"Listen to me, if there is a woman who is willing to share the good and bad times with you and only leaves when she has to, and you two are running towards each other and giving your true heart to each other, then losing such a beloved person is worth your pain, after all, she truly loves you, and it is not from her heart. On the contrary, if such a woman covets and uses you, and despises your background and future, if she leaves, if it were me, I would be too happy, after all, she never loved you in the first place."

If her brother Hongli was so sincere to her, she would be so happy.

Ruyi said this not only to Ling Yunche but also to herself. Thinking back, Brother Hongli, even though she knew that she had suffered a great injustice, still had no choice but to make her suffer. In order to save everyone's dignity, he still sent her to the cold palace.

It was at that moment that Ruyi realized that the "don't worry" that the emperor always said would also be greatly discounted. The love she had for Brother Hongli in her heart was no less than the love Ling Yunche had for that cruel woman. But although she was in great pain, she still accepted it all frankly, and she had to live decently in the cold palace. After all, in her eyes, as long as the emperor's love for her still existed, she would be content. She never wanted to fight for power and profit, but only wanted to fulfill Brother Hongli's unique and favored wife. Is it possible that no one would fulfill her little wish? They are all selfish ghosts! In order to get to the top, they all climbed up by any means. Only she was sincere and cared about Brother Hongli. Although she understood Brother Hongli's dilemma, she could not see Brother Hongli clearly and could not feel his wholehearted love for her.

Ruyi only wanted to show everyone in the harem that she could live a different life in the cold palace on her own.

"Ling Yunche, just listen to my advice and forget about her. With your conditions, you will definitely be able to find a better woman from a decent family. Only by leaving the wrong person can you meet the right person. Only by leaving an unhappy love can you meet a better love."

Ruyi's face was gloomy, and she said something that made her feel guilty. In fact, she wanted to say, could she be worse than the woman in Ling Yunche's heart? But she couldn't say it out loud, because she was afraid that if she caused Ling Yunche's misunderstanding, she would not be able to make Ling Yunche sad again.

"Well, since she has found someone else, you can do the same. How about I be your support after I get out? Imperial guard, what do you think?"

When Ling Yunche heard the words "imperial guard", his eyes lit up immediately. Who wouldn't want to be an imperial guard? He was a close minister to the emperor, and only the sons of nobles from the upper three banners could get a job as an imperial guard. He was just a poor son from the lower five banners, so how could he compare with the upper three banners?

but……

Ling Yunche's eyes, hidden in the darkness, were shining brightly.

He was moved.

If this old woman could really help him succeed, then it would be worth it for him to rack his brains and say sweet words to make her happy.

"I appreciate your kindness, but I am only from the lower five banners. How can I compare with the nobles from the upper three banners? You'd better stop making fun of me!"

Controlling a woman like Ruyi is one of his best skills.

He had to act like he wanted something but was reluctant so that she would be worried.

After all, it wasn't him who said he wanted it, but Ruyi insisted on giving it to him. How can you blame him for being greedy?

When Ruyi saw that Ling Yunche was interested, she pursed her lips and smiled, feeling happy.

The kind of woman Ling Yunche needs is indeed a capable one like her.

"Ling Yunche~~~ Actually, you don't have to belittle yourself. I think you can do it, and you will definitely do it. I still remember the mushrooms on the wall, and I knew you were a sweetheart at first sight. The emperor and I have a childhood sweetheart relationship, which is incomparable to any other woman in the harem. Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has been constrained by the previous dynasty. He had no choice but to banish me to the cold palace. He did this to protect me and prevent me from getting hurt. After all, I have been sent to the cold palace, and those women will not think I am a threat to them."

Ling Yunche listened to Ruyi's bragging in a daze, and he actually wanted to interrupt her.

The emperor is the Son of Heaven and the most noble man in the world. He is the envy of all men. Yet he can be easily restrained by others and cannot even protect a woman he likes.

As soon as he heard it, he felt it was bullshit.

But Ling Yunche had just lost a money tree, and he didn't want to lose another one.

Ling Yunche quickly shut up and put aside his doubts. A smile of joy and admiration appeared on his face: "You are Cong Hui!"

When Ruyi heard the man she was interested in praising her, her face instantly turned red, she lowered her head shyly, and said hesitantly: "Hate, what are you talking about! I'm just telling the truth."

Ling Yunche: “…” Old women are easy to coax.

Afterwards, he looked at Ruyi carefully through the narrow window with an interested and gleaming look. His sweet look made Ruyi's heart blossom.

After all, she hadn't been favored for many years. She was like a withered flower, desperately wanting moisture. She also had needs.

"You are so heartwarming in this autumn and winter season."

Ling Yunche smiled thoughtfully. He has always been a veteran in the love field. What he is best at is disguising himself and then seducing his prey.

Perhaps having such a concubine is not a bad thing for him.

After all, who are the people working in this palace? Or are they monsters that are neither human nor ghost? Aren’t they all trying to climb up?

If he could achieve his lofty ambitions one day, he would laugh at Huang Chao for being a coward!

Thinking about Ling Yunche, his heart was also filled with lofty ambitions, but he just had no one to help him before. Now that he has the opportunity, how could he miss it?

But he was not a brainless person who would not just believe Ruyi's one-sided statement. There were some things he still had to ask for clarification.

"But you have already been sent to the cold palace. I have never seen the emperor come to the cold palace to see you. Moreover, I have never seen any woman who has been sent to the cold palace leave."

While Ling Yunche was speaking, he also glanced casually towards the cold palace.

This sight frightened him so much that he laughed out loud.

My goodness, he hasn’t been here for just one day, but a lot of different kinds of mushrooms have grown in the cold palace!

Ruyi was not annoyed, but smiled knowingly: "Don't worry, when I leave the cold palace, I will definitely speak well of you in front of the emperor. Then you will know whether I am exaggerating or not."

Ruyi is so confident!

Ling Yunche did not argue with her about this topic anymore, but changed the subject: "So even though you are in the cold palace, you still grow so many mushrooms, just for the childhood friendship between you and the emperor?"

In fact, he was full of contempt in his heart: What's the fuss? Who would have thought that the token of love between the concubine in the harem and the emperor was just some colorful mushrooms?
