After changing his clothes, Lu Qingtang ate something casually and then went to find Luo Xue and Aunt Zhang's mother and daughter. The two of them have moved to a separate yard so that Aunt Zhang can recuperate.
Yesterday Luoxue heard that she was missing, so she came over to help take care of the child. She was so busy taking care of Aunt Zhang that she felt dizzy. Lu Qingtang was about to leave. Before leaving, she prepared some sufficient medicinal materials for Aunt Zhang, and also thanked Luoxue for what happened yesterday.
As soon as she arrived at Luoxue's new yard, she saw Luoxue running out in a hurry, and she came up to him with a smile on her face.
But before and after, Luoxue's face was full of surprise again, and then her eyes turned red. She choked and said, "Princess, why are you like this? Does it hurt?"
Lu Qingtang shook his head and smiled at her, "It's nothing to worry about. They are just some flesh wounds. They will be fine in a few days."
She paused and then asked, "What were you going to do in a hurry just now?"
Luoxue immediately smiled and took Lu Qingtang's arm, "I want to find you. I went there twice in the morning and both said you were asleep. By the way, I have one more thing to ask the princess, but..."
Luoxue was hesitant. She frowned and twirled her clothes with her fingers, as if she had something to hide.
Lu Qingtang was puzzled, "Just say what you have to say."
Luo Xue Yinya bit her pink lips gently and said cautiously, "My mother insisted on asking me to ask you about your birthday. I didn't think it was good, so she got angry and insisted on me asking..."
Her voice became smaller and smaller, and while she was talking, she looked at Lu Qingtang's expression, and then continued: "Princess, I know this is a bit excessive, but please don't worry, we will not use your birth date for witchcraft. , there are also things like stabbing people, please believe me."
Lu Qingtang shook her head helplessly, and she smiled, "I don't think it's a big deal. It's just a birthday or something. Listen, I was born on June 28th, the third year of Qingyuan. Even if you want to do something I’m not afraid of witchcraft either, I don’t believe in it at all.”
Luoxue smiled sheepishly. The two chatted for a while. Lu Qingtang handed her the medicine he brought and said goodbye and went back.
After Lu Qingtang left, Luoxue returned to the house and saw Aunt Zhang awake.
She helped Aunt Zhang up, put a soft pillow on her lower back, and poured her another cup of tea.
Aunt Zhang's face is still a little pale, and her eyes still have a tired look of illness, but she is much better than her condition some time ago. She reached out to take the tea cup and asked, "Xue'er, have you visited Princess Chen? How is the princess?"
Only then did Luoxue remember what had just happened, so she said to Aunt Zhang, "I almost forgot, the princess has already told me her birth date. She said she was born on June 28th, the third year of Qingyuan."
Aunt Zhang couldn't help but let out an "ah" sound, and the cup in her hand immediately fell to the ground.
With a "scratching" sound, the cup broke and the tea spilled on the floor.
Luoxue was startled and subconsciously asked Aunt Zhang if she had been burned. Then she went out to find a broom to sweep up the debris.
Aunt Zhang sat on the bed in a daze, her pale face drained of color.
Regardless of her weak body, she stood up, put on her shoes and went to drag Luoxue, telling her to invite Lu Qingtang over again. Luoxue didn't know what happened to her. She wanted to say wait, but Aunt Zhang couldn't stop breathing. She was so frightened that she quickly dropped the broom and went to find Lu Qingtang.
But Lu Qingtang had already got on the carriage and left the Zhennan Palace, leaving Luo Xue in vain.
She hurried back to tell her mother that Lu Qingtang had left, but Aunt Zhang seemed to have lost her soul and was uneasy all day long, which made Luoxue feel strange.
In the evening, after dinner, Aunt Zhang went to bed early. Luoxue wanted to ask something but was afraid of tiring her, so she had to turn off the lights and go back to the house to sleep.
Aunt Zhang was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, but couldn't sleep well.
She has now basically concluded that Lu Qingtang is the biological daughter of Lady Rou and King Zhennan.
At first, the first time she saw Lu Qingtang, she felt that she missed Lady Rou. She thought it was a fantasy she had when she was dying. Later, she was taken back to Zhennan Palace, and after Lu Qingtang's treatment, she finally became sober.
When she saw Lu Qingtang again, she didn't think it was an illusion, it was all real. But she thought it was just that the two of them looked alike. This was not the case in the world. And if you look carefully, there are actually some differences.
Later, the news that Lu Qingtang and Ji Wenzhan were born from the same mother spread throughout the Zhennan Palace. Aunt Zhang was surprised. She did not expect such a clever thing to happen in the world.
But gradually, she realized that things were not that simple.
The morning Lady Rou ran away, she covered her mouth and vomited. She seemed to be pregnant. In addition, her menstrual period had not come. As Lady Rou's personal maid, she naturally had to ask. But Lady Rou shook her head shyly and asked her not to tell King Zhennan, saying she wanted to give him a surprise.
Later at night, Madam Rou disappeared without a trace, without even a single sign. At that time, because she was not sure whether Lady Rou was really pregnant, she did not tell King Zhennan.
Ji Wenzhan is twenty-three years old this year, and Lu Qingtang is twenty. If you do a little calculation of her and Ji Wenzhan's ages, you can see the problem.
Lu Qingtang said that she was born on June 28th, and the date when Madam Rou disappeared was November 20th. Therefore, Lu Qingtang was born to Madam Rou, and she and Ji Wenzhan were siblings from the same father and mother.
However, she wanted to check with Lu Qingtang, but she had already left. What should she do?
…
Three days later, Aunt Zhang felt that her health was much better, so she kicked Luoxue out and insisted that she find Lu Qingtang.
She was in poor health and couldn't go find him in person, so she had to let Luo Xue pass the message on her behalf, but she couldn't be too full of words. He just said that it was a big deal and he had to tell Lu Qingtang face to face.
Luoxue was greatly wronged. She didn't know why her mother had gone crazy recently. She thought that Princess Chen was a vegetable seller on the street and could see her whenever she wanted.
Although she complained, she still had to do what she had to do, so in the morning, she left Zhennan Palace and went to Kaishan Temple. She sat in a donkey cart and soon followed the driver to Kaishan Temple.
But how could she meet Lu Qingtang? She was a princess, not to mention she didn't even know where she lived.
As soon as her mind turned around, she immediately remembered.
Luoxue bought some sesame oil money for the temple and took the opportunity to ask the young monk about the places in the temple where strangers were not allowed to enter.
Sure enough, the young monk told her that there were many guards in a courtyard in the backyard of the temple, and told her not to go in and disturb the nobles.
Guard? Noble person?
This is probably where Lu Qingtang lives now.
But how could she see her? This made Luoxue unable to help but feel confused.
