Zhen Huan Reborn as Langya to Cure Yi Syndrome

Chapter 47: Ruyi Rescue the Queen Mother

Ling Yunche paid tribute to Narbu and hurried back to the palace to tell Ruyi.

After hearing this, Ruyi suppressed her grief and said to Ling Yunche with tears in her eyes, "I already know about it. Thank you for telling me." Her voice was so calm that it made people feel distressed.

Seeing Ruyi so sad, Ling Yunche couldn't help but feel pity for her. He whispered to her, "Please accept my condolences."

Ruyi nodded slightly, looking into the distance, as if she saw the distant past through the palace walls. She recalled every detail of her father's life, and those warm memories have now become an untouchable pain in her heart.

Gao Bin, it must be Gao Bin. My good father followed Gao Bin to build water conservancy projects, and then he was gone. The queen caused herself rheumatism, and Gao Xiyue killed her own father. I must get out.

As night fell, Ruyi was alone in her bedroom, watching over a solitary lamp and crying silently. Her mood became heavier, as if the whole world had lost its color.

In the Yanxi Palace, A'ruo, who heard the news of Narbu's death, coincidentally met with Concubine Hui in the Xianfu Palace, who wanted to stand up for the Emperor and avenge Ruyi.

Gao Xiyue said nonchalantly: "Let Suo Xin bring her some paper money, and that will be considered as telling her about her father. I cannot bear to see her happy."

Ah Ruo thought to herself, the imperial concubine is really naive. Ruyi would not be indifferent to the news of her father's death. She really cares about her father. For the sake of their previous friendship, she should beg the emperor. At least Narbu will not be sent to work on the river.

Ah Ruo gritted her teeth and said cruelly, "My Lady, this is just a piece of news. How can it relieve my hatred? I have an idea. I just hope that My Lady will not drag Suo Xin into the game. She can leave the palace soon."

Gao Xiyue became interested and said, "Okay, tell me what you think. I'll ask someone else to do it."

In the cold palace, a little maid brought Ruyi paper ingots, candles and other gifts, "Nara, a commoner in the cold palace, our master sympathizes with you for losing your loved ones and sent you incense and candles as tribute. Please give them to her."

After the maid left, Ling Yunche helped Ruyi arrange the offerings and said, "Which old acquaintance of yours is this?"

Ruyi smiled bitterly: "I have different ideas from those in the palace and I have no old friends to be friends with. Someone must be plotting against me again."

In winter, the sky is always dark and the empress dowager feels unwell. Concubine Hui suggests that the empress dowager hold a ceremony and invite a shaman lady to perform rituals to drive away the haze.

The Queen Mother agreed, and the ritual was held as scheduled. Cheng Han, who was beside the Queen Mother, came to report to the Queen Mother that Ulanara, who lived in the cold palace, secretly burned paper in the cold palace, disrupting the Queen Mother's ritual.

The Queen Mother was angry and said, "How can this be possible? Are you trying to curse me and the Emperor?"

Cheng Han struck while the iron was hot: "Why not have the Queen Mother go and see for herself, and catch the perpetrators red-handed, so that the Ulanara family will be convinced."

"Pretending to be in the cold palace."

The Queen Mother moved to the cold palace, and as expected, through the crack of the cold palace door, she saw the flames rising to the sky in the courtyard. When she opened the door, she did not see Ulanara panicking, but instead saluted calmly.

The Queen Mother was suspicious: "Ulanara, you openly burned paper and worshipped in the palace, which violated the palace rules. I will punish you."

Ruyi said calmly, "In reply to the Queen Mother, I dare not violate the palace rules. I just copied the six-character mantra and burned it to pray for the Emperor and the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother was shocked: "Nonsense, you dare to burn the scriptures, you are disrespectful to the Buddha, come, slap him in the face."

Just as Ruyi was in doubt, she saw Concubine Ji rushing towards the Queen Mother with a dagger. Ruyi took a step forward, pushed Concubine Ji away, and stood between the Queen Mother and Concubine Ji.

Concubine Ji fell to the ground. The young eunuchs rushed forward and pinned her down. She did not struggle, but only cursed the empress dowager: "Niuhulu, you old witch, you bewitched the late emperor and framed me. If it weren't for Ruyi, I would have killed you long ago."

The Queen Mother just looked at Concubine Ji coldly and said sarcastically, "You are a defeated general." As if brushing off a speck of dust, she ordered someone to deal with Concubine Ji.

Turning to look at Ruyi, the Queen Mother had realized that she was being used as a pawn. "You, very good. I will remember your kindness today. If I have the chance in the future, I will persuade the Emperor to release you."

There was turmoil in the harem, and they dared to plot against her. Ruyi and that person were too bold and presumptuous. She didn't mind releasing Ruyi to make things difficult for them.

On the way back to the Cining Palace, the Queen Mother glanced at the people around her. "Chenghan, go to the Xinzheku, you ungrateful slave."

The next day, the Queen Mother found Gao Xiyue in Changchun Palace and sent Aunt Fujia to reprimand Zhen Huan, saying that she was incompetent and unable to discipline the concubines in the harem.

Zhen Huan was speechless. She wanted to protect the sisterhood between Langya and Gao Xiyue in this life, so she didn't put any spies in her palace. In the past, Xiyue told her everything she knew, but why did she suddenly make a wrong decision and do something bad behind her back?

Just as Concubine Hui said herself, she has a brain but she just doesn't like to use it. Now that she realizes that she has made a mistake, her brain becomes more flexible and she understands every word that Fujia said.

After Fu Jia left, he immediately knelt down to apologize. This was the first time Gao Xiyue showed great courtesy to Zhen Huan when they were alone together.

"I know I was wrong. I caused my sister to be reprimanded by the Queen Mother." Gao Xiyue really regretted it. She made a mistake, and the Queen Mother directly made things difficult for her sister Langya.

How could Zhen Huan be really angry? She pulled Gao Xiyue up and told her everything about her and A Ruo's plan.

Zhen Huan was both angry and amused, and said with a black face: "You two cobblers, you dare to plot against the Queen Mother before you even have three of you together."

"I really know I was wrong. How about I go and beg Princess Hengti?" Gao Xiyue had a sad face. She wished there was a pill to regret in the world. Looking at A Ruo who looked smart, she realized that she had really gotten on board with her.

"My silly sister, you have plotted against the Queen Mother and are going to use the eldest princess. The Queen Mother will be really angry. Since the Queen Mother has already guessed it, you might as well apologize sincerely." Zhen Huan scratched Gao Xiyue's nose and pouted her face, looking so cute.

On the second day, Zhen Huan and Gao Xiyue came to the Cining Palace. Gao Xiyue acted coquettishly and foolishly, and finally made the Queen Mother smile.

"Empress, I cannot stand any dirty things. I hope you can do your job and not disturb the peace of me and the Emperor." The Queen Mother finally advised Zhen Huan.

"I obey your order and follow the Queen Mother's instructions."

Outside the cold palace, Wei Yanwan came to find Ling Yunche with the rose cream cake given by her master.

"Brother Yunche, this is a reward from Master Yu. Eat it while it's hot. The master didn't even eat the new pastries himself when they came down, but gave us more as a reward." Speaking of Hailan, Yanwan's eyes were full of admiration.

Ling Yunche said while eating cakes: "You are still young and don't know people well. You must be careful of your master. He might sell you out one day."

On the day Ruyi received the paper money, she told Ling Yunche all about her grievances with the people in the harem. Ling Yunche instinctively felt fear and disgust towards Hai Lan.

Yan Wan retorted: "How can you not recognize people clearly? The master is very good to me."

"You can only know a person's face but not his heart. How do you know if she is really nice or not?"

Wei Yanwan snatched the pastry from Ling Yunche's hand and said, "Don't eat bad people's things." Wei Yanwan didn't allow anyone to say bad things about her master.
