Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Wanwan's Daily Advancement

Chapter 535: Plenty of time to accompany the Emperor

When the Queen Mother and Empress Fucha hurried to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity hand in hand, they heard a scream coming from the house.

They both paused and their expressions changed.

Empress Fucha supported the Queen Mother and said, "My Queen Mother, please don't let anything happen to you again!"

The Queen Mother scolded, "Hurry up and break open the door! You, a slave, only know how to listen to the Emperor and let him do whatever he wants!"

Jinzhong gritted his teeth and rushed over to knock on the door. As expected, when Ruyi climbed onto the bed, she had not forgotten to lock the door from the inside.

Such cooperation actually gave him convenience.

He banged hard several times before finally pushing the door open, and then shouted at the others to step back: "If you don't want to die, don't talk nonsense! Don't look at what you shouldn't look at!"

After saying that, he made way and stood guard at the door himself.

The Queen Mother and Empress Fucha hurried in, and then hurried out again: "Where is Zhang Yun?! Go and save the Emperor!"

After a pause, the Queen Mother said grimly, "The Emperor is not well. The woman in the Yaoguan hit herself against the wall and committed suicide. It was she who just screamed. She can be considered a loyal hero!"

In fact, everyone could hear that the person who screamed just now was clearly a man.

But who dares to say this?

Because the Empress Dowager covered up for the Emperor, they were able to save their lives.

But from now on, I’m afraid I will never be able to return to the palace, and I may even be imprisoned and monitored for the rest of my life. But this is all good - if the Queen Mother and the Queen were a little more ruthless, I’m afraid everyone present today would have to die!

No matter they were eunuchs or palace maids, eunuchs or imperial doctors, they all trembled as if they had lost their parents.

Jinzhong's face was also full of fear, but more than fear, he was worried.

Seeing Jinzhong crying with tears all over his face, the Queen Mother shouted angrily, "Are you crying now? You should have risked your life to stop the Emperor a long time ago!"

Jinzhong cried and begged, "I know this is a capital crime, I just want to be with the emperor."

The Queen Mother stared at him coldly for a while, then told him to kneel down in the corridor.

Before he knelt down, Jinzhong ordered someone to bring the armchair to the Empress Dowager and Empress Fucha. Then he knelt down silently, looking towards the direction of the house and crying bitterly.

After a while, Zhang Yun came out and said, "Please make a decision, Empress Dowager. The Emperor is already terminally ill. Should we use medicine to delay his death for three to five days, or should we take medicine to wake him up and make arrangements for his funeral?"

The Queen Mother angrily said, "How can you be so useless?! Where are the others? Go and have a look! If you can't see well, I will make you suffer!"

All the imperial doctors were filled with despair - if they couldn't even cure Zhang Yun, how could they?

Everyone went in to check, but after arguing for a long time, they all came to the same conclusion as Zhang Yun - either he could stay in a coma for a few more days, or he would be awake for a while and die after his vitality was exhausted. There was no other way.

The Queen Mother closed her eyes, looked at everyone fiercely, and told Jinzhong to invite all the relatives and court officials to come over. Finally, she said in a deep voice: "Go, let the emperor wake up."

Zhang Yun and his men took the order and left. After a while, they came out with their men: "Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, and all the gentlemen, it will take at most two hours."

The Queen Mother led everyone in.

In the room, Ruyi's body had been cleared out. It was hastily wrapped in a quilt without even any clothes on, and was thrown into a side hall for the time being.

The room was packed with people.

Hongli looked to be in good spirits, but everyone knew that this was just a last gasp.

Hongli looked at everyone one by one: "Where is the Imperial Concubine?"

Jinzhong knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine is seriously ill and is on her deathbed. Imperial Doctor Li has no other options and has called several other imperial doctors for consultation. They all said that we can only do our best and leave the rest to fate."

Hongli's eyes darkened: "Ask Zhang Yun to go and see in person, after all, she is the prince's biological mother."

Empress Fucha choked up and said, "Wanwan must have guessed that the emperor was seriously ill a long time ago, and she refused to stay with me and the children, and wanted to follow the emperor."

Hongli shook his head at her and said, "Queen, remember what I told you."

He also said to the Queen Mother: "My son is unfilial. Yongyan is still young. It will be up to the Queen Mother to take care of him in the future."

He looked at the ministers again and appointed regents one by one. He instructed them on many things. He was already on his deathbed and his strength was gradually fading.

Zhang Yun hurried back: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine is eager to die and has no will to live. I'm afraid, I'm afraid she will have a hard time tonight."

Hongli stared at the curtains above the bed: "After she dies, she can be buried with me, and buried according to the rites for the queen..."

There was a lot of resentment and resentment in his eyes, and finally a dark murderous rage broke out: "Ulanara Ruyi, cut into pieces, her evil son, will be in mourning for the rest of his life, all his life, officials above the fourth rank, he will have to kneel before the coffin, demoted to a commoner, never, never..."

He hadn't finished his words, and before he could catch his breath, he died with his eyes wide open.

The Queen Mother choked up and said, "Emperor!"

Everyone started crying.

Empress Fucha gritted her teeth and endured her illness, taking care of the empress dowager while arranging the emperor's funeral.

After being so busy, I only have time to take a break in the evening.

The Queen Mother came to visit Hongli and said to Empress Fucha: "I have already checked. It was Ulanara who wanted to take revenge and drugged the emperor. The drug powder was hidden in the lining of her bellyband. It was also because the emperor was soft-hearted that she dragged him into the water. The people who served him that day..."

Empress Fucha's eyes were red. "My Queen Mother, I want to save Wanwan again. Jinzhong has served the Emperor before and is the most trusted by him. I want him to trick Wanwan and tell her that the Emperor is fine and is waiting for her to take care of him. Maybe, maybe she will get better."

The Queen Mother looked at her deeply and patted the back of her hand: "Forget it, I am old, you make the decision on these matters."

She staggered a little, and Empress Fucha quickly supported her: "Madam, no matter what, your son Wanwan and I will honor you, and Yongyan will also honor you."

The Empress Dowager looked at Yongyan, who was kneeling at the front of the mourning hall. Although the child was very young, he was already able to control his older brothers. Now he was looking at her with concern.

The Queen Mother nodded and said, "I know how filial you are."

She looked at Hongli's coffin and said, "Please send the emperor off properly."

Empress Fucha nodded with tears in her eyes and asked the head palace maid to go and release Jinzhong personally.

Jinzhong brought Jinbao into the defense, his eyes were red, and he looked pitiful as if his master had died: "Greetings, Queen, we servants... We are sorry for your trouble."

Empress Fucha said in a deep voice: "Jinzhong, you are the most trusted chief steward of the emperor. I will give you a task today, you must complete it well."

Jinzhong accepted the order in a hoarse voice: "I will do my best!"

Empress Fucha lowered her voice and said, "Go to Yongshou Palace and tell the Imperial Concubine that the Emperor is still waiting for her to take care of him. If you cannot save the Imperial Concubine's life, then you and Zhang Yun will have to guard the Imperial Mausoleum for the rest of your life!"

Jinzhong prostrated himself: "The Empress has given an order, and I dare not disobey. But the Emperor..."

Empress Fucha looked at his loyal face and glanced at Jinbao and Jinshou: "Ask your two disciples to fulfill your filial piety for you, and you just go to save the Imperial Noble Consort. If you don't come back, there will be plenty of time for you to accompany the Emperor in the future!"
