Why do you always rush to join me after awakening?

"My dear, Concubine Jia was in great pain yesterday and gave birth to a stillborn baby in the evening."

Wei Yanwan didn't show any surprise after hearing this. She rubbed her aching shoulders, glanced at Chunchan, and reminded her, "After all, this isn't something to be happy about. Remember not to mention it again."

"Yes."

The prince that Jin Yuyan had been waiting for for so long was finally born, but it turned out to be a stillbirth.

This is something that no mother can accept.

At this time, Ruyi and the other two had already arrived at Ganlu Temple.

After getting off the car, Ruyi looked at the temple in front of her with disdain, still holding her head high, "Why is no one coming to greet me?"

An old woman was sweeping the ground and saw two women and one man standing in front of the temple but didn't pay any attention.

Yes, when she took off her gorgeous palace dress and put on the gray-black dress again, who could associate her with the graceful and elegant imperial concubine?

Rong Pei stepped forward, pinching her waist and scolding, "How dare you! The Imperial Concubine herself is here, and you still don't come over to kneel and pay your respects!"

The old nun didn't even raise her head, muttering, "What Imperial Concubine? Would an Imperial Concubine dress like this old nanny? I've seen concubines from the palace before, but I've never seen anyone dressed like this."

The other person's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for the three of them to hear clearly.

Ruyi looked a little embarrassed, but Li Yu still limped forward to talk to the nun.

"The Imperial Concubine is a frugal person. She left the palace this time because of an imperial decree. Didn't you receive the imperial decree?"

The old lady rolled her eyes and said in a cold tone, "What decree? I haven't heard of it."

"Hey! You! How can you be so stubborn! Who would lie to you about something like this?"

"What does that have to do with me?"

Li Yu was so angry that his wound hurt. He never thought that this girl would be so difficult to deal with!

"If you're here to burn incense, please come back in a few days. Ganlu Temple is not open to the public right now."

It is not open to the public, which means that the three of them will have to find their own accommodation tonight.

How could someone like Ruyi, who has never suffered, agree to this?

"Master, I am indeed the Imperial Consort. Perhaps you haven't received the Emperor's order yet, so you don't know."

After sweeping the dust in front of the door, the old woman tossed the broom aside, stood up straight, and looked down at the three people on the stone steps. Her eyes were immediately drawn to someone's armor gleaming in the sun. After looking them up and down for a long time, she said, "In that case, come in."

From beginning to end, this nun looked aloof and unapproachable.

Ruyi looked at the other person's nimble legs and feet, curled her lips, and did not hide her disdain at all.

However, the old woman walking in front seemed to have eyes on the back of her head and asked, "How is the Queen Mother now?"

Ruyi blinked and asked casually, "The Queen Mother is fine, why are you asking about her?"

"After we parted at the palace that year, I, a poor nun, and the Empress Dowager, who was then Imperial Consort Xi, never met again."

"you are?"

"Master! The vegetarian meal is ready!"

"Yuan Yi, arrange accommodation for the three of them."

"Master, who are these three?"

"From the palace."

"Know it!"

Li Yu had heard something about what happened to the Empress Dowager at Ganlu Temple.

If we were to talk about the nun who helped the empress dowager the most, it would be a woman named Mo Yan.

Especially when the old nun just asked how the empress dowager was doing recently, Li Yu became more and more certain that this was the nun Mo Yan who had helped the empress dowager!

But Ruyi hasn't thought of this yet.

Li Yu walked beside Yuan Yi and asked quietly, "Young Master, is that nun just now Mo Yan?"

Yuan Yi stared with his big round eyes, somewhat unhappy, "You don't even know that that is our Master Mo Yan!?"

Li Yu was a little embarrassed by her sudden questioning and had to cover it up with a smile.

This sister-in-law named Yuanyi is not very old and was adopted by Master Jingbai. Although she is a nun, her mentality is still somewhat like that of a child.

"By the way, Ganlu Temple is not open to the public recently. You have to do whatever you want on your own."

Li Yu's voice unconsciously rose a little, "Don't you care?!"

Yuan Yi looked at Li Yu as if he were mentally retarded and said unhappily, "Why should we care? Everyone who comes here is like this. Are you special? Even the nobles in the palace have to do things for themselves. When the Empress Dowager lived here, she fetched water, washed clothes, chopped wood, and cooked for herself."

Li Yu wanted to say something, but Ruyi snorted coldly, thinking that she was too proud to give in, and walked forward with her head held high.

"Li Yu, from now on, you will do everything yourself and don't bother them!"

"Yes."

Yuan Yi left after arranging the room.

After all, there are many things to do every day.

When they were the only three left in the room, Ruyi looked at everything around her with her hands covering her nose, feeling extremely disgusted.

"This place is even more shabby than the cold palace. How can I live here?"

"Even the table is broken. You simply don't take me seriously!"

"Rong Pei, go find that Master Mo and ask her to get someone to bring a better table over!"

Regarding Ruyi's domineering attitude, Li Yu really wanted to say, Imperial Concubine, you'd better face the reality.

But he still held back the words and didn't say them out loud.

Normally, men are not allowed to enter such places.

But Li Yu is not a man, so Mo Yan didn't drive him away at all.

After receiving the order, Rong Pei put down the bag in her hand and went out to find Master Mo Yan.

But after searching for a long time, I still couldn't find Master Mo Yan.

Even Yuan Yi, who arranged their accommodation, was nowhere to be found.

The others all chose to remain silent in response to Rong Pei's questions and refused to talk to her.

When Rong Pei walked back with her head down and a lost look on her face, Ruyi was already sitting on the edge of the bed enjoying Li Yu's massage.

"I'm a little tired. Bring me some hot water later."

Hearing Rong Pei's footsteps, Ruyi opened her eyes and looked at her.

"Where's the table?"

"Master, no one pays any attention to me."

"What use is there for me if you can't even do this? Okay, seeing your expression makes me annoyed. Go get some hot water, maybe that will work."

"Okay, slave, let's go now."

Rong Pei groped her way to the next room, which was a small kitchen with a large water tank in the corner. Rong Pei showed a happy expression and walked towards the water tank with her sore legs.

However, before she could be happy for too long, she felt like crying the moment she opened the lid.

This is an empty cylinder.

There is no water in it at all!

The queen is still waiting for hot water. What should I do?

"Rong Pei, Rong Pei, are you in there?"

When Rong Pei heard Li Yu's voice, she seemed to have found hope. She didn't care about anything else and pulled the person in.

"Li Yu, I have something to tell you. How about we elope?"
