Chapter 569: Worthy of it
Qingwan's heart jumped, although the queen mother was well-informed, and it was reasonable to know it, but it still made Qingwan a little nervous, she thought about it and said with a smile: "Yes, I rewarded the courtiers with a jade pestle, such a valuable thing, it really makes the courtiers feel ashamed." β
She said as she spoke, guessing in her heart how the Queen Mother would react.
"Since the emperor rewarded you, it means that you deserve it." The Queen Mother smiled very calmly: "Just take it." Has the departure date been set? Probably won't be long, right? β
"Back to the Queen Mother," Qingwan said thoughtfully, "it hasn't been decided yet." β
The Queen Mother smiled: "Don't think too much, this palace knows that you must be in a hurry." The emperor's health is also very good, you always stay in the palace, in case something happens again, even worse, you better set a date earlier. β
"Yes, the courtiers will obey the will of the Queen Mother." Qingwan pondered these words, could it be that the emperor could change his mind?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on her back.
As if she saw Qingwan's thoughts, the Queen Mother went on to say: "Don't be careful, you think that the emperor will regret it, this palace doesn't mean that." But since something unpleasant has happened between you, it is inevitable that you will encounter it if you stay in the palace, isn't it not necessary? β
"Yes." Qingwan promised, "The woman will clean up and leave the palace tomorrow." β
The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction: "Before leaving, this palace still has something to say to you." β
"Please let the Queen Mother command." I expected this scene to happen, and Qingwan was ready.
"When you're old, you'll be full when you eat a little," the Queen Mother put down her chopsticks, left the dining table, and after washing, she still sat on the big kang by the window.
Qingwan sat at the bottom, not knowing what the Queen Mother was going to say to her.
"It's a long story." The Queen Mother took a sip of the teacup and said slowly: "Mrs. Lu has a life-saving grace to the palace and the emperor, and she is a great benefactor of our mother and son. But when I learned that the emperor had decreed that I wanted to keep you, this palace was indeed shocked. When you first entered the palace, to tell you the truth, the palace also doubted whether you could withstand the emperor's attack. But you didn't disappoint Hongu, you are a good and simple boy. Since he once promised you to help you return to Qianzhou, naturally he can't break his promise. For more than a month, seeing that the emperor was restless every day, the palace was also restless. On August 14, the emperor came here and made it clear to the palace that he wanted to make an edict on the 15th and leave you in the palace. The palace persuaded for a long time, but it had no effect. In the end, there was no way, so the palace said, no matter what, you have to have a long talk with Mrs. Lu before making a decision. β
"The emperor's temper has always been stubborn, and this is only after the queen mother's hard persuasion, the emperor agreed." The round fan said: "Otherwise, I'm afraid that the order will be issued immediately." β
"Even if I want to help you, that's all I can do." The Queen Mother sighed: "But this palace believes that you are a smart person, if you can have a chance to talk to the emperor once, you will definitely be able to move the emperor." Sure enough, you lived up to Hongu's expectations. β
"Without the grace of the Queen Mother, the courtiers would be powerless." Qingwan said busily.
"At the end of the day, it's up to you." The Queen Mother said: "This time in Qianzhou, I don't know what year and month, we can see each other again?" β
"The Queen Mother is in good health, although the mountains and rivers are blocked, there is always a chance to see you again."
"As long as you live well, Hongu will be happy." The queen mother's eyes also reddened: "I don't have anything for you, this is what my mother put on when I married into the palace." How many years, it has been kept as the most precious thing, there is no daughter in this palace, you will be my daughter in the future, this step shake, it will be given to you! β
Saying that, the round fan has been carried over a large tray, and when it is uncovered, there is an eight-treasure Hepu bead on it, which is gorgeous and dazzling, and it is extraordinary at a glance.
Qingwan hurriedly said: "Thanks to the love of the Queen Mother, the courtiers are allowed to worship under their knees, but this step is too precious for the women to bear." β
The Queen Mother personally put the hairpin on her sideburns for her, and looked left and right: "What a peerless woman!" No matter how valuable things are, they have to be brought by someone. Besides you, who else can be worthy of this thing in this palace? Good girl, in the future, start a family, have children, you must take care of everything! β
Qingwan was grateful in her heart, the Queen Mother was a good person and took more care of herself, so she thought that she might never see each other again, and she was also a little sad: "Thank you for the kindness of the Queen Mother, the courtiers should always remember it." β
"Hey," the round fan smiled hurriedly, "Why don't you call the queen mother soon?" β
"Yes, this palace has only given birth to one son in this life, and I dream of having a daughter call me."
When she heard the soft voice, the Queen Mother's eyes were a little moist, and she held Qingwan's hand: "In the future, you and the emperor will be brother and sister, a son and a daughter, and this palace can be regarded as a good word." β
On the sixteenth day, Qingwan was busy preparing her bags to leave the palace. She didn't bring much things in, only a few close-fitting clothes, and for more than fifty days, the emperor only rewarded some food every day, so there was nothing to take out except for the jade pestle and Bu Shao.
Early in the morning of the 17th, the only package had been sorted out, Qingwan thought about it, and sent Shunzi to the front court to have a look: "Go back to the emperor for me, just say that I plan to leave the palace today, please ask the emperor for permission." β
Junko agreed to go, and came back after a while: "The emperor said that Madame can go out at any time." β
Hearing this, Qingwan breathed a sigh of relief, and planned to go to Cining Palace to quit and set off.
I had just changed into a set of clothes, and before I stepped out of the door, an internal supervisor suddenly came to deliver the decree.
"By order, Lu Yanyi's important minister, my share of humerus, Mrs. Lu's apricot forest is exquisite, hanging pot to help the world, now the medicinal materials are chaotic, mistaken and people's livelihood, for the common people, now set up the North and South Medicinal Materials Bureau, the south is in the capital, the north is Qianzhou, where the medicinal materials should be harvested, the first sale of medicinal materials Bureau, after the approval can be sold into the market. The selling price of the market trader and the final price of the pharmacy are under the control of the Medicinal Materials Bureau, and no arbitrary price hike is allowed. This is a major event related to the lives of the people, Qianzhou North Medicinal Materials Bureau, with Lu Yanyi as the book, the prime minister, all things, Qin! β
Qingwan was shocked in her heart, she could expect other things, only this was something she never expected.
The medicinal materials in the world have always been chaotic, after the harvest of the medicine farmers, they can only be sold to the medicinal material merchants, a medicine dealer desperately to lower the price, the medicine farmers work hard all year round, there is no profit. Second, after the pharmacists receive the medicinal materials, they try their best to make them shoddy, so that the medicinal materials that are finally circulated to the pharmacy and sold to the hands of the patients are of uneven quality, and it is difficult to distinguish between the true and the fake, which often delays the treatment.
In the past, the reason why Deyuantang was famous was because of the strict control of the quality of medicinal materials, starting from Lu Yanyi's grandfather's generation, he was meticulous about taking medicine, and it continued to Lu Yanyi.
When Lu Yanyi left his hometown, he specially told Da Su and the two of them about taking medicine, asking them to pay special attention and not take it lightly.
The last time I went home, I learned that Deyuantang was still the same as before, and there was no change at all, so Lu Yanyi and his wife were relieved.
However, no matter how strict the control of their own pharmacies is, there are still thousands of pharmacies in the world, and this common phenomenon of inferior drugs is still repeatedly banned.
Lu Yanyi had talked to her about this matter before, hoping that something could be done in the future to change this phenomenon and benefit the sick, but she had not had time to do it yet.
Now the emperor has made such a will. Divide the world's medicinal materials into two parts, not to mention the southern bureau, the medicinal materials of the northern bureau, Qingwan is absolutely confident that it can be grasped well, and the price will be sold fairly, so that it can be beneficial to many patients.
Qingwan was a little moved by the emperor. She and her husband didn't look away, and the emperor who tried her best to protect him was not a mediocre person in the end.
After receiving the will, Qingwan went to Cining Palace, and the Queen Mother instructed many words, and couldn't bear to ask her to leave, so she stayed with her for lunch.
Mrs. Zhu was even more sad, she didn't dare to talk nonsense in front of the Queen Mother, but she kept wiping her tears, as if she would never see her again.
"Don't be like this," Qingwan comforted: "I went to Qianzhou, and I will often write to you, if you are sad and sick, don't you make the Queen Mother anxious?" β
"Yes, yes, I'm confused," Mrs. Zhu said: "Mrs. Lu, when you have a little young master, you must think of telling the old slave!" β
Qingwan blushed slightly: "Take care of your body, I'll rest assured!" β
"Back to Niangniang, the carriage for Mrs. Lu is already waiting at the palace gate." The round fan came in and said.
"That's it, send you a thousand miles, there will be a farewell," the Queen Mother sighed deeply, "Nurse, don't be so reluctant, you have to let the child go after all!" β
Qingwan saluted and walked towards the gate of the palace.
Out of Cining Palace, she took out the purses she had prepared yesterday, each of which contained a thick reward and distributed it to Shunzi, Photon and a group of palace maids.
Although they have only been together for less than two months, the two of them are quite dedicated to Qingjuan, and the rest of the palace maids are fine, so when they leave, Qingwan doesn't want to thin them.
Several people shed tears, these days, they also deeply feel that this master is good, much more kind and kind than the rest of the palace concubines, thinking of having to serve those harsh people again, they are all touched by their hearts, and they can't stop crying.
"Don't cry, it's not easy for you, be careful in everything in the future, take care of yourself." Qingwan said.
"The emperor has arrivedβ"
With this summons, the emperor appeared beside the carriage.
Qingwan's heart was beating. She thought that she would never see this king again, but she didn't expect to see her off again?
"Say hello to the emperor."
"Mrs. Lu, please." The emperor stood there, the wind blew through the bright yellow robe, and he looked a little lonely: "I was afraid that my wife would be unhappy and didn't want to send it, but after thinking about it, there are still some things that I haven't finished." β
