Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem

Chapter 23 A Ruo is punished

After Jin Yuyan left, Fu Cha Langya was alone, staring out the window for a long time.

The sunlight flows slowly through the cloud-patterned veil that looks like light smoke and flowing water, and the rich fragrance of floating clouds in the air is elusive.

Only the bright green jadeite beads in Fu Cha Langya's hands made crisp sounds of collision from time to time.

Seeing this, Su Lian suggested that Fu Cha Langya go for a walk in the yard to relax.

When Fu Cha Langya went out, she happened to meet Wang Qin who came to Changchun Palace to deliver medicinal herbs.

Wang Qin led Fu Cha Langya aside, knelt down and begged for mercy, expressing his love for Lian Xin and his loyalty to Fu Cha Langya.

Wang Qin even guaranteed with his life that if he won Lianxin, he would tell Fu Cha Langya everything about the emperor without hiding anything.

With all this encouragement, Fu Cha Langya finally couldn't help but feel moved.

In the Yanxi Palace, Ruyi was watching a play and eating cakes with the emperor.

Ruyi specially wore a white jade emerald-inlaid flat hairpin on her head today, and inserted a few water-red rose silk hairpins. Without the embellishment of the tassel hairpin, she looked even more refreshing and lovely.

Leaning in the emperor's arms, Ruyi looked up at him and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty comes to see me every day. If the other sisters knew about this, they would probably be jealous again."

"You are your first child and you are weak. I saw that you only had half a bowl of porridge for lunch, and even only ate half a piece of your favorite white jade frost cake. I feel sorry for you because you have such a poor appetite.

So, I will stay here with you and urge you to eat more, so that our precious prince won't be hungry. You are not allowed to drive me away, understand?" The emperor gently tapped Ruyi's nose and said lovingly.

Ruyi smiled and nodded, saying casually, "I heard that Yonghuang is very happy with Huipin.

Huipin loved him, and Yonghuang ate delicacies from land and sea every day, and grew taller and fatter. It can be seen that the emperor entrusted Yonghuang to the right adoptive mother. "

Speaking of Yonghuang, the emperor's face darkened slightly. "Hui Concubine has been childless for many years, so she can't help but dote on Yonghuang. But although Yonghuang is much healthier, he is not as diligent in his studies as before.

The last time I went to Xiefang Palace, I saw Yonghuang writing, and he had regressed a lot compared to before. When I asked him about his homework, Yonghuang was even more hesitant. It really disappointed me."

"Hui Fei has just had a child, so it's only natural for her to pamper the child a little more.

The eldest prince is sensible and intelligent. I think after he gets over the excitement and resumes his studies, he will still be the eldest son that the emperor is proud of." Ruyi said gently.

The emperor looked at the now gentle and decent Ruyi and couldn't help but sigh, "Ruyi, since you got pregnant, your temper has become much gentler than before.

I know that Huipin was sarcastic in the past and always spoke disrespectfully to you. I didn't expect that you would still speak for her without bearing past grudges. You are truly virtuous. "

Ruyi sneered in her heart. When a woman no longer loves and has given up, it is easy for her to be virtuous, modest and generous.

Ruyi shook her head and said, "Huipin comes from a distinguished family and is loved by her parents, so it's inevitable that she is a bit spoiled.

My mother's family is in decline, so it is only right that I give her more. I am not a virtuous person, but I just don't want to embarrass His Majesty."

Hearing this, the emperor looked at Ruyi with a little more heartache in his eyes, "Ruyi, it's time to mention your mother's family.

The dam in Huaiyin was proposed by your father and he personally supervised its construction. It was built very well. It prevented floods and brought peace to the people. It was a great use of the money sent by the court.

Your father is a useful talent who can manage affairs and control floods. I remember that your father has been in the position of fourth-rank assistant commander for many years. How about giving him a third-rank assistant commander position?"

Ruyi quickly stood up and knelt down, "My father is old, I'm afraid he can't do the job.

Your Majesty, you don’t have to promote my father for me. Please take back your order.”

The emperor helped Ruyi up with both hands, but he did not agree with Ruyi's statement, "Your father works hard and has talent. This is what he deserves. Ruyi, you don't have to be so nervous and don't hurt yourself."

Ruyi thanked the emperor for his grace and then let it go.

The tea on the table had gone cold. Ruyi called A Ruo over, but there was no response.

Suo Xin hurriedly ran out from the small kitchen, ready to take the teapot away and replace it.

Ruyi frowned and asked, "惢心, why are you the only one running around? Where is A'ruo?"

Suo Xin immediately knelt down to apologize, "Sister A Ruo...she...she is not feeling well...she is going to rest..."

"Nonsense!" The emperor slammed the table and said sternly, "The master is pregnant, but the maidservant around her pretends to be sick and lazy. What's the logic behind this?

Li Yu, go find someone to bring Ah Ruo to me. I want to see what kind of lazy girl is this who dares to neglect her master like this!"

Soon, Ah Ruo was brought up, along with Jin Zhong, the third-rank eunuch from the Yangxin Palace.

Li Yu received the emperor's instruction and asked, "Miss A Ruo, Empress Xian asked you to serve her, but you were chatting and laughing with others in the imperial garden. What's the reason for this?"

Ah Ruo was not afraid when she heard this. She answered confidently, "It is not appropriate for Empress Xian to use spices while she is pregnant. I was thinking of picking some flowers for you to decorate the bedroom."

"Oh? Then why didn't Empress Xian know where you went?" Li Yu continued to ask.

"That's because... because I wanted to give my master a surprise!" Ah Ruo defended herself without realizing she had done anything wrong.

"If you want to give Empress Xian a surprise, then why are you arguing with Jinzhong in the corner of the Imperial Garden?" Li Yu scolded harshly.

Ah Ruo shuddered violently, her eyes rolled, and she quickly said, "It was Concubine Xian, it was Concubine Xian who sent this servant.

The purpose is to find out more from Jinzhong, who is beside the emperor, so as to find out the emperor's heart. Otherwise, how dare I..."

"This is nonsense!" The emperor laughed in anger, "Empress Xian has been with me all this time, and I still need you, a servant, to find out my emperor's wishes from the third-class eunuchs around me? This is nonsense!

She is trying to bite Concubine Xian, she doesn't know how to live or die, I think she is just a tough talker. Come, slap this slave's mouth hard, until she tells the truth!

If you still refuse to tell me, I will send you to the Ministry of Punishment! I will go through all 72 punishments in the Ministry of Punishment one by one, and I will not believe that you will not tell the truth!"

The emperor had high hopes for the baby in Ruyi's belly. After all, this was the first child he and his beloved had.

Therefore, the emperor would never tolerate anyone slandering or neglecting Ruyi, let alone the possibility that the child in Ruyi's belly would be harmed.

Ruyi spoke up at the right time to persuade him, "Your Majesty, don't be angry yet. Your health is the most important thing. Maybe there is another hidden story behind this matter?

Jinzhong, I want to ask you, what exactly did A Ruo want to talk to you about? Answer honestly, and I may be able to save your life."
