Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine

However, the news of their meeting soon spread throughout the Forbidden City.

Yixiu was actually quite happy for the sisters.

She had never experienced true sisterhood, but when she saw such true sisterhood, she also wanted to fulfill some of it.

What Yinzhen saw was not their sisterhood, but that the retired emperor did not seem to dislike the Eighth Princess anymore.

He began to ponder the emperor's thoughts again.

Yinreng was the most aggressive in his fight for the throne. The emperor now seems to have forgotten nothing about it.

What on earth is the emperor thinking?

-----------------

Yinzhen went to see Yixiu with questions.

Yixiu smiled and said, "Your Majesty is worrying too much. I'm afraid that the Emperor now feels that everything is settled. So he doesn't think too much about it."

"Yinreng and Lao Ba want to come back now, but that is not right and not justifiable."

"Even the Emperor wouldn't think of doing this."

Now when Yinzhen listened to Yixiu's words again, he felt that her views were just those of a woman.

Yixiu glanced at Yinzhen and knew that he did not listen to her words, but it was better this way.

In order to prevent Yinzhen from thinking too much about her, Yinzhen probably thought that she was nothing special.

"You only stayed in the palace at the beginning, and you have never faced the things happening in the court. You don't understand." Yinzhen said to her.

Yi Xiu said: "What Si Lang said is true. I really don't understand these things. I just put forward my own ideas."

"I was able to see how much the Emperor doted on my second brother."

Yinzhen suddenly seemed to have thought of something and asked Yixiu: "By the way, you have to go to the temporary palace every day to pay respects to the Empress Dowager. When you go tomorrow, try to find out what the Empress Dowager has to say. She is the Emperor's bedmate, and I'm afraid she knows the Emperor's thoughts better than anyone else."

Yixiu agreed on the surface, but couldn't help thinking in her heart that even though Defei had become the empress dowager, she and the retired emperor were probably as close as a couple.

The retired emperor's heart was with Shufei and Yifei, and he only gave a little attention to Defei, but not much.

I'm afraid that even if he has any thoughts, he won't let the Queen Mother know.

-----------------

When Yixiu went to the palace, Ruoxi had just returned.

When Ruoxi saw Ruozhu, her face was full of smiles.

"My slave, please pay your respects to the Queen."

Yixiu actually has a good impression of Ruoxi.

She is young and lively, and her views are somewhat different from those of the world. Although she sometimes speaks without restraint, she is a kind-hearted person and is Ruozhu's younger sister.

"You two sisters have such a good relationship." Yixiu sighed.

"I am very envious of the relationship between the Empress, Concubine Qi, and Concubine Chun."

Yixiu’s face froze.

Okay, that's fine.

At least it didn't say that she and Rouze had a good relationship.

After a while, Yinreng came towards him. He didn't expect Yixiu to be with Ruoxi. He was stunned for a moment and saluted, "Empress."

A hint of unwillingness flashed across Yinreng's slightly lowered eyes.

"Second Master."

At this time, Ruoxi smiled and said to Yixiu, "My Queen, it was the Second Master who asked the Emperor to let me go to see you this time."

Yinreng said: "It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning, but it's also good to let Miss Ruoxi meet her sister."

Yixiu said: "Second Master is so enthusiastic in helping Ruoxi, you deserve this praise."

"The Queen wants to visit the Queen Mother?"

"Exactly."

Yinreng looked at Yixiu and raised his eyebrows slightly, "I'm going to visit my father, too."

Ruoxi went with him.

Yixiu soon sat down in front of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother's brows were not relaxed.

"I noticed that the Empress Dowager looked worried. She is in the palace..."

The Queen Mother said, "When I miss the Emperor, I can never see him."

Yixiu continued, "That's right. Now the Emperor and my second brother are always together. The Empress is not allowed to talk to the Emperor even if she wants to."

The Queen Mother glanced at Yixiu, and a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes.

"The Emperor sent you here, didn't he?"

"My Queen Mother is very observant. Nothing can escape your eyes."

Yixiu did not cover up for Yinzhen at all.

Does he pretend that no one knows about his suspicion?

The Queen Mother said: "It is useless for the Emperor to come to me about this matter. You and the Emperor have a good relationship, but I am afraid you don't understand the reason."

Yixiu wanted to say that she really understood.

When the relationship is bad, one can only guess what the emperor is thinking.

"What the Empress said is true."

The Queen Mother probably didn't want to see the bloody storm in the harem of the previous dynasty, so she added after a while, "Go and tell the Emperor that the Emperor has no other intentions."

Yixiu agreed, but she felt that Yinzhen might not believe it.

-----------------

At this time, Yinreng had already paid his respects to the retired emperor.

Now that the emperor is no longer in charge of official duties, he doesn't seem to be so stressed out and doesn't need to be served everywhere.

He only kept Sandezi by his side.

Ruoxi came out with Yinreng.

Yinreng said, "Ruoxi, in a few years, you can leave the palace, right?"

Ruoxi said: "Yes, palace maids can leave the palace when they are 25 years old."

"What are your plans after leaving the palace?"

Ruoxi thought about it, shook her head and smiled, "This servant has never thought about it. I have been in the palace for a long time, and my age has faded."

Yinreng pressed on, "The Emperor has treated you well, have you ever thought about staying? When a woman reaches 25, it is very difficult to find a good husband even if she leaves the palace."

Ruoxi smiled faintly: "It depends on fate to be together. If it doesn't work out, the money I have saved in the palace over the years is enough for me to buy a few acres of land and a house."

"How can Bo Tian and Zhuang Zi be worthy of your status? You are the general's daughter after all, why do you have to be so simple?"

Ruoxi said, "Father is far away in the northwest, and I can't go back. I'm afraid that after I leave the palace, I will be in the capital or nearby."

Ruoxi thought for a moment and said, "If nothing works, I can open a teahouse. Didn't the Queen's cousin open a teahouse? I have mastered the skill of making tea now."

"Your cooking skills are indeed good." Yinreng asked her again, "Are you willing to stay with me?"

Yinreng asked this suddenly and Ruoxi was startled.

But she soon realized what Yinreng's secret gestures towards her during this period meant.

But after all, she had served the emperor for many years, so she quickly calmed down.

"Second Master, you are joking. If you miss the tea I made, I will open a teahouse someday. You can just come and drink. I will not charge you a penny."

"You know I'm not talking about tea."

Ruoxi's smile did not fade: "If not drinking tea, what else could it be? I ask myself, this is the only skill of mine that could make Second Master take a fancy to me."

Yinreng was a little impatient.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about."

After becoming a commoner in the past few years, he has nothing else to do, but he has given birth to many children. Now, like Yinzhen before, he is somewhat obsessed with women.

"Could it be that you look down on me because I am now a commoner and unworthy of your position as the tea-serving maid in front of your father?"

Ruoxi said, "Second Master, what are you talking about? How could this be considered as such? In my heart, you are my master. Your status is much higher than mine."

"Then why don't you agree? Come out with me and follow me."

Yinreng said in a rather sinister tone: "Follow me, you will enjoy endless glory. Even though I have lost my power now, who knows if I will make a comeback in the future."

Ruoxi's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.

What on earth is the Second Master talking about? Does he know that if the Emperor hears this, he will not let him go.

But the emperor has been too good to him recently, so he might have some delusional thoughts in his mind.

But he dared to say these words in front of me. Could it be that he was sure of me?

When Ruoxi thought of this, she decided not to confront Yinreng head-on.

Thinking that the Queen was still in the palace, she decided to pretend to agree to Yinreng to save herself.
