Chapter 115 Ruyi’s Royal Love in the Palace – Gao Xiyue 15

Langya was confined by Hongli, and no one knew what had happened. Although they were curious, no one dared to ask when they saw Hongli's gloomy face. Qingying claimed that she was different from others, so when Hongli came to her yard, she boldly asked, but she didn't expect to anger Hongli and become the second Jin Yuyan.

Fortunately, Langya was under house arrest, so no one had to go to pay respects, and Qingying was spared the possibility of being ridiculed by everyone. In fact, over the years, the relationship between Hongli and Qingying was no longer as deep as shown in the plot. After all, for the lustful Hongli, Qingying, who would ejaculate as soon as she touched him, not only could not bring him physical communication, but also made him experience the impotence of men.

So no matter how Qingying persuaded or hinted, Hongli still refused to try to consummate the marriage with Qingying. However, Qingying's little follower Hailan still became a princess of the palace like in the plot, but this time it was Xiyue instead of Qingying who offered her the identity.

Xiyue did this not to compete with Qingying for this good sister, but for the baby in Hailan's belly. Looking at the entire Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace, the best prince should be Yongqi except for Yonglian who died young. Xiyue's body is not suitable for childbearing, and Trader No. 4's wish is not to have a child of his own. In this case, isn't it more suitable for one to be willing to give birth to a child for her sister and the other to raise a child?

I have to say that Hailan in the plot seems to have been put under a spell by Qingying. Now that Hailan is being favored by Xiyue, she treats Xiyue as if she has been put under a spell. When she becomes the object of Hailan's spell, Xiyue's dissatisfaction and disgust towards Hailan disappears instantly. Who doesn't like a sincere sister who is devoted to you?

What's more, Hailan is really considerate. All the clothes and handkerchiefs on Xiyue are made by Hailan. She always cares about Xiyue's needs. Most importantly, her brain is still online. No matter what Xiyue wants to do, she will not hinder her.

Hai Lan's gratitude to Xiyue is beyond words. As for Hai Lan, she was bullied after being forced by the prince. Fu Jin ignored it, and the servants laughed at her failure to climb into bed. It was Fu Jin Yue who couldn't stand it and asked for a status for her, turning her from a bullied embroiderer into a princess of the palace with a formal status. Not only that, after becoming a princess, because she was unwilling to accept the favor and was not favored by the prince, it was Fu Jin Yue who offered protection, so that she was not bullied by other princesses and concubines and lived a peaceful life.

So Hai Lan felt from the bottom of her heart that Xiyue was her savior and her good sister, and she wanted to repay Xiyue, but Xiyue was a concubine, not only was she loved by the prince, but she also had an extraordinary family background and did not lack anything.

Hailan was quite uneasy about this and felt that she could not help at all. Fortunately, Xiyue did not despise her, which made Hailan's feelings for Xiyue even deeper. At one point, Xiyue even felt that even if she asked Hailan to die, Hailan would agree.

Not long after, the emperor passed away and Hongli succeeded to the throne. Because the late emperor had said that he and the empress would never see each other again in this life or the next, the empress could not attend Yongzheng's funeral. She was extremely sad and could only suffer in Jingren Palace. At this moment, the maid beside her said that her only chance to leave Jingren Palace had come.

The new emperor met with the ministers. One minister pointed out that according to the ancestral rules, Jingren Palace, as the emperor's legal mother, should be honored as the Empress Dowager, while Concubine Xi, as the biological mother, should be honored as the Holy Mother Empress Dowager. The emperor said that he should consider it carefully.

Qingying came to see the emperor and begged him to let her aunt live out her days in the palace as the empress dowager, so that they could have the best of both worlds. The emperor agreed, and soon after the emperor agreed, rumors began to spread in the palace that "the emperor was blinded by lust and was willing to forgive even her aunt Qingying who had once given him poisoned mung bean soup."

Once this rumor came out, Hongli's face value soared. By the time the emperor remembered to investigate, his mother, the empress dowager, had already died. Now news spread from the uterus that "Qingying killed her own aunt for the emperor."

These two rumors made Concubine Xi, the real murderer, feel that even God was helping her. Not only did he not help to clarify the matter, but he sent more people to continue to add fuel to the rumors.

When the emperor ascended the throne, rumors circulated throughout the capital not about his wisdom and bravery, nor about his filial piety to the late emperor, but about the love story between the emperor and his concubine Qingying. The emperor was willing to forgive the man who once wanted to kill him for his concubine, and the emperor was willing to kill his aunt with his own hands for the sake of his lover. Amid such rumors, Xiyue's gold coins continued to rise.

The emperor wanted to suppress these rumors, but there was no way. It was obvious that the person who poisoned the late queen was the former Concubine Xi, now the empress dowager. But the emperor had no evidence because Qingying was the last person to see the late queen, and it was she who confirmed that the death of the late queen had nothing to do with others.

Now this kind of testimony makes it impossible for the emperor to clarify the rumors. For this reason, the emperor thinks that everything is the empress dowager's conspiracy and becomes increasingly dissatisfied with her desire for power.

The coronation ceremony was officially held, and the emperor issued an edict to honor Niu Hulu as the Holy Mother Empress Dowager and his wife Fu Cha as the Empress. After entering the palace, the Empress Dowager found that the emperor had ordered her to live in Shoukang Palace, and she was very unhappy. She deliberately let Qingying stay alone in the palace in the name of mourning, hoping to force the emperor to agree to let her move into Cining Palace.

Unfortunately, the empress dowager misjudged the emperor's thoughts. In this life, the emperor did not value Qingying as much as in the plot. Soon all the other women in the palace were brought into the palace. Xiyue became Concubine Hui as in the plot, and Hailan became Concubine Hai and lived with Xiyue.

Su Lujun and Chen Wanyin were both noble ladies, while Jin Yuyan was a concubine. Qingying couldn't help it in the end, so she changed clothes with A Ruo and found a way to enter the palace to see the emperor. The emperor had been confronting the empress dowager for a long time, and took advantage of Qingying's loose ladder to let the empress dowager move into the Cining Palace.

The Queen Mother thought that Qingying had spoken well of her, so she lifted Qingying's house arrest and asked her to come over to see her. Qingying took the opportunity to beg the Queen Mother to give her a new name to cut off her past mistakes and pray for new blessings. The Queen Mother asked Qingying what she hoped for most, and Qingying replied, "Deep love and loyalty, and mutual love." The Queen Mother named Qingying Ruyi: "Yi means beautiful and quiet, and perfect beauty in the world is too rare. It would be great if I could be Ruyi."

Qingying thanked the Queen Mother for her teachings and changed her name to Ruyi. The Emperor was dissatisfied when he heard the news, so he only gave Qingying the title of noble lady and let her live in a side hall of the Yanxi Palace.

Ruyi didn't know that her act of asking the empress dowager to change her name made the emperor feel betrayed. She believed that it was the queen's obstruction that made her become a noble lady.

Coincidentally, Ah Ruo also thought so: "My Lord, the Empress must be jealous of the Emperor's sincerity towards the Master and is deliberately suppressing him. Otherwise, based on the relationship between the Emperor and the Master, he will definitely not be able to escape the position of Concubine!"

Ruyi looked at A'ruo calmly, "Okay, A'ruo, the emperor has just ascended the throne and cannot make the decision. This little grievance for the emperor is nothing, so don't say anything more."

"We looked at each other from afar on the wall and on horseback, and I knew I was in love with you the moment I saw you."

"As long as the relationship between the emperor and I remains, what does status matter?"

After hearing this, A Ruo felt that Ruyi was really disappointing. But A Ruo had no choice but to secretly resent the fact that she was not the childhood sweetheart of the emperor.
