[Chapter 164]
Jingzhang Palace
Wang Yi heard what the previous person said and looked very bad, "You go back first, don't let anyone find you."
The man looked at Yi deeply and said, "You have to be careful these days."
Wang Yi avoided the man's sight and urged, "Of course I know, but it's you."
The person in front of him didn't say anything, just curled the corners of his lips and left directly, walking at a moderate pace, disappearing into the night.
After returning to the palace, Wang Yi looked at the extinguished candles in the side hall and sighed for no reason.
In the inner hall, the moment Defei heard Wangyi coming in, her eyes fell directly on her.
Wang Yi felt nervous. She didn't know when she started to be afraid of the Empress's gaze.
He called softly, "My Lady."
Concubine De curled her lips and said, "Tell me, is there anything else that I cannot bear to hear?"
Wang Yi knelt down hurriedly, "Liu Jin went to Linxuan Palace and came out half an hour later."
After that, Wang Yi continued, "Your Majesty, will Liu Jin give the things that he had in the palace to Concubine Ying?"
Concubine De suddenly dropped her teacup. "Waste, a bunch of waste! They can't even keep an eye on a person! What use do I have for them?"
Wang Yi was so frightened that she was shaking and didn't even dare to say a word.
Defei wanted to restore herself to her former self, but she could not calm down her anger.
With her hands on the corner of the table, her eyes were cold and fierce, "Since she wants to join Concubine Ying, why should I keep her? Concubine Ying is just one person saying it, so Your Majesty must believe it? I don't believe it!"
Wang Yi hurriedly stopped Concubine De, "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. Although Liu Jin worked in the Sizhen Room, she was a maidservant of Concubine Shu in the past. She is gone, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs will definitely tell the Empress about this, and then the Emperor will also know."
Concubine De shook her sleeves and said in a shrill voice, "How did the emperor know? I have done it secretly, and it won't be traced back to me, definitely not."
The last sentence sounded almost like a whisper, as if Concubine De was speaking to herself.
Wang Yi did not dare to refute Concubine De, "Your servant, go find someone for the queen."
When Defei heard this, her eyes moved slightly, and then she turned to look at Wangyi's back. Her lips moved slightly as if she couldn't bear it, but she had no choice but to let Wangyi go.
…
Purple Palace
Ruan Yun held Dongdong in her arms, patted his body, and watched him fall asleep in her arms.
Yan Shiyu was sitting at the table. When he looked up, he saw Ruan Yun leaning on the couch. The candlelight illuminated her profile, making her look particularly bright.
Perhaps because of the growth, she has become more feminine than before, and her figure has gradually grown taller and more delicate.
Yan Shiyu knew that he was not a man of great desires, but whenever Ruan Jun was by his side, he always had endless political affairs to deal with.
The late emperor was obsessed with beauty. In the past, he only regarded his concubines as a means of prolonging his heirs and controlling the court.
Unexpectedly, when he came to Ruan Yun, he was deeply attracted to her.
The wet nurse carried the baby away and moved around. Ruan Jun inadvertently looked towards the emperor and noticed that the emperor's throat bone moved slightly and there was lust hidden in his dark eyes, burning every part of her.
Pursing her lips uncomfortably, Ruan Yun wanted to lower her head to avoid the emperor's sight, but she found that she could not avoid it no matter what.
I had no choice but to walk to the table, roll up my sleeves and grind for the emperor, my voice trembling:
"The emperor's affairs of state have not yet been dealt with."
After putting down the memorial in her hand, Ruan Jun felt even more shy.
Even though she did everything with the emperor, even at the table in the main hall, the emperor would pull her aside to fool around.
However, tonight the emperor's eyes were more intense than usual, and she did not dare to meet his gaze.
Yan Shiyu wanted to hold Ruan Yun's hand, but Ruan Yun avoided him.
Yan Shiyu raised his eyebrows, and before he could say anything, Wei Maoyuan suddenly stood behind the screen and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Noble, Dr. Zhou from the Imperial Medical Bureau wants to see you."
Ruan Yun quickly moved away, suppressed the throbbing in her heart and whispered, "Doctor Zhou has been taking care of the eldest prince's pulse. The eldest prince has been recuperating in Jingzhang Palace these days and has not been to school. Did something happen to the eldest prince?"
Hearing Ruan Jun say this, Yan Shiyu glanced at Ruan Jun and tapped the stool beside him, "Sit down."
Ruan Yun sat on a stool, and her soft hand was held in Yan Shiyu's hand. His thin hand unconsciously stroked the back of Ruan Yun's hand, stirring up a thousand layers of feelings in her body, and even a wave of emotions surged in her heart.
Doctor Zhou hurried in with his medicine box, knelt down, and said, picking out the most important things:
"I have been in charge of diagnosing the eldest prince. But today, when I went to Jingzhang Palace to diagnose him, I found that he was in a state of confusion and depression. The eldest prince is still young, and it is not a good thing for him to have such symptoms. I also heard that the eldest prince has not left Jingzhang Palace for a long time. Although he has a hand injury, he should not always stay in the palace."
Yan Shiyu listened, his eyes gradually turning colder.
Ruan Yun asked on behalf of the emperor, "Is the eldest prince's illness serious?"
Doctor Zhou hesitated for a moment, and Yan Shiyu said coldly, "Tell the truth."
Not daring to disobey the emperor's order, Doctor Zhou hurriedly said, "It will be fine for you to leave the palace."
Ruan Jun immediately looked towards Yan Shiyu with her almond-shaped eyes, her lips slightly parted, but she seemed to feel that something was wrong and took her words back.
Yan Shiyu saw Ruan Yun's actions from his remaining vantage point and said in a deep voice, "You go down first."
Doctor Zhou stood up and Wei Maoyuan personally escorted the patient out.
Only Yan Shiyu and Ruan Yun were left in the inner hall. "What do you want to say?"
Ruan Jun hooked her fingertips on Yan Shiyu's palm and said, "I'm telling you, Your Majesty, don't blame me."
Yan Shiyu turned his head and looked at Ruan Yun with a smile, "How can I bear to do that?"
Ruan Yun then became bolder and put all her hands into the emperor's hands.
"I saw the eldest prince in Yu Garden a few days ago. It was unintentional, but I saw that the eldest prince loved painting and landscape painting, and he was also very good at riding and shooting. How could he be willing to stay in the palace?"
Ruan Jun said, with some distress in her eyes, "I don't know if there is any movement. I always want to make the eldest prince happy, so that he won't be so young and look like a childless person."
"When the eldest prince said he wanted to come to Zichen Palace to see the emperor, I knew that the eldest prince must have special feelings for the emperor. Why don't you go to Jingzhang Palace tonight to see the eldest prince so that you can know what the reason is. The eldest prince will get better faster if he sees the emperor."
Yan Shiyu tapped his hand on the table and thought for a moment, "That's fine."
It's not too late, so it's a good time to go.
Ruan Yun was led by the emperor into the imperial procession and headed towards Jingzhang Palace.
Wei Maoyuan winked at Xiao Muzi. Xiao Muzi was very smart and understood what his master meant. He stopped any palace servants in front who wanted to pass on the message.
…
Liu Jin's lips were blocked, and Concubine De looked at Liu Jin with cold eyes, "It turns out that the note is in your hands."
Liu Jin shook her head desperately, wanting to speak, but her lips were blocked and she could only make whimpering sounds.
The De Fei smiled, but it was without any warmth. "I was wondering how you could get your support from the Imperial Concubine, but I didn't expect this to happen. It seems like you don't care about your family outside the palace at all."
Liu Jin wanted to struggle to get up, but was held down by the person next to him, making him unable to move. Only the hatred in his eyes increased.
Defei looked at Liujin's appearance, walked forward personally, squatted down and pulled the cloth out of Liujin's mouth.
However, unexpectedly, Liu Jin spat in Concubine De's face.
I have never been treated like this before, and the person in front of me is just a slave.
De Fei slapped Liu Jin on the face, "Bitch!"
Blood was flowing from the corners of Liu Jin's lips where she was hit. Silver needles had just been pushed into her fingertips, and she was shivering with pain.
"Isn't this exactly what the Queen wants? The Queen wants to get rid of me, so she wants to get rid of my family first, and then have someone kill me. Naturally, I have to find a shelter for myself!"
Defei suddenly realized something was wrong with Liujin's words, pointed at Liujin's nose and said, "You actually thought it was me?"
Liu Jin sneered, "Isn't it?"
Concubine De closed her eyes and said quietly, "If that's the case, there's no need for me to keep you here."
Ruan Jun stood outside the palace with Yan Shiyu. When she heard Concubine De's voice inside, her breathing became rapid and her hands gradually began to feel cold.
Yan Shiyu exuded a cold aura, and when he heard Concubine De's words, the coldness in his eyes increased.
Letting go of Ruan Jun's hand, Yan Shiyu strode straight in.
Liu Jin's lips and tongue were covered tightly with a wet handkerchief. The nanny in Defei's palace also used a silver needle to drill into Liu Jin's fingertips, which soon disappeared.
Suddenly hearing the sound outside the door, Concubine De woke up suddenly. Looking at the scene in front of her and the emperor's increasingly sullen face, she kept herself calm and said, "Your Majesty."
She wanted to go forward, but Yan Shiyu's eyes fell on Liu Jin. "I remember that this person was a maidservant of Concubine Shu in the past. She has already gone to work in the Sixth Chamber. Why is she here with you?"
"Your servant..." There was no one around Concubine De, and Wang Yi had gone out to do something for her, so Concubine De was the only one there.
She originally wanted to keep the matter vague, but Ruan Jun suddenly walked in.
First, her eyes fell on Ruan Yun, and then Concubine De widened her eyes and looked at the person behind Ruan Yun.
Yan Shiyu gave a look and Wei Maoyuan immediately stepped forward and covered Liu Jin's hands with a sack to prevent the Royal Concubine's eyes from being dirty. He also didn't want the Royal Concubine to be frightened by these things.
"Just now, I wanted to go see the eldest prince, but I didn't expect to see Wang Yi serving Concubine De behind the side hall."
Ruan Yun pressed the tip of her nose with a handkerchief and said, "I also saw it. It was a disgusting scene."
All the women in the palace belong to the emperor, even the palace maids are no exception.
But who would have known that Wang Yi would dare to openly have an affair with a guard in Jingzhang Palace.
Wang Yi and the guards were thrown in front of Concubine De. The guards were still wearing eunuchs' clothes, and it was obvious what they did.
Concubine De took a step back, thinking about what Ruan Yun had just said, and sneered, "Concubine Ying Gui is really kind-hearted."
Yan Shiyu said sternly, "Shut up!"
De Fei looked at Yan Shiyu with tears in her eyes, "Your Majesty..."
Yan Shiyu's heart was beating wildly as he recalled what happened last time and what Yinli had confessed:
"De Fei, you really disappoint me."
Defei was stabbed by the emperor. Since she entered the palace, the emperor had never said such words to her.
She staggered back a step, and looked up, her eyes full of sorrow. "What did I do?"
"Your Majesty, please tell me what I have done to make you so disgusted?"
