A quick journey starting from Wu Dalang

In front of so many people, the two young eunuchs began to talk to Ruyi: "Empress Xian, why do you have to force us? Do you really want us to die?"

"You guys can't live if you do something like this. This is a capital crime punishable by the death of all nine generations of your clan. If you are willing to reveal the mastermind behind this, I can guarantee that your family will be safe."

"At this point, I will not hide anything from you anymore, Your Majesty. This was done under the instruction of Empress Xian. Even the cinnabar was given to us by Empress Xian."

After saying that, the two young eunuchs hit their heads against the pillars and died. The bloody scene made the puppets unable to hold back vomiting, and they vomited on the emperor standing beside them. The emperor's face turned visibly black.

But this was the queen, and she was pregnant with her own child, so the emperor had to vent his anger on other people, even Ruyi was not immune to his anger.

"Why don't we investigate this matter another day? It's more important to let the Empress go back and rest first. The Emperor also needs to change his clothes." Jin Yuyan was a woman who understood hints. Her suggestion was very good, but Ruyi didn't listen.

"Your Majesty, I think we should search the palace now to see who has cinnabar in their palace. This way, we can identify the murderer before he goes back and destroys the evidence."

The emperor laughed out of anger. Even though he was in this state, Ruyi didn't care about him and insisted on searching the palace. Fine, then search it.

The emperor spoke, and the palace servants immediately started to move. Jin Yuyan was glad that she had prepared the cinnabar early in the morning and waited for Ruyi to find out the so-called murderer. After a long time, Wang Qin came with two boxes of cinnabar.

"Your Majesty, this is the cinnabar that I found in Changchun Palace and Yikun Palace."

"Eternal Spring Palace?" The emperor didn't believe it. He knew his first wife very well: "The queen can't be the murderer."

Everyone looked at Ruyi with pity. Doesn't this mean that Ruyi is the murderer? No matter what the truth is, the emperor's words are really hurtful.

Ruyi was unconvinced and wanted to say something else, but the puppet spoke first: "This is the cinnabar that the emperor brought when he reviewed memorials a few days ago. I have kept it in the study, but I didn't expect that Wang Qin would take it here today."

"According to what the Empress said, only the cinnabar in Concubine Xian's palace is of unknown origin. Doesn't this just prove that Concubine Xian is the murderer of Concubine Shen?" Gao Xiyue spoke immediately. She still resented the purse incident that year and wanted to kill Ruyi in one fell swoop.

"If Concubine Hui says so, I don't know what to say." Ruyi stood up and knelt on the ground.

"If that's the case, then you admit it? Come on, strip her of her concubine's clothes and send her to the cold palace!" Gao Xiyue said excitedly. This feeling is so great!

"Noble Concubine Hui!" The emperor looked at Gao Xiyue disapprovingly, then turned to look at Ruyi: "Empress Xian, do you have anything else to defend yourself?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have no way to defend myself." Ruyi pouted slightly with a hollow look in her eyes.

In the end, in full view of everyone, Ruyi was sent to the cold palace. This time, without惢心's company, Bai Ruiji arranged for惢心 to marry Jiang Yubin right after Ruyi was sent to the cold palace.

As soon as Ruyi was sent to the cold palace, Chen Wanyin gave birth. Everything went smoothly. Under the care of Su Lujun, Chen Wanyin gave birth to a fair and chubby little prince. The emperor happily named him Yonglian.

Chen Wanyin was also promoted to Chengpin. Originally, the emperor planned to move her to another palace, but Chen Wanyin couldn't bear to leave Su Lujun, so she continued to live with her.

While the emperor was happy, the puppet told the emperor about惢心's marriage. The emperor thought that Jiang Yubin had been taking care of Chen Wanyin since her pregnancy, so he issued an edict to grant the marriage and even gave Jiang Yubin a lot of rewards.

Suo Xin beautifully left the palace to get married. Li Yu also gave her a lot of house deeds and land deeds, and Bai Ruiji also gave her a lot of shops. The couple left with many thanks.

Li Yu's gift-giving also attracted Bai Ruiji's attention. She remembered that Li Yu had an apprentice named Jinzhong, who seemed to like a palace maid just like Li Yu.

Out of curiosity, Bai Ruiji went to meet Jinzhong, but discovered a shocking secret.

"Jinzhong, go and deliver something to Concubine Shen in Yikun Palace. Also, don't mention Concubine Xian, lest Concubine Shen goes crazy and hurts you." Li Yu gave these two instructions and left in a hurry.

Jinzhong brought his men and carried rewards to Yiku Palace. It was at this time that Bai Ruiji met Jinzhong. Looking at his face and feeling his breath, Bai Ruiji always felt that he was very familiar.

Bai Ruiji thought about the original owner's life experience and guessed that this eunuch Jinzhong might be the original owner's biological brother. In her memory, in order to keep the original owner alive, Jinzhong sold himself for the price of a bowl of rice.

Unfortunately, he didn't expect that his sister could not escape the fate of being sold. If she hadn't been lucky, she would have been sent to a brothel long ago.

On that day, Bai Ruiji asked Lianxin to summon Jinzhong. Jinzhong didn't know what was going on, so he came to Changchun Palace and said, "Your servant pays respects to the Queen Mother."

Bai Ruiji looked at him, and the original owner's emotions instantly invaded her. She felt this strange and strong emotion and couldn't help but shed tears: "Brother!"

Jinzhong was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground and said, "My Queen, please be so rude to me. I am not worthy of being your brother."

Surrounded by palace maids and eunuchs, Jinzhong dared not rashly acknowledge her relationship. No matter if it was true or not, once this matter was exposed, losing his life would be a small matter. If the queen was really his sister, wouldn't he be implicated?

Jinzhong knelt on the ground, his mind in a thousand twists and turns. Bai Ruiji understood Jinzhong's concerns, and asked everyone to go out and guard the door, and then she helped Jinzhong up with her own hands.

"You are my brother, I won't make a mistake"

"Empress" Jinzhong also recognized Bai Ruiji, but she was the legitimate daughter of the Fucha family and she absolutely could not have a eunuch brother like herself.

"Your Majesty, I am just a eunuch. Your Majesty should not recognize me."

"Brother, you became what you are now because of me. How could I stop recognizing you as my brother just because of this?"

Jinzhong wiped his tears and finally reached out to hug Bai Ruiji: "I'm sorry, brother is so useless"

"How could that be, brother? If it weren't for you, I would have starved to death. How could I be the Queen Fucha Ruiji today?" Bai Ruiji didn't want to see Jinzhong blaming her like this, no matter whether it was the original owner or the current Bai Ruiji.

Bai Ruiji comforted Jinzhong and told him about her experiences over the years. Jinzhong felt relieved after hearing that Bai Ruiji had not suffered, but then he felt a panic.

"My lady, your belly, aren't you pregnant?" Feeling Bai Ruiji's flat belly, Jinzhong touched her belly in disbelief: "Could it be that you are faking pregnancy? Sister, you are so confused!"
