Chapter 414: Impure Child 2
Even though he was extremely shocked, Zhao Hua would not show it on his face.
After Xiao Jingheng left, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, so she planned to find Ning Wanshuang to talk about it.
Just as they were about to set off, Xiao Fuzi, who had gone to Chenggan Palace to deliver the imperial edict, came back.
He said, "Your Majesty, Ruchang is here... Noble Lady Ru was so happy after hearing the decree that she insisted on following me to thank you. She is now guarding the palace gate. Would you like to see her, Your Majesty?"
Zhaohua was about to go out. If a noble person was waiting outside the door, he would be seen no matter what.
So she said, "Since everyone is here, please come in."
She summoned Ru Guiren in the main hall.
When a distinguished person enters the room, the corners of his lips are almost stretched to the horizon.
As soon as she saw Zhao Hua, she fell to her knees with a plop, which scared Zhao Hua out of his wits.
"What are you doing?"
Noblewoman Ru said, "I know that it must be the Empress who spoke well of me in front of the Emperor, so that I could avoid punishment and regain my position as a noblewoman. That's why it was Eunuch Fu who came to deliver the decree, not Jiang Deshun in front of the Emperor. I have no way to repay the Empress for her kindness, so please accept my Mongolian courtesy and kneel down to me!"
After saying this, they respectfully performed the Mongolian kneeling ceremony towards Zhaohua. After standing up, they asked Seji to take out many Mongolian treasures to give to Zhaohua.
But Zhaohua refused.
"I am helping you not because I want to be close to you, but because this matter really has nothing to do with you. When I manage the harem, I will never let anyone suffer injustice.
You were restless in the palace before and did many wrong things, which I saw all of them. In the future, you must behave properly and stop causing trouble, so that you will be worthy of my rescue today. Otherwise..."
Her sharp eyes fell on Ru Guiren's bright face, and she said with a joking smile:
"I can make you a noble today, and I can make you a commoner tomorrow. Do you understand?"
"Of course, of course! I will remember the Queen's teachings." Ru Guiren responded obediently and whispered,
"Having Concubine Hui as an example is not enough to teach people a lesson? But I still can't figure out what evil things Concubine Hui did that made the emperor so intolerant of her that he actually ordered her to be executed."
"Mr. Ru, please be careful with your words." Zhao Hua interrupted Ms. Ru in a deep voice, and said solemnly, "Concubine Hui died of illness, not because of the Emperor's death."
Noble Lady Ru said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, I am sorry for what I said."
Although she said something wrong, she still couldn't change her bad habit of nagging, and she kept muttering like a fly.
"I just don't know what she did. Tsk tsk, she's so young, but she's so thoughtful. She deserves it. If you ask me..."
Zhao Hua felt a headache after hearing her chattering, so he stood up and said:
"If you like to make noise, then go ahead and make as much noise as you want. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
But when she reached the door, she suddenly heard Ru Guiren muttering to herself,
"But she deserves it! The whole palace was hiding the fact that the eldest prince was not Concubine Chen's biological son, but she actually dared to tell the eldest prince about it..."
Hearing this,
Zhao Hua suddenly stopped and looked back, staring at Ru Guiren in astonishment, and asked in a solemn voice:
"What did you say!?"
