The Apo Master dressed up as Concubine Ling and killed the Ruyi sisters

At the banquet, Balin Meiruo heard the emperor say that he intended to marry the Mongolian Heshuo Prince Chenggunzabu, and he also saw that the young prince Lawangdorji was a man of both literary and military talents and a handsome appearance.

Balin Meiruo thought that his daughter was the sixth princess and that he had the forty-nine Mongolian tribes behind him. No matter from which perspective the emperor would definitely let Lawangdorji serve his daughter.

Just when he was about to exchange a few words with Heshuo Prince Chenggunzabu, he heard that the Emperor had chosen Concubine Ling's seventh princess Jingyu, which really made Balin Meiruo angry.

Balin Meiruo saw that Ruyi was also unhappy, and she followed him directly to the Yangxin Palace after the banquet. Balin Meiruo felt that with Ruyi's status in the emperor's mind, she would definitely be able to persuade the emperor to change the imperial edict, so she returned to her own palace to wait for news.

But after waiting for a long time, the emperor's will did not change at all.

In the harem, Balin Meiruo looked down on Yan Wan when they first met, but she didn't expect that after many years, Yan Wan not only remained in favor, but also gave birth to two sons and two daughters, and was pregnant with another. Why did Yan Wan get all the good things?

Balin Meiruo felt that the emperor was humiliating her and looked down on the Balin tribe. But after many years in the palace, Balin Meiruo had learned to restrain herself and knew that she couldn't go directly to the emperor to make trouble, otherwise she would end up with the same shameful result as Ruyi.

When going to the Yiku Palace to pay respects, Balin Meiruo always spoke in a sarcastic tone to Yanwan, saying that Yanwan was so anxious to ask the emperor to arrange a marriage for the Seventh Princess regardless of the fact that she was only a seven-year-old child. It was obvious that she wanted to use the Seventh Princess' marriage to win over Heshuo Prince Chenggunzabu. It was clearly selling her daughter for fame and fortune!

Yan Wan knew that Balin Meiruo was jealous of Jingyu's good marriage, so she sent Balin Meiruo away with a few words neither humble nor arrogant.

On this day, Princess Hejing brought Prince Qingyou to pay respects to the Emperor. Coincidentally, Yan Wan also came to the Yangxin Palace to pay respects to the Emperor, and they sat together and started talking.

The prince was very active, so after paying his respects, Princess Hejing asked the nanny beside her to take Qingyou out to play.

Before Yan Wan came to the Yangxin Palace to pay respects, she wanted to bring Jing Yu and Jing Yun with her. But Jing Yun insisted on playing with her sisters. Balin Meiruo knew Yan Wan would refuse, so she asked Ruyi to bring the princesses to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the flowers.

E Yinzhu happened to be there, so Yan Wan asked E Yinzhu to look after her.

Seeing that Yan Wan was not there, Balin Meiruo could not help but complain to Ruyi, "Empress, Sister Yupin, please judge for yourself. Jingxuan is obviously ranked before the Seventh Princess. If the Emperor wants to grant a marriage, he should give it to Jingxuan first. How can he skip the elder sister and marry the younger sister first?"

"These past few days, I have been kindly congratulating Noble Concubine Ling on her wedding. Look at how arrogant Noble Concubine Ling is. Now that she has a Mongolian prince as her in-law, she simply doesn't take anyone seriously! He's just a prince, isn't he? How can he be as respectable and honorable as our Balin tribe in Mongolia?!"

Since the day when Ruyi was forcibly sent out of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity by the Emperor, she has not seen the Emperor for more than ten days. The Emperor even forgot the rule of resting in the Queen's bedroom on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month.

When the concubines came to the Yikun Palace to pay their respects, and heard Balin Meiruo mention the granted marriage, Ruyi thought that Concubine Ling would be proud and show off in front of them.

Unexpectedly, no matter how jealous or sarcastic Balin Meiruo's words were, Concubine Ling remained indifferent. It seemed that in Concubine Ling's eyes, this good marriage was just an ordinary reward from the emperor to her and her children, not a great grace.

Ruyi was more angry at Concubine Ling's behavior than at showing off in front of her.

Today, Ruyi received the news early that Princess Hejing and Prince Qingyou came to pay their respects, and the emperor also sent someone to tell her to go with them.

Ruyi was still angry that day, so she took the opportunity to turn down the offer with the help of Balin Meiruo. But who would have thought that the imperial concubine would go to the Yangxin Palace to show her courtesy.

Ruyi said, "In the past, the Queen Mother and Empress Xiaoxian fought endlessly for their own daughters over the marriage to the Khorchin tribe, and neither of them was willing to marry the princess far away. Concubine Ling also saw it with her own eyes, but who would have thought that when it was her own princess' turn to marry, she would be so calm!"

Balin Meiruo immediately echoed, "It's obvious that the imperial concubine knows that she is of humble origin. Even if the emperor still favors her now, she is old after all. How long can the emperor favor her? That's why she wants to marry Heshuo Prince Chenggunzabu so that she will have someone to rely on in the future!"

Hai Lan knew Ruyi was unhappy. "Earlier, Imperial Concubine Ling instigated Concubine Wan to compete for favors with a collection of mourning poems, which caused a rift between the emperor and my sister. I wanted to return the favor by spreading rumors to sow discord between Imperial Concubine Ling and Imperial Concubine Shu."

"Noble Concubine Ling has always been cunning. After she noticed it, she went to Chuxiu Palace to explain. Coincidentally, the emperor also went to Chuxiu Palace that day. After that, the emperor ordered my sister and Noble Concubine Ling to organize a banquet, and even decided on the marriage between the Mongolian prince and the seventh princess at the banquet."

"I guess that Concubine Ling must have heard from the Emperor in advance that he intended to marry the princess to Lawangdorji, so she tried her best to recommend the Seventh Princess to the Emperor."

Balin Meiruo agreed with Hailan's analysis and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, Sister Yupin is right, it must be like this!"

After seeing that Yan Wan had left, the people who stayed behind were all from Ruyi's camp, so she didn't want to attract attention. She used the excuse of taking care of the princess and stayed away from the place of trouble.

Jingxuan saw the beautiful lotus in the lake and insisted on taking her three sisters to see it. They happened to meet the naughty Prince Qingyou, who avoided the maids who were serving him and came to the lake to play.

Princess Jingju and Prince Qingyou collided with each other while running, knocking the ball in Prince Qingyou's hand into the lake.

Princess Jingxuan was hit and said angrily, "Which blind slave dared to hit me? If I find out, I will let my mother beat you with a stick! Why don't you kneel down and apologize to me!"

Prince Qingyou is the legitimate son of Sebuteng Balzhuer, the auxiliary duke of the Khorchin tribe of Mongolia, and Princess Gulun Hejing, the legitimate daughter of the emperor and Empress Xiaoxian. He is also the emperor's first legitimate grandson and has been brought up in great pampering since childhood.

Prince Qingyou immediately said angrily, "I am Prince Oljetemur Erkebabai of the Khorchin tribe. It would be fine if you didn't apologize for bumping into me, but you even dared to yell in front of me. Do you want to die?!"

Seeing the two quarreling, E Yinzhu hurried over to smooth things over, "Stop quarreling, it's all a misunderstanding. Princess Jingyun, he is the son of Princess Hejing..."

Before E Yinzhu finished speaking, Princess Jingjuan looked Prince Qingyou up and down, put on the airs of an elder, and scolded him: "Who do I think you are? It turns out that you are the son of my third sister. I am your sixth aunt. What crime should you be punished for bumping into your sixth aunt?"

Prince Qingyou fought back without showing any weakness: "I was wondering who was so audacious. It turns out that you are the princess of Concubine Ying who always relied on the Balin tribe for support. It is not surprising that the daughter who praised the tiny Balin tribe to the sky would raise a daughter like you who is so ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth!"

E Yinzhu agreed with what Prince Qingyou said and almost laughed out loud. Princess Jingjun felt humiliated and pushed Prince Qingyou away out of shame and anger.

The two were standing by the lake, and Prince Qingyou was caught off guard and was pushed into the lake by Princess Jingjuan!
