Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem

Chapter 53 The Unlucky Person Who Was Not Selected

Just when the emperor was in a dilemma, a voice suddenly came from outside the door: "The Empress Dowager has arrived."

Except for Ruyi who was already kneeling on the ground, the emperor, Fucha Langya and a group of concubines and servants hurriedly knelt to greet her.

The Queen Mother did not come alone. She was followed by concubines including Gao Xiyue, Su Lujun and Chen Wanyin.

After the empress dowager entered the room, she didn't look at anyone. She just supported the emperor and then sat down on the main seat.

"I heard the rumors going around the palace today and was very worried, so I came to take a look.

The affairs of the six palaces should always be handled openly. The queen is young and it is inevitable that she will not handle things in a thoughtful manner.

I wanted to remind you about the last incident in Jingyang Palace.

Well, today I will bring all the concubines in the harem here to let them see what will happen if they are involved in palace gossip and disrupt the order of the harem.

Queen, do you have any opinion on what I did?"

Fu Cha Langya quickly stood up and knelt down, "I accept your instructions, Madam Queen."

"Well, Queen, please stand up." The Queen Mother did not embarrass Fu Cha Langya. She glanced at the people kneeling below, paused for a while, and said, "You all stand up."

Everyone thanked her. Ruyi was also helped by惢心 to sit on the soft chair.

The Queen Mother turned her gaze towards the Emperor and asked, "Emperor, I was just outside the door and I seemed to hear Concubine Xian asking to be sent to the cold palace?"

The emperor smiled apologetically and said, "Oh, rumors are spreading outside the palace. The queen and the Imperial Observatory both suspect that Concubine Xian is a demon.

Empress Xian was kind and could not bear to see her son disturbed by rumors, so she wanted to prove her innocence. In a moment of impulse, she asked to be sent to the cold palace.

"Humph, is this impulsive? It's clearly reckless. Concubine Xian, you are still pregnant with the royal heir, how can you be so willful?

It's just a few rumors, but you can't keep your cool. You are young after all." The Queen Mother said to Ruyi with a cold gaze.

Ruyi held her belly and quickly knelt down to apologize.

The empress dowager did not ask her to get up when she saw this. She lowered her eyes, picked up the green-glazed jade-painted flower teacup, and gently scraped the tea leaves floating on the surface.

The sound of the teacup colliding with the tea lid was particularly clear in the silent room.

The queen mother had no expression on her face and looked really angry. Everyone held their breath and dared not say anything.

Su Lujun thought about it and spoke to mediate, "Empress Xian is pregnant, and it is common for her to be emotionally unstable during pregnancy.

Thinking back to when I was pregnant with Yong Zhang, I was also crying and laughing at the same time. "

The emperor smiled and said, "Yes, I remember when I was in the palace, Concubine Chun cried before giving birth and said she was afraid that I would not like her child.

As a result, Yong Zhang was extremely happy when he was born, and he laughed like crazy."

Su Lujun covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed, "Your Majesty, please don't make fun of me."

After this interruption, the Empress Dowager's expression finally eased a little. The Emperor quickly signaled惢心 to help Ruyi up.

The Queen Mother raised her teacup and took a sip, "Emperor, I have also heard some of the rumors outside the palace.

You have only been on the throne for a few days, and yet someone has repeatedly stirred up trouble in the harem, plotting to murder the heir, and disturbing the peace of the harem. I think you should clean up your harem."

"The Empress Dowager is right. My son is wrong." The emperor frowned and lowered his head to admit his mistake.

The Queen Mother said, "Emperor, you and the Queen are still young. How about I set an example for you?

The evil tendencies in the harem cannot be suppressed without some skill."

Fucha Langya couldn't sit still any longer. She moved forward and said, "My Queen Mother, your son..."

The emperor was already dissatisfied after hearing Fu Cha Langya's decision just now.

He was still young and did not completely believe in astrology.

In addition, he and Ruyi were young and in love, and Ruyi was pregnant. In the emperor's heart, he was actually very reluctant to let Ruyi suffer the slightest grievance.

If the Queen Mother could come up with a different solution, perhaps there would be a turning point.

Thinking of this, the emperor no longer cared about maintaining Fu Cha Langya's face, and interrupted, "In this case, I will listen to the Empress Dowager. Queen, it is hard for you to take care of Yonglian, but you also have to take care of the regulation of the harem.

If the Empress Dowager is willing to teach you, you should learn more. When Yonglian's condition stabilizes, you can continue to manage the harem."

Fu Cha Langya's originally dignified smile was about to break.

She originally wanted to use this incident to make Ruyi fall out of favor and at the same time lose the power to assist in managing the six palaces.

As for the precious child, it would be best if he died in the womb, but not having him would not affect her status. She would still be the honorable mother.

But the Queen Mother suddenly intervened and actually wanted to directly take away her power as the Queen to manage the six palaces?

How could Fu Cha Lang Ya sit still after this?

Moreover, instead of pleading for her, the emperor even agreed with the empress dowager's opinion.

Does this mean that they do have doubts and dissatisfaction with their ability to manage the six palaces?

Even though she was unwilling, Fucha Langya still tried her best to maintain her dignity as the queen and said, "Yes, I will listen to the emperor and the queen mother."

The Queen Mother nodded, very satisfied with Fu Cha Langya's tact.

"I have heard all the rumors outside the palace. It is such a coincidence that I was there when Ruyi participated in the emperor's selection.

At that time, Ruyi was not selected because she was implicated by her aunt and displeased the late emperor.

But Ruyi herself is a woman of good character, elegant and virtuous.

In addition, the late emperor and I are both reasonable people, otherwise they would not have agreed to let her become the emperor's concubine and then the Empress Xian."

The emperor quickly agreed, "Yes, with the Empress Dowager guaranteeing her, I think no one will dare to doubt Concubine Xian's innocence anymore."

Gao Xiyue did not understand what the emperor meant and thought that the emperor was forced to say something against his will because of the empress dowager's majesty.

She couldn't help but say, "But Queen Mother, although Concubine Xian didn't deliberately seduce the Emperor, if she wasn't a demon, why was she the only one in the palace who could give birth, while the other concubines all died in their wombs?"

Gao Xiyue thought she had grasped the key to the problem, but she did not notice the mockery in the Queen Mother's eyes.

"Huipin, what you said is biased. The emperor has been on the throne for less than a year, and three concubines in the harem have become pregnant one after another. This is already a great blessing.

If you insist that the fact that there were not many princes born was the work of evil spirits, then throughout history, how many emperors had no happy news from their harems for years.

Is it because the emperor is incompetent and can't find the evildoer? It's easy to find excuses for such a crime."

Gao Xiyue certainly knew that what she said was untenable, but she just didn't want Ruyi to have an easy time.

Gao Xiyue thought that the Queen Mother and they were on the same side, so she continued to instigate, "Queen Mother, you participated in the Emperor's selection.

But you also know how domineering Concubine Xian was at that time. Concubine Xian tricked the emperor into giving her the jade ruyi, and it was you and the late emperor who personally took her jade ruyi away.

"It is clear that Concubine Xian is an unlucky person who has been rejected. Why can she still be Concubine Xian in the palace and be pregnant with a child? This is clearly a demon and a disaster. Have you forgotten it?"

The emperor looked slightly angry and said sternly, "Hui Fei, how dare you question the Empress Dowager? Where have you learned any rules?"

Gao Xiyue was so frightened that she fell off the chair and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, please calm down. It was I who said something wrong."
