Chapter 329 Ru Han is confused
Ruhan's face was a little pale. She bit her lip and nodded slightly.
Lan Qingwu looked at Ruhan with his head slightly lowered, and could only sigh helplessly in his heart.
"Ruhan, I understand everything you said. Then you need to tell me the truth. What are your thoughts on this matter at this moment? Only when you figure out what you want can you know what to do next. Even though I am the queen, it is still difficult for me to help you with this matter!"
Ruhan's eyes were slightly red. She was really at a loss at this moment. She hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, I am actually very confused. I felt that sooner or later Lan Hao would take a concubine. I was prepared for this, but now I find that I can't let it go. It's so painful."
Ruping didn't understand this feeling and could only watch helplessly from the side.
Lan Qingwu frowned slightly, and after a while he said, "Have you had a good talk with Lan Hao? Does he really like that merchant girl? Does he have to take her in? If possible, you can talk frankly. You have been stubborn since you were young, so tell Lan Hao that if you really have feelings for that girl, you can make them happy. She's just a concubine. If Lan Hao is still undecided, you should try to win him back. If I can't stop you, I can't persuade you to leave that house. You should just let Lan Hao choose between you or that girl. If he insists on taking her in, then tell him that you will take back half of your love for him and only use it on the two children. See if he still wants your true love! Ruhan, the key lies in your own heart. It all depends on what you want."
Ruhan's eyes lit up but then dimmed again: "I can go talk to Lan Hao, but...will he think I'm jealous?"
Lan Qingwu said quietly, "He cares about you, but he only thinks that you like him, not that you are of the same mind. Ruhan, you have to think carefully. Once you penetrate someone, it will be for a lifetime, and the knot in your heart will also last a lifetime. I don't know what will happen in the future, but if you can fight for it now, why not give it a try? Lan Hao has been devoted to you since childhood. I don't believe that he will suddenly become affectionate with someone else."
Lan Qingwu's words finally made Ruhan make up her mind, "I will listen to you, young lady. I will go back and look for Lan Hao!"
Ruhan was in a hurry and called Miss Lan Qingwu again.
Seeing that Ruhan had recovered some of his spirits, Lan Qingwu felt relieved and chatted with the two of them for a while.
After Ruhan left the palace, Ruping said to Lan Qingwu, "Fortunately, I never planned to get married. Look how much has happened to me in this day and night."
Lan Qingwu said with a smile: "Ruping, I'm actually looking forward to your marriage!"
Ruping hurriedly shook her head like a rattle.
The Seventh Prince was getting better day by day, but Prince An in Prince An's Mansion was in a very bad condition. He angered Empress Dowager Li and drove her out of his mansion.
Prince An was merely sober and obedient. Empress Dowager Li lectured him for a long time, but when she saw her eldest son still looked dull and unresponsive, she was furious and disheartened. "If you continue like this, everything will be ruined, you know? This...this is so absurd and outrageous. How can I ever face the late emperor?"
Prince An's face flushed red at first, then his expression slowly calmed down: "My son was already ruined! Ever since his hand was crippled, his life has been ruined! I am a waste now!"
Empress Dowager Li was so angry that she pointed at Prince An and couldn't say anything for a long time.
After returning to the palace from Prince An, Empress Dowager Li had been experiencing chest discomfort and difficulty breathing. Before noon, she summoned the imperial physician.
After Lan Qingwu found out, she could no longer ignore it, so she rushed to the Cining Palace.
Empress Dowager Li was drowsy after drinking the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician. Seeing Lan Qingwu coming to visit, she widened her eyes slightly, "Empress, you are here! Go and call the Emperor! I have something to say to him!"
Lan Qingwu paused for a moment and said hurriedly, "Okay! I'll send someone to fetch Your Majesty right away. Empress Dowager, please get some rest first."
Empress Dowager Li fell asleep before Emperor Shenwu arrived.
Lan Qingwu then summoned the imperial physician and asked about Empress Dowager Li's health. After all, she was the biological mother of Emperor Shenwu. Seeing Empress Dowager Li like this, both he and Emperor Shenwu would feel bad.
After hearing the imperial physician's report, Lan Qingwu finally understood that Empress Dowager Li was simply enraged by Prince An. But what could Emperor Shenwu do about this matter? A son couldn't demand his parents be impartial.
Lan Qingwu gathered herself together and said to the somewhat helpless Nanny Li, "I will not allow the six concubines to take turns attending to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager needs to rest. Nanny, you must take good care of her and give her any instructions. His Majesty and I always hope that the Empress Dowager is safe and sound."
Nanny Li quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, your words are too kind! I will certainly take good care of the Empress Dowager."
But I couldn't help thinking that judging from how the Empress addressed the Empress Dowager, I could also imagine His Majesty's attitude towards Empress Dowager Li.
Nanny Li could only be more vigilant and more respectful and polite to Lan Qingwu, because she knew how much Emperor Shenwu valued the Queen!
Lan Qingwu added, "Madame Li is old, so she needs to take care of her health. I will tell His Majesty about the Empress Dowager's condition."
Nanny Li was even more relieved. This was good! The Empress was still as understanding as ever. Otherwise, with His Majesty's temper, he might not be willing to come to see Empress Dowager Li.
The next day, Emperor Shenwu finally found some time to visit the Cining Palace, but once again, his chest heaved with anger at Empress Dowager Li's words. He didn't even stay by Empress Dowager Li's bedside for a full quarter of an hour before storming out in anger.
