Chapter 696: Empress
"Then why are you making up the lies of the false county lord?"
Hearing this, Lu Cancan became more and more puzzled, and Ying Dashan touched his nose after hearing it.
"It's been three years since we left the palace to look for you, and we were afraid that something would happen in the palace, so we made up this lie, thinking that we could protect you."
Although he didn't understand why Ying Dashan and Su Jinxiu had such thoughts, Lu Cancan still nodded.
She said why Su Jinxiu had been taking care of herself in the carriage, she thought that Su Jinxiu was a good person, but she didn't expect that she had already started to serve herself in advance.
Just when Lu Cancan was thinking about it, the group had already arrived in the queen's palace, Ying Dashan left first to go to the Internal Affairs Mansion to restore his life, and Su Jinxiu took Lu Cancan directly in.
Because she is a maid brought by the queen from her mother's house, the palace people in the queen's palace respect her very much.
What's more, there is no one in this queen's palace at all, thinking that Lu Cancan looked at the sparse crowd around her, she can't associate this place with the queen's place of residence.
"Please wait here for the county lord, and I'll go in and report it."
When he arrived at the queen's bedroom, Su Jinxiu said respectfully to Lu Cancan, and Lu Cancan nodded and stood down.
It didn't take long for Su Jinxiu to walk in, looking at the disillusioned look on her face, Lu Cancan asked suspiciously.
"What? Won't the Queen Mother see me? ”
"The county lord said with a smile, come in with me."
Su Jinxiu said and forcibly squeezed out a smile, but her eyes were slightly red, and Lu Cancan thought to herself that no one should be able to bully her in such a short time.
After following Su Jinxiu in, Lu Cancan understood why she had such a sad look in her eyes.
I saw that the woman lying on the bed was skinny, her cheeks were deeply sunken, her face was pale, and she exuded a kind of sickness.
"What's wrong with the Queen?"
Looking at Su Jinxiu suspiciously, Lu Cancan asked puzzledly, if she didn't know that it was the queen lying here, she would never believe that this bed would be the mother of a country.
"Ahem."
The queen who was lying on the bed coughed twice before she slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Lu Cancan, the look of disgrace in her eyes quickly shone out.
"Yue'er, my Yue'er."
Saying that the queen was about to get up, Lu Cancan was really afraid that her bones would fall apart if she moved like this, so she hurriedly sat on the bed and supported the queen.
touched Lu Cancan's face with her hand, and the queen's eyes were full of nostalgia: "You are Can'er, right?" You and my moon are exactly the same. ”
In the end, she has been a queen for many years, she just reacted after being confused for a while, and Lu Cancan nodded when she heard this.
But her hand subconsciously took the pulse of the queen, and when she felt the queen's illness and her weak body, her eyes narrowed slightly.
"How long has it been since the Queen Mother eaten?"
Hearing Lu Cancan's words, the queen was stunned for a moment, and then she coughed lightly twice: "You should call me uncle, you don't have to be confined to the title of queen." ”
The queen said softly but avoided talking about the meal, but even if she didn't say it, Lu Cancan knew that she hadn't eaten for three days.
If it weren't for his own pulse, Lu Cancan really didn't believe that the mother of a country was starved for three days.
Helping the queen to lie down on the bed, Lu Cancan hesitated for a while and said, "Uncle is here to rest, and I will go to serve you food." ”
Hearing her aunt's title, the queen's face was filled with joy, but when she saw that Lu Cancan was going to pass the meal, she opened her mouth to stop it, but she relented.
That's it, anyway, this has already become the case in her palace, and it's not a big deal for Lu Cancan to bump into it.
God would have given her a second look at Yue'er's appearance when she was dying, and it was already very preferential for her to think that the queen had slightly hooked the corners of her mouth.
Su Jinxiu, who was on the side, was full of sadness when she saw her appearance, holding the queen's hand, she asked softly: "Queen Mother, what has happened in the past three years?" Why are you the way you are? ”
Su Jinxiu failed to ask the truth of the matter from the queen's mouth, but Lu Cancan spent a little money to ask about the matter from the sprinkler on the side.
It turned out that when the Moon Emperor brought back the body of Princess Yue'er, the queen couldn't afford to see it.
Later, the Moon Emperor told her about her existence, and the queen sent her two henchmen, Su Jinxiu and Ying Dashan, to find her.
After a year, there was no news, and the queen's illness became more and more serious, and the emperor felt guilty about her at first.
But later, the queen was already sick, and even her once beautiful face disappeared, and the Moon Emperor naturally slowly faded his favor for her.
But these are not the direct reasons why the queen has become what she is now, until a few months ago, the Jin Kingdom sent a princess to the Yue Kingdom, and the Moon Emperor saw that he liked her very much, so he naturally completely forgot the existence of the queen.
But the princess of the Jin Kingdom has been blowing the pillow wind in the ears of the Moon Emperor, so the queen's life is getting more and more sad.
In addition, when the queen saw that the Moon Emperor was so fond of the princess of the enemy country who killed her daughter, she naturally became cold to the Moon Emperor.
During this period, he also quarreled with the Moon Emperor, and the Moon Emperor let the queen think about it behind closed doors in a fit of anger, so far those palace people in the queen's palace were naturally scattered.
As for the queen's illness, it was originally a heart disease, and those imperial doctors could not cure it, and secondly, because of the intervention of the princess of the Jin Kingdom, so the queen's illness became more and more serious, and I was afraid that there would be no days to live.
Of course, this is the situation that Lu Cancan did not come, and now that she is here, she naturally wants to treat the queen well.
Who made her grow a face similar to that of Princess Yue'er? When he saw the love in the queen's eyes, Lu Cancan couldn't stay out of it.
Thinking about Lu Cancan, he walked to the small kitchen, and sure enough, there was no one in the kitchen, and even the ingredients were left.
Looking at the only remaining ingredients, Lu Cancan touched his purse, and couldn't help but have a headache in his heart.
It was naturally impossible to cook by herself, so she could only buy it from other palace people for money.
Fortunately, Lu Cancan has always liked to save the silver taels, but he can also buy some things, bought two vegetarian dishes and a bowl of porridge from a palace maid, and Lu Cancan walked back to the queen's bedroom with the food box.
Don't ask her why she doesn't directly let these palace people cook in the name of the queen, it is naturally because the queen has completely lost her prestige, where will anyone be willing to listen to her?
What's more, she is also afraid that the food cooked by those people will be mixed with things, and she believes that there are many concubines in this palace who are afraid of the position where the queen is sitting.
found a table, and Lu Cancan put the food box on it.
