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

The winter sun is like a thin layer of feathers, gently brushing across your cheeks and bringing a touch of warmth.

In the Palace of Yanxi Xi, Hai Lan was sitting by the window, her white hands raised lightly, and the needle and thread in her hands were moving back and forth on the embroidery frame. Looking closely, she was embroidering a peony.

This was the gift she was going to give to the Queen on her birthday, a sachet with a picture of a butterfly playing with a peony.

Yonglian took good care of Yongqi and provided a lot of convenience for his and Yun'er's research. Even the Empress Dowager often rewarded Yun'er with things.

Hailan remembered them all.

Hai Lan looked towards the east side hall. She had turned it into Yongqi and Yun'er's secret research base. The two children stayed there all day long, and cheers could be heard from time to time.

Hai Lan listened with satisfaction in her heart, but the moment she turned her head, the emperor's words from last time lingered in her ears again.

The emperor said that Yongqi was not young anymore and it was time to marry him off to a girl from a prominent family.

The emperor believed that if the princes got married early, it would stabilize their minds. On the other hand, it would also allow the royal family to have more offspring.

From what Hai Lan heard from the Emperor, he wanted her to first select a few suitable women with the Queen, and then the Emperor would decide on the marriage.

She sighed and thought of Yongqi's wife in his previous life, Xilin Gioro. She was really a very good child.

But in her previous life, Yongqi only respected her but did not cherish her. After Yongqi's death, the child lived a lonely life.

Now Yongqi was born more than two years earlier than in his previous life, and Xilin Gioro is still young, so there is a chance that her fate will change.

If she had not married Yongqi, she would have lived a good life no matter where she was, thanks to Xilin Gioro's family background and noble character.

Hailan looked towards the side hall again.

In this life, Yongqi and Yun'er grew up together. It is normal for the prince to take in one or two princesses in advance, and Yun'er is undoubtedly the most suitable one.

But when she looked at the two children and saw that they did not do anything inappropriate, she could not figure out Yongqi's real thoughts for a moment, so she decided to call Yongqi to ask him.

So that afternoon, taking the opportunity of having a meal, Hai Lan asked Yongqi to stay.

Yun'er went to the East Side Hall alone. She said that it had reached the most critical moment and she wanted to put pressure on something.

Yongqi watched Tian Yun'er go away with a smile. In fact, all these researches were led by Yun'er and he was Yun'er's assistant.

He admired Yun'er, who was usually free and cheerful, but serious and meticulous in her work.

Because Yun'er studies steam power, he is now concentrating on studying the art of measuring equations, which is exactly what he likes.

Yongqi found many Western science books collected by Emperor Shengzu and placed them on the bookshelf in the side hall. The two of them took one book each and exchanged ideas after reading.

So in addition to working on models together, they often do math problems together and solve various complex equations.

After hearing about his daily life with Yun'er, his fourth brother always teased him, saying that he and Yun'er were two school idiots, and if they could become a couple and have a child, the child would also be a school idiot.

Yongqi thought of his fourth brother's words, and his face suddenly turned red.

Hai Lan looked at Yong Qi's worthless appearance and held her forehead helplessly.

Silly son.

She sat upright and asked seriously:

"Yongqi, a few days ago, your father mentioned your marriage. Mother wanted to ask for your opinion."

When Yongqi heard the word "marriage", his eyes lit up with a strange look, but suddenly dimmed. He said softly:

"Mother, I don't want to marry a wife now. I just got an assignment."

Hai Lan was displeased when she saw Yong Qi refused to tell the truth. She deliberately said:

"Marrying a wife won't hinder your work. Look at your elder and second brothers. They have wives to take care of the inner house, and they have made even better progress."

Hai Lan waited quietly for Yongqi to tell the truth. She knew that once Yongqi was nervous or lied, he would keep rubbing the ring.

Sure enough, his thumb and index finger moved.

Yongqi hesitated for a long time, his eyebrows twisted into a shape of "川", before he spoke:

"Mother, you can definitely tell that my son likes Yun'er."

Everything is under control, Hai Lan thought, Humph, silly son, you still want to fool your mother, I want you to tell the truth.

She pretended not to understand and asked:

"If you like Yun'er, then when you get married, you can let Yun'er be a princess in your house, and it has nothing to do with marrying a concubine, right?"

Yongqi raised his head, and the pain in his eyes made Hailan feel sorry for him, but she knew that they, mother and son, had to make things clear before they could work together to accomplish something.

Yongqi thought about how his mother had always understood and supported him over the years, and had also been caring towards Yuner.

Even though he and Yun'er played together every day, his mother never said that Yun'er seduced him and wanted to climb up the social ladder.

He believed that even if his mother knew his feelings, she would still stand with him.

So, Yongqi quickly calmed down and said sincerely:

"Mother, I like Yun'er. It's not just a whim, but I have admired every aspect of Yun'er since she was little. So I don't want to let her be a concubine and wrong her. I don't want to marry an innocent lady from a noble family and leave my wife alone, which would only make her more pitiful."

Yongqi was telling the truth. There are many kinds of couples in this world.

Some treat each other with respect, like the Emperor Father and the Empress Mother; some join forces, like the second brother and his wife; some are as sweet as honey, like the fourth brother and his wife.

What he wanted was to study and research with Yun'er, or even just stay together.

Hai Lan got the answer and no longer pretended to be clueless. She smiled and tapped Yong Qi's forehead:

"You little brat, why don't you just explain it to me earlier? Mom will definitely stand on your side!"

Yongqi resumed his initial smile. He moved closer to Hailan, took her arm and asked:

"Mother, what can you do?"

Hai Lan smiled but said nothing. After Yong Qi had been nagging her for a long time, she finally revealed it quietly.

Yongqi's eyes lit up: "Thank you, mother, for buying time for me. I will work with Yun'er to make contributions as soon as possible and seek the emperor's consent."

Hailan touched Yongqi's head and said with a smile:

"Yongqi, this road may be difficult, but as long as you are willing, mother is willing to do anything."

Yongqi nodded heavily, he believed in his mother!

Yongqi went to the side hall again. Hailan took down the purse on the frame, took a few gifts, and went to Changchun Palace.

Over the years, she, like her sisters in the harem, has unconditionally trusted the Queen Mother. She believes that the Queen Mother will definitely help her.

Five days later.

The Emperor summoned the Imperial Observatory. This year is the Gengchen year, the Chinese zodiac sign is the dragon. He was going to ask about the inspection of farmland and water conservancy projects near the capital on the day of the Dragon Raising its Head on February 2 this year.

But unexpectedly, the Imperial Observatory reported back that a few days ago, Concubine Yu asked the Imperial Observatory to analyze the Fifth Prince's Ziwei Plate in order to arrange a marriage for the Fifth Prince.

Lord Ji, the chief envoy of the Imperial Observatory, discovered that the Fifth Prince’s horoscope contained the noble Kui Yue.

However, the combination of body and life gathers [Seven Killings], [Uranus], [Natural Purge], [Heavenly Punishment] and [Mars], and the evil stars are too heavy.

There is a saying in divination that "if the Seven Killings come upon you, you will die young", so there is a possibility that you will not live long.

The emperor was shocked. Yongqi was his most admired son besides Yonglian. How could he accept that Yongqi would die young?

So he slammed the table and stood up, angrily asking the Imperial Observatory to come up with a solution.

The Imperial Observatory said that the Fifth Prince, Yongqi, had too many unlucky stars and was not suitable to get married too early. He should cultivate his fate and wait at least five years before finding someone with a similar fate to match him, only then could the bad luck be resolved.

The emperor had no choice but to agree in order to save his son.

Afterwards, he went to the Yanxi Palace embarrassedly and told Hailan not to arrange a marriage for Yongqi for the time being.

Hailan is timid, and the emperor does not intend to tell her the truth.

Hai Lan said disappointedly that she still wanted Yongqi to get married as soon as possible so that she could become a nanny.

In order to compensate Hai Lan, the emperor sent her a lot of rewards and decided to let her stay in the Yanxi Palace tonight.

In the side hall, everything was quiet...
