Chapter 116 The Headdress Awarded by the Queen Mother
Lu Chenshuang told the Queen the test results and gave her the prepared medicine.
The queen quickly asked her personal maid to accept it.
To be on the safe side and to reassure the queen, Lu Chenshuang said, "My medicines are different from the usual ones. Your Majesty, you can ask the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital to examine them first, and then decide whether to use them."
The Queen smiled and replied, "Look at what Miss Lu is saying. If I didn't trust you, why would I let you come to Chaoyang Palace?"
I was able to get pregnant because I listened to your advice and took your medicine, which gave me the good fortune to have this child.
Although my relationship with you is not as good as that of the eldest princess, I have absolute trust in you."
Regardless of whether the queen really trusted Lu Chenshuang, she said it very beautifully.
After asking this question, the queen asked about the issue that concerned her most, which was whether the baby in her belly was a boy or a girl.
Lu Chenshuang also told her the test results. If nothing goes wrong, it should be a princess.
The Queen was very happy after hearing this, and Lu Chenshuang was relieved to see that her expression did not seem fake.
The ancients valued boys over girls, especially in the imperial palace, where a prince had much higher status than a princess.
If the prince could ascend the throne one day, he would be the most noble person in the world.
Lu Chenshuang felt that no matter who inherited the throne in the future, the queen would be the rightful empress dowager, so it was normal that she didn't care much about whether the baby in her belly was a boy or a girl.
After coming out of the Queen's Chaoyang Palace, Lu Chenshuang went to Shoukang Palace to pay her respects to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother was naturally happy to see Lu Chenshuang. She asked several questions about the fetus in the Queen's belly, which showed that she was concerned about the Queen.
When the Queen Mother heard Lu Chenshuang say that the Queen and the baby in her belly were fine, she breathed a sigh of relief. She held Lu Chenshuang's hand and said, "The Queen has always wanted a child, and now she finally got her wish.
I am also happy for her from the bottom of my heart.
It's better for her to be a princess, so that she won't be involved in a dispute over the throne in the future and hurt the relationship between her and the emperor."
There is no family in heaven. In the face of huge temptation, fathers and sons, brothers, and husbands and wives can all end up fighting against each other.
As an elder, the Queen Mother is most reluctant to see this situation.
If the queen gave birth to a princess, who would have no chance of inheriting the throne, then he and the queen could be of one mind.
Lu Chenshuang knew that the Queen Mother did not treat her as an outsider and that was why she said these things to her.
Lu Chenshuang said with a smile: "Empress Dowager, the emperor is now in his prime, you should not worry about these things.
All you have to do is be happy and healthy every day."
The Queen Mother was immediately delighted when she heard this. Who doesn’t have worries when born into a royal family?
But when it comes to health, the Queen Mother looked at Lu Chenshuang and said: "The medicine you gave me is really effective.
In the past, I was considered lucky if I could sleep half a night. But these past few days, I have actually slept until dawn, and after waking up, I feel refreshed and energetic all over.
Bring me a few more bottles when you come to the palace next time."
Lu Chenshuang smiled and said, "It's no problem if the Queen Mother likes it.
But this medicine is for conditioning the body. Once it has been conditioned to a certain degree, you can no longer take it. After all, taking too much medicine is not good for you. "
The Queen Mother patted Lu Chenshuang's hand and said, "I understand. You are a good child who only cares about me."
If it were anyone else, they would be too busy to take credit for it. No one is as honest as Lu Chenshuang.
The Queen Mother looked at Nanny Fang and said, "Go to my storehouse and get the ruby headpiece that I treasure."
Upon hearing this, Nanny Fang quickly agreed and soon came back holding an exquisite box.
The Queen Mother took the box and opened it carefully.
The ruby face inside almost blinded Lu Chenshuang's titanium dog eyes.
This face is really beautiful. The ruby has reached the color of pigeon blood red. It looks pure, saturated, bright, and without any impurities.
Lu Chenshuang couldn't describe the beauty of this set of jewelry. But it was just beautiful, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it.
The Queen Mother stroked the jewelry and said, "This was the betrothal gift from the royal family when I was promoted to Crown Princess.
I haven't been willing to wear it for all these years, but today I'm giving it to you."
Lu Chenshuang didn't dare to say a word after hearing this. The Queen Mother meant that this set of jewelry was given to her, which was too expensive. But what should she do really?
Lu Chenshuang took a deep breath and suppressed her inner restlessness, saying, "Queen Mother, this is too expensive. I can't accept it."
The Queen Mother looked at her disdainfully and said, "Child, are you still going to be so distant with me?
This headdress has been my collection for many years.
I would like to wear it now, but unfortunately it is not appropriate for me at my age.
It is better to give it to you. You are now at the age of a flower, and it is just right for you to wear it. "
Lu Chenshuang smiled and said, "Since it is the Queen Mother's loving heart, I will not refuse it."
When the Queen Mother saw that Lu Chenshuang no longer refused, she also felt happy.
Lu Chenshuang has saved several people who are related to her by blood. In her heart, they are all very important people, and she has always been grateful to Lu Chenshuang.
Now that the Queen is pregnant again, the baby in her belly is her grandson, so the Queen Mother is not stingy with this set of headgear that she has treasured for a long time.
Lu Chenshuang carried the box out of the palace and returned to her residence.
Mu Hansu said he wanted to ask me for help, but there was no response and Lu Chenshuang did not take the initiative to look for him.
The main reason was that Lu Chenshuang didn't know where he lived, and since she was asking for help, it would seem like she was trying to curry favor with him.
That day, Lin sent someone to tell her that she missed her and wanted her to come home for dinner.
Lu Chenshuang hadn't been home for many days, so it was difficult for her to refuse. She dressed up nicely and went straight back to the Lu Mansion.
As soon as Lu Chenshuang left her house, Mu Hansu received the news that Lu Chenshuang was returning to the Lu Mansion.
He really couldn't leave because of important matters in the military camp these days, and he didn't see Lu Chenshuang.
However, after receiving the news from the secret guards, he called his deputy general, briefly explained the affairs of the military camp, and then left the camp.
Lu Chenshuang was treated differently when she returned to the Lu Mansion this time. As soon as she got off the carriage, the servant at the door came to greet her and said with a smile: "Meet the young lady, the young lady is back home."
This boy is no longer the one who spoke to Lu Chenshuang in a sarcastic tone last time.
This should be Lin’s new doorman.
Seeing that the servant was so polite and attentive, Lu Chenshuang asked Xiaoman to give him ten taels of silver. This made the servant so happy that he lost his mind.
As soon as I entered the second gate, I saw Shaoyao waiting there.
She stepped forward to greet Lu Chenshuang and said with a smile: "Miss, the Madam has changed the courtyard.
I was afraid you couldn't find the way, so I asked my servant to come and greet you."
Lu Chenshuang smiled and replied, "Thank you, Aunt Shaoyao. What is my mother doing at home?"
As they walked, Shaoyao smiled and told her about Lin's recent situation.
