During the greeting ceremony, because of Concubine Jia's fainting, no one said much and they dispersed early.

Bai Ruiji won a victory the first time she paid her respects to the emperor, and she was in high spirits on her way back to the palace.

After returning to Yongshou Palace, when only she and Suyun were left in the room, Suyun rubbed Bai Ruiji's shoulders earnestly, "The master is really smart. With just a few words, Changchun Palace has been in turmoil. If the Empress Dowager knew about this, she would definitely be very satisfied with the master."

Although I was unhappy that she mentioned the Queen Mother, I have to say that Su Yun's massage technique is really good.

Bai Ruiji closed her eyes and enjoyed it leisurely, "This is nothing, just a beginning."

In the Qixiang Palace next door, Concubine Jia woke up not long after returning to the palace.

After waking up, I felt dizzy and vomited immediately.

Zhenshu applied ice to Concubine Jia's forehead and said distressedly, "My lady has suffered."

Concubine Jia clutched the bracelet given to her by the prince, her eyes reddened and she gnashed her teeth, "Bai Ruiji, that bitch, I'm going to make her live a life worse than death!"

Although Zhenshu was also very angry about what Bai Ruiji said, she also figured out something was wrong when she thought about what Bai Ruiji said and the reactions of others. "My Lord, after you fainted, I heard what they said and realized that others thought the same way."

Concubine Jia had always claimed to be a noble lady of the Yu family. When she suddenly realized that she was just a slave and a tribute girl in the eyes of others, she couldn't believe it. "Impossible, impossible, Zhenshu, you lied to me!"

Having said that, she also knew that in the entire Qing Dynasty, Zhenshu was the only one who would never deceive her.

"Zhenshu, no wonder I was so favored when I was in the palace. I was only a nobleman when I was first appointed. It turns out, it turns out..."

Concubine Jia cried so hard that she couldn't speak. The more she thought about Bai Ruiji, who had revealed all this, the angrier she became. If she didn't know before, she could still be proud, but now, how could she have the face to go out and see people!

Seeing Jia Guiren sad, Zhenshu thought of something and tried to comfort her: "My dear, we still have a chance. You forgot that we still have a son! As long as you give birth to the first child after the emperor ascends the throne, you will be honored as a mother by the son, and you will at least be a concubine. And the queen mother said that legitimate sons, eldest sons, and noble sons are all equally honorable. We are neither legitimate nor eldest, but we can plan for this son!"

Concubine Jia's eyes lit up instantly, "Yes, how could I forget, there is also a precious son! Zhenshu, this precious son must come out of my belly, no one can take the title of my child! When my precious son sits in that position in the future, he can also help Yu and the prince."

Zhenshu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, I won't worry about it, Master. But right now, Master, you still need to take care of yourself."

Thinking of this, Jia Guiren scolded Bai Ruiji bitterly, and then she felt relieved. "Well, it's already like this, so it's more important to take care of yourself first."

Concubine Jia is now obsessed with having a son, but she doesn't know that she has foreign blood and it will be useless even if she gives birth to a hundred sons.

Bai Ruiji didn't have good intentions to remind her. She still wanted to see her continue to jump around. What would she do if she knew the truth and no longer had the heart to make trouble?

Bai Ruiji was not in a hurry to get pregnant. After all, Hongli was still young and it was never too late for her to get pregnant whenever she wanted.

At the moment, it is more important to avenge the original owner.

It's just that the original owner didn't have many enemies. Apart from Hongli, who would be dealt with last, she really didn't know who to start with. So she simply wrote down the names of these people, put them in a group and drew lots.

She picked one up at random, opened it, and it read: Imperial Concubine Hui.

Bai Ruiji: Ok, let’s start with her.

Another day of greetings.

Concubine Jia was ill and didn't come, so without her to cause trouble, everyone else became much quieter.

Recently, in order to please Ruyi, Hongli often goes to her Yanx Palace. As a result, Ruyi has become a thorn in the eyes of the Queen and Concubine Hui.

The Queen sat at the head of the table, allowing Concubine Hui to verbally attack Ruyi. Only when she had heard enough would she speak a few words to mediate.

After paying respects, Bai Ruiji walked to Concubine Hui and said, "Greetings, Concubine."

Concubine Hui was like a proud peacock. She raised her chin high and said indifferently, "Get up."

Then he asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Bai Ruiji: "I have heard that there are two peacocks in the Imperial Concubine's Xianfu Palace. I have never seen a peacock before and I am very curious. I wonder if the Imperial Concubine will allow me to go to the Xianfu Palace to see them."

These two peacocks were given to her by Hongli. Concubine Hui was very proud of it and wished that everyone knew how much Hongli loved and valued her. Seeing that Bai Ruiji was eager to see them, she naturally agreed.

Changchun Palace and Xianfu Palace are adjacent to each other. Concubine Hui would come on foot to pay her respects on daily basis, so Bai Ruiji would just follow behind her and walk with her.

On the way, Concubine Hui kept talking about how obedient and beautiful her peacock was. When they arrived at the place, Bai Ruiji also started to praise it sincerely.

As for Concubine Hui, she can still interact with her as long as Jin Yuyan doesn't instigate her.

But unfortunately, they are destined to be enemies.

"My Lady, I am a little thirsty. May I go in and have a cup of tea?"

"Come in, then."

Bai Ruiji seemed really thirsty. After drinking one cup, she wanted a second one.

Concubine Hui rolled her eyes when she saw this, "She drinks water like a buffalo, Xingxuan, give her another cup."

"Oh, sorry to trouble Miss Xingxuan. Su Yun, go ahead and pour it. Remember to fill the Imperial Concubine's glass first."

"Yes." Su Yun said.

Concubine Hui was also impatient to let her servants serve Bai Ruiji, who was of humble origin, so she let Suyun pour tea.

Concubine Hui had already finished half of her cup of tea, and Suyun went over to fill it to seven-tenths full. However, when pouring the tea, she deliberately avoided people and put a small pill in it.

The pill will dissolve immediately when put into water. It is colorless and tasteless and no one will notice it.

Bai Ruiji waited until Concubine Hui drank the tea with the elixir in it, then she stood up and said goodbye and left.

"Xingxuan, Moxin, do you think this precious person has come to seek refuge with me?"

"I don't know either. Although this precious person came here on her own initiative, she doesn't speak or act warmly. I can't quite understand her." Xing Xuan said.

"Master, since she didn't say it clearly, let's just pretend we don't know. We shouldn't rush into this matter." Mo Xin said.

Concubine Hui nodded, thinking that what the two said made sense, "Then just ignore her."

She took off her armor and told Xing Xuan, "Go, bring me my pipa. I'm itching to play today, so I'll play it to my heart's content."
