Yan Wan is reborn as a legitimate wife: Curing Ruyi's Douyi syndrome

Yangxindian

Hongli was coughing as he reviewed memorials. Yu Hu, standing nearby grinding ink, said worriedly, "Your Majesty, you've been tired from reviewing memorials lately. Why don't you take a break? Imperial Physician Xia said you can't be tired."

Jingqin sat at the bottom, reviewing the documents while advising: "Yes, Father Huang, you are tired these days. Why don't you take a good rest? I still have your son to take care of these trivial matters."

Hongli held his breath, refusing to rest. He knew that since returning from his southern tour, the ministers had begun searching for the next crown prince. If word got out that he was unable to handle state affairs, the ministers would riot again.

Hongli insisted, "I'm fine."

Jingqin and Yuhu exchanged a glance, and Jingqin said helplessly, "Father Your Majesty, can you please ask Imperial Physician Xia to check your pulse? This will put your son's mind at ease."

Hongli waved his hand and said, "No need, I just coughed twice. Jingqin, you can go back first. I will go to rest after I finish reviewing these memorials. Jinzhong, go and see Jingqin off."

Jinzhong: “Yes.”

Jingqin had no choice but to stand up and bow, saying, "Father Your Majesty, I will take my leave."

long street

Hua Nian stepped forward and wanted to help Jing Qin into the sedan chair, but Jing Qin said, "Huanian, go back to the princess's residence first and tell the prince consort that I will be staying in Changchun Palace today. I am worried about the emperor."

Huanian nodded and said, "Yes."

Jinzhong flattered, "The princess's filial piety is evident to heaven and earth."

Jingqin chuckled.

Changchun Palace

Wei Yanwan took people out to guard, and Jinzhong stepped forward with ease to grind ink for Jingqin.

Jingqin whispered, "If anything happens to the Emperor tonight, I will rush to the Yangxin Palace. You can take advantage of the chaos to go to the Buddhist shrine behind the screen in the Yangxin Palace's bedroom..."

Jinzhong paused while grinding ink and asked in surprise, "Princess, why are you..."

Jingqin: "What? You don't dare to do it?"

Jinzhong quickly expressed his loyalty, saying, "Of course I am willing."

Jingqin nodded and said, "Don't worry, if you can handle the matter well, I will naturally arrange a good place for you."

Jinzhong raised his head sharply and met Jingqin's gaze, unable to conceal his reluctance, and said, "Princess, you know, I just want to be by your side..."

Jingqin laughed and said, "Of course you'll follow me. Do you want to follow the Emperor?"

Jinzhong was overwhelmed with emotion and said excitedly, "Thank you, Princess! I will do my best to get this done even if it means going through fire and water."

Jingqin nodded and threatened with a smile, "This matter must not be made known to anyone else. If it is exposed, don't blame me for being cruel."

Jinzhong: "Don't worry, Princess."

Wei Yanwan shouted at the door, "Princess, Concubine Yan requests an audience."

Jingqin and Jinzhong exchanged a glance and said, "Please ask her to come in. Jinzhong, I have nothing to do here. Please return to the Yangxin Palace and serve the Emperor."

Jinzhong bowed and said, "I will take my leave."

Lin Ruoyao walked in leisurely.

Jingqin: "Sit down."

Lin Ruoyao sat down and told Jingqin about interesting things in the palace.

Lin Ruoyao was already a concubine and had the power to assist in the management of the six palaces. Logically, she shouldn't have been so close to Master Jingqin. But Lin Ruoyao came frequently and didn't care about the gossip in the palace at all.

Jingqin commented on the memorials and echoed a few words.

Lin Ruoyao said nonchalantly, "Things have gotten much better in the palace since that person entered. It's a pity he was only deposed and confined. If the emperor thinks of that person again, he might be reinstated."

Lin Ruoyao was made a concubine as an exception and assisted in the management of the six palaces. Her qualifications were far inferior to those of Concubine Chun and other old servants in the palace, and she completely fell out of favor because of the incident of Ruyi cutting her hair.

The palace maids were far less obedient to Lin Ruoyao than Concubine Chun and the others, so Lin Ruoyao could only come to Jingqin every day to show her presence and intimidate the palace maids.

Lin Ruoyao was also carefully testing Jingqin's attitude. After all, in order to be crowned as a concubine, Lin Ruoyao had offended Ruyi so much that if Ruyi came out, she would definitely not let her go!

Without even looking up, Jingqin casually consoled him, "Don't worry, since you and I are on the same boat, I will naturally not abandon you.

How about this, tomorrow, I will take you and Yongyan to the Yangxin Palace for a visit. Yongyan is the Emperor's youngest son, and the Emperor will always consider his face."

This is to help Lin Ruoyao regain favor.

Lin Ruoyao said in surprise: "Thank you very much, Princess."

Lin Ruoyao quickly recounted several interesting stories from the palace. Jingqin smiled very politely and even invited Lin Ruoyao to have dinner. Lin Ruoyao was overjoyed.

Yangxindian

Hongli still overestimated himself. Halfway through reviewing the memorial, he felt dizzy and fainted before he could call for help.

Yu Hu came in with the soup and saw Hongli lying on the table. He went forward and tried to persuade Hongli to go back and rest. He called softly, "Your Majesty, the ginseng soup is ready. Please take some, Your Majesty."

Seeing that Hongli had no reaction, Yu Hu panicked and stepped forward to push Hongli gently. Seeing that Hongli still had no reaction, Yu Hu panicked, but still forced himself to remain calm and went out to ask for the imperial physician.

The Yangxin Hall is brightly lit.

Jinzhong asked cautiously, "Aunt, do you need me to inform the princess?"

Yu Hu's small brain was racing, and she was completely bewildered. She simply nodded and accepted the situation. Jin Zhong scurried out, not giving Yu Hu time to stop him.

Yu Hu stared blankly at Jinzhong as he walked away.

……

Jingqin hurried over and asked anxiously as soon as she entered the door, "Aunt Yuhu, how is the emperor?"

Yu Hu: "Princess, Doctor Xia is still inside taking the emperor's pulse. The emperor has not woken up yet."

Jingqin, panicked, rushed to Hongli's bedside and asked Xia Zhang, "Doctor Xia, what happened to the emperor?"

Xia Zhang sighed and said, "The emperor's old illness has relapsed, and it's more serious than last time."

Jingqin exclaimed, "Huh?"

After Jingqin calmed down, she asked again, "Aunt Yuhu, the news of the Emperor's fainting hasn't leaked out, right?"

Yu Hu nodded and said, "I only told Doctor Xia and the princess. No one else knows."

Jingqin said seriously, "Aunt Yuhu has done well. Huanian, go and bring in all the people in front of the emperor. Have Jinbao, Wang Qin, and Jinzhong guard the Yangxin Palace."

Huanian: "Yes."

Moore and others entered.

Jingqin ordered: "Master Mur, the emperor has suddenly fainted. You must take the people to guard the imperial court. Don't let the news leak out and cause unrest in the former dynasty..."

Moore said seriously: "Yes."

Jingqin gave her orders one by one, and Yuhu and the others listened attentively. However, Jinzhong, who was guarding the side hall, slipped in quietly.

Hendon

Jinzhong carefully walked around to the back of the screen, and deftly lifted the scroll. Sure enough, he found the secret compartment behind it.

Jinzhong quickly took out the box from the secret compartment, opened the box and took out the secret decree. Jinzhong wrote down the information on the secret decree, looked around, then quickly put the things back to their original place and left secretly.

main hall

Jingqin made arrangements in an orderly manner. Jinzhong knocked on the door and said, "Princess, Concubine Yan requests an audience."

Yu Hu and others panicked and looked up at Jingqin.

Jingqin was a little surprised and asked, "It's so late? Why is Concubine Yan here?"

Jinzhong came in and said, "It is said that someone in Shufangzhai is making a big fuss and keeps trying to get out. Concubine Yan is so frightened that she has asked to see the emperor."

Jingqin rubbed her brows and frowned, "Tell her to go back and tell her that the emperor has gone to bed and to come back tomorrow. She doesn't need to worry about the Shufangzhai anymore."

Jinzhong: “Yeah.”

Jingqin pointed casually and said, "Go to Shufangzhai and tell Ulanara to calm down. She has been confined to her room and cannot leave the palace without the emperor's order."

The young eunuch who was pointed at nodded and said, "Yes."

Shufangzhai

Ruyi was feeling nervous while having dinner tonight. She always felt that something would happen to Hongli tonight, but she held her breath and refused to ask about Hongli's situation.

As Jiang Zhou was taking Ruyi's pulse, Ruyi casually asked, "Doctor Jiang, I've heard Doctor Xia Zhang is an excellent doctor. I'm worried about Concubine Rong's health. I wonder if he'd be able to come to Baoyue Tower to take her pulse tonight?"

Although Jiang Zhou knew that it was a test from Ruyi, he was still shocked by Ruyi's hypocritical words and almost couldn't say what he had prepared.

Rongpin treats Ruyi sincerely, but Ruyi only thinks of her when she is using someone else. If it weren't for the bowl of Nine Cold Soup that Ruyi sent her, Rongpin's health would not have been affected at all.

When Rongpin was in excruciating pain, Ruyi stood by as if nothing had happened. Now she's worried about Rongpin's health? It's obvious to everyone!

Jiang Zhou was stunned for a moment before reacting and saying, "I'm afraid Imperial Physician Xia won't be available tonight. When I arrived, he had been called away by Eunuch Wang."

Ruyi was a little flustered and asked hurriedly, "Why did Wang Qin call Doctor Xia so late at night?"

Jiang Zhou forced himself not to roll his eyes. "You know it's so late, so how dare you ask me to go find Xia Zhang? Do you believe the excuse you made up?"

Jiang Zhou shook his head and said, "I don't know. I was just about to come out to check your pulse when I saw Eunuch Wang hurriedly pulling Doctor Xia away."

Ruyi couldn't help but think wildly. Wang Qin was Hongli's trusted eunuch and was also old. Normally, the imperial physician would not be bothered to go. But tonight he was suddenly sent and hurriedly dragged away... Something must have happened to Hongli!

Ruyi stood up quickly, stepped on the bottom of the flowerpot and hurried to the door, about to rush out.

Seeing Ruyi rushing out like a cannonball, the guards at the door suddenly stopped being sleepy and quickly closed the door that was slightly open.

This door was originally opened for Jiang Zhou to come in and check his pulse, but now Jiang Zhou was also locked in.

Before Jiang Zhou could react, Ruyi had already rushed to the front door and knocked on it with ease, shouting, "Let me out! Open the door! Ling Yunche—"

Xiao Lingzi, who was resting in the veranda, sneezed violently, turned over and continued to sleep.

Rong Pei was also frightened by Ruyi and stopped her, saying, "Master! What are you doing?"

Ruyi acted as if she didn't hear anything and kept shouting and yelling to get out.

The guards also witnessed Ruyi's power for the first time. They were terrified and quickly pushed one of them out and ordered, "Hurry to Yongshou Palace and ask Concubine Yan what to do!"

The Empress Dowager picked a good place for Ruyi. Shufangzhai was close to the West Six Palaces. Almost all the concubines in the West Six Palaces were at odds with Ruyi. Concubine Yan was the concubine closest to Shufangzhai among the concubines in charge, so the guards could only send someone to invite Concubine Yan.

Yongshou Palace

Lin Ruoyao was lying on her bed, happily anticipating her return to favor tomorrow, when Ning Xi rushed in and said, "Your Majesty, something bad has happened! Ulanara is making a fuss and wants to be released! The palace guards are here to ask your opinion."

Lin Ruoyao sat up and said in panic, "What is Ulanara planning to do now? Is she born to be my nemesis? I could be living a good life tomorrow, but she's causing trouble again!"

Ning Xi was also embarrassed and said: "If something really happened to the Ulanara family, wouldn't the emperor take his anger out on me again?"

Lin Ruoyao thought about Hongli's behavior, stood up, and said through gritted teeth: "Ningxi, dress up for me. I will go to the Yangxin Palace to ask!"

It would be better for Hongli to handle the hot potato of the Ulanara family himself! She didn't want to be Hongli's punching bag for no reason!

……

Lin Ruoyao went out in the cold wind and came back in the cold wind, looking puzzled. Fortunately, the hot potato of the Ulanara family had been thrown away, which could be considered a gain.

Shufangzhai

The young eunuch hurried over and explained his purpose to the gatekeeper, who then opened the door and let the young eunuch in.

Ruyi didn't know what happened outside the door, and was still lying on the door and knocking hard. As soon as the palace door opened, Ruyi lost her balance and fell to the ground.

Rong Pei quickly stepped forward to support him and asked, "Master, are you okay?"

Ruyi got up, covered in dust. The eunuch standing beside her said hurriedly, "My Lord, the Emperor has issued an order. Let's go into the palace and discuss it."

Ruyi was a little suspicious and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who are you?"

The young eunuch said, "Master Yi, it's me, your servant. Don't you remember me?"

Ruyi blinked, looking confused.

Rong Pei remembered and shouted, "Master! He is the young eunuch who brought the news from the Southern Tour."

The young eunuch nodded and said, "That's right, my servant. Aunt Rong Pei has a really good memory."

Rong Pei turned around, picked up the broom and was about to rush over. Rong Pei smashed the broom down, and the eunuch quickly dodged and shouted, "Aunt Rong Pei, what are you doing?"

Rong Pei hit nothing, raised the broom and continued to gather strength, saying viciously, "It was you who caused the Empress to be deposed and confined! If you hadn't come to tip her off, how could the Empress have gone to the flower boat and had a big argument with the Emperor!"

The young eunuch fled frantically, explaining, "Lord Yi, this servant was truly concerned for the Emperor's reputation, but I didn't expect to harm you! You were thinking about the Emperor, yet the Emperor deposed you and confined you to his house. I feel sorry for you!"

The eunuch's words touched Ruyi's heart. Ruyi said hoarsely, "Rong Pei! Forget it! He has good intentions."

Rong Pei raised the broom, almost wanting to land on Ruyi. She said viciously, "Good intentions? Bah! I'm the one whose kindness was taken for granted!"

Rong Pei dropped the broom and stormed into the house.

Ruyi looked helpless and said to the eunuch with a faint smile, "Rong Pei is just too straightforward. Don't take it to heart."

The young eunuch spoke up for the injustice and said, "I feel sorry for Master Yi. Rong Pei is just a servant after all. How could she treat her master like this?"

Ruyi's face was kind and gentle, and she smiled, "Rong Pei was thinking of me, but she was too blunt. Rong Pei has endured so much with me, how can I blame her for such a small matter?"

Jiang Zhou twitched the corner of his mouth. Ruyi was pretending. If he didn't know the inside story, he would have thought that Ruyi was very compassionate to her servants based on what she said!

Upon hearing this, the young eunuch was moved and said, "Master Yi is truly a kind-hearted person! He is the most considerate of us servants!"

Ruyi's smile deepened, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Please come into the palace and have a cup of tea before leaving."

The young eunuch was naturally willing, and Ruyi was tricked and flattered by the young eunuch and entered the palace.
