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

There was a happy and peaceful atmosphere in the room. No matter what people were thinking in their hearts, they all had smiles on their faces.

Everyone in the room had crescent eyes. The moons were flying around, scraping back and forth, and I don't know who was feeling uncomfortable.

Outside the house, two people looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Ling Yunche stood at the bottom of the stairs, his heart running towards the house, where were the two women with whom he had the only interactions in his life.

One is a benefactor, the other is a lover.

Li Yu looked depressed, and Ling Yunche felt the same way. He also looked like this when things were not going well for him in the past. He also knew that Li Yu loved Suo Xin, and Suo Xin left Yikun Palace to marry someone else, so Li Yu must be feeling bad.

Seeing that he was really depressed, Ling Yunche asked, "Eunuch Li, how have you been lately?"

Li Yu sighed softly, shook his head and said, "The emperor has neglected Concubine Xian, and life in the Yikun Palace has become difficult as well." He did not mention that he was insulted by Qin Li because Ruyi was out of favor, in order to maintain his remaining self-esteem.

Ling Yunche took a deep breath and said, "Empress Xian has suffered such a great injustice." He was often in the imperial court, on duty all day long. In his occasional free time, he would drink a little to relieve his sorrow. The trivial matters in the harem would never reach Ling Yunche's ears.

So he only found out today that Concubine Xian was having a hard time.

"Take care of yourself." Ling Yunche said with concern, and reminded, "Also take good care of Concubine Xian."

Li Yu forced a bitter smile and said, "Yes, I know." But his expression was gloomy and his tone was weird.

pat, pat.

There was the sound of footsteps, and the two stopped talking to avoid being overheard.

Li Yu was waiting at the door. Jinzhong walked out slowly, also holding a whisk. He put it on his arm and stood on the steps in front of Li Yu.

Li Yu raised his drooping eyelids and looked up at the pair of shoes from bottom to top.

Jinzhong stood straight, full of vigor and vitality. Maybe it was because Yanwan was beside him today, but his belt was tied tightly, and the folds of his clothes connecting to the belt were neatly arranged, which showed that he had taken great care of it. He also exuded a sweet fragrance.

The sight of her walking towards Li Yu with her braids swung behind her and her head held high reminded Li Yu of the peacock that Imperial Noble Consort Huixian used to raise, which often spread its feathers to show off to people.

"Master." Jinzhong raised his eyebrows and said respectfully. The faint joy in his voice was like a thin smoke that was blown away by the wind in an instant.

Li Yu always suspected that he was too stimulated by Qin Li, so he often suspected that others were ridiculing him.

Li Yu hunched over and said, "I don't deserve it, Eunuch Jinzhong."

The corners of Jinzhong's lips curled up, and the water on his plump, rosy lips reflected the sunlight. His face was fair and beardless, delicate and flawless, without a single spot on it.

Li Yu, who had not been doing well recently, looked even paler. His face, which used to be as white as a steamed bun, turned into a dead bun today.

Isn't he just a eunuch? He has this strange vitality. He is not even a man, it's ridiculous. Ling Yunche had a stern face, slightly turned his head and looked at Jinzhong with a sidelong glance, feeling disdainful in his heart.

Sanbao told him before that Jinzhong had been very rude to Concubine Xian in order to protect Concubine Ling, and he even threw a bowl of water at Ruyi's feet. He was really crazy.

Ling Yunche recalled that he had overheard Chunchan and Jinzhong's conversation that day, and Jinzhong had hurried over. He knew that Concubine Xian had good intentions, and Yanwan couldn't bear the hardship and complained about being tired, which he could understand. But what did this have to do with Jinzhong? This kind of villain, who didn't get along with Concubine Xian, would be mean whenever he had the chance.

In addition, Jinzhong had crushed the snacks given to him by Concubine Xian into mud, so his impression of Jinzhong was even worse.

Li Yu was bent over, hunched in front of Jinzhong. In the previous life, Jinzhong was bent over, and Li Yu stood up straight, slapping him in the face, just because he helped Master Ling gain favor.

What we are saying is, things will change over time.

Jinzhong smiled slightly, then turned around and went back to the door of the Yangxin Palace to wait. He didn't think so much of Li Yu now. Seeing Li Yu's listless appearance was not as interesting as listening to their Lord Ling's laughter.

*Perhaps Ruyi's method was not well chosen, or perhaps she should not have taken advantage of the fact that Yanwan, who looked young and similar to her, appeared together. The emperor did not recall her good qualities, but instead had a few complaints in his heart. It seemed that his youth was gone forever.

Anyway, after sending the jadeite cake, the emperor didn't say he would go to the Yikun Palace to take a look. He still looked lukewarm.

Instead, that night, Ling Yunche switched shifts with Jiang Fu and quietly went to the back door of Yiku Palace, intending to have a word with Concubine Xian to ease her boredom.

Rong Pei happened to pass by there and almost mistook him for a sneaky thief. She picked up the broom beside the back door and was about to hit the thief hard on the head.

Ling Yunche noticed it and immediately said, "It's me. Concubine Xian is my benefactor."

Rong Pei was skeptical, but she still held up the broom and used the moonlight to see Ling Yunche's face clearly. She recalled that this was the imperial guard she met in the morning, and he and Concubine Xian smiled at each other.

She then slowly put down the weapon in her hand and said unhappily, "Brother Guard, if you want to look for our queen, you should be more open and aboveboard. You are so cautious, you look like a thief."

Then he said, "Wait here for a moment, I will go report to Her Majesty Concubine Xian." Then he turned and left.

Soon, Rong Pei came over with Concubine Xian, who was walking briskly. Her high soles "clacked" on the bricks and stones of Yikun Palace, and Ling Yunche's heart twitched slightly, fearing that he would sprain his ankle again.

Ling Yunche said, "Empress Xian, please slow down."

Ruyi smiled slightly, then slowed down her pace, and walked towards Ling Yunche gracefully step by step. With every step she took, the hem of her skirt would bloom with the movement of her legs.

It was as if a trickling stream appeared before my eyes, and Ruyi was stepping on the lotus blossoming in the river with holy light. So beautiful, so dignified.

Ruyi stopped walking. The moonlight shone on her. Her eyebrows were soft and her face was covered with a soft yellow light. She smiled with a bit of sincerity. She nodded slightly to Ling Yunche and said, "Lord Ling."

Ling Yunche bowed respectfully, "Greetings to Her Majesty the Concubine Xian."

Several people were standing opposite each other. Ruyi looked at Rong Pei and introduced, "This is Lord Ling, Ling Yunche."

Then she turned to look at Ling Yunche, her long gaze fixed straight into his eyes, and said, "Ling Yunche, this is Rong Pei, the head maid of Yikun Palace."
