Zhen Huan Reborn as Langya to Cure Yi Syndrome

Chapter 140 Ruyi's Fight for Favor

The concubines waved goodbye to the autumn hunting team with dignified smiles and tears of reluctance in their eyes, until Hongli disappeared from their sight.

Everyone looked at each other.

"Hurry up, hurry up, what fun has the Queen prepared for us?"

"It's a pity that Concubine Ling is gone. It's a lot less fun."

"What a pity! The strong men have gone to work for us, so we can have a little leisure time."

Balin Meiruo got into her carriage, where an old maid was already waiting.

"Xian Changzai, if you go with me this time, are you confident that you can regain favor?"

"Of course, the affection between me and the emperor is unmatched by anyone."

Balin Meiruo nodded. With Xian Changzai returning to the position of concubine and the contribution of the Balin tribe, she no longer needed to live in fear in the palace.

When the convoy arrived at Mulan Paddock, Ruyi hid in Balin Meiruo's tent. Balin Meiruo led the horse to the pasture to ride.

Ke agreed to ride a horse alone in the pasture. This time, she didn't see her father and brother, and she looked at the sky alone.

When he saw Balin Meiruo galloping over, the two of them made eye contact. Ke Ying said happily, "Is Lady Ying also out for a horse race?"

Balin Meiruo smiled happily and said, "Yes, I have been away from Mongolia for several months. Seeing the grassland again makes me feel very close, so I rode out for a ride."

Ke agreed and asked, "Can I go with you, my Lord?"

"Of course, let's go."

Yonghuang went to Southeast Asia with the fleet again. Yonglian's wife was about to give birth, and Yongzhang said that it was autumn harvest time and he really couldn't leave, so Hongli only took four, five or six children with him.

Yongqi only thought about the orders from his sister and younger sisters, and would try to catch any cute foxes alive. Yongrong only wanted to hunt foxes to make hats and scarves for his mother and Empress Wan.

Yongsheng had no choice but to share all the companionship and praise for his father.

"Your Majesty, you can shoot arrows with ease. I have benefited a lot from hunting with you."

"I am guarding the emperor's side, so I must be good at archery and horse riding."

Hongli was tired, so he returned to his tent to rest. Concubine Ying and Concubine Ke agreed to come and accompany him.

Hongli held the teacup and sipped it, but even the strong tea could not dispel his deep tiredness.

The two little girls in front of him ignored him, spread out the blanket and started playing.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I won again, how is it?"

Hongli was awakened and said nonchalantly, "Very good, reward."

"Let's play another round. I will definitely beat you this time."

Hongli called Jinzhong and ordered, "Call Concubine Ling."

Wei Yanwan was in the tent, learning the horse-head fiddle with Gong Xi and two other maids.

After being summoned, he put down the piano in his hand.

She said to Gong Xi and the other two maids, "I will go to accompany the emperor now. You can go back to your own tents first. You can rest or eat here. Don't be restrained."

Gong Changzai said: "Your Majesty, please don't worry about the concubines. It's you who are really busy and have no time to rest."

Wei Yanwan smiled and said, "It's okay. As concubines, it is our duty to serve the emperor wholeheartedly."

"The concubines have learned their lesson. Your Majesty, please go quickly."

Wei Yanwan came to the emperor's tent, paid her respects, then walked to Hongli's side, wrung a handkerchief in clean water, and carefully wiped Hongli's face.

He then took out the honeydew melon that Hongli liked and handed it to him. While Hongli was eating the honeydew melon, he grabbed his arm, which was a little stiff from drawing the bow, and began to massage it.

Concubine Ying looked at Wei Yanwan with disdain, saying that she was doing things that only servants would do. She was really good at flattery.

Ke agreed and felt secretly annoyed that he had gotten too carried away with the fun again and was not as careful as Concubine Ling.

When Hongli was free, he never left Wei Yanwan for a moment.

Wei Yanwan recommended Gong Changzai and Xi Changzai to sleep with her on the grounds of feeling unwell.

Hongli casually named Xi Changzai.

Xi Changzai looked at Wei Yanwan with gratitude and said, "I thank the Empress Lingfei for her great kindness. I have no way to repay her."

Wei Yanwan smiled and said, "We are all sisters, no need to be polite. The emperor never belongs to one person. It is a blessing for everyone to be able to share the love and harmony in the harem."

"Xi Changzai, hurry up and take a bath and dress up."

Xi Chang had packed everything up and was waiting to be summoned by Hongli.

At this time, Hongli was thrown into the arms of a Mongolian maid.

Hongli felt someone rushing towards him, and reflexively kicked that person in the chest.

"Ouch." A hoarse cry of pain was heard.

Hongli's heart was filled with alarm. Was there another assassin? And he disguised himself as a maid and sneaked into the camp?

The assassin tried to get up, but Hongli kicked him a few more times until the assassin stopped struggling. Then Hongli stopped and called for the guards to come in and catch the assassin.

Ruyi struggled to squeeze out a sound from her throat and said, "Your Majesty, no, it's me."

"Hongli put his foot on the man's throat and took an oil lamp and shone it on his face.

"Xian Changzai? Why are you here?"

Ruyi raised her hand with difficulty, pointed at Hongli's feet and said, "Your Majesty, please lift your feet. I can't breathe well."

Hongli suddenly realized what was going on, retracted his foot, and pulled Ruyi up.

Ruyi shyly wanted to lean on Hongli, "Your Majesty, you are hurting me."

Hongli saw that she was disheveled, stepped away and continued to ask: "How did you end up here?"

Ruyi took out a handkerchief, wiped her dry eyes, and said, "The Queen targeted me, and I couldn't even see the Emperor. Lady Ying felt sorry for me, so she asked me to dress up as a palace maid and come to Mulan Paddock together."

Hongli shook his sleeves and angrily said, "You are so stupid. The Queen has never gone out without you. You just wanted to tell the Queen. You are sneaking around and ignoring the palace rules. Get out of here. When you return to the capital, I will punish you and Balin."

Ruyi raised her head stubbornly, looked directly at Hongli, and sat firmly on Hongli's stool, refusing to leave.

"Someone, drag Xian Changzai out."

Jinzhong walked in and was frightened to death when he saw that the maid who had just come in to clean the house was Ruyi.

After carrying the person away, he immediately knelt down to apologize. The lights were dim at night, and he really didn't expect that a concubine would disguise herself as a Mongolian maid to approach the emperor.

"Hurry up and ask someone to clean up the tent. If you don't pay attention to the people who come near me, I will cut off your head."

After Ruyi made a fuss, Hongli lost interest and completely ignored everyone, leaving only Wei Yanwan by his side.

Xi Changzai did not blame Wei Yanwan, but only put all the blame on Ruyi. She jumped on the emperor to steal his favor, and was thrown out by the guards. She was incompetent.

"My beloved, I want to listen to music."

Wei Yanwan got into position and began to sing "The Peony Pavilion". Hongli was fascinated by the singing and sang along with Wei Yanwan. He was a top amateur singer and could both listen and sing.

The lingering sound of opera lingered in the air for three days. It was so penetrating that it could be heard faintly in the tent of Balin Meiruo.

Balin Meiruo had an appointment with Ke to have a barbecue.

Ke agreed and walked into the tent, and saw Ruyi there. He was reluctant to leave his finally met friend, so he just sat down quietly and didn't talk to Ruyi.
