Chapter 360 Let me take care of the patient?
Nalan Zhu'er was in a very complicated mood.
"Qing Ning, it would be a lie if I said I didn't care about the people of Southern Xinjiang at all."
"I hate those who gave up on me and poisoned me, but I am also worried about the people in southern Xinjiang."
"Of course, I am more worried about the safety of Concubine Aya Jin and the Crown Prince. To me now, the Chu people are already my family."
Lin Qingning held her hand and said, "I understand how you feel. In fact, you are worried about everyone."
"Don't worry, the army of Da Chu will not kill innocent people indiscriminately."
"Moreover, the significance of this battle is to prevent a greater disaster."
If Xiliang's conspiracy succeeds and the three kingdoms alliance attacks Da Chu, the final result will probably be mutual destruction.
By then, no matter which country the people are from, no one will be immune.
Nalan Zhuer nodded. She said depressedly, "Why do we have to fight a war when we can just live a good life and work in peace and contentment?"
Lin Qingning: "Because of ambition and the pursuit of power."
"Okay, if I have any news about Aya and the others, I will definitely tell you."
Nalan Zhuer nodded.
**
The capital of Yongzhou.
Yongzhou is located at the border between Southern Xinjiang and Da Chu. Originally, there were thirteen counties in total, with six counties in Southern Xinjiang and seven counties in Da Chu.
But last time, Southern Xinjiang lost and lost three counties to Da Chu.
Now there are three counties left...
Inside the house, Qin Jingyu looked at the map, and after explaining it to the generals, he said, "Let's continue to follow this strategy. After the victory in the first battle, we can't let our guard down."
"yes!"
The two armies have already fought once.
The army in southern Xinjiang was in disarray.
They also saw that the Great Chu actually sent the Princess of Xiliang, Concubine Jin in the Emperor Minghe's harem, to attack them.
Now the seeds of doubt have been planted in their hearts. As long as they lose a few more games, they will achieve their goal.
Everyone is busy these days.
The same is naturally true for Crown Prince Qin Jingyu, the commander-in-chief.
After a busy day, when Qin Jingyu was resting in the dormitory, he would look at the jade pendant he carried with him.
I don’t know what Qingning and Yaoyao are doing now?
Did the Queen Mother bully them?
**
Great Chu, Eastern Palace.
"What, the Queen Mother is sick and wants me to take care of her?" Lin Qingning raised her eyebrows.
The first reaction was that the old lady made a move.
Lin Qingning asked Banxia: "Is the Queen Mother really ill? What are the symptoms?"
Banxia: "It is said that he couldn't sleep well at night and felt sleepy during the day. He looked much more haggard. It doesn't seem like he was faking illness."
Lin Qingning: "If the Queen Mother is really ill, I have to go and see her."
Lin Qingning’s pregnancy hasn’t started to show yet, but her morning sickness isn’t as severe as before.
But she did not go to visit herself, but asked Queen Jiang for permission first.
Queen Jiang: "You are pregnant, so you don't need to take care of me. There are people in the palace."
"We can just go and visit them together."
Anyway, Queen Jiang has made up her mind that if things really don't work out, she will stay to take care of the patient, and she can't let Qing Ning suffer from this.
Lin Qingning: "Someone from Cining Palace came to pass on a message, and also said that we should bring Xiyao with us."
"The Queen Mother is ill after all. I don't want to take her there. The child is too young to be infected with the disease."
Queen Jiang immediately said, "No need to bring it. If the Queen Mother has any objections, just give it to the Queen Mother."
Lin Qingning discovered that since her mother became the queen, she has become much more confident than before.
It is said that during this period, every time the Queen Mother wanted to find some excuse to cause trouble, she was suppressed by Queen Jiang.
For example, the Queen Mother said that since the Crown Princess was pregnant, someone had to stay in the Crown Prince's room to serve her.
At that time, we can select some well-behaved ones with clean family backgrounds and take them to southern Xinjiang together.
Queen Jiang refused it outright.
She said that Jing Yu was going to southern Xinjiang to fight, not to travel, and besides, he was not used to being served by a woman, so she didn't take him with her.
As for Qing Ning, she is pregnant and can no longer serve Jing Yu.
Since Jing Yu is not at home, there is no need to find a concubine.
When Queen Jiang spoke, she was not aggressive, but her voice was logical and well-reasoned. For every word the Queen Mother said, she would immediately prepare ten sentences.
The Queen Mother was choked by the soft rejection.
This time, seeing Queen Jiang and the Crown Princess coming together, the Queen Mother, who looked unhappy, sneered:
"The Queen really loves your daughter-in-law. She came to visit me, and you want to accompany her?"
Queen Jiang nodded and said seriously: "Mother, you are right. I really feel sorry for my daughter-in-law. I thought you didn't understand this feeling."
The Queen Mother, who never felt sorry for her daughter-in-law, said: "..."
She suspected that Queen Jiang did it on purpose!
Because Queen Jiang always had an innocent face, which made her so angry!
Looking at the empress dowager whose mouth twitched, Lin Qingning raised the corner of her mouth slightly.
But in the end, he suddenly smelled something and frowned slightly.
Why does it feel like something has been burned in this room?
The Queen Mother no longer paid any attention to Queen Jiang. Instead, she frowned and asked Lin Qingning, "Why didn't you bring Xiao Xiyao with you? Why can't I even see my own great-granddaughter?"
Lin Qingning said calmly, "In reply to the Imperial Grandmother, Yaoyao fell asleep because she was too playful, and my granddaughter-in-law was busy visiting you, so she didn't bring her along."
The Queen Mother: "Can you send someone to check if she is awake now and bring her over!"
That's a bit aggressive.
Lin Qingning smiled and declined, "Let's talk about it next time. By the way, Grandmother, what's wrong with you? What does the imperial physician say?"
The Queen Mother said: "I am sick because of you unfilial people!"
Lin Qingning: "Oh, that's our fault. We will appear in front of you less often in the future."
Queen Mother: “…”
After a few polite words, Queen Jiang took Lin Qingning away. Seeing that they did not come to take care of her, the Queen Mother became very angry again.
After leaving the Cining Palace, Queen Jiang frowned and said, "Qingning, can you tell whether the Queen Mother is really ill or just pretending to be ill?"
Lin Qingning: "The Queen Mother does not look well. But I heard that she was in good health before, so it is suspicious that she suddenly fell ill."
"What did the imperial physician say?"
Queen Jiang: "What the imperial physician said is that he is not in good spirits and needs to rest, but it is also possible that the imperial physician is following the orders of the queen mother."
Lin Qingning: "Mother, I smelled something burning in that palace just now. I remember there was no such smell in the Cining Palace before."
Queen Jiang: "Could it be that the Queen Mother is going to cause trouble again? No, I have to report to His Majesty immediately."
"Qing Ning, you should go back to the East Palace to rest as soon as possible. Remember that when the Queen Mother summons you alone, you should come and find me."
Lin Qingning nodded.
After returning to the East Palace, she was still thinking about this matter.
Su Ziyuan came in and reported, "Master, His Highness has returned with a letter."
Lin Qingning immediately forgot about the Queen Mother. Her eyes lit up and she said, "Let me see it."
Su Ziyuan raised his hands.
Lin Qingning looked at the familiar handwriting on the paper, her eyes softened and she felt relieved.
The letter said that their Great Chu army had already gained the initiative and victory, and everything was developing according to their plan.
Qin Jingyu also told her about the local customs and culture in the letter.
Of course, there is more longing and concern.
Beyond words.
Lin Qingning read it word by word very carefully. After finishing reading, she got up and went to the study.
She wanted to write a reply to Qin Jingyu.
She talked about what happened in the Eastern Palace during this period, and also said that Yaoyao can speak many words now, and even said that she missed her father.
Of course, Lin Qingning also pointed out some abnormalities of the Queen Mother.
She was a little worried before, so she sent a message to Bai Lansheng, asking him to check the secret about the Queen Mother again.
Any secret counts.
But Bai Lansheng hasn't responded yet.
Of course, the letter will also be filled with care, concern, and earnest instructions.
When the letter was finished, she immediately asked Su Ziyuan to take it with her.
Su Ziyuan said, "Your Majesty has also received the military intelligence sent by the Crown Prince, and Your Majesty will also reply. I will send the letter over right away and have someone deliver it to Your Highness quickly."
Lin Qingning nodded slightly.
She couldn't wait for Qin Jingyu to receive the letter as soon as possible.
This is the first time they have been apart for such a long time since they got married.
She was uneasy every moment.
**
Imperial study.
After reading the military report, Emperor Minghe was very satisfied. He wrote a reply to his son, urging him and telling him about the developments in Xiliang.
After seeing Da Chu attacking southern Xinjiang, Xiliang thought that the opportunity had come.
So he extended an olive branch to southern Xinjiang.
But who would have thought that Southern Xinjiang did not trust them.
Xiliang contacted the Western Regions several months later, but was also rejected by the Western Regions.
Under this circumstance, it is the best time for their Great Chu to win!
When someone was sent to deliver the letter, the smile on Emperor Minghe's face had not yet disappeared.
Eunuch Shun said, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother said that you should go to Kunning Palace for dinner tonight."
Emperor Minghe: "Okay."
In the evening, he arrived at Kunning Palace. Queen Jiang came to greet him. After sending away everyone else, she told him about the Queen Mother.
Queen Jiang: "Your Majesty, today I went with the Crown Princess to visit the Queen Mother and I smelled something burning in the Cining Palace."
"Later, when I asked the palace servants, I learned that the Queen Mother had Qingyun Taoist from Qingyun Temple invited into the palace?"
No one knew why, but Queen Jiang always felt vaguely uneasy.
Emperor Minghe comforted him, "It should be that the Queen Mother has not been resting well these days. Let Qingyun Zhenren come and preach to her, right?"
Queen Jiang: "The Queen Mother's illness is so strange, the doctors can't figure it out. And I remember that the Queen Mother has always been in very good health."
Queen Jiang felt that if the old lady didn't make any trouble, she would probably live to be a hundred years old!
But after all the trouble, that may not be the case.
Emperor Minghe originally felt that Empress Jiang was worrying too much.
The Queen Mother is a thoughtful person, so it is understandable that she might think of discussing Taoism with Master Qingyun.
He subconsciously wanted to comfort Queen Jiang and tell her not to think too much.
Queen Jiang suddenly said nervously:
"Your Majesty, do you remember that my sister was in good health before, but suddenly one day, she began to deteriorate?"
