Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Fawning

Under the guidance of the waiter, Li Yu entered a private room.

The box was very quiet, with only a servant playing the piano. At this moment,惢心 had her back to him. Shuizhi heard footsteps behind her and hurriedly turned around to look at Li Yu. She lowered her head and whispered a few words in惢心's ear before leaving the box with the servant playing the piano.

Li Yu felt a little embarrassed.

He clenched his hands tightly and rubbed them back and forth, looking like a man who was having an affair behind his master's back.

"Suo Xin, why are you calling me out so anxiously? What happened?" Li Yu asked.

惢心's eyes were indifferent and her expression was numb, with pain and sadness surging in her pupils that had lost their light.

She slowly turned her head and asked, "Li Yu, do you still keep your promise to me that day?"

Li Yu nodded and said, "Of course it counts."

Shuizhi was guarding the door, and no one knew what Li Yu and惢心 were talking about inside.

After a long time, when Li Yu went out, his eyes were wet and his eyes were as sharp as a knife, as if he would chop someone in the next second.

He told Shuizhi to take good care of惢心, and turned to look at惢心 and said, "惢心, wait for my news."

After saying that, Li Yu left and returned to the palace.

Ling Yunche is not here again.

Li Yu had murderous intentions. He thought that惢心 could not marry her beloved Jiang Yebin, so he simply let Ling Yunche take her out of the palace. At least she would not have to stay in the palace and live in fear all day long, and could live a free and easy life.

But he never expected that Ling Yunche actually defiled惢心. Not only that, he also abandoned her and secretly met with another woman in the palace openly.

How could he not hate this?

Li Yu followed Ling Yunche for a few days and was sure that he would go to guard Yiku Palace as long as he was not on duty.

That day, the young eunuch Li Yu sent to follow Ling Yunche came to report that he had seen Ling Yunche enter the Yiku Palace with his own eyes. Li Yu knew that the opportunity had come.

He immediately sent someone to invite惢心.

He found another reason to transfer Jinzhong and Jinbao from the Yangxin Palace. Jinzhong was quick-witted and soon noticed Li Yu's abnormality. He agreed openly, but when he was halfway there, he pretended to have a stomachache and asked Jinbao to go first and he would follow.

After sending Jinbao away, Jinzhong returned to the Yangxin Palace.

He tiptoed to the temple door and eavesdropped.

Hongli didn't know what was waiting for him next. Seeing Li Yu standing below with an uneasy look, he raised the tea, put it to his lips and took a sip.

"Li Yu."

Hearing Hongli calling him, Li Yu shuddered all over and knelt down, begging for mercy: "This slave deserves death, this slave... shouldn't have been distracted."

Li Yu had never been so rude before, and Hongli did not blame him. He just thought that something happened in Li Yu's family.

He leaned against the table, frowned slightly, and smiled, "What's going on?"

Li Yu hesitated for a while, but still took out a letter from his arms.

It was written by惢心 herself.

Hongli's brows, which had never relaxed, now furrowed even more. "What is this?"

Li Yu replied, "Your Majesty, this is Madam Ling's blood letter. She asked me to give it to you personally, saying that you will understand after reading it."

"A letter written in blood?" Hongli asked curiously.

Why did she write him a letter in blood for no reason?

Hongli stood up and walked to Li Yu, took the blood letter and started to read it. There were several pages. The more Hongli read, the greener his face became, and his hands gradually began to tremble.

"How dare you! You all are so daredevil." Hongli suddenly roared.

His eyes were filled with disappointment and anger.

Li Yu was afraid that Hongli would faint, so he reached out to help him. Hongli kicked him away, cursing, "How dare you slander the Queen? Believe it or not, I will kill all nine generations of your clan..."

Hongli continued kicking, his voice rising as he shouted, "Don't think I don't know what you're plotting against me. Ruyi just became the Queen and you're already eager to pull her down. Who is it? Is it the Queen Mother? How much good has she done for you? Tell me—"

Li Yu was kicked so hard that he saw stars and blood came out of the corners of his mouth, but his hands were still tightly protecting his head.

Until Hongli got tired of kicking.

He slumped in his chair, hands on his hips, breathing heavily.

Li Yu propped himself up and crawled to Hongli's feet, crying, "Your Majesty, I am wronged. My loyalty to you over the years is evident to all. I just don't want you to be kept in the dark by the Empress."

"This blood letter was given to me by Shuizhi when Miss惢心 entered the palace last time. I didn't believe it at first, but I couldn't let Your Majesty be cuckolded for no reason. For several days, I had people follow Ling Yunche until tonight when someone I sent came to inform me that Ling Yunche had gone to Yikun Palace again. Only then did I dare to tell you the truth. If I have wronged the Empress, I am willing to go to the Ministry of Punishment and endure the torture."

Li Yu was sincere in what he said. Even if Hongli didn't believe it, Ruyi's image in Hongli's heart would plummet in the future.

Since he was going to die anyway, Li Yu decided to give up. He propped himself up and knelt before Hongli, shouting, "I want to report the Empress for having an affair with a guard and defiling the harem. This crime is unforgivable."

"You..." Hongli was so angry that he couldn't speak.

But on second thought, no matter whether what Li Yu said was true or not, as long as Hongli went to Yiku Palace now, wouldn't it be clear? If Ruyi really betrayed him, he would depose the queen. If Li Yu was talking nonsense, he would beat her to death immediately.

Jinzhong hid outside the door and listened carefully.

I really didn't expect that Ling Yunche, who looked honest, would dare to seduce the queen. Lust is a double-edged sword. He actually dared to cuckold the emperor. He really wants to kill himself.

Jinzhong didn't know that Yanwan had completely cut off her feelings for Ling Yunche. He was afraid that after she knew it, she would rush to Yikun Palace to plead for Ling Yunche at all costs, thus ending her wealth and glory.

No, he couldn't just watch this happen.

While Hongli and Li Yu were still there, Jinzhong hurried to Guanju Palace.

The lights in Yiku Palace were bright.

Ruyi and Ling Yunche had not yet realized the disaster that was about to happen.

In fact, Ruyi had long known that Ling Yunche had been hanging around outside the Yiku Palace recently.

I just don't know what he was worried about, so he asked Sanbao to invite Ling Yunche into the house to sit down today.

"Ling Yunche, since you married惢心, you should treat惢心 well and not let her stay alone in the empty room."

Ling Yunche lowered his head and said nothing. He didn't love惢心. If he hadn't drunk too much on the wedding night, he would never have had sex with惢心.

"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about leaving the palace?" Ling Yunche asked.

The smile on Ruyi's face froze, and the curve of her mouth gradually flattened.

Her mind was blank, her brain was empty, and only her heart was beating lonely and strongly.

Ling Yunche looked at Ruyi with anticipation.

He wanted to get the answer he wanted from her, even if it was a lie, he still wanted to hear it.
