Rebirth: Qingying comes back to reorganize the harem

Ruyi rarely left Changchun Palace all day and heard that there were already several versions of the rumors about the emperor and Zhen Huan.

Some said that the Emperor made the Empress Dowager faint with anger, while others said that the Empress Dowager was angry that the Emperor did not allow her to take her daughter back to the palace, so she unilaterally announced that she would have no further contact with the Emperor until her death.

……

On this day, Ruyi leisurely moved a chaise longue into the courtyard of Changchun Palace. She looked at the cherry blossom trees in the courtyard that had already blossomed. The petals fell on her and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers. She felt very happy and beautiful.

However, before this beautiful day had lasted even a stick of incense, Ruyi heard the sound of the emperor's sedan chair coming from outside.

Ruyi curled her lips helplessly, feeling that her peaceful life was really uneasy.

Outside the door, the emperor was holding his legitimate princess in his arms and holding his eldest son's hand, walking towards Ruyi step by step.

This kind of scene was what Ruyi had dreamed of seeing most in her previous life, but now that she really saw it, she felt that it was nothing.

But Yongqi seemed to be in a bad state today. He looked listless. Even when he paid his respects to Ruyi, he looked weak and his eyes were red, as if he had been crying.

Ruyi walked forward and gently rubbed her son's head, then asked Lianxin and惢心 to take the two children out to play. As for the emperor, after putting the two children down, he took Ruyi's hand and walked towards Changchun Palace.

Ruyi guessed that the emperor came this time probably to discuss something with her. After all, she had been married to the emperor for many years, but her appearance was still not as good as those young and beautiful women in the harem.

The reason why he had been able to have a deep love with the Emperor and the Empress over the years was simply because he had pretended to be deaf and dumb and acted according to circumstances.

"Your Majesty, why did you come so early today? The virtuous concubine in the palace is pregnant now. Your Majesty should go to the Yanxi Palace more often to accompany the virtuous concubine when you are free."

The emperor leaned back, a smile on his face, took Ruyi's hand in his own, and said cheerfully:

"Are you jealous? I came to Changchun Palace to have dinner with you, aren't you happy?"

The emperor held Ruyi's hand tightly against his chest. Ruyi was choked by the emperor's shocking remarks and swallowed uncontrollably before saying

"Your Majesty is used to making fun of me. As the Empress, I naturally have to help the harem to share the spoils equally. But I see that Yongqi seems absent-minded today. What mistakes did Yongqi make in the previous dynasty?"

Speaking of Yongji, the emperor put away the smile on his face and sighed.

"It's not a big deal, actually. It's just that the teacher who taught Yongji said that my legitimate son is not smart enough. I may have said something a bit harsh to Yongji when I came back. Although Yongji is not smart enough, he is diligent and down-to-earth. If I teach him well in the future, he may be able to accomplish something."

Ruyi had long known that her child was not smart enough, so she had always taught Yongji to be diligent in studying. After all, the emperor was not the most talented child of the previous emperor. If Yongji wanted to achieve something in the future, he must have something worthy of the emperor's praise.

"Your Majesty, you also know that although this child looks like you, his talent is very much like mine. If he becomes a little stupid in the future, Your Majesty does not have to put all your focus on Yongji."

"Alas, you can't say that. Although Yongji is not talented, he is diligent and has a tenacity, which is very similar to me in the past. Besides, Yongji is my eldest son. If he is not talented enough, he will be more diligent in the future. But you, my mother, must be heartbroken."

"How could that be? Your Majesty thinks highly of Yongji, I am so happy. Besides, Your Majesty is one of the best in the previous dynasty in terms of talent and ability. Yongji will definitely learn real skills in the future if he studies hard under his father."

The emperor was so delighted by Ruyi's flattery that his unhappiness at hearing the teacher say that his eldest son was not smart enough almost disappeared.

After the emperor finished his dinner, Ruyi took the opportunity to give him a way out and asked him to go to the harem to find other concubines to serve him. The emperor had not originally planned to stay overnight in Changchun Palace, so Ruyi's move indirectly won the emperor's favor.

Even before the emperor left, he said that he would take Ruyi to Jiangnan for a lake cruise in the future.

However, Ruyi was not very interested in going to Jiangnan, but was quite interested in going to the Old Summer Palace in the center of Jiangnan. She had only been in the palace for a few years, and Rong Pei must still be serving in the Old Summer Palace. When the time was right, it would be better for her to keep such a loyal servant by her side to serve her.
