Ruyi returned to her room angrily, and惢心 followed her closely, constantly comforting Ruyi, "My dear, don't be angry. Sister A Ruo is doing this for your own good. Just teach her a lesson."

Ruyi didn't care about whether to teach A Ruo a lesson or not. She was angry that A Ruo committed the crime herself and pushed it onto her! She didn't ask A Ruo to say those words to Bai Ruiji!

Ruyi tried to regain her composure and continued copying the Buddha Mother Sutra in silence. It was unknown how long it took, so long that惢心 could no longer speak, before Ruyi said calmly, "Alright, enough of this,惢心. The Buddha Mother Sutra is done. Please send it to the Imperial Concubine. After the Imperial Concubine has read it, it will be burned."

惢心 could only respond, "Yes, Master."

Then惢心 hurriedly went to deliver the "Buddha Mother Sutra" with an umbrella, leaving Ruyi in a daze in the room.

Fortunately, Gao Xiyue was too lazy to make things difficult for Ruyi anymore. To be more precise, she felt sorry for惢心. Ruyi obviously didn't care about the life and death of her servants. If she tried to make things difficult for Ruyi, Ruyi probably wouldn't do it. She would only let惢心 run to ask the emperor for help. Anyway, she had punished her, so she didn't care.

惢心 successfully passed the test of the Imperial Concubine and hurried back to Chengqian Palace to serve Ruyi. A Ruo was still recovering from her injuries, so Concubine Xian only had her at her disposal. Wouldn't she be anxious?

Seeing惢心 coming back, Ruyi, who was sitting on the couch, suddenly asked: "惢心, have I spoiled A Ruo over the years?"

惢心 didn't understand what was going on, so she continued honestly, "Sister A'ruo is the young master's dowry, so it's only natural that the young master loves her."

Ruyi suddenly had an idea and said to惢心, "Aruo is now of marriageable age, and I'm thinking..."

惢心 thought Ruyi was thinking about A Ruo's husband's family, so she laughed and teased: "Sister A Ruo is so lucky."

Ruyi sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to keep her, but with A Ruo's personality, she will only harm herself if she stays in the palace. It's better to send her out of the palace while she's still young and marry someone else."

A Ruo has been with me for all these years, so I must pay attention to her marriage. When my mother enters the palace someday, I will ask her to find a good family for A Ruo."

惢心 was a little surprised. After all, Ruyi had said in front of several servants that she wanted to marry A Ruo to the imperial guard. The imperial guard was not a role that ordinary people could have.

But judging from Ruyi's intention, it doesn't seem like she wants A Ruo to be paired with an imperial guard, but rather a servant...

Suo Xin was a little bit incredulous, but still asked, "Didn't the master want to appoint a guard for A Ruo to serve in front of the emperor?"

Ruyi was stunned for a moment after hearing what惢心 asked, but she still forced a smile and explained, "I originally wanted to appoint her as an imperial guard. She will eventually rise to prominence, and I also wanted her to stay by my side for a long time.

But now it seems that it would be better to marry a minor official who is about to be sent out to the countryside. Even if she has to suffer for a few years, she will still be the wife of the emperor, and she will definitely be rich and prosperous."

惢心 did feel a chill in her heart. A Ruo's father's official position was already higher than Ruyi's father's. Now if Ruyi's mother were to find a husband for A Ruo, what kind of good family could she marry into?

There's no way to treat someone like this! If you really made such a big promise and can't change it, then you should just let A Ruo go home and get married. How can you just let the wife of a fourth-rank official find someone to marry? Born a slave in the Ulanara Mansion, A Ruo can forget about finding a good family of equal status.

Ruyi was still feeling proud, thinking that her decision was a good one. Just as she was feeling proud, the door banged open, and Ah Ruo rushed in. She knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Master, please don't let me go. I don't want to marry, and I don't want to leave you!"

Seeing her plan rejected, Ruyi angrily said, "You're becoming even more unruly! You're still sick, why are you running here instead of taking a good rest?"

Ah Ruo shed tears, knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy, saying, "Master, please forgive me. I didn't mean to eavesdrop on you. I just felt better, so I wanted to serve you."

Ruyi was so embarrassed by A Ruo's singing and acting that she couldn't say no. She just consoled him, "You get up first. It was just a joke. Even if I want to send you out, I have to choose the right person."

Ah Ruo was afraid that Ruyi would suddenly have another idea to marry her off to a servant, so she cried, "If you really want to let me go, please keep me for a few more years so that I can serve you well. I promise that I will never cause trouble for you again."

Ruyi thought that it would be bad for her to be without A Ruo.惢心 and Hai Lan were not good at talking and could not make her happy. It would be good for A Ruo to stay for a few more years. So she pretended to feel guilty and said, "The age for a palace maid to leave the palace is 25. If you are willing, you can stay until you are 25."

A glint flashed in Ah Ruo's eyes, and she knelt down with joy and thanked him, "Really? Thank you, Master."

Seeing Ah Ruo finished her greeting, Ruyi offered her a hand to support her and said gently, "Go back and rest first."

Ah Ruo said with gratitude, "Then I will take my leave. I will come back to serve you well after I recover."

A Ruo turned and left. As soon as she walked out the door, the smile on her face disappeared without a trace, and there was only lingering resentment in her eyes.

Ah Ruo: My Lord, you forced me to do this. You clearly promised to marry me to the imperial guards, and now you want to marry me to a servant. I have devoted all my energy to you. How could you treat me like this? You are unkind, so don't blame me for being unjust.

Qixiang Palace

After Yonghuang's family banquet, he found this method very useful. Fucha Chuying was in poor health and would never go out unless there was a large banquet. This led to Yonghuang being far less valued than Jingqin and others despite being the eldest prince.

Ever since the incident at the family banquet, Fucha Langya and Hongli had both sent gifts and scolded the servants, and the Empress Dowager had also sent gifts and scolded the servants again. Fucha Chuying, in order to make up for what happened at the family banquet, had also severely punished the servants.

From then on, Yonghuang could feel that he was valued. In the study, Yonghuang succeeded in making the Taifu no longer care only about Jingqin and others by playing the victim. Other servants also did not dare to only flatter Jingqin and others, for fear that Yonghuang would hold a grudge against them and complain to them.

Yonghuang enjoyed this feeling very much and became more and more adept at playing the victim. This made life difficult for Yonghuang's wet nurse. As the person next to him, the wet nurse would be the first to be punished if Yonghuang showed any sign of being miserable.

The wet nurse couldn't stand it anymore, so she begged for mercy to Yonghuang in the imperial garden, begging him to stop saying that she was not well taken care of. Yonghuang's own mother was lying in bed and couldn't get out of bed. If he did this, she, the wet nurse, would be the only one to suffer!

But Yonghuang didn't think so. Sometimes he even acted too hard. No matter how he looked at the wet nurse, her nose was not a nose and her eyes were not eyes. He always felt that his wet nurse was not as good as the wet nurses of Jingqin and others.

The nanny was heartbroken. Even the most loyal person couldn't stand such torture. How could she not feel resentment towards Yonghuang for being punished for pretending to be pitiful? Yonghuang was also a sensitive person, and the two would only become more and more distant.

Yonghuang was unmoved by the nanny's plea for mercy and ran away in anger. The nanny was so frightened that she started looking for someone else everywhere but dared not make a sound.

Yonghuang was just impatient to listen to the wet nurse, so he ran away on his own, and ended up running into惢心 andARuo who were going to the imperial kitchen to get cakes for Ruyi.

Suo Xin was kindhearted and asked Yong Huang, "How are you, eldest prince? Why are you alone in the imperial garden?"

Yonghuang, however, was addicted to playing the victim, and said aggrievedly: "They don't like to follow me, so they just let me go around."

The wet nurse who is trying hard to find Yonghuang:?

Suo Xin sighed, but her compassionate heart burst forth as she took a few snacks from the box and gave them to Yong Huang. A Ruo watched coldly, but did not stop her.

Yonghuang took it and started to eat it greedily, then stared at the snack box in惢心's hand.

Confused by Yonghuang's actions, Suo Xin advised, "Big Brother, it's easy to feel full if you eat too much. Lunch will be time in half an hour. Please have a snack after lunch."

Yonghuang's eyes reddened, and he said aggrievedly, "They never let me eat enough, saying they're afraid I'll get stuffed, but I'm always hungry."

惢心 was shocked and asked, "Who are they?"

Yonghuang said calmly, "They are the wet nurses who serve me."

惢心 didn't understand. Yonghuang's wet nurses were carefully selected by Zhepin's mother's family. How could they possibly abuse Yonghuang?

The wet nurse who caught up with Yonghuang and heard his words felt disheartened, but she still suppressed her dissatisfaction and went out to call the eldest prince.

Yonghuang then put on a terrified expression and shouted, "It's Nanny Li, hurry up and leave!"

Although惢心 was confused, she still obediently pulled A Ruo away. A Ruo knew Yonghuang's little trick very well, but she said nothing and let惢心 pull her hand and leave.

Cheng Qiangong

惢心 brought the snack box and placed it in front of Ruyi and Hailan. Ruyi saw that a little bit of each item was missing and asked, "What's going on? Why is there a piece missing from each snack?"

惢心 then remembered today's episode and told her about her encounter with the eldest prince.

Ruyi didn't find it strange at all. She just said, "Big brother is really pitiful. Concubine Zhe is seriously ill and can't take care of him all the time. Big brother has to be careful too."

Hai Lan also agreed, "Yes, everyone says the Queen is wise, but I don't think so. The eldest prince is so cautious, who knows what the Queen is planning? I'm afraid she deliberately left the eldest prince alone so that it would be easier for her to take action."

Ruyi thought it made sense, and with a quick glance, she instructed惢心: "惢心, since the eldest prince is so pitiful, you should bring him some snacks from time to time."

Although惢心 felt something was wrong, she still agreed. Ah Ruo, who was tending to Qingmei in front of the window, paused.

Changchun Palace

Jingqin hesitated for a moment while holding the thing in front of her, but she still made up her mind and asked Hua Nian to hand over the package in his hand.

Jingqin: Yonghuang, don't blame me for being cruel. You have been playing the victim again and again to destroy the reputation of the Empress Dowager, and you have been doing weird things in the study room every day to disgust the three of us. If I don't let you be quiet for a while, I am afraid I will vomit to death.

Ruyi just happened to take the bait. Don't you like this Empress Xian very much? I'll help you.

Royal Garden

The eldest prince and Ruyi met

The core idea of ​​what Ruyi said to the eldest prince was to let him continue to play the victim.

惢心 and A Ruo looked at each other, wondering what Ruyi was doing.

But the eldest prince understood it, and looked at Ruyi with admiration, and the "mother and son" smiled at each other.

The eavesdropping nanny felt very disappointed...

The next day in the study, when Huanian came to instigate, Li Ma agreed without hesitation.

Changchun Palace

Routine greetings

Fucha Langya announced the good news that Huang Qiying was three months pregnant with a smile on her face, and also helped Huang Qiying explain: "Before Qiying's pregnancy was not stable, I didn't let her make it public."

Jin Yuyan below was so angry that she almost died. What does it mean? They are all a small group. You are pregnant, but you actually hid it from me?

Jin Yuyan felt that she had Concubine Xian as a scapegoat, so she started to act up again, trying to repeat her old tricks and persuade Huang Qiying to eat fish and shrimp.

Unfortunately, Huang Qiying was shocked by what Gao Xiyue said at the tea party before: "No wonder Yongzhang is so stupid, it turns out he eats too much fish and shrimp." She refused to eat fish and shrimp and just listened to the nanny's words carefully.

Jin Yuyan had to change her method and put cinnabar into Huang Qiying's charcoal fire...
