Chapter 411 Mother and Daughter Separation
Hearing the news that his son is missing.
Lu Qingyao went to the Duke's Mansion as soon as possible.
As soon as I entered the mansion, I ran into Madam Mu who was about to go out.
I came here to comfort her.
Instead, the old lady grabbed her hand and led her into the house, comforting her as they walked: "Don't worry, Yaoyao, Feng'er is a lucky man, and he will be fine."
Lu Qingyao pursed her lips tightly, her heart in turmoil.
When she came all the way here, she hoped that the old lady would tell her that it was a false alarm, Cangzhou was not lost, and Feng'er was not missing.
But no.
Feng'er...
She knew the dangers of the battlefield, but now she had to face it for the first time.
She couldn't accept it and felt very anxious.
I wish I could gallop to the border right now.
That was her eldest son, whom she had carried for ten months and raised with her own hands.
These children are her life.
Lu Qingyao held back her tears and followed Madam Mu into the house: "Aunt, is Brother Mu okay? How is his injury?"
"Aji is seriously injured. It is said that he was poisoned..." Madam Mu's eyes were red as she spoke. She held her hand tightly and said, "Yaoyao, do you want to go to the border to find Feng Ge'er?"
Lu Qingyao nodded.
She's going.
If he is alive, I want to see him. If he is dead, I want to see his body.
She wants to bring her son back herself.
If she hadn't wanted to come to the Duke's Mansion first to find out the whole story, she would have been on the way now.
Although victory and defeat are common in war.
But when they were about to return to the court victoriously, they lost Cangzhou. I always felt that something was wrong and strange.
"Aunt, do you know what's going on?"
"Damn those Northern barbarians!" Madam Mu slammed her hand on the table and gritted her teeth, "News from the border says there's a spy in the camp who's leaked military secrets. That villain is colluding with the enemy inside and outside to invade."
She has been longing for a husband and a son all her life.
We were about to return victorious, but at the critical moment, this incident happened.
Damn spy!!
Lu Qingyao understood what was going on.
My father was falsely accused of embezzling military funds, which was probably related to this spy.
I just don't know whether he is Prince Chen's man, or a member of Prince Su's party who slipped through the net.
"Aunt, I'm leaving for the border tomorrow. Do you have anything to say to Brother Mu, or anything you want to bring?"
"Yes...Yaoyao, please bring some medicine for Aji. I asked the Imperial Medical Bureau to prepare them." Old Lady Mu said as she asked someone to bring out a box.
When I opened it, it was full of precious medicinal materials, Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, white pills, black pills...
Various detoxification pills.
"That's...that's all?"
Lu Qingyao remembered that before going to war, she had prepared a whole carriage full of food and clothes for her son.
The north was bitterly cold, and Mu Yunji was injured again.
It's winter now, so you should prepare some winter clothes.
Madam Mu rubbed her forehead and immediately put on a sickly look. She took Lu Qingyao's hand and sighed, "We should have prepared some winter clothes, but I haven't been feeling well lately, and this happened so suddenly. How about asking Yaoyao to help Ah Ji buy some clothes?"
"I'm going?" Lu Qingyao looked surprised.
I always feel that this old lady is weird today.
She had just slapped the table so hard that the porcelain cup was almost broken.
Now he looks sick again.
And Mu Yunji is a dignified Duke, so how could he not have some new clothes at home?
But it is not easy for the old lady to manage such a huge mansion alone.
"Is it okay?" Madam Mu held her forehead and looked at her eagerly.
Lu Qingyao couldn't refuse at all.
It's definitely too late to find someone to make it now, so I can only go to a ready-made clothing store and buy a few sets to make do.
"Aunt, what's the size of Brother Mu's clothes..."
"Here it is." Before Lu Qingyao could finish her words, a piece of paper was stuffed into her hands by Mrs. Mu.
It’s Mu Yunji’s clothing size.
Why does it feel like the old lady prepared it in advance?
Before leaving, Madam Mu held Lu Qingyao's hand again and warned: "Yaoyao, the journey is long, you must pay attention to safety and bring them back safely."
Lu Qingyao nodded: "Don't worry, Auntie."
"The barracks are full of rough men. I'm worried they won't be able to take good care of Aji, so I'm leaving him in your care."
"I?"
Lu Qingyao hesitated for a moment, but still nodded in response: "Don't worry, Auntie."
When she goes to the border, she will have to help Doctor Jun take care of the patients.
Just like before, there is only one patient to take care of, and the same goes for more.
People who are into martial arts don't have so many requirements.
The next morning.
Lu Qingyao bid farewell to Old Madam Lu and entrusted her daughter and son to Princess Yuqing.
Only then was he ready to take Xiuxiu away.
Princess Yuqing sent people to protect her, and they brought several carts of medicinal herbs, clothes, and food...
Like a caravan.
Miaomiao suspected that A Niang was going to do business.
She heard that her godfather was injured and her elder brother was missing, so she wanted to go with them.
He held onto A Niang's hand and refused to let go: "Mom, I want to go find my brother too, and I want to go with you."
She remembered the dreams from her previous life again, and she was afraid that the dreams would come true.
Sometimes fate is like an invisible hand, tightly controlling your life, sooner or later...
She is afraid of separation in life, and even more afraid of separation in death.
Lu Qingyao naturally refused: "You can't go."
It is winter now, with ice and snow everywhere. Even the adults can't stand it, let alone a child.
To be honest, she was really reluctant to leave her daughter.
Since taking their daughter away from the forest, the mother and daughter have never been separated.
But this time, we had to separate.
She hugged her daughter in her arms and said, "Miaomiao, your second brother will take the imperial examination next spring. Can you bear to leave him alone in the capital? If mother can't make it back, you have to send him to the Imperial Examination Hall on her behalf."
Miaomiao: “…Okay.”
I was really controlled by my mother.
Since her mother is not at home, she has to stay with her second brother and give him spiritual encouragement.
The Spring Examination consists of three sessions, which lasts a total of nine days and six nights.
It's very difficult.
She couldn't bear to leave her second brother alone in the capital.
But he was reluctant to let his mother leave.
Since she came into this world, she has never been separated from her mother. Her mother is like the anchor in her heart.
As long as my mother is around, everything will be fine.
It feels like both A Niang and Aunt Xiu Xiu are gone.
This house has lost its soul and feels empty.
"Miaomiao, mother will definitely bring your elder brother back in the spring of next year, and then our family will be reunited." Lu Qingyao hugged her daughter and touched her son's head.
He pushed her to Princess Yuqing cruelly and jumped onto the horse.
Princess Yuqing looked at her daughter and felt a little sad.
The little girl just watched her mother's departing carriage, tears in her eyes, but she didn't cry out loud.
It makes people feel sad.
She took her daughter's hand and said to them, "Let's go. You will follow me for the next few days."
Jiang Ziyan actually felt quite uncomfortable staying in the princess's mansion.
But the princess is Miaomiao's biological mother, and he can't stop her from going. He also doesn't feel comfortable leaving his sister alone with the princess.
A Niang gave him a task.
Look forward to Miaomiao.
The princess was sometimes a little unreliable, and when things really didn't work out, she would send her sister to Cui's house.
It just so happened that he also wanted to go to Cui's house.
The Cui family's collection of books is unique in Daliang.
Less than an hour after A Niang left, Princess Rong'an came riding back with a bundle in her hand.
She got the news late.
Her mother blocked the news from the palace. If she hadn't discovered the maids whispering in the palace, she would probably never have known that her fiancé was missing.
She jumped off the horse and squatted in front of the little girl: "Miaomiao, where are your mother and aunt?"
Miaomiao: "I left... I walked for a long time and couldn't catch up. Sister Yuan, don't go. With my mother and aunt, big brother will be fine."
My sister has such a delicate body, I’m afraid she can’t go there.
Aunt Princess must not want her to go.
"No, I want to go." Princess Rong'an looked in the direction of leaving the city with a firm gaze.
She used to think that her feelings for Feng Ge'er were not that deep.
Perhaps it was during the days of anticipation and waiting, and in letters, that they expressed their true feelings to each other.
Gradually, our hearts grew closer and closer.
So the moment I heard that Feng Ge'er was missing.
Her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by someone, making it hard for her to breathe.
Afraid of never seeing him again.
Jiang Ziyan knew that persuasion was useless, so he handed the key to Princess Rong'an. "Princess, this is what my mother gave you. She wants you to help manage the affairs of the mansion."
Princess Rong'an was stunned for a moment, but still took it.
