Bai Ruiji burst into tears as she spoke the last part, and the madness in her eyes frightened Yixiu. Back then, she ran around the mansion seeking medical treatment in her arms while holding Honghui who had a fever, and watched Honghui die bit by bit in her arms.

"Mother, don't cry. Honghui is fine. Just take the medicine and have a good sleep, and he'll be fine..."

"If she wants to take my life, let her do it! But don't take my son's life!"

The past events flooded into her mind like a tsunami. Yixiu couldn't help but feel red in anger. How could she not understand the pain of losing her son? If she were Bai Ruiji, she would definitely not let go of the person who hurt her.

But now she is Fu Cha Langya, and she has a child. She can't let the stable harem be disturbed by Bai Ruiji, a southern palace musician. The disobedient concubines in the harem don't deserve to live.

Yi Xiu looked at Bai Ruiji with murderous intent in her eyes, but her face showed empathy and sincerity, "I am also a person with children, so I naturally understand what you are thinking, but do you really think that Concubine Xian harmed you?"

Bai Ruiji thought that the Queen had decided to protect Concubine Xian in order not to anger the Emperor, and said bluntly: "With all the evidence, how could it be false?"

"Frame-ups always require both human and material evidence." Yixiu calmly dropped a thunderbolt and continued, "Noble Lady Xian was born into the Ulanara clan, which is still a big Manchu family no matter how poor it is. She has always been favored and has a deep affection for the emperor. Why would she be jealous of you?"

Bai Ruiji was still unconvinced and said, "Of course it's because she has been favored for many years but has no children, so she is jealous of my pregnancy."

In her heart, Yixiu laughed at Bai Ruiji's stupidity, thinking that maybe she could use this sharp knife in the future. She said, "With the emperor's love for Concubine Xian, your child would be taken away to Concubine Xian to raise as soon as he was born. Have you forgotten what Concubine Jia did at that time?"

Bai Ruiji was speechless. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that Concubine Xian had no reason to harm her, and there was no benefit in harming her. Then who could want to harm her? Who could it be?

Seeing that it was almost done, Yixiu made a final summary and ordered the guests to leave. "Noble Lady Mei, you can't just look at the surface of things in the palace. Before you go crazy, think more about why you entered the palace in the first place."

Bai Ruiji left Yonghe Palace in a daze. On the way back, she kept thinking about the Queen's last words. Why did she enter the palace in the first place? Was it to disrupt the harem? No, this was just a task given to her by the Queen Mother.

Then why did she enter the palace? It seemed that she wanted to be rich and powerful, because she was unwilling to live like an ant in the Nan Mansion. But now, she is already a noble lady. If she can find a way to make further progress, she will be the head of the palace. But what is she doing?

Ever since she lost her child, she has been crazy about revenge for her child, and sometimes she is resentful of the emperor. The queen is right, she shouldn't go on like this, but she still can't help but think of her murdered child.

While Bai Ruiji was being pacified, Yixiu in Yikun Palace also did not forget to replace most of the guards with her own people. This was to let her know what Ruyi would do next and to prevent people with ulterior motives from harming Ruyi.

It was a rare opportunity to do a good deed, so Yixiu would of course tell Hongli about it, and suggested that Hongli also send someone to look after the child to prevent people with ulterior motives from taking advantage of the situation.

Hongli was very satisfied with Yixiu's thorough work, so he agreed immediately and praised Yixiu. Then, for some reason, he started to find fault, "Does the queen not believe that Ruyi is plotting to murder the heir to the throne?"

Yixiu said with a worried look on her face: "Although I don't know Concubine Xian very well, I know that Concubine Xian is infatuated with the emperor. I think Concubine Xian would not have the heart to hurt the emperor's offspring, let alone make the emperor sad."

No way! If only that idiot Ruyi had this ability!
