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

Ruyi staggered into Chengqian Palace. When the palace maid came in to report, she walked to the main hall without caring about anything.

"Princess Qing, why do you have to force Yongji to study so hard? He is just a child."

Yihuan and Lu Muping turned around at the same time, their faces full of disgust.

The two couldn't understand why Concubine Xian, who hadn't set foot in Chengqian Palace or greeted Yongqi for three or four years, came today?

Yongji and Yongheng stood up together and asked how Empress Xian was doing. Then, Yongji looked at Lu Muping with deep doubts and worries in his eyes.

Lu Muping didn't want the two children to hear anything, so she patted Yongqi's shoulder and asked someone to take them to the Yanx Palace to play with Yun Gege for a while.

Yongji was not close to her and didn't even smile at her. Ruyi felt upset and puffed up her lips again.

Lu Muping glared at Ruyi angrily. She knew that this unlucky Concubine Xian had definitely no good intentions in coming to Chengqian Palace.

Yihuan remained calm and asked Ruyi coldly, "What is the matter with Concubine Xian coming to Chengqian Palace?"

Ruyi sat down on the soft stool, took out her thick hands from her sleeves and placed them on both sides of her body.

"Let's put aside the matter for now. I want to ask Concubine Qing why she let Yongqi play with Grandma Tian's daughter. Don't you know that Grandma Tian once harmed me when I was giving birth?"

Lu Muping looked at Yihuan for help, stamping her feet anxiously. Yihuan held her back, looked directly at Ruyi and said:

"Lady Xian, weren't you the one who first deprived Grandma Tian and then made things difficult for her? How can you say that she harmed you? It's really like a mouse has skin, but a man has no manners! If a man has no manners, why not die?"

Ruyi has always had a slight liking for Yihuan. She always feels that such a talented woman with a noble family background should revolve around her.

Yihuan's flowery sarcasm made Ruyi feel a little proud, because she could understand what Yihuan meant.

So she opened her mouth wide, pouted unconsciously and said:

"Yihuan, you and I both come from a rich family, so naturally you don't understand people like Tian Yun'er who were born as palace maids. They will do anything to climb up the social ladder. If Yongqi stays with her, he will be infected with bad habits."

Yi Huan snorted coldly. She had seen through it all. She couldn't talk to Concubine Xian in a human way. She had to scold her thoroughly and make her understand clearly.

"I am different from you. I never think there is anything wrong with climbing up the ladder. On the contrary, you are not making progress yourself, but you are trying to throw mud at those who work hard. What qualifications do you have to give advice here when you sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor? Yongji and Yun'er will only get better and better if they play together. If they follow you, they will fall into the abyss."

Lu Muping also stood beside Yihuan and said with her head held high:

"As the mother, I have no objection. When is it the turn of Concubine Xian to point fingers? Yongji is doing well now. If you come to see him, I welcome you. If you come to point fingers, then get out!"

Ruyi was angered by Lu Muping's declaration of sovereignty. Even though the royal family's imperial genealogy was changed, Yongqi was still her biological son after ten months of pregnancy.

Ruyi thought about what she heard when she just came in. Lu Muping actually wanted Yongqi to write an article all night. Isn't this threatening the child?

She chose Lu Muping, who was easier to deal with, and said:

"Princess Qing, you have the emperor's order to support Yongji, so you should love him well. You force Yongji to study and stay up all night, which will tire him out."

Lu Muping stared with round eyes and asked angrily:

"What do you mean I force Yongji to study? The rules of the Shangshufang are here. If Yongji doesn't finish writing, he will be punished. Over the years, which prince has not gone through this? Does Concubine Xian have to see Yongji being reprimanded by the emperor during his dialogue to be satisfied?"

Ruyi was finally reminded by Lu Muping of the purpose of her visit today. She wanted to advise Yongji as a mother and give him confidence.

Ruyi jumped and turned, facing Lu Muping, and expressed her opinion seriously.

"Princess Qing, didn't you see what happened to Yonghuang and Yongzhang? They were disliked by the emperor because they studied hard. As a mother, I don't want him to be too tired. I just want Yongqi to be a noble prince."

Yihuan and Lu Muping were almost laughed out of anger by Ruyi. This was simply a huge joke.

Yihuan stood up and for the first time showed the oppression of the Yehenara clan in front of Ruyi.

"Since my great-grandfather, three generations of my family have been tutors for the princes. From the descendants of the great grandfather to the princes of the present emperor, none of them have not worked hard day and night, but how many of them can be crowned as princes? Lady Xian, do you know that the noble princes you are talking about must either be outstanding in talent and learning or have made great military achievements? If you don't let the children work hard, they will probably be bald princes all their lives."

Yihuan's words left Ruyi unable to refute. She opened her mouth and finally uttered,

"Yongji is different from them. Yongji is the child of the emperor and I. The emperor named him Yongji, which means he can continue the family business."

While Yihuan was having a headache, Lu Muping disappeared without her knowing. Instead, Yongqi appeared, sticking his head out of the door, trembling all over.

He stepped in, his little head covered with sweat, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Empress Xian, my name is Yongqi, not Yongji. My name is the jade ornament at the seam of leather goods, not Jiye."

Yihuan looked at Yongji with pity. No wonder he had been absorbed in reading Shuowen Jiezi those days.

Yongqi walked up to Ruyi step by step, raised his head, and there were tears in his eyes.

"Empress Xian, I am not special or important in the Emperor's heart. I have never received any preferential treatment from the Emperor because of the phrase you taught me. I even have to work very hard to make the Emperor notice me."

Ruyi stood up. She thought about how the Emperor asked her to sing "Wall Horse" on the stage. He used their love song as a tool to tease her. It was her shame.

But Yongqi brought up this matter again to provoke her.

Ruyi glared and said, "Yongji, why are you so self-deprecating? Are you blaming me for holding you back and bringing shame upon you? If I hadn't given birth to you in two days and two nights, how could you have been born? I am your mother, you can't stab my heart with a knife like this."

Yongqi's eyes were blurred with tears. He hated himself for being weak and unable to completely let go of Empress Xian.

When he was with his mother, he was happy and confident, but every time he saw Empress Xian, his emotions would fall into the abyss.

Yongqi tried so hard to be seen by the Emperor, just because of something he overheard two months ago.

Empress Yu and my mother said that all the princesses in the palace had found their marriages, except Jingsi.

Next winter, all Mongolian princes and nobles will come to Beijing to pay homage to the emperor. If the emperor shows mercy, Jingsi will be able to find a good marriage and try to stay in the capital.

Yongqi knew that the Mongolian tribes were well aware of what had happened to Empress Xian, and they were afraid that it would affect Jingsi's reputation.

Yongqi was eager to grow up and become a support for his sister and mother.

Seeing Yongji collapse, Yihuan hugged him in her arms with heartache, and Yongji finally couldn't hold back his sobs.

Outside the hall, Lu Muping walked in quickly with a spoon.
