the maid to take good care of her, and strode away.

Behold, the favor of the emperor, that's it.The emperor's heart is so fickle.

Her son is seriously ill, but he can still impregnate other concubines.

But these, in her opinion, don't matter anymore.

She doesn't care, she doesn't care anymore.

It is impossible to get out of this cage.But her heart, along with the child's departure, was completely empty.From now on, I only wish to eat fast and recite the Buddha's name, and never ask about world affairs again.

Without desire, naturally, there will be no pain.

According to historical records, eight days later when the second prince died of illness, Concubine Li Shu was calm and asked to move the palace to a side courtyard, and the emperor allowed it to play.
