Chapter 48 Seeking Medicine
  The queen rode a carriage and stopped at the gate of the general's mansion, then asked her entourage to report.

She came today to ask for something, and it was for her son, so naturally it was not suitable for her to put on airs.

Lu Jingyuan hadn't realized it yet, but the queen had already arrived at the door of his house. He had to let her in, so they sent someone out to greet her.

The queen was dressed very simply today, and she brought a lot of gifts this time because she had something to ask for.

The queen is actually a woman in her forties, a few years older than Lin Yuyan, but she has always taken good care of herself, so she still looks very young.

It is not difficult to see that after the prince was injured in the past few days, she has become much more haggard.

Lu Jingyuan was already very resistant to the prince's previous behavior, so when he saw the queen coming with a lot of gifts, he subconsciously wanted to refuse.

"Empress, you came to the General's Mansion privately and brought so many gifts. It wouldn't be good if the Emperor knew about it, right?"

After hearing this, the queen's eyes began to twinkle and her expression became a little unnatural. After hesitating for a long time, she finally spoke.

"What the prince did a few days ago was a bit excessive. He didn't think about it well and didn't pay attention to the proportions. Today I came to the general's residence as a mother to ask the general for medicine."

The expression on the queen's face was very sincere, but Lu Jingyuan also knew about the prince's injury. There were so many doctors in the capital who couldn't do anything. There were no medical students in the general's palace, so they couldn't help at all.

"Empress, I know that you love your son very much, but there are really no medical students in our house, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help you."

"I heard that the general was in danger several times at the border. He was able to save his life in the battlefield because the general's mansion has ancestral medicinal materials, which are magic medicine for treating trauma. Today, I am here to ask for medicine."

The queen's attitude was sincere. For the sake of her son, even if there was still a glimmer of hope, she still wanted to give it a try.

Lu Jingyuan understood the Queen's purpose of coming today, but he felt troubled in his heart.

He knew that the outside world always regarded the medicinal plant in their general's mansion as a treasure. In fact, only they themselves knew that although it was indeed a healing medicine that grew outside the Great Wall, it was not as miraculous as the outside world rumored.

"Queen, to tell you the truth, the General's Mansion does have this medicinal material, but..."

The queen thought that Lu Jingyuan still had concerns, so she quickly stood up and saluted.

"In the past, the prince didn't understand the rules and tried to break them several times. I know that the general is a loyal minister who cares about the country and the people. Naturally, I can't bear to see the crown prince of a country lingering on his sick bed. Not only as a mother, but also as the queen of a country, I am requesting the general. .”

Lu Jingyuan couldn't stand such a big gift, so he quickly stopped it.

"Queen, it's too serious to say this."

The queen thought he had other concerns, "These gifts sent today are all in exchange for the general. Even if the emperor asks about it in the future, you can explain that there is no need to worry so much."

"That's not the case, Queen Mother. You should also know that rumors from the outside world are always somewhat watery. I can give you this medicine, but first of all, although this medicinal material has miraculous effects on trauma, it is not a cure-all for all diseases."

Lu Jingyuan paused for a moment, "We, the Lu family, have been righteous people since ancient times. We will never refuse to save someone. It's just a mere medicinal material. If we can save the prince, no matter how many medicinal materials we have, it will be worth it."

"Wait a minute, I will ask Wushuang to send the medicine to the East Palace, but please ask the Queen to take back these gifts." Lu Jingyuan spoke and acted without leaving any gaps. He also knew that this was the one that allowed Lu Wushuang to get rid of his guilt. That's why we decided to let him deliver the medicine, and also to let him visit the prince.

The queen did not expect that Lu Jingyuan would give her the medicine so easily. She was very grateful. Although she was still a little doubtful, she immediately returned to the harem with her.

Lu Jingyuan felt that this was a good opportunity to help Lu Wushuang get out of his gloomy mood, so he immediately sent someone to take out the medicinal materials from the warehouse, and also took some nourishing and strengthening medicinal materials for him to send over.

Lu Wushuang knew that this was something that the General's Mansion had kept at the bottom of the box. Naturally, he also knew that his family had good intentions, so he immediately adjusted his emotions and set off for the East Palace.

"Get out! Get away from me!"

The prince was so hysterical that the maids and eunuchs serving him did not dare to come forward. Even the queen kept a certain distance from him.

But after all, she couldn't watch her son continue to be so decadent. The queen took advantage of the prince's mood to stabilize a little, and quickly stepped forward to dissuade him.

"Your Majesty, the general has promised to send over the ancestral herbs from their general's residence later. You will definitely be saved. I believe my mother."

"No one in the general's palace wants to see me, so how could they be willing to give me the medicinal materials!"

These days of training have made him even more irritable and depressed. The prince has changed from his usual gentle demeanor and has been throwing things in the East Palace all day long. Now that the entire palace knows about it, he doesn't dare to go to the East Palace at all.

As soon as he finished speaking, the prince threw the medicine on the table again, and the bowl happened to fall on Lu Wushuang's face. He also listened clearly to the conversation between mother and son.

Looking at the medicine in his hand that had been treasured by the General's Mansion for many years, he still asked the people next to him to pass it on.

"The Empress, the Commander-in-Chief of the Yulin Guards, Lord Lu, asked to see you. She said she was here to deliver medicinal materials."

When the queen heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, "Your Majesty, I have promised you that I will get the medicinal materials for you from now on. When they come, you will be saved immediately."

The prince raised his eyes tiredly and happened to see Lu Wushuang standing at the door.

There were some unclear emotions on Lu Wushuang's face. He also knew that he had lost his temper just now, so he stood up and arranged his hair a little.

"Wushuang is determined, but..."

After all, the prince has followed the rules for so many years. When he meets outsiders, his first reaction is to tidy himself up.

"Your Highness, please rest assured that this is a medicinal material that has been passed down from our ancestors for many years in the General's Palace. Although there is no guarantee that His Highness's injuries will be healed, it is much more effective than ordinary medicinal materials."

Lu Wushuang knew that his father was doing it for him this time, so he was willing to take out the medicinal materials, and also to make up for the guilt in his heart.

"Give this medicine to the imperial doctors. They should know how to use it."

In fact, the queen also knew early on that this medicinal material might not be as effective as rumored, but for the sake of her son, she had to give it a try.
