Although Ling Yunche and Maoqian have been married for many years, Ruyi has never heard Ling Yunche say anything about Maoqian.

It was the first time that Ruyi heard about Ling Yunche's married life. Somehow, when Ruyi heard this, she felt a little happy and contented.

Yan Wan sensed Ruyi's inner thoughts and felt disgusted. Ling Yunche must have stood by and watched the original owner in Qixiang Palace for five years, and Ruyi must have felt the same way when she knew about it.

Yan Wan said: "The palace is not the place to judge the right and wrong between you and your wife, let's talk about business first!"

The emperor asked, "Your marriage was personally arranged by me. If you are not Ling Yunche's ideal partner, then who is?"

Everyone looked at Mao Qian, and Ling Yunche stared at Mao Qian nervously, fearing that she would say something she shouldn't.

Mao Qian said: "Ling Yunche and I sleep in the same bed but have different dreams. Many times, Ling Yunche drank too much and talked in his sleep, shouting "Ruyi, Ruyi". Later, I found out that the person in his dream was not an ordinary woman, but the current queen!"

The emperor was annoyed and said, "Mao Qian, don't be rude to the queen!"

Ling Yunche was even more angry, "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know what it means to slander the Queen's reputation? Stop going crazy!"

Yan Wan and the others were silent. Ruyi explained for herself and Ling Yunche, "Your Majesty, even if Ling Yunche called out Ruyi in his dream, it doesn't necessarily mean my name. I think Ling Yunche must be praying for Your Majesty in his dream, hoping that Your Majesty can have everything he wants!"

Everything goes well? This excuse is too far-fetched. Is Ruyi sure that saying this will not make things worse?

Yan Wan was too tired to complain. Judging from the expressions of E Yinzhu and Han Xiangjian, they were probably thinking the same thing, but it was not easy for her to say it directly in front of the emperor.

Mao Qian is a straightforward woman. Since she has decided to go to the palace to expose the affair between Ling Yunche and Ruyi, Mao Qian will not back down. After hearing Ruyi's explanation, Mao Qian immediately refuted.

"As Ling Yunche's wife, I don't know what he is thinking. How can the Queen know what Ling Yunche is thinking?"

Ruyi was speechless for a moment, and Hailan immediately rebuked Maoqian, "How dare you! Ling Yunche has always been loyal to the emperor, so it is reasonable for the queen to guess this. Even if you are dissatisfied with Ling Yunche in your heart, how can you vent your anger on the queen?!"

Mao Qian has long known that Concubine Yu is the Empress's right-hand man, and many things are done by Concubine Yu for the Empress. Naturally, Concubine Yu is more difficult to deal with than the Empress, but Mao Qian is not afraid.

"I am not venting my anger for no reason. I have evidence! During the days when Ling Yunche talked in his sleep, he was in a low mood and looked very painful. I don't know what happened, but I have written down those days!"

Then Maoqian took out some old pieces of paper with dates written on them and read them out in public.

Others didn't know what these dates meant, but Ruyi and Hai Lan understood immediately after hearing them.

Ruyi was grateful for Ling Yunche's loyalty to her, and explained to the emperor: "Have you forgotten, Your Majesty? The first day was the day when your son Yongjing and I were killed by Jin and Grandma Tian, ​​and the second day was the day when your son Jingsi and I died of fright."

"The third day was the day when the Emperor severely reprimanded me because of Concubine Rong. Your Majesty, these days are full of separation and pain for you. What's wrong with Ling Yunche feeling sad and grief for you?"

The others didn't feel much after hearing this, but Han Xiangjian, whose possibility of having children was cut off by Ruyi's bowl of sterilization soup, felt a surge of anger after hearing this.

At that time, Han Xiangjian had to become the emperor's concubine for the sake of her parents and clansmen because Han Qi died. She didn't want to get pregnant with the emperor's child, so she asked Ruyi for help.

Now Han Xiangjian still doesn't want to get pregnant, but the effect of the sterilization soup is too strong. Even after years of conditioning, Han Xiangjian still often feels unwell.

Moreover, Han Xiangjian had heard about some past events over the years and knew that Ruyi had a better way, but still used such strong medicine. She became more and more dissatisfied with Ruyi.

She was clearly the biggest victim, but from Ruyi's tone, she felt that the Emperor shouldn't have hit her and that she was wronged?

Han Xiangjian was feeling very angry and accidentally glanced at Yan Wan who was sitting below the emperor. An idea suddenly came to her mind.

"The prince and princess are both the emperor's children. The emperor must be heartbroken by their sudden death. Lord Ling has shown his sadness in the past few days, which is enough to show his loyalty to the emperor. I guess it's because these days happened to be related to the queen, so Madam Ling misunderstood, right?"

Mao Qian shook her head and said, "If one thing is related, it can be considered a coincidence. But if everything is related, is it still a coincidence?"

E Yinzhu seemed to have caught the flaw in Han Xiangjian's words. She apologized to Yan Wan and asked, "My words may have offended you. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"

"Mao Qian, I want to ask you if you have heard Lord Ling talk in a similar way in his sleep again this year?"

Mao Qian didn't know what E Yin Zhu wanted to ask. After thinking carefully, she shook her head at E Yin Zhu and said, "No."

E Yinzhu asked, "Sister Rongpin just said that Lord Ling was heartbroken for the Emperor's loss of a son. Earlier this year, the Emperor and Concubine Ling's two sons died on the same day. This was such a huge pain, why didn't Lord Ling feel sad for the Emperor?!"

E Yinzhu's question not only made the emperor realize that Ling Yunche treated Ruyi differently, but also indirectly proved that the rumors between Ling Yunche and Yan Wan were indeed true.

Seeing everyone's suspicious eyes, Mao Qian struck while the iron was hot, "Your Majesty, when I came here, I moved a locked box from Ling Yunche's study. Ling Yunche treasures the things in this box very much and never lets anyone touch it! I have seen it more than once, in the dead of night, Ling Yunche took the items inside and secretly looked at them!"

The emperor signaled to bring the box up. Ling Yunche got anxious when he heard that and yelled at Mao Qian, "You bitch, you actually dared to peek into my box and bring it to the emperor? What on earth do you want to do!"

Mao Qian was not afraid at all. "I just want to see what the treasure you are obsessed with is! Your Majesty, please look, although this pair of shoes has been around for a long time, it can be seen that the owner must have cherished it very much and took it out from time to time to touch it."

"Look at the embroidered pattern on the lining of these shoes. Doesn't this Ruyi cloud pattern just coincide with the maiden names of my husband and the Empress?!"

Ruyi and Hailan never expected that there would be this pair of shoes in the box, and they never thought that after so many years, Ling Yunche would treasure it so much.

Hai Lan looked at Ling Yunche's panic-stricken look and felt that something was wrong.

After all, having known Ruyi and Ling Yunche for so many years, how could Hai Lan not be aware of the inexplicable feelings between them? But can this be resolved in front of the emperor?

No, she must find a way to help her sister get rid of this suspicion!
