flower room

After being sent to the greenhouse, Wei Yanwan was kept busy. Therefore, since entering the greenhouse, Yanwan and Ling Yunche rarely met.

Mammy: "Wei Yanwan, where have you been? I asked you to clean up the greenhouse, didn't you hear me?"

Wei Yanwan sighed and could only accept her fate and continue doing odd jobs. She was glad that she was busy at the time and did not say those words to Ling Yunche.

Lan Cui told her that Zhao Jiuxiao once told her that Ling Yunche had a good relationship with a deposed concubine in the cold palace, and now that the deposed concubine has left the cold palace, she will definitely support Ling Yunche.

Wei Yanwan worked efficiently and planned to find Ling Yunche after finishing her work to ask him if he could ask the nobleman to rescue her from the greenhouse.

Kunning Palace

Ling Yunche had been worried since he was summoned by the Emperor, fearing that he would be punished. However, the Emperor not only did not blame him, but also transferred him and Zhao Jiuxiao to Kunning Palace.

Zhao Jiuxiao: "Ling Yunche, Ling Yunche!"

When he heard Zhao Jiuxiao calling him, he put his thoughts aside and came out to ask, "What's going on?"

Zhao Jiuxiao teased, "Your sister Yanwan is here to see you."

Ling Yunche smiled and ran to the long street outside the palace gate, where he saw Wei Yanwan, who was trembling with fear while waiting.

Ling Yunche: "Yan Wan, why are you here? The flower room is busy, it must be difficult for you to come out."

Wei Yanwan smiled and said, "Brother Yunche, Madam is in a good mood today, so she didn't give me so much work."

Ling Yunche said distressedly, "It's not going to work if we keep going like this. How about I ask Concubine Xian to give you some easier tasks?"

Wei Yanwan was pleasantly surprised and said, "Really? Brother Yun Che treats me the best."

Ling Yunche regretted what he said as soon as he said it. He wanted to act like a hero in front of his sweetheart, but seeing Yan Wan's smiling face, Ling Yunche couldn't bear it and nodded.

(Maybe Baozi thinks Ling Yunche is not so kind. In fact, Ling Yunche was sincere to Wei Yanwan in the early stage, and he is a confident person. It is normal for him to like to brag after being admired...)

Ling Yunche also wanted to go to Ruyi, fearing that Ruyi had forgotten her promise and would not support him.

Royal Garden

Ling Yunche inquired for a long time and found out that Concubine Xian loved to visit the Imperial Garden, so he waited in the Imperial Garden early.

Ruyi saw Ling Yunche sitting motionless at the outer gate of the Imperial Garden, holding a few picked plum blossoms.

Ruyi smiled in surprise, "Ling Yunche? Aren't you being sent by the Emperor to guard Kunning Palace? Why are you here?"

Ling Yunche bowed and replied, "Greetings, Concubine Xian. Every day, I come to the Plum Garden to pick pine, bamboo, and plum blossoms for the annual offerings in Kunning Palace to place in a vase.

That's why I picked some red plum blossoms to put in the vase. I just heard the voice of Concubine Xian, so I wanted to wait for you here and pay my respects to Concubine Xian."

Ruyi stared at Ling Yunche, curled her lips and smiled sweetly, "You're waiting here specially, it's not as simple as paying respects."

Ling Yunche was embarrassed and said shyly: "Her Majesty Xian saw through me."

Ruyi smiled and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Ling Yunche: "There is a maid in the flower room named Wei Yanwan. She came to see me..."

Ruyi frowned, but still smiled and said, "I've just started to get better, and someone has come to you?"

Ling Yunche's face flushed red as he stammered, "Yes. But she's different, she's..."

Ruyi suddenly understood and forced a smile, saying, "She's from your hometown, right? She rarely came to see you after entering Zhongcui Palace, but now she thinks of you again. It's really..."

Ling Yunche explained hurriedly, "No, Yan Wan didn't come here for any of these reasons. Not long after she entered Zhongcui Palace, she was demoted by Concubine Chun to work in the Flower House. The work in the Flower House is tough, so she didn't come to see me."

Ruyi was furious when she heard Ling Yunche's explanation for Wei Yanwan. She suppressed her anger and said, "What did you promise her that you come to me for help?"

Ling Yunche: "Please, Concubine Xian, help her transfer out of the flower room and find a lighter job. I dare not ask for anything more than that, I just hope that she doesn't have to work so hard and be bullied."

Ruyi frowned and thought, "But right now, the flower room needs to deliver flowers to the various palaces, so we need more manpower. Perhaps after spring, I can find a way to transfer her to a better place."

Ling Yunche was overjoyed and bowed to express his gratitude, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"

The servants behind Ruyi, each with their own agenda, were puzzled by her actions. Did Concubine Xian even have to wait for the greenhouse's approval to transfer a servant? And with spring here, wouldn't the greenhouse be even busier?

Kunning Palace

In the evening, Wei Yanwan came to see Ling Yunche happily and handed him a roasted sweet potato.

Ling Yunche happily took it and said while eating, "I asked Concubine Xian, and she said she would help you find a good job in the spring."

Wei Yanwan asked happily, "Really?"

Ling Yunche also laughed and said, "Of course it's true, how could it be false?"

The two chatted and laughed happily, and when they saw that it was almost time, Wei Yanwan left. She still had a lot of things to do in the greenhouse.

Yangxindian

Hongli and Fucha Langya mentioned the matter of holding a New Year's banquet.

Hongli: "Ruyi has been wronged for three years. I want to confer the title of Consort Xian on Ruyi at the New Year family banquet to clear her of the injustice she has suffered for so many years."

Fucha Langya smiled and said, "Your Majesty is absolutely right."

Hongli was very satisfied with Fucha Langya's cleverness.

Fucha Langya continued, "However, the sisters in the harem have not been promoted for so many years. Why doesn't the emperor take advantage of the New Year to promote them all? Confer titles on all six palaces and let all the sisters celebrate together."

Hongli thought about it and agreed to the queen's proposal, and asked Wang Qin to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to pick some titles and submit them together.

Wang Qin took the order and left.

Hongli: "In that case, let's promote Concubine Xian to Concubine Xian, Concubine Zhe to Concubine Zhe, Concubine Chun to Concubine Chun, and Concubine Yi... also to Concubine Yi."

Fucha Langya: "Yes."

Hongli thought about it and felt that A Ruo had also suited his taste during this period, so he said: "Shen Guiren will be promoted to Shenpin."

Fucha Langya: "Your Majesty, I also want to ask for mercy for Sister Chen."

Hongli thought hard and finally remembered that there was a Chen Wanyin in the corner.

Fucha Langya: "Sister Chen is also an old member of the Qiandi Palace, with more seniority than the Shenpins and others, but now she is just a concubine."

Hongli: "Then make her a noble lady."

Fucha Langya: "I, your concubine, would like to thank the Emperor for his grace on behalf of Concubine Wan."

Hongli: "Noble Concubine, there is no more title to be given. She is afraid of cold and loves beauty. Give her double the allowance."

Fucha Langya smiled and said, "I, your concubine, thank the Emperor for his grace on behalf of the Imperial Concubine."

When Hongli saw Fucha Langya smile, he completely forgot about the idea of ​​getting unique treatment for Ruyi, and even wanted to talk to Fucha Langya about the marriage between Yonghuang and Jingqin.

When talking about Jingqin, the couple were both very satisfied. In her previous life, Jingqin knew Hongli's preferences very well, and in her new life, she coaxed Hongli like a grandson.

Not to mention Fu Cha Langya, a typical curly mother. Yonglian wants to be curly but can't, and Jingse refuses to be curly at all. Only Jingqin shares the same ideals with her, and she is also her first child. How can she not like her?

As soon as Hongli mentioned that Jingqin and Yonghuang were old enough to get married, the smiles that had just appeared on their faces almost broke. The couple looked at each other and tacitly changed the subject.

It was obvious that neither of them wanted Jingqin to get married early.

As for Yonghuang, let alone, Zhepin treated Yonghuang like the apple of her eye. She wanted to skip Zhepin and choose a wife for Yonghuang? Hongli was afraid that Zhepin would be so angry that she would die.

So the original discussion of marriage turned into a group of praise for Jingqin. The couple even picked and chose the candidates proposed by the court officials.

Hongli and Langya were almost expressing their disdain for the minister who submitted the candidate for the son-in-law, but Wang Qin finally came back.

Hongli glanced at the titles handed to him and felt that they were somewhat inappropriate. He said casually: "Noble Lady Ye is given the title of "Shu", Concubine Lu is given the title of "Qing", and Concubine Bai is given the title of "Mei".

Wang Qin: Your Majesty, you have your own ideas, why did you make me go to the Imperial Household Department for nothing?

Wang Qin was obviously angry but dared not say anything, and began to flatter Hongli's literary talent.

Seeing that things had become confusing, Fu Cha Langya didn't want to disturb Hongli anymore and took her leave.

After Fu Cha Langya left, Hongli and others wrote the imperial edict and sent it to various palaces.

The other concubines had long known that Hongli had ordered Qin Li to make a new auspicious dress for Ruyi, and they were furious. But who knew that once the Empress went to the Yangxin Palace, the Emperor changed his mind and conferred titles on all six palaces. The concubines were all very grateful to Fu Cha Langya.

In addition to Ruyi, although Ruyi was surrounded by spies from other palaces, she had Li Yu in front of the emperor, and she knew early on that the emperor wanted to make her the Empress Xian.

Now that she was enjoying the happiness of her own life, she was about to go crazy. However, she was as calm as a chrysanthemum and could not bear to complain. She knew that A Ruo had already established her own business and no one would speak up for her.

But no one cares about Ruyi's thoughts. Even Yihuan is happy about the new title. How could she care about Ruyi's mood?

After the New Year, all the concubines were promoted to a higher rank, and their faces were filled with joy.

long street

Ruyi supported Jinxin and walked slowly on the long street. Although she was promoted, Ruyi did not show any joy.

Jinxin is the new head aunt of Ruyi. Her original name was not this. Ruyi changed it because all the concubines in the Qiandi Palace had senior maids with the character "xin" in their name, but she did not have one, and she was afraid of causing discussion.

So Ruyi changed her name to a similar one in an attempt to get away with it.

Ruyi was walking aimlessly when she suddenly saw Ling Yunche walking past the group. She said in surprise, "Guard Ling, please stay."

Ling Yunche bowed and said, "We haven't even congratulated Her Majesty Empress Xian on her promotion yet. What instructions does Her Majesty Empress Xian have?"

Ruyi: "I have completed the task you entrusted to me. Although Wei Yanwan is still working in the flower room, she only needs to deliver flowers and plants to the various palaces and no longer needs to work hard to cultivate them."

Ling Yunche smiled and said, "I thank Her Majesty Empress Xian for your great kindness!"

Seeing Ling Yunche's smile, Ruyi said sarcastically, "Look at you smiling like that. Are you so happy that Wei Yanwan got a good job?"

Ling Yunche: "Yan Wan and I are of the same mind. She has found a good job, and I am happy for her."

Ruyi wanted to say something, but then she thought of a way and said, "Since you like her so much, in a few years, I will ask the emperor to arrange a marriage for you two. With your husband and wife being of one mind and striving together, you will surely have a bright future."

Ling Yunche was overjoyed and knelt down to salute, saying, "Your humble servant thanks Empress Xian for her grace."

Another day of heavy rain

Long Street

Ling Yunche held up a large oil-paper umbrella to protect Yanwan, who was holding a Yaohuang peony in her hands.

Seeing that they were almost at Changchun Palace, Wei Yanwan said, "We're almost there. You should go back first. It's not good for others to see you."

Ling Yunche: "It's raining so hard, I'd better take you to the ground. Besides, I'm escorting the Queen's flowers."

Wei Yanwan smiled and said, "You were so focused on me and the flowers that you didn't even notice your shoulders were wet."

Ling Yunche looked at his shoulder and smiled, "It's okay."

On the other side, Ruyi also came from that side and went to Changchun Palace to pay her respects to the Queen.

Ruyi might have been a little presbyopic, and she looked for a long time before she could see clearly that it was Ling Yunche and a young and beautiful palace maid.

Ling Yunche also saw Ruyi and asked in surprise, "Hey, Empress Xian?"

Wei Yanwan didn't know what was wrong. When she saw Concubine Xian, she wanted to run away, but Ling Yunche pulled her back and said, "It's okay. Come with me to pay my respects."

Ling Yunche and Wei Yanwan approached and saluted.

Ling Yunche: "I am Ling Yunche, the guard of Kunning Palace, greetings to the Empress Xian."

Wei Yanwan: "I am Wei Yanwan, the maid in the Flower Room, and greet Her Majesty the Concubine Xian. May Her Majesty remain in peace and health."

Ruyi said calmly, "Get up and raise your head."

Wei Yanwan looked up.

Ruyi looked at Ling Yunche and smiled faintly, "She is really beautiful."

Wei Yanwan: "Your Highness, Concubine Xian, your compliments are too much for me to accept."

Ruyi looked at the flowers in Wei Yanwan's hand, a plan coming to mind. She smiled and said, "This flower in your hand is the famous Yaohuang variety from Luoyang. Where are you going to send it?"

Wei Yanwan: "I was ordered to go to Changchun Palace. However, I have never been to the Empress's palace and I am afraid that I might break the rules."

Ruyi smiled and said, "The Empress is the Empress, so Yaohuang is the most suitable decoration. I also want to go to Changchun Palace to pay my respects, so please come with me."

Wei Yanwan said happily, "Thank you, Empress Xian!"

Ruyi left on her own and glanced at Ling Yunche before leaving.

Wei Yanwan saw Ruyi leaving and hurriedly chased after her despite the heavy rain.

Changchun Palace

Wei Yanwan was waiting in the courtyard. Ruyi waited at the door for a while.

Lian Xin: "The Empress is talking to Consort Zhe and the eldest princess. Consort Xian, please come in."

Ruyi goes in. Langya is talking with Jingqin and Concubine Zhe.

Ruyi bowed and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Empress."

Concubine Zhe stood up and returned the greeting calmly.

Fu Cha Langya was confused. In the past, Ruyi didn't even want to come for the routine greetings, so why did she come here this time?

Langya said kindly, "Get up."

Wei Yanwan was waiting outside, holding flowers in her hands and looking a little anxious.

Lianxin: "Are you here to bring flowers?"

Wei Yanwan: "Yes. This is my first time to Changchun Palace delivering flowers. These are the famous Yaohuang peonies cultivated in the greenhouse. I'm afraid the rain will damage them."

Lian Xin: "The Queen likes peonies, come with me."

Lian Xin led Wei Yanwan in and said, "Your Majesty, the flower room has sent a pot of peonies."

Fucha Langya said gently: "Put it down."

Wei Yanwan put down the Yaohuang peony and stepped aside, standing respectfully.

Jingqin noticed something was wrong and stared at Wei Yanwan. How could this be? Hadn't she been reborn? How could Wei Yanwan still exist?

(The following is my own opinion, you can directly cross it out, or discuss with me: Is Ruyi deliberately wearing Yaohuang Peony to disgust the Queen?

The Ruyi in my book did it on purpose. She wore the Yaohuang peony to disgust Fucha Langya. I also think it was intentional in the drama.

In the play, Ruyi has said more than once that the queen has taken her position as the wife. She doesn't even want to go to the routine greetings, and she often dozes off and makes small movements.

Why did she suddenly change her mind and want to pay her respects to the Queen? I think she got a Yaohuang Peony dress and couldn't wait to pay her respects to the Queen, which disgusted her.

Some of Ruyi's fans said that she brought Yongqi to meet the Queen. I think it was just an excuse. If that was true, Ruyi was simply insane. Yongqi was only a few months old at the time, and she had to take him out in the heavy rain to pay his respects to the Queen?

There are also those who say Ruyi can't recognize the Yaohuang Peony. This is even more ridiculous. On the long street, Ruyi herself told Wei Yanwan that they were Yaohuang Peony. She could recognize them just by looking at the flowers Wei Yanwan was carrying. But she couldn't recognize the pattern of her clothes after looking in the mirror eight hundred times. This is even more ridiculous.)
