After my rebirth, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has been so kind to me that I have no way to repay her..."

Fangyi had just opened her mouth with tears of gratitude when Lu Qingchen personally helped her up.

"Why does Concubine Shu have to say such polite words? I only have this one brother. If for no other reason, even for the sake of the prosperity of the Lu family's bloodline, I hope that Concubine Shu can personally take care of my second brother and little sister and let them grow up safely."

As he said this, he glanced at Fu Guiyun with a smile on his face and said, "Besides, I also hope that the Concubine Dowager can stay in the palace and spend more time with my mother."

Fangyi was not willing to tell them the truth about the pain in her heart.

She did not regret not being able to read the late emperor's last words in public, but as the late emperor's concubine, she had killed her master, which was ultimately a sin that was difficult for her to atone for.

"Your Majesty and the Queen Mother, please grant me your blessing."

Fangyi knocked her head heavily on the ground and pleaded without hesitation.

Her obsession was so deep that Fu Guiyun immediately became alert.

Lu Linchu's sudden death had always been beyond her expectations. Although she had arranged everything to make him angry, she did not expect him to die so easily.

The various signs shown by Fangyi allowed Fu Guiyun to roughly guess something.

It seems that this girl has a deep hatred for Lu Linchu, and she did something big without showing any emotion.

But no matter what, she cannot be asked to leave the palace at this time.

After all, raising a child for someone else is not an easy thing.

"Shu Taifei, I don't want to ask why you want to leave the palace, but I have something to say in advance. If you really want to go to that temple, then your children will have to go with you."

Glancing at her with deep eyes, Fu Guiyun said in a deep voice: "You have to think it through. As a mother, you should always put your children first."

Fangyi didn't want to let her and the emperor down, so she had to agree.

Fu Guiyun was worried about keeping her and the two children away from home, so he said, "Go back and pack up, and come back to Yundu with me in a few days. Wuyou is a child who has some affinity with me, and he is the emperor's only sibling, so I will confer him the title of Prince of Fu, and set up a residence in Yundu, and you can take care of him personally."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Fangyi was deeply moved and thanked him, then led her servants back to her palace.

Appeasing Fangyi undoubtedly solved a major issue that was hanging on Fu Guiyun's mind.

After the end of the year, the capital of Daning State was officially moved to Yundu.

In Xindu, she personally presided over the marriages of Fu Sinian and Fu Yan, and later took care of Qinglu's marriage. After finishing several weddings, it was the end of the year. Ye An brought news that Lu Linzhi was still in a coma, which made her worried.

As the New Year was coming to an end, he was so anxious that he fell seriously ill and was bedridden.

Lu Qingchen seemed to have sensed her anxiety, and every day after court he would come to Kunning Palace to accompany her to take medicine and personally serve her meals.

The mother and son tacitly agreed not to mention the affairs of Liyang City, but Lu Qingchen still secretly sent people to find a lot of tonics and send them to Liyang.

Seeing his mother becoming more and more haggard day by day, he became more and more upset. He hoped that his fourth uncle would wake up soon, but he was also afraid that he would wake up suddenly.

Because he knew very well that once his fourth uncle woke up, his mother would rush to his side regardless of everything, and he would no longer have her company.

Just seeing her facing him absent-mindedly all day long, Lu Qingchen felt particularly uncomfortable.

The mother and son remained in a stalemate for five years, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for Lu Qingchen to take power.

Fu Ping and Ye Zhicheng retired and returned to their hometowns one after another, and a lot of things happened in Beijing during these five years.

Caidie and Youdian died of illness one after another. Fangyi was so heartbroken because Prince Fu was infected with malaria and died young after arriving in Beijing that she fell ill and died with him.

Old friends have passed away one by one, and only Shu Yan, Cui Luo and Cheng Kui are left by Fu Guiyun's side.

Worried that his mother would feel lonely in the palace, Lu Qingchen brought Fu Yan's eldest daughter, Fu Nanyi, to the palace and spent the whole day playing with her.

Fangyi's daughter, Princess Wuyou, has always been a naughty girl, and now with the addition of the eccentric Fu Nanyi, the palace has indeed become much more lively than before, but Fu Guiyun just can't feel lively at all.

She always felt like she had something pressing on her mind, making her feel suffocated all day long.

She has never liked to owe favors to others. She has spent more than ten years helping the Lu family to unify the country in troubled times and cultivating a virtuous and famous king for Daning. Now that the world is peaceful and the seas are calm and the rivers are clear, she has lived up to the trust of her father-in-law and mother-in-law.

But she could not let Lu Linzhi down in this life because of his love for her in two lifetimes.

After discussing some things with Cheng Kui, that evening, she led Fu Nanyi to the gate of the cold palace without realizing it.

Hearing the faint sounds of crying and cursing coming from inside, she suddenly remembered that there was an old person imprisoned inside.

"Aunt Empress Dowager, I heard from my brother the Emperor that the person inside is very annoying. Why do you keep her?" Fu Nanyi asked curiously.

"It's because I hate it so much that I want to keep it."

Fu Guiyun smiled at her and said, "It can help relieve boredom when you are bored."

After staring inside for a long time, she suddenly ordered, "Nan Yi, Auntie will go in and talk to that annoying person. You go back to the palace first."

After saying that, he signaled to Shu Yan, "Take the young lady back."

Fu Nanyi didn't know why, but he suddenly felt reluctant: "Aunt, you must come back early. The emperor and I are waiting for you to come back and have dinner together."

"it is good."

Fu Guiyun slowly pushed open the courtyard door covered with fallen leaves, walked in step by step, and disappeared soon.

The cold palace had been abandoned for many years and had fallen into disrepair. It was in a dilapidated state and it was frightening to look at.

Fu Nanyi looked at Shu Yan with some concern: "Is it really okay for the Queen Mother to go in alone?"

"Don't worry, Miss."

Shuyan signaled to the two maids behind her to help her leave quickly.

As soon as the group returned to the gate of Kunning Palace, they saw thick smoke billowing in the distance, which was the direction of the cold palace.

"It seems like there's a fire over there?" Fu Nanyi shouted in horror.

"is it?"

Shu Yan took a closer look and said, "It seems to be true."

"Send someone to put out the fire quickly. I'm going to look for my brother the emperor."

Fu Nanyiyi was so frightened that his face turned pale and he immediately ran towards the direction of the Yangxin Palace.

Looking at the eldest lady walking away, Shuyan smiled knowingly and left in a hurry.

When Lu Qingchen learned that the cold palace was on fire, he led a group of people and hurriedly rushed there, but was stopped by Lu Qingyu halfway.

Seeing her leading a group of palace servants to deliberately block his way, Lu Qingchen's face suddenly darkened: "Yongning, what do you want to do? Nan Yi said that the cold palace is on fire, and my mother is still there. I have to rush over immediately."

"My sister has already sent someone."

Lu Qingyu said: "Even if my brother rushes over now, it will be useless."

"What is the Grand Princess talking about?"

Fu Nanyi was particularly dissatisfied when he heard this: "Although my aunt is not your biological mother, she has treated the Grand Princess well over the years. How can you be so indifferent?"

No matter how much she scolded, Lu Qingyu remained indifferent and stood in the middle of the road.

Lu Qingchen seemed to have noticed something, and immediately dismissed everyone thoughtfully.

Seeing this, Lu Qingyu asked the servants behind him to retreat.

"Yongning, did you do this on purpose?" Lu Qingchen rolled his eyes at her in annoyance.

"I would like to ask what exactly your intention is, brother?"

Lu Qingyu questioned: "You knew what our mother wanted, so why did you selfishly force her to stay in the palace?"

"What the hell are you talking about?"

Lu Qingchen angrily rebuked: "She is the queen mother of Daning, so she must stay in the palace."

"But she's just a woman."

Lu Qingyu slowly approached him, her voice suddenly trembling: "Brother, have you forgotten that she has been protecting us all this time? She has devoted herself to the Lu family without any selfish motives, and has dedicated half of her life to the Lu family and the country of Daning. But father has never had mother in his heart. How can you bear to let her continue to stay in this deep palace and waste her time in vain?"

Lu Qingchen took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.

He also knew that his mother had lived a very hard life.

That was why he wanted to keep his mother by his side, serve her well, and never let her suffer any injustice.

"Brother, I often wonder, if we hadn't met this woman in the beginning, what would have been our ending?"

Lu Qingyu looked gloomy, and continued to talk to himself: "Will we let Yunling be forced to death?"

"She has no blood relationship with us at all. Our grandparents hated us so much. She could have just abandoned us, but she always treated us as her own flesh and blood. She even chose to protect my brother and me without hesitation in front of our fourth uncle."

"Sometimes I feel like my mother is a silly woman. I can't even figure out what she wants. I don't think she wants to be imprisoned in this deep palace by my brother."

Lu Qingchen felt ashamed after hearing this. He looked at the place where the fire was burning in silence for a long time, then turned away in a daze.

After walking a few steps back, he suddenly stopped, turned around, knelt down and kowtowed several times in the direction of the cold palace, and only said silently in his heart: "Your son respectfully sends your mother off."

Afterwards, he resolutely returned to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

Lu Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief. When he arrived at the cold palace, there were very few people coming to rescue her. Many palace people were shouting anxiously, "The queen mother is still inside. Why haven't the people in the palace arrived yet?"

Someone else explained: "This cold palace is remote and desolate. It's hard for anyone to get here in a short time."

Lu Qingyu stood quietly among the crowd without saying a word, watching the cold palace burn to ashes.

As the sky gradually brightened, the palace servants found several charred bodies in the ashes. They knelt on the ground and cried loudly in agony: "The Queen Mother has passed away."

Lu Qingyu knelt down and murmured silently in her heart: "Mother, Yu'er only hopes that you can live as you wish for the rest of your life."

……

A mysterious black carriage drove out of the palace and after leaving the city, it headed south along a narrow path.

After rushing on the road for more than ten days, changing to water transportation and then traveling on the branching waterways for another half a month, we finally docked in a warm and pleasant town.

It is the spring season of March, and the beauty of the Jiangnan water town is fully displayed in Huayi City.

A dark blue carriage with a canopy that had been waiting on the shore brought several women wearing veiled hats into the carriage. Together with a man in simple clothes, they whipped the horses and headed towards the outskirts of the city.

I don't know how long it took, but the carriage suddenly stopped in front of a quiet villa.

"Master, here we are."

The man got off the carriage first and led the three women out one by one.

Looking around at this paradise on earth, the leading woman spoke first: "Cui Luo, Shu Yan, do you really have no regrets following me here?"

Shu Yan's eyes were full of disgust: "Master, you have been asking all this time. I am tired of hearing you even if you don't mind."

Fu Guiyun smiled and hurriedly told Cheng Kui, "Little Kui, take us in quickly."

Cheng Kui responded, walked up and knocked on the gate, and soon someone opened the door.

When Rong An saw the person coming, he turned pale with fear. He was about to kneel down and kowtow, but Fu Guiyun immediately raised his hand to stop him: "No need to be polite. I am now the lord of the Six Cities."

She asked Rong An to settle a few people, and she followed Cheng Kui to Lu Linzhi's dormitory.

It has been many years since I last saw him. Although he is still in a coma, he looks extremely well. His face does not look old at all, and he has a gentle appearance like jade. His complexion contrasts with the beautiful scenery outside the window, making him look like a character in a painting.

"Divine Doctor Xue said that the environment of Huayi City is good for health, so City Lord Ye secretly sent people here. Divine Doctor Xue prepared a lot of prescriptions before he left, and told City Lord Ye that he only needed to follow his instructions and give the Fourth Young Master a medicinal bath every day." Cheng Kui said in detail.

"I see, you go down."

After sending Cheng Kui away, Fu Guiyun sat down beside the bed and quietly stared at the peaceful face. Thinking that he would finally be able to stay and take good care of him in the future, he felt warm in his heart.

"Lu Linzhi, isn't it time for you to wake up? If we continue to sleep, we will get old."

Holding his broad palm, Fu Guiyun shook it gently.

She could still feel the faint warmth emanating from his body, and could even see his throat moving slightly from time to time. She firmly believed that this man would open his eyes again.

"Lu Linzhi, you probably don't know yet, I'm the queen mother again."

"I don't know whether it's luck or misfortune in life. Some people can't get it in their entire life, but I didn't seem to have to put in much effort along the way."

"Whether it's fortunate or unfortunate, I've always been grateful that I've been moving forward all these years, never giving up, creating all the conditions to hold the initiative, and every time an opportunity comes, I'm qualified to make choices instead of being chosen."

Staring at him quietly, Fu Guiyun gently pressed her cheek against his palm and smiled slightly: "Just like this time, I am no longer the queen mother in the deep palace, and you are no longer a son of the Lu family. Let's live in peace together and be an unknown rich man in Huayi City."
