Chapter 235: If There Is an Afterlife
"Lu Xiaotang, don't worry, just tell me what medicine to use in Longqing Palace."
Concubine Shu said as she gave Lu Qingtang a chopstick dish.
Lu Qingtang looked at the rice in the bowl and sighed, and the second half of Concubine Shu's words sounded in his ears, "Although the Queen Mother doesn't like me, I think she is sick now, I don't care about her, I'm generous!" ”
As she spoke, she reached out and pinched Lu Qingtang's face, "Don't worry, I'll pay attention, you see that everyone has lost weight after giving birth, eat more to make up for it." There are some things that you can't just worry about, and you still have three children to take care of. ”
Lu Qingtang nodded, lowered his head and ate a bite of the rice in the bowl, and then looked at her again, "What do you have with the Queen Mother?" ”
After listening to her question, Concubine Shu immediately put down her chopsticks, and she looked at Lu Qingtang with a flat mouth and an unhappy face, "Actually, I really don't blame me for that, I'm also innocent." ”
This matter is about to start when Concubine Shu just enters the palace.
She is good-looking, has a lively personality, and is deeply loved by His Majesty, and she has become a talented person all of a sudden, which makes all the show girls who enter the palace at the same time envious.
The Queen Mother is very kind, and her attitude towards her is not bad. Concubine Shu is a smart person, so she naturally understands one or two, and goes to Longqing Palace for three days and two times.
But one day, she was fooled into wearing a red dress to Longqing Palace, but found that it was the death day of the queen mother's son. could have avoided it smoothly, but who knew that it was exposed by Concubine Ning in public.
She will never forget the sad eyes of the Queen Mother that day, and the look of disappointment at her, and she has never had the face to see the Queen Mother since then.
"Lu Xiaotang, I know I did something wrong, but I was really framed by Concubine Ning and that little slut." Concubine Shu emphasized to Lu Qingtang again, "You must know that everyone in the palace has thousands of eight hundred hearts, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss, and I was also accidentally fooled, but I really don't have the slightest disrespect for the Queen Mother." If I had known that it was the death of the late prince, I would not have dressed so fancy, and I would not be a fool. ”
After she finished speaking, she sighed, "Actually, the Queen Mother is very good to me, I have secretly visited her, and she is indeed much thinner than before." ”
Lu Qingtang looked at her bitter face, got up and patted her shoulder, and comforted her softly: "The Queen Mother is so wise, even if she didn't know it at the time, she must have understood it later, and you let the villain calculate it regularly." Concubine Ning is so arrogant, how did she know that you were wearing a red dress? Isn't there a villain in trouble? I can see that the Queen Mother must be bright-eyed and bright-hearted, but she is the Queen Mother, and without support, she naturally has no right to speak, and she is just alive. ”
Concubine Shu nodded, she looked up at Lu Qingtang, "Lu Xiaotang, if there is an afterlife, I will definitely not enter the palace, it is good to be an ordinary woman in the next life." ”
After speaking, she smiled bitterly, "Let's eat, don't mention these sad things." ”
Lu Qingtang's throat was a little choked, she clearly saw tears in Concubine Shu's eyes, but she was still pretending to laugh.
She knew the pain in her heart, but she couldn't do anything about it.
……
When I returned to the palace from the palace, it was already evening.
Lu Qingtang had just left the palace gate, and he saw Mo Zeshen, who was waiting for him.
Seeing his impatient look, Lu Qingtang told him about the situation of the Queen Mother.
Mo Zeshen's face was obviously a little worried, Lu Qingtang could only serve as the important task of comforting him at this time, and he couldn't do anything else. The two agreed to visit the Queen Mother together a few days later, hoping that her condition would improve.
After entering the palace again, Mama informed Lu Qingtang that the medicine was very effective, and the Queen Mother's condition had improved significantly after taking it, and she would not lose her memory at any time.
Lu Qingtang only smiled bitterly in his heart, those medicines were just maintaining, and it was impossible to get better.
In order to facilitate the frequent accompaniment of the Queen Mother, Mo Zeshen pushed most of the Yamen's duties to the regent. At this time, the steel plate of the regent's leg had been taken out by Lu Qingtang, and the wound had been healed.
It felt good to stand firmly on the land again, and the whole person was also in high spirits, and he took over the position of the yamen, so that Mo Zeshen could accompany the queen mother with deep peace of mind.
Lu Qingtang also lived in the palace for a period of time, which could not only accompany the Queen Mother, but also facilitate the observation of the condition.
The Queen Mother has been very naughty since her illness worsened, just like a child, and she will learn from Mo Mo and Mo Bao.
For example, Mobao doesn't like to eat fruits, Lu Qingtang squeezes fruits into juice and feeds them, and Mobao also likes to follow along, putting oranges in his hands and clutching them into a mud. And the Queen Mother prefers to follow these studies, and even puts the fruit under her feet and tramples on it, and she is so happy.
When he gets old, he becomes a naughty child.
For these, Lu Qingtang is very tolerant, but what he can't accept is that the Queen Mother loves to play hide and seek.
For an elderly person with Alzheimer's disease, if she hides somewhere and suddenly the illness attacks, she can't remember where she is, who she is, and she can't remember what she does, it will be a catastrophe for her.
For this reason, she formulated a rule in Longqing Palace, she asked the palace ladies and grandmothers to accompany the queen mother to hide and seek, and she must pay attention to the position of the queen mother.
Later, the queen mother got tired of playing peek-a-boo, and always wanted to run outside, and ran out of the palace gate several times and was discovered by the palace maid and eunuch. persuaded her to go back, but not only did she not go back, but she also mysteriously told others that she was looking for freedom.
What is freedom?
Lu Qingtang still doesn't understand, but she also longs for freedom.
On this day, after lunch, Lu Qingtang went to take a nap with Mo Mo and Mo Bao, Mo Yue was accompanied by a nurse, and slept until the evening, and when she got up, Mo Bao was gone.
At the same time, the Queen Mother was gone, Lu Qingtang immediately felt that the sky was about to fall, she endured the fear in her heart, and led the palace people to turn Longqing Palace upside down, but she never saw the two grandchildren.
Probably the Queen Mother went to find "freedom" again, Lu Qingtang hurriedly told the people in the palace and told them to help find it together.
The concubines of Biyue Palace and the virtuous concubines of Chenghua Palace also sent people out to look for them when they heard about this, and the queen was also in a hurry, and almost all the people in the palace joined in the search for the whereabouts of the queen mother and Mobao.
Mo Zeshen, who heard the news, rushed back from the yamen, he hugged Lu Qingtang, who was trembling, and comforted her softly, without the slightest sense of blame.
Lu Qingtang was originally very strong, she didn't even have red eyes, but as soon as she saw Mo Zeshen, she immediately cried. She lay in his arms, like a child, crying breathlessly.
It was hard for her to imagine where an old man and a young child had gone back, neither of them had the ability to tell the danger,
