After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

The next day, Liu Yunxiang found Ruan Lingyu first and handed him the copper pipe Yan Mu gave her.

Ruan Lingyu looked at the copper pipe in his hand and his eyes settled, "The Fire Qilin was developed by the orphan of the former deposed prince. The fact that His Highness the Seventh Prince can get it means that he knows the whereabouts of this orphan."

Liu Yunxiang had never thought about this, but she didn't care about orphans either.

"You go back to Duke An Guo's Mansion and find a good time to blow up this fire unicorn."

Ruan Lingyu raised his eyebrows, "If I light this fire unicorn, I won't be able to return to Duke Anguo's mansion in the future, which means I've cut off my way of making a living."

"If you follow me from now on, I will definitely not treat you badly."

“Only when you have money in your own hands will you feel at ease.”

Liu Yunxiang agreed very much with this and immediately took out two banknotes and handed them to Ruan Lingyu, "Are you satisfied with the price?"

Ruan Lingyu took a look and nodded with satisfaction, "My boss is really generous, don't worry, just go home and wait for the sound."

After telling Ruan Lingyu, Liu Yunxiang hurried to the city gate. There was a carriage waiting in the east, but the carriage looked too ordinary and even a little shabby. It couldn't be the queen's carriage, right?

Just as she was about to look away, the queen actually poked her head out of the carriage and waved to her.

Liu Yunxiang twitched the corner of his mouth and walked towards the carriage. The driver was a young man, wearing a coarse cloth but with a strong body and a resolute face. At first glance, he was a practitioner.

Liu Yunxiang got into the carriage and saw that the inside of the carriage was as shabby as its appearance, and there was no place to sit. The queen pulled her over and sat down with her on the wooden board.

Then the carriage started running, making a creaking sound.

"This carriage may not look old, but it's comfortable to sit in..."

When he said this, he happened to run over a pit and the two of them were knocked up.

The Queen coughed dryly and said, "The Queen's travels are too big and I don't like it, so I always sneak around alone. It's convenient to go out in this inconspicuous carriage to do things."

"Miss."

"After leaving the palace, I will be Aunt Qiu."

Liu Yunxiang changed his mind, "Aunt Qiu, you haven't even sold the carriage in the palace, have you?"

So I can only take this dilapidated one.

"As you said, I was also in a hurry for money at that time!"

Liu Yunxiang rolled his eyes, that was true.

"But what are we doing out of town? What help do you want from me?"

"A little favor."

"Oh, if you want to say that, I think it's best not to do this, so as not to get yourself into trouble."

Aunt Qiu hugged her and said, "My goddaughter, my godmother asked you for this favor. You must help me."

Liu Yunxiang turned his head and saw Aunt Qiu's rare serious look, and pursed his lips, "Then you have to make it clear, otherwise I don't know how to help you."

Aunt Qiu looked at her quietly, as if she saw another person through her, but when she came back to her senses, she was left with only sadness and helplessness.

"I once had a daughter whose nickname was Wuyou and Qingqing." When talking about her daughter, Aunt Qiu's eyes were full of love and warmth. "When she was very young, she was like a meat dumpling. When she was in her arms, she was soft and warm. She grinned when she smiled, and saliva flowed down the corners of her mouth. Later, when she grew up, her almond eyes were particularly beautiful and always sparkling."

At this point, Aunt Qiu laughed out loud, but her eyes turned red as she smiled.

"She is so cute and beautiful, but she can't speak or walk. They all say she is a fool."

When Liu Yunxiang heard this, she couldn't help but cover her mouth. She didn't expect that the queen's daughter would...

"When she was one year old, her swallowing ability began to deteriorate. When she was two years old, she could only drink milk. She was thin and small. The imperial doctor originally concluded that she would not live to be two years old, but I didn't believe it, so I gave up everything. Taking care of her day by day, she finally reached the age of three. She could eat a little bit of food in addition to milk, and her condition was getting better and better... That day, I followed His Majesty the King of Chang'an to the camp in the suburbs of Beijing to bring Gently handed her over to the care of her grandmother. That day, I was always restless and rushed back to the palace early, but it was still too late."

Liu Yunxiang's heart tightened, and he probably guessed something.

"When I saw Qing Qing, her little body was already completely cold, and her grandmother was holding her as if she was stupid."

Aunt Qiu, who had always been strong, couldn't help but shed tears at this moment. Liu Yunxiang hugged her and let her lean against him. At this moment, Aunt Qiu was fragile and heart-wrenching.

"I lived in a state of confusion for a month, until Qing Qing's grandmother became seriously ill, and Your Majesty brought me to her. Her hair was all white and she was so thin that she was just skin and bones. She held my hand and kept apologizing, saying that she had killed Qing Qing. Qing Qing killed her granddaughter. It was then that I remembered to ask what happened at that time. It turned out that her grandmother was afraid that Qing Qing would not be full if she only drank milk, and she heard me say that Qing Qing could eat a little bit, so she fed Qing Qing I ate some rice porridge, but this one bite choked the child to death."

Liu Yunxiang sighed after hearing this. Qing Qing's grandmother, who is now the Queen Mother, just felt sorry for her granddaughter.

"I can't blame the old man, I can only endure the heartache and take care of her without taking off my clothes. Fortunately, she got through, but she has lived in Ning Yuan'an since then, without seeing anyone. When the emperor ascended the throne, he personally led all the officials to welcome her, and she She did not return to the palace. I also visited her many times, and she talked to me through a door at most. She did not become a monk, but she no longer had a heart for the world. She has been living in self-blame and regret for the rest of her life, suffering. Since the year before last, her brain has been unclear, she can't remember things, and she can't recognize people, so she has been looking for Qingqing. In order to comfort the old man, I asked a palace maid to pretend to be Qingqing and take her there to show her, but she But she said she was not her granddaughter and that I lied to her."

"The Queen Mother's health is getting worse and worse. I just thought that it would be nice if she could untie her heart knot and die with a peaceful eye."

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "The Queen Mother really loves Princess Wuyou, right?"

"Yes, I love her very much. She was in the palace at that time, and she had to come out of the palace to visit the palace every day to feel at ease."

Liu Yunxiang felt uncomfortable when he heard this, but then he thought about it, "So the favor you asked me to help you is to pretend to be Princess Wuyou?"

Aunt Qiu blinked her eyes that were still filled with tears, "You shouldn't refuse, right?"

"Uh……"

"Godmother knows you are a good boy!"

Liu Yunxiang was helpless, "Don't abduct me, I will help you, sincerely."

Aunt Qiu hugged Liu Yunxiang and said, "Yunxiang, my godmother also sincerely treats you as my goddaughter."

Liu Yunxiang thought that she had a mother, but her mother no longer recognized her. She doesn't complain or hate, but she still longs for such a family relationship, and doesn't want to have Aunt Qiu in a foreign country to make up for her shortcomings.

Ningyuan Temple is located on Ningshan Mountain, ten miles outside the city. Because it is deep in the mountains, the surrounding environment is very quiet. It was almost noon before they arrived in front of Ning Yuan'an Mountain Gate.

A bhikshuni led them inside, around the main hall, and to the Zen room at the back.

As soon as she reached the door of the main room, the door opened from the inside. An old woman wearing a brown robe and with long hair came out. When she saw Liu Yunxiang, she stared at her for a long time, then suddenly her face lit up and she stepped forward. He grabbed her hand.

"Qing Qing, grandma's tenderness, you are here to see grandma!"
