Fu Cha Rongyin travels into Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace

A group of palace maids died inexplicably in the Yikun Palace. The news spread like a gust of wind, quietly passing through every corner of the harem, but did not cause any ripples.

It was as if those lives had never existed and disappeared silently.

The entire harem was silent, everyone lowered their eyes, not daring to ask the slightest question, for fear that the deathly aura of the Yikun Palace would contaminate them.

Gao Xiyue lazily leaned on the couch, playing with a strand of her hair in her hand, but her eyes were sharp, "The matter between Ruyi and Ling Yunche is really getting bigger and bigger. I didn't expect Ruyi to be such a fearless person."

She frowned slightly, thinking secretly in her heart.

Mo Xin, who was standing by, said softly, "My queen, please don't get too involved in this matter. It would be bad if you get into trouble."

Gao Xiyue snorted, "Of course I know, but this matter has caused a lot of uproar, and I want to take a look at the excitement. But I am afraid of causing trouble to the Queen, after all, the Queen has always been cautious."

Mo Xin nodded, "You are right, Madam. Let's just watch from a distance and don't get close."

Gao Xiyue rolled her eyes and said, "No, you go. Go to Changchun Palace to find Wei Yanwan and ask her for information. She is by the Queen's side and must know a lot."

Mo Xin hesitated a little, "My Lady, this..."

Gao Xiyue waved her hands impatiently, "Just say that I asked you to go. If she knows what's good for her, she'll tell you. If she refuses, come back and tell me. I have plenty of ways to make her go."

Mo Xin responded and hurried to Changchun Palace.

In Changchun Palace, Wei Yanwan was directing the palace maids to organize things. When she saw Mo Xin coming, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, "Miss Mo Xin, why are you here?"

Mo Xin bowed and said, "Miss Wei, my queen heard about the incident in Yikun Palace and asked me to come and ask you about it."

Wei Yanwan smiled slightly, "The Imperial Concubine is also concerned about this matter?"

Mo Xin nodded, "Yes, this matter has caused such a big stir, and the queen is very curious. I wonder if the young lady can tell me something?"

Wei Yanwan looked around and lowered her voice, "I'm telling you, don't spread it. This time there was a big mess in Yikun Palace, and many people died."

Mo Xin's eyes widened. "Ah? How could this happen? Who did it?"

Wei Yanwan's eyes flashed with mystery, "It's Jinzhong who is beside the emperor."

Mo Xin gasped, "Jinzhong? Why would he do this?"

Wei Yanwan sneered, "Do you even need to ask? Of course it's for the emperor, to help him deal with those people he doesn't want to see."

Mo Xin sighed: "Jinzhong is really a talent. His skills... It's a pity that he can only stay with the emperor. If he can work for the queen, he will be even more powerful."

Wei Yanwan smiled and said, "This is not something we can decide."

Mo Xin asked some more details, then said goodbye and returned to Gao Xiyue's palace.

"Your Majesty, I found out." Mo Xin said breathlessly.

Gao Xiyue sat up straight and said, "Tell me quickly, what happened?"

Mo Xin told Wei Yanwan everything she heard from her.

After listening to this, Gao Xiyue couldn't help but sigh, "Jinzhong, Jinzhong, he is such a powerful character. His methods are amazing."

As she was talking, a little palace maid came in and said, "Your Majesty, someone close to the Queen came to tell you that the Queen has prepared many exquisite snacks for you to try."

Gao Xiyue's eyes lit up, "Really? The Queen is so kind." She stood up excitedly, "Moxin, come on, dress me up. I want to look beautiful when I meet the Queen."

Mo Xin smiled and replied, "Yes."

Gao Xiyue sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror, her eyes full of anticipation, "I have to dress well this time, I can't lose my manners."

While combing Gao Xiyue's hair, Mo Xin said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. With your natural beauty and careful dressing, you will surely impress the Queen."

Gao Xiyue nodded with satisfaction, "Well, bring me my most beautiful dress, as well as the bracelet and hairpin given by the Queen, and I will wear them all."

Mo Xin took out clothes from the closet and put them on Gao Xiyue, and then put on a bracelet and a hairpin for her. Gao Xiyue looked at herself in the mirror and turned around. "How is it? Am I beautiful?"

Mo Xin smiled and said, "My Lady, you are like a fairy descending from heaven, so beautiful."

Gao Xiyue smiled proudly, "Let's go, don't keep the Queen waiting for too long."

Along the way, Gao Xiyue was in a good mood and her steps were much lighter. When she arrived at Changchun Palace, she smiled and said to the palace maid at the door: "Go and inform them that I am here."

After the maid went in to report, she came out quickly, "Your Highness, the Queen is waiting for you inside."

Gao Xiyue walked into the hall and saw the queen sitting on the couch, so she bowed deeply and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. May you live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

The queen stood up with a smile, "Xiyue, get up quickly and try the snacks I just made."

Gao Xiyue stood up and walked to the Queen's side and sat down. "Thank you, Your Majesty. You've taken so much trouble."

The queen smiled and said, "You don't have to be so polite. I know you like sweets, so these snacks are specially made for you."

Gao Xiyue looked at the exquisite snacks on the table, her eyes sparkling, "Your Majesty is so kind to me, this snack looks delicious." She picked up a piece, put it in her mouth, and tasted it carefully, "Mm, it's delicious, Your Majesty's cooking skills are getting better and better."

The queen smiled and said, "As long as you like it. By the way, things have been a bit turbulent in the palace lately. Have you heard anything about it?"

Gao Xiyue swallowed the snack in her mouth and said, "Your Majesty, I heard about what happened in Yikun Palace. It was really scary."

The queen frowned slightly. "Yes, this matter has become too serious. I am also very worried. However, we just need to do our own thing and not get involved."

Gao Xiyue nodded, "Your Majesty is right, I understand. However, I heard that it was Jinzhong who was beside the emperor who did it. Your Majesty, tell me, how could Jinzhong be so bold?"

There was a hint of deep meaning in the queen's eyes. "Jinzhong is the emperor's confidant, so he is naturally working for the emperor. We are in this palace, so there are some things that we just need to know, and don't say too much."

Gao Xiyue nodded quickly, "Yes, Madam, I'll make a note of it."

The queen looked at Gao Xiyue with a hint of satisfaction in her eyes, "Xiyue, you look good recently, and it seems that you are doing well."

Gao Xiyue smiled and said, "It's all thanks to Your Majesty. With Your Majesty's care, how can I be good?"

The queen smiled and patted Gao Xiyue's hand. "You have such a sweet mouth. By the way, your dress is so beautiful. The bracelet and hairpin suit you very well."

Gao Xiyue was a little proud, "This is all a gift from the Queen. I like it very much, so I wore it specially for the Queen to see."

The queen nodded, "You are thoughtful. Just like what I give you, it's fine. If you want anything in the future, just tell me."

Gao Xiyue's eyes flashed with surprise, "Thank you, Your Majesty. You are so kind to me."

The two chatted for a while, and the queen suddenly asked, "Xiyue, how do you think Ruyi will respond this time?"

Gao Xiyue thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I think Ruyi is not someone who can be easily dealt with. She will definitely not sit still and wait for death. However, this matter is so serious that it will not be easy for her to escape."

The Queen nodded slightly, "Well, Ruyi is indeed smart, but I'm afraid she will have to put in some effort this time. Let's just wait and see how the situation develops."

Gao Xiyue replied: "Yes, Madam, I will obey you."

At this time, Wei Yanwan walked in, "Your Majesty, Imperial Concubine, the freshly brewed tea is here."

The queen smiled and said, "Bring it here quickly so that we can have a taste."

Wei Yanwan brought the tea to the table. Gao Xiyue smelled it and said, "This tea has a rich aroma. It must be good tea."

The queen picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Hmm, this tea is good. Xiyue, you should try it too."

Gao Xiyue picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Madam, this tea is really good. It leaves a lingering fragrance on my lips and teeth."

The queen smiled and said, "This is the new tribute tea this year. I kept some of it and wanted to taste it with you."

Gao Xiyue smiled and said, "Your Majesty always has good things. It is my blessing to be able to drink tea with you."

The three of them chatted while drinking tea, and the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.

Gao Xiyue felt particularly comfortable in Changchun Palace. Being so close to the Queen, she felt that her position was more stable.

The queen looked at Gao Xiyue, secretly calculating in her heart.

She knew that Gao Xiyue was a useful person. As long as she could win him over, she would be able to use him for her own purposes in the future.

Gao Xiyue, on the other hand, was devoted to pleasing the queen, hoping to gain more protection in the palace.

Unconsciously, it was getting dark, Gao Xiyue stood up and said goodbye, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, I should go back, thank you for your hospitality today."

The queen also stood up and said, "Well, you can go back now. Be careful on the road. Come and visit me often when you have time."

Gao Xiyue smiled and nodded, "Yes, Madam, I will take my leave."

Gao Xiyue took Mo Xin out of Changchun Palace, thinking about today's experience along the way, "I am so happy today. The Queen is so kind to me."

Mo Xin smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen values ​​you, you must serve her well in the future."

Gao Xiyue nodded, "Of course, as long as we can follow the Queen, we will have a good life in this palace."

After returning to her palace, Gao Xiyue sat on the couch and said to Mo Xin: "The news we learned today must not be spread out. Let's just pretend we don't know."

Mo Xin nodded, "My lady, don't worry, I understand."

Gao Xiyue smiled with satisfaction, leaned back on the couch, and then rested peacefully.

Li Yu was ruthlessly thrown into the Ministry of Punishment, and even the young eunuchs who usually followed him around were gone.

Jinzhong has been serving the emperor carefully these days, not daring to even breathe.

He knew that the emperor was very nervous at the moment, and he didn't want to say the wrong thing at this moment and ruin the opportunity he had finally obtained.

The emperor sat on the dragon throne with a frown on his face, his eyes revealing complexity and fatigue.

When he first heard the rumors, he didn't believe them.

But now, after hearing Ruyi say with her own ears that the boots were embroidered by her herself, what is there to doubt?

If Ruyi had admitted it openly, perhaps he would not have been so conflicted, but her secretive look made the emperor involuntarily think of the past events in the Jiangning Palace.

In the Jiangning Palace, Ruyi fell into the water while trying to save Ling Yunche and lost the child.

This matter has always been a hurdle that the emperor could not overcome.

The scene at that time kept emerging in the emperor's mind: Ruyi's panicked expression, desperate actions, and the struggle in the water.

He thought to himself, "Whose child was that missing? Why did Ruyi lose her composure at that time? Was it just to save a guard?"

The more the emperor thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed to him. He knew that Ruyi cared about Yonghui, but she fell into the water under the pretext of saving her benefactor. Her words and actions seemed like she had lost her mind.

"Is Ruyi really kind by nature, or is there something wrong with that child?" This question was like a poisonous snake, tightly entwining the emperor's heart and making him uneasy day and night.

These days, the emperor was in great torment and was troubled by this problem every day.

He paced back and forth in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, stopping from time to time to look into the distance with empty eyes.

He felt as if he was trapped in a huge fog and couldn't find the exit.

And, most importantly, he didn't have the courage to face Rong Yin.

Whenever the emperor thought of Rongyin, he felt filled with guilt.

A guard dared to openly point at the queen and say that she would not live long, and his beloved concubine Ruyi contradicted the queen for that guard. This series of events was like a mess and he didn't know what to do.

Up to now, no one has dealt with him. He is like an ostrich, hiding from the queen and escaping from everything.

Jinzhong watched the emperor sighing every day and was secretly calculating in his heart.

He gently poured a cup of tea for the emperor, then bowed slightly and said carefully, "Your Majesty, the queen's health has been getting better day by day. You are busy with government affairs all day, why don't you send something to express your concern for the queen?"

The emperor was slightly startled and looked at Jinzhong with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Yes, before I decide how to deal with Ruyi, I can’t ignore the Queen’s side.

If I send something over, it would not only express my feelings, but also allow me to find out the Queen's attitude towards Ruyi.

So the emperor nodded slightly and handed the matter directly to Jinzhong.

"You are right. I will leave this matter to you. Make sure you do it properly."

Jinzhong received the order and felt relieved.

He had to take this opportunity to go to Changchun Palace to find out the Queen Mother's attitude so that he could speak in front of the Emperor.

This was different from Li Yu who would go to Yiku Palace whenever he had nothing to do. Even if he wanted to go to Changchun Palace, it was the emperor who gave the order himself, and no one could say anything wrong.

He knew that this was a good opportunity to show his abilities. If he did well, he might even be able to gain a higher status in the emperor's heart.

After he left the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, he immediately began to prepare a gift for the Queen.

On the other side, Rong Yin was in her palace, quietly looking at the scenery outside the window.

Although her face was still a little pale, her spirit and aura were very different.

Wei Yanwan has become a completely different person since the Empress stood up for her that day. Although the Emperor did not say how to deal with Ruyi, she found out what that idiot Li Yu had done, and gave惢心 the opportunity to completely expose the incident of the boots in front of the Emperor.

In her previous life, she had served the emperor like a slave for too long, and she knew better than anyone how suspicious the emperor was. Ruyi was finished this time.

When she turned to look at the Queen, the smile on her face was sweet and warm.

"My lady, you are not fully recovered yet, so you should go back to bed and rest."

Rong Yin shook her head slightly and said softly, "It's okay, sit here for a while, you'll feel better."
