Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Fawning

Ruyi suddenly let go, and惢心 lost her support and fell to the ground like a limp insect. Ruyi finally lost her temper. She raised her hand and slapped惢心 in the face. The blow was so powerful that her cheek almost numbed with pain. A trace of blood slowly seeped from the corner of her mouth, and her ears were ringing. Everyone in the room turned their gazes to her, but due to her status as the Imperial Concubine, they held their breath and dared not speak.

This was also the first time Ling Yunche saw Ruyi in such a different way, and he couldn't help but look up to her a little more.

Jiang Yebi subconsciously protected惢心 behind him, and looked at Ruyi with eagle-like eyes, fearing that she would attack again.

"Miss."

Ruyi stood up, brushed off the dust on her body, picked up the scissors on the ground and threw them in front of Jiang Yebin, saying sternly, "惢心, are you going to commit suicide after suffering such a small injury? The people who hurt you are still living well in Qixiang Palace. Don't you want to see them get the retribution they deserve? It is true that your body is disabled, but it does not mean that I will let them go. If you trust me, stay alive and watch."

With tears streaming down her face,惢心 used the hand that could still move to stroke her cheek that had just been hit. She looked at Ruyi's familiar face. It was obviously very familiar, but for some reason, she felt that Ruyi was so unfamiliar. If she said that Concubine Jia was the one who harmed her, then wasn't惢心's suffering all caused by Ruyi?

If Ruyi had not been falsely accused of having an affair with Master Anji, she would never have been thrown into the Ministry of Punishment by the Emperor.

Jin Yuyan, Ruyi, Hongli, these were the ones who caused her to become disabled. 惢心 was numb. She was very tired and knew that she, a palace maid like an ant, was not worthy of fighting against the imperial power. At this moment, she just wanted to leave the palace and spend the rest of her life with her beloved. She shook her head, her voice filled with endless grievances, and every word was full of accusations: "I don't want to do that. I just want to leave the palace now and spend my life with my beloved. I beg Your Majesty to grant my wish."

Jiang Yebi also knelt down and said that he wanted to resign and asked Ruyi to agree.

Ruyi glared at the two of them with her eyes wide open. How could they be so ungrateful? She had said all the nice things she could, but why were they so stubborn? She suppressed her anger and said with a smile, "I know that the friendship between you two is unbreakable. When惢心 gets better, I will personally hand her over to you and let her marry you in style."

Jiang Yebin believed that Ruyi was sincere about their situation, so he didn't insist. He thought that when惢心 got better, he would take her out of the palace. At that time, he would resign from his job at the Imperial Hospital and return to the countryside with惢心 to open a small clinic.

At night, Jiang Yubin returned to the Imperial Hospital. Ruyi was worried that leaving惢心 alone in the room might make her commit suicide again, so she sent Shuizhi and Lingzhi to take turns to look after her, and asked Sanbao to lead others to guard outside.惢心 felt like a prisoner.

That night, Hongli turned over Ruyi's green card, and she happily dressed herself up and went to sleep with him.

The news of Ruo Xin's suicide attempt spread quickly throughout the harem. Li Yu was so anxious that he didn't even bother to accompany the emperor. He left Hongli behind and rushed to the Yikun Palace. Jin Zhong, who happened to be watching Ruo Xin, came in and saw him. Jin Zhong pulled Li Yu aside and asked, "Master, where are you going in such a hurry?"

Li Yu broke free from Jinzhong's hand and said hurriedly, "Go see Suo Xin. I have to persuade her not to be depressed."

"Master, you are risking your life. Is it worth it for a woman who doesn't love you?" Jinzhong roared in a low voice.

He soon realized that he had said the wrong thing. He knew that Li Yu loved惢心, but惢心 loved someone else. But the same was true for Jinzhong. He loved Yanwan. He knew that Yanwan didn't love him, but he just wanted to help her. As long as she was happy, he would be happy. Even if Yanwan stabbed him with a knife one day, he would only hold Yanwan's hand and ask her if it hurt with the hand that stabbed him.

Maybe this is preference.

This was also the first time that Li Yu thought about this problem. He had long known that惢心 and Jiang Yubi were truly in love, and he also knew that he could not give惢心 the life she wanted. In this case, why not let herself go? Who says that people in love must be together? Sometimes letting go is also a way of love.

Li Yu's eyes curved, sparkling with light, and he said firmly, "Jinzhong, have you ever loved someone who made you want to hold all the good things in the world in your hands? That feeling is truly wonderful."

Jinzhong was speechless. He knew he couldn't stop Li Yu, and he had never thought of stopping him. But since the plan had begun, he would do something that would only benefit himself. As long as Li Yu was brought down, he would be the next chief eunuch.

Jinzhong pretended to be serious and said, "Then you go, Master. If the emperor asks about it, I will help cover for you."

Li Yu shook Jin Zhong's hand gratefully, "Thank you."

Where Li Yu couldn't see, Jinzhong lowered his head with a sinister smile on his lips.

After a night of tenderness, Ruyi leaned on Hongli's chest, quietly listening to his heartbeat. Hongli stared at the bed curtains, his thoughts drifting away.

Ruyi noticed that Hongli was worried and asked, "What is the emperor thinking about?"

Hongli closed his eyes and said, "It's okay, go to sleep."

Ruyi didn't believe it, so she lay on Hongli, looking at his sleeping face, and stretched out her fingers to touch from Hongli's eyebrows to the corner of his warm lips.

This is her husband, a man, but there are too many women in the harem, and the love the emperor can give her is so meager. Ruyi always relies on the childhood sweetheart relationship between herself and Hongli, thinking that she is a special existence in the harem.

At this moment, she became fearless again and said, "Your Majesty, do you know that惢心 attempted suicide today?"

Hongli was a little impatient. He suddenly regretted having invited Ruyi to his bed tonight, but he didn't want to offend her, so he replied softly, "I heard. Ask Jiang Yubin to treat惢心 well. If there are any precious herbs needed, ask Li Yu to go to the Imperial Hospital to get them."

Ruyi raised her eyes and said, "Your Majesty,惢心 is suffering from a heart disease. Treatment can only heal her external injuries, but what about her heart?"

Hongli opened his eyes and looked at Ruyi, "So what do you mean?"

Ruyi said, "I just can't accept it. Concubine Jia is so careless about human life. Why don't you punish her severely?"

Hongli let go of Ruyi and turned over. "Noble Lady Jia hasn't admitted that she was the one who instigated the Seven Treasures Bracelet incident. Zhenshu has also admitted that she orchestrated all of this to avenge Empress Xiaoxian. Besides, Noble Lady Jia is backed by the Yu clan. Punishing her would be like slapping the entire Yu clan in the face."

"But Ruoxin's legs..."

Ruyi wanted to continue, but was interrupted by Hongli, "惢心 is just a palace maid. It is her duty to be loyal to her master. Doesn't the Imperial Noble Concubine think it is a good deal to use her hands and feet to exchange for the Imperial Noble Concubine's innocence? Now that the matter is over and Master Anji has left the palace, why does the Imperial Noble Concubine always bring up the past? Besides, now that Concubine Jia has given birth to the Ninth Prince, she is not only a noble lady of the Yu family, but also a meritorious official of the Qing Dynasty. You should stop staring at her."
