Chapter 257: Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace, Gao Jiyue (122)
"enough!"
Hongli interrupted her coldly.
The look he cast towards Ruyi was filled with deep disgust.
He asked coldly, "Ruyi, do you have anything else to say?"
"Your Majesty, I have no right to defend myself. Please understand your majesty."
Ruyi burst into tears and cried, "Your Majesty, please have mercy on Jingju.
She is the emperor's daughter.
How can someone be murdered?
Your Majesty, please give Jingxuan justice."
"Humph!"
Hongli snorted coldly, "I did something wrong, so I can't justify myself."
He was silent for a moment.
He asked the people around him, "Queen, how should this matter be handled?"
"Return to the Emperor."
Li Siqi responded softly, "Deal with it as it should be."
She cast her eyes on the uneasy person, “Jingyang has always been respectful to me.
I don't want her to suffer innocently.
Your Majesty, I heard that the candidate for the prince consort chosen by Jingyang was not appropriate.
Please ask the emperor to arrange someone to investigate again.
Or you can let Xiaoliu and the others investigate.
Brothers will definitely not harm their sisters."
"The Queen is saying that it is inappropriate for Nara to worship goodness?"
Hongli was somewhat displeased. "I personally sent someone to investigate. Is there anyone who dares to deceive the emperor?"
"Your Majesty, what is deceiving the emperor?"
Li Siqi's eyes swept over Concubine Ling, "Your Majesty, it's not like you haven't been betrayed by people in the imperial court before.
It wouldn’t be surprising if there was another one.”
"Queen..."
Hongli’s old face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Li Siqi smiled helplessly, "Your Majesty, I am not the kind of person who likes to cause trouble.
I have already said it, indicating that I know some news.
As for whether the emperor wants to investigate further.
It is up to you, Your Majesty, to decide."
"I believe you won't do anything without a purpose."
Hongli values his own reputation.
But he knew clearly what kind of personality his queen had.
He loves his reputation, but he hates it even more when others treat him like a fool.
He looked at his daughter in front of him and said, “Don’t worry, Jingyang.
I haven't issued an order yet.
There is really nothing wrong with Nara's worship of goodness.
I will never let you marry him."
"Thank you, Father Huang."
Jingyang immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Empress Dowager.
Jingxuan has caused the Emperor's father and mother to worry."
"Don't say such stupid things."
Hongli waved his hand and said, "Be more filial to your mother in the future."
"Yes, Jingyu remembers it."
Jingyang responded obediently.
"Somebody come!"
Hongli looked at Concubine Ling and issued an order, "Send Concubine Ling back.
Without my order, you are not allowed to step out of the palace."
"Queen!"
Wei Yanwan screamed desperately, "I am innocent.
Your Majesty, it is not my fault.
It was she, Ulanala Ruyi, who had committed the sin herself..."
No matter how much resentment and injustice there was in her voice.
Still failed to move Hongli, whose heart was as hard as iron.
"Ruyi."
Hongli ordered coldly, “Same to you.
Confine yourself in the palace and reflect on your mistakes.
I will investigate thoroughly and then punish you."
……
What happened to the princess soon spread throughout the harem.
No one expected that there would be such hatred between Ruyi and Concubine Ling.
Some concubines who had never been pregnant would ask the imperial physician for help immediately.
They all wanted to know if they had also been given a sterilizing drug.
Fortunately, it was checked by the imperial physician.
The concubines who were unable to bear children were not given infertile drugs.
After knowing the news.
Not to mention the concubines were relieved.
Even Hongli was afraid of the emergence of such a vicious person.
He knew even more clearly that when Concubine Ling was drugged by Ruyi, the former Queen Fucha Langya was still alive.
The harem is managed by her herself and has nothing to do with the current queen.
He was the one who figured this out.
My impression of Li Siqi became a little better.
He was even more satisfied with her actions of taking care of and protecting Jingyang.
……
a few days later.
When Hongli saw the news, he almost exploded.
He began to trust the people around him and was once again bribed by the concubines in the harem.
Under anger.
An imperial decree directly banished Concubine Ling to the cold palace.
Jinzhong was beaten to death with clubs.
Ruyi is not much better.
Directly demoted to a commoner.
Close the gates of the Yanx Palace and live your life inside there as a vegetarian and chanting Buddhist scriptures.
She won't be released again.
It can be said that they both suffered losses.
None of them had a good ending.
There is no favorite concubine named Concubine Ling.
There are many young and beautiful concubines in the harem.
Hongli still lived a happy life.
Li Siqi knew that he had to take medicine or drink deer blood every time.
Otherwise, he would have no intention or ability to favor his concubines.
half year later.
Jingyang, dressed in her wedding dress, came to Yiku Palace to kneel and express her gratitude.
"Get up quickly."
Li Siqi signaled to Mo Xin to help the person up.
"Jingxuan thanks the Queen Mother."
Jingyang's tone was full of gratitude, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for taking care of Jingxuan."
"You are Welcome."
Li Siqi smiled and said, "You are the royal heirs, and I am the queen.
It is my duty to take care of you."
"I will always remember the great kindness and virtue of the Empress Dowager."
Princess Jingyang responded softly, "In the future, Jingyu will continue to honor the Empress Dowager."
After the news of Prince Consort Nala Chongshan’s revelation.
Hongli then replaced her with another candidate.
A disciple from the Irgen Jueluo clan.
Not particularly singled out, but a good choice nonetheless.
The most important thing is that Jingyang likes him.
Hongli immediately granted the marriage.
Now is the day to get married.
She was unable to go to the Yanxi Palace to bid farewell to her biological mother.
Then I can only go to Yikun Palace to bid farewell to my stepmother.
Of course, she was happy with this.
Send Jingyang away.
Li Siqi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm sorry for the trouble, Empress Dowager."
Mrs. Ilari smiled and said, "Take a good rest for a while."
"Fortunately."
Li Siqi leaned back on the cushion chair and smiled, "I'm getting old, and my spirit is getting worse and worse."
"Madam, you are still young."
Qi Jiajingdong smiled and took over the topic, "Let's sit together.
The daughter-in-law is like an older person.”
"Yes."
The eldest wife nodded and continued, "The Empress Dowager has not changed over the years.
On the contrary, my daughter-in-law now looks like an elderly person."
"Aren't you tired of coaxing me like this all the time?"
Li Siqi laughed dumbly, "Old is old, young is young.
At least spiritually.”
"In the eyes of my daughter-in-law, the Empress Dowager has not changed at all."
The first wife was very happy, "We are still thinking of asking the Empress Dowager for advice on how to maintain a beautiful appearance."
……
With the company of his daughter-in-law, Li Siqi's mood is indeed much better.
Who says these two daughters-in-law are both smart people.
Chatting with them won’t make you feel tired.
After the two had lunch.
The two sisters-in-law left Yiku Palace hand in hand.
"Sister-in-law, thank you."
After walking out of the palace gate, Qi Jia Jingxuan stood beside the carriage and thanked the person in front of her, "If you hadn't been with me, I wouldn't know how to face the Empress Dowager."
"Why are you afraid of the Empress Dowager?"
The first wife had to remind her again, "Since the Empress Dowager is taking care of you, you don't have to worry.
I heard that the Empress Dowager also failed to conceive for several years.
Later, my sixth brother was born.
You have only been married for a little over a year, and the child will definitely come when it is time."
"I know the Empress Dowager doesn't mean to blame me."
Qi Jia Jingxuan smiled bitterly and said, “But I always feel guilty.
I have failed the care of the Empress Dowager."
