Chapter 131: Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Wei Yanwan. 51
Qingying frowned in grievance. She stood up straight with dissatisfaction, looking at Wei Yanwan as if she was looking at an unforgivable evil person. She said stubbornly: "Why did the Royal Concubine confine me? There is nothing wrong between me and Master Anji! These groundless rumors should not be taken seriously!"
"The Imperial Concubine's move is rather biased."
Wei Yanwan didn't even frown. She narrowed her eyes slightly, and her sight became sharp. Wei Yanwan snorted coldly and said, "Xianpin, what do you think I should do? This matter is all caused by you. I said before Master Anji came that the distinction between men and women must be taken into consideration."
"Now that you have done something like this, I, who am now in charge of the six palaces, must investigate thoroughly. Even if you want to protest your injustice, wait until you can refute Concubine Jia's testimony before telling me."
Jin Yuyan was happy to see Qingying in pain, and quickly agreed happily: "The Imperial Concubine is right."
"Aunt Yuhu, take Concubine Xian away."
Wei Yanwan directly ordered Yu Hu to take Ruyi back. Everyone in the Yangxin Palace knew how Hongli treated her over the years, so Yu Hu naturally did not dare to disobey her orders.
Qingying was not convinced and could only shout: "I do not accept it! If this matter is not ordered by the emperor, I will never obey!"
"I don't care whether you accept it or not, Yu Hu, take her away!"
Yu Hu looked a little reluctant, and turned to look at Wei Yanwan and pleaded in a low voice: "Royal Noble Consort, why don't you meet the Emperor so that Concubine Xian will be convinced."
It seems that she really likes Qingying and is still begging for her. Wei Yanwan took a deep breath, "Yuhu, I respect you as the aunt in front of the emperor. Don't forget your master."
Yu Hu looked puzzled, but she still had a little hope in her heart: "This servant... This servant's master is naturally the emperor."
"Good, what a great emperor!"
Wei Yanwan closed her eyes and said loudly: "Jinzhong!"
"The slave is here!"
Jinzhong, who was guarding the door, couldn't wait to come in. When he heard Wei Yanwan calling him, he hurried in: "What do you want, Imperial Concubine?"
"Send Concubine Xian back and confine her to Yanxi Palace. Release her after the matter is thoroughly investigated."
Jinzhong agreed without hesitation: "Yes, I obey your command."
Having said that, Jinzhong directly called a few eunuchs and guards to take Qingying and Suoxin away. Yu Hu seemed to want to say something, but finally fell silent under Wei Yanwan's cold gaze.
Wei Yanwan didn't give her any face at all. She looked at Yu Hu and said to her, "I will report today's events to the emperor truthfully. Aunt, please go down."
Then she looked at Jin Yuyan, who was also obedient. When she saw Wei Yanwan looking at her, she knelt down with a smile and said, "Then I will not disturb the Imperial Noble Consort anymore. I will take my leave first."
Wei Yanwan nodded, and only let out a sigh of relief after watching Jin Yuyan leave. She didn't expect Yu Hu to like Qingying as well. In that case, don't blame her.
Patting her sleeves, Wei Yanwan walked into the study room in the west hall. Hongli was sitting there reading the memorial. When he heard the noise, he said, "The matter is resolved."
"Alas, I am incompetent. As an imperial concubine, I can't even order a servant around." Wei Yanwan pretended to be helpless and looked at Hongli with innocent eyes, with obvious accusation in her eyes.
Hongli couldn't help laughing, so he pulled her over, looked at her reluctant expression and said with a smile: "Jinzhong has been fooled by you, if Yuhu doesn't obey, just replace him, there are many people who want to take this position."
Actually, he was only taking care of Yu Hu at first. After all, she was a little older, and because of some connection in the past, she did have some abilities.
Wei Yanwan blinked her eyes: "Your Majesty, don't you blame me?"
"What do I blame you for?"
Hongli held her tightly in his arms, smelled her fragrance, and kissed her forehead with a smile on his face.
Wei Yanwan stroked his back, her eyes looking at him intently: "I have confined your childhood sweetheart~"
"...Okay, don't you know who I have in my heart?"
Hongli pinched her face and said unhappily, "You are so mean."
Wei Yanwan smiled like a cat that had stolen some fish, feeling extremely proud.
Hongli couldn't bear to blame her when he saw her like this, and Yanwan did a great job in this matter. She just confined Qingying for a few days, but she didn't really let her stay at home. Qingying was too petty, and she had to ask him to do such a small thing.
Then what does he want the queen for? Wouldn't it be nice if he could manage the harem himself?
However, Yu Hu's attitude was indeed a suspicious point, so when Wei Yanwan went to the study to pick up Yongqi, Hongli summoned Yu Hu in to talk.
Yu Hu was also a little nervous, but she didn't think she was wrong. She felt that she was just a loyal subordinate, reminding the imperial concubine a word, and Qingying and the emperor knew each other when they were young, so could she just give up this childhood sweetheart relationship?
However, Hongli really told her that he could indeed give it up.
Yu Hu knelt on the ground. When she heard Hongli's order to transfer her away from the imperial court, she looked up at him in disbelief, "Your Majesty..."
She stared at him blankly, at a loss. She had accompanied the emperor all the way here, and had been selected by the emperor to be a court lady because of her meticulousness. She had never thought...
"Your Majesty, I am only doing what a subordinate should do. The Royal Concubine's actions are too hasty. I am only giving you a reminder!"
Hongli lowered his eyes and looked at her, his face still as calm as before: "I have already made up my mind about this matter. The Imperial Concubine will be my queen in the future. We will both prosper and suffer together. If you disrespect the Imperial Concubine, you will have ignored my words."
"Yuhu, you have been working for so many years, how come you have forgotten your identity? If you don't want to do it, there are many people who want to take your place."
He is the emperor, and there are countless people who want to serve him, and he does not need anyone like Yu Hu.
Yu Hu's face quickly turned pale. She seemed to be blinded by the relationship between the emperor and Concubine Xian. She only saw that the emperor had personally asked for Concubine Xian's hand in marriage, but forgot that Wei Yanwan was also asked for by the emperor himself.
Moreover, there had been no grudge between the two of them for so many years, so why did she... why did she become so infatuated with him at that time!
No matter how unwilling Yu Hu was, she was dragged away. What awaited her was either death or a lifetime of failure.
For so many years, she regarded the emperor's trust as her life-saving talisman, but she forgot that the emperor was her master, and his words could cause her to die without a burial place.
Jinzhong watched Yu Hu being dragged away, and while he looked down on him, he was also secretly alert. When serving in the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, the most important thing is the emperor's favor. Whoever the emperor likes is the master!
After learning that Wei Yanwan was driven out by Hongli, she saw another cold-faced palace maid coming to replace her.
"What's your name?"
"Your servant Bai Xi pays respect to Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine."
