   Chapter 370 Seriously Ill

   If it goes on like this, I'm afraid Concubine Meng won't be able to survive the eldest prince's return.

  The eldest concubine wiped her tears with a veil, and said in a low voice, "My concubine is sad, and my daughter-in-law understands that it is already like this, and the empress has to think about it. No matter what, His Royal Highness finally saved a life."

   What's the use of saving your life?

   I injured my leg, so I can't stand and walk, let alone carry a knife and mount a horse. What's the difference between a scumbag! In the future, even if the prince has three strengths and two weaknesses, the crown prince of the Wei Dynasty will not be able to be a waste person.

   Her half-life hard work and expectations were destroyed in one fell swoop.

   A mother's heart for her son, who can understand?

   Don't look at the first prince concubine crying, she is not half as good as herself in terms of sadness.

   Concubine Meng, who was lying on the bed, closed her eyes and did not want to look at her daughter-in-law again.

   The eldest princess stayed for a while and had to get up and retire. Princess Jing'an got up to send her elder sister-in-law off, and said softly, "The concubine became so ill, and her temper became more and more strange. Sister-in-law, don't take it to heart."

   The eldest princess sighed helplessly: "Family, what is there to care about. I will come to take care of illness in the future when I have free time."

   When the Empress Dowager Zhao fell ill, the Empress and Concubine took the lead, and the Prince and Concubine took turns to wait for the illness. When they arrived at Concubine Meng's place, there was only one Princess Jing'an who stayed beside the sickbed every day.

  The third prince made a military exploit, and Concubine Su in Yihua Palace raised her eyebrows.

   The eldest prince lost one of his legs, the Yanxi Palace was silent, and there was no one to visit.

  In the palace, it has always been the case.

  Princess Jing'an smiled bitterly: "The Yanxi Palace is deserted, and the Queen's Sister-in-law has more time to talk. Maybe the mother-in-law's illness will be better soon."

   Concubine Meng has been beautiful for several years, and now she is in such a situation, the gap in her heart is not a single star. The disease gets worse day by day, and most of it is heart disease.

  妯娌 whispered for a long time before saying goodbye to each other.

  …

   On the second day, the eldest princess entered the palace again to greet her.

   Queen Qiao was not mean, she said warmly: "You have been sick for so long, and you are finally healed. When you have free time, go to Yanxi Palace and persuade Concubine Meng."

Concubine Qin immediately picked up the conversation: "What the Empress said is true. Although the eldest prince was injured, his life was safe and he was alive and well. Concubine Meng, who was lying on the bed like this, was going to die or live, but turned the eldest prince upside down. fortune."

  The cotton has thorns, and the thorns hurt people's mouths.

   The person who is emotionally hurt is not the fourth prince. Standing aside and watching, I am not afraid to flash my tongue when I speak.

   The eldest princess gritted her teeth in her heart and said with her head lowered, "Thank you, Concubine Qin."

Concubine Su, who has been so proud of herself recently, pretended to sigh: "Princes are born and die on the battlefield, fighting with their heads on their heads. We can't do anything else in the palace, at least we should take good care of our bodies, lest our sons Concerned about."

  Bah!

   Relying on the appearance of the third prince, even Concubine Su became arrogant.

   In the past, Concubine Su had always been the one with the smiling face of Fu Xiao, so when was it her turn to show off her power?

   The eldest princess gritted her teeth again.

  Lu Mingyu looked impatiently at Concubine Su's virtuous character, and said lightly: "There are no generals who are always victorious on the battlefield. Let's keep three points! In case the third prince makes a mistake, I'm afraid that Concubine Su will not be as good as Concubine Meng."

Concubine Su is known for her courage and temper. In the past, she didn't say anything, but today she straightened her waist and looked at Lu Mingyu: "Isn't it a shame for the crown princess to say this? The third prince fought hard for Wei, When it comes to the Crown Princess, there are only a few words. If these words spread out, the reputation of the Princess Yu's virtuousness will be greatly damaged."

  Lu Mingyu's expression was indifferent, and there was a hint of coolness in his voice: "I walk upright and sit upright, and I'm not afraid of people making irresponsible remarks behind my back. It's Concubine Su, who accumulates virtue for the third prince, don't ruin his luck."

   Concubine Su: "..."

   Concubine Su's recent arrogance has long been unpleasant.

  Concubine Qin was the first to fall into the trap: "What the Crown Princess said makes sense. That day, the fourth prince led the troops to pacify the chaos and made great achievements. As a mother, I am happy in my heart, but I don't have the embarrassment to talk about it every day."

   Queen Qiao glanced at Concubine Su lightly: "I thought that Concubine Su had been aggrieved in the past, but now that the third prince has achieved military exploits, Concubine Su will straighten her waist and shake her prestige in front of everyone."

   Concubine Su couldn't laugh anymore. She endured the humiliation and stood up to make amends: "The Empress, please calm down. The concubine didn't mean to shake her prestige, she just wanted to be happy for the Third Prince. If there are any inadvertent words or actions, please forgive the Empress."

   Queen Qiao tapped a few words, "I won the battle, and I am happy. However, I haven't won a big victory yet. It's not too late to be happy until the day when the army returns to the DPRK."

   Concubine Su bowed her head.

Concubine Su calmed down, and Lu Mingyu's anger calmed down a little, and said to the eldest concubine: "Concubine Meng has been ill for a long time, and it is all heart disease. My sister-in-law went to Yanxi Palace to persuade Concubine Meng to cheer up and drink medicine on time every day. Otherwise, No matter how hard the imperial physicians try their best, they will not be able to save her."

   The First Prince replied softly.

   However, Concubine Meng's thoughts were too heavy, and the First Prince Concubine and Princess Jing'an took turns to persuade her, but they did not persuade her well.

  …

  The days go by like water, and it's a new year in a blink of an eye.

  In March of the eleventh year of Yongjia, Emperor Yongjia personally beheaded Yue Rong, the general of Chu, under the sword, which was considered to be revenge for the eldest prince.

When the news of    reached the palace, Queen Qiao frowned, and Lu Mingyu was relieved.

   If she remembered correctly, after this battle, the morale of the Chu state was completely wiped out, and after that, it was losing ground. This was also the most crucial victory of the Great Wei campaign against Yanchu.

   "This Yuerong killed better."

Lu Mingyu smiled and said to Queen Qiao: "Yue Rong is a famous general of Chu State. Before, the eldest prince suffered a defeat in his hands and suffered a leg injury. Now the father has personally killed Yue Rong, and this bad breath has brought out the morale of the Chu army. Hit hard. It's going to be ruined very soon."

   Queen Qiao felt at ease, and couldn't help but whisper: "Bengong is looking forward to the army returning to Beijing after winning the battle as soon as possible. As soon as Ajing has been gone for so long, Igong is thinking about it every day."

   Calculate the time, the army has been away from Beijing for more than a year.

   Queen Qiao misses her son, why doesn't Lu Mingyu miss her husband?

   It's just that she doesn't always talk about it like Queen Joe does.

  Lu Mingyu replied with a smile: "Don't be impatient. Although the Chu army is defeated, it will take time to capture the entire state of Chu and Yan. From my daughter-in-law's point of view, the army will return to Beijing at the end of this year."

Queen Qiao exhaled and said with a smile, "I can't help it, just be patient and wait!" After a pause, she instructed Cai Lan, "Go to Yanxi Palace and kill the emperor in a victorious battle. Tell Concubine Meng about Rong."

   I hope Concubine Meng can cheer up a little when she hears such good news.

   Concubine Meng was going to die, so she should wait for the army to return to Beijing before she died. Lest Emperor Yongjia take his anger on her.
