Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Jia Ling's Double Rebirth, Creates a Great Success
Chapter 72 Ling Yunche's First Experience in the Ministry of Punishment
Rong Pei stepped forward quickly, covered Ruyi's mouth, and screamed to the emperor:
"Your Majesty, although our mistress is jealous of the Empress and has evil intentions, she is devoted to you. She really has not committed adultery. You can let Ling Yunche be punished. The mistress is willing to do so."
Ruyi had her mouth tightly covered by Rong Pei, and tears mixed with sweat flowed down her face, sticking her hair to her face, making her look very embarrassed.
"Your Majesty, this servant and my master are inseparable. I have accompanied my master to the cold palace and have been confined to her house. How could this servant not understand my master's thoughts? Please forgive her."
From what Rong Pei said, the emperor understood that Ruyi admitted to her intention to steal, but did not admit to having an affair with Anji.
He thought about it and realized that Anji had only been in the palace for one afternoon, so a private affair should not develop.
Ruyi was suppressed by Rong Pei and lost all her strength, falling to the ground helplessly.
She also knew that Rong Pei's words would at most punish her for not abiding by palace rules and disrespecting the queen, which was much better than the multiple crimes she had just been charged with.
These were the kinds of excuses she could not think of.
The emperor glanced at the master and servant, his eyes fixed on Ruyi.
"Ruyi, is what your maid said true? Are you jealous of the Queen? Do you want Ling Yunche to enter the Ministry of Punishment?"
Her self-esteem made Ruyi unable to say a word, and she was unwilling to admit her secret thoughts.
But it seems that she can't get away with it today. The sweat on Ruyi's forehead dripped onto the back of her hand, which suddenly woke her up. She admitted with red eyes:
"Yes, I am jealous that the Queen can use such a luxurious pearl."
Rong Pei smiled imperceptibly and kowtowed a few times, "Your Majesty, our master's thoughts are evident to all, please forgive her."
The emperor snorted coldly and looked at Rong Pei and said, "You are really loyal. Someone, come and announce my decree. Concubine Xian has disregarded palace rules and attempted to steal the Dongzhu imperial beads. She is demoted to a noble lady and her title and seal are taken back. Ling Yunche has left his post without permission and allowed people into Baohua Palace without permission. He is to be taken to the Ministry of Punishment."
Shupin had a stubborn temper and insisted on everything. She wanted to continue arguing, but Hailan held her back and signaled her not to say anything more.
The emperor walked away mercilessly, leaving behind the embarrassed Ruyi and secretly proud Rong Pei.
Rong Pei gently raised her hand to wipe away the sweat on her forehead, and replaced her bitter smile with eyes full of worry and fear. She said to Ruyi tremblingly:
"Master, I just did this to save your life. You won't blame me, will you? I was really in a desperate situation and had no choice."
Ruyi was misled by Rong Pei's words. Rong Pei did save her life and minimize her guilt.
But Ling Yunche, Ling Yunche went to the Ministry of Punishment.
Ruyi's face was in pain, her eyes were red and she squeezed out a few tears.
"Rong Pei, why don't you take the initiative to stand up and say that the Dongzhu Chaozhu is what you want? Why let Ling Yunche suffer so much? He is an upright man."
Rong Pei was once again shocked by her master's shamelessness. Ling Yunche's life is life, but her life is not?
After Ruyi finished crying, her eyes gradually became firm.
"Rong Pei, come back to Yikun Palace with me. Let's think of a way to save Ling Yunche."
In Qixiang Palace, Jin Yuyan listened to Hailan's story about Baohua Palace, and strange thoughts lingered in her mind:
She hasn't even made a move yet, so how did Ruyi get involved?
She was still thinking of a big move for Ruyi! Now, the master was sent to prison, Ruyi became a noble lady, and Ling Yunche was sent to the Ministry of Punishment.
Hai Lan was still muttering, "Sister Jia Fei, it's a good thing you asked me to leave Ye Xin behind to look after Master An Ji, otherwise there would have been a big mess."
Jin Yuyan smiled gently and said, "I just think it's unreasonable for a man from outside to live in the palace, but there's no way to change it. If something happens, won't it be your fault? That's why I'm just reminding you."
Hai Lan thought about it and told Jin Yuyan everything Rong Pei did that day. As sensitive as she was, she could clearly feel that Rong Pei and Ruyi were not of the same mind that day.
Jin Yuyan was also shocked after hearing this. She held Hailan's hand and warned: "Hailan, no matter what, Ruyi has brought this upon herself. Just pretend you don't know about it."
Hailan looked at Jin Yuyan affectionately. Sister Jiafei was protecting her. Hailan felt sour in her heart. This was the sisterhood she wanted.
Jin Yuyan felt something was wrong. Why did Hai Lan look at her with such a fixed gaze, just like she looked at Ruyi in her previous life? She quickly changed the subject and said:
"Being pregnant with twins is exhausting. I've been having back pain lately and can't sleep well at night."
Hai Lan received the instruction. Concubine Jia had a bad back. She said considerately:
"Sister Jiafei, I will go back and embroider a comfortable waist pillow for you. Wait for me."
Hailan came and went like a little whirlwind, leaving no trace.
Jin Yuyan chuckled. This was a good thing. She always did bad things herself and would not let Hailan get involved.
Zhenshu came over and offered Jin Yuyan a cup of ginseng tea, whispering in her ear:
"Master, your mother and the second young lady have already been settled in the capital. They followed your instructions and brought more than half of the property of your mother's family, the Yu family."
Jin Yuyan nodded with satisfaction. This was enough for her mother and sister to gain a foothold in the capital. When the eighth and ninth children were born, it would be time for her to settle accounts with Li Yin.
Jin Yuyan gently brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and said skillfully:
"Write another letter to the prince, saying that I am about to give birth and need fifty thousand taels of silver as a gift. It must be delivered within a month."
This is Jin Yuyan's final blackmail on the prince. Once her mother and sister arrive in the capital, they can escape unscathed. As for her father, he personally cut off his bond with her when she was down and out in her previous life, and in this life, she wants to cut it off with her own hands.
This time, she was willing to give up the honor of being a noble concubine and to bring down the crown prince. Jin Yuyan smiled brilliantly, more beautiful than ever.
In Yikun Palace, Ruyi anxiously opened all her makeup boxes to look for money. She wanted to use the money to bribe Ling Yunche so that he would have an easier time in the Ministry of Punishment.
But after collecting all the silver, she only had fifty taels, and she had to rely on these fifty taels to get through a year without monthly wages.
Ruyi thought of soapberries again, but a box of soapberries cost three taels of silver.
Rong Pei considerately took out the box that her master had asked Ling Yunche to bring to her, and volunteered to go to the Ministry of Punishment to bring warmth to Ling Yunche.
"Master, Lord Ling is now on the fourth day of his torture. He will be released in three days. I have some soapberries here, so I can run a trip for you."
Ruyi looked at the "loyal" Rong Pei with emotion. At this time, only Rong Pei could still do things for her.
Ruyi said to Rong Pei with tears in her eyes, "Rong Pei, tell Ling Yunche to wait for me. I will definitely find a way to rescue him. Tell him to be strong."
The autumn heat in July is still unbearable, but the Ministry of Punishment is filled with a chilly atmosphere. This is where Rong Pei was once punished, and it is also the place where she and A Ruo said goodbye.
Doing it again, she became even more certain that what she did was right. Rong Pei walked down the stairs, and her lower abdomen ached slightly with every step.
But when she thought about meeting Ling Yunche, a satisfied smile appeared on her lips.
Ling Yunche had just finished his day's caning, fifty strokes of the cane a day, but the people from the Ministry of Punishment only hit his right leg. He was in so much pain that he was almost losing consciousness. He could only feel that his right leg seemed to be twice as thick as his left leg.
His right leg is probably broken...
Ling Yunche sighed, and saw a long shadow falling in front of him. He raised his head and saw Rong Pei's gentle face.
"Master Ling, I am here to bring you something on the orders of my master~"
Rong Pei's voice was unusually happy and bright, which made Ling Yunche feel as if the clouds had cleared and the fog had turned white. It seemed that Concubine Xian had found a way to rescue him.
Ling Yunche grabbed the corner of Rong Pei's clothes and tried to get up, but Rong Pei took advantage of the situation and pressed down his right leg.
"what!"
Ling Yunche twisted in pain, and Rong Pei threw the box down in shock, hitting Ling Yunche right on the head.
"Oh, Master Ling, I'm sorry, I forgot your leg was injured."
After Ling Yunche calmed down from the pain, he asked Rong Pei with a cold sweat on his forehead: "Did Concubine Xian find a way to rescue me?"
Rong Pei nodded proudly, "Of course, the master said that the best way is
-----wait."
As she spoke, she opened a box of soapberries on the ground and explained with concern:
"Master Ling must be familiar with the things in here. This is the master's expectation for you. I hope you can come back with integrity and a clean record in the future."
Ling Yunche looked at the box of soapberries before he understood the hidden meaning.
"Come back? Where am I coming back from? Where is the emperor going to send me?"
"Of course it's Mulan Paddock. The grass is low in the wind and the sky and earth are vast. It's the best place for Lord Ling to make achievements."
After Rong Pei finished speaking, she stood up, closed the box with her foot, and walked briskly out of the Ministry of Punishment.
Ling Yunche endured the pain in his legs and held the box of soapberries in his arms. He had no way out.
The fourth day was the day when Ling Yunche came out of the Ministry of Punishment and was taken to Mulan Paddock.
Ruyi changed into a golden cloak embroidered with trumpet creepers, and her hair was adorned with pearls and jade. She also pinned a bright red rose in her hair and asked Rong Pei to put on an equally bright lip balm for her.
Lingzhi rarely saw her master dressed so beautifully, and happily praised:
"My Lord looks so beautiful dressed up, are you going to see the Emperor?"
Ruyi smiled charmingly, "Have you forgotten what day it is today?"
Lingzhi thought for a long time. Today is not the Emperor's Birthday, nor the day when the master enters the palace, nor is it the master's birthday. So what day could it be?
Ruyi replied in a coquettish voice:
"Today is the day Ling Yunche goes to Mulan Paddock."
After saying this, she felt a little lonely. She stopped the dress she was wearing and changed her tone to a sad one.
"Rong Pei, Ling Yunche is leaving after his punishment. I don't want to be dazzling. So, you accompany me to see Ling Yunche off."
On the palace road leading from the inner court to the outer court, Ling Yunche was wearing shackles and handcuffs and was being escorted towards the palace gate. Suddenly, a voice came from behind...
