Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Jia Ling's Double Rebirth, Creates a Great Success

Almost an hour after Qin Li left, Ruyi saw that Qiuwen had almost finished cleaning, so she got up from the ground holding the vase.

She remembered that the Emperor had asked her to take care of Ling Yunche and Rong Pei's wedding, but she would be under house arrest starting tomorrow, so she could only take advantage of today to send Ling Yunche and Rong Pei something.

So she sent Sanbao to call Rong Pei over, so that she could give Rong Pei, who was about to get married, a lecture.

Rong Pei had just returned from the house outside the palace that the Empress Dowager had awarded her. It was a small courtyard with two entrances. Although it was not big, there were two vegetable plots in the courtyard where various seasonal vegetables could be grown.

This is what Rong Pei’s dream home looks like. If we ignore the fact that she has to live with Ling Yunche, Rong Pei would love living here.

She just went to the cleansing room and looked at Ling Yunche through the window. The half man was lying on the earthen kang and groaning. Rong Pei felt happy when she saw it.

Yikun Palace

Rong Pei followed Sanbao into the side hall. Qiuwen had just finished packing and Ruyi was sitting at the table, taking out a set of copper armor that she had hidden for a long time from her dressing table and putting it on.

Rong Pei recognized it. It was the one that Concubine Ji in the cold palace used to assassinate the empress dowager, and it was also given to her by Ling Yunche.

Rong Pei sneered and said that she came to give her a dowry, but she wore the armor given by her future husband. Concubine Xian's skill in annoying people is still as good as ever.

Rong Pei was already the head aunt of the empress dowager, so today she wore a dark purple palace dress with narrow sleeves and silver embroidery, and a red gold lotus hairpin awarded by the empress dowager on her head.

Compared with Ruyi, she looks more radiant.

There was undisguised disgust and jealousy in Ruyi's eyes. If it weren't for Rong Pei, Ling Yunche wouldn't have suffered so much.

Ruyi sat at the table with her back to him, her tone filled with a hint of resentment:

"Rong Pei, you are my old friend who lived in the cold palace with me, and you are also the person I once trusted the most. You know, if anyone in the harem betrayed me, my heart would not be so painful, but I didn't expect that the person who stabbed me so hard would be you. I wanted to give you a peaceful and down-to-earth life, but you actually took the initiative to frame Ling Yunche. You hurt him so badly."

Rong Pei almost wanted to vomit. She asked, "Lady Xian, what is a peaceful and down-to-earth life? Is it to be sent to the Ministry of Punishment at any time, or to have your monthly salary deducted and be punished by the emperor?"

"Also, was it me who harmed Ling Yunche? It was you who didn't avoid suspicion, it was he who was useless, and it was you who insisted on dragging me down to hell as well. Since you were the first to be merciful, why should I show mercy to you?"

Ruyi turned around and fixed her resentful eyes on Rong Pei.

"But Ling Yunche is your husband now after all. It's not easy for him. You have to be nice to him and cherish him."

Rong Pei reached out to adjust the hairpin on her head, and raised her head high behind Ruyi:

"Lady Xian, Ling Yunche will be the son-in-law of our Rong family from now on. Whether he lives a good life or not has nothing to do with you. Please stop thinking about him."

Ruyi felt like she had something stuck in her throat. How could it have nothing to do with her? She and Ling Yunche were close friends whose love went beyond that of a man and a woman.

But she was sure that Rong Pei would not understand such noble feelings, so she changed the subject:

"Rong Pei, don't think that there is something so dirty between me and Ling Yunche. It was the Emperor who asked me to arrange your marriage. I will be resting in Yikun Palace tomorrow, so I asked you to come here today to give me your dowry."

Under Rong Pei's inquiring gaze, Ruyi lifted the layers of curtains, walked to the bed that Qiuwen had just made, and brought out a quilt that had been washed to a light yellow color.

She stroked the softness in her hand and said reluctantly:

"Rong Pei, this quilt was personally given to me by the Emperor when I entered the palace. Don't underestimate it. It is a pure hand-woven brocade quilt, the most luxurious. Now I give it to you and Ling Yunche, and I wish you... a happy and harmonious life."

Rong Pei took it and remembered that Concubine Xian liked to wrap herself in this quilt and lie on the bed to eat sour apricots secretly.

If Ling Yunche covered himself with this quilt, wouldn't that be equivalent to sleeping in the same bed with Ruyi?

What a great quilt. I have covered myself with the quilt that you have covered before, so does that mean we are sleeping together?

Concubine Xian wanted to participate in her and Ling Yunche's wedding night, so she would help this couple and accept the quilt.

Rong Pei thought that she would use this quilt to torture Ling Yunche.

Seeing Rong Pei's sensible appearance, Ruyi felt a little relieved that Rong Pei was not hopeless.

She looked at the sky and asked Rong Pei to go back quickly. Before leaving, she also told Rong Pei to come back to Yikun Palace more often to serve in the future and not just stay at the Queen Mother's place.

After Rong Pei left, Ruyi took action again.

She knew that Ling Yunche would have a hard time under Rong Pei in the future, so she planned to give Ling Yunche some personal items to give him some confidence.

Just consider it as a dowry for Ling Yunche to become his son-in-law.

But all of Ruyi's valuables were taken away by Qin Li, so she was really tight on money. Fortunately, she remembered that she still had some things saved up, so she could dig out two items this time.

She called Sanbao and asked him to take a hoe and follow her to the backyard.

The sunset covered the sky, shrouding the Yikun Palace in orange light. In an empty space in the backyard that had long been deserted and overgrown with weeds, Sanbao was digging the dry soil with a hoe.

Ruyi stood aside, hunched over, trying hard to recall the place where the gold, silver and jewelry were buried.

She thought that those were used to pray for Jingsi. Now Jingsi was not with her, so they were sent to Xiefang Palace. She needed them urgently, so it should be okay to dig out one or two pieces.

God helps those who work hard. After digging more than a dozen small mounds, the two finally found the gold and silver pit.

Ruyi picked for a long time in the pit and found two Ruyi, one made of yellow jade and the other of white jade.

Sanbao was sweating profusely while digging and asked curiously, "Master, we can either give a pair of identical ones or just one, why do you give two different-looking ones?"

Ruyi refused to tell Sanbao. This was her last act of stubbornness. She thought Rong Pei was not worthy of Ling Yunche. She wanted to use Ruyi to tell the two of them that they were not a perfect couple.

In addition, Ruyi, Ruyi, every time Ling Yunche sees these two swords, he will think of himself. What a wonderful thought.

Ruyi asked Sanbao to quickly fill up Jingsi's lucky pit. After all, Jingsi was her daughter, so she was only willing to use a little bit of the blessings in it to add to Ling Yunche's dowry. This was her motherly heart.

Ruyi quietly told Sanbao, "Sanbao, go find Ling Yunche and give Ruyi to him. Tell him that I will be grounding him soon. Tell him to be strong and don't forget me."

Sanbao felt a little uncomfortable.

Ling Yunche had never served his master, but he was able to get two jade ruyi. He had followed his master for so many years, but had never received any reward.

And Rong Pei, the only wedding gift she received was a quilt that had been used for nearly twenty years.

Why!

Sanbao did not go to the cleansing room to find Ling Yunche, but went to the Cining Palace to find Rong Pei and gave her the two jade ruyi.

Sanbao thought that since Rong Pei and Ling Yunche were husband and wife and were of one mind, giving it to Rong Pei would be the same as giving it to Ling Yunche.

Later, Rong Pei really lived up to the Three Treasures. The two jade ruyis played a huge role...
