After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray

It can be seen from the kick that Zheng Xian gave Wei Chang that he was indeed very angry.

But what's the point of getting angry? Fortunately, the dart didn't hit my vital point, otherwise I would have died long ago.

I calmed down and asked, "Has anything special happened in this yard recently?"

He Tian thought for a moment and said, "There is nothing special, except that the senior maids serving the Queen Mother have been returning to the palace more frequently."

I remember Mingyue, Qingfeng and the other two. They looked good, but their eyes were on the top of their heads and their attitudes were arrogant, which made people feel disgusted.

So I asked, "Have they returned to the palace again today?"

He Tian said: "Only Mingyue has returned to the palace today, the other three are still waiting in the house."

Zheng Xian had originally sent a dozen young palace maids that day, and the ones who actually served Madam Lu were the young palace maids, and the four of them were not needed at all. The four of them came along, nominally to take care of Madam Lu, but in fact they were sent by the Queen Mother to monitor Madam Lu, and anyone with a discerning eye could see it.

I said, "Okay."

Just went straight into the house.

The main house is much larger than the side rooms.

There is a main hall in front, with several small rooms next to it, and the main house further inside.

As soon as I walked into the hall, I saw Qingfeng, Jiaren and Mingzhu playing cards around a round table.

This kind of playing cards is similar to the modern Pai Gow. I don’t know how to play and I didn’t have the heart to watch them play, so I walked straight into the inner room.

The three of them were not surprised to see me, but because of their status, they had to stand up and bow to me as a greeting.

The rest of the palace maids were also standing together in twos and threes, some chatting, some cleaning. They were much more leisurely than the servants outside.

The little palace maids just pretended to bow to me and then ignored me and went on with their business.

I stayed in the main house for a few days, so I didn't need them to lead the way. I just walked in directly.

There was only a little palace maid in the main room, dozing on a stool with her head nodding. There was no one guarding Madam Lu's bed.

I walked straight to Aunt Lu's bed. Aunt Lu, who had originally had her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes. Her cloudy eyes blinked for a long time before she recognized who I was.

Madam Lu smiled and said softly, "Little girl, you are here?"

Madam Lu had lost a lot of weight, her eye sockets were deeply sunken, and there was only a layer of skin left on her face, with her entire facial bones protruding. She looked like a skeleton wrapped in human skin, which was frightening to look at.

How could it become like this in just a few days? I quickly sat on a stool beside the bed and reached out to feel the pulse of Aunt Lu.

Her pulse was beating very slowly, showing signs of weakness. She was holding on and not dying, probably because she still had some wishes that had not been fulfilled.

Looking at her, I couldn't help but think of my grandmother, and tears welled up in my eyes.

I said sadly, "I'm sorry, a lot has happened recently and I haven't had time to come and see you. Didn't they take good care of you? Why are you so thin?"

Madam Lu said with difficulty: "I have endured for so many years, and I can finally be free. You should be happy for me."

My tears suddenly fell.

Aunt Lu looked at me sobbing and crying, and gently squeezed my hand and said, "Silly child, you and I have no relationship, so it's not worth it to shed tears for me. Besides, I'm not a good person. I killed the late emperor, and your majesty almost died at my hands. My hands are covered in blood, and I'm afraid you will go to hell and suffer torture after you die."

"Don't talk nonsense, you will definitely go to heaven and become a god." I said with a sob.

Madam Lu didn't say anything. After a long while, she slowly said, "I'm afraid I don't have this blessing."

After a while, Madam Lu continued, "Your Majesty didn't kill me for all these years, not because he remembered my kindness in breastfeeding him, but because he wanted me to suffer the pain of the poison and slowly die! Child, you don't know that wanting to die but being unable to do so is much more painful than living!"

I stopped sobbing and stared at Aunt Lu blankly. I didn't expect her to be so insightful.

I couldn't help but think of myself.

I may still be of some use to Zheng Xian now, but if I become useless in the future, he might torture me to death like this.

I gently held Aunt Lu's hand and asked, "Do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"

Ma Lu smiled, and her smile looked like a skull opening its mouth to reveal two rows of big white teeth, which was a bit scary.

Madam Lu said, "If my child hadn't died, my grandson would have been as old as you."

"Do you have children?" I asked in surprise.

Madam Lu rolled her eyes at me and said, "Silly child, how can I be a wet nurse when I have no children?"

"That's right!" I touched my head embarrassedly.

Madam Lu continued, "Child, you are blessed. You must live well."

At this moment, the little palace maid who was dozing on the stool suddenly stretched and opened her eyes. She jumped up in fright as if she had suddenly seen me, pointed at me and asked, "When did you come in?"

I glanced at her and said coldly, "Since I came in, your breathing has become unstable. You pretended to be asleep for a long time, and now you ask me when I came in!"

After hearing this, the little palace maid's face changed several times and she dared not say anything.

I said, "Go out now. You are not serving me well here anyway. I will call you if there is anything else."

The little maid was reluctant to go out and hesitated, which made me so angry that I yelled, "Get out!"

The little palace maid was so scared that she stumbled out.

Aunt Lu looked at me quietly. I said embarrassedly, "Did I scare you?"

Madam Lu shook her head slightly and said, "If you were a man, you would definitely become a powerful general in the future."

I said embarrassedly: "Don't laugh at me, I can't even get on a horse, and I want to be a general."

Madam Lu gently squeezed my hand again and said, "Behind the willow walls in the south of the city, the breeze blows naturally."

After Lu Ma Ma finished her incoherent words, she suddenly started to cough violently, and said with difficulty: "Good child, you, you must remember this sentence."

As Ma Lu was coughing, suddenly a large amount of blood spurted out, then her head tilted, and she died in front of me.

I held tightly onto Aunt Lu's skinny, chicken-claw-like hand and burst into tears.

In just a few days, three people died in front of me.

From the panic when Concubine Yu died, to the heartache when my grandmother died, to the sadness when Nanny Lu died, my emotions were out of control.

I cried loudly, the sadness in my heart could not be suppressed, like a faucet turned on, tears flowed down.
