Chapter 114 Fu Cha Lang Ya 114
Chapter 114 Fu Cha Lang Ya 114
After suffering losses at the hands of Wei Yanwan one after another, Hongli's attitude became worse day by day.
Ruyi finally calmed down after Hailan's persuasion, and spent the whole day holding the book of opera, feeling sad about the passing of time.
惢心 walked in and said worriedly, "Master, the Eighth Princess is crying. Do you want the wet nurse to bring her over for you to take a look?"
Ruyi sighed, "Close the window. I have a headache. If she's not feeling well, there's a wet nurse to look after her."
After saying this, he felt that these words were too heartless, and looked at惢心 with sad eyes.
"惢心, do you think the Eighth Princess' fate is incompatible with mine?"
"Master, you can't say that!"
惢心 was so scared that she turned around and looked around. The princess had already received little attention, and if her reputation of being a mother-killer spread, her life would be ruined.
"I'm not talking nonsense. Think carefully about how much suffering I've endured since I became pregnant with her."
"No... She not only defeated this palace, but also the emperor."
The more Ruyi thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. She threw down the play in her hand and held惢心's hands tightly, hoping that she would agree with her words.
"It was because of her that the Emperor fell seriously ill, and then I suffered as well. Ever since she was born, nothing has gone right for me."
"Most importantly, the relationship between me and the Emperor is no longer what it used to be."
"Master, you can't think like that. The Emperor took the princess so seriously when she was pregnant, and you were so eager for her arrival. She is your own flesh and blood!"
惢心 knelt down and told Ruyi about her past expectations, hoping to change her paranoid thoughts.
Unfortunately, once Ruyi confirmed this fact, she would not be easily persuaded.
"No... that's it. It must be like this."
惢心 had no choice but to say something else to change the subject, fearing that Ruyi would think about it further and do something outrageous again.
"We'll talk about this later. Master, Rong Pei is still in the Ministry of Punishment, you see!"
"The Queen is torturing Rong Pei to target me. She will not let her suffer too much or die. I cannot give in to them. Let's wait and see. I believe Rong Pei will persevere."
The corners of惢心's mouth twitched, and she stopped trying to persuade him.
Even if she brought him back, she wouldn't be able to take care of him. Guard Ling is still recovering from his injuries.
I don’t know what the emperor is planning. He doesn’t care about things that violate palace rules, and the empress pretends not to see it.
Even Concubine Yu didn't care. This was the harem, so what was the big deal about having a guard living there?
惢心 was wrongly accusing Hongli. She sent the person to the Yanx Palace just to warn Ruyi, but she never expected that she would keep the person.
In addition, since Hongli had been overly indulgent towards Ruyi before, no one thought that this was wrong.
After all, Ling Yunche had entered Ruyi's bedroom before.
Hailan worked day and night and finally finished embroidering the screen within the specified time. She sent it to Changchun Palace with great anticipation.
"Lady Yu's craftsmanship is truly unique. The phoenix's eyes are embroidered with great charm."
Langya stroked the screen and admired it constantly, completely ignoring Hailan's haggard face.
During these months, Hongli also knew that Hai Lan was being punished, and because of his dissatisfaction with Ruyi, he had not been to the Yanx Palace for a long time.
Just a few days after Hai Lan started vying for favor, she was forgotten by Hongli.
"It's my honor that the Empress likes me." Hai Lan was secretly delighted in her heart. All the hard work of the past few months was not in vain.
The next second, Langya's words made her stand there in a daze.
"Lianxin, send this screen to the Cining Palace. The Empress Dowager has been confined to the palace for many days, chanting Buddhist scriptures. As the younger generation, we should also show our filial piety."
"What's wrong with Concubine Yu? Are you unwilling?"
"Don't worry, the Queen Mother will definitely like such excellent craftsmanship."
"No... no, I'm just too happy."
Hailan quickly adjusted her mood, suppressed the fear in her heart, and tried hard to make her voice sound normal.
After some polite exchanges, Hai Lan quickly fled out of Changchun Palace, squeezing Ye Xin's hand so hard that it hurt along the way.
After arriving at the Yanx Palace, go straight to the main hall.
"Sister! Sister!"
"Hai Lan? What happened that makes you so anxious? Didn't you go to deliver a screen to the Empress today?"
Ruyi was in a good mood. She had already figured out how to deal with her relationship with the Eighth Princess.
Then there is Hailan's screen.
A lot of things here were done by her efforts. The palace maids around Hai Lan could not have done it on their own.
After the serving palace maids left, only the two of them were left in the room, and even Ye Xin was sent out.
The fear that Hai Lan had hidden all the way suddenly broke out, and she fell into the chair, leaning on Ruyi's shoulder and trembling.
"Sister, that screen was given to the Queen Mother by the Queen Mother!!"
Ruyi was shocked, but her face was full of confusion.
"Isn't this a good thing? The Emperor has always been filial. If you can win the Empress Dowager's favor, your life will be easier."
"No, sister, I... I soaked the embroidery thread in the potion."
Ruyi pretended to know nothing, stood up suddenly and looked at Hailan in shock.
"What did you say? Hailan, what do you want to do?"
"Sister, the Queen has suppressed you for many years. I really can't bear to see you being wronged all the time. As long as the Queen is gone, with the relationship between you and the Emperor, the position of Queen will definitely be yours."
The corners of Ruyi's mouth rose slightly and then quickly fell, and she angrily scolded in a low voice.
"Hai Lan, why are you so confused? I don't need the position of Queen. I want you to live well. The maids in this palace have seen everything. How could you possibly hide this trick from them?"
Hailan was so moved that she shed tears. Her previous panic disappeared and she secretly made up her mind.
If she was destined to be discovered, she must pave the way for her sister as quickly as possible. After all, she would die anyway, and Yongqi was also under her sister's name, so she had nothing to worry about.
"Don't worry, sister. The embroidery of the phoenix wearing a peony is special. The part soaked in the potion is all hidden at the bottom. They won't be able to find anything abnormal. I'm just worried."
"The Queen Mother's health has not been good. If she gets implicated, then..."
Hearing that Hai Lan had hidden well, Ruyi also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although this matter cannot be traced back to her, it is best not to be discovered just in case.
As for the Queen Mother...
Everyone has their own destiny, there's nothing you can do about it.
In this way, it can be regarded as revenge for her aunt. This is karma, and the empress dowager cannot blame anyone else.
At that time, the queen will definitely have to go to take care of the patient, and maybe he can take the queen away with him.
After figuring it out, Ruyi put her arm around Hailan's shoulders and comforted her, "It's okay, don't be afraid. You also said that they can't find out. Let's just pretend nothing happened."
Ruyi sighed deeply and continued, "The Queen Mother has done me a favor. I'll try to find a way to persuade her not to use that screen."
"If it really doesn't work, that's God's arrangement. I've always treated you as my younger sister, so naturally no one else can compare to you."
Hai Lan's eyes lit up after hearing these words, and she wished she could pick up a knife and kill the Queen and the others right away.
"Sister treats me so well!"
