Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem

"Yes. It is said that during the morning court session the day before yesterday, one of Huipin's father Gao Bin's capable subordinates made a mistake. It was a small matter, but the emperor got angry.

Not only did she severely reprimand Gao Bin in front of all the civil and military officials, she also accused him of not being strict with his subordinates and being proud of his achievements." Su Lujun said casually while cutting the cloth.

"No wonder the emperor hasn't come to the harem these days. He must be angry with Concubine Hui. Concubine Hui has been proud for so many years. How could she tolerate a newly promoted little concubine snatching her position as the favorite concubine?" Ruyi echoed.

"If you ask me, Huipin is just an impatient person. Just as Meidai had won the emperor's favor, she couldn't wait to slap Meidai in the face. Isn't this a slap in the emperor's face? No wonder the emperor is angry." Su Lujun sneered.

"What a pity! It has caused us so much trouble. The emperor did not come to the harem, and Yongzhang insisted on seeing the emperor. This has been bothering me these past few days. I had no choice but to take him out to relax and bother you two."

Hai Lan looked at Yong Zhang who was playing happily with the palace maids and said enviously, "Sister Chunpin has such troubles, and all the concubines in the palace are vying to have them. The Third Prince is lively and healthy, and it makes people happy just to see him."

Su Lujun's smile deepened, "Empress Xian and Concubine Hai are still young, and they will naturally have their own children in the future.

I heard that Huipin was very panicked when she learned that her father was scolded. Two days ago, she hurriedly searched outside the palace for a pot of daffodils called Jinzhan Yintai and sent it over.

The flower was not only rare, but also extremely beautiful when in full bloom. Mei was overjoyed and placed it in the most conspicuous place in the bedroom.

"Golden cups and silver tables?" Hai Lan's eyes were full of curiosity.

"Yes. It is said that the golden cup and silver table were purchased by Huipin's mother's family with great effort and at a high price.

Even the greenhouse has never cultivated daffodils of that quality. It seems that Huipin really regrets slapping Mei's face that day." Su Lujun said.

"All the maids in the palace know that they don't hit the maids in the face. But that day, I saw Huipin was so angry that I sent Shuangxi and the maids to beat Meicon to the ground. The beating was so severe that I am still terrified every time I think about it."

While embroidering the pattern, Hai Lan sighed with Su Lujun, "I didn't expect that Huipin, who was so domineering back then, would now have to bow down to a concubine. How ironic."

Suo Xin came in and announced, "Master, Li Yu from the emperor's side is here."

Ruyi put down the cloth in her hand and nodded softly, "Please come in."

Li Yu stood in the corridor, shook off the snow and wind, and then walked into the house. "Your servant greets the Empress Xian, the Concubine Chun, and the Noble Lady Hai."

"Get up. It's cold and snowy, you must have had a hard time on the road. Suo Xin, go and bring Eunuch Li a cup of hot tea."

惢心 responded and retreated.

Li Yu thanked Ruyi and said, "According to the order of the Emperor and the Empress, tell Concubine Xian and Lady Hai to get up immediately and go to the Yangxin Palace."

"The emperor called us to the Yangxin Palace so anxiously, is there something important?" Ruyi was a little confused.

Li Yu took a sip of the hot tea brought by惢心 and whispered to Ruyi, "I don't know. It's just that Concubine Mei has been crying in the palace. I think Concubine Hui will also go to the Yangxin Palace in a while."

Ruyi and Hailan looked at each other, their eyes full of understanding.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, I heard the intermittent crying of a woman inside.

Ruyi and Hailan walked in and saw the emperor and Fucha Langya sitting on the couch.

Sitting in front of him was Bai Ruiji, who was sobbing softly. Although she was still wearing the pink warm satin she wore that day, the pearl flowers on her hair were much less, and her face was covered with a white veil, as if she was hiding something.

"Your servant (concubine) pays respects to the Emperor and the Empress." Ruyi and Hailan saluted respectfully.

"Everyone, please stand up. Wang Qin, please take a seat."

Ruyi and Hailan sat on one side of the emperor, while Bai Ruiji sat on the side of the empress Fucha Langya.

"I pay my respects to the Empress Xian and the Noble Lady Hai. My two good sisters, please help me. Otherwise... otherwise I won't be able to survive... wuwuwu..."

Before Bai Ruiji could finish her words, she started crying again, leaving Ruyi and Hailan confused.

"Miss Mei, what exactly happened?" Ruyi asked.

Bai Ruiji slowly took off her veil.

The cheek that was originally swollen after being slapped by Huipin was now ulcerated and even faintly black, as if it had been poisoned.

Ruyi was so frightened that she covered her chest, and Hailan exclaimed unconsciously, "Mei promised you that your face...it was obviously not like this when I saw you before."

Bai Ruiji's tears rolled down her cheeks as she said tearfully, "Yes, I also want to know the reason. Why is my face disfigured?

Doctor Qi is a skilled doctor, and Doctor Xu was the Queen's personal doctor. How come two highly skilled doctors are treating my face, but it's getting worse!"

Bai Ruiji stared at Fu Cha Langya, as if she wanted to stare a hole into her.

Fu Cha Langya felt a little uneasy under Bai Ruiji's gaze, so she quickly asked someone to call in Imperial Physician Qi and Imperial Physician Xu.

"My two doctors, Miss Mei's cheeks are red, swollen and ulcerated. What's going on?"

The two imperial doctors carefully observed the scars on Bai Ruiji's face, and then took out the ointment that Su Lian had given to Bai Ruiji and smelled it again and again.

After the two of them discussed in a low voice, the older Doctor Qi spoke up, "To answer your Majesty and Empress, the scars on Concubine Mei's face were caused by external forces that caused the redness, swelling and ulceration.

This ointment is actually very good stuff. The motherwort, ephedra and white aconite in it are all good medicines for removing swelling and removing blood stasis. It only takes three days to get better.

It's just that Mei's wound was broken and contaminated with some pollen. The combination of the two caused a conflict between the medicinal properties, so Mei's face was poisoned."

"Poisoned?" Bai Ruiji's eyes widened, she covered her cheeks, and fell into a chair. She looked distraught.

"Why did Mei Dan get contaminated with pollen out of nowhere?"

Ruyi asked curiously, "Miss Mei, did you get contaminated by the pollen of plum blossoms when we went to the Imperial Garden together a few days ago?"

Bai Ruiji wasn't quite sure and didn't say anything for a long time.

However, Su Yun beside Bai Ruiji seemed to have realized something, and suddenly knelt down and said, "Master, I remember your wound worsened about two days ago.

Yonghe Palace has never liked to place flowers and plants. But that day Huipin sent a pot of golden marigolds and silver tables, and you really liked it, so I made an exception and placed it in the bedroom. I remember that you seemed to have touched the flowers with your hands..."

Su Yun's voice became smaller and smaller, but everyone present could hear it clearly.
