Ruyi's Rebirth: Ruyi's Disease Retreat Retreat

After leaving Changchun Palace, Zhenshu supported Concubine Jia and whispered in her ear, "My dear, why do you have to be so humble to the Empress? We have been blessed with endless favors, and there is no need for this."

"She is the Empress after all. Imperial Concubine Xian is pregnant with the Emperor's first child. If it's a prince, he's a precious child and must be eliminated. This precious child must be born by me."

A few days later, A Ruo and Wang Qin got married. Concubine Xian was pregnant and did not attend. Hai Lan handed A Ruo a pair of jade bracelets given by Ruyi. Although A Ruo was unhappy, she still accepted them.

Hai Lan said calmly with a blank expression, "Noble Concubine Xian said she won't be able to see you off because she's pregnant. After all, now that you're married, you shouldn't be as impetuous as before. Okay, let's go before we miss the auspicious time."

In the end, the emperor took a liking to Wang Qin and rewarded him with a separate room as their bridal chamber.

But that night, screams were heard from the bridal chamber, which was really scary for the palace maids passing by.

The next day, A Ruo didn't even get out of bed. She lay there gasping for breath with disheveled hair and a pale face. The quilt only covered her waist, and her fair back was covered with shocking scars.

The tearing pain in her private parts made her dare not even breathe.

Thinking of Wang Qin’s beastly behavior last night, A Ruo was extremely desperate and hated Ruyi even more!

In Yikun Palace

Ruyi smiled as she listened to Lan Cui's report. A Ruo deserved it.

In this life, she must protect her children and let them grow up healthily, but she colluded with outsiders to harm her unborn child, which she could not tolerate.

Ruyi was pregnant and could not sleep with the emperor. Every time the emperor came to Yikun Palace, he was attracted by Hailan. After a long time, palace servants began to spread rumors that Hailan and Ruyi were not on good terms with each other and that Hailan was stealing Ruyi's favor.

On this day, the concubines paid their respects to the queen as usual.

The queen sat in the main seat. Although her makeup was exquisite, it could not hide the dark circles under her eyes.

"I heard today that Concubine Hai of Yikun Palace is committing treason and is trying to steal Concubine Xian's favor every day."

Hai Lan stood up and knelt down to explain, "Your Majesty, I understand. I didn't do that."

"The Empress must have evidence to say this. If you don't want others to know, then don't do it. Noble Lady Hai, you are on good terms with Noble Lady Xian, so why are you trying to steal her favor now?" Concubine Hui seemed to be making things difficult for Hai Lan, but in fact, she was hinting that the Empress had no evidence and it was just a rumor, so she shouldn't make a big deal out of it.

Ruyi stood up and bowed to the Empress, saying, "Your Majesty, I've misunderstood. It's true that I'm pregnant, but I don't want to disappoint the Emperor. I'm too busy to do it, so I've asked Noble Lady Hai to do it for me."

"Alright, since even Noble Concubine Xian has said so herself, I will not pursue this matter any further. Noble Lady Hai, please get up."

"Thank you, Queen."

"I heard the Emperor appointed a concubine a few days ago. I think she's a pipa prostitute from the Southern Mansion," Noble Lady Jia said slowly. "Hey, why didn't she come to pay her respects to the Empress today?"

"He is a man without rules after all." said Concubine Yi.

Concubine Hui rolled her eyes at her and said, "Noble Lady Yi, be careful with your words. You are usually so cautious, but why did you change your temper today and start scolding people?"

Concubine Yi was still cowardly and timid after all. Concubine Hui's words made her lower her head obediently, not daring to breathe.

Queen: "Well, we are sisters, why are we fighting?"

Concubine Hui raised her eyebrows and thought to herself: You are the only one who can pretend to be virtuous.

As he was speaking, Zhao Yitai came to report that the newly promoted Consort Mei had come to pay her respects to the Empress.

"Please come in."
