After a while, the queen also rushed over, exhorting and exhorting again, laughing and laughing, and finally got out of Yongfu Palace, Li Ru'an let out a long breath.

The carriage stopped right in front, Xuegu and others carefully supported Li Ruan down the steps, behind them were a few nuns in palace clothes.

Li Ru'an looked at the bright yellow dragon chariot that stopped in front, his eyes flashed.

"You are waiting for me here."

"Cao Zhi, open the gauze curtain and step back." Xiao Rui saw Li Ru'an approaching through the gauze curtain, and ordered.

"His Majesty."

The palace eunuchs all pushed away a hundred meters away, Xiao Rui's eyes were full of worry.

"Ru'an, you are pregnant, can I delay my affairs..."

"Your Majesty, I will not neglect my child to try to be brave. I am a doctor and I know my body well. You don't have to worry about this. Everything will go according to the original plan." Li Ru'an persuaded with a relaxed expression and a smile.

"This is Ah Huan's first child, how can I not worry about it." Xiao Rui rubbed his blurred eyes and sighed in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, I still have my grandfather and uncle to help. If you don't believe me, you should believe that my grandfather and uncle will not make me tired. Your Majesty's situation can't be delayed any longer. I beg you, please pay attention to the dragon body."

It was rare to see Ru An using the word "Qiu", Xiao Rui sighed slowly, "Okay, you must also pay attention to your body, otherwise, how can I explain to Ah Huan?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Watching the dragon chariot walk away, Li Ru'an looked down at the slender and flat waist, and sighed secretly, at first he thought about settling Xiao Rui and slipping to the north, but now it seems that he has to stay obediently in the capital.

By the way, I went to the prince's mansion, Xiao Yan is now the same as the supervisor of the country, he is too busy to touch the ground, Shi Fu is so cautious that he has never left the house, and everything in Huimin Hall is on track, Xu Li and the others are watching , calm.

"I didn't expect that we were so destined!"

Knowing that Li Ru'an was also pregnant, Shi Fu was overjoyed, and he couldn't restrain her excitement.

"Are you still having morning sickness?" Li Ru'an frowned and looked at Shi Fu's thin face.

"Well, this child is naughty, but it's better now, except in the morning when it's better, the rest of the time is fine, what about you?" People take good care of them.

"It should be that the days are still early, I don't feel anything."

Li Ru'an smiled and told about the fact that she smelled alcohol and found out she was pregnant yesterday, which amused Shi Fu. Under the amused eyes of all the nuns, the two had a serious discussion about the imaginary parenting theory until It was only in the afternoon that they dispersed.

----

After nearly ten days of being raised as a pig for Li Ru'an, the court finally welcomed the Prince of Daqing. After several days of excitement, the king threw a heavy bomb, which left the harem, princes, courtiers and even the common people dumbfounded. Jaw dropped!
The streets and alleys of Kyoto were full of discussions. The carriage of Prince Huan's Mansion slowly drove into the palace gate and stopped in front of Chengguang Hall. Princess Huan wore a plain blue tulle dress and stepped down calmly on her pedals. Her cold and beautiful face was refreshing.

A crowd of courtiers knelt down outside the palace gate, and in front was the empress leading the harem concubines and the prince and princess.

"How's it going?" The queen got up to meet her, with a look of anxiety on her face, and hesitated to speak.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Your Majesty has deep meaning in making this decision. At this time, you must be more steady." Li Ru'an looked at her calmly and whispered softly.

The queen's flustered heart calmed down, and she nodded slowly, "The queen mother and the prince are inside, so let's go in."

It was the first case in Daqing that the chariot directly entered the palace. Although it had been heard before, everyone was still full of reverence. They watched Princess Huan being led into the palace by Eunuch Cao himself, and cast envious eyes on the modest Li Yuan in the crowd.

In the hall, Xiao Rui was half lying on the dragon couch, the queen mother was sitting on the wide chair in front of her, and the newly born prince was kneeling in front of the bed, with a dignified and anxious expression.

"Queen Mother, Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince." Li Ru'an bowed his knees and saluted, and was supported by the Queen Mother who walked over quickly.

"Why are you being so polite at this time, come and sit down and talk."

"Aunt Huang, my father is going to abdicate, please help me persuade me!" Xiao Yan was short of breath.

In the 800 years since the founding of the country in Daqing, there has never been a precedent for a king to abdicate in favor of a virtuous person. No wonder even the queen mother looks dignified.

"Ru'an, I invite you into the palace to help me explain the reason. You can tell the queen mother and the crown prince the truth." Xiao Rui opened his blurred eyes and sighed helplessly. The imperial edict of abdication was issued to him this morning, but the crown prince refused to accept it. At that time, the courtiers also spoke in horror, knelt down and refused to disperse.

"Your Highness, please get up first."

Hearing father's words, did Aunt Huang already know about it?Xiao Yan and the Queen Mother looked at each other, sat up and looked at Li Ru'an nervously.

Li Ru'an appeased and patted the queen mother's hand before speaking seriously, "Do the queen mother and His Highness the crown prince know about your majesty's current physical condition?"

The two froze for a moment, then nodded slowly.

Li Ru'an shook his head, "No, you don't know, the three years I said before, I was thinking about the best, but as the king of a country, His Majesty is busy with all kinds of affairs, which consumes a lot of mental and physical energy, and has experienced rage and worry for a few months. Excessive, mentally sad, committed this big taboo of brain disease, if this continues, if An says something disrespectful again, His Majesty's body will not last this year."

"What!" The two exclaimed in surprise, horrified. They knew that Xiao Rui's physical condition was serious, but they didn't expect that he would not be able to last this year.

"So, I spent half a month researching and experimenting with a set of acupuncture methods. First, let His Majesty's body enter a dormant state, delay the onset of the disease, and then treat it. If everything goes well, I can buy Your Majesty a few more years. However, the treatment During the process, His Majesty is required to rest and recuperate absolutely, without interruption, without wasting half of his mental and physical effort."

Xiao Yan frowned, "Since this is the case, there is no need to abdicate the throne. I can supervise the country on my behalf, and let the father rest in peace until he recovers..."

Xiao Rui interrupted his son softly, "The success rate of this treatment is only [-]%. Prince, I have entrusted you with a heavy responsibility to keep Daqing stable and peaceful. The prince can only supervise the country for a while. If it goes on for a long time, it will definitely cause turmoil in the country. The court situation is unstable."

[-]%?The queen mother pressed her chest in panic, "The emperor said that there is only a [-]% chance? Then, if..."

"Mother, I have never been ashamed of the royal family in my life. Now, I have paved the way for Daqing, established a virtuous heir, and left countless loyal ministers. Even if I close my eyes at this moment, my son can still smile. He is the only one who deserves to be ashamed." , is the queen mother."

"Rui'er!" The Empress Dowager was so sad that she leaned on Li Ru'an's shoulder, weeping in a low voice, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth tightly, tears welled up in his eyes.

Compared to the excitement and sadness of the two, Li Ru'an was so calm that people were puzzled. Xiao Rui met her gaze and smiled slightly.

"However, with the reincarnated female doctor of the Daqing Immortal, I should be able to hug the child of the prince and Ah Huan."

Li Ru'an smiled back, "It's very good that Your Majesty has such an idea."

Seeing the two smiling tacitly, the Queen Mother made up her mind, and frowned again, looking worriedly at her daughter-in-law's belly.

"It's just that if An is pregnant, will she be tired?"

Li Ru'an smiled, "Mother, I will invite my grandfather and uncle to be with me at that time. Think about it, will they make me tired?"

The queen mother let out a sigh of relief, and nodded again and again, "Thank you for your hard work."

The atmosphere in the hall became a little more relaxed. After discussing with the four of them, they decided to rest in the Nanshan Royal Courtyard, and set off immediately after the crown prince ascended the throne.

main hall
The emperor sat upright, the queen mother listened, and all the courtiers below knelt down, and Eunuch Cao recited the edict of abdication aloud again, with correct words.

The prince solemnly straightened his face, and went forward to bow three times and kowtow nine times.

"Son, Xiao Yan, accept the decree!"
