Chapter 449: Farewell
The small Buddha hall of Renshou Palace is full of incense.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Queen Mother would put the scriptures she copied by herself into the incense burner and burn them to her relatives in another world.
When Lu Yangge came, the Queen Mother was still in the small Buddha Hall and did not come out.
The grandmother who was waiting for the Queen Mother wanted to go in and ask the Queen Mother to come out, but was stopped by Lu Yangge: "Grandma don't bother the Queen Mother, I can just wait." ”
The emperor had to wait, and the grandmother didn't dare to really go in to invite the queen mother, so she could only retreat with the palace maid who served the tea.
Renshou Palace is the place where the queen mother of the past dynasties lived, and the construction is splendid, revealing a sense of luxury and heaviness everywhere. Only the small Buddha hall where the Queen Mother is located has only a few tablets and a cushion for kneeling.
The Queen Mother knelt on the cushion and chanted silently, there is still half a volume of today's scriptures, and she will not get up if she can't finish this half volume.
Lu Yangge stood at the door of the small Buddha hall and looked at the Queen Mother kneeling on the cushion.
The Queen Mother is only less than fifty years old, but she has gray hair, a plain dress and a long skirt, her hair is loosely tied, and only a lotus hairpin is inserted.
Such a silver hairpin, Lu Yangge has seen it on his mother's head. On the night that Lujiazhuang was burned, he was sent to Qingfeng Village, fell into the hands of Song Yunfei's mother, and now wears it on the head of the Queen Mother.
Seeing the silver hairpin of the Queen Mother, Lu Yangge realized that the plain dress worn by the Queen Mother seemed to be the same as more than ten years ago.
This is the clothes she wore when she was young, and every time she entered the small Buddha hall, she wore them on her body, as if this was the only way to be clean and make a Shen family.
Snorting, Lu Yangge walked to the Queen Mother's side, knelt down respectfully and kowtowed.
The sound of the Queen Mother chanting the scriptures paused, glanced sideways at Lu Yangge who was kneeling beside her, turned back again, and continued to read her scriptures.
After finishing reading half of the scriptures, the Queen Mother looked at Lu Yangge, who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "Does it hurt to kneel on your knees?" ”
How can you not hurt without a soft pad.
But Lu Yangge only knelt for half a volume of scriptures, and aunt, every morning and evening, a volume of scriptures, even if she kneels on a cushion, her knees hurt.
Lu Yangge raised his hand to help the Queen Mother get up, and said, "It doesn't hurt." ”
"Snort."
The Queen Mother chuckled lightly and helped Lu Yangge's hand to get up, "If it doesn't hurt, you can kneel for a while to see if it hurts." ”
Lu Yangge hurriedly held the queen mother's arm and walked back: "Then I don't kneel, I'm afraid that my aunt will be distressed at that time." ”
"You."
The Queen Mother patted Lu Yangge's hand, "Are you ready to leave?" Not coming back? ”
"I'm ready to go."
Lu Yangge's eyes moved slightly, and he sat down next to the Queen Mother and said, "As for whether I will come back or not, to be honest, I don't know." ”
"I'm also old, and I don't have many years to live, so I won't let you worry about it." The Queen Mother raised her hand to pick up the broken hair next to Lu Yangge's sideburns, "It's just that you can be willing to give up the two children of Xing'er and Ming'er?" ”
"I can't even give up my aunt, how can I be reluctant to have two children."
Lu Yangge propped one hand on the arm of the chair, approached the Queen Mother and asked softly, "Auntie, do you want to go with me, I will take you to see the great rivers and mountains." Then find a quiet and prosperous place to live in seclusion, okay? ”
"Not good."
The Queen Mother shook her head, "It's not good for me to be the Queen Mother, why bother to follow you to be a powerless old lady." No matter how rich and quiet the place you choose, can you still have peace and quiet in this palace? ”
In this palace, it is a truly comfortable and quiet place.
Lu Yangge still wanted to persuade her, but the Queen Mother raised her hand to signal her not to say anything, and called the grandmother who had been waiting for her to come in.
"Bring me that rosewood dresser."
The rosewood dressing box was carved by Lu Yangge and the prince in the palace with nothing to do, the carving is a little rough, but fortunately, the polishing is quite careful, and it is warm and smooth on the hand.
The Queen Mother pushed the rosewood dresser in front of Lu Yangge: "This is for you, take it." ”
Lu Yangge didn't know what was in this box, she subconsciously wanted to open it and take a look.
The Queen Mother raised her hand and held it down: "Don't look at it, wait until you leave the palace and watch it slowly." ”
Don't show it?
Lu Yangge picked up the box and hugged it in his arms: "Then I really took it, don't give me all the pension money when the time comes, and leave nothing good for your grandchildren." ”
The Queen Mother waved her hand tiredly: "Let's go, the mourning family will not leave you." ”
There was no admonition, and there was no retention.
Lu Yangge held the jewelry box and turned back step by step, and when she was about to leave the palace gate, she looked back.
The Queen Mother sat alone on the chair, surrounded by splendid prosperity, which made her more and more lonely.
Lu Yangge felt a pain in his heart, ran back a few steps with the box, and knelt in front of the Queen Mother, knocking his head three times.
When she left, her aunt was the only one in the palace, and no one cared about whether her clothes were warm or not, and no one asked her if she could sleep soundly all night. Xing'er and Ming'er have their own mothers, and they will also have their own children. Who cares about an old lady in the deep palace, whether she is doing well or not, whether there is anyone to talk to, whether anyone misses her?
Lu Yangge walked a few steps on his knees, hugged the Queen Mother's legs and cried: "Auntie, are you okay to walk with Biaoge?" I will take you to the south to enjoy the flowers, to the north to see the snow, and to the countryside to buy two plots of land to grow vegetables and raise chickens. Waiting for Biao Ge to find Ruyi Langjun, my aunt will help Biao Ge take care of the child, okay? ”
"Singing!"
The Queen Mother touched Lu Yangge's head with tears, "Let's go, don't come back." Aunt knows you're right. If you don't leave, the queen will suspect that you are relying on the love of these years and want to repay the kindness. If she is worse, maybe your aunt and nephew will eventually become enemies. Biao Ge, you are worthy of anyone, but you have never been good to yourself. When you're gone, be kind to yourself. ”
"Didn't she suspect it a long time ago?"
Lu Yangge knelt up straight and gently rested his head on the queen mother's knee, "Auntie, I didn't leave because the queen suspected me. It's because the line is big, and this country should be handed over to him. One day, he knew that his father, who had been with him for ten years, was his aunt, and perhaps he would be grateful and missed. And if I stay in the capital, it will only make him jealous. ”
Oh, yes!
If Yang Ge is not so good and does not govern this great business country so well, she will not be feared because of her talent, and she will be able to stay in this capital. If you want to enter the palace, you can enter the palace, and if you don't want to enter the palace, you can be her eldest princess, how good.
It's a pity that the song is too good, so good that even if the prince was taught by her, I am afraid it will be difficult to replicate her skills.
"Let's go."
The Queen Mother sighed lowly, "Aunt must live well, and when you want to come back, come back and have a look." ”
"Okay."
Lu Yangge got up and strode out with the jewelry box, this time, she didn't look back.
After a long time, Mama walked in lightly: "Queen Mother, the slave saw the emperor kowtow to you outside the palace gate, and her forehead was red and swollen." ”
Hearing this, the Queen Mother couldn't help but raise her sleeves to cover her face and cover her tears.
Her song, this time, I'm afraid she will never come back!
