Jinwei joins hands in rebirth: villains can also eat at the table
Chapter 68 Falling into the trap
As Yan Wan walked away, she turned back and told Lan Cui, "Lan Cui, go to the kitchen and serve a bowl of lotus seed and lily soup to the Empress. We also have mung bean soup to cool down the heat. Give a bowl to each of the palace maids in Yikun Palace. They're so pitiful, don't get hurt by kneeling, or they'll disturb their service to the Empress."
"Yes, I will do it right away."
Lan Cui got the order and ran away.
Looking at this scene, it must have been prepared early in the morning.
Ruyi's heart sank. She was not a fool and could see that she had been tricked by Concubine Ling.
She made a solemn promise, appeased the emperor, thought of inviting the imperial physician, and showed kindness to the palace maids in Yiku Palace.
Everything is so interconnected and orderly.
No matter how stupid Ruyi was, it was not difficult to see that Yanwan had made full preparations, and she had fallen into the trap she had set.
"Empress Ling, you did a great job today."
Ruyi shook off Yanwan's hand that wanted to support her, walked to the chair in the side hall without looking back and sat down. She looked at Yanwan with such a look that she wished she could cut her into pieces.
What a good plan, it successfully alienated her from the emperor.
After finally finding an outlet to vent her feelings, Ruyi blamed everything that had happened today on Yanwan.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your kind words. I have done this for the Emperor and you, and I dare not take any credit for it. Since you have already arrived at the side hall, I will go back and report to the Emperor. The Emperor is very angry and has a headache. Don't blame me for being nosy. Since your Majesty has come for the Emperor's holy body, why does she have to oppose him at every turn? Now you have made the Emperor very angry. Isn't this a contradiction?"
Yan Wan's face was filled with worry. Seeing Ru Yi's somewhat unpleasant expression, she felt disdainful in her heart. Hearing this, she knew in her heart that Ru Yi was blaming her for everything that happened today.
She was reluctant to blame the emperor at all.
Idiot, you are still protecting this man even after such a quarrel.
I really don’t know what she learned from her aunt since she was a child. She was so obsessed with men. No wonder she ended up dying of depression.
"Empress Ling, be careful with your words. The Empress is only doing what's best for the Emperor. You're slandering her!"
Rong Pei could naturally hear the deeper meaning in her words and quickly warned her.
"I have spoken too much. I will take my leave. The summer heat is very severe. Your Majesty, please don't get yourself sick from anger."
Yanwan smiled and spoke slowly. She knew when to stop, so she bowed slightly and left the side hall.
"Your Majesty, I have persuaded the Empress to rest in the side hall. I have also sent her lotus seed and lily soup and a basin of ice. Please rest assured."
She walked back to the emperor's side, and Jinzhong made way for her with a very considerate look, and brought a small stool for Yanwan to sit on.
"Ling Fei is thoughtful. Thanks to you, otherwise I really don't know how this would end today."
Seeing Ruyi being invited to the side hall, the emperor's heart, which had been on the edge of his seat, relaxed a little. He took Yan Wan's hand, his eyes full of admiration.
Hearing this, Yan Wan's smile widened as she spoke softly, "This is what I should do. Besides, today's incident was caused by me. If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered making medicinal food. I have caused the displeasure of the Emperor and the Empress for no reason. If you two harbor any resentment over this, I will bear the blame even if I die."
"It's not your fault. It's not easy for you to take care of everything. As a concubine, what's wrong with you always thinking about me?" The emperor's anger had already subsided by half, but when he saw her worried, and thought of Ruyi's domineering behavior today, he became furious again.
"I don't care what others think. If the emperor can think of me this way, then everything I have done is worth it. Doctor Jiang, how is the emperor's health?"
Yan Wan first smiled shyly with her head down, then as if she suddenly thought of something, she looked up and asked Doctor Jiang with concern.
After taking the pulse, Jiang Yebi quickly knelt down to face the emperor and Yan Wan.
"Your Majesty, Empress Ling, Your Majesty is in good health. The weakness he suffered some time ago has been cured. The headache is... due to anger and emotional distress, so... You just need to rest and recuperate for a few days, and Your Majesty will be fully recovered."
Cold sweat gradually broke out on Jiang Yebin's head. He felt stiff all over and was very worried about Ruyi's situation.
Upon hearing this, Yan Wan was visibly relieved. She breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Fortunately, the Emperor is in good health, otherwise I would have been a criminal. I will report the news to the Empress immediately. She has always been worried about you, and I'm afraid she must be extremely anxious now."
"Hmph, I'm not sick at all, but I've forced myself to get sick with anger. Go ahead, explain it to her in detail, and let her think carefully about how absurd today's events were!"
Upon hearing Jiang Yebi's diagnosis, the emperor said unhappily that he really couldn't understand when Ruyi became so aggressive. She refused to give in in front of the palace people and didn't give him any face.
"The Empress is worried about the Emperor, so please don't be angry with her. She's been kneeling outside for a long time. Why don't you ask Imperial Physician Jiang to take a look at her? The Emperor said that, but I'm sure he's worried about her too. Besides, I can only feel relieved after hearing that the Empress is fine!"
Yan Wan gently tugged at the emperor's sleeve, shaking it slightly as if making a request.
Seeing her like this, the emperor's heart softened. "You are so kind. It's hard for you. She is so difficult today, and you still plead for her. Go, Doctor Jiang, you should also examine the queen carefully. The queen is very angry today. Give her a prescription to clear away heat and reduce internal heat. I don't want to mention what happened today. After you have examined her, please send the queen back to the palace."
"I thank the Emperor on behalf of the Empress. Your Majesty, please rest here. I will be back soon."
"Go." Although the emperor didn't want to hear any news about the queen for the time being, seeing Yan Wan like this, he waved his hand slightly out of courtesy.
Seeing that the emperor agreed, Yan Wan thanked him happily and led Jiang Yubin to the side hall.
"I pay my respects to the Empress. Empress, Imperial Physician Jiang has examined the Emperor. He is fine, he is just angry. You have been kneeling for a long time today, and I beg the Emperor to let Imperial Physician Jiang come and examine you. What happened today is entirely my fault. Please don't let your precious body be damaged by anger."
Ruyi ignored Yan Wan's words. This person was cunning and would do anything to win the emperor's favor. She didn't trust her.
"Doctor Jiang, is the emperor in good health?" She turned her head and asked Jiang Yubin beside her. She only believed his words.
"In reply to the Empress, as Empress Ling said, the Emperor is in good health."
Jiang Yebi was busy taking Ruyi's pulse. It seemed that he had found something wrong. He frowned and concentrated on taking her pulse.
"Doctor Jiang, is the Empress in good health? Why do you look so serious?" Seeing him frown, Yan Wan asked with concern.
The smile on his face faded and he looked nervous, as if he was just really concerned about Ruyi's health.
