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

One stone can cause a thousand ripples.惢心's words have already confirmed the affair between Ruyi and Ling Yunche!

Rong Pei originally thought that惢心's arrival would help Ruyi clear her grievances, and then with Hai Lan's help, she would overthrow Concubine Ling.

No one would have expected that惢心 had already been instigated by Concubine Ling and became Concubine Ling's subordinate, betraying Ruyi at such a critical moment!

Rong Pei rushed over in anger and slapped Suo Xin hard, "How dare you, a traitor, bite the Queen in front of the Emperor! You have betrayed the Queen's trust and love for you, and you are such a traitor. I will teach you a lesson on behalf of the Emperor and the Queen!"

Rong Pei attacked suddenly, and Suo Xin couldn't dodge in time. She was slapped on the ground by Rong Pei and couldn't recover for a long time.

The emperor and others were shocked. Yan Wan hurriedly asked, "惢心? Eunuch Li Yu, please call the imperial physician!"

Li Yu hurriedly helped惢心 up and let Jiang Yubin, who was outside the door, in.

The emperor shouted angrily, "How dare you! Jinzhong, arrest this dog slave Rong Pei for me!"

Originally, everything was under the control of Yanwan Jinzhong, and Jinzhong had been serving beside the emperor and watching the fun. Unexpectedly, Rong Pei, this crazy woman, actually beat people in front of the emperor!

Jinzhong grabbed Rong Pei, who was about to slap惢心 a few more times, and forced her to kneel on the ground.

Ruyi and Hai Lan were once again grateful for Rong Pei's loyalty, and lamented that if there were a few more servants as loyal to their masters as Rong Pei in the palace, they would have much less worries.

Ruyi did not think there was anything wrong with Rong Pei's behavior, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Rong Pei did it all for me, Your Majesty, please let her go."

The emperor said, "This little dog slave committed a crime right in front of me. Do you think I should let her go?"

Ruyi said, "Your Majesty, Rong Pei is my maid in charge. It is her duty to discipline the maids in the palace."

Yan Wan said: "It is indeed Rong Pei's duty to discipline the palace maids, but Suo Xin has already left the palace and is no longer under her charge. Besides, Suo Xin was once your head maid, so what right does Rong Pei have to discipline her? Moreover, Rong Pei disturbed the emperor and slapped a lady in front of him, which is a great rebellion!"

Ruyi looked at Yanwan and brought up her identity as the queen, "I am the queen, it is not your turn to make decisions in the harem! Jinzhong, release the person to me!"

The more Rong Pei struggled, the stronger Jinzhong used, causing Rong Pei to scream in pain.

Jinzhong smiled and said, "I am the emperor's servant, so I only listen to the emperor!"

The emperor said angrily, "It's true that you are the queen, but you don't have the final say in the harem! I have long given Yan Wan the power to assist in managing the six palaces, and Yan Wan can ask about all matters in the harem! Only Rong Pei, a dog slave, can discipline the palace maids, and the head maid of Yongshou Palace can also discipline the palace maids, but when have you ever heard of Chun Chan in Yan Wan's palace beating someone?!"

Ruyi pointed at Yanwan and said aggrievedly, "Your Majesty is comparing Concubine Ling to me?"

The emperor said, "Yan Wan is gentle and kind to her subordinates. Who in the palace doesn't praise her? Look at you. The harem under your management is in a mess. Rong Pei in your palace is beating people up like a madman!"

The emperor and the empress quarreled, and everyone except Yan Wan was so scared that they knelt on the ground.

Ruyi said angrily, "I have been diligently managing the harem for Your Majesty for so many years, but this is how Your Majesty evaluates me? If Your Majesty thinks I am so unbearable, why did you force me to become the queen?"

"Over the years, the Emperor has been bewitched by Concubine Ling and has become increasingly distant from me. Now that I want to discipline my maid, does that mean I am in the Emperor's way?!"

"Besides, wasn't it the Emperor who told me to discipline the palace maids that I stopped Suo Xin from coming to the palace to pay my respects? What exactly does the Emperor want me to do to satisfy him?!"

The emperor was really pissed off by Ruyi. "I was clearly referring to Rong Pei, but you couldn't bear to punish her, so you put the blame on惢心 and now you're blaming me?"

Ling Yunche saw that he had caused discord between the Emperor and the Empress, and was afraid that Ruyi would be punished by the Emperor, so he quickly apologized, "Your Majesty, please calm down. This is all my fault! I accepted this pair of shoes because I thought it was done by惢心. It has nothing to do with the Empress. Please understand!"

Seeing that Ling Yunche took the initiative to push the blame onto惢心, Hai Lan hurriedly said, "There were only three of them present at the time, and惢心's confession alone was not valid."

"Your Majesty, it must be that Suo Xin was resentful because the Empress did not allow her to enter the palace to pay respects to the Empress, so she deliberately spoke nonsense in front of Your Majesty in order to cause Your Majesty to misunderstand the Empress. Now, Ling Yunche has told the truth, please Your Majesty understand!"

Li Yu and Jiang Yebi absolutely believed in惢心. They were extremely angry when they saw Ling Yunche and Hai Lan put the blame on惢心 without hesitation in order to exonerate Ruyi.

Rong Pei's slap completely woke惢心 up and made her see clearly what kind of people Ruyi and the others are.

Suo Xin stood up and turned her back to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to ask the Empress and Concubine Yu, please allow me to do so!"

The emperor said: "Yes!"

With the slap mark on her face, Suo Xin looked at Ruyi with burning eyes and asked, "Excuse me, Queen, have I ever done anything to betray my master? Have I ever bullied others by taking advantage of my power in front of outsiders and caused any trouble for you, Queen?"

Ruyi Hailan thought about it carefully and realized that she had not. "In the past, you were devoted to me. In order to prove my innocence, you were willing to go to the Ministry of Punishment and have your leg broken. But now you have been deceived by the little favors of Concubine Ling, and you speak for her and oppose me everywhere. How can I not be heartbroken?!"

Ruyi meant that it was not enough for her to break a leg for her, but she had to sacrifice her life for her loyalty, right? She had to frame Concubine Ling without any reason for Ruyi, right?

惢心 said, "You, Queen, you also said that in order to prove your innocence, I was willing to go to the Ministry of Punishment and have my leg broken. At that time, my only wish was to marry Jiang Yubin, but I don't know why the Emperor wanted to issue an order to grant me and Lord Ling a marriage."

"Jiang Yubin and I begged you to go to the emperor and take back your decision, and you agreed but suddenly changed your mind. I had no choice but to ask for help from Concubine Ling, and not long after, the emperor issued an edict to grant us marriage. On the day of our wedding, Concubine Ling even added some makeup for me. Shouldn't we remember this kindness?"

"When I was preparing for your coronation ceremony, Concubine Ling was accused of usurping power by Rong Pei just because she showed concern for me. I almost got beaten by Rong Pei! Afterwards, you blamed me and forbade me to enter Yikun Palace to pay respects again."

"Later, because of the death of the Thirteenth Prince, you suspected that it was Concubine Ling. Jiang Yubin just spoke a fair word for Concubine Ling, but you actually put Jiang Yubin in the Ministry of Punishment! If Concubine Ling hadn't arranged it afterwards and reported it to the emperor, would Jiang Yubin have been able to get out of the Ministry of Punishment alive?"

"I don't hate you for these things, nor have I done anything for Concubine Ling because I am grateful for her kindness. But what about you? I just told you the truth, but you denied all my efforts and threw all the dirty water on me!"

"You think I have changed, you feel disappointed? I am the one who is truly disappointed!"
