Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Spring in the Palace

*Rong Pei had become the head maid of the Yikun Palace. Eunuch Qin Li, the general manager of the Imperial Household Department, refused to change the furnishings of the Yikun Palace and repeatedly made excuses to decline.

Because he only gave the worst items within his power, Rong Pei wanted to find Qin Li and have a good talk with him, but was stopped by Ruyi. After all, he had a reason and a basis for his actions. It was just that the items were a little worse, not that there was anything missing.

Ruyi shook her head gently and said calmly, "Don't bother with such villains. The more they feel that they have treated us harshly, the more we should feel that we have not been treated harshly."

Rong Pei looked at Concubine Xian with admiration, and felt that she was really smart and insightful. "My Lady Concubine Xian, I have met countless people over the years, but I have never seen anyone as detached as you."

"Everyone else in this deep palace fights and robs for glory and a distinguished family background, using whatever means necessary. Only Your Majesty, in this place of intrigue, has retained her most precious heart and self."

Ruyi smiled at Rong Pei and said, "It's enough to know these words in your heart. There's no need to say more." Then her face returned to that unfathomable look.

Rong Pei brought a cup of tea and placed it next to Concubine Xian, and lit a piece of sinking incense. The smoke from the burning incense came out through the small hole in the incense burner, making Ruyi look like a crane in a painting, with two ribbons made of clouds surrounding her.

Like being an immortal.

*July

Yihuan has been pregnant for almost nine months. The spots on her cheeks have disappeared and the edema on her skin has also subsided a little. Upon hearing the news from Qi Ru, the emperor, who was in Changchun Palace, happened to come to Chuxiu Palace with the queen.

As soon as she came in, she saw Bai Ruiji and Yanwan, surrounding Yihuan on the left and right. Bai Ruiji was holding two cloth tigers in her hands, saying that they were all sewn by her own hands, and asked Yihuan to choose which one looked better.

After everyone had paid their respects, the emperor and the empress took the main seats, while Yanwan, Bai Ruiji and Yi Huanteng moved to the chairs next to them.

Seeing that Yihuan looked better, the Queen asked with concern, "Sister Shupin has rested for a while, and she is still as beautiful as before, without any change. And she has also added some of the tenderness and kindness of a mother."

Yihuan smiled gratefully at Langhua and said, "Thank you, Queen, for the tangerines you sent me a few days ago. They have helped alleviate my vomiting. Maybe I can eat more now, and the spots on my face have also decreased."

Yihuan gently touched the spot on her cheek where there used to be spots through the handkerchief.

The emperor looked at Langya approvingly, and the two smiled at each other. He then turned to look at Yihuan and said, "Shupin is indeed in better spirits. The last time I saw you, I felt that you had lost a lot of weight."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I have been recuperating in Chuxiu Palace recently. With the company of Sister Meifei and Sister Lingfei, I feel much better." Yihuan said.

The emperor nodded, looked at Bai Ruiji and said, "I just heard you seem to be asking Shupin something."

Bai Ruiji looked at Yihuan a little embarrassedly, and Yihuan said, "He Xi."

He Xi presented two cloth tigers.

Langya praised, "It has a distinctive shape and a lovely form. It's obvious that Sister Meifei made it with great care."

The emperor nodded, picked one up and said, "I think this one looks the most like it, and it looks adorable, so I'll choose this one."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliments." Bai Ruiji smiled and straightened the corners of her sleeves. It was the first time she was praised for such things, and she felt a little embarrassed.

The emperor handed the selected one back to He Xi, who then gave it to Yi Huan. Yan Wan saw that the other one would be left alone and no one would care about it, so she stretched out her hand and said, "Then this one made by Concubine Mei will belong to me."

Yanwan pinched the little ears of the cloth tiger with one hand, put it on her lap and let it pretend to run.

Bai Ruiji laughed and teased her, saying, "Why are you so anxious? Can you still shorten yours?"

"I'm not worried that my sister will be tired. I meant well, but it seems like I'm to blame." Yan Wan glanced at her, rolled her eyes, and acted arrogantly.

This glance was so light and flirtatious that it seemed like she was flirting with him. It was not directed at the emperor, but it gave him a glimpse of the little girl's coquettish and silly behavior.

"You guys have such a good relationship." The emperor leaned on the soft golden pillow beside him and looked at Langya again, "Don't you think so, Queen?"

Langya sat upright and smiled generously, "I think so too."

*Evening, Yongshou Palace

Jinzhong came over leisurely and said to Yanwan who was lying lazily, "Master Yan, the emperor has turned over your name card tonight. Please pack up and follow me to the Yangxin Palace."

Yanwan glanced at Chunchan, and Chunchan led everyone out.

Yan Wan raised one arm, and Jin Zhong hurried over and held Yan Wan's arm with both hands, "Hey, Master Ling, what happened?"

Yan Wan was pressing him lightly, and she looked listless. Jinzhong was getting anxious. How could she be so listless all of a sudden? She was still energetic when he saw her in Chuxiu Palace in the afternoon.

"Yanwan, what's wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?" Jinzhong lowered his voice and whispered.

Yanwan pouted her lips and blinked her eyes. Jinzhong moved closer and saw that the fairy's eyes had a bunch of small hooks that specifically hooked his soul.

The arm rested in his palms, soft and light, like holding a cloud. Jinzhong was afraid that if he could not hold it, Yanwan would return to the moon.

Yan Wan stood up, but suddenly her feet went weak, as if she twisted her ankle, and she fell towards Jin Zhong, letting out a delicate cry, "Ah."

Jinzhong quickly opened his arms to grab the person, fearing that she would get hurt.

The weather was hot in July, and Yanwan was only wearing a thin layer of gauze over her clothes.

She suddenly fell on Jinzhong, caressing his chest with both hands, looking up at him with an extremely innocent expression, "Eunuch Jinzhong, I fell down~"

He realized that this guy was teasing him on purpose. Jinzhong's half-shaved head was completely red. If he took off his hat, Yanwan could see a red skull that was steaming.

Jinzhong hugged Yanwan and carefully straightened her body. He touched her little face with one hand and coaxed her, "My dear, does your fall hurt?"

Then he held her little hands with both hands and helped her out.

Jinzhong asked in a low voice, "Why are you suddenly interested today?"

Yan Wan gently pinched his palm and snorted, "Who made you so busy lately? Hateful."

"I will rest tomorrow and will definitely come to accompany you." Before leaving the palace, Jinzhong bent down and kissed the little hand, then took a big step and opened the door.

Then Jinzhong waited by the door, a few steps away, waiting for Concubine Ling to go out first.

Yan Wan gave him a look and walked out, "Chun Chan, let's go."

Jinzhong smiled helplessly, straightened his hat, and hurried after him.
