Chapter 073: Shocked
"Ah Jin, don't worry. Mother will be fine. Lu noticed that Tong Xue was uneasy, reached out to hold her wrist, and gently pinched it.
"Yes! There are big things like your father and grandmother, and your grandmother! Listen to the woman's words, don't take them seriously! General Weiyuan's wife reached out and rubbed Tong Xue's head, smiling reluctantly.
Tong Xue noticed that only He Yongchan sat with her head down, silent.
Seeing this, she frowned slightly.
He Yongchan was coming back from her contemplation, and suddenly met Tong Xue's eyes, her eyes flashed, she moved her gaze away, and muttered in her mouth: "That scene just now is like a dream, who would have thought"
At these words, there was a long silence in the carriage.
Tong Xue intuitively felt that the dead woman should be an old acquaintance of her mother and others, and obviously, they did not want to discuss the matter of that woman in front of her.
"Mother, can that dead alien woman meet you?" Even so, Tong Xue couldn't help but ask.
The Lu family hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but glance at General Weiyuan's wife, and when he saw General Weiyuan's wife nodding, he put his lips to Tong Xue's ear and said in a low voice: "That lady looks a little like Concubine Chen, who died nine years ago. ”
Concubine Chen's sudden illness and sudden death have always been taboo topics in the court, and they have rarely been mentioned in recent years, so Lu deliberately lowered his voice to prevent the wall from having ears.
Tong Xue heard of this person for the first time!
Since he was supposed to die nine years ago, why did he suddenly appear in Shengjing City, and he was still possessed by Xiuxiu, with the idea of possessing his mother's body?
Tong Xue felt that the whole thing had become mysterious, and she couldn't sort out the clues at all based on what she had seen and heard in her previous life and what she had experienced in this life.
However, her mother's death is like a sharp knife hanging over her head, and if it is not resolved, she will not be able to sleep and eat for a day.
Therefore, after returning to the Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion, Tong Xue couldn't wait to find an opportunity to drive down all the girls and mothers-in-law around the Lu family, and said solemnly: "Mother, I have something to say to you." ”
The Lu family found Tong Xue's strange appearance on the carriage, so he didn't want to think about it, so he withdrew the rest of the people, pulled Tong Xue to sit on the small couch by the window, and said with a concerned face: "If Ah Jin has anything to ask, just ask, and my mother will tell you." ”
Tong Xue opened her mouth and suddenly stuffed her whole body into Lu's arms.
She sniffed the unique milky smell on Lu's body, took a deep breath, raised her head with red eyes, looked at Lu and said, "Mother, these days, I have been having a constant nightmare. ”
As he spoke, he trembled and told the scene in his previous life to the Lu family.
Those memories that were rooted in the depths of her soul and made her unable to breathe painfully every time she touched them, after all, were told to Lu by her in this way.
After hearing this, Lu Shi couldn't hide his shock in his eyes.
However, out of her mother's instinct, she reached out and hugged Tong Xue into her arms.
"Ah Jin, you dreamed of Aunt He and your father" Lu Shi pondered his words, his tone paused, and patted Tong Xue's back with his hand, "You Aunt He, she won't." ”
"Aunt He likes her uncle, and she knows that she will not take the initiative to seduce her father." Tong Xue's voice choked.
Lu's hands were stunned, his body stiffened slightly, his lips opened, but he couldn't speak.
Over the years, she has some conjectures in her heart, but she doesn't want to be said so bluntly by Tong Xue.
"Mother, the little starling raised by my son, it is very smart, and I have seen a lot of things!" Tong Xue raised her head from Lu's arms, her expression was extremely solemn, "I feel that this matter has nothing to do with the eldest princess of Yuanjiang, maybe she threatened Aunt He to do this." ”
Yesterday, He Yongchan was taken into the palace by General Weiyuan's wife, confessed to the old man of the Queen Mother that year "murdered her husband", the Queen Mother not only did not convict He Yongchan, but rewarded her with a lot of things, the eldest princess of Yuanjiang was also sued by the bend, not long after the two left, the eldest princess of Yuanjiang was found by the Queen Mother, grounded, until the day of recruiting her son-in-law, she was not allowed to go out of Yuxia Palace.
Lu Shi listened to Tong Xue's words, and couldn't help frowning, "I have nothing to do with the eldest princess of Yuanjiang, and your Aunt He has never offended her, she worked hard to dig out this matter and threatened you, Aunt He, just to separate the feelings between your father and me" Saying this, Lu Shi's face suddenly turned pale, as if he remembered something extremely terrifying.
"Mother?" Tong Xue saw that the Lu clan had not reacted for a long time, and couldn't help but call out worriedly.
"Ah Jin, my mother's body is suddenly a little unwell, I need to go inside to rest for a while, I will discuss this matter with your father, you go back to the Hanmei Pavilion first." Lu said, raised his voice to call Song's mother in, and asked Song's mother to send Tong Xue back to the Hanmei Pavilion.
Tong Xue saw that Lu's face changed sharply, and she walked slowly towards the inner room, and her heavy heart fell again.
It seems that the mother also guessed this possibility, there is really someone behind the eldest princess of Yuanjiang!
And that person must be not small!
"That mother is resting, and I'll come back to you later." Tong Xue lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, and retreated from the inner room.
Back at the Hanmei Pavilion, Tong Xue deliberately sent the girl down, leaving Song's mother to speak.
"Mom, do you know how this Concubine Chen died?"
Mother Song is Lu's confidant, and she knows the scene in the abandoned house.
Seeing that Tong Xue was looking at her with trust, and there were no outsiders in this room, and it was in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, Mother Song talked to Tong Xue about this Chen Guifei.
"It is said that Concubine Chen is the favorite daughter of the first king of Beiqiang, and after marrying Dayue, she was once very favored by the saints." Mother Song sat on Tong Xueci's pestle, and said eloquently: "But the old slave once heard Mrs. mention that this princess was spoiled by the king of Xianbeiqiang, and she didn't know the height of the sky, and she wanted to dominate the holy favor, and tried in vain to cast an infatuation spell on Jinshang, in order to only love her alone, and after being detected by Jinshang, she was beaten into the cold palace, and then the news of the death of this concubine came out, who knew that she escaped from the cold palace and hid for so many years!"
Mother Song sighed for a while about Concubine Chen's experience.
And Tong Xue had already stayed in the local area in shock.
She clearly remembered that this Concubine Chen wanted to possess her mother before her death, and she had an inexplicable obsession with occupying her mother's body and replacing her mother's identity!
If it is really as Mother Song said, this Concubine Chen has a deep affection for His Majesty today, and even does not hesitate to impose an infatuation spell on him, but also wants to dominate the favor of today. So from the fact that she tried everything possible to seize her mother's body, can it be concluded that her mother is actually the most beloved woman today?
This thought was so shocking that it popped up in his mind, and Tong Xue was stunned in place.
"Mom, Ah Jin doesn't seem to have seen his mother enter the palace all these years, why is this?" Before Tong Xue came back to her senses, she heard her pretending to be calm.
Mother Song suddenly looked at her with a surprised face.
Tong Xue shrunk her shoulders, her eyes showing fear, "But the palace is really a scary place, it's better not to go." ”
"Not really!" Mother Song had a reluctant smile on her face, and then echoed, "No matter how solemn and majestic the palace is, it is not as comfortable as a family gathering happily in one place." ”
"Hmm. It's getting late, and it's time for me to get some sleep. Tong Xue covered her mouth and yawned.
"In this way, the old slave will retire first, and the girl will rest for a long time." Mother Song retreated in amusement and called Cai Qing and Cai Lan into the house to serve.
