   Chapter 414 Mother and Son

   Zhou Yuan and Imperial Physician Li are here to give acupuncture to Brother Jue.

   Brother Jue was obediently lying on the bed, pulling Lu Mingyu's sleeve with one hand, and looking at his mother eagerly.

  Lu Mingyu felt sour in his heart, and coaxed with a smile, "Mother is here, and I won't go anywhere. The envoy Zhou wants to give you an injection, and my mother has to move out of the way. Can you let go first?"

   Brother Jue then let go of his hand reluctantly.

  Lu Mingyu was standing beside the bed, watching the slender golden needles pierce into Brother Jue's body one by one. Seeing Brother Jue obediently crying without moving, let alone the feeling of distress.

   Sister Xuan also refused to leave, standing beside Lu Mingyu, whispering from time to time, "Brother, does it hurt?"

   Brother Jue replied in a low voice, "A little bit."

   Qiyun was both distressed and funny, and said to Lu Mingyu in a low voice, "I usually ask my maid, but Brother Jue never said it doesn't hurt."

   Today, I have my own mother, and I am especially willing to act like a spoiled child.

  Lu Mingyu felt more and more distressed besides being funny.

   Hearing Qiyun say it is one thing, and seeing it with his own eyes, only then did he know how much brother Jue suffered.

After the needle was applied, Lu Mingyu undressed Brother Jue and carried him into the bucket. Brother Jue used to be fleshy, but now he was so thin that he could feel his ribs. Sister Xuan and Brother Jue were the same at first, but now there are significant differences.

   After some tossing, it was almost noon.

  Lu Mingyu accompanied the children to lunch.

  Brother Jue had a very good appetite today, and ate a small bowl more than usual. There was a blush on his little face, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead.

  Lu Mingyu smiled and wiped the sweat beads for Brother Jue: "I have eaten a lot today, don't hold your stomach. Are you sleepy now, do you want to sleep for a while?"

   Brother Jue's body has not been cleaned of the residual poison, so he is easily tired and sleepy. He was really sleepy now, but he was reluctant to close his eyes to sleep, so he pulled Lu Mingyu's sleeve and whispered, "Mother, I'm not sleepy."

   He didn't dare to close his eyes to sleep. What if he fell asleep and his mother disappeared?

   Brother Jue's little thought was written on his face.

  Lu Mingyu said softly: "You can sleep at ease, mother is not going anywhere, just here to accompany you."

   Sister Xuan said loudly, "I'll accompany my brother too."

  Lu Mingyu laughed lightly, kissed Brother Jue, and then kissed Sister Xuan, then picked up Sister Xuan with one hand and placed her on the bed. The siblings fell asleep with their heads resting on their heads.

  Qiyun then said softly: "The slaves are here to guard, and the niangniang should go back to the bedroom and rest!"

  Lu Mingyu is able to stay, but the injury on his body is not healed!

  Lu Mingyu was reluctant to leave, and said softly, "Let someone move a narrow couch and I'll sleep here."

   Her left arm was injured, so she couldn't sleep on the same bed as the children, so as not to bump into each other. The compromise is to move a narrow couch. In this way, the children can see her without touching the wound.

  Qiyun couldn't beat her master, so she had to take the palace servants into a narrow couch into the house.

   This kind of narrow couch is usually used by the palace people to sleep at night. It is small and light.

  Lu Mingyu was lying on the debt couch. When she turned her head, she could see a pair of children sleeping sweetly, her heart overflowing with tenderness and satisfaction. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

  …

  The children woke up from a nap, and they were very happy to see their mother at first sight.

   Sister Xuan crawled out of the bed and lay on the edge of the narrow bed.

  Brother Jue also wanted to stay, but he had no energy and moved slowly. When he sat up, Lu Mingyu was already at the side of the bed: "Brother Kui, you can't get around on the bed yet, you're tired of lying down, just sit and play for a while."

   Brother Jue pulled Lu Mingyu's hand: "Mother accompany me."

   "Okay, mother is with you." Lu Mingyu smiled and sat on the edge of the bed.

   Sister Xuan used to be the most domineering, always dominating her own mother. Now I'm willing to let Brother Jue go, not making a fuss at all, just quietly moving over and leaning on my mother's side, I'm satisfied.

  Lu Mingyu brought some children's toys and played with the children for an afternoon.

  Queen Qiao came over in the evening and was relieved to see Lu Mingyu and a pair of children having a good time: "These days, Brother Jue has been sick and lethargic. Today I finally see Brother Jue's smiling face."

   Then, it was a little sour: "Before I came here every day, Brother Jue never laughed like this."

   It can be seen that no matter how good your grandmother is, she is not as good as her own mother.

  Lu Mingyu pursed her lips and smiled, opened her mouth to make Queen Qiao happy: "Brother Jue's favorite person is not his mother, but his grandmother."

   Brother Jue was still young, so he didn't cooperate at all, and immediately said, "I like my mother."

  Queen Joe: "..."

   Queen Qiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and sighed deliberately: "Yes, yes, grandma knows. In the future, grandma will come less often, lest Brother Jue be unhappy."

   Brother Jue grinned: "I like grandmother."

  Xuan said loudly, "I like my grandmother too."

   Queen Qiao's sour feeling was immediately healed, she walked forward quickly, hugged Sister Xuan, and kissed her hard: "Grandma likes both."

   Sister Xuan immediately put the chubby face over, coaxing Queen Qiao to laugh.

   Queen Qiao values ​​her grandson and loves her granddaughter very much. Generally speaking, it is within the acceptable range.

  …

  The sky quickly darkened.

  The nanny waited on a pair of children to bathe.

  Lu Mingyu finally got some free time and whispered to Queen Qiao.

   Queen Qiao's eyes flashed fiercely, and she said in a deep voice, "That **** of the Su family has lived long enough. Since you can stay and walk around, you will end her today!"

   Lu Mingyu's eyes flashed a chill, and nodded: "I'll go in a while. The mother will wait for my news!"

  Queen Qiao originally wanted to watch Concubine Su close her eyes, but seeing Lu Mingyu say so, she didn't insist: "Alright, I'm here to accompany the child."

   paused, then said, "What are you going to do with the fifth prince?"

   Poisoning was done by Concubine Su and had nothing to do with Li Chang.

  Lu Mingyu hated Li Chang, but did not plan to execute him together. The injustice has the first debt and the owner, Su Fei deserves to die, Li Chang has not yet reached the time of death.

"After tonight, let the fifth prince go out of the East Palace." Lu Mingyu said lightly: "Concubine Su deserves what she deserves, and it's not a pity to die. The fifth prince can think clearly. It's no wonder that Donggong ignores brotherhood."

   Queen Qiao realized instantly.

   This matter has to wait for Li Chang to make a big mistake himself, and then take action, so it is full of justice. After all, it is the East Palace, and there must be rules and regulations, and it must be submissive to the public.

   Queen Qiao said in a low voice, "You just know what you have in mind."

  Lu Mingyu got up and walked out.

  Qiyun followed behind her with a pot of wine.

   The sky was dark and cloudy. Suddenly, raindrops fell silently. The drizzle, mixed with coolness, and the autumn wind, brushed against my face.
