The old east wind comes to dream

But a queen is a queen after all, and the ups and downs of so many years are not in vain.So soon, the queen's face sank.

"no!"

She looked at Chu Lan, frowned slowly, and suddenly smiled coldly, "You'er, actually, you planned to go to the northern border with Yuan'er from the very beginning. What you said just now, It's also to make Bengong feel soft, so I must say it on purpose!"

"Could it be that you thought that Ben Gong would be the kind of person who would put you in danger regardless of the safety of your niece for the sake of your parents? Have you ever thought that if I promise you, your mother will surely do the same." Blame me for favoring one over another!"

"Furthermore, there are so many imperial physicians in the palace, and there is no lack of military physicians in the army. It is enough to send a few to follow Yuan'er, and there is no need for you to go to the danger yourself. You must be clear about this. Then, you Why do you have to go to the northern border?" At this point, the queen couldn't help but feel suspicious.Originally, the crown prince and Emperor Tianshun had a dispute over Lian Yong'an, but the queen also heard about it afterwards, and probably knew some reasons.She is also more inclined, there must be something strange about Gu Zizhan.Therefore, when Chu Lan showed that he did not hesitate to lie to herself in order to go to the northern border, the queen couldn't help but wonder what Chu Lan knew.

The queen had never spoken harshly to her before, but now she suddenly became strict, if it were someone else, she would probably have panicked.But in Chu Lan's heart, the queen would have such a reaction, which she expected early in the morning.

So, her expression didn't change, she just slowly knelt down in front of the queen.

Although the queen couldn't bear it in her heart, she still snorted coldly and didn't wake her up.

Chu Lan didn't make much excuses, she just said lightly: "Your Majesty is right to punish you, I lied to you."

Seeing that the queen didn't answer, Chu Lan went on talking on her own: "I've been dreaming about Ah Che recently. She speaks unequivocally. She never did those evil things. She wants me to believe her, and even more so to save her... ...."

The Queen couldn't help but twitch her eyebrows, unexpectedly, it was really related to this matter!

The queen did not interrupt, Chu Lan continued: "I think you should know how important she is to me. So this incident has become a nightmare that haunts me every day and sleepless at night. Before that, I I just thought it was her own wrongdoing, although it is unacceptable, but also helpless."

"Fortunately, Brother Your Highness, he trusts Ah Che more than I do. This makes me feel ashamed. Your Highness told me a few days ago that Ah Che did not betray him, nor did he lie to me. However, I will mention it again now. This matter is not at the right time. Your Highness asked me to be calm, but I couldn't be indifferent. You know, the person who convicted Ah Che at that time was Xing Kang, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and now the other person is in the northern border! "

"I want to go out with His Highness. First, it is really for the convenience of taking care of His Highness's body. In terms of medical skills, apart from Yi Xu, I ask myself that there is no one in the palace who is stronger than me. Second, although Xing Kang is used to sitting on the fence , but this kind of villain is also the most life-saving, and the most provocative. If he really slandered Ah Che and saw the prince walking with me, he would definitely panic, and as long as he opens his mouth to make trouble, it will be easier to show his flaws."

"Besides, he is the father of Concubine Xing after all, and he always relies on this status to act externally. As far as Donggong is concerned, it is not a good thing to let him go on like this."

Following Chu Lan's words, the queen gradually realized the importance of this matter.Indeed, although she had never come into contact with Xing Kang, but he went out on an errand, and in the end, the Tian family father and son had a suspicion. The queen naturally didn't have a good impression of him.In addition, although Concubine Xing behaved submissively in front of her, how could the Empress not know that this woman was very domineering in the Eastern Palace, and she would overwhelm Su Shi in every way, and she actually regarded herself as the hostess of the Eastern Palace.

In this way, this Xing family has become a stumbling block that drags down the East Palace.Thinking about it this way, for the sake of her husband's innocence and the reputation of the East Palace, it is reasonable for Chu Lan to want to go to the northern border to find out.

The queen sighed, "Oh!" She took Chu Lan's hand again and asked her to sit up and sit down, "You child, you have such a serious concern, and you don't want to tell your aunt. Aren't you afraid you'll get sick from boredom?" She couldn't help but sighed again, the queen patted the back of Chu Lan's hand, and said, "Don't worry about anything. Don't be like your mother, alas, hold everything back In my heart, I only suffered for myself in the end.”

When her mother was suddenly mentioned again, Chu Lan was slightly taken aback, but quickly turned her attention away.

The order to allow her to accompany the army, whether the prince is willing or not, cannot be issued by him.Because, in the final analysis, they are just cousins, if they get too close, there will inevitably be people with evil intentions who will make a fuss out of it.Only when the queen agrees to this matter, and then grants her a public identity with Yizhi, and becomes a person who also goes to war according to the order, will she not be offended.

At the same time, Gu Zizhan will definitely appear in front of people this time, and let the queen know about it early, so that someone can turn them around in front of Emperor Tianshun in the future.

It's just that in this way, although it can't be regarded as intentional deception, after all, she also concealed a lot from the queen.Why is it that I am not using it?

**********

On the second day, news came out from the palace that the Empress had a big quarrel with Emperor Tianshun, and then slammed the door and left.

Immediately afterwards, a decree came out from the Hekun Palace, appointing Chu Lan, a medical officer of the Imperial Hospital, as the deputy head of the hospital, and allowed to accompany the prince to the northern border.

Soon afterwards, Emperor Tianshun also sent a decree to Gu Zhai.In the imperial decree, Emperor Tianshun clarified the position of Chu Lan's deputy head, the same as the fifth-rank official.Another three imperial doctors were sent to accompany them, accompanied by a team of ten people, and Du Chulan got to enjoy the carriage to show the court's sympathy.

After Chu Lan learned about it, she couldn't help admiring the queen even more.I'm afraid that the queen may not really be ignorant of her petty thoughts.It's just that one doesn't say anything, and the other doesn't ask, so as to save more face for each other.

But thinking of the queen, naturally, she thought of what the queen said to her before.

After all, escaping is not the way to go. It doesn't mean that if she doesn't think about these things, they don't exist.After all, she wanted to have an explanation for the time she passed away.

So, two days before leaving, Chu Lan drove through the downtown area and arrived in front of the Chu Mansion.

The old butler had been guarding outside the door early in the morning, and when he saw Chu Lan's carriage from a distance, he immediately came up to meet him.

Chu Lan stopped the carriage, opened the curtain, saw that it was the old butler, and smiled at him.

In a hurry, the old butler smiled and said: "Miss, you are finally back! The master ordered you to come a few days ago. I haven't seen you for a long time. Hey, I am so happy that you can come back." !” Saying that, the old butler couldn't help but raised his sleeve to wipe the corners of his eyes.

Chu Lan got out of the carriage and comforted her softly, "Uncle Zhong, I'm sorry for you."

The old butler wiped the corner of his eyes again, "Oh, I'm so sentimental, don't take offense, miss. These few days, after court, the master went to sit in the study. Although he didn't say anything, the old servant knew that he was actually waiting What about you? Oh, my lord, you are always stuffed in your heart about everything. You are the same about this, miss!"

Seeing Chu Lan helplessly smile, the old housekeeper hurriedly stopped talking, "Oh, this old slave made a slip of the tongue, Miss, don't take it to heart!"

Chu Lan smiled, "Of course not."

When they came to the door of the study, the old butler knocked on the door, and sure enough, he heard Taifu Chu's voice coming from inside.

Chu Lan walked in slowly by herself.

Taifu Chu was at his desk writing the regulations to appease the states and counties attacked by thieves and bandits in Southwest China. When he saw Chu Lan coming, he raised his head, was slightly stunned, and said, "You'er is here. Are you there now?" Sit down and wait a while, for my father, it will be ready in another quarter of an hour."

Chu Lan nodded, walked to the side and sat down.Looking at Taifu Chu, he suddenly realized that his father, whom he hadn't seen for several months, was already so old.Those old-fashioned and cold people in the past seem to be unable to support this aging body.

For some reason, Chu Lan felt that the tip of her nose was a little sore.

Sure enough, after a quarter of an hour, Mrs. Chu stopped writing.

He got up and went outside the house to ask someone to come in for tea, and Mrs. Chu also came over and sat down opposite Chu Lan.The two took a sip of tea, and Taifu Chu said, "Let's talk about it?"

Chu Lan shook her head, "Not today, let's play chess with father some other day.

Chu Taifu Nian Xu smiled, "Since that's the case, then, you should come here this time to ask me something serious. Coincidentally, I also have something serious to ask you."

Chu Lan frowned slightly, and asked, "What does father want to ask?"

Chu Taifu raised his eyebrows, "You spend the money from Chu's Commercial Bank, but is it still enough?"

Looking at him like this, Chu Lan couldn't help but feel bored.Her father was never willing to open up the skylight to her and always have something to say.

Suppressing the emotions in her heart, Chu Lan said lightly: "If you have anything to say, Father, you might as well just say it."

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Chu's face was a little gloomy, but then he waved his hands, "Forget it, since the wrench has been passed to your hands, it's up to you to decide how you want to spend it and who you want to give it to. But, You should be more cautious in doing this, I can still block it for you now, but in the future, you still have to rely on yourselves."

Chu Lan almost subconsciously turned her lips back in her heart, but at the same time, she was also aware of her own point, so she quickly suppressed her emotions and listened carefully to Master Chu's words.She discarded those external disturbances, and only learned from these words, and found that in these words of Taifu Chu, she heard only kindness.

Unusually, Chu Lan softened her voice and thanked Mrs. Chu: "Thank you, father."

At this time, Taifu Chu was also a little surprised, and became a little at a loss.

After a long time, Mrs. Chu looked at Chu Lan with some concern, and carefully asked: "What's wrong with my son? Could it be that he has been too worried and hurt his body in the past few days? Alas, I told you not long ago as a father, you must not Indulging in your children's affair, you should put your body first in everything, why are you always so careless!" The more he said, the more he frowned, and his expression became serious again.

It was this familiar accusation again, but for the first time, Chu Lan could hear a trace of concern in it.Finally couldn't help but laughed helplessly.

Interrupting Taifu Chu's "lesson", Chu Lan looked at him and asked:

"Father, when you were young, did you also love to nag like this to my aunt? How did my aunt respond to you?"

Grand Tutor Chu obviously didn't expect Chu Lan to ask such a question at all, and was a little stunned for a moment.

Looking at Chu Lan with some cloudy eyes, it seemed to look at another person through her.

After a long time, while muttering, Mrs. Chu seemed to be talking to herself, "She, how could she respond to me?"

"Your mother, she will always only smile at people."
