Chapter 267 Who is the boss among you three?
Yan Wan sometimes really felt that the emperor's mouth was as if it was poisoned.
When he opens his mouth, even without using any swear words but speaking the truth, it can give people a heart attack.
Looking at Ruyi’s expression, she seemed to be as stiff as a clay statue.
Yan Wan smiled and said, "Your Majesty is right, Concubine Xian. You had a miscarriage but you didn't call the imperial physician but only the emperor. Should I say that you think the emperor is knowledgeable and talented, so he can even protect the fetus, or should I say that you...are deceiving the emperor?"
Ruyi's face turned pale at this moment: "Why does Your Majesty speak to me in this tone? I just feel that my pregnancy is hard and I am really uncomfortable, so I want to see Your Majesty."
Hongli sat helplessly on the bedside: "You always have so many things to do. I remember you said before that all women have to give birth and go through this. Why are you so hypocritical when it comes to you?"
Ruyi's face turned a little green: "Your Majesty!"
She closed her eyes and said, "Do you really have to humiliate me like this in front of Concubine Ling, making it impossible for me to live my life as a human being?"
Hongli softened his heart again: "Forget it, you are pregnant with my child, it is hard after all, it's okay to be hypocritical."
He sat down beside Ruyi's bed and said to Yanwan, "You sit down by yourself."
Yan Wan smiled and said, "Your Majesty is talking to Concubine Xian in private, so I won't disturb them."
Ruyi finally showed a little smile on her face: "Then I will not see you off..."
Yan Wan seemed not to hear her words: "I will go to the courtyard for a walk. The scenery of Yikun Palace is very beautiful. I have never been here before and I want to take a good look."
The smile on Ruyi's face disappeared instantly, and she pouted and looked at Hongli: "Your Majesty, does your concubine think that I didn't invite her to be my guest?"
Hongli did not feel that Yanwan was overbearing at all. Instead, he felt that Yanwan was really considerate. He patted Ruyi's hand soothingly and said to Yanwan, "Just go shopping by yourself. Jinzhong, serve the imperial concubine well."
Jinzhong answered at the door: "I obey your command."
Yanwan glanced at Ruyi with a smile, then turned and left.
Whenever Ruyi thought of Yanwan wandering around her territory at will, she felt very uncomfortable and struggled to think, "It's not good to invite the imperial concubine alone, without anyone to entertain her."
Hongli held her shoulders and said, "Just lie down and rest. I will sit with you for a while and then take the concubine back to Yongshou Palace."
Ruyi: “…”
She looked at Hongli aggrievedly, her eyes full of the innocent confusion of a young girl: "But if the emperor leaves Yikun Palace late at night, others will think that the emperor does not value the child in my belly."
Hongli thought she was really so naive, ignorant, innocent and stupid: "I turned over the name of Concubine Ling today, and I have already gone to Yongshou Palace. She still accompanied me to see you regardless of the past. If she stays at your place, others will misunderstand that I don't care about the concubine who assists in managing the six palaces, and it will be difficult for her to do things in the future."
Ruyi glanced towards the door, almost unable to hold back the hatred and jealousy in her eyes.
He always thinks about her like this, so what about her?
Wei Yanwan, what magic did that woman have that could make the emperor and Ling Yunche obsessed with her and pity her so much? Even a eunuch like Jinzhong was devoted to her!
Hongli lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes covering the dark color in his eyes: "Ruyi, you have already obtained many things that others cannot get. I hope you can be satisfied."
Ruyi didn't understand why he said that: "Your Majesty, you know that I never care about other things. What I care about is that I can grow old together with my young man and love him without any doubt."
Hongli said in a deep voice: "Of course I believe you, otherwise, I wouldn't ask you to support Ah Ruo and Ling Yunche who are full of rumors."
Ruyi pouted, thinking that he didn't trust her. If he really trusted her, he wouldn't always mention Hailan and Ling Yunche, nor would he always make things difficult for them or be jealous of them.
But she knew that the emperor was no longer the same as before and would listen to everything, so she forced a smile and said, "I know that the emperor treats me well. If it were someone else, the emperor would have disliked me a long time ago."
Hongli was somewhat surprised: "So you know everything."
The flesh on Ruyi's cheeks bulged upwards: "Your Majesty and I have been together since childhood, so naturally we have a bond that no one else can compare to."
Hongli smiled and said, "I knew that you, Ruyi, are smart. Then I will tell you straight, I like Concubine Ling very much. If you really love me, I hope that even if you can't get along well with her, you will not scheme against her anymore."
Ruyi: “…”
She forced a smile and said, "I did something wrong before and there are many misunderstandings between me and her. I will try my best to get along with her in a friendly way."
Hongli patted the back of her hand and said, "Just remember one thing. No matter how much trouble there is, nothing can happen to you and Concubine Ling."
Ruyi didn't know whether she should be happy that he finally remembered that nothing could happen to her, or whether she should be jealous of Wei Yanwan, who could be on equal footing with her in just less than three years.
She lowered her eyes and said, "Your Majesty knows me. Apart from my friendship with you, I don't care about anything else."
Hongli certainly knew that she cared about their friendship, but did she only care about friendship? He didn't believe it.
But on the surface, he said nothing, and asked Rong Pei to call the imperial physician over: "After all, we still need to take the pulse to know the exact condition. Remember not to call Zhang Yun, you won't believe it even if you call him, so there's no need to ask him to make a wasted trip."
Ruyi: “…”
She really couldn't force herself to smile at all. Looking at Hongli, who was still handsome and good-looking in the candlelight, she couldn't figure out whether he came to see her or to make her angry.
Outside the main hall, Yanwan was strolling happily.
The Yiku Palace was indeed beautiful, low-key and luxurious, and most importantly, it was filled with a unique sweet fragrance, a scent she had never smelled in any other palace.
Jinzhong asked with a smile: "Does the Imperial Concubine also think that the Yikun Palace is particularly fragrant? I heard that Concubine Xian loves fragrance and even pawned her jewelry just to get some spices in there."
Yan Wan covered her nose and said, "No wonder the emperor always likes to come here."
Jinzhong smiled and didn't respond.
After walking around for a while, she saw Ling Yunche.
Ling Yunche didn't look well, and his gait was very distinctive, with one foot higher than the other.
On his left was Li Yu, and on his right was San Bao, also one taller than the other.
Yanwan found it very interesting and took a few more glances at it.
Ling Yunche's eyes moved slightly, and he quickened his pace a little: "Your servant greets the Imperial Concubine."
The three servants walked together, but he was the fastest and the loudest in greeting, which made him stand out immediately.
Sanbao and Li Yu looked at him at the same time, the former sneered, the latter frowned, and followed suit to salute.
Yan Wan took Jin Zhong's hand, walked into the corridor and sat down. Looking at the three people kneeling in the front yard, she asked with a smile, "Who among you three is the chief eunuch of the Yikun Palace?"
