Chapter 219 I obey the Queen in everything
"The child in Rong Pei's belly is also mine."
The emperor was still in a state of confusion when he heard Rong Pei's voice. Without caring much else, the emperor said something that even he himself could not believe.
The momentary indignation gave the emperor enough courage, but when his courage faded, the emperor felt a chill.
What was cold was Ruyi's gaze.
With a chill in his voice, the emperor hastily said:
"The die is cast. I will announce my decree and confer the title of Rong Pei as Lady Rong.
Live with Concubine Han in Chengqian Palace."
Ruyi's eyes had already turned bloodshot.
Noble Lady Rong, the emperor must have said this on purpose for her to hear, so that she could tolerate Rong Pei.
Rong Pei was also allowed to live in Chengqian Palace. Concubine Han was a concubine that the emperor was obsessed with, so now it was Rong Pei's turn.
No, Ruyi couldn't swallow this. It was hard to imagine when Rong Pei had become involved with the emperor.
Rong Pei is old and is the wife of a eunuch, but the emperor doesn't mind her?
Ruyi, who was getting angrier the more she thought about it, spoke.
"emperor……"
The emperor had anticipated what Ruyi would say, and without waiting for her to explain, he pulled her over.
The words were quite flattering:
"Ruyi, do you think I am so kind to the people around you?"
"Although Rong Pei is pregnant, she is not a girl from a noble family. Giving her a noble lady is already a compliment. What do you think, Queen?"
"If you feel that giving her the position of a noble lady is unfair to her, how about I give her the position of a concubine after she gives birth to an imperial heir?"
"If the Queen feels that it is inappropriate, please make an arrangement. I will obey the Queen in everything."
Ruyi was speechless.
The emperor no longer felt nervous or guilty, and waited quietly for Ruyi's response.
The emperor said this, if Ruyi could not tolerate Rong Pei, it would be Ruyi's fault.
Besides, as an emperor, he had to report to Ruyi in detail before taking in a palace maid.
Isn't this exactly what Ruyi wanted? She should be touched.
The emperor has a firm grasp on Ruyi's mind.
Ruyi was unhappy, but since the emperor had begged her, what else could she do?
Unable to do anything to the emperor, Ruyi subconsciously saw Yanwan.
"Empress Ling, did your evil plan succeed?"
"You knew about the emperor and Rong Pei's affair long ago, but you refused to tell me. Are you just waiting for me to make a fool of myself here today?"
"You told Zhao Jiuxiao to keep silent just to see how I punish you and let the emperor see whether I am cruel or not?"
Ruyi never reflects on her mistakes. Rong Pei is with her every day. The emperor hasn't favored her like this for many years. It can be said that she sees Rong Pei every day.
Is there something wrong with Ruyi not thinking about the emperor? She really thinks the emperor dotes on her.
Since Yan Wan was innocent, there was no need for her to respond to Ruyi in a humble manner.
Yan Wan said to Ruyi with a provocative smile in her eyes:
"Your Majesty, what you said is really unfair to me.
Rong Guiren is a member of the Empress' palace. How did I know when she became pregnant? And how could I have any intention to plot against her?
As for Zhao Jiuxiao, he is just loyal to the emperor."
Ruyi's body shook slightly.
Wei Yanwan is hurting her heart.
It means that she doesn't care about the servants around her and that she can't keep an eye on the emperor.
Talking about Zhao Jiuxiao naturally means that Zhao Jiuxiao is loyal to the emperor and can keep secrets for the emperor.
Doesn’t it mean that Wei Yanwan understands the overall situation?
In other words, she has lost her sense of the overall situation!
The young eunuch who had been holding back for a long time finally mustered up the courage to step forward and said:
"Yes, Empress, it's not your fault that Imperial Concubine Ling didn't say anything. Imperial Concubine Ling was doing it for the Emperor's reputation. Empress, you really wronged Imperial Concubine Ling."
The young eunuch didn't dare to say openly that Ruyi was a troublemaker, so he could only remind her in a tactful way.
The young eunuch standing next to him also quickly echoed him.
"That's right, Imperial Concubine. It's not that we are unwilling to testify for you. We are led by Eunuch Ling to arrest Guard Zhao and Aunt Rong, oh no, Lady Rong.
so……"
With someone taking the lead, everyone expressed their opinions, saying that it was not that they did not want to speak out, but that they just did not dare to speak out.
The emperor waved his sleeves, and naturally wanted to severely punish Ling Yunche for exposing him and Rong Pei, but Ruyi was unhappy, so the emperor had to smile to appease Ruyi:
"I know that you are all loyal to me.
Jinzhong, why don't you take them all away and reward them well."
The emperor spoke, and Jinzhong stepped forward and immediately took away a group of young eunuchs.
As for where it was taken, the emperor didn't say, but Yan Wan knew, and Ruyi and Ling Yunche probably didn't care.
In the following months, these people were killed or sent away for various reasons, and no one was spared.
At that time, Ruyi and Ling Yunche only said that these people had done a poor job before and mentioned it briefly.
At the moment, the master and servant were shocked by the affair between Rong Pei and the emperor, so they naturally didn't care about the lives of the young eunuchs.
Those who deserved punishment were punished, and the emperor also rewarded those who deserved reward.
Zhao Jiuxiao's loyalty was commended and his official rank was promoted.
On the pretext that Yan Wan was frightened, she was rewarded with a lot of jewelry and nutritional supplements.
As for Ruyi, the emperor rewarded her and personally sent her back.
Seeing the emperor holding Ruyi's waist and coaxing her to leave, Yanwan hurriedly bowed and said:
"I congratulate His Majesty on the birth of his heir. Congratulations to His Majesty..."
Yan Wan wanted to say congratulations to the emperor for getting Rong Pei, but she really couldn't say it.
Changed his words:
"I will escort Concubine Rong back to Chengqian Palace on behalf of the Emperor."
Ruyi hesitated to move forward. She felt so uncomfortable holding her breath. She kept blinking her eyes and breathing to adjust her mood.
Wei Yanwan wasn't congratulating her at all; she was clearly disgusted with her.
Ruyi was in a state of confusion, Ling Yunche looked at her anxiously. She thought Ling Yunche had something to say.
Ruyi comforted herself that Ling Yunche was still there at this time.
"Your Majesty, I want to take a walk in the Imperial Garden by myself."
The emperor didn't want to accompany Ruyi anymore. Ruyi suggested to go by herself, and the emperor let go of Ruyi's hand without thinking.
"Alright."
The emperor withdrew too quickly, leaving Ruyi with a feeling of emptiness around her waist.
Facing the emperor's smiling face, Ruyi forced herself to walk away.
As soon as he turned the corner, Ling Yunche spoke impatiently without waiting for Ruyi to ask.
"Your Majesty, how could the child in Rong Pei's belly be the emperor's?"
Ling Yunche's memory of that day became clearer and clearer. He began to doubt that he was not dreaming that night. But the emperor said that the child was his.
Ruyi held it in for a long time, thinking that Ling Yunche was comforting her, but she didn't expect that Ling Yunche was concerned about Rong Pei.
He said angrily:
"Why, do you hope that the child is Zhao Jiuxiao's?"
Ruyi noticed that Ling Yunche's face was filled with anxiety. She understood this kind of anxiety. Did Ling Yunche fall in love with Rong Pei?
Ruyi really couldn't stand it.
"Don't you still hope it's yours?"
"You don't recognize your identity?"
Ling Yunche was frightened and struggled internally. He really wanted to tell Ruyi the truth, what if the child was his?
But when he saw Ruyi's suppressed tears, he knew that she was hurt and wronged. He suppressed the thought.
Lost Road:
"I am just a eunuch."
Ruyi looked at Ling Yunche with impatience and heartache.
"Let's go."
Ling Yunche followed behind Ruyi, but kept looking back at Chengqian Palace. He had some questions that he wanted to ask.
In Chengqian Palace.
Yan Wan had just sent Rong Pei in when she saw Jing Se waiting.
"I have been waiting for you for a long time, Your Majesty."
