The terrifying voice of Empress Xian behind him was getting louder and louder. Yongqi ran and cried. He was so scared. The voice of Empress Xian just now did not come from her lips. Moreover, the hole on her neck, such a dark and deep hole, was quietly resting on Empress Xian's white neck.

Xian'eniang spoke through this terrible hole in her throat.

She is a monster!

Yongqi ran desperately, and from the peripheral vision he could almost see Xian'e Niang's long armor, which was flashing with sharp light, just like the knife in the hands of a chef in the imperial kitchen.

She was about to touch Yongqi.

"The sky is great and the earth is great, there is a boy who cries at night in my house~" Who was singing softly in his ear.

The purple color that Yongqi saw quickly dissipated, and Xian'er Niang also disappeared without a trace. All around was white.

Then there was another warm voice, also singing along with the previous line, "Heaven and earth, there is a crying boy in my house~"

The dream quickly gathered into a colorful bubble, and then with a "pop" sound, it was dispersed by the soft singing of the two ladies beside him.

Yongqi opened his eyes and saw Empress Ling teaching Empress Mei to sing a song. Empress Ling sang again, "The gentleman who passed by recited three times~ Ah, Yongqi is awake."

Yan Wan looked at Yong Qi and smiled gently. She had learned Kunqu Opera in her previous life, so singing nursery rhymes in this life was effortless. In the past, she could only hear her mother singing these nursery rhymes to her younger brother, but she would never sing them to her.

She begged her mother, but her mother said, "You spendthrift girl, what's so nice about that? Go away."

Bai Ruiji turned around in surprise, took Yongqi's hand, and said, "Yongqi is awake, Queen Mei is learning to sing nursery rhymes with your Queen Ling, how is it, do you like it?"

Yongqi's voice was hoarse. He shook Bai Ruiji's hand and said, "Madam Mei, Yongqi didn't hear clearly. Can you sing it again with Madam Ling?"

Bai Ruiji nodded and said, "Okay."

Yan Wan also smiled and coaxed, and then hummed softly. The two of them coaxed softly together, making Yong Qi feel extremely relieved.

Having been frightened suddenly, Yongqi relaxed all of a sudden. At first he was lying on the bed listening with a smile on his face, but suddenly his mouth fell flat, he immediately felt aggrieved, and quietly shed tears hiding under the quilt.

"Yongqi is not afraid. The scary people have been driven away by Empress Mei and Empress Ling." Bai Ruiji gently wiped Yongqi's tears with a silk cloth.

Yongqi hugged her arms and cried even harder.

*Yikun Palace

In order to protect Concubine Xian's reputation, Jinzhong specially sent someone to send Concubine Xian back to the palace first, and then escorted Rong Pei to the Ministry of Punishment to learn the rules.

In the main hall of Yikun Palace, Ruyi was hesitating about how to deal with this matter.

Rong Pei didn't want her to worry, so she took the initiative to step forward and said, "My Lady Concubine Xian, please let me go. No matter how rampant Concubine Ling is, she won't really do anything to me. On the contrary, if I don't go, Concubine Ling will take the opportunity to cause trouble."

Ruyi sighed softly, a hint of sadness spread between her brows, and a layer of dark clouds covered her white and plump cheeks. She nodded softly, closed her eyes again, and said in great pain,

"Rong Pei, I know I have wronged you."

"Don't worry, I will get everything back for you." Ruyi said sincerely with firm eyes.

Jinzhong's apprentice Gao Feng was standing nearby waiting. He felt that these two really didn't treat him as an outsider. How could they say such things in front of other people?

He was thinking about the instructions that Eunuch Jinzhong had just given him, asking him to hand the person over to Xiao Dezi as soon as he arrived at the Ministry of Punishment.

Gao Feng saw that Concubine Xian wanted to talk to Rong Pei for a while, and was afraid that his master would suddenly come to him for something, so he urged, "Concubine Xian, Aunt Rong Pei, you two should wait until this time tomorrow to chat. I have been ordered to come here, and I really can't delay."

Rong Pei just asked to accept the punishment. Although he was not very willing to do so, he could not let his master be embarrassed. He could only look back every few steps and follow Gao Feng away.

Ruyi just sat on the chair, with a faint smile on her face, watching Rong Pei go away.

*The next day, Rong Pei finally survived the beatings from the two maids from the Ministry of Punishment. She dragged her aching body towards the direction of the Yikun Palace.

Why didn't anyone come to pick her up? Concubine Xian must be too busy and couldn't spare any time.

Since the servants in Yikun Palace were replaced, Lingzhi and Yunzhi were transferred out of Yikun Palace, and the chief eunuch was replaced by an unfamiliar Ersu. Although the people in this palace are diligent, none of them is trustworthy.

So Concubine Xian had to do everything herself, which was really hard.

She has to assist Concubine Xian well, after all, she is the only one who belongs to Concubine Xian.

Rong Pei rubbed her aching waist and cursed inwardly.

Those two damn old maids were wearing an extremely ugly blue patterned dress, and they still had the nerve to say that she didn't look good in it.

Moreover, Rong Pei had said that she was Concubine Xian's person, and if she was sensible and treated her well, Concubine Xian would reward her handsomely. When the two maids heard this, they laughed strangely and whipped her hard.

But Rong Pei was tied up with ropes and couldn't move. She cursed loudly, and the two maids stuffed a rag into her mouth.

She was really pissed. How dare these two old guys treat her like this?

But don't fall into her hands, otherwise she will give them a severe lesson.

Rong Pei waved the sword a few times in the air and heard the sound of wind breaking through the air. Then the depression in her heart dissipated a little.

*Yonghe Palace

Su Lujun brought some medicine to relieve the shock, and she happened to see Yanwan inside. Her smile widened a little, and she said, "I left quickly yesterday, and I didn't know that Yongqi had encountered such a big thing. It's really heartbreaking."

Bai Ruiji gently rubbed her head. She got angry when she mentioned that incident. This child was actually frightened by Concubine Xian. She said, "I am also very scared. If I didn't get close and Yongqi fell to the ground again, what would I do?"

Imperial Concubine Rao Chun was Ruyi's good friend, and she could not say anything to excuse her.

Su Lujun glanced at Yanwan. Yanwan didn't have any special reaction to her coming. She just said hello when she entered the door, and then started reading a book.

What kind of book is this? It's so good.

Su Lujun didn't explain anything for Ruyi. She also knew that Ruyi and Yanwan didn't seem to get along well. If she suddenly mentioned Ruyi's good points, Yanwan might have a grudge against her.

Although the two of them were not familiar with each other, Su Lujun did not want this unfamiliarity to worsen.

Bai Ruiji was still thinking about the thrilling incident. She asked Su Lujun, "Sister Concubine Chun, if Yongzhang suddenly became like this, you would be scared."

Su Lujun nodded, and she no longer had the slightest desire to speak for Ruyi. If Yongzhang had almost fallen on his head, she would definitely fight to the death with the person who hurt Yongzhang.
