Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem
Chapter 377 The Queen's Letter
The emperor looked at Yongqi expressionlessly, but Concubine Yao spoke coquettishly to the side, "Fourth Prince, are you questioning the emperor's wisdom with these words?
What? You don’t believe that the emperor can find out the truth and clear Xilinjueluo’s name? Or are you determined to protect Xilinjueluo?”
Concubine Yao was keenly aware that although the emperor remained silent, he snorted very lightly from his nose, obviously agreeing with what she said.
Gently stroking the gorgeous red gold necklace inlaid with rubies hanging on her chest, Yaopin seemed to remember something and said suddenly,
"By the way, it seems that the Xilin Gioro clan was assigned to the Fourth Prince by the Empress.
For some unknown reason, the Queen was upset and lost her mind.
This Xilinjueluo family has always been on good terms with the Empress, so it is not surprising that she would do something so out of the ordinary and kill someone."
"How dare you slander the Empress Dowager? Do you still have any sense of propriety as a concubine?"
Yongqi couldn't stop cursing.
Concubine Yao shrank back behind the emperor in fear, her chest pressed against his arm, and whispered "Your Majesty" in his ear in a sweet voice.
With such a beautiful woman by his side, the emperor felt itchy and scolded Yongji, "Yongji, Concubine Yao is your stepmother. Who taught you the rules to speak to her like this?"
Yongqi suppressed his anger, frowned and remained silent.
The emperor seemed to be thinking of something unpleasant, and said, "The queen did have inappropriate words and deeds, which is something that everyone in the palace has witnessed.
If she hadn't lost her mind, how could she have thrown the Queen's seal away at the gate of Yikun Palace like a piece of trash.
On this point, Concubine Yao was not wrong.
When it comes to being gentle and demure, not to mention Concubine Yao, even Concubine Ling is more pleasing to me than the Empress."
Talking about Ruyi, Yongqi raised his eyes like a young deer, looking at the emperor sadly, "Father, you are hurting the Empress Dowager's heart by saying this. The Empress Dowager has been devoted to you..."
"She is devoted to me, so she shouldn't disobey me!" The emperor was so angry that he waved his hand and swept the memorials on the table to the ground.
"I am merciful not to vent my anger on you. If you dare to plead for the queen, you will never come to the Yangxin Palace again."
Yongqi was dejected, but Concubine Yao's eyes became brighter.
He is never allowed to go to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity again. In other words, doesn't that mean he has lost the emperor's favor forever and has no chance of becoming an emperor?
If this were true, it would save her and Yongsheng a lot of effort.
Concubine Yao pursed her lips, pressed her chest against the emperor's arm, and added fuel to the fire with another round of instigation.
Unfortunately, Yongqi became depressed and never mentioned the empress again.
However, when the Yikun Palace heard about the affair between Yongqi and Xilin Gioro, they could no longer keep their cool and sent Rong Pei with a handwritten letter.
The emperor only glanced at the handwritten letter and threw it into the oil lamp beside him impatiently.
Yaopin was very sorry that she couldn't see the contents of the handwritten letter. However, just looking at the emperor's reaction, she knew that the contents on it must not be pleasing.
Sure enough, after the emperor saw that the handwritten letter had turned to ashes, he sneered indifferently, "The queen has already handed over the imperial seal, what qualifications does she have to plead for others?
Rong Pei, go back and tell her that I will temporarily place Xilin Gioro under house arrest in Prince Zhong's mansion, not because she is the queen, but because Yongqi is the first child of me and her.
However, if she wants to rely on our relationship to do things in front of me in the future, she should come and admit her mistake as soon as possible. Otherwise, the Forbidden City will not be much of a queen if she is added or removed! "
Rong Peifu bowed and replied, "I will convey every word of the emperor's words to the queen.
But the Emperor knows the Queen's temper. If she is asked to apologize, I'm afraid she would rather perish together with him."
"You... are indeed a bad-tempered master who has spoiled a bad-tempered servant. Get out!"
After sending Rong Pei and Yong Ji away, the emperor was still furious and called Li Yu over, giving him urgent instructions.
"The queen has behaved inappropriately. From today on, she will be imprisoned in the Yikun Palace, and the servants who serve her are not allowed to leave without the emperor's order.
The harem cannot be without a master for a day. Although Concubine Yu and Concubine Hui assisted in managing the six palaces without fault, they were rebellious in character and were inadequate in serving.
"I will promote Concubine Yao to Concubine Yao. From now on, all matters in the harem will be handled by Concubine Yao, and Concubine Ling will assist her."
"This……"
Li Yu's knees went weak and he knelt down in panic.
Although the emperor had sent guards to surround the Yikun Palace in the past, this was the first time he officially issued an order to imprison the queen.
It is not difficult to guess the deeper meaning behind this.
The Queen, I'm afraid she will be deposed.
The emperor said it casually, but Li Yu dared not accept it.
Just this moment of hesitation was enough to arouse the emperor's dissatisfaction.
"Why, Li Yu, are you going to disobey me too?"
Li Yu was extremely conflicted, lowering his head and trembling, "Your servant... Your servant dare not. Please think twice..."
"Useless thing..." The emperor looked at Li Yu with disgust. Jinzhong seized the opportunity, came forward and pushed Li Yu away.
"Your Majesty, please be at ease. I will serve you writing materials right away."
When the emperor saw Jinzhong's fawning appearance, he felt relieved and his expression brightened.
Yaopin was secretly happy, but her face was filled with fear and trepidation. She knelt down quickly and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not accept your kindness.
If Your Majesty needs me to help manage the six palaces, I will not refuse even if I don’t have a title. Please take back your order.”
The emperor looked at Concubine Yao gently and said with relief, "I knew you were sensible.
I have been feeling depressed these days. Thanks to you for being my confidant and urging the imperial physician to cook soup and medicine for me in various ways.
Don't worry, I see all your merits. If I say you deserve it, then you deserve it."
Concubine Yao's eyes flickered, but she was still a little nervous.
"These are just my duties as a concubine. Your Majesty values me, and I am grateful.
But...but the position of a concubine is precious, and I have little experience, and have never managed the affairs of the harem. Besides, the sisters in the palace have many misunderstandings about me.
If I were to be promoted so hastily, I'm afraid it would be hard for the sisters in the harem to be convinced."
The emperor waved his hand, signaling Concubine Yao to stand up.
Then he pulled her into his arms and said lovingly, "Although there are many concubines in the palace with more experience than you, none of them is more favored by me than you.
If there is anything you are unfamiliar with or confused about in palace affairs, let Concubine Ling help you.
She has the same gentle personality as you, and is meticulous and cautious, so there's no doubt that nothing will go wrong.
It doesn’t matter if other concubines misunderstand you. As long as I am here, you have nothing to fear.
You can just stay by my side and give birth to a brother or sister for our Yongxuan..."
"emperor……"
