Chapter 35: The concubines dare to control the emperor?

The emperor loved trumpet creeper very much.

At this time, Wei Yanwan lowered her head slightly, her eyes like a confused deer, and stood in front of Hongli helplessly and nervously.

Above my head is a large patch of blooming trumpet creepers, which is really eye-catching.

Especially when Wei Yanwan was wearing a light green palace maid's uniform, she looked even more delicate and pitiful, which made people want to protect her.

Girls, it’s better to wear fresh colors, unlike Ruyi, who always likes such old-fashioned clothes. If you don’t know, you would think that the emperor, the supreme ruler, doesn’t even give his concubines decent clothes.

Wei Yanwan made sure that the angle at which she lowered her head would allow her face to be fully visible to Hongli.

As expected, when Hongli saw her face, his eyes were full of amazement, and he even began to miss the appearance of Ruyi when she was young.

"Ruyi, this maid looks a bit like you when you were young."

Jinzhong, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but complain in his heart, "Oh, Ruyi is not even thirty years old now. Even if she were a few years younger, she wouldn't be as beautiful as Ling."

After Hongli finished speaking, Ruyi did not respond. Instead, she looked at Hongli with a smile on her face. Her pair of dry eyes blinked more than ten times in just one short sentence.

Jinzhong almost thought that Concubine Xian had an eye irritation.

It would be better to ask someone to help take a look.

However, Ruyi's silence made her seem like a bystander, as if the person Hongli was talking about had nothing to do with her.

Seeing that she had no response, Hongli did not get annoyed, but instead began to comment on Wei Yanwan with great interest.

Since ancient times, heroes have loved beauties, especially young and beautiful beauties with a look of unwillingness to admit defeat in their eyes, which makes them more desirable to conquer.

At this time, Hongli looked at the person in front of him and felt that he looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Wei Yanwan took the opportunity to expose the bruises on her arm to Hongli's sight.

"That's what I was saying. You dodged the basin of water yesterday, so how could you not dodge a mere basin of water? You've been waiting here all day."

"They haven't beaten me in a few days. If you don't look closely, you can't see the old injuries on my body. I have to prepare well in advance."

[You're quite thoughtful, but you're quite ruthless towards yourself.]

"I deliberately controlled the force at the time. The bruise will go away in a few days. It's better than a burn anyway."

So this is one of the reasons why she felt confident in changing the hot water.

Injuries must be found to prove that people in Qixiang Palace did abuse the palace maids.

To be precise, she was the only one being abused.

Wei Yanwan's little trick was very effective. Hongli actually bent down and looked carefully at her red face and the wounds on her arms that were pinched by Concubine Jia.

Concubine Jia, who was standing by, secretly sighed in her heart, thinking that the emperor must have taken a fancy to Wei Yanwan!

He immediately began to resent Wei Yanwan in his heart.

If I let this slut climb up in the future, who knows how she will take revenge on me.

After all, I have tortured her a lot in the past few years.

It would be easier if the sickly queen was still alive. She could use some tricks to put all the blame on Fu Cha.

But if the queen dies, there is no surprise that I will become the target of her revenge.

In an instant, Concubine Jia had calculated all the pros and cons in her mind.

While the emperor was talking to Wei Yanwan, Concubine Jia rolled her eyes and looked at Ruyi who was standing next to her as steady as an old dog. Then she felt extremely disgusted. She really couldn't expect this cowardly concubine to do anything.

Just when Concubine Jia was thinking about how to make the emperor lose interest in Wei Yanwan, the emperor had already changed his attitude towards her.

"How dare you! You knew that Concubine Xian's maiden name was Qingying, yet you deliberately gave the palace maid such a name!"

"Your Majesty, I—"

"From now on, you can change back to your original name and you don't have to go back to Qixiang Palace."

Wei Yanwan's face lit up with delight, and she immediately responded, "Yes."

Hongli saw that the expression on her face changed very quickly like turning pages of a book, and he couldn't help but feel in a good mood.

In a moment of joy, Hongli talked a few more words with Wei Yanwan, thus directly ignoring the extremely oppressive and complaining look from the side.

"You actually served the eldest prince in Concubine Chun's palace? Then I should have seen you before."

"Your Majesty did meet me, and you even asked me how my eldest prince's studies were going."

Hongli reacted instantly.

No wonder I felt that this woman looked familiar the first time I saw her.

And this soft whisper is so intoxicating.

It turns out I have really seen it.

He remembered it, and later he sent Li Yu to find the palace maid, but he was delayed for other reasons. After a long time, he actually forgot about it.

It’s such a blessing that we can still see each other now!

Hongli was about to ask him to take the person away, but for some reason, perhaps because of the old-fashioned figure, he always felt like an elder was watching him, so he held back what he wanted to say.

Changing the subject, she said, "Since you are clever and smart, you should be a maid in front of the emperor."

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the emperor was trying to marry Wei Yanwan in a roundabout way.

Concubine Jia didn't expect Ruyi, the loser who claimed to be the emperor's childhood sweetheart, to say anything. As long as the emperor was happy, it was fine. After all, Wei Yanwan came from her palace, so she would just find an opportunity to give her a good beating.

Unexpectedly, at the moment when everyone tacitly accepted Wei Yanwan's identity, Ruyi said like a fool, "Your Majesty, you should also ask Yanwan's opinion. What if she just wants to leave the palace or marry a good husband?"

Ruyi's words were full of threats.

After hearing this, Concubine Jia wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

Just now, when the emperor hadn't spoken yet, Ruyi didn't know what to say and just stood aside, acting as if it had nothing to do with her. But now that Wei Yanwan's marriage is a done deal, Ruyi started to make trouble for the emperor.

What a bummer.

The emperor just had a slight smile on his face, but after what Ruyi did, his expression became terribly gloomy.

But someone still doesn't realize it.

Isn't this a rebellion against the Tiangang? Do concubines dare to control the emperor?

Why is the Qing Dynasty different from what she knew since childhood?

She had to write a letter to Prince Yu, telling him everything she had seen and heard here.

"It's okay. You can speak boldly. Do you want the emperor to release you from the palace, or to make a decision for you, such as granting you a guard?"

Ruyi's face was smiling, but her eyes seemed to be saying, "Didn't you want to marry Ling Yunche before? I'm giving you a chance now. Just tell me. If you tell me, I'll tell Ling Yunche and ask him to forgive you for leaving me."

Wei Yanwan resisted the urge to roll her eyes at Ruyi, and then, without any hesitation, as if fearing that something might happen, she immediately kowtowed to Hongli to show her loyalty.

"This servant is willing to serve the emperor!"

"Okay! Jinzhong! Take her to learn some manners!"

"Yes!"

The three of them spoke so quickly that they didn't give Ruyi any chance to interrupt again.

I was afraid that she would say something else weird.
