Chapter 100 Chapter 100
[Chapter 100]
Wei Maoyuan's men moved a little slowly. They had been by the emperor's side for many years, so if it was another concubine, it would be no problem. But the person in front of them was the apple of the emperor's eye, so they dared not move.
Hong Yuan was kneeling on the ground, being pulled by the eunuchs. There were many guards outside, so she was so ashamed that she wanted to bang her head against the wall and die. She bit her lower lip tightly, but she finally stopped because she was afraid of letting out some tears.
When Tingxu saw Hongyuan's look, he was so angry that his eyes widened. He had thought that Hongyuan was hardworking, quiet and meticulous, so he let her enter the inner hall to serve him. But he didn't expect that she would have such thoughts.
Yan Shiyu's dark eyes darkened as he looked at Wei Maoyuan, which made Wei Maoyuan shudder. He didn't know what stupid thing he had done just now that he dared to look at Ying Chongrong for such a long time.
After waving his hand, the servants standing in front of Yu in the outer hall lowered their heads and dragged Hong Yuan out directly.
Hong Yuan realized it only then. She crawled forward with her hands on the ground and looked at Ruan Yun in panic, "My queen, I know I was wrong. My queen, please save me."
Wei Maoyuan saw the appearance of the palace maid in front of him and shook his head secretly. Now he knew he was scared and he really didn't know what he had done just now.
However, before Hong Yuan could say a few words, the emperor put his big hand on Ying Chongrong's ear, and then took Ying Chongrong into the inner hall.
The master was not there. Tingxu looked behind the screen and knew that it was best for her not to go in. She said stiffly to Wei Maoyuan, "Hongyuan has made a big mistake and has displeased the emperor. The queen is pregnant now. What Hongyuan did is to kill the queen. The eunuch must punish her."
Even if he didn't say anything, Wei Maoyuan could still understand the emperor's meaning from the cool aura that just emanated from his body.
Hong Yuan had her mouth covered by someone's hand. When she heard Ting Xu and Wei Maoyuan casually mention the punishment they would give her, she couldn't help but shake her head.
However, Tingxu did not have the slightest sympathy for Hongyuan. If he could not completely solve the problem this time, she would become even more powerful and who knows how much trouble she would cause in the future.
Hong Yuan was dragged outside the palace. The guards in front of him asked Wei Maoyuan what he thought. Wei Maoyuan clapped his hands and said, "Send him to the Ministry of Punishment. If he can come out alive, we'll talk later."
Most people cannot bear the punishment from the Ministry of Punishment.
Palace officials who made mistakes would go to the Ministry of Punishment. Since Hong Yuan had just done such a thing, it was natural for them to think about what would happen next.
There was a person standing under the corridor, holding onto the pillar and wanting to rush out, but when she saw Hong Yuan shaking her head, she stopped again. The medicine in her sleeve took effect, burning her so much that she felt pain and tears fell uncontrollably.
However, she could do nothing at this moment and could only watch Hong Yuan being taken away.
When he closed his eyes, he could still remember Hong Yuan's last expression. He turned his head to look towards the main hall. After the grief, the hatred in his eyes deepened.
Inner Temple
Yingning handed the red date tea to the empress and hurriedly put a soft pillow behind her. She wanted to say something, but Ruan Yun was very upset.
How to explain this matter? Hong Yuan was a member of her palace, and it was because she did not manage the palace people well that Hong Yuan had such thoughts. She had not even noticed it before.
I touched my lower abdomen and felt very irritated, and my mood was in turmoil.
Yan Shiyu sat down beside her, took the handkerchief handed to him by Yingning with his big hand, glanced at Yingning with a gentle look, and had to retreat in a hoarse voice.
The handkerchief was close to Ruan Yun's face. She wanted to use it to wipe her tears, but Ruan Yun avoided it. She was very depressed. "Your Majesty should go to someone else's palace, so that he won't scold me and say that I am wrong again."
Yan Shiyu sneered, obviously annoyed by Ruan Yun's unreasonable words, "She wants to come in, what can I do?"
His face was as black as a pot, and even his dark eyes hid a hint of depression.
Ruan Yun was already feeling uncomfortable, and her heart was choked up after hearing the emperor's words. "Your Majesty is right. You can't do anything. It's all my fault for not managing the palace maids well and making Your Majesty feel bad. It's all my fault."
Seeing that she was becoming more and more outrageous, Yan Shiyu directly grabbed Ruan Jun's hand and brought her into his arms.
Who knew that Ruan Yun would turn her head away, secretly wiping away tears with sadness.
Yan Shiyu turned Ruan Jun's little face over, and a soft look flashed across his eyes.
The tears fell all over the flower's face, just like the dew on the delicate and beautiful flowers in the garden.
She has black hair and fair skin, almond-shaped eyes like rippling spring water, a strand of hair hangs in front of her body, the red mark on her cheek is like a touch of red in the stamen of a flower, her brows are furrowed like spring mountains, and her eyes are full of affection.
"I haven't said anything yet."
Ruan Jun couldn't stop complaining in her heart. The emperor really didn't say anything, but his expression had already told her what he was thinking.
"If I were not here today, would His Majesty...have favored Hong Yuan?"
Yan Shiyu's eyebrows, which had originally calmed down, began to beat violently again because of Ruan Jun's words. He looked at Ruan Jun with a cold voice, "What do you think of me?"
Ruan Yun whispered, "Didn't the emperor also fall in love with me, a servant, at that time?"
These words made Yan Shiyu even more angry. He looked around and realized that the place he had been in before was no longer possible because Ruan Jun was pregnant. He could only rub her earlobes hard. Seeing that she wanted to avoid it because of the numbness, the side of her neck was already red:
"I think if you don't clean up in a few days, you will become lawless!"
Ruan Yun held Yan Shiyu's arm and said, "Your Majesty is right."
After what happened just now, the sleepiness I felt was much relieved.
Ruan Yun was wearing a lilac-colored cloak, her black hair was tied up with only a silver pin, with some hair falling on her temples, nestled in the emperor's arms.
Wei Maoyuan in the outer hall didn't hear any other movement inside, so he felt relieved.
Tingxu came over unhappily, and just as she was about to go in, Wei Maoyuan hurriedly stopped her and said, "Neither the Emperor nor the Empress called anyone, what are you going to do in here?"
Because of Hong Yuan's matter, Ting Xu was in a bad mood and was only thinking about the Empress inside. Don't take this matter too seriously, otherwise it will hurt your body.
"I'm going to give the queen some of the tranquilizing soup prescribed by Imperial Physician Sun. The queen can't sleep well at night, and she needs this to fall asleep."
When Wei Maoyuan heard this, he naturally stopped Tingxu from doing so. He glanced at the inner hall, pulled Tingxu away, and then said, "The emperor is inside, your majesty doesn't need this. If your majesty wants to drink, you will be called later."
Tingxu wanted to say something, but looking at the quiet inner hall, she could only put the support aside silently. She was bored and Hongyuan's matter lingered in her mind for a long time.
Yinli came to Linxuan Palace in a hurry, ignoring Ruan Yun inside, and wanted to speak directly.
Wei Maoyuan is more confused than the others. How come he is a member of the palace of Concubine Xian? And he always comes when the Emperor is with Ying Chongrong, just to compete with Ying Chongrong.
Being stopped by the people in front of her, Yinli had to achieve the purpose of coming here today even if she didn't want to do what Wei Maoyuan said. Her tone was very flustered and her words were incoherent.
"I shouldn't have come so late at night, but my queen is ill and is in a very bad condition, so I wanted Your Majesty to come and see her."
Wei Maoyuan looked towards the inner hall in embarrassment, "The emperor is in a bad mood today, I advise Miss Yinli not to get into trouble."
She said earnestly: "If Concubine Xian is feeling unwell, wouldn't it be better for her to go and ask the imperial physician directly?"
Yinli obviously didn't know what to say next, but if the emperor didn't go today, all the grievances that the queen had suffered would have been in vain.
Therefore, Yinli told Wei Maoyuan what happened today in a few simple sentences:
"Today, Wen Baolin went to the Empress Dowager's palace, but he was very disrespectful to my queen. When my queen came out of the Empress Dowager's palace, Wen Baolin spoke wildly, saying that my queen relied on her high position to bully others."
"My queen has become ill from anger. Please help pass on the message to the emperor to come and see my queen."
Under normal circumstances, Wei Maoyuan would have thought twice before leaving after hearing these words.
But this happened in Linxuan Palace today. Ying Chongrong is pregnant with a dragon offspring. It would be difficult for the emperor to go or not. It might even make Ying Chongrong sad. What if he is not careful and hurts the royal heir?
Wei Maoyuan was unwilling to give in. "Miss Yinli, Concubine Xian is not feeling well right now. The imperial physician has gone, and it would be useless for the emperor to go again. You'd better go back and take care of Concubine Xian. Who knows, maybe Concubine Xian will get better faster."
"You!" Yinli was furious. She really didn't understand why Wei Maoyuan had to do this.
Since Wei Maoyuan was unwilling to help her, she could only think of another way.
Yinli stood at the gate of Linxuan Palace and said without caring, "Your Majesty, my queen is ill. I would like to ask you to come over."
Wei Maoyuan was so shocked when he saw Yinli's actions that he could not stop himself. After he reacted, he quickly grabbed Yinli and said, "Oh! Miss Yinli, the emperor and Ying Chongrong have already gone to bed. If you do this, aren't you disturbing their peace?"
The meaning of these words couldn't be more obvious. Ying Chongrong is now favored and pregnant with a dragon child. Although Concubine Xian doesn't favor her very much, she has the support of the empress dowager and the second prince is also under her wing. Why must she be so hard on Ying Chongrong and now come to ask the emperor to come over in the middle of the night?
Yinli shook off Wei Maoyuan's sleeve and ignored his dissuasion. Seeing that there was still no movement in the inner hall, she shouted again.
Inner Temple
Ruan Jun was already drowsy, but suddenly she heard the noise outside and immediately gave Ying Ning a look.
Ying Ning received the Empress's gaze, bowed, and walked out. Seeing Ting Xu also standing under the corridor, she couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? What happened? You disturbed the peace of the Emperor and the Empress."
Listening to Xuqi's shaking hands, he repeated to Yingning what Concubine Xian had said about asking for help.
Ying Ning naturally didn't like Concubine Xian's behavior. If she remembered correctly, this was the third time Concubine Xian wanted to take the Emperor away from the Empress's palace.
It was just that she couldn't step forward to resolve the matter. She could only hope that Wei Maoyuan, as the former Grand Eunuch, could persuade Yinli to leave and not let her cause trouble in Linxuan Palace.
When Wei Maoyuan heard Yinli's loud cry, he couldn't help but want to cover Yinli's mouth. The emperor must have heard such a loud noise just now.
There was no choice but for Wei Maoyuan to go to the inner hall.
Seeing this, Ruan Yun became even more furious.
She is pregnant, but everyone wants to make things difficult for her and make her unhappy.
She was living a very depressed life, with a sullen look on her face:
"Your Majesty, please don't leave. Your Majesty said that he wants to stay with me tonight."
Her delicate appearance caught Yan Shiyu's eyes, and it was the first time that Ruan Jun hoped he would stay.
The larynx moved slightly and said:
"I won't leave. I'll stay with you."
