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

*After the Seventh Prince passed away, the Queen was so sad and sick that she couldn't get out of bed. Fortunately, Jingse was always by her side and the Emperor often came to visit her. This made Langya feel a little better and she was able to get up and walk in the yard.

Changchun Palace was often quiet, except for the sound of the Seventh Prince reading. Although he was young and not in good health, he had a very bright mind and could draw inferences from one instance.

Whenever people in Changchun Palace felt the intelligence of the Seventh Prince, they felt uncomfortable. How could such a smart prince, who was of a legitimate family, have such bad luck and become so sickly and weak?

Now the sound of reading also faded away, and Changchun Palace fell into silence for a long time. In the past few days, there was still Langya's faint, suppressed crying, but now there was only a dead atmosphere.

Su Lian and Jing Se supported the queen, and Lang Ya walked slowly to the gate of Changchun Palace, feeling cold all over.

It is October now and winter has not yet arrived, but Langya always feels the coldness seeping through the bones, making her feel uncomfortable.

A few days later, the Queen resumed her daily greetings.

She always seemed to be urged by something, and there was always a sense of anxiety in her. She was always afraid, always worried, and unwilling to rest.

Fucha Langya didn't know what was wrong with her, why she was emitting exhaustion from the bottom of her soul, but she still couldn't help but fulfill her duties as the queen.

Such a heavy burden added more worries to her already haggard heart.

Fortunately, Jingse is already married, and her husband treats her with respect. Langya no longer has to worry about Jingse's happiness. She also looks forward to the day when her daughter can have a child so that she can hold him or her.

One day, Rong Pei specially sent someone to inquire whether Princess Hejing of the Gulun clan would enter the palace today. After receiving a negative answer, Rong Pei breathed a sigh of relief, took the things that Concubine Xian had ordered, and took several palace maids with her, and hurried to Changchun Palace.

At this time, Su Lian was helping Lang Ya walk. It was only mid-October, but Lang Ya had already put on a thin cloak to block the wind, which showed how bad her condition was.

Upon hearing that Concubine Xian had sent someone, Langya sat back in the hall of Changchun Palace. She hated Ruyi, so she didn't want to lose her dignity as a queen in front of her servants.

Langya was brought up as a legitimate daughter by her mistress since she was young, but Hongli and Qingying played a trick on her on the day of choosing the wife, which made Langya live in the shadow of having her position as wife and queen taken away for a long time.

The emperor often indulges Ruyi's unruly behavior. Ruyi herself is aware of the emperor's preferences and repeatedly commits crimes against him.

This kind of secret show-off made the peaceful and magnanimous Langya fall into a cycle of suspicion.

As soon as she met Ruyi, she always showed her specialness, from the way she dressed, the way she spoke, the way she behaved, everything she could think of, she wanted to show that she was the special person in the emperor's heart.

Langya could not escape this curse. When she was healthy, she could comfort herself that it was just a provocation from the concubines.

But she was weak, her legitimate son was gone, and she didn't have much time left, while Ruyi was still healthy, and the emperor was obsessed with her.

If she dies, who will be the next queen?

Will the emperor make Ruyi the queen?

How could she tolerate the woman she had hated for years, inheriting her name, sitting in the position that should have been hers, and having the health that she didn't have.

The more Langya's emotions were involved with Ruyi, the more energy she consumed, and the more she suffered from repeated entanglements and pain.

In fact, what scared her the most was the emperor's attitude. Langya was afraid to ask the emperor about his plans. She didn't want to admit that she was a dying person, nor did she want to hear the emperor say who the next queen would be.

No matter who it is, it won’t be Langya.

What's there to know?

As soon as Rong Pei came in, she saw the Queen sitting in the middle of the hall, Su Lian was serving her on one side, and Zhao Yita was on the other side. The swelling on his face had subsided. After being punished by the Emperor, the Queen's mind was completely focused on feeling sad for Yongcong, and she only asked Su Lian to go to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine for him.

Rong Pei felt that the queen's complexion had not changed, and she did not look pale. Unlike what others said, her face was as pale as gold paper and it looked like she didn't have much time left.

The Queen ignored Rong Pei's grumbling and said immediately, "Tell me, what did Concubine Xian ask you to do?"

Rong Pei encouraged herself in her heart. She said with a stiff upper lip, "I heard that the Empress was sad, so I came here to bring nourishing soup to Empress Xian."

The Queen was puzzled. The last time Ruyi showed her courtesy to the Emperor was when the Emperor was struggling to choose which princess to marry into the Korchin alliance. At that time, Ruyi received the reward from the Queen Mother and sent it to Langya, saying that it was a dowry for Jingse's marriage.

The disgusting things that happened in the past are still fresh in my mind, and this person is here again today.

However, this time Ruyi learned her lesson and did not come herself, but sent someone instead.

Su Lian asked, "What kind of tonic soup does Changchun Palace have? Why does Concubine Xian send it? I wonder what kind of soup Concubine Xian sent is so precious?"

Rong Pei hesitated. She was alone in the Changchun Palace, helpless and a little scared. But remembering Concubine Xian's instructions, she had to finish her words and leave quickly.

"Her Majesty, what I brought you is pheasant baby soup boiled with red ginseng." Rong Pei made up her mind and thought, since she was going to offend someone anyway, she might as well be tough. Concubine Xian and the empress were not on good terms to begin with, so it was common sense for them to kick someone when they were down. If they fell out, the other party would be unable to do anything to them for a while.

Pheasant cub.

As soon as the Queen lost her child, Ruyi sent someone to bring her pheasant baby soup, which was like stabbing her wound with a knife.

The queen took a deep breath, and she felt her heart beating like a drum. There was a huge rage in her heart, filling her mind and heart. Such a huge anger pressed down on her that she could not hear the sounds around her.

Su Lian's expression immediately changed, and she pointed at Rong Pei and said, "Get out! Get out!"

Zhao Yitai picked up the whisk and came over to hit someone. The little palace maid who was holding the soup was so scared that she quickly put the soup on the table next to her. Without waiting for Rong Pei, the little palace maids left in a hurry.

Rong Pei started running, and Zhao Yita followed her closely. He was finally able to vent the anger that he had been holding back for the past two days.

"Your Majesty, please don't fall into Concubine Xian's trap. She is jealous of you and deliberately wants to use these despicable means to irritate you." Su Lian hurried forward to comfort the queen.

She only saw her master, with lifeless eyes, sitting in the chair in a daze. She didn't know when her face was covered with tears, and she herself didn't know.

Su Lian frowned, took out a handkerchief with concern, carefully touched the queen's face, and wiped away her tears.

The Queen remained expressionless, and she said, "Let her drink it."

"What?" The voice was too weak and Su Lian couldn't hear it clearly.

"Let her drink it herself!" the queen frowned and said angrily.

Several palace maids and eunuchs came out from behind, holding the tonic soup, and Su Lian led the people out.
