Why do you always rush to join me after awakening?

The first thing Ruyi did when she entered the palace was to go back to Yiku Palace to wash up.

When she had washed and dressed and was ready to meet the emperor, she was ordered to stay in Yiku Palace temporarily and not to go out without the emperor's order.

"What do you mean? I'm the Empress appointed by the Emperor himself! Why won't you let me go out? I want to see the Emperor!"

Fu Heng said in a businesslike manner with a cold expression, "Empress? You and the Emperor haven't completed the ceremony yet, so it doesn't count."

Hearing Fu Heng's words, Ruyi's smile disappeared completely. She spoke in a condescending tone, "Fucha Fu Heng, Empress Xiaoxian is no longer with us, and the position of Empress has been vacant. Although I have never wanted that position, the Emperor has begged me to be his Empress. How can I let him down?"

"Aren't you curious about Ling Yunche? You never asked him how he was doing in the past few days since you came back."

Ruyi blinked and followed up his words with a casual question, "How is Ling Yunche? Indeed, I haven't seen him in the past few days since I came back."

"He's not a man anymore."

"What do you mean?"

"What the eunuch meant."

After saying this, Fu Heng turned and left, without giving Ruyi the chance to ask any questions.

"Lock it. The emperor has ordered that this door cannot be opened without his order."

"Yes! Commander!"

Ruyi stood there in a daze. Ling Yunche's news took her a long time to recover.

He is disabled, could it be that his offspring roots are damaged?

Do not!

How can you do this!

She would never allow such a thing to happen!

Before she knew it, tears were streaming down her face, and soon, Ruyi was wailing in grief, her features shaking.

The guard at the door heard the crying inside and quietly looked inside through the crack in the door. He found that the imperial concubine was squatting on the ground, holding her face and crying bitterly.

Ruyi now wants to see Ling Yunche very much, but Ling Yunche has already been sent to the Khorchin tribe by Hongli at full speed.

Wei Yanwan also heard about Ling Yunche's affairs.

I didn’t expect that the trajectory of my life changed but the final outcome remained the same.

But in Jinzhong's eyes, the look on her face as if she was thinking about something made him feel sorry for Ling Yunche.

"What's wrong? Master Ling is distressed?"

How could I forget that this petty person is still here?

"Look at what you're saying. The friendship between us was in our previous life."

Jinzhong reached out and touched Wei Yanwan's earrings, his eyes full of aggression and possessiveness.

"Master Ling knows that I have always been very petty and cannot bear to see you feel sorry for him."

Wei Yanwan slapped Jinzhong's hand away, turned around and sat down, speechless, "I don't feel sorry for him, I'm just wondering what the emperor means. I can't figure it out."

Jinzhong moved closer to Wei Yanwan, massaging her shoulders and speaking softly, "In my opinion, the succession issue may be the last honor the Emperor has given her."

"What do you mean?"

"The queen is pregnant."

"..."

"!!!"

Explode!

Then this child is Ling Yunche's?

Yes, the two of them had been outside the palace for half a year, alone as a man and a woman, so it was easy for them to get angry.

But would Hongli be willing to wear this green hat?

"Your Majesty, castrate him. His thing is useless anyway."

Wow, this is really a good thing.

Upon learning that Ruyi had returned to the palace, Jingse also entered the palace.

Since getting married, Jingse seldom entered the palace. She spent most of her time traveling outside with her husband, and lived a very comfortable life.

"My son, I would like to send my regards to Emperor Ama."

Hongli looked at his daughter distressedly and said, "Hurry up, get up, let the emperor take a good look at you. You've become thinner and darker. How has your husband taken care of you?"

Jingse smiled and explained, "Father Your Majesty, I just often go out with my husband, so it's normal for me to be a little darker. Father Your Majesty, you want to enthrone the new queen and ask me to come back to watch the ceremony, so I rushed back from the border."

Hongli sighed, "If it weren't for the enthronement of the new empress, would you have planned to never come back and forget the Emperor? You haven't returned to the Princess's Mansion in the capital to live. I thought I would leave my daughter in the capital, but I didn't expect that in the end it would be so difficult to even see her."

Jingse took out a gift from her arms and gave it to Hongli like a treasure.

"Father, this was carved by my daughter when she was at the frontier. I'm giving it to you."

Hongli looked at the hand-carved jade statue that Jingse gave him, and finally a smile appeared on his face for a moment.

"Okay, okay, I'll take it, Your Majesty. Please sit down and enjoy your meal. I've specially asked someone to prepare your favorite food."

"Uh-huh."

Although Jingse did not often return to the palace, she exchanged letters with Wei Yanwan.

So she was a little confused about the successor, but still respected the emperor's decision.

"Who does the Emperor intend to appoint as the envoy for the conferment of the title upon the Empress?"

Hongli drank his wine and said perfunctorily, "No."

"what?"

"There's no ceremony. She's just a successor. Just a decree to show your respect."

This time Jingse was completely confused and didn't know what to say.

Hongli seemed to have opened up a chatterbox in front of his daughter, and he spoke to himself, "She is not worthy of being my empress. The title of empress is just a title, but whether she is there or not is not important at all."

Jingse fell completely silent.

It seems that the woman did something that made the emperor very disgusted, and he had to punish her in this way.

But Jingse couldn't be happy at all.

"Never mind. I don't have much of an appetite. Jingse, the Emperor will go back first. You can eat slowly."

"Farewell, Emperor Father."

After Hongli left, Jingse looked at the portrait of the Empress Dowager hanging on the wall and felt a little depressed.

At that time, Empress Wei and others had kept the fact that the Empress Dowager had faked her death a secret and had not revealed any information to her.

If she had not seen the Empress Dowager standing in the crowd when she got married, she would have doubted her eyes, or she would have gone to the imperial mausoleum with her own eyes to open the Empress Dowager's coffin to see who was inside.

It was because of this that she had the opportunity to play with her mother outside the palace.

Seeing her brother jumping around, Jingse didn't feel so sad anymore.

"Mother, things have changed drastically in the palace in the past two years. It seems you were right to leave the palace."

Looking at the sumptuous food on the table, Jingse had no appetite at all.

Just when she was feeling bored, she heard some chattering outside the house.

"Hello, you two, just go in first."

"Good sister, you go first. I don't dare to mess with her now. A pregnant woman is the scariest."

Yihuan wordlessly grabbed Wei Yanwan's arm and dragged her inside.

Wei Yanwan really wanted to shout for help.

I didn’t realize Yihuan’s strength was so great, so unexpected!

After they entered the house, they didn't see anyone.

Wei Yanwan looked left and right, but couldn't find Jingse. She murmured, "Huh? Where's she? The emperor just went out, and I didn't see Jingse go out with him."

At this moment, a cold voice sounded in the shadows behind the two of them.

"Empress Wei, you are looking for your son~"
