Chapter 160: A Temporary Breath of Relief (1)
What touched him was Citron's sentence "October is pregnant with great kindness, and three lives are rewarded lightly". Concubine Luo Gui is sorry for him, but it is true that she gave birth to him and gave him life after being pregnant in October and gave him life. He was about to die, so how could he remain indifferent? Then what was the difference between him and Concubine Luo's behavior of abandoning her husband and son?He could not forgive her, but after all he couldn't just watch her die!

After a long time, Ling Mengqi finally opened his mouth: "Aunt Citron, get up first, I promise to go with you, but I'm ugly to say first, first, I didn't agree to go with you because I was afraid of death, and second, I'm not a doctor , I can only do my best and obey the destiny, aunt, please lead the way!"

Citron was overjoyed when he heard that he was willing to go with him, and he couldn't care less about other things, so he hurriedly responded: "I understand, I understand, I'll take my brother there now, I'll take my brother there now..." He said struggling Getting up from the ground, without caring about rubbing his sore knee, he graciously led Ling Mengqi to Concubine Luo's bedroom.

Concubine Luo's sleeping hall is not as grand as the main hall in front, but very simple and elegant, and it's not too big, it's just a small and exquisite three rooms. The gauze cupboard is separated, and people who don't know it will never believe that this is the bedroom of the emperor's most beloved concubine.

After Citron led Ling Mengqi into the room, he went straight to Concubine Luo's bedroom in the west room, but the west room was divided into two rooms, the main room and the second room, with rosewood carved Wanfu Wanshou border inlaid with large glazed partitions, and some furniture items were placed in front. Supposedly, there is a huanghuali babu bed at the back. Concubine Luo Gui was lying on this bed at that time, her eyes were tightly closed, her cheeks were flushed with heat, and she still yelled angrily from time to time: "Brother Yuan Brother Yuan, it's all mother's fault..." A few strands of sweat-soaked hair cling to her forehead, which is no longer the beauty of the past, but it is even more worrying.

As for the imperial physicians and servants, none of them have been seen, and they must have been dismissed in advance.

As soon as Citron entered the room, he threw himself in front of Concubine Luo's bed, whispered in her ear, "Madam, Brother Yuan saw you coming, wake up, Brother Yuan really saw you coming, you just need to open your eyes You can see him when you open your eyes, wake up..."

Concubine Luo Guifei didn't show any sign of opening her eyes, she was still asleep, her breath was so weak that if she didn't call "Brother Yuan" occasionally, Citron would have thought she was gone.

Citron yelled a few more times, seeing that Concubine Luo Gui still didn't respond, she had to look at Ling Mengqi and begged, "Brother, why don't you try and call her 'mother' in her ear, see Can you wake up the lady?"

After all, Ling Mengqi is not a hard-hearted person, seeing this situation, how could he not feel uncomfortable?Just asking him to call Concubine Luo "Mother" just like this is not enough, even if the situation is urgent, he can't, so he just squatted beside Concubine Luo's bed and said in a low voice: "I am Ling Mengqi, I see your mother I'm here, I hope your mother will recover soon." There was no other words.

Naturally, it is impossible for Concubine Luo to react so easily. Seeing this, Citron was so anxious that she couldn't help crying again, so she could only continue to beg Ling Mengqi: "Brother, please show mercy, just be the one in front of you." It's not the empress, but a stranger next to her, just call her 'mother', maybe the empress really wakes up when she hears you shouting like that?"

Ling Mengqi still refused to call Concubine Luo Gui his mother, but seeing how pitiful she was, he couldn't help feeling sorry for her, gently held her hand, and repeated what he had just said: "I am Ling Meng Qi, I see that the empress is here, I hope that the empress can recover soon, you must know that you still have a pair of children, the fourth prince and the seventh princess, they are still young, without the care and protection of the mother concubine, I don’t know what will happen in the future How can you bear to see such a situation with a motherly heart? So you should wake up as soon as possible..."

About an hour later, Citron's pleasantly surprised voice came from the bedroom: "Your Majesty is awake, Your Majesty is awake—Prince Physician, Physician, come in and feel your pulse—"

Ever since the old man left Dingguo's mansion and entered the palace, Mrs. Lu's heart has been on fire. She wanted to come back with good news as soon as possible, but she was afraid that the news would be bad. At noon, let alone eat, I'm not even in the mood to take a sip of water.

Seeing this, Nanny Zhang couldn't help persuading: "The old man has gone through so many storms and waves all his life as a soldier. In the past, he was able to turn disasters into good luck and turn bad luck into good luck. Now it is naturally the same. Please relax, or you will wait for the old man." Master came back safely, but you are starving, isn't it worth it?"

Mrs. Lu sighed: "How did you know that sometimes these wars without gunpowder smoke are even more dangerous than fighting with real swords and guns on the battlefield? Especially this time it involves the emperor's private affairs back then. How can I do it?" Relax?"

Nanny Zhang also fell silent. Although she didn't understand the twists and turns in the court, she didn't dare to waste the holy will, but just like the stewards in the mansion, once someone below knew their secrets or Regarding private matters, no matter whether the person accidentally knew about it or even the steward told him, wouldn't the steward not feel uncomfortable afterward, and then change the way to put the man's shoes on?In the same way, the emperor's mind is probably similar to this now, so it's no wonder that the old lady is so worried.

Both the master and the servant sighed for a while, and were speechless for a while. Mrs. Lu saw that there was no news, but she couldn't sit still. She was about to send someone out to find someone who was with the old man when she heard something outside. A servant girl's voice came: "The old man is back——"

As if she had found a treasure, Mrs. Lu stood up with agility that did not match her age at all, and hurriedly greeted her.

Sure enough, seeing the old man in court clothes striding in, with no expression of joy or anger on his face, Mrs. Lu couldn't help but tighten her heart. Could it be that the old man was still a step late, praying for his brother? ...However, after many years of nourishing energy, Mrs. Lu was still calm and didn't ask anything, but went forward to bow her knees and said: "The old man is back."

The old man nodded, "Well, let's go into the room and talk." Dang entered the room.

Mrs. Lu hurriedly followed in, first handed a cup of tea to the old man, and then turned away all the servants in the room, and asked anxiously: "What is the situation in the palace now? How is Concubine Luo? Your Majesty What about it? And Brother Qi, wouldn’t it be a step too late for you to go?”

The old man drank the tea in the cup in one go, and ordered Nanny Zhang to pour a cup and ate half a cup before saying, "When I went in, Concubine Luo Guifei had already woken up, and she was able to take the medicine. The imperial doctor said As long as you can take the medicine, there should be no danger to your life. The emperor has been guarding her since she woke up, so I didn't see the emperor, but I saw the emperor's eunuch Gao... Unexpectedly, the reason why the emperor made people bring Brother Qi into the palace was that Concubine Luo kept calling Brother Qi's name in a coma. Naturally, he knew it all too well, so he desperately begged the emperor to send someone to take Brother Qi into the palace immediately, saying that maybe Brother Qi could wake up Concubine Luo? The emperor was unwilling at first, but the imperial doctors were helpless. He almost told the emperor to prepare for the funeral. The emperor had no choice but to send Eunuch Gao to go to the Jinyi Guards to get Brother Qi himself. He didn't want Brother Qi to actually wake up Concubine Luo. Now the emperor's heart is overjoyed. The most important thing is that Luo Guifei is protecting me, I thought Brother Qi would not be in any danger, so I came back."
