Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Concubine Rong had a miscarriage, and Sang Ronghua was accused of being the murderer. The news spread throughout the Daming Palace, and everyone was talking about it.

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Concubine Rong was framing the woman, so within half an hour, word spread that Concubine Rong had been demoted to a concubine, and everyone felt that the punishment was too light.

But at the same time, Sang Ronghua was actually reprimanded in person by Emperor Chongzhao and demoted to a noble lady!

Why is this?!

“The Emperor said that the Imperial Concubine fell ill yesterday, and he made it clear: the concubines don’t need to visit her, and he will summon her if there is anything.

"The best sisters of the Imperial Concubine in the palace are, of course, Concubine Rong and Geng Ronghua.

"Not to mention that Concubine Rong was courting death, even Geng Ronghua had moved out and stayed in Cheng Huan Palace, so why did she run to Yin Yu Palace?

"The Emperor said that she just had evil intentions, so he demoted her to a lower level and asked her to reflect on herself behind closed doors."

Aunt Mu whispered to Li Xuanyi what was happening outside.

Li Xuanyi raised the corner of his mouth in disdain but said nothing.

Although Aunt Mu was used to the fact that her master was not talkative, she still had to find out his true intentions on such an important matter.

"Xuan Yi, you seem to disagree?"

Li Xuanyi glanced at her, paused for a moment, and then slowly said, "The emperor still likes Sang Ronghua in his heart.

"Yesterday, Changying told everyone not to disturb the imperial concubine's rest.

"So if the emperor is really angry, the four words he would give her should be 'disobeying the emperor'.

"Now it's just 'evil intentions', which means that the emperor believes in his heart that Sang is just in love with the emperor and wants to win his favor.

"She is now under house arrest to protect her from being criticized by others."

Aunt Mu was shocked: "Your Highness can think of this, it is beyond my expectation."

Ha ha.

Li Xuanyi turned his head and sneered: "Your Majesty gave the order so quickly, which means he didn't ask any questions in detail. He directly judged that it was Concubine Rong who lost the child and even framed her.

“But what is the actual situation?

"What if Sang Ronghua is really not innocent?"

Aunt Mu's expression became solemn. After a while, she sighed softly, "Xuan Yi always sees human nature as extremely evil..."

"Human nature is inherently selfish and extremely hateful." Li Xuanyi's eyes were cold, "For example, the imperial concubine had a high fever yesterday.

"I only told Song, Deng, Yang and Zhou not to cause any trouble for the time being and to wait for my news. They all listened and did not move.

“But if it weren’t for the Imperial Concubine, Zhou wouldn’t have survived, and Yang wouldn’t have the peaceful life she has today.

"What was the result? After hearing my words 'It's alright, Concubine', they didn't even say a word to Yinyu Palace."

Aunt Mu fell silent, and also felt a little cold.

"Song and Deng lived together with Sang family back then, and they were very close sisters!

"Now that Sang has been reprimanded and confined, aunt, I bet with you that these two people also dare not even say a word over there!"

Li Xuanyi looked indifferent.

After a while, Aunt Mu Heruan said, "It's just that Sang Ronghua is under house arrest, something happened in Concubine De's family, and the Queen and the Imperial Concubine are ill. It's possible that the Emperor will summon Xuanyi to accompany him..."

Li Xuanyi hummed, turned around and took a book to read: "Aunt, please help me pick out some clothes and jewelry that are in line with the etiquette and rules. Get ready."

"Xuanyi, should you wear something brighter?" Aunt Mu suggested.

Li Xuanyi didn't take her eyes off the book: "No bright colors, no frills, just rules."

Therefore, her mistress did not intend to take advantage of the opportunity to win favor at this time. She just wanted to be indistinguishable from the crowd, or even better, not be favored.

Aunt Mu felt relieved and quietly retreated.

"The first rafter to stick out will rot first. We have to wait until the queen and the imperial concubine decide the winner before we compete for favor..."

Li Xuanyi couldn't help it in the end, and murmured softly, speaking out what was in her heart.

On the branch outside the window, a yellow oriole turned its head and combed the feathers on its wings.

Yinyu Palace.

Wang Xifeng, who had "just" woken up, burst into tears sadly and turned her head inside, refusing to look at Emperor Chongzhao who was sitting beside her bed.

"This kind of fate between children is destined by heaven." Emperor Chongzhao said solemnly, also with his head lowered.

Wang Xifeng cried weakly, "Who doesn't know that she is making trouble? Did I not know, or did Aunt Duan not know, or did Geng Ronghua not know?

"Why should we tolerate her? Isn't it just for this child?

“If she could come into the palace, maybe if we could invite the imperial physician in time, the child could be saved!

"Why does Your Majesty have to get angry with her at this time?!

"Now, the child is gone, her hope is gone, isn't this the end of her life?

"Besides, I heard from the imperial physician that I am sick from fatigue, so no one should come to visit me.

"Does Sang Xian have to come at this time? What does she mean?!

"I used to think she was born into a military family, was well-versed in rules, and was a straightforward person. Now it seems that I was blind!

"She should never come to my Yinyu Palace again!

"Don't ever think about it again!"

Emperor Chongzhao looked at her crying face, sighed with a headache, and said softly: "Don't vent your anger on me..."

"I am just venting my anger on others! I am just venting my anger on others! So what? Your Majesty, do you want me to apologize to Sang Xian? Do you want me to be demoted to a noble lady? Or a talented lady? A commoner? A cold palace? A death sentence?!"

Wang Xifeng was so angry that she burst into tears.

Emperor Chongzhao rubbed his forehead helplessly.

Sang Ronghua disobeyed and ran to Yinyu Palace. Although this was just a bid for favor, it violated Wang Xifeng's big taboo.

She is happy to give gifts to others, but if she doesn't give them to you, you can't snatch them away!

"Come here, Sang has been demoted to a talent, fined for one year's salary, and confined to reflect on her actions. She cannot leave without the emperor's order.

"——Is this okay?" Emperor Chongzhao's voice became softer and he reached out to hold Wang Xifeng's arm and shook it gently.

Wang Xifeng turned over suddenly, her eyes red and her face full of tears, and she shouted, "No!

"I want Sang Xian to set up a quiet room to copy scriptures and pray for the little prince who has no fate in the mortal world. She is not allowed to come out for a year!

"And Concubine Rong, she is just fooling around, and she is indeed plotting against me, but that is our sister's business, what qualifications do others have to comment or interfere!?

"Your Majesty, I am willing to give up being a concubine in exchange for Sister Mei's life—

"Please allow the emperor to allow her to shave her head and become a nun, to become a nun on my behalf, and to take Mei Shu to the Muni Temple to pray for the country!"

The gentle smile on Emperor Chongzhao's face gradually disappeared: "My Lady, I never said I would sentence Mei Ruoqin to death."

"She has already lost her family, her children, and now she has lost Shengen and her sisters..."

Wang Xifeng said miserably, "Your Majesty, if you don't give her something to think about, how many days do you think she can live?"

Emperor Chongzhao frowned and said, “Muni Temple is a folk temple for women, it is not appropriate.

"Go to the Guanyin Temple in Zhongnan Mountain..."

“I am willing to pay for the renovation of the Muni Temple and turn it into a semi-royal temple!

"Guanyin Temple is too far away... I am worried that Sister Mei might get into an accident while she is there..."

Wang Xifeng's eyes were filled with tears. She slowly reached out and hooked the sleeve of Emperor Chongzhao.
