Song Wanqing closed her eyes and prayed silently.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Look, the puppy is moving, it's moving."
Song Wanqing opened her eyes suddenly and looked at the little guy on the table in surprise. She finally breathed a sigh of relief and cried with joy, "That's great, little guy, you are awesome!"
Not far away, the Queen Mother looked back at this scene, and her eyes felt slightly wet.
"Grandma Huang, even if the puppy wakes up now, it doesn't mean that Song Wanqing can save it," Song Zhiqiu whispered from the side, "Maybe it will soon..."
"Shut your mouth!" the Queen Mother scolded coldly.
Song Zhiqiu's face changed slightly, and he immediately cried and said, "Grandma Huang, I just think that even if my sister wants to gain the trust of Grandma Huang, she shouldn't hurt the puppy intentionally. This puppy is too pitiful."
"Prince Chu's Mansion, you don't know something," Aunt Xin said slowly, "This puppy was brought back by His Highness King Chen. You don't think that His Highness King Chen is going to kill the puppy, right?"
When she heard that Xiao Yun had brought it back, the Queen Mother immediately said coldly, "Yun'er is the most kind-hearted and would never hurt an innocent puppy."
She looked at Song Zhiqiu dissatisfied, "Stop your dirty thoughts, and go back, the Ai family doesn't want to see you today."
"Grandma Huang..." Song Zhiqiu gritted his teeth silently, "Grandma Huang, have a good rest. Zhiqiu will come see you tomorrow."
She watched the Queen Mother enter the main hall, then turned and left.
"Song Wanqing," Song Zhiqiu walked to the stone table and looked at the dying dog, "please pray that this dog will not die, otherwise, everything you have done today will still be in vain."
She knew what Song Wanqing had in mind, and a cruel sneer appeared on her lips: She would never let this puppy survive.
"As long as some people put away their vicious thoughts, this puppy will definitely live longer than you!" Song Wanqing looked at Song Zhiqiu provocatively.
"Humph! We'll see!" Song Zhiqiu left quickly.
Song Wanqing knew what Song Zhiqiu had planned. He stayed with the puppy all day long, and even let the puppy lie where he could see it while he was cooking the medicine.
At night, she slept on the porch, put the puppy not far away, and covered it with a quilt.
In the early morning, Nanny Xin suddenly ran out and said, "Miss Wanqing, wake up, wake up, the Queen Mother is sick again."
Song Wanqing got up in a daze, rubbed his eyes, and hurried to the Queen Mother's bedroom.
However, after she left, a boy suddenly appeared in the corridor. He looked at the shadow of the puppy from a distance, felt cruel, and ran over.
When he ran up to the puppy, he kicked the puppy hard as if he didn't see it.
But as soon as he kicked the puppy out, he felt something was wrong. Why was it so light?
"Who is it?" Nanny Zhang suddenly appeared and grabbed his arm, "If you want to kill this puppy, I will take you to see the Queen Mother now."
"Mama Zhang, let go. You misunderstood. I didn't see anything here. Let go." The boy struggled wildly.
Nanny Zhang did all the hard work in the kitchen, and her hands were very strong. She just grabbed people and went to the outside of the Queen Mother's bedroom.
"When I returned to the Queen Mother, I found a suspicious person in the corridor."
"I really misunderstood." As soon as he entered, the young man knelt down and begged for mercy, "Mama Zhang misunderstood. I really didn't know that there was a dog sleeping there. Please tell me, Queen Mother."
At this time, the puppy was actually held in Nanny Xin's arms, "Fortunately, I took it away, otherwise, it would have been kicked to death."
She said and glanced at Song Wanqing. Today, Song Wanqing told her and Nanny Zhang to keep an eye on the puppy.
"This slave has been wronged, wronged!" The boy kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
Song Wanqing twitched the corners of her lips, "It seems that some people can't even tolerate a dog."
The Queen Mother frowned. She naturally knew who did it, "Drag him down and beat him thirty times."
"This slave is wronged, this slave is wronged!" The boy's voice begging for mercy gradually faded away.
The Queen Mother turned to look at Nanny Xin, "Take it over to the Ai family and have a look."
"Yes." Nanny Xin carefully carried the puppy over. At this time, the puppy was breathing evenly and was obviously asleep.
A soft light appeared in the Queen Mother's eyes, "Has this dog been given a name?"
Song Wanqing lowered her head, "No, if the Queen Mother is willing, just give it a name. Maybe no one will dare to harm it."
The Queen Mother thought for a while and said, "Just call it a star, and we will keep it with the Ai family from now on."
"My little girl thanked the Queen Mother for Xingxing." Song Wanqing felt happy and quickly knelt down to thank her.
The Queen Mother looked at Song Wanqing with admiration, "It's worthy of your hard work. Don't worry, the Ai family will consider your method carefully."
This was the first time that the Queen Mother finally relaxed in front of Song Wanqing.
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Song Wanqing was very happy. As long as the puppy gradually gets better, the Queen Mother will definitely agree.
In the next few days, the Queen Mother's illnesses became more and more frequent, and Song Wanqing's acupuncture gradually failed to work, but the little star raised in the main hall became stronger and stronger day by day.
On this day, the Queen Mother looked at the little star who could stand up, and finally said, "Ask the emperor to come see me."
Emperor Qing came soon.
"The Ai family agrees to have an abdominal dissection." The Queen Mother spoke with difficulty. She didn't even have the strength to speak.
"Okay, my son will go make arrangements immediately." Emperor Qing's eyes turned red, "Mother, don't be afraid, you will be fine."
The Queen Mother spoke again, "Before the abdominal dissection, the Ai family has something to say."
Emperor Qing understood that the Queen Mother was preparing for the worst and was preparing to leave her last words.
"Mother, my son believes..."
"Go and make arrangements." The Queen Mother said eagerly.
"Yes." Emperor Qing stood up and immediately asked people to send messages to the palaces, asking them to come to Kunning Palace immediately.
"Emperor," the Queen Mother looked at the son in front of her, "there is only one thing for you from the Aijia. Yun'er has no mother at a young age. He has a simple mind. If the Aijia is gone, you must protect him."
"Mother, don't say such depressing words, you will be fine." Emperor Qing couldn't help but choked up.
"Promise to the Aijia."
"Don't worry, mother, my son will take good care of Yun'er and watch him get married and start a family."
"Yes." The queen mother closed her eyes and rested for a while.
Soon, the concubines, princes, and princesses from each palace came. King Chu and Princess Chu also came, but King Chen was not seen.
Emperor Qing frowned, "Where is King Chen?"
"Don't worry about him." The Queen Mother knew that Xiao Yun did not dare to appear at this time and must be hiding somewhere. This Xiao Yun was just a child, a child who was pampered by her.
Emperor Qing didn't say anything, but he obviously had some opinions about Xiao Yun.
The first one to come forward was the Queen. She had been eating fast and worshiping Buddha in Fengyi Palace and rarely appeared.
"I've met the Queen Mother!" She kneeled respectfully beside the bed.
The Queen Mother struggled to open her eyes and looked at the woman in front of her, "The Ai family knows that you have been unable to let go for so many years. You should go back. You can come and see the Ai family. The Ai family is already satisfied."
