Zhen Huan Reborn as Langya to Cure Yi Syndrome

Chapter 38: Cold Palace Dungeon Opened

"You insist that you were framed, but you say that the opportunity to defend yourself is unimportant. You say that your relationship with me is the most important, but you did not hesitate to hurt my child. Do you know that a child like this could endanger the Qing Dynasty? You said that I would not let go of the hand holding you in the abyss. Are you asking me to protect you?"

"We looked at each other from afar on the wall and on the horse, and my heart broke as soon as I saw you. I never thought that there would be a day when the emperor and I would look at each other, and be left with only disappointment." Ruyi said with tears in her eyes.

"I am indeed disappointed in you. I always thought you were indifferent to fame and gain. I was wrong." Hongli closed his eyes. How could he control the officials when he didn't even understand the person next to him? This was the first time that Hongli doubted himself.

"Yinyun was beaten to death, Narbu was stripped of his title, demoted to the seventh rank, and sent out to repair the river."

"As for Consort Xian, take back the imperial seal and seal. Demote her to a commoner and banish her to the cold palace."

Ruyi only looked at Hongli in disbelief, and did not plead for her father: "Is it the emperor's original intention to depose me and become a commoner?"

"If there is a mistake, it should be punished. This is my original intention."

"Just for what the emperor said, I am willing to stay in the cold palace forever. If time is useful, I hope you can clear my grievances." Ruyi looked heartbroken.

Hongli didn't want to waste any more time talking to her. After talking for so long, he still didn't understand whether clearing the injustice depended on evidence, not time, let alone affection.

"Empress, I want you to quickly eliminate all the forces of the Jingren Palace Ulanara clan that remain in the palace."

"Yes, I will obey your order. Your Majesty, what should we do with A Ruo?" Zhen Huan asked.

"A Ruo was guilty of shielding the criminal, but she was meritorious for exposing the crime. Her merits and demerits offset each other, so the Queen will arrange a new place for her in the palace."

Ruyi walked back to the Yanxi Palace in a daze, sitting alone in the palace in a daze. Her position, innocence, servants, and love were all gone.

Qin Li came with his people in a cheerful mood, quickly emptied the Yanxi Palace, and took away Sanbao, Lingzhi and others. Suo Xin was a senior maid who was given to the palace, and he had no right to deal with her, and he had to ask the Queen for permission.

When Sanbao and the others left, Ruyi just sat in the hall in a daze, and was unwilling to go out to take a look or say goodbye, which made惢心 even more disappointed in her.

Ruyi became more and more sad as she thought about it. She broke a teacup. The sound of the porcelain breaking expressed her feelings very well.惢心 had no choice but to step aside and clean up. She would wash her own clothes from now on.

Li Yulai delivered a message: "Tomorrow I will send Princess Yi to the cold palace. Tonight, quickly pack up some gold and silver jewelry. They will be useful in the cold palace."

Li Yu then suggested, "Master Yi, why don't you take Suo Xin with you? It will be difficult for Suo Xin if Ah Ruo is outside."

"Why would Sister A Ruo make things difficult for me?"惢心 didn't dare to say anything. It was Princess Yi who was punished, not me, so why should I go to the cold palace?

Ruyi said disappointedly: "It's good for Suo Xin to go with me. Ah Ruo even framed me, so how could she let Suo Xin go?"

Suo Xin was still unwilling, and Li Yu also advised: "A Ruo has already betrayed her master, Suo Xin should accompany Master Yi. It would not be proper for you to stay outside."

Ruyi took Suo Xin's hand and said, "We are the master and servant, together as one, and our days will not be lonely."

Since entering the palace,惢心 has been taught to be loyal to her master, and Eunuch Qin Li did not specify where she was going, so she had no choice but to agree to go to the cold palace.

After bidding farewell to Li Yu, Suo Xin was busy packing up her belongings. Now, there was nothing left in the entire Yanxi Palace that belonged to the nobles. Suo Xin quickly packed up the snacks and her master's dowry.

Ruyi held Suo Xin and said, "Gold and silver are vulgar things, they are all external things, and they are a burden to carry. You have already packed so much food and snacks. If you have food for today and tomorrow, you will still be hungry the day after tomorrow. Bring more clothes."

惢心 did not dare to go against Ruyi's wishes. After thinking it over, she decided to take the money she had saved.

Li Yu said that she would come to send them to the cold palace at 7:00 in the morning, and Ruyi asked惢心 to dress her up at 5:00 in the morning. Ruyi tied her hair into a bun and picked out a set of plain silver armor inlaid with kingfisher feathers.

"My dear, please don't wear the armor,"惢心 reminded Ruyi. When she arrived at the cold palace, she had to do all the work by herself. She couldn't eat or drink the armor, and it would be a burden to carry it with her.

"Even if I was born in a cold palace, I must live a decent life."

Ruyi walked forward with a faint smile. Even if she was demoted for committing a crime, she still had to live a decent life.惢心, who was carrying all her wealth, was worried about the unknown future of herself and Jiang Yubin.

In the previous life, Hongli took the initiative to place A Ruo in front of the emperor in order to keep her as a witness, and later made her a concubine. In this life, Ruyi's crime has been concluded, and Hongli no longer cares about the whereabouts of a little palace maid.

Zhen Huan placed A Ruo in front of the emperor to be Hongli's tea-serving maid. She had to walk her own future path.惢心 was also her karma, so she had to save her own way.

Zhen Huan only focused on clearing out all the forces of Yixiu. The harem in this life is simply a sieve, and all kinds of forces can put their eyes in the palace, and they have just cleared out a part of it.

As expected of Yixiu, she hid deeper and escaped the first purge. It’s a pity that Ruyi was too stupid.

A Ruo was demoted from the head maid to the second-class maid. She changed from the purple maid's shirt to the light green maid's uniform. She took off her sailboat bun, combed her hair back into a short bun, and simply pinned two velvet flowers in her hair.

Without her old-fashioned attire, A Ruo was still exceptionally beautiful and eye-catching even in a harem filled with beauties.

Just like in the previous life, A Ruo went to bed with him.

In the previous dynasty, A Ruo's father Gui Duo had made great contributions to flood control and political achievements. Hongli appointed A Ruo as a maid, and she did not have to start from the position of an official girl.

She was given the title of Shen, and she was gentle and kind, and she was prudent in her conduct. She was hoped to change her past and embrace a new life. She was granted the title of Shen to live in the Yanxi Palace and take charge of the affairs of the palace.

Later, when A Ruo met Concubine Hui, she learned that Gui Duo had asked Gao Bin to intercede with the emperor on his behalf, willing to use his merits to exchange A Ruo for an early exit from the palace. "Your father was looking forward to your early exit from the palace so that he could find a good marriage partner. Unexpectedly, Concubine Shen was so lucky that the emperor gave her the best marriage partner."

In the cold palace, Eunuch Ma brought quilts, pillows and other supplies. Ruyi happily bowed to Eunuch Ma and said, "Eunuch, you have worked hard. Are these the emperor asking you to give them to me?"

Eunuch Ma slightly turned aside and did not dare to accept her gift: "It was given by the Queen."

Ruyi was disappointed, but then she felt relieved after thinking about it. She thought that the emperor must be worried, so Fucha Langya had to pretend to be magnanimous. For the sake of the emperor's peace of mind, I will accept it.

惢心 worked non-stop all day long. She cleaned as soon as she opened her eyes, and combed Ruyi's hair and washed her face when she woke up. After serving Ruyi, she began to do embroidery, and was busy until she could no longer see at night, then she would stop and boil water for her master to wipe her body. She had to change her clothes every two days, and wash her quilt every ten days. The well water was already freezing in early autumn.

Li Yu said that she wanted to bring gold and silver, but her master said that they were all external things and would be a burden. When she came to the cold palace, she needed to use the money to buy her own food. She could only use her own money to buy embroidery thread and cloth, and embroider non-stop to barely avoid starving to death.

Ruyi just wandered around, chatting with Concubine Ji, sometimes delivering embroidery work, and chatting with the gatekeeper Ling Yunche, asking him to bring in flower seeds. Fortunately, they were trumpet creepers, which were easy to grow and did not require her to take care of them.
