Hearing what Aunt Lu said, Luo Lan frowned and asked worriedly,
"Where is she? How is she now?"
Madam Lu sighed deeply, turbid tears sliding down her cheeks, and she murmured:
"She died a year ago."
These words hit Luo Lan's heart like a heavy hammer. According to Leng Yu, this Nanny Sun was still young, how could she die suddenly?
She asked again:
"How did she die? What happened to her after Leng Yu's accident?"
Only then did Madam Lu begin to speak intermittently.
It turned out that after Leng Yu got into trouble, Nanny Sun knelt in front of the emperor's study for three days and three nights, begging the emperor to let her go to Prince Yu's Mansion to take care of Prince Yu. However, the emperor was furious at the time, and with people around him fanning the flames, how could he agree to her wish?
Later, Nanny Sun fainted at the door of the imperial study. Concubine Chang was kind enough to order someone to take her away. However, later she heard that she had gone crazy. In order to prevent her from hurting people in the palace and considering her contribution in taking care of Leng Yu, Concubine Chang ordered someone to lock her up in a separate courtyard.
From then on, she disappeared without a trace. Aunt Lu, who was on good terms with her, went to see her several times but never saw her. Even the things she brought for her were not delivered.
Two years ago, because of a mistake she made, Madam Lu was sent to the laundry department by the head madam of Concubine Li. From then on, she lived a life here like neither human nor ghost.
Until a year ago, she was really missing Nanny Sun and wanted to visit her at night, but she learned from a little palace maid that Nanny Sun had died.
At this point, Madam Lu raised the handkerchief in her hand, wiped her tears, and murmured:
"Her death was so unjust. She missed Prince Yu the most, but she never got to see him even when she died. Sigh!"
Listening to Aunt Lu's intermittent words, Luo Lan's brows tightened even more.
Nanny Sun went crazy, was locked up, and then died.
This was what she had heard about Nanny Sun, but the result was too cruel.
Madam Lu sighed and asked in a low voice:
"Princess Yu, how is Prince Yu now? I heard he's not doing well."
Luo Lan raised his eyes to look at her, pursed his lips and said softly:
"Prince Yu is doing well now. He is worried about Madam Sun, so he asked me to come to the palace to ask about her."
Hearing her words, Lu Mama's tears slid down her cheeks again, and she murmured:
"If she knew that Prince Yu still cared about her, she would definitely be happy, she would definitely be happy."
When she said this, her eyes were a little empty and her expression became a little sad.
Looking at her wrinkled face and her dry hands, Luo Lan asked softly:
"Madam Lu, how can I help you?"
"Need not."
Madam Lu shook her head decisively. "I'm used to it. Anyway, my old bones are getting shorter and shorter. Surviving in this harem, a few beatings and scoldings are nothing. But thank you Princess Yu for helping me just now."
At this point, she stood up, holding onto the stone table beside her.
"I have work to do, so please go ahead."
Leaving these words behind, she trembled and walked step by step towards the yard where she had just been beaten.
Looking at her back, Ah Cai said sadly:
"She's so pitiful. She's so old, and she's still doing this kind of heavy work. If she doesn't do it well, she'll get beaten."
Luo Lan frowned and sighed:
"This world is just like this. Just like Prince Yu, he's been bedridden for three years, living a life neither human nor ghost. There are definitely people who sympathize with him, but who can change anything?"
After she finished speaking, she slowly stood up, glanced at Aunt Lu who was washing clothes, and said to Ah Hong and Ah Cai beside her:
"Madame Sun is dead. There's no point in staying here any longer. Let's go back!"
When a person dies, it's like a light goes out, no matter what she has done.
She once raised Leng Yu to adulthood, but in the end, she did not have a good end. Leng Yu must be extremely sad to hear this news.
But this is a fact that no one can change, and she doesn't want to hide it from him, so after returning to Prince Yu's Mansion, she will tell Leng Yu everything she learned from Nanny Lu.
Leng Yu sat in silence, not saying a word, but his eyes were already red.
"Leng Yu, Nanny Sun must want you to be well, so the only way to reassure her is for you to get better, better than anyone else."
After a long silence, Leng Yu looked up at her and said word by word:
"You're right. Nanny Sun treated me like her own mother. She died because of me. She had a cheerful personality and I don't believe she would go crazy. One day, I will definitely find out the truth about this matter. Lan'er, can I ask for a tablet for Nanny Sun to worship at home?"
"Husband."
Luo Lan reached across the table and grabbed his hand. His fingers were cold, like ice, chilling to the bone.
"Of course, as you said, she took care of you like your mother. If you set up a memorial tablet for her at home, she will be able to see you as usual and feel at ease. I'll have someone do it tomorrow morning."
Leng Yuhui held her hand and nodded with satisfaction, "Lan'er, thank you."
"Between you and me, there's no need to say thank you. We're heading to Ningguta, and the road ahead is unknown. You must return safely."
"Don't worry!"
He looked at her and chuckled softly, "Originally, I should have finished dealing with things here before going, but this matter can't be resolved overnight. I can't wait. I don't want my brothers to suffer for me anymore. But don't worry, I will come back safely. I will bring my brothers back, and then... I will find evidence that Leng Yun framed me, and make him pay the price for this matter. Let everyone who has interfered with this matter pay the price as well."
There was a coldness in his eyes that didn't belong in his eyes.
Luo Lan held his hand tightly and nodded heavily.
"Good and evil will be rewarded in the end. I know you are anxious, but if you want to rescue them safely from Ningguta, I think you can find someone."
Leng Yu looked at her solemnly, "You mean, Yu Dechang?"
Luo Lan nodded. "Yes, from what Xiao Lingzi said, I can tell that he is a relatively upright person. He has people in Ningguta, so perhaps he can help you."
"No need. I can't cause him any trouble. Don't worry, I have a way to get them out."
Luo Lan knew that Leng Yu must be extremely anxious at this moment. She could even feel that since Xiao Lingzi came back, he didn't dare to think about his brothers. Once he thought of them, he would grit his teeth in hatred and tremble all over.
The next morning, she called Xiao Lingzi, Zhang Yuan, A Yu and A Hou over and told them about this matter. Although they were a little surprised, they still agreed.
"Don't worry, Princess. We will protect the prince."
"Yes, we will bring the prince and his brothers back safely."
"This time, we will do our best..."
