The news that Ruyan Er had been released from the cold palace quickly spread throughout the Forbidden City.

Although the concubines had different reactions, they didn't take her seriously after all. Anyway, the emperor had already issued an order. Ruyan's role this time was to mass-produce Ruyi cloud-patterned boots. If Ruyan wanted to cause trouble for the palaces, she could just use her best skills. Anyway, Ruyan enjoyed the torture very much.

However, when Ruyan returned to the side hall of the Yanx Palace, she felt sad in her heart. Her eyes felt sore and she wanted to cry, but she was afraid that Rong Pei would laugh at her after seeing her.

At this moment, Ruyan was dressed in mourning, having taken off all her luxury. She wanted to mourn for Ling Yunche's lost youth.

"Squeak..."

Rong Pei walked in, and when she saw Ruyan's attire, she frowned deeply, "My Lord, there is no funeral in the palace right now, why are you dressed like this?"

Who do you want to wear mourning clothes for?

Now everyone in the palace knows that Ruyan’s pregnancy was fake!

"What's wrong with me?"

Ruyan raised her long and thin eyebrows, shook them three times, and pouted her lips in an ugly way. Although her face was indifferent, her eyes seemed to be disdainful but also contained deep jealousy.

Ling Yunche hasn't even benefited from her, so why does Rong Pei have such a good life?

Rong Pei curled her lips, but at this moment she clearly understood how ugly Ruyan's heart was!

"My own clothes, I can wear whatever I want, it has nothing to do with a slave like you!"

Ruyan rubbed her armored hands, stroked her face and turned it up. She raised her chin inadvertently and was extremely sarcastic towards Rong Pei. She just liked Rong Pei, so what?

Now she was released from the cold palace and promoted to a concubine. This was the grace of the empress dowager. Even the emperor had to respect the empress dowager's opinion. Now that she had the empress dowager's support, who would she be afraid of even if she ran around in the harem?

"Snapped!"

Rong Pei really couldn't stand Ruyan's smug look anymore, so she went straight up and slapped Ruyan hard.

Ruyan covered her swollen cheek in disbelief and questioned Rong Pei in a hoarse voice, "You dare to hit me?"

"I'll beat you if I want. Do I have to choose a day?"

Rong Pei sneered, "Even if you make trouble in front of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, I will still beat you. Anyway, for you, there has never been any concept of superiority and inferiority, you only bully the weak and fear the strong! I just said that there is no funeral in the palace now, so who are you wearing mourning clothes for? Could it be that you are dissatisfied with the Empress Dowager's marriage between me and Ling Yunche? Then I can go to the Empress Dowager right now and defend you!"

Ruyan pouted in dissatisfaction, "Justice is in the heart. There is no need to express whether you are happy or not by what clothes you wear. Even if you tell me those contrived plots, I will not do them, Rong Pei, don't you agree?"

Rong Pei knew that Ruyan always liked to do some inappropriate things to show off her uniqueness and difference from others.

"Forget it. I don't want to argue with you any more. Now you should pay your respects to the master of the first palace!"

After Rong Pei's reminder, Ruyan still pretended not to understand. She didn't want to go. What she didn't expect was that after only a few days in the cold palace, there were actually a few new people in this palace.

For example, the previous Wang Fuzhi became Yong Changzai.

Wei Yanwan, who had let Ling Yunche down, also became Ling's noble lady.

And that Yihuan also became Concubine Shu.

Except for Wang Fuzhi who was in the same permanent position as her, the other two were actually a head taller than her.

On the other hand, A'ruo, who ran into the pillar so decisively that day, did not die. It turned out that she was just pretending.

But for her, the best thing is that Li Yu returns to serve the emperor. It seems that the emperor also has feelings for Li Yu. After all, Li Yu has been serving the emperor since he was a child. In terms of seniority, he is older than Wang Qin.

"I'm sleepy. I'll take a nap. I won't go!"

Ruyan just pretended to be stupid.

Rong Pei sneered, "Even if you don't go to pay respects to the Queen, you still have to go to the Queen's morning and evening visits. The time is almost up, you should change your clothes and set off to Changchun Palace!"

Even though Ruyan didn't want to pay attention, she still hesitated for a long time. Although Rong Pei was guarding her and watching her change out of all her mourning clothes, she still put on what she thought was the most beautiful clothes and went out.

When everyone saw Ruyan appear again in Changchun Palace, they saw Xian Changzai, who was wearing a pure dark brown dress and a black velvet flower on her head.

Fu Cha Langya just wondered why she had to endure such harsh torture, "Xian Changzai, is there something missing in your palace? So you dressed like this to go out today?"

It's really too ugly!

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Yihuan's indifferent eyes locked on Ruyan, "Xian Changzai is trying to deliberately highlight her own image of being as elegant as a chrysanthemum. However, the maids in the concubines' palace are all dressed better than her. I think this Xian Changzai must be jealous and dissatisfied with the queen!"

Ruyan felt the deep hostility from Yihuan. She blinked her innocent eyes, not understanding why Yihuan was targeting her for no reason. So Ruyan said calmly, "Sister, do you have any misunderstandings about me?"

Yihuan comes from a prominent family and seems to be a non-competitive person, so I have to be more attentive and warm her up.

Unexpectedly, Yi Huan did not appreciate it at all. "Please be careful with your words, Xian Chang Zai. I am also a noble, and you are just a Chang Zai."

Ruyan didn't understand. She tried to blink her eyes, trying to save something. "I don't quite understand. It's just a one-grade difference. Why do we need to distinguish between sisters so clearly? Besides, fairness is in people's hearts."

Yi Huan didn't want to be fooled by Ru Yan so easily. "I have heard that when this Xian Chang was a woman of Xian Guan, she wore Yao Huang Mudan's clothes and ran to the Empress to show off. At that time, she also said that the master of the harem lies in the heart of the people."

Ruyan's indifferent eyes showed a few more smiles. She did say this. Yihuan was truly a talented woman and she really understood her feelings.

It seems that she could do a good job of winning them over.

Fu Cha Langya's eyes darkened. This kind of presumptuous words had not only been said to her by Concubine Xian, but also to the emperor. However, although they had all made trouble for the sake of the topic, in the end, it was just a trivial matter for Ruyan.

Who knew that Ruyan didn't understand Yihuan at all. She had always been sharp-tongued and would never speak so lightly. If she mentioned it, there must be some deep meaning behind it.

Yihuan looked at Ruyan with disdain, "If Concubine Xian really had a heart, then why would she fight over the legitimate status? Why fight over the position? She is clearly a concubine, but she always flaunts herself as the emperor's legal wife and is rude to the empress everywhere."
