The Queen Mother was also very surprised when she learned about this. She had never thought that Gao Xiyue would do such a thing.

"This is a good thing, and the imperial concubine is thoughtful. Of course I agree!" The empress dowager thought about it carefully and made the decision. She also felt that the atmosphere inside and outside the palace had been too depressing these days because of Jinchuan's affairs. If Gao Xiyue's method could be used, on the one hand it would liven up the atmosphere, and on the other hand it would also have the benefits that the queen mentioned.

"If the Empress Dowager agrees, I won't worry about it. Otherwise, I'm worried that the Imperial Concubine will make this happen, and some of the concubines will find it inappropriate."

The Queen Mother knew who Rong Yin was talking about by "individual concubines" in an instant, and her face darkened, "Don't worry, no one dares to question this matter. Just let the imperial concubine do it boldly, I will support her."

The Empress Dowager knew that the Empress was unwilling to confront Ruyi. After all, the Emperor was confused. Although he would stand on the Empress' side for the overall situation, it would inevitably affect the Emperor's attitude if it happened too often.

She was also unwilling to get involved in such matters, but in the matter of Hengti, she received great favor from the Queen, and she also saw more deeply that Ruyi was a troublemaker.

She always says she is noble and won't fight for anything, but she waits for others to hand everything to her, and then refuses it a few times before accepting it reluctantly.

She had long been fed up with it, but the emperor just liked her that way. If Ruyi dared to act like a demon again this time, she would definitely not let her off easily!

Seeing that the matter was settled, Rong Yin did not stay any longer and left promptly.

"I will not bother you any more, Madam Empress. I hope you take good care of yourself."

Bow politely and leave.

The Queen Mother sat there and looked at Rong Yin's back for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh, "Fujia, this is the Queen of the Qing Dynasty that I personally selected."

Aunt Fujia was also very emotional, "The Queen Mother's vision is not bad, the Queen is a good one."

The Queen Mother couldn't tell whether she was relieved or anxious. "Our Queen's love is not with the Emperor, so she has always been clear. Look at how she has managed the harem over the years. The princes and princesses have all grown up healthily. The concubines also respect and approve of her, except for Ruyi."

Fujia knew that the Queen Mother was satisfied with the Queen's dedication to her duties, and was also anxious that the Queen would not take action to deal with Ulanara, but she felt that the Queen was very smart and did not dirty her hands, nor was she too sanctimonious.

But seeing how worried the Queen Mother was, she could only persuade her indirectly, "Don't be too anxious. Although the Queen is steady and decent, there are still many things she needs your guidance. After all, she is your biological daughter-in-law."

"Yes, she and I are on the same side."

Rongyin had finally come out for a walk, and was not in a hurry to go back.

Yanwan followed Xiyue in full swing to prepare, and thinking that it would take a while to finish, she simply went to the Imperial Garden alone.

It would have been a good thing I didn't go. As soon as I got there, I saw Ruyi and Yihuan walking arm in arm in the Imperial Garden. They were admiring the flowers in the Imperial Garden with smiles on their faces and seemed to be chatting about something.

The smile on Ruyi's face froze for a moment when she saw her, and Rongyin did not miss her fleeting glance of contempt.

Ruyi's psychological activities are very rich. She has always believed that there is a "king-not-meeting" relationship between her and Fucha. However, compared with herself, Fucha's only advantage is that she was suppressed by the Ruyi sword back then.

That's it.

Now Fucha actually came over to greet her. Is this a provocation?

Rongyin’s psychological activity is very simple. Is Concubine Xian... rolling her eyes at her?

"Princess Xian, do you have anything to say to me?"

In fact, Rong Yin still had some expectations in her heart. After all, the concubines and brothers in the harem in her previous life were all ruthless characters. They could either win the emperor's heart unconditionally or stab him in the back in secret.

Ruyi was able to survive here until the end, which showed that she had some ability.

"I just want to ask the Queen, which flower in the harem do you think is the most beautiful?"

Where did he get the courage from? What he said now was so boring, and the question he asked was so stupid.

Rong Yin knew what the other party was going to say just by hearing this sentence. He couldn't be trying to use Peony as a comparison, and then compare the two of them in terms of their status, or even bring up the matter of who got the Ruyi in the first place during the talent show.

But the person was already standing here, so there was no reason for Rong Yin to just turn around and run away. Moreover, if she turned around and ran away at this time, she would be truly disgraced.

"The flowers in the harem were all created with great effort by the gardeners. No matter what flower it is, it looks good to me. If I were to analyze which flower is my favorite, it would probably be the peony."

As a queen, there should be no problem in liking the king of flowers. And if I don't answer like that, I'm afraid that this Ulanara in front of me will do something weird.

"Your Majesty, you like the king of flowers. You really have a noble taste. But I am different. My favorite is plum blossoms. Plum blossoms bloom in winter and do not gather together like other flowers to compete for beauty."

Rong Yin's mentality had calmed down at this time, and she was more or less certain that the woman in front of her could not pose any threat to her no matter when or from what angle. After all, this woman did not look like a smart person.

"is it?"

Rong Yin simply agreed, hoping that this boring conversation could end soon.

"Plum blossoms live in the cold winter. Their growth environment is very harsh and they face all kinds of challenges. But when they are in full bloom, their fragrance is very obvious in the snow, even..."

When Ruyi opened her mouth to say this, she really didn't know whether she should say the rest. She had already gathered her strength and now slowly turned her head to look at Rongyin who was standing beside her.

I don't know why I suddenly felt a little guilty, but some things should be said and done, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

“Even as good as the king of flowers.”

These words were clearly a provocation, but who would have thought that the Queen Mother was not angry because of these words. Instead, she stood aside very seriously, staring at Ruyi with an unchanged expression.

Ruyi found that the other party had no intention of responding, and couldn't help feeling a little bored.

"Why is the Queen silent at this time? Do you think what I said is wrong? Or do you have other opinions? I finally got to see the Queen today, and I hope you can give me some advice."

He came here eagerly to get scolded.

"The king of flowers has been the peony since ancient times. Even if other flowers come out to compete for beauty, there is nothing they can do to compete. Flowers that bloom in other seasons are certainly lovely and have their own style, but if that style is forcibly distorted by others, it will only become a joke."

Rongyin said a few words according to Ruyi's thoughts, which should be considered to satisfy the other party's thoughts. It was more or less enough at this time.

Ruyi didn't think there was any benefit from this communication. She sighed softly, the smile on her face became a little more weird, and she took a few steps slowly.

Ruyi wanted to take a good look at how the Empress had maintained this mask all this time. If she really knew that the Emperor only had her in his heart, how lost and uncomfortable the Empress would be.

Although Rong Yin was still standing there without moving, she was already starting to get a little nervous. Was this crazy woman going to push her into the flowers in a while?

If it were someone else, Rong Yin would naturally not be so conflicted.

But the Ulanara in front of him was so weird in her behavior and words in many cases, and not many people could understand her train of thought.

"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. As the saying goes, justice lies in the hearts of the people."

"Just because a book says that the king of flowers is the peony, it doesn't mean that the peony will always be the king of flowers. Who exactly is the king of flowers? It depends on which flower is the most conspicuous among the many flowers, and which flower can get the support of other flowers. Do you think what I said is right?"

Rong Yin smiled gently and didn't speak directly, but she was thinking about it like crazy in her mind.

What basis does Ruyi have for what she said? Is there anyone in the harem who supports him unconditionally and is even willing to challenge her for him? The answer is of course no, but at this time it seems that there may be one more person, Yihuan, who is standing aside.

"Is there anything else you want to say?"

When Ruyi heard the Queen asking her this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She finally had an outlet to vent all the grievances she had suffered in the past few days. She also wanted to take this opportunity to teach the Queen what true propriety and etiquette meant.

"I heard that the Emperor gave the Empress a hairpin a few days ago."

The news that the Queen had obtained the hairpin had spread throughout almost the entire harem, and now the noble concubine Gao beside the Queen was clamoring to go and see how exquisite the hairpin was.

When Ruyi learned about this, she only felt that Concubine Gao was extremely pitiful.

Clearly not having the emperor's love, she could only unconditionally flatter the queen in order to survive in the harem, acting like a follower.

Concubine Gao's father was a man who was more or less valued by the emperor in the previous dynasty. Concubine Gao did not think about how to maintain the reputation of the Gao family in the harem but kept trying to please the queen, which really damaged her reputation.

"Yes."

Rong Yin thought about it carefully and it seemed that the emperor had developed the habit of sending gifts to Changchun Palace since some time ago. Perhaps it was because he felt that he was being cold to the empress. After all, most of the time, she either went to Yiku Palace, stayed in the imperial study, or went to the rooms of other young and beautiful concubines.

But Rongyin never cared.

She is now perfectly maintaining the mentality of a worker, but has never given her extra sincerity to anyone. The few sincere hearts she has given to her are given to a few girls in the harem and her own children. As for other people, she always respects them if she can, and if she cannot respect them, she will find ways to get rid of them.

"Your Majesty, when I heard that you had obtained the hairpin, I was so happy that I even asked the Emperor to allow me to come to your place to see it."

The more I hear these words, the more I feel like a green tea. If you really want to watch it properly, you can just come to me directly. Why would you have to go around in circles and talk to the emperor? Isn't this just to make the emperor think that I am an ungrateful person?

Or did she want the emperor to think that she, the queen, was not decent at all and was unwilling to share even a hairpin with her sisters in the harem?

Unexpectedly, what she heard next made Rong Yin feel even more exploded.

"I would like to apologize to the Empress for this matter. The Emperor regretted it very much after knowing that I particularly liked the hairpin. He has said in front of me more than once that if he knew that I liked it so much, he would not have given the hairpin directly to the Empress."

"I will definitely give it to you first. Later, in order to appease me, the emperor even ordered someone to make a plum blossom hairpin. It is because he knows that I like plum blossoms that he is willing to keep the scene of plum blossoms for me."

Rong Yin sighed slightly. If she was more or less entangled just now, she was really pitiful now.

A hairpin could actually make him so happy that he even came to show off in front of him.

"So what do you want to say?" Rong Yin didn't feel anything before, but now she felt that if she didn't follow his words and continued to ask further questions, she might really waste Ruyi's feelings for her.

Ruyi was very satisfied with the Queen's behavior. All she had to do at this time was to speak out. Every word would provoke the Queen, making her mind confused and suspicious of the Emperor.

As long as they live in the harem with resentment, few women will not go crazy, let alone the queen who loves the emperor deeply.

"So I want to apologize to the Queen for this matter. Although the Emperor sincerely wanted to give the Ruyi to me, I have always been respectful to you since I entered the mansion and have never had any second thoughts."

"I only hope that the Queen can forget what happened as soon as possible and assist the Emperor in the harem."

"And I would like to take this opportunity to tell you that the Empress of the Qing Dynasty will always be yours, but I must occupy the most important position in the Emperor's heart."

Ruyi took a deep breath and felt that what she had just said was really too difficult. Even if the Queen couldn't get angry on the spot after hearing it, she would feel uncomfortable when she went back.

After all, the emperor's action at that time not only slapped the queen's face, but also slapped the face of the current Fucha family, so he has now handed over all his cards, and it depends on how to proceed next.

Yihuan stood aside and looked at Ruyi with admiration.

In addition to admiration, I also feel a bit of envy in my heart.

After completely gaining the emperor's love, you can become more confident.

Ruyi is now the best representative.

Rong Yin frowned slowly. There could only be one Queen in the Qing Dynasty, and she was not the one who bestowed the position of Queen on her. Why did she look as if it was her right to give up the position?

Moreover, every word he said in the Imperial Garden at this time would be a great disrespect.

"Do you want me to thank you, or do you want to say these words to make me angry, so that I will get someone to capture you and slap you in the face?"

Rongyin slowly took a few steps forward and whispered slightly next to Ruyi's ear.

She really didn't understand why Fu Cha Langya was forced to die early by such a person in her previous life.

Moreover, this person really looks stupid, even more stupid than one would imagine.

Ruyi raised her lips slightly. She was never afraid of being targeted, and the only thing she relied on to live till now was the emperor's love.

"No matter what the Queen wants to do, I will not have any intention of refutation. The most important thing is that I know that the Emperor's heart is always with me, and that is enough."

What a harsh word.

"If you know everything, then stay for a while and then go back. Stay in your palace and don't embarrass yourself again. Fortunately, I met you today. If I met someone else..."

Rong Yin really had no way to stay any longer now, and all she wanted was to return to Changchun Palace and rest as soon as possible.

Ruyi really couldn't understand why the Queen could remain calm after hearing such a speech. Shouldn't she be furious and even punish herself? Then she could use this injury as an excuse to go to the Emperor...

Rong Yin is now simply troubled by the stupidity of the Forbidden City.

"Take good care of yourself here, live longer, and live a long life with your emperor. This way, you will never be heartbroken when you see him again."

Rongyin felt not only physically tired, but also mentally exhausted, and she didn't know how old she was.

"Also, there are some things I want to remind you. No matter how much the emperor wanted to hand over the Ruyi to you, I am now the empress of the Qing Dynasty. If you don't understand and live honestly in the palace, I can make sure that you will never see the emperor again in your life, and I can also make sure that the emperor will never remember who you are for the rest of his life."

Rong Yin would never take advantage of others with words, nor would she torture the other party with particularly terrible punishments. Once she took action, she would definitely compete with the other party with the thing that the other party cared about most.

Ruyi shut up instantly.
