Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem

The emperor looked at her with a frown, which frightened E Yinzhu.

How could she forget that the emperor could whitewash the matter of the cold medicine and not make a fuss about it, but she couldn't.

Not only must she not forget, she also has to show her guilt to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your reward."

Ruyi nodded, as if she felt that her attitude just now was too cold and hard, and explained to the emperor in a soft voice, "Your Majesty, I am a little drunk and my words were rude at the moment. Please forgive me."

"It's okay. You are the queen, so you can't be too soft. Only if you have both kindness and authority can you be the mother of the Qing Dynasty."

The emperor knew that Ruyi had always been gentle in nature.

The reason why he suddenly became tough this time was because he was surrounded by princes, ministers, and guests from all over the world.

In the eyes of outsiders, it would be a joke if Ruyi, a queen, was bullied by princesses and concubines.

Unfortunately, neither Jingse nor Eyinzhu have this vision.

What they didn't know was that even if Ruyi hadn't spoken back today, the emperor would not let Ruyi suffer any loss.

Over the vast grassland, the night is like silk, covering the entire sky.

The breeze, bringing the coolness of early autumn, blew through the countless flowers and plants. The grass leaves rubbed against each other, making a rustling sound, just like waves gently lapping against the coastline.

The bright moon in the sky is like a naughty child. It slowly appears from the thin clouds and quickly hides behind the next cloud.

Ruyi's cheeks were slightly flushed due to the cool night breeze, and her ears were slightly warm.

She wore Rongpei, and together with Lingzhi and Yunzhi, they slowly strolled under the holy moonlight.

On the river bank not far away, clusters of light wild flowers of various colors are swaying gently in the wind, and there is a faint and fresh floral fragrance in the air.

The river water sparkled with tiny silver lights under the shining moonlight, and the ripples sparkled, contrasting with the flowers on the shore.

Ruyi couldn't help but sit down on the shore.

"My lady, this muddy floor is not clean. Let me lay a mat for you."

Ruyi shook her head and smiled as she rejected Rong Pei's kindness. She then pulled her sleeve and asked her to sit down with her.

"It's a rare opportunity to relax outside the palace. I won't be able to see such beautiful scenery when I return to the Forbidden City. Wouldn't it be a pity if I don't personally experience this grassland now?

Rong Pei, there is no one else here, so don't stand there. Come with me."

Rong Pei couldn't resist, and no matter how much she persuaded, she finally knelt down beside Ruyi.

"Your Highness is drunk, so I have to be alert. If someone else passes by and sees us being so unruly, it will be unacceptable."

Ruyi knew that Rong Pei was always cautious, so she followed her.

Lingzhi and Yunzhi were picking flowers not far away. Soon they came to Ruyi with the garlands they had made to ask for a reward.

Ruyi took the wreath with a smile and put it on her head, not forgetting to praise the two of them for their cleverness.

"It's not that we are dexterous, it's clearly because the queen is beautiful, so she looks good no matter how she dresses."

"You are such a smooth talker, I am embarrassed to say this to you."

Ruyi chuckled, took off the two jade rings on her wrists, and gave one to each of them.

The two little palace maids then put on their new bracelets contentedly and ran away.

Rong Pei tidied up Ruyi's hair that was tangled by the rough wreath, "Lingzhi and Yunzhi are still young, yet Your Majesty is willing to indulge them like this."

Ruyi smiled but said nothing.

Lingzhi and Yunzhi were both palace maids who followed her in their previous lives.

In the past, she was incompetent and did not live up to her expectations as a master, so her maids also suffered humiliation and lived worse than others.

Never again in this life.

Ruyi closed her eyes, raised her chin slightly, and quietly felt the fragrance of flowers surrounding her.

"Rong Pei, I haven't smelled the air outside the palace for a long time. Every blade of grass and every tree here is completely different from those in the palace."

Rong Pei sniffed in confusion, not understanding what Ruyi meant.

Ruyi didn't seem to need Rong Pei's answer and continued to speak to herself.

“Although the flowers in the palace are beautiful and gorgeous, they are all trimmed and cultivated layer by layer, always with a dull and deliberate craftsmanship.

But it's different here. The air here is sweet and refreshing, with the scent of flowers, grass, soil and river water.

It is complex yet free, the most unrestrained thing in the world.

So is the smell, and so are the people.

People outside the palace envy the wealth of the palace, but they don’t know that people inside the palace are longing for the freedom outside.

The Forbidden City is like a mysterious besieged city. People outside would rather spend money to get in, but who knows how many people are inside, looking for opportunities to escape day and night.

Rong Pei nodded suddenly and smiled softly, "Yes, people are the same, always greedy and insatiable."

When everything was silent, suddenly a few hurried female voices came from far away, breaking the tranquility.

"It's bad, it's bad, your Majesty. The enclosure was attacked by wild beasts. There are casualties everywhere. Even the emperor is injured..."

Lingzhi and Yunzhi came running over quickly, both with panic-stricken looks on their faces.

Ruyi's first reaction was not to think about the emperor, but...

"Where's Yongji? Where's Jingshu? And Yongjing..."

Ruyi forced herself to calm down quickly and ordered in a trembling voice, "The princes and princesses are all present at the banquet today, Lingzhi, go and see how they are doing!

Yongjing is young and sleepy, so I have arranged for him to go back to bed early. Yunzhi, go back to the tent to find Yongjing.

Rong Pei, come back with me to the banquet and take a look!"

Rong Pei wanted to persuade her, "Madam, it is dangerous at the banquet. We don't know how ferocious the beast is and whether it will hurt anyone. I can go by myself. You should find a safe place to wait..."

"No, no, I won't feel at ease until I see Yongji, Jingshu and Yongjing are safe!"

The originally lively banquet was now in a mess.

There were shocking blood stains everywhere, cups were broken, the bonfire was scattered, and occasionally a few people fell to the ground or on the table, and it was unknown whether they were dead or alive.

Among them were guards, palace maids, and nobles in gorgeous clothes...

Fortunately, Yongjing was not affected. When Yunzhi went to find him, Yongjing was still sleeping soundly.

Jingshu was closely protected by Liuying and guarded by Bao Yuan. Apart from being a little frightened, not a single hair of hers was hurt.

Only Yongqi...

In the tent, Ruyi was sitting beside the bed, rubbing medicinal wine on the young man who was sitting beside the bed.

The boy took off half of his shirt, revealing his lean arms. However, the three claw marks on his arms looked particularly bloody and creepy.

"Hiss, Madam, please be gentle, I am in pain..."
