Chapter 374 Princess, the prince...is not breathing?
Lan Xiyue followed Eunuch Xi's footsteps and gently stepped into the threshold of Cining Palace.
She walked up to the Queen Mother and bowed, "Greetings, Queen Mother."
The queen mother sat at the head of the table, her face kind and her eyes gleaming with gentle light. She waved gently, her tone doting, "Girl Yue, come and sit down."
Lan Xiyue followed the instructions and walked to the Queen Mother and slowly sat down.
The Queen Mother looked at her carefully, a satisfied smile on her lips. "I've been wanting to talk to you for a while now, but that brat Yuan'er was afraid I'd scare you, so he kept putting me off. Tonight, we really need to have a good chat."
Lan Xiyue heard this and a gentle smile appeared on her lips: "Thank you for your kindness, Queen Mother. It is a blessing for Xiyue to have the Queen Mother's inquiry."
The Queen Mother took Lan Xiyue's hand and said, "I have always been worried about Yuan'er. He is not interested in women, and I am afraid that he will not have a close and caring person to accompany him in the future. I didn't expect that he would love you so much after meeting you. I was worried that I would die without seeing him get married."
"The Queen Mother is in good health and will surely live a long life."
The Queen Mother shook her head, a trace of loneliness flashing in her eyes: "I know my health. I am old and I won't live for many more years."
The Queen Mother paused and sighed, "I raised Linchuan single-handedly. Last night, I summoned her to the palace to speak, and she became silent. I could tell that she hasn't had a good life in Saibei for five years, but when I asked her the specific reason, she refused to say anything."
At this point, the Queen Mother frowned.
Lan Xiyue frowned and casually felt the empress dowager's pulse. The empress dowager was indeed in poor health.
The Queen Mother patted Lan Xiyue's hand and said, "I am already old. Death is not a scary thing for me. I don't have many regrets if I can see Yuan'er get married and have children."
Lan Xiyue stood up, walked gently behind the Queen Mother, and began to massage her head with skillful and gentle movements.
The Queen Mother was startled for a moment, then closed her eyes, an expression of enjoyment on her face: "Girl Yue also knows how to massage?"
Lan Xiyue whispered softly, "I know a little bit. What do you think of the strength, Queen Mother?"
The Queen Mother's lips curled up into a smile, and her tone was a little satisfied: "Comfortable, really very comfortable, Yue girl, you are really clever and skillful, even more delicate than those female doctors."
Lan Xiyue heard this and a gentle smile appeared on her lips, but she changed the subject: "Queen Dowager, please don't worry too much about Princess Linchuan. Whether she lives a good life or not is ultimately her own choice."
The Queen Mother sighed softly upon hearing this. "That being said, I have pampered and raised her since she was a child. She should have been a carefree princess, but now she has become timid and fearful. It is truly heartbreaking. I'm sure she suffered a lot during her time in Saibei. That Saibei King swore to me five years ago that he would treat Linchuan well. I never expected that... I strongly opposed it at the time, but that girl Linchuan was determined to marry to Saibei."
Upon hearing this, Lan Xiyue paused slightly, then returned to normal and remained silent.
At this moment, a steady sound of footsteps broke the silence in the room, and Mo Liyuan stepped into the room, "Mother!"
The Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes, patted Lan Xiyue's hand, and signaled her to stop.
Lan Xiyue obediently stopped what she was doing and stepped aside.
The Queen Mother looked at Mo Liyuan with a loving smile on her face: "Yuan'er, you're here. Miss Yue's technique is really good. My head feels much more comfortable after she massaged it. I will definitely have a good sleep tonight."
Mo Liyuan stepped forward and took Lan Xiyue's hand, "Queen Mother, please get some rest. Yue'er and I won't disturb you any longer."
The Queen Mother smiled and waved her hand: "Go, go."
Lan Xiyue followed Mo Liyuan out of the palace and got on the carriage.
Tianyi drove the carriage and galloped through the night.
Inside the carriage, Mo Liyuan gently rubbed Lan Xiyue's hand, while Lan Xiyue snuggled in his arms, "Mo Liyuan, the Queen Mother is not feeling well."
Mo Liyuan lowered his eyes, his gaze filled with worry: "Yuer, do you have any way to treat mother?"
Lan Xiyue pursed her lips with a complicated expression, thinking: The Queen Mother is old, and her organs are failing and degenerating. If her space can be upgraded to the maximum level, with the spiritual spring water, perhaps the Queen Mother's failing organs can be repaired.
"Yuer?"
Lan Xiyue lowered her eyebrows and whispered, "The Queen Mother's organs are all failing and aging, and ordinary medicines are no longer effective, but..."
Mo Liyuan held Lan Xiyue's hand tightly, "But what? Yue'er, do you have a solution?"
Lan Xiyue was slightly startled, then a faint smile appeared on her lips. She thought for a moment and said, "Actually, if my space is upgraded to the maximum level and I have the Manling Spring Water, this water may be able to repair the Queen Mother's aging organs."
System: "Master, it's not just a possibility. Spiritual Spring Water can definitely repair aging organs."
"I know, I know, system!"
Mo Liyuan was puzzled when he heard this: "What spiritual spring water?"
Lan Xiyue told him about the space and the effects of the spiritual spring water. Mo Liyuan hugged Lan Xiyue tightly and said, "Yuer, I am so lucky to have met you. After our wedding, you can go to Fengcheng with me. There are many injured soldiers on the battlefield who are in urgent need of medical treatment. But it will be hard for me, Yueer."
"I will be very happy to earn merit, and I am not afraid of hard work."
Outside the carriage, Tianyi softly reminded: "Your Majesty, we have arrived at the Lan Mansion."
Mo Liyuan kissed Lan Xiyue on the forehead, his voice low and gentle: "Yue'er, wait for the day of my wedding to marry you."
Lan Xiyue nodded slightly, got off the carriage, and stepped into the gate of the Lan Mansion.
Mo Liyuan watched her leave until her figure disappeared behind the door, then he said lightly: "Go back home."
As soon as Lan Xiyue returned to the attic, Chuchun and Chuxia came to greet her.
"Miss, you're back."
Lan Xiyue smiled and nodded. Chuchun said with a smile, "Just now, the eldest young master sent a small lantern to ask if the young lady had returned."
Lan Xiyue looked at Chuxia: "Chuxia, go tell big brother that I'm back and I'm fine, so he won't worry."
Chuxia responded and turned to leave.
Lan Xiyue called softly: "An Yi!"
An Yi flashed out from the shadows and knelt on one knee: "What are your orders, Princess?"
"Chuchun, go down and prepare some hot water. I'll take a shower later."
Upon hearing this, Chuchun bowed slightly and retreated.
Lan Xiyue walked in slowly, and with a flash of thought, Mo Yufeng's body appeared out of thin air on the ground.
"An Yi, come in!"
An Yi walked into the room with his brows lowered. When his eyes fell on the corpse on the ground, he was suddenly startled. "Prince?" he exclaimed in a low voice, quickly squatting down to examine it carefully.
His fingers trembled slightly, and after confirming that everything was correct, he looked up at Lan Xiyue, his voice trembling slightly: "Princess, the prince...is not breathing?"
An Yi muttered in his heart: What happened when the princess entered the palace? The prince...how come the prince's body appeared here?
