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

Chapter 54: Rong Pei appears, Concubine Zhe is seriously ill

Since everyone in Jingren Palace was released, their attitude towards Ruyi has become even worse than before, especially Jinxin and Sanbao. The other servants all know that Ruyi is cold-hearted, and they have masters behind them, so they are not so heartbroken.

But there is some resentment. If it weren't for Ruyi herself not knowing the limits, how could they have gone to the Ministry of Punishment in vain?

Sanbao and Jinxin were different. They were captured early, and Ruyi had never taken care of them during that time.

Now that the situation is urgent, Ruyi is trying to save herself. What kind of thing is this? She only realized she had a broken horse after it hit a tree? Did you start breastfeeding after your child died? Fortunately, they sought refuge with Wang Qin in time, otherwise they wouldn't have made it out alive!

Although it was unknown who the master behind Wang Qin was, anyone was better than Ruyi. At least the new master was really helping to take care of things, and the subsequent punishments were just for show.

With such an attitude, everyone treated Ruyi even worse. Jinxin and Sanbao were lying in their rooms recuperating from their injuries and couldn't get up. Ruyi was not at ease using the other people and was not at ease with them.

Ruyi also knew that this would not work, so she planned to go out and look for some new servants.

As soon as Ruyi arrived at the Imperial Household Department to select a servant, Qin Li respectfully asked Ruyi to leave on the grounds that the Imperial Household Department was short of staff.

Ruyi knew Qin Li was seeking revenge, but to maintain her dignity, she ignored it and instead said loudly, "I'm looking for a few palace maids and eunuchs to serve in Jingren Palace. Does anyone here want to volunteer?"

Upon hearing this, the people in the Imperial Household Department who were slacking off were frightened and returned to their posts, scattering like birds and beasts.

Qin Li didn't expect that Ruyi had such power. If she came every day, how much higher would the efficiency of his Imperial Household Department be?

Qin Li smiled and said, "I'm afraid it won't work today. The Imperial Household Department is short-staffed, as you can see. Why don't you come back tomorrow, Noble Concubine Xian? Maybe there will be more people tomorrow."

Ruyi glared at Qin Li, but Qin Li remained unmoved. Ruyi turned around and left angrily.

Ruyi sat in a sedan chair and let everyone carry her around aimlessly. Ruyi looked around, and the servants who were well-informed and knew that Ruyi was going to select palace maids and eunuchs all lowered their heads, fearing that they would be seen by Ruyi and taken into the palace.

Ruyi looked up from her sedan chair and saw a group of older palace maids standing under the red wall, all of them around forty years old.

Eunuch Zhao, who was in charge of personnel transfers in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, had just been helping Qin Li to fend her off in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and now he was standing on the long street assigning places to people.

Ruyi asked, "Where are those palace maids from?"

The newly promoted senior palace maid Yun Ling explained, "My dear, these palace maids are staying in the palace to serve because they have no one at home.

They are all newly transferred from the Old Summer Palace by the Imperial Household Department. They are said to be experienced and well-versed in the work. They have just been given a lecture and will be transferred to the various palaces."

Ruyi nodded and had an idea in her mind. An orphan girl who would never marry and a nanny who was experienced in her work, weren't these the aunt-in-charge chosen by heaven for her?

Ruyi continued to observe when a palace maid in blue suddenly ran out and questioned Eunuch Zhao, "Eunuch Zhao, why do you allocate all the money you collected to serve in the six palaces? We have no money to spend, so you assign us to work in the laundry department. There is no such thing as this."

Eunuch Zhao angrily shouted, "I tell you, silver is the most valuable thing in the world, and you're still making a fuss?"

Eunuch Zhao raised his hand and slapped Rong Pei. Rong Pei fell to the ground, and Eunuch Zhao continued to slap Rong Pei and said, "I told you not to yell, I told you not to yell..."

Ruyi shouted, "Stop the sedan, Yunling, you go."

Yun Ling obeyed and stepped forward, shouting, "Zhao Quancai! Stop! Imperial Concubine Xian is here, how dare you act rashly?"

Eunuch Zhao knelt down in fear and shouted, "Greetings to Concubine Xian."

Yun Ling continued, "Empress Xian ordered that Zhao Quancai, acting tyrannically, be sent to the Ministry of Punishment to receive fifty lashes of the cane. From now on, he will no longer be required to serve in the Imperial Household Department."

Eunuch Zhao knelt down and begged for mercy, "Noble Concubine Xian, please forgive me. Noble Concubine Xian, please forgive me."

Ruyi didn't look at Eunuch Zhao and continued, "Yunling, bring that maid over here."

Yun Ling turned around and shouted, "Come here for a moment."

Rong Pei hurriedly walked up to Ruyi and knelt down again.

Ruyi continued to instruct, “Yunling, go to the Imperial Household Department and inform them to be fair, otherwise Zhao Quancai will become an exception.”

Yunling took the order and left.

Rong Pei kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Noble Concubine Xian, for upholding justice for this servant."

Ruyi asked, "You are a straightforward person and very courageous. You just shouted it out. Aren't you afraid of being at a disadvantage?"

Rong Pei said righteously, "It doesn't matter if I suffer a loss, but I can't let my sisters who have no money suffer a loss."

Ruyi smiled and said, "You are a man of ideas. I like you. Come and work in Jingren Palace."

Rong Pei was new in the palace and had no money to inquire about the news. She had no idea how dangerous Jingren Palace was. She was surprised and said, "Thank you, Concubine Xian!"

Ruyi sat in the sedan chair and left with satisfaction, while Rong Pei stood up and followed closely behind the team.

Yun Ling went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to give the order, and when she came back she was told that a senior palace maid had been parachuted in. She felt like the sky had fallen.

Fortunately, the position of head aunt is under the pressure of Jin Xin, and Rong Pei cannot climb up for the time being and can only be a colleague with Yun Ling.

But Jinxin is still lying in bed recuperating from her injuries, and Rongpei is very much to Ruyi's liking. Rongpei firmly suppresses Yunling and temporarily takes over as the aunt in charge of Jingren Palace.

Yun Ling and the other servants had no objection. Being the head of Jingren Palace was not an easy job. The former head aunt and head eunuch had just come out of the Ministry of Punishment.

I heard that he was even subjected to thirty-six punishments by the Ministry of Punishment and still can't get up. The position of Jingren Palace's head is only treasured by the newcomer Rong Pei.

Jinxin and Sanbao, who were lying in the room leisurely recuperating from their injuries, sneezed several times. Who missed them so much?

Because Ruyi had been involved in rumors before, Hongli didn't want to enthrone Ruyi again in the short term. Ruyi sat in the position of Consort Xian for two years.

Because she was only a noble concubine, although she was given the right to assist in managing the six palaces, it was still not legitimate. The concubines in the harem did not need to pay their respects to Ruyi, and the harem was calm for a while.

Also, because Ruyi's ability to manage palace affairs was indeed not high, Hongli had no choice but to grant Concubine Chun and Concubine Yi the power to assist in managing the six palaces.

Prince Guo’s efforts also paid off: Prince Guo’s wife, Ilari, became pregnant, and she didn’t dare to tell the truth until she was three months pregnant.

When Yonghuang saw that Prince Guo had a child, he became even more anxious and went to the palace to ask Concubine Zhe for help.

Concubine Zhe had no choice but to bow her head and find Concubine Chun, asking her to introduce a niece from her natal family to Yonghuang as his concubine.

Concubine Zhe and Concubine Chun had a good relationship, so Concubine Chun quickly agreed and introduced Su Qingyu, the legitimate daughter of the Su family's branch.

When Concubine Zhe saw Su Qingyu, she was very satisfied and asked Hongli to grant her to Yonghuang as his concubine.

Perhaps it was because of her strong genes, Su Qingyu became pregnant less than three months after arriving at the eldest prince's house, but suddenly had a miscarriage at two months.

Yonghuang suspected that it was his wife, Niu Kulu, who had murdered his offspring, and he wanted to get to the bottom of it, and the relationship between the couple became increasingly strained.

Niuhulu was completely disheartened. She had chosen her at the cost of offending the Empress Dowager, but in the end, when there was a problem with the child, she was the first one to be suspected. What was she? Niuhulu agreed to Yonghuang's request and insisted on investigating it thoroughly.

Concubine Zhe had no choice but to mediate and sent the imperial physician to the mansion for a thorough investigation. Su Qingyu kept explaining that it was her own problem and not the concubine's, but Yonghuang didn't believe it.

The imperial physician carefully examined the patient and took his pulse, concluding, "Garcinia is toxic to the kidneys. The eldest prince's kidneys are weak, and his essence is naturally weak. Weak essence leads to weak fertility, and weak fertility is prone to miscarriage.

The concubine had a miscarriage because of her weak sperm, not due to any external factors."

Yonghuang was devastated and unable to recover. He asked in disbelief, "Why is Prince Guo's wife okay?"

The imperial physician wiped his sweat and said, "You are different from Prince Guo. Prince Guo's body is cold, which makes it difficult for a woman to get pregnant. You are weak in energy, which makes it difficult for a woman to get pregnant and give birth.

"Madam, I would like to ask, was your period on time last time? Did you have unbearable abdominal pain when it came? Was it continuous and unusually heavy?"

The concubine next to the concubine replied, "The concubine has always had irregular periods and abdominal pain, but the period has been continuous and heavy twice, once in June of last year and once in February of this year."

The imperial physician pressed the issue, "Have you ever seen an imperial physician?"

Niuhulu shook her head and said, "I have seen the court physician, but not the imperial physician. I have always been like this. It is not a big deal."

The imperial physician sighed, "If Your Majesty still wants a child, then he should find a skilled gynecologist. The Concubine has already had two miscarriages, and the palace physicians haven't found anything yet?"

Niuhulu was stunned, tears welling up in her eyes as she asked, "What? Imperial Physician, what's wrong with me?"

The imperial physician sighed, "She's already had two miscarriages. Fortunately, both were short-lived. She can recover with some care. Only if Concubine is in good health can she last more than two months."

Yonghuang stopped the imperial physician and asked, "Imperial physician, did my mother know about this a long time ago?"

The imperial physician shook his head and said, "It would be difficult for a doctor who is not well versed in gynecology to determine this. If I had not discovered that Concubine Fujin had two miscarriages, I would not be so sure."

Yonghuang, in a rare display of filial piety, ordered, "Please ask the imperial physician to keep this a secret and not tell my mother. I will ask the Emperor to transfer you to my residence."

The eunuch behind Yonghuang understood and stepped forward to hand the imperial physician a silver note. The imperial physician took it hesitantly and nodded.

Niuhulu was still feeling sad about her child. Su Qingyu followed Su Lujun's good nature and comforted Niuhulu silently.

Yonghuang said with shame: "Fujin...it's me..."

Niu Hulu said in a hateful voice: "Your Majesty, I want to go back to Niu Hulu's mansion."

Yonghuang's expression changed, and he advised, "I am sorry for you. From now on, it will only be you and Qingyu in my house."

Niuhulu sneered and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, but I miss my mother at home and just want to go back to see her." She said it nicely, but it was because she was a rooster that couldn't lay eggs!

If the imperial physician hadn't discovered that it was his own incompetence, he would have wanted to put the blame on her! Now that he's discovered that it's his own incompetence, he's started a life of three people. How ridiculous.

Unlike Ilari, who did not have a prominent family background, Niuhulu went home to complain decisively, with a pretext that she was going back to her parents' home to recuperate. She also did not want to be discovered: because you are not good enough, you caused me to have two miscarriages, right?

Yonghuang was furious and helpless, watching Niuhuru board the carriage to Niuhuru.

Niu Hulu Mansion

The Jinchuan War was a failure, and Nianqin, as the main culprit, was ordered to return to the capital by Fucha Fuheng, who was sent to clean up the mess.

The people sent by Jingqin mixed in and kept threatening Nianqin, vividly describing the emperor's anger and the immediate execution that Nianqin was about to face. In order to save his life, Nianqin pretended to surrender to Jingqin. Jingqin asked someone to tell Nianqin how to beg for mercy.

Nianqin acted recklessly because he was a relative of the empress dowager. Although he had Jingqin's brilliant plan, he did not take it to heart and said a few words according to his own temperament in the hall.

After Neqin finished speaking, he looked at Hongli's cold eyes, which were as cold as if he were looking at a dead person. He suddenly started and blurted out all the words Jingqin had told him. He cried and explained that the previous few sentences were all lies. His original intention was...

I have failed the Emperor's grace and am truly disloyal and unjust. I am terrified...

If Your Majesty is willing to forgive me, I am willing...

Hongli's expression changed from gloomy to bright, and Nianqin breathed a sigh of relief, Princess Yongle, you really didn't lie to me!

The death penalty can be avoided, but the punishment of life cannot be escaped. Nianqin's position was completely demoted, and now he is idle at home. Just then, his daughter came back, and Nianqin got up and went to the door to greet her.

After all, she is the wife of a prince. Even if she is just Nianqin's concubine, Nianqin has to pay his respects according to the rules.

Seeing Nianqin's depressed look, Niu Kulu felt even more upset. She no longer cared about her own affairs and kept comforting Nianqin.

Nianqin waved his hand, and Yonghuang and his people pleaded for him in the palace. He knew that it was his daughter's credit, and asked why Nianhulu returned home.

Niuhulu spoke incoherently. Nianqin's face darkened and he said, "At that time, I didn't want you to participate in the selection. Prince Guo and the eldest prince are both mean-spirited. If you can't give birth to an heir, they will definitely blame you.

If it weren't for the Queen Mother's pleading, I wouldn't have agreed to let you go to the selection. Even if you did, Prince Guo wouldn't choose you, but a poor man instead, which would have caused you to be chosen by the eldest prince."

Niuhulu cried even louder.

Nianqin comforted him, "It's okay. Your mother-in-law is a clear-headed person. In order to make up for us, she promised her niece to your brother. Although she is only a side branch, she is still related to the Fucha family.

With this relationship, you can act tyrannically in the eldest prince's house, and the eldest prince dare not control you, and he can't have children! This time you come back, stay at home and recuperate. Divorce is not an option. No prince has ever divorced since the founding of the Qing Dynasty..."

Niuhulu nodded, said nothing, and went back to her room to complain to her mother.

Yonghuang went to the palace with great effort, begging for mercy and crying, and finally got the doctor who diagnosed him back from the palace to his mansion. However, Concubine Zhe was exhausted because of the things happening in Yonghuang's mansion and fell ill again.

This time, Concubine Zhe was seriously ill. Yonghuang was so scared that he didn't dare to have children. He lived in the palace and took care of Concubine Zhe wholeheartedly. He didn't dare to do anything naughty, for he was afraid that Concubine Zhe would die of asphyxiation.

Niu Hulu did not dare to stay in Niu Hulu's mansion any longer, and hurried into the palace to help Yonghuang take care of Concubine Zhe. She also brought Su Qingyu with her, for fear that Yonghuang's external brain - Concubine Zhe - would die like this.

Under the meticulous care of the three, Concubine Zhe's energy level increased from half a bar to one bar. Although she was still bedridden, she was out of danger.

Su Lujun also often visited Concubine Zhe and comforted her carefully, which made Yonghuang very grateful for Su Lujun's kindness. Concubine Zhe also always reminded Yonghuang to remember to repay Su Lujun's kindness.

Yonghuang thought of a way to repay the favor. Yongzhang was more poisoned than him and his kidney energy was weaker than his. When Yongzhang got married, he could send a royal physician to Yongzhang!

In front of the two of them, Yonghuang solemnly promised: "Mother, Empress Chun, don't worry. When Yongzhang gets married, Yonghuang will give him a generous gift."

Concubine Chun smiled and didn't take it to heart. Concubine Zhe was relieved to see that Yonghuang was sincere.
