Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem

After returning to the palace, Concubine Cheng swept the remaining white plums on the table to the ground, sat at the table sullenly with a cold look in her eyes.

Yan Cao knew why Concubine Cheng was angry, so she could only comfort her, "My dear, you have been promoted to the position of Concubine. Fortunately, our plan today was not in vain.

Besides, you were made a princess without any children.

In the whole palace, apart from Consort Hui who has been with the Emperor since he was in the palace, you are the only one who has enjoyed this honor. It can be seen that the Emperor treats you very well after all."

Having said that, only Concubine Cheng herself can understand the bitterness and shame behind this honor.

"Yancao, look at the emperor's behavior tonight, it's obvious that he doesn't even intend to give me a consecration ceremony.

I spent so much time and effort practicing this dance of walking on snow to find plum blossoms without telling anyone, but when it came to sleeping with the emperor, he didn't take me into consideration at all.

I was born into the Fucha clan and have been a noble lady since childhood. I have never suffered such humiliation.

Today, I am being mocked by those lowly people who are far inferior to me. How can I tolerate this?"

What Concubine Cheng said was a bit too fussy.

Li Da Ying, who will serve you in the emperor's bed tonight, was recommended by the empress dowager herself, so the emperor must at least give her some face.

All I can say is that Concubine Cheng had bad luck. She had worked so hard to prepare for so long, but she had to run into this situation today.

But if Concubine Cheng had to give up dancing at the banquet, she was unwilling to do so. She had no choice but to swallow her anger.

After calming down for a while, Concubine Cheng wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and felt much calmer.

"Never mind, at least I have been granted the title of consort, which is also a happy event.

There will be no shortage of such things as sleeping with you in the future, so there is no need for me to rush at this moment."

Seeing that Concubine Cheng had figured it out herself, Yan Cao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since Qin Sang betrayed her master and followed Jingse to marry in Mongolia, Concubine Cheng has become more and more impatient.

Sometimes Yancao would say a few more words of advice and get scolded instead.

Over time, Yancao learned not to talk too much. After all, every time, Concubine Cheng would convince herself like today.

The reason why Concubine Cheng was made a concubine was just because the Emperor was wary of the Empress Dowager and wanted to rebel against her, so he gave her the title of concubine by chance.

Concubine Cheng herself was well aware of how valuable the position of a concubine was.

But in the final analysis, apart from the temporary ridicule from others, Concubine Cheng did not completely gain nothing.

The emperor favored Li Ying for several days in a row, promoted her to be a concubine, and then favored Rou Ying.

However, Rou Da Ying had a gentle personality and was not as charming as Li Changzai, so the emperor had no intention of promoting her.

However, Li Changzai kept pestering the emperor, saying that if there was to be no grudges between sisters, they must be equal, and she used roundabout ways to get a position of Changzai on behalf of Rou.

The emperor was feeling quite excited about the new situation and thought it was just a position of a concubine, so he gave it to her.

The emperor lingered for a while on this pair of Jiangnan sisters.

When Concubine Cheng went to sleep with the emperor, she clearly felt that the emperor was tired of her. He was afraid that he felt that she was not as pleasing and considerate as the beauty from Jiangnan.

A sense of crisis suddenly arose in Concubine Cheng, and in a panic, she began to send people to search among the people for the secret recipe for conceiving a child.

When Ruyi got the news, she just gently put down the teacup in her hand and turned her eyes to the dozens of brocades stacked layer by layer on the table.

Rong Pei was carefully checking whether each piece of satin was missing or damaged.

Liuying held the book in one hand and counted with the other, saying crisply, "Your Majesty, these are specially presented to us by the Jiangning Weaving Factory.

These pieces are brocade with shark pattern and golden brocade, which were specially imitated by Jiangning Weaving Factory based on "The Legend of Feiyan".

It is said to be the favorite of the two sisters Feiyan and Hede, who were favored by the country during the reign of Emperor Cheng of Han.

The rest are called miscellaneous pearl brocades. Although not as valuable as the mermaid pattern brocade, they are also worth a fortune.

It requires the best weavers in Suzhou to pick out fine, bright and round rice beads and embroider them one by one according to the woven patterns.

It looks like a jeweled and luxurious garment, but it is also soft and light, and does not look cumbersome or bulky at all when worn on the body."

Ruyi nodded slightly, "It is indeed a good thing.

Speaking of Feiyan and Hede, it reminds me of Rou Changzai and Li Changzai. They are both favored and sisters, so they are very suitable for this Jiao Wen Wan Jin Jin.

The two of them have made great contributions in serving the emperor and deserve to be rewarded.

As for the various pearl brocades, you can pick some at will and have the maids in the weaving house deliver them to the ladies’ palaces.

As for the quantity, color, and so on, you can decide for yourself. Remember to send the snow-blue horse with hidden bamboo pattern to Concubine Cheng separately."

After a pause, Ruyi sneered with deep meaning in her eyes, "Since she prefers white plum blossoms, I think she will also like this elegant and cool color."

Liuying understood and went downstairs to make arrangements immediately.

A few days later, Concubine Rou and Concubine Li both fainted suddenly while performing a dance for the Emperor in Shouxin Palace.

When Ruyi heard the news, she just frowned slightly, then rushed over with Rong Pei.

The emperor was sitting on the side, drinking tea with an impatient look on his face. Ruyi greeted him as usual, but the emperor just nodded slightly, his attitude was surprisingly cold.

Ruyi observed calmly for a while and asked, "Which imperial physician is treating the patient in there now?"

Li Yu bowed in response and announced the names of several young imperial physicians.

Ruyi was a little confused, "Why don't you call Dr. Jiang? His medical skills are the best among the accompanying doctors this time."

Li Yu hurriedly said, "It is precisely because of the great medical skills of Imperial Doctor Jiang that the Queen Mother was a little dizzy and uncomfortable after being blown by the lake breeze a few days ago, so she summoned Imperial Doctor Jiang to take her pulse."

Whether the Queen Mother was truly unwell remained to be discussed, but the fact that the Queen Mother and Rou and Li often had accidents at the same time made Ruyi have to be alert.

Sure enough, Rong Pei went in and asked around, and then replied, "Rou Changzai and Li Changzai's exposed arms are covered with tiny red blisters.

The imperial physician said that it seemed that there was something dirty on the clothes that caused it..."

Rong Pei looked up at Ruyi, then continued carefully, "The styles of the dresses the two young ladies are wearing seem to be imitations of the Feiyan and Hede of the Han Dynasty, and even the material of the clothes is the mermaid pattern brocade..."

A hint of mockery appeared at the corner of Ruyi's lips.

It turns out he was waiting for me here.

Fear flashed in Ruyi's eyes, and she knelt down quickly, humbly saying to the emperor, "This mermaid pattern is worth a million gold coins.

After the Emperor gave it to me, I did not keep it because of its bright color. Instead, I gave it all to Concubine Rou and Concubine Li. "

The emperor's face still didn't look good.

He originally thought that after becoming the legal wife, Ruyi would be magnanimous and would no longer be petty, jealous and calculating as before.

But now, the emperor's new favorite's face was damaged by the brocade gifted by Ruyi, which made the emperor wonder if Ruyi couldn't tolerate him favoring others...

Ruyi caught a glimpse of the emperor's curled lips and sneered in her heart.
