Riding the Pheonix Chapter 308: Mother and son
Yang Shu went to Qianqiu Palace anyway.
As the emperor said, the imperial concubine is ill.
He said hello outside his dormitory, and the palace servant came out to send a message: "The empress said that the Third Young Master is interested. He has just come out of the prison, and the Third Young Master should go back and rest early. In a few days, the luggage prepared for you will be delivered. Go to the Marquis Mansion."
Yang Shu agreed and said goodbye.
After leaving the palace, his eyes became a little wet.
What about it? They are not allowed to meet like this.
Fu Jin has already told him through Ning Xiu why he was released from prison smoothly.
If Concubine Pei hadn't taken advantage of the miscarriage to capture the emperor's will, Lu Qian would have had to plan carefully and find a good opportunity before he dared to plead.
Thinking of the truth about Concubine Pei's illness, the anger in Yang Shu's chest almost overflowed.
Miscarriage! It turned out to be a miscarriage!
How could it be such a coincidence that I had a miscarriage at this time? He didn't even believe it was an accident, the timing was so perfect!
Furthermore, she cannot be considered weak physically, she is just older.
Maybe the pregnancy is a coincidence, but the miscarriage is definitely not!
"Young Master?" Ah Xuan called out when he saw something wrong with his expression.
Yang Shu lowered his head and wiped away his tears before getting on the carriage: "Go back home!"
"Yes."
A few days later, the Hou Mansion received several large boxes of things from Concubine Pei.
Clothes, medicinal materials, utensils, and even a lot of food that can be preserved for a long time.
Awan packed them into her luggage one by one.
Yang Shu sat in silence and didn't speak much for several days.
Awan was very worried and wanted to persuade him but didn’t know what to say.
At this time, Mingwei finally delivered the news.
……
Xuan Fei glanced at the group of people in front of him and frowned: "Do you think we are going for a spring outing? There are so many people!"
Mingwei brought a lot of blessings. Ah Xuan and Ah Wan were both on Yang Shu's side.
"How many do you want to bring?"
"Maximum two."
Mingwei glanced at him and said, "Okay, just the two of us."
No need to fight.
Xuanfei led them into an altar and warned: "Stay here. If there is an emergency, just knock the chime on the table."
Then he took Mingwei and Yang Shu into the back hall.
The altar table for the statue in the back hall was pushed open, revealing a very small hole.
Xuanfei led them in, lighting torches and marching through the secret passage.
At every corner, there is a protective formation.
With Xuanfei leading the way, the group traveled smoothly.
We walked like this for an hour before we arrived at our destination.
Xuanfei pushed aside the stone slab and the three of them climbed out of a well.
Yang Shu looked up and asked, "Is this a shrine?"
"Yes." /
Speaking of this, Mingwei did not expect that Xuanfei would do it so cleanly.
She originally thought that she would enter the palace through a secret passage, so she tried to cover up her whereabouts and took Yang Shu into Qianqiu Palace.
Unexpectedly, Xuanfei found a way to inform Concubine Pei.
Meeting at the shrine is much safer than meeting at Qianqiu Palace.
The national master who can do demon magic is indeed quite capable.
While they were talking, an old Taoist came over and led them to the side hall.
The three of them didn't wait long before there was a commotion outside. They heard a slightly sharp voice saying: "Be careful! The queen is better and can't see the wind."
Yang Shu heard that this was Cui Shun from Qianqiu Palace.
Concubine Pei is indeed here.
He clenched his fists unconsciously and breathed slightly.
I have seen Concubine Pei countless times in the past, but this time, the meaning is different.
This is the first time he met after knowing his life experience.
Outside, Concubine Pei got off the warm sedan and was helped into the memorial hall.
Burn incense, light candles, and pray to gods. At the end, Concubine Pei stroked the empty swaddling clothes and said, "Let me and my undestined child stay alone for a while. You all can go down."
She looked pale and looked sad, but no one suspected anything. Before Cui Shun left, he also said a few words: "Don't be too sad, otherwise the little prince will not feel at ease when he leaves."
Concubine Pei nodded: "I know, you go ahead."
The palace servants withdrew one by one, leaving only Concubine Pei, kneeling and sitting in front of the statue, holding her baby in her arms.
After a while, she heard a slight noise behind her and turned around.
Yang Shu came out of the side hall and looked at her blankly.
Concubine Pei blinked, tears slipped from her eyes and fell on the swaddling clothes.
Yang Shu looked at her and approached step by step.
When he arrived in front of Concubine Pei, he didn't say anything. He just knelt down and lowered his head deeply.
Concubine Pei stretched out her hands tremblingly, held him in her arms, and choked with sobs: "My child..."
I could no longer suppress my emotions and burst into tears.
Cui Shun outside heard vaguely and couldn't help but feel sad.
Your Majesty really feels sorry for this little prince who has no luck, and she will report it to His Majesty later, so that His Majesty will take pity on him.
In the hall, Yang Shu burst into tears, but did not dare to raise his head.
Until Mingwei's gentle reminder came to my ears: "Hurry up, the imperial concubine cannot stay too long."
She had just had a miscarriage for a few days and should have been lying in bed to rest. This time I just found a reason to go to the shrine to offer incense. After a long time, the people who serve will definitely feel uneasy.
Concubine Pei also woke up, smiled gratefully at her, and wiped the tears from her face.
The mother and son got up ~IndoMTL.com~ and went to the side to talk.
"Do you know everything?" Concubine Pei asked softly.
Yang Shu nodded and said solemnly: "I... met Mr. Fu."
Concubine Pei showed a look of sadness: "I didn't expect Mr. Fu to still remember this promise. He is really a trustworthy gentleman. I originally thought that after my aunt left, no one would know the truth anymore."
The aunt she calls is the eldest princess. The eldest princess is the current eldest sister, but she is the aunt of the emperor's eldest grandson.
When Yang Shu heard her mention the eldest princess, his heart felt sour.
When his grandmother was still alive, he never knew that they paid so much for him, and he complained in his heart that they left him alone. Now he knew, but he could never see them again.
He mustered up the courage, looked at Concubine Pei in front of him, and asked the question.
"You...you didn't enter the palace voluntarily, you did it for me, right?"
Concubine Pei looked gloomy, but she smiled at him: "Mom doesn't want to lie to you. It is true that she did not enter the palace voluntarily, but she has enjoyed the glory these years. Don't feel guilty. Compared with being widowed at a young age, It’s not a bad idea to remarry.”
She said it easily, but Yang Shu almost shed tears.
Compared to being widowed at the age of eighteen, he really hopes that his mother can remarry. However, it must be the man the mother wants to marry, not someone she is forced to serve.
Seeing him like this, Concubine Pei stretched out her hand to touch his face, which looked very much like hers and her husband's. Her eyes were gentle and sentimental: "Now that you know the truth, you should understand that he can't tolerate you. If you go to the northwest, don't go back to Beijing. Let's do a good job there. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the news there is not so easy to spread back to the capital. As for the future, you have to do what you can. You must take care of yourself first. You are well, and your mother is thousands of miles away. Only then can I feel at ease."
