38. Deliver it yourself to the door
Su Qingyuan leaned against the pillar, and her heart was tormented.
After these days of tempering, she is not afraid of going up and down the knife mountain and going down the oil pot. But what if she climbed the knife mountain and jumped off the oil pot by herself?
Knowing that there was something waiting for her in the Cultivation Palace, she had to send herself to the door - this feeling of powerlessness was in itself a torture prepared for her by Lu Li!
Lu Junnuo tugged at Su Qingyu's sleeve, raised his head and asked innocently: "Queen Mother, the imperial brother won't come tonight, right?" Is it okay for the queen mother to tell stories to coax Jun'er to sleep? ”
Su Qingyuan closed his eyes for a long time, and ruthlessly broke free of his little hand: "Jun'er, ask Mama to accompany you." The queen mother still has some things to do and needs to go out. ”
Hearing this, Mama Zhu hurriedly walked over, ignoring Lu Junnuo's protests, and forcibly hugged him down.
Danyue tightened her brows: "It's so late, where are you going?" ”
Su Qingyuan didn't answer, but only bowed his head to Luoxia and said, "Lead the way." ”
"Queen Mother, please." Luo Xia turned around and walked down the steps without the slightest hesitation.
Danyue wanted to catch up, but Shu Xing hurriedly grabbed her wrist and shook her head helplessly.
Everyone knows that they can't stop it.
At this hour, on the roads between the palaces, there are still many palace attendants coming and going.
Su Qingyuan is the queen mother, everyone avoids everywhere she passes, and no one comes to collide, so no one will guess where she is going.
Even if you guess it, what can you do? Someday, all the unseemly things will be exposed to the sun.
At this time, Su Qingyuan felt a sense of powerlessness in the face of fate. Thinking of the young Lu Junnuo and the timid and sick Su Qingluan, even if she had a little hardness in her heart, she could only grit her teeth and swallow it at this time.
The little eunuchs in front of the palace did not pay special respects to Su Qingyuan because she was the queen mother. When one of them went in to report, the rest still stood expressionless, leaving Su Qingyuan to wait awkwardly at the bottom of the steps.
It wasn't until Su Qingyuan's legs were numb that the little eunuch who had gone in earlier came out and said slowly: "The emperor still has a few pieces to deal with, please go to the side hall for a while." ”
Su Qingyuan smiled abruptly and followed him into the side hall without saying a word.
The little eunuch retreated, and the palace maid guarding outside the door did not come to serve. The side hall was deserted, and there was not even a pot of hot tea.
Su Qingyuan simply threw Luo Xia out of the door together, and sat in the side hall by himself, in a daze.
She knew what Lu Li meant.
Tonight, she was sent to the door by herself, and naturally she was even more lowly than usual.
Lu Li clearly wanted to polish her last arrogance clean. He just wanted her to know that she was just an ordinary bed warmer, who came and went as soon as she was called, and even the servants of the palace were a little more noble than her.
Su Qingyuan didn't feel very embarrassed at the moment.
The heavier humiliation had already been overcome, and her heart had long been numb.
She felt like she was almost at her limit. Presumably, Lu is not far from the result he wants to see, right?
She didn't know how long she would have to endure such a day - maybe until Qingluan got married, maybe until Jun'er grew up, maybe ...... It will be when my father can really cover the sky with one hand and not be afraid of imperial power.
Su Qingyuan didn't think she could survive that long.
If she can't survive, will Lu Li feel a little bit, a little bit sad?
Su Qingyuan crouched on the table and thought groggyly, and her heart gradually became a little sad.
I don't know how long it took, but there was finally a sound of footsteps under the corridor, and the bamboo curtain at the door then sounded "ding ding dong".
