Ruyi never thought that one day, people would point fingers at her and say she had not made any progress.

Or the young man that I have always loved.

Just because I delayed him, he favored a treacherous villain?

Ruyi's eyes were red. "Your Majesty! You must have listened to Wei Yanwan's nonsense, so you are so angry with me, right?"

She stiffened her neck and said, "I just gave her a few words of advice, and she started crying and complaining to you. I am higher in rank than her, and I am the imperial concubine appointed by you. Shouldn't I teach her to be disciplined and have a sense of shame?"

Hongli didn't expect that she was so unteachable.

He hoped she could put herself in her place, but she kept on harping on his sex life.

Even if he didn't mind that she always liked to treat herself as his legal wife, no legal wife would lean against the wall and listen to what her husband did in bed!

Hongli's face darkened: "Yan Wan didn't say anything bad about you, but you rushed up to me aggressively and said something irrelevant. I was talking to you about serious matters, why did you bring up Yan Wan? No wonder she is so afraid of you!"

Ruyi was so angry that her mind was confused: "She is afraid of me? If she was afraid of me, she wouldn't come to you to slander me!"

Hongli didn't want to say anything to her: "As soon as she got on the boat, she hurried to come to me to apologize to you. If you hadn't chased her aggressively, I would have..."

He stopped talking and frowned at her: "Ruyi, I know you want to repay your kindness and find a woman that Ling Yunche likes to be his wife, but Yan Wan is now a concubine, and she doesn't like Ling Yunche at all, so don't cause trouble for her because of this.

If you must worry about Ling Yunche's marriage, I will find him a good-looking palace maid to be his wife, it would be better to find the one who is by your side, Suo Xin..."

As soon as he said this, two voices screamed at the same time: "Your Majesty!!"

There seemed to be a storm in Hongli's eyes: "Get out and slap yourself in the face."

Li Yu was stunned after exclaiming in surprise. He didn't expect that just making a sound would result in this. But he was too familiar with the emperor's tone. He was really angry.

Li Yu did not dare to delay and hurriedly retreated.

Another exclaimed Ruyi was angry and annoyed, feeling that Hongli was slapping her in the face.

For a moment, she didn't know which one to say first: "Your Majesty, Ling Yunche cannot marry Suo Xin! I promised to grant Suo Xin a marriage several years ago! ... Eunuch Li Yu is not guilty of this!"

Li Yu couldn't help but pause. A few years ago, she had agreed to grant Suo Xin a marriage?! The Imperial Concubine never said that! He, he never knew!

Hongli saw the expressions of Ruyi,惢心, and Li Yu, so how could he not understand?

He was so angry that he laughed: "You want to marry惢心 to Li Yu?"

Li Yu knelt down and opened his mouth to say something, but his emotions were churning and he didn't know what to say.

Because of Wang Qin's incident, the emperor obviously didn't like eunuchs and palace maids having sex, so he should have refused and denied it.

But this is the only chance...he can't say no!

What if!

What if the Imperial Concubine wants to tell him about惢心?

Suo Xin's face turned pale and she knelt down as well, her eyes filled with despair.

She had been cautious enough, but she never expected that her master could cause her such terrible trouble!

No, this is not the scariest thing!

The master...wouldn't she just go with the flow and assign her to Li Yu? !

Suoxin was trembling all over, and she was so scared that even her lips turned pale.

Ruyi's gaze fell on Li Yu, and then looked at惢心.

For a moment...

But she sensed Hongli's rage.

She was always the most sensitive to Hongli's joys and sorrows.

Even though he spoke harshly to her, he was just deceived by Wei Yanwan. She didn't want to make him angry and hurt himself: "How could I do something that the emperor doesn't like? It's..."

She paused, then reluctantly said, "Back then, I and Suo Xin were trapped in the cold palace. We were from the same hometown as Suo Xin. Imperial Doctor Jiang Yubin saved our lives. Later, when we left the cold palace, I wanted to marry Suo Xin to Jiang Yubin."

Hongli looked at Ruyi deeply and said, "Since the marriage was promised so early, let's get married after we return this time."

He did not ask her again why she deliberately kept惢心 after the marriage proposal.

After all, she was his childhood sweetheart, and she was just as calculating as the other girls in the palace. He forgave her.

He stood up coldly and said, "The imperial concubine is not feeling well. You don't need to come and serve her before you arrive in the capital. Just take good care of yourself. Go."

Ruyi looked at Hongli in disbelief: "Your Majesty?!"

She is the imperial concubine!

She came here, but she didn't accompany the empress to meet the ladies and officials. Wouldn't that make everyone in the world think that Hongli didn't like Qingying? !

But Hongli's patience had run out today, and he said to Li Yu, "Go and see Concubine Xian and Suo Xin off."

He specifically mentioned惢心, Li Yu trembled all over and quickly agreed.

Hongli added: "Go find someone to slap you thirty times, and when your face is healed, come back and serve me."

Li Yu trembled again and bowed his body: "Yes! I obey your command!"

He sent Ruyi and惢心 off the boat, and then got back on their boat. Countless emotions were surging in his heart, but in the end he said nothing and hurried back to be beaten.

Ruyi frowned and sighed, "It must be Wei Yanwan's evil words that bewitched the emperor, and it implicated Li Yu. Hey, Suo Xin, when Li Yu's execution is over, you go and give him the medicine. Remember to apply it yourself. After all, he was implicated by you."

Suo Xin: “…”

She said with a wooden face: "The master is smart."

reject?

In front of my master, how can a palace maid or a servant like me be worthy of being rejected?

She used the excuse of getting medicine to appease Li Yu, hurriedly got off the boat, stood on the shore, and could no longer hold back her sobs.

Almost!

Just a little!

She will be locked up in the Forbidden City for the rest of her life, accompanying her master in going crazy during the day, and having to go to bed with Li Yu at night. She will never have the face to see Jiang Yubin again!

High up in the cabin, Yan Wan leaned against the window and looked down. Although she could only vaguely see the outline, she recognized惢心.

She held her chin with her brows agape.

Hongli came over with a steamy look on his face: "What are you looking at?"

Yan Wan leaned closer to his arms, her fair and delicate arms tightly clinging to his neck and shoulders: "I am just glad that I met you in the Imperial Garden that day, and that I can fulfill my long-cherished wish and become the woman of the man I admire."

Hongli followed her gaze and saw惢心 wiping her tears and getting on his boat. His eyes suddenly darkened.

For a woman who has already been engaged to be married, she has to continue to please a eunuch like Li Yu.

Ruyi used to look down on Langya for giving Lianxin to Wang Qin, but what was she doing? She was pure and kind and liked to care for and warm others? Did she always lie to herself like this, so she really believed it?

He reached out to close the window, and put his slender hands into his collar to hold Yanwan's shoulders. Looking at the girl's affectionate eyes, he said softly, "Wanwan, undress me."
