Zhen Huan Reborn as Langya to Cure Yi Syndrome

Chapter 29: Conferring the title of Li Jingui

Ever since Ruyi discussed Western wedding customs with the emperor, the emperor has been angry with Ruyi. Ruyi really missed the emperor, so she had to take the initiative to think of a way out.

She carefully painted a small portrait of herself and the emperor, in which the two people leaned against the city wall, holding a peep show in their hands. She also wrote next to the small portrait: "From the top of the wall and on the horse, we looked at each other from afar. As soon as I saw you, I knew my heart was broken."

"I know that the emperor is thinking about me, but it would be inappropriate for him to be in the painting with me. I will just paint a picture by myself, and he will understand me."

Hongli in the Hall of Mental Cultivation was somewhat moved by the small portrait, but looking at the mountain of memorials, he planned to visit Concubine Xian when he had free time.

Li Yu, who was standing by, saw that Hongli did not respond, and hurriedly pleaded for Concubine Xian: "Concubine Xian misses the emperor, why don't you go to the Yanxi Palace to see the queen."

Hongli didn't even raise his eyelids, "Get out and kneel down. If it happens again, you'll go to Xinzheku to clean the toilet." It was really outrageous. Everyone wanted to be his boss.

At night, Concubine Gao missed the emperor and came to the Yangxin Palace to visit him. "Your Majesty, I am not feeling well. The imperial physician Qi is a master in the medical field. He can cure diseases but not the heart. One day without seeing Your Majesty feels like three autumns. Now it seems like I haven't seen you for more than a hundred years. I miss you. Can you hear how anxious I am?"

The Yangxin Palace was still full of charm, and Ruyi thought the emperor would come to the Yanxi Palace until the eunuch who went to inquire said that the emperor had been accompanied by the imperial concubine and rested in the Yangxin Palace. Then she returned to the bedroom and was helped by A Ruo to wash and remove her makeup.

"It's difficult for you to ask the imperial concubine not to compete for favor."

Ah Ruo thought about what Ruyi would like to hear, "She just can't stand seeing her master being favored, and she is also arrogant, as if everyone has a father who is an official."

This touched Ruyi's lungs. "Aruo, your father Guiduo was sent out to serve as an official, and you are proud of yourself. You should be more careful with your words. You are also a daughter of an official family now, so you should act more steadily and don't have to take the lead in everything or speak harshly. You go out and let Suo Xin come in to serve you."

惢心 entered the room and knelt down to massage Ruyi: "My dear, please don't be angry with A Ruo. She just likes to talk about everything. She is also worried about you. Of course, you are calm, but from what I see, the favor in this palace is really uncertain."

"Although the favor of this palace comes today and leaves tomorrow, I believe in the affection between the emperor and me. I hope to be close to the emperor and relieve his worries."

On Ruyi's birthday, Hongli finally stepped into the long-missed Yanx Palace. He saw that Ruyi was wearing a light purple cheongsam, which made her look particularly refreshing and beautiful.

Hongli was in a good mood. He took her in his arms, walked into the hall, and had dinner with her.

"Let's eat longevity noodles together and live a long life."

"Longevity is good, but what's the point if you become an old woman with wrinkled skin?" Please praise me for being young and beautiful and saying I will never grow old.

"You look good even when you're old."

"That would be even scarier than turning into an old witch." Tell me quickly, even if I turn into an old witch, you will still love me.

Hongli: It never ends. It’s suffocating.

The beautiful empress dowager and the concubine who still have charm: What's wrong with getting old? I'm going to eat your rice.

Ruyi finally got to the highlight of the day. The emperor asked her about her wish, and she knelt down and begged Hongli to posthumously confer the title of Li Jingui.

Hongli slammed the door and walked out, having a cold war with Ruyi and ignoring her.

Firefighters, Zhen Huan came to Yangxin Palace to relieve her anger. I really admire this Ruyi. Others have children to take care of, those without children please the emperor, and those who are at the very least can do embroidery and painting. Why is it that she is the only one who causes trouble every day?

"Langya, do you know that my biological mother is not the Queen Mother?" Hongli felt really uncomfortable today, and he longed for an outlet.

Zhen Huan just pretended not to know.

"My biological mother was a maid in the palace. The late emperor suspected that she was the Eighth Prince's spy, so he disliked her, and caused me to be disliked by the late emperor as well. Later, the Empress Dowager was involved in the vortex of palace fighting. After she regained her favor and returned to the palace, I, like the Yongshou Palace, became a gift to celebrate her." Hongli hugged Zhen Huan sadly.

Over the years, whenever he encountered sad things, he would hug Zhen Huan tightly. His wife was the only relative he could hold and grasp.

"Your Majesty, the late emperor cared about you, and the empress dowager also loved you."

"My biological mother died during childbirth, and I don't even know what she looked like. My father, I saw him holding other brothers and enjoying the family life, but when he saw me in the Forbidden City, he asked me why I was in the palace."

"As for the Empress Dowager, I have a shallow mother-son relationship with her. When I was registered under her name, she had already grown up. We should pay attention to the separation between men and women. We are just physically together but spiritually apart."

"Has the Emperor and the Queen Mother never met before?"

"When I was young, I met her in the Old Summer Palace. At that time, she was still Empress Wan. Her smile was very warm. She encouraged me to work hard and not belittle myself. Later, on New Year's Eve one year, I was allowed to enter the palace, and I secretly went to Sui Yu Xuan to visit her. However, when I went there again, she was no longer there."

"At that time, I was still thinking that there was no one waiting for me in Suiyuxuan, the only place in the Forbidden City that gave me warmth. However, later on, Huifei, who was on good terms with the Empress Dowager, moved into Suiyuxuan. She was also a kind person and was willing to protect me."

Zhen Huan finally found an opportunity to tell Hongli what was in her heart.

"I heard that Wanpin had a bad relationship with Imperial Noble Consort Dunsu, and her father, Lord Zhen, was exiled to Ningguta. She was banished from the palace before she was out of confinement. I think she could not protect herself, and her influence was not taken seriously. Even if she liked the emperor when she first met him, she would not be able to raise you."

"Yes, I understand. I am grateful to the Empress Dowager. I will give her a title tomorrow. But I still want to posthumously confer a title on my biological mother. The Old Summer Palace was poor and lonely, and she had no name or status. I really feel uneasy."

"This matter has shaken the foundation of the country. Not only will the Empress Dowager feel uneasy, but it is also a world-shaking event. I cannot suppress the rumors."

"This Concubine Xian, she says she loves me but she tries to win my favor by exposing my sad stories. I am so disappointed in her."

Zhen Huan suggested: "Why not take the opportunity of giving the empress dowager a title to confer titles on the late emperor's concubines to silence all officials. Since the emperor said that he was protected by his father, Concubine Hui, why not confer titles on him to appease the empress dowager?"

"Your Majesty can go to the Cining Palace and have a heart-to-heart talk with the Empress Dowager to see if my guess is correct."

On the second day, Hongli went to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager and asked, "Does the Empress Dowager still keep the wreath that I gave to her when I was young?" After a moment, Aunt Fujia walked out of the inner hall holding a dried but well-preserved wreath.

Afterwards, he issued an edict to confer titles on the concubines of the previous emperor. Since the Imperial Father's Concubine Hui had been very kind to the Emperor, she was posthumously conferred the title of Imperial Noble Concubine Huiyi.

The empress dowager said that she had given birth to the fourth prince in the Old Summer Palace and suffered a difficult delivery that injured her body. Fortunately, Li Jingui, a female official in the Old Summer Palace, took good care of her and both mother and child were safe. She specially asked the emperor to make an exception and posthumously confer the title of Concubine Si on her and move her to the concubine's tomb.

Sanbao, the eunuch in charge of the Yanxi Palace, excitedly reported the good news to Concubine Xian. "That's great, my Lord. The Emperor listened to me. I will be back in favor soon."

Hearing this, Ruyi lifted her skirt and turned around coquettishly, "Huh~"
