The Miraculous Effect of a Single Slap (Episode 5)

  Su He was dragged out by Li Chengqian, who pulled him along with a twisted and awkward gait.

  She could only wave to the palace maid behind her, letting them take up the prince's robe and follow. Li Chengqian had a eunuch bring his brand-new Tang Dynasty edition wheelchair. As soon as they left the temple gate, Li Chengqian became disoriented and had to let Su He lead the way.

  Out of the yard, there was a luxurious carriage waiting outside, with several eunuchs and palace maids standing beside it. Su He helped Li Chengqian onto the carriage and let the coachman drive off.

  The carriage jolted, and his body leaned forward. Outside, there was the sound of horseshoes clattering, and beneath him, he could feel the vibration of the horse-drawn carriage. Li Chengqian's anxiety made it impossible for him to sit still, while Su He comforted him in a soft voice beside him.

  A palace maid chased after the carriage and handed up the clothes. Li Chengqian saw a eunuch carrying a wheelchair chasing after the carriage.

  "Your Highness, hold out your hand." Su Hong added a long shirt made of brocade to Li Chengqian's body.

  Li Chengqian asked somewhat dazedly: "Xiaogu, what does my mom look like?" He was anxious in his heart, but he still didn't know what his mom looked like now!

  "The queen mother is elegant and dignified, with a majestic demeanor..." Su Hong said several idioms in a row.

  But it's just an idiom, how could Li Chengqian possibly imagine what a mother is like.

  Su He pursed his lips and said, "The Empress Dowager is a great beauty, with a small red mole at the corner of her right mouth."

  Li Chengqian nodded, it's better to wait a bit and then recognize him.

  Su He thought of Li Chengqian, who had forgotten everything, and quickly took the opportunity to brief him: "Your Highness, when we meet the Empress Dowager later, we will both address her as Mother. The Emperor may also come to the Zhengzheng Hall, and when you see him, you should call him Father Emperor. As for the other princes and princesses, they are all younger or older than you, and I will introduce them to you at that time..."

  Li Chengqian nodded. He knew Su Hui wanted him to say something, but Li Chengqian felt suffocated and couldn't think of anything to say.

  The carriage didn't know how long it had been walking, and Li Chengqian and Su Hui's bodies suddenly leaned forward. The carriage stopped. After getting off the bus, Su Hui said to the magnificent gate in front of him: "This is the Lizheng Hall where the Queen Mother lives."

  Li Chengqian limped and staggered as he walked inside, Su He hastily went to support him. After entering the palace gate, passing through the grand hall, they arrived at a small hall where many people were gathered. In a small door of the small hall, imperial physicians, palace maids, and eunuchs constantly came in and out, each with a tense expression.

  This scene is just like a rescue room in a hospital before, except that people are not wearing white robes.

  Li Chengqian's heart suddenly lifted up, and he completely forgot what Su E said earlier. He shouted loudly: "Mom!"

  Then he rushed into that door.

  His shout stunned everyone including Su Hao, and all movements stopped. Then they saw Li Chengqian rush in like a gust of wind.

  Inside the door, there was a warm and elegant bedroom. Behind the screen, on the bed lay a middle-aged woman with closed eyes, her pale face showing a hint of darkness, and at the corner of her mouth grew a small red mole!

  Several imperial physicians stood beside the bed, with Cao Zheng sitting on the edge of the bed, holding Empress Wende's wrist, while her other wrist was filled with silver needles.

  Li Chengqian's heart skipped a beat, and he shouted: "Ma!" He stumbled towards the bedside, but that damned wooden chest of the imperial physician was placed there, causing this disabled person to stumble. Li Chengqian's body fell forward.

  The imperial physician only noticed the crown prince's arrival when he heard him shouting "mother", and turned around to see his body rushing over, if he pressed down on the empress, the critically ill empress might not be saved even by a god, for a moment they were so frightened that two of their three souls and six of their seven spirits went missing!

  A quick-handed imperial physician hastily stretched out his hand to hold up Li Chengqian, and managed to catch him, but Li Chengqian's habitually outstretched hand slapped loudly onto the empress's body on the bed, right on her heart. The empress was severely shocked by this blow, and her body shook violently!

  Still, eerily still! Everyone in the queen's bedroom was silent, each person's eyes wide with some looking at the queen on the bed and others looking at the crown prince being held up by the imperial physician.

  Li Chengqian felt like crying, he just didn't want a mother to not even see her son for the last time, although he was excited, but really wasn't trying to harm the Empress, what's going on here, it's all because of this disabled body causing trouble!

  "Cough..." The queen on the bed suddenly coughed.

  A faint cough, like a thunderclap! Everyone was revived and came to their senses in this faint cough. They all looked at the queen, only to see that her pale face with a hint of blackness had regained some color, her eyelashes fluttering as if she were about to wake up!

  The surname Cao hurriedly grabbed the queen's wrist again, and immediately a look of surprise appeared on his face: "It's floating, it's floating..."

  As soon as these words came out, all the imperial physicians were excited.

  The two doctors who were holding Li Chengqian threw him under the bed and went over to discuss with those doctors in high spirits.

  Li Chengqian let out a loud cry, then hastily supported himself on the edge of the bed and pushed aside the imperial physician. He saw that Empress Wende had opened her eyes, and their gazes met. Li Chengqian was overjoyed and exclaimed, "Mother, you're awake!" That joy came from his heart and infected the frail Empress Wende, who smiled slightly.

  "Child..." she called out in a hoarse voice.

  "Ah!" Li Chengqian snatched Empress Wende's hand from Cao's and grasped it tightly.

  Cao Lao Tou glared at Li Cheng Qian with dissatisfaction, but the Empress woke up and made everyone extremely happy.

  At this time, Su Hong and several others rushed in from outside. They were stunned after seeing Li Chengqian rush in, and then reacted quickly to chase him in.

  "Your Majesty, I have seen Her Majesty the Empress. She has awakened!" said Cao's surname, stepping forward with a respectful and delighted expression.

  Li Shimin was overjoyed and immediately surrounded him.

  The people outside heard that the queen had been rescued and came in with joy.

  Li Chengqian was holding hands with the current empress, gazing deeply into each other's eyes when a small figure squeezed in beside him and suddenly pounced onto the empress, shouting "Mother, mother, waaahhh..." before bursting into tears in the empress' arms, clearly frightened out of their wits!

  Who is this? Just acknowledge your mom! Li Chengqian wanted to push her away, but hearing her heartbreaking cry, he couldn't bring himself to do it.

  Just then, Li Chengqian was interrupted by Xiaobudian. Only then did he realize that the bedside was already surrounded by people, men and women, all dressed in high-end clothes, all of whom were wealthy. With a bit of anti-rich sentiment, Li Chengqian bluntly shouted: "My mother is ill, what are you all surrounding her for? Do you know you're blocking my mother's air? Don't you want my mother to get better? Disperse, go out! And you, so tall, blocking my mother's sunlight. Don't you know that patients recover faster when they bask in the sun?"

  Su He hastily pulled at Li Chengqian's clothes and whispered: "This is your father..."

  Emperor Taizong of Tang!

  Li Chengqian opened his mouth wide and immediately lowered his head, ignoring the countless people who were staring at him with anger, and pulled Su He to slip away to the side.

  The queen called out weakly: "Chengqian..."

  Deaf to advice, offending Emperor Taizong of Tang and still refusing to flee is unreasonable!

  "A majestic voice rang out: 'Come back!'"

  Li Chengqian returned like a gust of wind, knelt in front of the bed, and grasped the Empress's hand: "Ma!"

  "I heard from your mother that you fell ill after getting caught in the rain. Has your body recovered?" The queen's hoarse voice was filled with fatigue, yet she still spoke with effort.

  Li Chengqian's nose turned sour and he almost shed tears. She herself had almost lost her life, but as soon as she woke up, she immediately asked if her son's cold was better!

  "It's just a cold." He replied with his mouth full.

  She can't be told that her original son has gone who-knows-where and now in front of her is a guy called Wu Churen!

  "You're so big now, how can you be so disobedient!" Empress Wende scolded.

  "Mom, don't talk, rest well. When you're feeling better, I'll sit at your feet and let you scold me as much as you want!"

  The queen heard the sentence "the child will definitely sit on your lap and let you nag", imagined such a scene, for a moment her heart was full of warm maternal love, smiled and nodded, then stopped talking.

  The little one next to her, with a nose full of snot and tears in her eyes, glared at Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian took her from the empress's arms and scolded, "You can't bully Mom!"

  He has already realized that this must be his sister.

  "Your Majesty, we still need to examine the Empress's body and prescribe medicine for her. The Empress also needs rest. Please ask the princes and princesses not to stay too long after seeing the Empress."

  "Hmm." The tall man turned around and said to the men and women of all sizes behind him, "After quietly paying respects to your ancestors, you can all go back now."

  The princes and princesses should be.

  Li Shimin walked to the bedside, also imitating Li Chengqian's grasp of the empress's hand, softly and gently saying a few words, then stood up, looking at Li Chengqian who was standing honestly beside him, humming a sound.

  The princes and princesses lined up from oldest to youngest, each walking to the bedside to pay their respects, then heading out the door. After everyone had left, the imperial physicians were busy again.

  Li Shimin said: "Follow me." He went out first.

  Li Chengqian pretended not to hear, but Su He was afraid to disobey and pulled him out by his clothes.

  In a room, Old Li was already sitting on a couch drinking tea, with a big-bearded guard standing beside him. Li Chengqian and Su He stood honestly to one side.

  Old Li put down his teacup and asked: "Has your body recovered?"

  "It's already been seven or eight years." Li Chengqian replied.

  "Do you remember what happened before?"

  "No, it's probably hopeless." That's the truth.

  Old Li paused for a moment, then said: "I have an assignment for you today. When you get back, copy out the 'Zhou Li: Da Zong Bo' and attach your own insights to it."

  Li Chengqian was perplexed: "What is 'Zhou Li · Da Zong Bo'?"

  A glimmer of despair flashed under Old Li's eyes.

  Su He hastily said: "Your Majesty, although the Crown Prince can't remember things from before, his mind is clear and his body is getting better day by day. The illness is no longer relapsing, I believe he will definitely recover and recall past events!"
