Yan Wan is reborn as a legitimate wife: Curing Ruyi's Douyi syndrome
Chapter 46 Eastern Tour - Jingqin Asks for Marriage
Queen Mother's Residence
Although the Empress Dowager appeared confident in front of Fucha Langya, she was privately very anxious. She anxiously asked Fujia, "Naiqin and the others advised against Hengti marrying to Mongolia. Did the Emperor listen?"
Fujia comforted her, "Don't be anxious, Queen Mother. You must remain calm."
The Empress Dowager sighed, "The Emperor hasn't come to pay his respects in a few days. He seems to be avoiding me. There are many things I can't say, but someone must speak to me."
Fujia: "But the Emperor has been so worried lately that he rarely even sees the Empress. Right now, I'm afraid only Concubine Xian can speak to the Emperor. Shall I go and invite Concubine Xian over?"
The Queen Mother: "Should we go find her on our own initiative? But I don't want to give her that face yet."
Fujia advised, "Yes, but Queen Mother, although Lord Nianqin has been in the court, urging the Emperor not to marry Princess Hengti, he has also advised you privately that it is not a bad thing for Princess Hengti to marry into the Khorchin tribe.
After all, the Khorchin tribe is the leader of the Mongolian tribes, and marrying the eldest princess there would also be beneficial to your status in the palace and the court."
The Queen Mother retorted, "How could I not know? But all the benefits put together are not as important as having my child by my side. When Hengchu married far away... I was first a mother, and then a Queen Mother!"
The palace maid stepped forward and reported: "Empress Xian has come to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager."
The Queen Mother glanced at Fujia complacently and said, "Let her in."
Ruyi came in, raised her head and saluted confidently, saying, "Your concubine pays her respects to the Empress Dowager."
The Queen Mother: "Get up. Sit down."
Ruyi stood up and walked to the lower left of the Empress Dowager and sat down.
The Queen Mother asked, "What are you doing here at this time?"
Ruyi said respectfully, "As a junior, I have come to relieve the Empress Dowager's worries."
The Queen Mother said disdainfully, "The ministers of the previous dynasty were unable to persuade the Emperor. Do you want to persuade him too?"
Ruyi smiled and said, "I'm afraid the courtiers didn't persuade her to the point. However, Lord Zhang Tingyu met with the emperor and explained the advantages of marrying Princess Hejing or Princess Yongle."
The Queen Mother pressed the issue, "Did the Emperor listen?"
Ruyi said confidently, "I don't know. But I implore the Empress Dowager to inform the court officials and strongly advise Princess Hengti to marry far away."
Fujia looked at the gloomy face of the Queen Mother and asked cautiously, "Empress Xian, aren't you poking at the Queen Mother's heart?"
The Empress Dowager stared at Ruyi with a gloomy expression. Ruyi continued confidently, "Not only that, the Empress Dowager must also let the Emperor know that she has learned of the benefits of marrying the eldest princess and is desperately trying to get her to marry far away."
The Queen Mother asked suspiciously, "I'm going to ask for permission myself? To marry Hengti?"
Ruyi smiled and nodded, "Yes. However, I don't really want the Queen Mother to marry off her daughter. I want to help the Queen Mother keep the eldest princess by her side. That's why I begged the Queen Mother to make arrangements. The more the Emperor and the Empress know that the Queen Mother is planning to marry off her daughter, the more likely it is that the eldest princess will be kept by her side."
The Queen Mother understood and said with a smile, "Choose what is beneficial?"
Ruyi nodded and smiled, saying everything without saying a word.
……
(After comparing the script and the TV series, I found that there are still many discrepancies in this part. In the script, Langya married Hejing because Langya was dying of illness and wanted to find a big backer for Hejing.
In the TV series, it was Fucha who forced Langya to marry her daughter for profit, and Langya, under pressure from her family, agreed to marry Hejing. That's amazing! Just by changing the setting, they can give the Queen another point of criticism.
Moreover, in the script, Ruyi directly admitted that she hated the Queen and wanted revenge, but the drama changed it to two inexplicable eye contact scenes, making Ruyi deny that she deliberately wanted revenge, and only said that she wanted to share Hongli's worries...
To be honest, it would be better not to add these two eye contact scenes, as they make Ruyi seem like a villain who has succeeded.
Note: In many of the Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace videos, the comment sections are dominated by comments expressing hatred towards the Empress. Don't read them; they're truly disturbing. I believe everyone can decide for themselves what's right and wrong.
Hongli received the news that Ruyi went to the Empress Dowager, and his eyes darkened.
The court officials who were arguing with each other suddenly changed their tone when the Queen Mother's faction, led by Nianqin, strongly advocated that Hengti marry far away. Of course, the Queen's faction was unwilling to give up and directly agreed to Nianqin's request.
The ministers knelt together in the court and begged for Hengti to marry far away. Only then did Nianqin realize that something was wrong. Wrong? Why is this not according to the script? Nianqin quickly signaled for someone to send a message to the Queen Mother.
Hongli agreed immediately and said, "Since my dear ministers all agree, I will ask the Empress Dowager for her opinion. If she is willing, I will let Sister Hengti marry into the Khorchin tribe."
After Hongli left the court, he slowly went to the Empress Dowager's residence. The Empress Dowager hurriedly received the news and did not dare to play any tricks. She hugged Hengti and cried, and did not agree to let Hengti marry far away.
Queen's Residence
Fucha Langya mentioned the debate in the court today and said hopefully, "Fuheng said that Nianqin and others tried their best to persuade Princess Hengti to marry far away, and the emperor agreed. Jingqin, your father still loves you."
Jingqin smiled. Love them? She had served Hongli for more than ten years in her previous life. How could she not know what kind of person Hongli was? Hongli, that coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong! He just wanted to warn the empress dowager. He took Zhang Tingyu's words to heart.
Jingqin smiled bitterly and said, "Empress Dowager, we can't hide away from this. If the Emperor really wanted to marry Aunt Hengti, with such a good opportunity, he would go to the Empress Dowager's palace right after the court session, not giving her any time to react.
Now the Emperor is leisurely going to the Imperial Madam's palace. Nianqin's letter has already arrived. What's the point of going now? The Imperial Madam will not agree. The Emperor just wants to use this incident to warn the Imperial Madam and Nianqin. "
As expected, Lianxin reported back, "The Empress Dowager did not want to marry Princess Hengti. The Emperor was furious and severely scolded Lord Nianqin for bringing this up."
Fu Cha Langya had a gloomy face and said nothing.
Jingse was no fool. After listening to Jingqin's explanation, she understood everything. She made up her mind and said through gritted teeth, "If the Emperor allows me to marry, then I will marry."
Jingqin comforted her, "I'm the eldest sister, so I'm the one who gets married. How can the younger sister get married before the elder sister?"
Jingse cried, "How could the Emperor be so cruel..."
Seeing Jingqin had made up her mind, Yonglian asked, "Big Sister, is there any other way? Could we really ask the Emperor to grant us a marriage?"
Jingqin shook her head and said, "I will go to the Emperor in person and ask him to arrange a marriage for me."
Fu Cha Langya was horrified and said, "How can this be possible! Jingqin, the matter has not yet been concluded, why is it necessary to do this?"
Jingqin: "When the matter is finally settled, it's already too late. The Emperor wanted us sisters to marry far away. Instead of letting the Emperor speak himself, why not let me speak? A little bit of guilt is worse than a father-daughter separation."
Yonglian understood Jingqin's thoughts. Since the situation was irreversible, he had to fight for more benefits for himself.
Yonglian: "Since Big Sister has made up her mind, let's discuss how to proceed."
Fucha Langya and Jingse were shocked and asked, "Yonglian (brother) why are you here too?"
Yonglian looked at the still ignorant Fucha Langya and Jingse and said, "Big sister's ability is not inferior to Yonghuang and me. Marrying to Mongolia is also an option. If handled properly, big sister can firmly control the Khorchin tribe in her hands.
I understand my elder sister's ambition. But this is bound to be unfair to Abo and Zhang Jiashi."
Jingqin thought of the cheerful boy and hardened her heart. She abandoned Ling Yunche in her previous life and wanted to abandon Abai in this life. She was destined to be unable to indulge in love.
Jingqin: "Abo... just think of it as me being sorry for him. We are truly not meant to be together."
A-bai was Yonglian's study partner, so he naturally knew how much A-bai liked Jingqin, but things change.
Yonglian said, "Since my elder sister and Abai are no longer possible, we cannot afford to lose Zhang Jiashi as a helper. Agui's eldest daughter Shushu is five years younger than me. I will ask the emperor for permission to marry Shushu as my legitimate wife."
Jingqin understood that Yonglian wanted to help her appease Zhang Jia, but Yonglian was innocent. How could she let Yonglian sacrifice his own marriage?
Jingqin objected, "Yonglian, you don't have to do this. Even without Zhang Jiashi's help, I can still accomplish what I want to do. Besides, Shushu is not old enough, you have to wait a few years."
Yonglian smiled faintly and said, "Marrying Shushu would easily resolve the issue and preserve Zhang Jia's support. Big sister, I can't make the decision or help with your marriage to Jingse, but I can at least make the decision about my own marriage, right?"
Fucha Langya frowned and said, "But Shushu is really too young. If you wait until she reaches the age of 15, Yonglian, you will have to wait until you are 20 to get married."
Yonglian said indifferently, "My son is not in good health, and the imperial physician also said that I need to take good care of myself. It's just right for me to marry at the age of 20, and it will also reassure the emperor. Shushu is still young, and I can cultivate a good relationship with her."
Fu Cha Langya didn't say anything else. Yonglian and Jingqin were both strong-willed. Since they had made a decision, they would not regret it. Besides... Yonglian was diagnosed with asthma by the imperial physician two years ago, and she had to use a lot of effort to suppress it.
Only Hongli and she knew about this in the palace. If Yonglian married Shushu, it would delay the wedding for a few years and would also be beneficial to his condition. Fu Cha Langya looked at her daughter and son who were worried about her and made a decision.
Fucha Langya said, "Then after Jingqin and Jingse are married, Mother will take Yonglian and Shushu to live in the palace permanently."
Jingse also said: "After I get married, I will move to the other palace to accompany my mother and brother."
Jingqin understood what Fucha Langya and Jingse meant. She was marrying into the Khorchin tribe, the leader of the Mongols. Yonglian was going to marry the legitimate daughter of the Zhangjia clan, and Jingse was going to marry the Uya clan. In addition, her maternal grandfather was the Fucha clan. With such a prominent family background, it was natural for them to keep a low profile.
Jingqin said worriedly, "Empress Dowager, you and Father Huang are husband and wife, why do you need to move to the palace just for your daughter?"
Fucha Langya said coldly, "'When we grow old together, old age will make me resentful!' Your royal father, for the sake of his power, wanted to ruin the arranged marriage. When he promised you and Jingse, he and I were no longer husband and wife."
Jingqin didn't try to persuade him anymore and laid out her plan: "I want to wait until the Emperor can no longer sit still, then publicly request permission to marry me to Khorchin. Wang Qin will handle this matter with due discretion."
Fu Cha Langya and the others nodded.
On the second day, the Queen Mother's party in the court generally overturned their previous remarks and began to strongly oppose Hengti's marriage to a distant place.
The Queen's Party certainly would not let off the hook for such frequent changes in policies, and they severely impeached him, causing the Queen Mother's Party to lose several generals.
Lian Nianqin had to send a letter to the Queen Mother to complain, asking her to stop making trouble and just marry Hengti off.
Of course, the Queen Mother refused and said through gritted teeth, "Ruyi...you are truly a good niece of the Ulanara family!"
Hongli was also on pins and needles. The Empress Dowager and the Empress were competing with each other, and he was caught in the middle, feeling like a nobody. Moreover, Zhang Tingyu's words hit home with him. He didn't want the Empress Dowager to have another son-in-law with a prominent family background.
But Fu Cha Langya changed from her usual docile nature and refused to give in no matter what. He also couldn't go directly to his two daughters for fear of hurting the relationship between father and daughter.
Hongli thought for a moment and said, "Li Yu, go to Concubine Xian and ask her to..."
Hongli thought about the concubines who were serving him and found that apart from Yihuan, there was no concubine who was on good terms with Ruyi.
I could only continue, "Let her find a concubine to accompany her to persuade the two princesses."
Li Yu happily said, "Yes."
Wang Qin on the side rolled his eyes, made an excuse of having a stomachache, asked Jinzhong to take care of him, and quietly passed the message to Jingqin.
Jingqin received the message and winked at Suxin. Fucha Langya and Jingqin changed into court robes and tidied up their appearance.
