The Apo Master dressed up as Concubine Ling and killed the Ruyi sisters
Chapter 59 Concubine Jia is punished
Meipin's funeral has been completed, and Yihuan has temporarily won the fight for the Tenth Prince.
On this day, the concubines came to pay their respects to the Queen as per custom.
Although Ruyi didn't know why Concubine Mei wanted to harm Concubine Qing, she felt that Concubine Mei was a pitiful person. Since she was already dead, they were sisters after all, so she should hold a ritual to help her soul rest in peace.
Ruyi said: "Although Meipin made mistakes, she has served the emperor for many years after all. I intend to perform a ritual for Meipin and her child."
Ever since Concubine Qing entered the palace, she has been on good terms with Concubine Mei because of the Empress Dowager.
She never expected that Concubine Mei would be so cruel to her. Although others did not understand the Queen's actions, they did not express any opinions.
But Concubine Qing would never have the chance to have children in her life, and she had long hated Concubine Mei.
Concubine Qing said in hatred, "Concubine Mei killed me for no reason. This vicious woman, the Queen wants to pray for her soul to rest in peace? In my opinion, she deserves to go to hell!"
Ruyi advised, "I know you were hurt, but you had a good relationship with Concubine Mei, so maybe she didn't mean to hurt you. She's already dead, so don't bother with her."
Although Yanwan disagreed with Ruyi's words that Concubine Qing should "repay evil with kindness", it was not Concubine Mei's intention to drug Concubine Qing, which indirectly saved Concubine Qing's life and favor.
Yan Wan nodded and said, "I agree to hold a ritual for Meipin. It is really pitiful that Meipin's child was killed by someone. I hope this ritual can reunite Meipin and her child in the underworld."
Concubine Jia had always had doubts in her heart, so she sent people to inquire, and found out that the only person Concubine Mei met on the day she met the emperor was Concubine Ling.
Concubine Jia continued the conversation and asked, "Among the sisters present, only Concubine Ling had seen Concubine Mei before she was sentenced to death by the Emperor. Concubine Ling also said that Concubine Mei was pitiful. Could it be that Concubine Mei said something to you before she died?"
Yan Wan said, "Concubine Jia is joking. That day in the Yangxin Palace, I just wanted to ask the emperor for a decision on some palace affairs, so I met with Concubine Mei in the Yangxin Palace."
"But we didn't say anything, and I don't know what the emperor said to Meipin."
"I'm telling the truth when I say that Meipin is pitiful. She was pregnant for ten months and gave birth to a child, but was murdered in her womb. Meipin never even got to see her child. How can Meipin not feel resentful? How can she not hate him?"
Concubine Jia said: "Concubine Ling is very sympathetic."
Yan Wan smiled at Concubine Jia, "I just felt that all the children in the palace are pitiful."
Concubine Jia said: "Prince and Princess are of noble birth, what is there to be pitiful about?"
"It is because of his noble birth that he cannot avoid being watched. If Meipin's child had not been murdered, he would have been the first noble son since the Emperor ascended the throne!"
"The same goes for the eldest prince, Prince Duanhui, the seventh prince, and the ninth prince." Yan Wan said.
The sudden mention of several princes who died young, especially at this critical juncture when Concubine Mei died, made Concubine Jia and Concubine Yu feel uneasy.
But Yupin believed that she had done it perfectly and no one could possibly know that she was the one who put the reed flowers there. She gradually calmed down.
Concubine Jia always felt that there was something behind Yanwan's words today, and she felt guilty, so she blurted out.
"Except for Concubine Mei's child who was killed by Imperial Noble Consort Huixian, who killed the others? Crown Prince Duanhui was already ill, and the Seventh Prince was also infected with smallpox. It can only be said that they are not destined to enjoy such a good life!"
Concubine Jia's words attracted everyone's attention. Ever since Yihuan had a child, the thing she could not tolerate the most was someone trying to win favor by targeting the child.
Yi Huan asked, "What does Concubine Jia mean by this? Are you saying that Prince Duanhui and the Seventh Prince are not blessed?"
Yan Wan said, "Concubine Jia served Empress Xiaoxian for many years, but she had no sympathy for the early deaths of Crown Prince Duanhui and the Seventh Prince. This makes me really doubt that Concubine Jia's respect for Empress Xiaoxian was fake!"
Seeing Yan Wan always mentioning Empress Xiaoxian and her son, Concubine Jia felt that Yan Wan knew something. "I just said something wrong. Do you have to hold on to it? You are deliberately making things difficult for me!"
"Whether you said the wrong thing or blurted out your true feelings, only you know it in your heart," Yan Wan said.
Yi Huan also said: "Who is making things difficult for you? One must insult himself before others insult him!"
When Concubine Yu saw Concubine Ling suddenly mention Prince Duanhui, and Concubine Jia was a living target, she stood up and said to Ruyi.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Jia's words were disrespectful to Empress Xiaoxian, Crown Prince Duanhui, and the Seventh Prince. I think Concubine Jia should be punished, and the palace rules have been corrected!"
When Yan Wan mentioned this, Concubine Chun thought of Concubine Jia and Concubine Yu, who had plotted to harm her and her son at Empress Xiaoxian's funeral, causing Yonghuang to die of depression.
Concubine Chun was secretly resentful in her heart. Perhaps for psychological reasons, she always felt that Concubine Yu was trying to cover up something by considering Empress Xiaoxian and her son so much.
Concubine Chun couldn't think of a way to take revenge on Concubine Yu for a moment, but now that she could punish Concubine Jia, how could she miss this good opportunity?
With Concubine Yu taking the lead, Concubine Chun and others petitioned together, "I ask the Queen to punish Concubine Jia and correct the palace rules!"
Ruyi has been the queen for so long that she has long wanted to punish Concubine Jia to establish her authority in the harem.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Jia could endure the humiliation of having her ears pierced by Rong Pei last time. Not only did she fail to use Concubine Jia to establish her authority, but she was counterattacked by Concubine Jia and other concubines.
Ruyi has been brooding over this matter for a long time. She didn't expect that Concubine Jia would anger everyone today. This is a perfect opportunity for her to establish her authority.
Ruyi immediately put on the queen's manner and said, "Jia Fei, you were disrespectful to Empress Xiaoxian and her son, and the six palaces looked at you with disdain. If I don't punish you lightly, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the other concubines."
"I will punish you by making you kneel before the Buddhist temple every day and personally make a hundred prayer flags for Empress Xiaoxian and her son to atone for your sins!"
The concubines said: "The Queen is wise!"
Concubine Jia didn't know how things turned out like this. Why did all the concubines suddenly target her?
Two fists cannot beat four hands, Jia Fei could only accept it, and she felt more and more uneasy.
Concubine Jia was making prayer flags in front of the Buddhist temple when she suddenly felt unwell and seemed to be pregnant again.
Concubine Jia said to Li Xin, "I don't know when the Queen teamed up with Concubine Ling again. In front of all the concubines, she asked me to make prayer flags for Empress Xiaoxian. It's obvious that she is using me to establish her authority!"
"This child came at the right time, but the Queen hates me to the core and targets me everywhere. I cannot give her the opportunity to harm me."
"I will tell His Majesty when the baby in my belly is stable. I will take advantage of the time I spend making prayer flags to take good care of my baby in the Buddhist temple."
"If this baby is also a prince, I will have three princes. Let's see how the Empress, Concubine Ling and others will fight with me in the future!"
"My master is wise!" Li Xin said.
