Ruyi frowned slightly, with a hint of disgust in her eyes, "Noble Concubine Gao, you don't have to worry about my affairs. But you should worry more about yourself when you have time. After all, there is only one princess for so many years."

Gao Xiyue's face changed, and she was about to explode, but Concubine Chun hurried out to smooth things over, "Alright, alright, all the sisters are family, please don't hurt the harmony."

Gao Xiyue didn't just put up with it. She hated it most when others talked about her Jingxue.

"Princess, what's wrong? That's the princess that the Queen gave birth to after taking good care of me and helping me recuperate. She's my baby."

Gao Xiyue glanced at Ruyi. Her daughter was blessed by the Queen!

"Rather than worrying about my princess, you should take good care of Yonghui and stop focusing on people you shouldn't be focusing on."

As she spoke, she subconsciously looked at Shuangxi beside her, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes, and she almost ordered Shuangxi to beat Ruyi.

But suddenly, she seemed to remember something, turned her head to look at Rong Yin, and saw that Rong Yin looked a little tired, so she suppressed her anger and gritted her teeth secretly, "Today, for the sake of the queen, I will not bother with you."

Jin Yuyan watched the excitement from the side, with a gloating smile on her lips, "Noble Concubine Xian, Sister Gao is also happy for you. But then again, it is also a blessing for this little Lingzi to serve you. I heard that he is very careful in his work, and I believe he can serve you properly."

Her words were like a thorn, choking Ruyi's heart.

Hai Lan stood aside, her eyes twinkling, and she spoke gently, "Sister, you are like this now, it's really enviable. But sister, you have to be careful, don't lose your sense of propriety and make the emperor unhappy."

After hearing this, Ruyi felt very upset, but she couldn't say anything.

Wei Yanwan stood behind Rongyin and served her. She lowered her eyes and looked at Ruyi thoughtfully, secretly feeling fortunate in her heart.

At this moment, her mentality is completely different from that of her previous life. Seeing Ruyi getting into trouble, she only feels happy.

Rong Yin coughed lightly, breaking the awkward atmosphere. "Noble Concubine Xian, no matter what, as a noble concubine now, you must set an example, serve the emperor well, and continue the royal family's offspring. Don't let the emperor down."

However, Ruyi seemed not to hear anything. She looked drowsy and didn't even lift her eyelids.

Hai Lan looked at Rong Yin, then at Ruyi, and lowered her eyes slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.

Rongyin looked at Ruyi like this, and for some reason, a strange feeling suddenly flashed through her mind.

She remembered the "Theory of Rewards and Punishments" that Ruyi had talked about in her previous life. At that moment, she was actually eager to try it out. She wondered how Ruyi felt about the "Theory of Rewards and Punishments" that she had carefully selected and thought up in her previous life?

But soon, she held back. After all, the current situation was different from that in her previous life, and she was too lazy to trouble Ruyi with the details.

"Okay, let's stop here for today's greetings. Sisters, please go back." Rong Yin said softly.

Ruyi stood up and left Changchun Palace without looking back.

Gao Xiyue looked at her back and snorted coldly, "Hmph, let's see how long she can be so proud."

Concubine Chun shook her head helplessly, "Sister, don't get angry with her anymore. It's not good for your health if you get angry."

Gao Xiyue rolled her eyes at Concubine Chun and said, "You are so kind, but look at her arrogant look. I cannot swallow this."

Jin Yuyan fanned the flames, "Sister Gao, don't be angry, let's just wait and see, she will eventually fall."

Ruyi returned to Yiku Palace and sat on a chair, looking tired.

Ling Yunche closed his eyes and knew that Ruyi had suffered a lot for him. Those women in the harem would definitely use him to attack Ruyi. "My queen, don't take those people's words too seriously. They are deliberately trying to anger you."

Ruyi smiled bitterly, "How could I not know? It's just that in this harem, there are calculations everywhere. I am really a little tired."

Ling Yunche looked at Ruyi distressedly, "Your Majesty, you must take care of yourself. No matter what happens, I will always be by your side."

Ruyi nodded slightly, "With you here, I feel better. But I'm afraid there will be follow-up to today's incident, so we must prepare early."

On the other side, Gao Xiyue returned to her palace, still furious. "Shuangxi, look at Ruyi's arrogant look. I must find a chance to teach her a lesson."

Shuangxi quickly advised: "Your Highness, please calm down first. Concubine Xian has just been promoted to Imperial Concubine, and the Emperor still has some favor towards her. We can't act rashly."

Gao Xiyue frowned, "Huh, favor? How can the emperor not mind what's going on between her and Ling Yunche? I don't believe she can keep being so proud."

Amid the ever-changing situation in the harem, everyone has their own ulterior motives, and a bigger storm is quietly brewing.

Rong Yin was in Changchun Palace, thinking alone.

She didn't know whether she could control the situation, but as the queen, she had to maintain the stability of the harem, even if it came at a great cost.

At this time, the emperor was in the Yangxin Palace listening to Jinzhong's report on the situation in the harem, with a meaningful smile on his face.

His feelings towards Ruyi became more complicated, with anger and suspicion, as well as an indescribable attachment.

He didn't know whether what he did was right or wrong, but he didn't want to let Ruyi go easily, nor did he want her to get out of trouble easily.

The struggle in the harem is like an invisible net, and he must make it clear to Ruyi who her real backer is.

Jinzhong stood aside and looked at the emperor somewhat numbly. He really didn't understand why the emperor wanted to add drama to himself at this time, fighting in the palace like a woman for Ruyi and Ling Yunche who had become a eunuch.
