When he finally finished dealing with Lin Xue and the pile of affairs piled up in front of him, the sun was almost setting.

Lin Xuehe, who was too capable, refused the invitation to stay for dinner, and left in a hurry wrapped in a large package of ledgers and files.

Lou Qingyan poured a cup of tea and suppressed the anger in her throat.

Suddenly, there was a knocking sound on the window.

Lou Qingyan knew it was eleven by hearing the voice.

"come in."

Eleven turned over and came in: "Your Majesty is looking for you."

Lou Qingyan seemed to realize something suddenly: "Did you wait outside for a long time?"

"Yes." Eleven replied, "Your Majesty will send me a message in the afternoon."

Lou Qingyan said: "Didn't he wait for a long time?"

Eleven shook his head: "It's not today, His Majesty told you to enter the palace to have an audience before the court meeting tomorrow. There is something important."

Lou Qingyan was startled.

Lu Yu had never asked him to prepare for the trip in advance before. Could it be that some troubles occurred?

The next day, Lou Qingyan entered the palace in a hurry.

To his surprise, Lu Yu was not as depressed as he expected, on the contrary, he was very calm.

As soon as Lou Qingyan entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he asked suspiciously: "What's wrong?"

Lu Yu said flatly, "After today's court meeting, I'm going to visit the imperial tomb."

"You want to move your mother's grave out?" Lou Qingyan suddenly understood, "Have you chosen the address yet?"

Lu Yu nodded: "I have chosen, her hometown."

Yubi's hometown is not far from the capital, and she can go back and forth overnight.

Lou Qingyan frowned and asked: "So careless, don't you hold a ceremony for her?"

Lu Yu said: "The preparations are ready. Although this time the grave is moved in a low-key manner, I will not treat my mother and concubine badly. And I invite you to come. You are the best wizard in Xia Kingdom, and I will do it for her. I believe she can feel at ease. Moreover, she once asked you to ask you to give her an answer so that she can make her wish."

Lou Qingyan nodded.

Lu Yu got up and approached him.

Only then did Lou Qingyan realize that the blue under Lu Yu's eyes was very dark.

"Your Majesty... have you had a good rest during this time?"

"Yes. After all, I know what happened back then, and my mood is complicated." Lu Yu said frankly, "I have thought about Wang's words for a long time."

Lou Qingyan didn't say anything.

He had seen Yubi's memory.They were originally in love, but she loved the late emperor until she died, but she thought that the late emperor had changed his mind.

If the first emperor had really changed his mind, they might still be able to resent or criticize them justifiably from the perspective of concubines.

However, under the influence of drugs, the first emperor entered a state of rage, mental instability, and the other side of human nature was aroused.Extreme selfishness, greed and demanding desire kidnapped him, made his darkness overwhelm love, made him listen to slander and abandon his concubine, and made him spend his whole life in the torment of contradictions, regret and self-justification.

Lu Yu and Lou Qingyan didn't know whether it was caused by long-term consumption of fishy fern, or because the original dark side of the late emperor was enough to overwhelm the feelings, or that kind of vow of eternal love was just a short-lived impulse.

This contradictory question haunted Lu Yu's mind for a long time.

Lu Yu explained many matters to Lou Qingyan.Lou Qingyan has an auxiliary panel and knows all these things well, so he quickly mastered the process.At the same time, he can also help Lu Yusheng's mother to be freed from the repression and curse of the former emperor.

When Lu Yu explained the matter, he was calm and calm throughout the whole process, which is rare.When the two of them were alone, Lu Yu would always take advantage of him by taking various opportunities, either acting like a baby or being domineering.But Lu Yu's seriousness today made Lou Qingyan at a loss.

After explaining everything, Lou Qingyan left.Before going out, he glanced at Lu Yu, his face was very calm.

It might be better if he showed his emotions, thinking alone like this, but he can only hold everything in his heart.

After the court meeting, Lu Yu suddenly announced that he would move the grave of his biological mother again and leave immediately.

Before everyone could react, Lu Yu went straight to the imperial mausoleum on the outskirts of the city with the ministers and entourage that he had explained in advance.

Although the whole process is simple and plain, it is still very cumbersome.Everything was carried out according to the Queen Mother's specifications, and when everything was completed, most of the sun had already sunk below the horizon.

Lu Yu stood in front of the grave, speechless for a long time, after a while, he pushed back all his followers and courtiers, and then stood side by side with Lou Qingyan in front of the grave.

"The reason why I act so low-key is because she has been trapped too tired these years. Tired of the royal system, tired of life that is powerless to change the status quo." Lu Yu narrowed his eyes and said softly, "To her As far as she is concerned, those formal things can't fill the wounds, but will upset her."

Lou Qingyan nodded: "So, these days, you are preparing to move her out as soon as possible. Moreover, you chose her hometown because you want to bring her back to the original place."

The first place is also the most free place.

Lu Yu suddenly remembered something, turned to him and asked, "Where are the beads from before?"

Lou Qingyan took out a small bag from the skirt of his clothes, took out the neatly packed Buddhist beads, and put them on his wrist.

Lu Yu said: "It was put on her wrist by my grandmother when she entered the palace."

Lou Qingyan's hands froze when arranging the beads.

"Although I was still young when she was killed. This string of Buddhist beads was placed in the innermost part of her belongings. Presumably, it was intended to be given to my wife in the future."

"Wait, are you saying it's okay here? Is it okay to just leave it to me?"

Lu Yu solemnly took Lou Qingyan's hand.

Lou Qingyan took a peek at the tombstone standing on the ground, and couldn't help but feel a chill on the back of his neck, as if he was worried that the dead Queen Mother would come out of it and grab his neck and shout, "Why did you harm my son?"

Lu Yu didn't care about his hand that was trying to escape, and said seriously: "I can't think of giving this bracelet to anyone other than you."

As he said that, he turned his head to look at the tombstone: "Concubine Mother, I have already conferred the title for you, and after that, you will be my Empress Mother."

"Mother, this is the person I have identified."

Lou Qingyan's eyes widened slightly.

The afterglow of the setting sun is golden orange, but there is a purple shadow on the horizon, dyeing the clouds half golden and half blue.

The slanting sunlight fell on the two of them, stretching their shadows extremely long and obliquely reflecting on the ground.The tombstone was also stretched out a shadow.In the empty present, the three shadows are like three people standing opposite each other, looking at each other silently.

Lu Yu continued: "Actually, I have already understood that there is no need to think about whether the late emperor treated my mother and me like this because of the medicine or because of my own reasons."

"Why?"

Lu Yu turned his head and stared at the words on the tombstone: "Because if you really love someone, even if you take that kind of medicine, you can't indulge in hurting him. The first emperor would control him only because his heart already There is a selfish seed, in order to pursue the so-called 'longevity', seek immortality and medicine, and even love can give up."

"What he said in the early years were just lies. The only one he loves is himself."

"The sense of unreality and confusion brought about by the drug is just an excuse for him to excuse himself."

"If you really love someone, you will not cherish the person in front of you and regret it afterwards. If this is the case, it can only mean that he does not love enough."

"The feeling in the second half of his life is not called love, but self-moving and self-salvation."

The mystery that had plagued Lu Yu for the past few days was resolved in an instant.

Lou Qingyan seemed to be hallucinating.The halo on the tombstone seemed to vibrate, as if his mother was listening.If she had human form now, she might be crying.

Lu Yu's eyes drooped, like the child at his mother's knee back then: "Mother, you love him so much, but he betrays you so much. Whether you blame him or not, I can't intervene, but don't treat him like that in the second half of his life." The hypocritical feelings that are useless are used as torture|tools to torture oneself."

Lou Qingyan really saw the halo circulating on the tombstone.

He is a witch, so he is extremely sensitive to this kind of fluctuation, but other people may not be able to see this halo.Lou Qingyan turned her head, only to find that Lu Yu laughed out loud, as if she had received a response from her mother.

Lu Yu took his hand, pulled him, and took him to a place one step away from the tombstone. He held his hand and folded his hands on the tombstone, like a pair of newlyweds receiving blessings from their elders.

Both of their immediate elders are no longer alive.The second uncle in the Xuanyuan Sect may be considered half an elder, but he is not their closest parent.The souls lingering in the world before their eyes may be Lu Yu's closest relatives.

Lu Yu said softly, "I will never become like him."

An indescribable heat surged up in Lou Qingyan's chest.

He suddenly withdrew his hand back.

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong?"

"No, the elder is above me, I can't be false." Lou Qingyan said seriously, he turned his head to the tombstone, "Queen Mother, the purpose of my approaching him is for the throne of the Lu family. I don't want to deceive the deceased here, so , don’t take what he did to heart, I will sort it out with him.”

Without raising his eyelids, Lu Yu said flatly, "Queen mother, don't worry, I won't let him succeed. Every day he doesn't succeed, he will stay by my side. In this way, the two of us will never be separated. Don't worry, I will be happy."

Lou Qingyan choked on his words: "Are you fishing?"

"That's good." Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, "The queen mother can rest assured. I love someone deeply. Even if he doesn't love me, he will still be by my side because of his own purpose."

The "even if you don't love me" in his words is like a sharp thorn, piercing directly into Lou Qingyan's heart, and a stimulating current flows from his feet to the top of his head, making his mind buzz.

"No..." His voice stopped abruptly.

Lu Yu raised the corner of his mouth and looked at him with a smile: "Nothing?"

Lou Qingyan: "..."

In the silence, an unusual gust of wind suddenly blew away their hair.

The long hair left by Lou Qingyan's temples was intertwined with Lu Yu's.

The gust of wind didn't seem to stop until it tied the two strands of hair together tightly before disappearing safely.

Lou Qingyan: "..."

Sure enough, mothers always spoil their children.

If the concubine Yu hadn't died young, she might have spoiled Lu Yu so much.

Lu Yu smiled and said to the tombstone, "Thank you, mother, for your success."

He put his hands on the cold tombstone, as if he could touch his mother's hands that were no longer young: "Mother, I will not become a man like the late emperor, nor will I be like you, unable to change my own destiny."

This promise is too sincere.

In an instant, a mental wave with strong emotions spread from the tombstone to the surroundings!

This kind of mental fluctuation is not strong.When she was in the main hall of the imperial mausoleum, she borrowed the feng shui and dragon energy from the imperial mausoleum, so she was able to forcibly interfere with Lou Qingyan's mental body.But now, this kind of mental fluctuation is mild and long-lasting, as if there are gentle words to say to them.

Lu Yu accepted the mental fluctuations.

He closed his eyes, as if talking to his mother.After a few breaths, he opened his eyes and said with a smile: "Understood, don't worry, Empress."

However, this mental fluctuation still did not disappear, as if Lou Qingyan had to accept it.

"You also have something to say to me?" Lou Qingyan was a little surprised, but still let go of her mental body.

A series of messages flooded into his mind, including the advice of the elders, the scrutiny and joy of seeing his wife, gratitude, and the earnestness to persuade Lou Qingyan.

Lou Qingyan smiled wryly.

Sure enough, it was Lu Yu's own mother.

Suddenly, a scroll unfolded in front of him.

Lou Qingyan stared at the scroll in surprise: "This...is this Lu Yu's childhood?"

He knew that with the advent of photography technology in modern times, some parents would keep images of their children when they were young, and show them to their children's other half when they got married.Most of these images record the embarrassing things when they were young. When sharing, the other half can share the happiness of their parents without any scruples.

Unexpectedly, the ancient people in this world also had this hobby.

Lou Qingyan said "Don't think too much about the Queen Mother, the relationship between us is not what he said", but he glanced at the picture scroll honestly.

With an empty mental weight, it seemed that a non-existent hand appeared and tapped lightly on his head, as if to say "Don't talk nonsense, you have to stay with us Lu Yu".

Lou Qingyan: "..."

He didn't make any more excuses, turned his head to look at the scroll, and looked at it openly.

The concubine Yu was killed when Lu Yu was three years old. In her memory, Lu Yu looked from birth to three years old.

Lu Yu was very beautiful when he was a child.White and round face, big and bright eyes, pink and tender nose, excellent embryo.

For some reason, Lou Qingyan was extremely involved.

The people on the picture scroll can move, and Xiao Lu Yu's babbling voice is also very cute.

Suddenly, the scene turned to the under-year-old Xiao Luyu crying.

Mother picked him up and said, "Oh, it's time to change the diaper."

Lou Qingyan: "???"

He seemed to see Yubi standing behind him with a triumphant smile on his face.She seemed to want to show Lou Qingyan the embarrassment of little Lu Yu back then.

What a real mother.

No, this cannot be seen.Lou Qingyan don't start.

For some reason, he glanced at the picture scroll out of the corner of his eye.

Then I saw the scene where Riku pre-changed the diaper.

In the empty sea of ​​consciousness, he couldn't help but speak.

"Tsk."
