Li Shimin really couldn't hold on any longer. He didn't know the reason for his son's rebellion, but he heard the news that his beloved wife had passed away early.
His body went limp and he hurriedly grabbed Guanyinbi's hand.
At this moment he was not an emperor, but just a husband, a husband whose beloved wife was about to pass away, a father who was about to lose his beloved son.
"Bi Guanyin, you, you have to, you have to accompany me... I..." Li Shimin was at a loss for words.
Thinking about it now, it seems like it was just yesterday when Guanyinbi married him. At first, the family was harmonious, and later when they fought for power, she was by his side. Be it life or death, she said that husband and wife are one, sharing the honor and disgrace, and will never regret it in their life.
He hadn't done enough. She was only thirty-six years old, and they hadn't lived a peaceful life for a few years. Why was she leaving him?
The palace servants had left at some point, leaving only the couple in the palace.
Li Shimin's tears kept falling and his words were incomplete. Empress Changsun was stunned for a long time when she first heard it, but soon she smiled indifferently, but her smile looked bitter no matter how you looked at it.
She also wants to spend more time with her husband and children.
The pain in her hand grew worse, and her bones were almost crushed by Li Shimin. Empress Changsun looked at Li Shimin with tears in his eyes, and this time she was really amused. She raised her other hand to wipe his tears.
"If outsiders saw your Majesty like this, they would laugh at you. How could an emperor be so fond of crying..."
Tears fell from his eyes as he spoke.
After getting married, she also laughed at her husband, wondering why he was more crybaby than her. However, the more she got to know him, the more she realized how good he was.
She had thought more than once that she was lucky. In this war-torn era, she married a powerful and loving husband. She didn't know how much luckier she was than those women who married inhuman men and died in the war. But at the same time, she was so scared now, afraid that she would leave early as history had already determined, and eventually her husband and son would become alienated.
The couple hugged each other tightly. Li Shimin's expression was firm and he said, "I won't let anything happen to you. Even if I seek help from all the doctors in the world, I won't let you die."
"Mother—I didn't do it. Please don't die. Wuwuwu..."
Li Chengqian suddenly ran in and hugged Empress Changsun and cried. Then, several other children also ran in and hugged and cried. Li Shimin let go of Empress Changsun and looked at the children. Empress Changsun squatted down and said to them, "Mother is here, Mother is here."
Empress Changsun patted their small figures to comfort them.
Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin: [Miss Zhou Jia, I wonder what illness Guanyinbi is suffering from? Is there any way to cure it?]
Zhou Jia said:
In 634, Empress Zhangsun accompanied Li Shimin to Jiucheng Palace for summer vacation when she fell seriously ill. Li Chengqian requested a general amnesty and the possibility of ordination, but Empress Zhangsun refused. Li Shimin then went to Puguang Temple, swore an oath, and prayed for blessings, and he later recovered.
In 635, Li Chengqian married Su as his concubine, but after great joy came great sorrow. His biological mother, Lady Zhao, and the retired Emperor Li Yuan died one after another, triggering some physical illnesses that Empress Zhangsun had suffered from in her early years. Her condition worsened the following year, and Li Shimin prayed for her many times but to no avail, until she died in 636.
As a side note, if you are sick, why don't you see a doctor and listen to what he says instead of praying for blessings? Isn't it better to listen to the doctor than to pray everywhere?
However, from our current perspective, in addition to the relapse of Empress Changsun's old illness, we also believe that her health was severely weakened by having too many children."
?
When Zhou Jia said this, the first people who did not accept it were not Li Shimin, but those men and women who were eager to have children to carry on the family line.
"Having children is a good thing, how could it possibly be harmful? You're clearly exaggerating."
Many people echoed.
Zhou Jia didn't want to argue with them, so she said:
"Empress Changsun was born in 601 and died in 636. She married Li Shimin at the age of thirteen and was eighteen when she gave birth to Li Chengqian. She gave Li Shimin three sons and four daughters, a total of seven children. She even gave birth to a Princess Xincheng in 634. It's suffocating to hear that, okay?
She only lived for a few years and gave birth to seven children. I don't know why you people think that loving her means she should have more children. Giving birth consumes the mother's energy. The health loss from giving birth to Empress Zhangsun for many years probably wasn't replenished and she suffered from various diseases. If she could live to be a hundred years old, it would be God's blessing.
I'll talk to you about this later when I have time, but just remember this: childbirth is very difficult, and the energy lost by the mother after giving birth is really hard to replenish. Childbirth is still dangerous for women today, let alone your time. If you're not careful, you could lose both mother and child."
She shuddered.
Oh my god, it's so scary.
Stay safe by staying single and not having children!
【Evil words! Evil words that confuse the public! 】
Zhou Jia rolled her eyes.
"If women think I'm being seductive, I have nothing to say, but as a man, let's play a game.
Starting tonight, all men who think that pregnancy is not hard for women will become pregnant. You men will experience everything that women have to experience. Everyone except Your Majesty will experience it. Don't thank me, I will be proud.
Oh, don't think I'm being unfair to you. We have a modern device that allows men to experience the pain of a woman's ten fingers being spread apart during childbirth. The highest level is level twelve, and many men may not even be able to endure half of it.
But some girls say that even level 12 pain is nothing compared to childbirth. Don't worry, the system guarantees that what you experience is the most realistic pain, so enjoy it."
After saying this, Zhou Jia felt much better. After a few days of live broadcasts, she found that her mood had become much calmer. If she saw something she didn't like, she would just ignore it. After all, if she got angry, it would only harm her own body, and they wouldn't feel sorry for her.
