Chapter 60: Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace - Yongqi 10

As soon as the queen died, the concubines in the harem became active.

Concubine Hui passed away last year, and Concubine Xian was disliked by Emperor Qianlong.

As a high-ranking concubine with a son, Concubine Chun was very confident. Somehow she felt that the position of empress was already in her pocket, so she acted as a leader in front of Empress Fucha's mourning hall.

The Queen Mother knew what Concubine Chun had done, and snorted coldly, "Concubine Chun is stupid and can't see the situation clearly. She doesn't even think about her own background. How could the Emperor make her the Queen? No wonder the princes she taught are short-sighted..."

Yongqi was practicing calligraphy quietly on the side. When he heard the Queen Mother's words, his heart paused.

Yes, Concubine Chun was born in the Han Army Banner, and there has never been a Han empress since the founding of the Qing Dynasty. If Concubine Chun became the empress, the Manchu ministers of the previous dynasty would not agree.

Her mother was also very anxious. In her previous life, she had madly suppressed all the concubines in the palace who had children and were favored, just to pave the way for Ruyi.

Now that Ruyi has been under house arrest, she has become disillusioned with the Emperor. Even after the ban was lifted, she has not stepped out of the palace and even refused to see the Emperor when he came.

Ruyi shouldn't fight for the position of queen anymore, right?

Yongqi thought he knew his father the Emperor quite well. Since Ruyi had humiliated him so much, he would no longer have any feelings for Ruyi. If she didn't want to see him, she would never see him again.

Ever since the Fifth Prince appeared in the Cining Palace, the Empress Dowager has had a smile on her face every day and rarely talks about matters in the harem in front of the Fifth Prince.

She looked at Yongqi who was practicing calligraphy obediently beside her. Her mind was not on Concubine Chun, but she was staring at Yongqi from head to toe.

It's a change of seasons, it's time to change Yongqi's clothes.

I thought about asking Fuga to go to the warehouse to see if there was any good material.

After Yongqi finished practicing his calligraphy, she asked him to pick out the fabrics he liked and made him a few new sets of clothes.

Under the protection of the empress dowager, Yongqi's body became healthier and healthier. The cinnabar poison he had brought with him from the womb had long been cured by the empress dowager. As long as Yongqi took care of his health in the future, the bone-attaching disease would not recur.

The dispute in the harem had nothing to do with the Cining Palace. After Yongqi entered the Cining Palace, the concubines in the harem thought that the emperor had abandoned Yongqi and did not care much about him, let alone the issue of who would take the throne.

Among the princes, Yonghuang and Yongzhang were favored by people in the palace, and their minds became active.

Yonghuang was registered under the name of Empress Fucha, and was already a legitimate son. If Concubine Chun came to the throne, Yongzhang and the still young Yongrong would also be legitimate sons, with the same status as him.

Yonghuang looked at Yongzhang, a man of honest character, and had some thoughts in his mind.

He couldn't give Concubine Chun the chance to become the queen. Otherwise, given Concubine Chun's personality, she would do her best to assist her son and would not care about herself, the adopted son she had once raised.

In this way, Yonghuang used the same tactics he had used on his royal father.

He instigated Yong Zhang to strongly recommend his mother as the queen in front of the Emperor. Given the Emperor's personality, seeing that Yong Zhang had such ambitions, he would definitely not make Concubine Chun the queen.

Unfortunately, Yonghuang himself was not very smart and did not expect that Yongzhang would reveal his identity as well.

The result is predictable. Yonghuang and Yongzhang were both scolded by the emperor, and Qianlong made it clear that they had no right to inherit the throne in this lifetime.

Yongqi had never expected that Yonghuang and Yongzhang escaped the test of Empress Fucha but were defeated by the Emperor. The two were scolded by the Emperor as in their previous lives, and after they got married, they left the palace and built their own homes.

Because Yonghuang was still a legitimate son and had the support of the Fucha family, he was not depressed in the days that followed. The ones who were depressed were Concubine Chun and Yong Zhang.

Concubine Chun never imagined that her stupid son would openly recommend her to his father, the Emperor, for the position of Empress. This would expose the ambitions of both mother and son to Emperor Qianlong!

Concubine Chun had not been in good health in recent years, and after this blow she was even more devastated and bedridden. Yongzhang was already old, and in another year or two he could leave the palace and set up his own home. Being rejected by Emperor Qianlong at this time, one can imagine how difficult his future life would be.

Knowing that Yongzhang was instigated by Yonghuang, Concubine Chun hated him so much that she took Yonghuang away before she died.

Yongqi had never expected that without himself and his mother, Concubine Chun, Yonghuang and Yongzhang would have ended up with an even more miserable ending than in their previous lives, and he felt mixed emotions for a moment.

Ye Xin was waiting on the side. Seeing Yong Qi in a trance, she asked softly, "Fifth Prince, are you thinking about Concubine Chun?"

Yong Qi came back to his senses and shook his head at Ye Xin, "No, I just think that Concubine Chun shouldn't be like this."

Concubine Chun poisoned Yonghuang in her real name. Because of the crime of poisoning the prince, Concubine Chun could only be buried as a noble lady and could not even enter the imperial mausoleum.

In her previous life, Concubine Chun was buried in the imperial mausoleum with the ceremony of a noble concubine.

Ye Xin didn't want to talk too much about his master, so he shut up at the right time and didn't continue talking about Concubine Chun with Yongqi. Yongqi stopped thinking about Concubine Chun and continued to do the work at hand.

After Concubine Chun died, the young Yongrong was sent to be raised by Concubine Wan, a little-known girl in the palace.

The childless Wanpin was very happy about the sudden appearance of a son, and she now had hope for her future.

After the incident with Concubine Chun, Qianlong made it clear to the harem and the court that he would never appoint another empress in his lifetime.

Yongqi grew up safely to adulthood as he wished, but Ruyi was depressed over the years and passed away two years ago. After Ruyi's death, Qianlong recalled the past and gave Ruyi the title of Imperial Noble Consort and buried her in the imperial mausoleum.

Over the years, Wei Yanwan has been deeply loved by Emperor Qianlong and has been giving birth to children. Now she is also Concubine Ling.

Wei Yanwan is ambitious but also knows her limits. She does not desire the position of queen, but the position of imperial concubine, second only to the emperor.

Unfortunately, her birth was too low, so Qianlong only treated her as a favorite concubine, and never thought of giving her a position above the position of noble concubine.

Wei Yanwan became more and more impatient, especially after Zhao Hui brought back Han Xiangjian from the Han tribe, she became furious.

Han Xiangjian was extremely beautiful. Qianlong was deeply fascinated by her at the first sight. Despite everyone's opposition, he promoted Han Xiangjian to the rank of imperial concubine.

The Empress Dowager ignored Qianlong's suicidal behavior.

The only high-ranking concubines in the palace were Concubine Ling and Concubine Ying of the Mongolian ethnic group. Because they advised the emperor to do something, he demoted them. Han Xiangjian thus became Concubine Rong of Emperor Qianlong.

Yongqi knew Han Xiangjian, but he didn't expect that without the obstruction of Concubine Xian and others, Han Xiangjian would directly become the emperor's concubine.

Han Xiangjian hated Qianlong. If she became a noble concubine, wouldn't the emperor be in danger?

Yongqi glanced at the calm and composed Queen Mother and had an idea in his mind.

The Queen Mother looked at Yongqi and knew that Yongqi had guessed it, so she said to him, "Xiaowu, you have grown up, and there are some things you should understand."

Yongqi replied respectfully: "Grandson understands, Madam Royal."

"You just understand."

In this way, the grandfather and grandson watched Qianlong commit suicide quietly in the following days.

Qianlong was old, and Concubine Shengrong was getting weaker and weaker these days. Unfortunately, Qianlong took none of the concubines in the harem to heart. In this way, Qianlong died suddenly in an extremely indecent posture.

Afterwards, the Empress Dowager concealed the real cause of Qianlong's death, and Concubine Rong was sentenced to death by the Empress Dowager.

After Qianlong's death, there was not much trouble in the harem because of the Empress Dowager. Yongqi of the previous dynasty had the help of Empress Dowager Nian's relative Niohuru, and became the new emperor against all odds.
