Chapter 402: The Old Queen Mother Who Can't Remember People
The next day, Liu Yunxiang first found Ruan Lingyu and handed him the brass pipe that Yan Dui gave her.
Ruan Lingyu looked at the copper pipe in his hand, and his eyes were fixed, "The Fire Qilin was developed by the orphan of the former abolished prince, and the fact that His Royal Highness the Seventh can get it shows that he knows the whereabouts of this orphan." ”
Liu Yunxiang hadn't thought about this, but she didn't care about any orphans.
"You go back to the Anguo Mansion and find a good time to blow up this fire unicorn."
Ruan Lingyu raised his eyebrows, "I lit this fire unicorn, and I won't be able to go back to the Anguo Mansion in the future, which is equivalent to cutting off the way to make a living." ”
"In the future, if you follow me, I will definitely not treat you badly."
"It's only when you get the money in your own hands that you can be sure."
Liu Yunxiang agreed very much, and immediately took out two silver tickets and handed them to Ruan Lingyu, "Look at this price, are you satisfied?" ”
Ruan Lingyu glanced at it and nodded with satisfaction, "The owner is really generous, don't worry, just go home and wait to hear the sound." ”
After explaining to Ruan Lingyu, Liu Yunxiang hurried to the gate of the city, there was a carriage waiting in the east, but this carriage looked too ordinary, even a little dilapidated, it couldn't be the queen's chariot, right?
She was about to withdraw her gaze when the queen poked her head out of the carriage and beckoned at her.
The corners of Liu Yunxiang's mouth twitched, and he walked towards the carriage, the coachman who drove the carriage was a young man, dressed in coarse cloth and short beats, but his body was sturdy, his face was resolute, and he looked like a practitioner.
Liu Yunxiang got into the carriage and saw that the inside of the carriage was as dilapidated as its appearance, and there was no place to sit. The queen pulled her over and sat down with her on the plank.
Then the carriage ran and creaked.
"This carriage doesn't look shabby, but it sits comfortably...... ...... service"
As he said this, he happened to run over a pit of dirt, and the two of them were turned upside down.
The queen coughed dryly, "The battle of the queen's travel is too big, I don't like it, so every time I sneak a person, it is convenient to go out in this inconspicuous carriage." ”
"Mother's ......"
"Out of the palace, I am Aunt Qiu."
Liu Yunxiang changed his words, "Aunt Qiu, you won't even sell the carriage in the palace, right?" ”
So you can only take this shabby one.
"What you said, I was also in a hurry with money at that time!"
Liu Yunxiang rolled his eyes, that is, it was really sold.
"But what are we going to do out of town? How can you ask me to help? ”
"A small favor."
"Heh, if you want to say that, I think it's best not to help with this favor, so as not to get yourself in trouble."
Aunt Qiu hugged her, "Goddaughter, my godmother begged you at that time, you must help with this favor." ”
Liu Yunxiang turned his head sideways and saw that Aunt Qiu had a rare serious look, and pursed his lips, "Then you have to make it clear, otherwise I don't know how to help you." ”
Aunt Qiu looked at her and watched quietly, as if she saw another person through her, but when she came back to her senses, she was only sad and helpless.
"I once had a daughter, the big name is worry-free, and the small name is light." When it comes to her daughter, Aunt Qiu's eyes are full of love, and her eyes are full of warmth, "When she was very young, she was like a meat ball, hugged in her arms, soft, warm, grinning when she smiled, and saliva flowed down the corners of her mouth." Later, when she grew up, her almond eyes were exceptionally good-looking, always shining. ”
Speaking of this, Aunt Qiu laughed, but her eyes were red when she smiled.
"She's so cute, so pretty, she just can't speak, she can't walk, they all say she's a fool."
When Liu Yunxiang heard this, she couldn't help covering her mouth, she didn't expect the queen's daughter to ......
"When she was one year old, her ability to swallow began to deteriorate, and by the time she was two years old, she could only drink milk, thin and small. The doctor originally concluded that she would not live to be two years old, but I didn't believe it, so I gave up everything to take care of her, and I survived day by day, and finally when she was three years old, she could eat a little bit except milk, and her condition was getting better and better...... On that day, I went to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing with His Majesty, who was still the king of Chang'an, and gently handed it over to her grandmother to take care of. On that day, I was always restless, and rushed back to the palace early, but it was still late. ”
Liu Yunxiang's heart tightened, and he probably guessed something.
"When I saw the light, her little body was already cold, and her grandmother was holding her like a fool."
Aunt Qiu, who has always been strong, couldn't help but shed tears at this moment. Liu Yunxiang hugged her and let her rely on herself, Aunt Qiu at this moment was fragile and distressing.
"I spent a month in a daze, until my grandmother was terminally ill and His Majesty brought me to her. Her hair was all white, she was skinny and skinny, and she held my hand and kept apologizing, saying that she had killed Qingqing and killed her granddaughter. That's when I remembered to ask what the situation was at that time. It turned out that her grandmother was afraid that she would not be able to drink enough milk gently, and she heard me say that she could eat a little bit of food, so she fed and ate a little rice porridge, but this bite choked the child to death. ”
After listening to Liu Yunxiang's sighs, her grandmother, who is now the queen mother, is only distressed about her granddaughter.
"I can't complain about the old man, I can only endure the heartache and take care of me. Fortunately, she broke through, but since then she has lived in Ningyuan'an, and no one has seen her, the emperor ascended the throne and personally led hundreds of officials to welcome her, but she did not return to the palace. I also went to see her many times, and she spoke to me through a door at most. She is not a monk, but she no longer has an earthly heart. For the rest of her life, she lived in self-blame and remorse, tormenting. Since the year before last, her brain has not been very clear, she can't remember things, she can't recognize people, and then she has been looking for light. In order to comfort the old man, I asked a palace maid to pretend to be gentle and bring it to her, but she said that it was not her granddaughter, and said that I lied to her. ”
"The Queen Mother's health is getting worse and worse, so I thought that she could untie the knot in her heart and be able to look at her when she died."
Liu Yunxiang sighed, "The Queen Mother really loves Princess Wuwu." ”
"Well, I love it very much, she was in the palace at that time, and she had to go out of the palace every day to take a look at the palace before she felt at ease."
Liu Yunxiang felt uncomfortable when he heard this, but after thinking about it, "So the favor you asked me to help is to pretend to be Princess Sanssouci, right?" ”
Aunt Qiu blinked her eyes that were still full of tears, "You shouldn't refuse, right?" ”
"Uh......"
"Godmother knows that you are a good boy!"
Liu Yunxiang was helpless, "Don't kidnap me, I'll help you, sincerely." ”
Aunt Qiu hugged Liu Yunxiang, "Yunxiang, my godmother is also sincere, when you are your goddaughter." ”
Liu Yunxiang thought that she had a mother, but her mother no longer recognized her. She doesn't resent or hate, but she still longs for such a family affection, and she doesn't want to have an Aunt Qiu in a foreign country to make up for her lack.
Ning Yuan'an is on Ning Mountain, ten miles outside the city, because it is in the deep mountains, the surrounding environment is very quiet. It wasn't until almost noon that they came to the gate of Ningyuan'an Mountain.
A bhikshuni led them inside, around the main hall, to the meditation room at the back.
As soon as she walked to the door of the main room, the door opened from the inside, and an old woman wearing a brown robe and full of gorgeous hair walked out, and when she saw Liu Yunxiang, she looked at it for a while, and then suddenly looked happy, and stepped forward to grab her hand.
"Gently, grandmother's delicate, you can be regarded as coming to see grandmother!"
