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

Xianfu Palace

Fu Cha Chu Ying was furious when she heard about the farce in Yonghe Palace. The eldest prince had been poisoned and had not woken up yet. She was holding on to protect the eldest prince and had no time to take action against Ruyi.

The eldest prince lay on the bed with a pale face, and Fu Cha Chu Ying wanted to stab Ruyi to death with three knives, but she couldn't. Ruyi was not Jin Yuyan after all. The emperor looked obviously in love with Ruyi, but she couldn't swallow this.

We can only take it step by step...

Cheng Qiangong

Upon hearing that Jin Yuyan was pregnant, Ruyi and Hailan secretly sighed at Jin Yuyan's good luck.

Hailan gritted her teeth and said, "Mrs. Jin is so lucky! She's pregnant at this critical moment."

Ruyi sighed blankly, "When will I be able to conceive the Emperor's child?"

Hai Lan comforted her, "Sister, the Emperor refuses to agree with the Queen Mother's words. He must be sentimental towards you. We must quickly gather evidence to prove your innocence!"

Ruyi was stunned, as if she didn't hear what Hailan said.

When Hai Lan saw Ruyi like this, she thought that she was heartbroken and frightened by Bai Ruiji's actions. She sighed and prepared to leave to find evidence.

But where can Hailan find evidence?

The wet nurse who poisoned Ruyi had died long ago, and A'ruo, who secretly instigated Ruyi to make snacks, was also captured. Ruyi was so smart that she could not imagine that A'ruo was instigating her, and she thought she was just doing it on a whim.

The only people who knew about the eldest prince's affair were A'ruo, the wet nurse, Hua Nian, and Jingqin. Jingqin and Hua Nian hid in the dark, the wet nurse who took the action died without any testimony, and A'ruo, who took some of the gamboge, would not speak out even for the sake of her family. This situation was set up to kill Ruyi from the beginning.

Sure enough, Hongli struggled for three days but still couldn't find any flaws. Even he himself suspected that it was Ruyi who did it.

Ruyi sat there for three days. When she was about to be taken to the cold palace, she suddenly asked to see Hongli. Hongli thought that Ruyi had thought of some key clue and let Ruyi into the palace.

Although Hongli was anxious, he still pretended to be calm when facing Ruyi and said, "The imperial decree has been issued, the matter has been settled, why do you still need to come to see me?"

Ruyi looked up at the emperor and said with a look of grievance, "I am unwilling to accept this and would like to ask Your Majesty a question in person. Your Majesty, do you believe in fairness?"

Hongli was furious when he saw Ruyi's aggrieved look. "I have been looking for evidence for you these days. Not only did you stay in your room and not come out, but now you finally come out to see me and ask me whether I believe in fairness?"

Hongli was furious, suppressing his anger and asking, "What's the point of me believing you? Concubine Zhe doesn't believe you, the Empress Dowager doesn't believe you, and the concubines in the harem won't believe you either. Ruyi, what do you want me to do?"

Ruyi felt very happy when she heard that Hongli believed her. As for whether other people believed her or not, she didn’t care. Ruyi stared at the emperor blankly.

Hongli asked in confusion: "Why are you looking at me?"

Ruyi said bitterly, "I want to see the emperor clearly, but I can't see clearly."

Hongli sighed and changed his tone, saying, "This afternoon, I listened to a piece of music called 'On the Wall on Horseback.'"

Ruyi raised her head, tears in her eyes as she said, "From the wall and on the horse, we looked at each other from afar. The moment I saw you, I knew you were heartbroken."

Hongli continued, "At that time, you and I fell in love with each other after listening to this play. Now, it is I who want you to be sent to the cold palace."

Ruyi asked tearfully, "Is this the emperor's true intention?"

Hongli said with a look of struggle: "Ruyi, even I don't know how much meaning my original intention can have in the current situation. I am not the Son of Heaven, but I might as well be a prince. Ruyi, it is really difficult for me."

Ruyi cried and said, "Because of your Majesty's words, I am willing to live in the cold palace forever."

Hongli sighed and said with emotion, "Okay. You must protect yourself, keep your life, and meet me with a clear conscience."

Ruyi slowly stood up, turned around and left.

Hongli looked at Ruyi's back, still reluctant to leave. He walked to the bookshelf, opened the scroll with the painting of Hongli and Qingying, and ordered, "Li Yu, go see Ruyi off."

Li Yu: “Yes.”

(The author was afraid of being too wordy, so he removed a lot of the plot about Li Yu. I will briefly talk about it to help those who haven't seen it or have forgotten it recall it.

惢心 and Li Yu are good friends. Li Yu often helps Ruyi pass on messages. Whenever Ruyi wants to see the emperor, it is Li Yu who goes forward to inform her. Wang Qin is afraid that Li Yu will replace him, so he punishes Li Yu by making him kneel on tiles. Ruyi happens to come to see the emperor and sees Li Yu kneeling on tiles. She scolds Wang Qin and asks Li Yu to go to Chengqian Palace to help apply medicine.

I didn't change these plot points, I just felt too lazy to talk about them. I have so many complaints that I can't say anything. If I write too much, people will think I'm padding the word count... Just remember that Li Yu is a die-hard Ruyi fan.)

After Li Yu left, Hongli called out again, "Yu Hu."

Yu Hu stepped forward and replied, "Your Majesty, this servant is here."

Hongli: "There is no need to investigate further than what I asked you to investigate. I have two other things I want you to do. Jin Yuyan is under house arrest, and you must personally take care of Concubine Jia until she gives birth and both mother and child are safe."

Yu Hu nodded and said, "I understand."

Hongli: "Secondly, the cold palace is full of abandoned concubines from past dynasties. After all, they are all members of the palace. I don't want anyone to die in there."

Yu Hu nodded again and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I know what to do."

Hongli waved his hand, let Yu Hu go, and looked at the scroll in his hand.

Yu Hu was indeed the king of slacking off. He turned around and went to the cold palace to find Zhao Jiuxiao and Ling Yunche, asking them to take good care of Ruyi. He did not give them any rewards, but only some small change and made some promises.

Because he could not find evidence to prove Ruyi's innocence, Hongli could only start with Arruo and惢心.惢心 was an honest person and insisted that she did not instigate Ruyi. However, Wang Qin and Yu Hu could not hide the resentment in Arruo's eyes towards Ruyi.

After listening to the two people's opinions on A Ruo, Hongli cleverly made A Ruo a concubine and gave her the title "Shen", trying to use the beauty trap to get information from A Ruo.

A Ruo was also a person who climbed up the ladder by following the rules, so she directly asked the emperor for惢心.

Hongli was a little hesitant. He was planning to send惢心 to the cold palace to serve Ruyi, so how could he let A Ruo take her away?

Wang Qin, however, offered a servile suggestion: "Only Ah Ruo and惢心 know about this matter. If the two of them are together and Your Majesty sends someone to keep an eye on them, they will inevitably talk about this matter. Then, won't there be evidence to prove Concubine Xian's innocence?"

After hearing this, Hongli, whose brain had a small capacity, praised Wang Qin for his intelligence and nodded in agreement to A Ruo's request.

惢心 is an honest person. Even though Arruo asked her to go away, she still returned to Chengqian Palace very honestly, wanting to help Ruyi do some things. Although Arruo was disdainful, she followed her anyway because she was afraid that惢心 would be bullied.

Cheng Qiangong

惢心 came back to help Ruyi pack her luggage.

Hai Lan was still thinking about惢心's refusal to help Ruyi take the blame, and she said sarcastically, "惢心, I didn't expect you to be willing to come back."

After hearing this,惢心 paused and continued to clean up.

Ruyi ignored惢心 and stared out the window blankly.

Li Yu happened to arrive and came to convey the emperor's order.

Hai Lan no longer cared about mocking Rong Xin and asked anxiously, "Eunuch Li, is there no room for change in this matter?"

Li Yu said with a bitter face, "The Empress Dowager made the decision, the Emperor issued the decree, and with A Ruo... now that Concubine Shen is here, what can anyone else do with their opinions?"

惢心 was furious at Li Yu's words. What did they mean? What did A Ruo have to do with it? You did something wrong yourself, and you're blaming A Ruo for it? Is it A Ruo's fault that she didn't help you perjure yourself? You can't find evidence to prove your innocence, so you just use your servants to take the blame. I was blind to think you were a good master before!

Then he looked at Li Yu with a complicated expression. They were from the same hometown, and he knew the situation at that time. If it weren't for A Ruo speaking for her, she would have been dead by now. Li Yu now said that Ruyi was not wrong, so was she the one who was wrong?

Ah Ruo: Silly girl, this whole thing was really my fault(^~^)

Hailan and Li Yucai didn't care about Suo Xin's thoughts. Hailan said in disbelief: "The emperor really believed it..."

Li Yu also shook his head and sighed, "The eldest prince hasn't woken up yet, it's really... Master Xian, while I'm the only one here, you have to pack up some gold and silver jewelry. Even in a place like the cold palace, you'll need money!"

Li Yu pondered again, "Even though Master Xian has been demoted to a commoner, she still needs to be taken care of. I can take someone with me."

The three of them looked at惢心, and惢心 quickly lowered her head. The master didn't like her anymore, so he wouldn't let her go, right?

Ruyi nodded and said, "That's fine. No matter how hard it is in the cold palace, it's better for惢心 to be with me."

惢心 suddenly raised her head and said in disbelief, "Master?" Don't you know that I will be married in a few years? Don't you know that I am already with Jiang Yubin... Then 惢心 looked at Li Yu again, her face full of sadness.

Li Yu felt a little sorry for惢心's condition, so he turned around and said, "It would be good for惢心 to go with her."

Just as Suo Xin was about to retort, Hai Lan scolded her, "Suo Xin, I will not pursue the matter of your betrayal. I just asked you to accompany me to the cold palace, but you are unwilling to do so. Since you are unwilling to accompany me, then go back to the Ministry of Punishment."

At the door came Ah Ruo's sneer. Ah Ruo walked in arrogantly and said, "Of course, Suo Xin can't go to the cold palace with Wu Shu Ren. Suo Xin is my personal maid!"

Then he pointed at惢心, angrily saying, "I told you not to go back to Chengqian Palace, don't go back to Chengqian Palace. Look, your kindness has been taken for granted! These ungrateful people really think you can manipulate them!"

Hailan was furious and shouted, "Aruo, you!"

A Ruo slapped him in the face.

Hailan staggered after being hit. Ruyi stopped her and angrily scolded her, "Aruo, you and Hailan are both concubines. How could you hit her?"

Ah Ruo, however, didn't care at all and said, "She is Concubine Hai, and I am Concubine Shen. So what if I hit her? Wu Shuren, don't force me to hit you too!"

After saying that, she raised her hand, and Ruyi quickly closed her eyes. Fortunately, A Ruo just wanted to scare them, and these two cowards were frightened and never dared to say anything about惢心 again.

Li Yu was indignant and said, "Shen Changzai, you..."

Ah Ruo pointed directly at Li Yu and said, "Shut up! How dare a eunuch like you meddle in my affairs? You and惢心 are from the same hometown, right? What's the matter? Are you afraid that惢心 will have a good life?"

Don't worry, from now on, Suo Xin will be with me, which will definitely be much better than being with the common people of Wu! I have never seen such a person, pushing his fellow countrymen into the fire pit.

Li Yu also became obedient.

惢心 knew that A Ruo was venting her anger for her, but she was also afraid that A Ruo would offend the emperor, so she stopped A Ruo and prevented her from continuing.

Ah Ruo misunderstood and said, "Alright, alright, since you care about the relationship between master and servant, then go ahead and deal with her. Just don't be so shameless as to try to follow her into the fire pit again."

惢心 felt a bit complicated. She wasn't so eager to be a slut, was she? But she was afraid that Ah Ruo would get angry again, so she packed up her things honestly. 惢心 packed up some underwear and valuable jewelry together. After thinking for a moment, she hid the money and jewelry in the deepest part of the bag and took out some cakes and put them away.

Seeing惢心's actions, Ruyi couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing with those snacks? If you have them today and tomorrow, you'll be hungry the day after tomorrow too."

Seeing that惢心 paused, Ruyi said calmly: "In a place like the cold palace, it's useless to bring gold and silver jewelry. It's better to put more clothes and food."

惢心 was speechless. It was you who said it was useless, and it was you who said you wanted it. Li Yu just asked you to bring gold and silver jewelry, but you didn’t listen to a word!惢心 looked at Li Yu who was guarding the door, and then looked at Ruyi who was fiddling with the armor.

惢心 pursed her lips, but still advised: "My Lord, when you go to the cold palace, you won't need to wear armor, right?"

Ruyi fiddled with the armor in her hand and said calmly, "Even though I'm in the cold palace, I still have to live a decent life."

After hearing this,惢心's gratitude towards A Ruo reached a new level. A Ruo, I'm so lucky to have you! If I really followed Princess Xian into the cold palace, I'm afraid I would have to do all the dirty and tiring work!

Hai Lan took Ye Xin and Xiang Yun to help pack up. It was obvious that Ye Xin and Xiang Yun were also in a complicated mood after hearing what she said. Only Hai Lan obeyed Ruyi's orders and obediently took out the jewelry that惢心 had packed up.

Seeing this,惢心 didn't want to care about it. She just watched their actions and planned to leave after packing up.

Ruyi sat upright at the dressing table and changed into a simple set of clothes. Hailan had specially brought them for her because she was afraid that Ruyi didn't have the correct clothes. Ye Xin had no choice but to obey Hailan's order and went forward to help Ruyi braid her hair.

After Ye Xin finished weaving, Hai Lan asked, "Sister, how is Ye Xin's craftsmanship?"

Ye Xin thought to himself that this was not good.

Ruyi smiled and said, "It looks very good."

Hai Lan really continued, "Then my sister will let Ye Xin follow you to the cold palace."

Ruyi looked at Hailan with a smile on her face and said gently, "Okay, thank you, Hailan."

Ye Xin is about to collapse, please ask for my opinion!

Obviously, neither Ruyi nor Hailan cares about the opinions of their servants, and Li Yu only listens to Ruyi.

Ye Xin could only look to惢心 for help.惢心 nodded and left Chengqian Palace.

Only Ruyi, Li Yu and Hailan, who were talking and laughing, Ye Xin, who was heartbroken, and Xiangyun, who had escaped the disaster, were left walking towards the cold palace together.

Ruyi kept smiling and agreeing with Hailan's words. It didn't seem like they were going to the cold palace, but rather to ascend the throne. However, they soon stopped laughing.

Because, the reinforcements that惢心 had called for—A Ruo—had arrived.

Ah Ruo: "Stop!"
