Chapter 121 They are all good kids
The Queen Mother looked at Ruyi scrutinizingly, as if she was meeting her for the first time.
In the ear chamber, Hongli's pupils also trembled and a look of surprise flashed across his face.
He often felt that Ruyi was stupid recently, and hopelessly stupid. He didn't expect that she could even guess the emperor's thoughts.
Isn't this what he has been hesitating about recently, besides emotions?
Hengchu has already married far away. If Hengti is allowed to marry again, it will not only be unfair to the Empress Dowager, but it will also make Mongolia favor the Empress Dowager's family.
In fact, he was inclined to marry Jing犇 to Mongolia, but he thought that he owed the queen too much over the years, and the queen's health was already at the end of its strength. If Jing犇 got married, he was afraid that she would really die, so he could not make up his mind.
If at this moment, the ministers unanimously petitioned for Hengti to get married, and the Queen Mother was still as lustful for power as before, then he would really ignore the Queen's health and let Jingjue get married.
Yan Wan noticed Hongli's subtle expression, and a hint of sarcasm flashed across her eyes.
Most men are like this. When interests are not involved, they are good husbands and good fathers. However, once their fundamental interests are threatened, their attitude as good husbands and good fathers can change in an instant.
After all, as long as he changes the woman and has a new child, he can still continue to be a good husband and a good father.
Most men in this world are like this, not to mention the man in front of you, whose fundamental interests are the whole world.
She leaned in his arms happily, listening to Ruyi next door making jokes.
Is this plagiarizing Zhang Tingyu's original words?
Copy it!
One copied and one kept silent!
Doesn't she like to hear others praise her intelligence?
Let’s see, after being personally certified as smart by the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, can Ruyi, the niece of Ulanara Yixiu, still rely on her thick skin to pretend to be stupid?
Just thinking about the future confrontation between the three parties, she almost laughed out loud on the spot and had to turn her face away to avoid being seen by Hongli.
Hongli didn't know that she was full of sarcasm at the moment, and thought she was worried about the queen. He patted the back of her hand soothingly and continued listening.
At this time, the Queen Mother next door was looking at Ruyi meaningfully: "The Queen's body is already at the end of its strength. She lost Yongcong first. If she loses Jingjue now, I'm afraid she can't bear this blow."
Ruyi said calmly, "The Empress is the Empress of the Qing Dynasty, and Princess Jingjue is the legitimate princess of the Qing Dynasty. They are supported by the people of the world and are raised with precious treasures. They should make contributions to the Qing Dynasty."
The Queen Mother said meaningfully: "You really hate the Queen."
Ruyi pulled the corner of her mouth, trying to decide whether to smile or not: "The Empress Dowager has misunderstood. I just hope that the Emperor will not embarrass me anymore."
She was so eloquent and persuasive, completely different from when she was speechless in front of the emperor.
Not to mention that Hongli next door was shocked by her, even the empress dowager looked at her with new eyes: "I thought that if the emperor treated you well, you would be loyal to him."
Ruyi looked proud: "It doesn't matter how the emperor treats me. The most important thing is that the emperor should be filial to his mother. Then, I will definitely be filial to the emperor and help the queen mother solve her problems. Of course, I can endure all grievances and fulfill the emperor's reputation."
The Empress Dowager recalled that when the Emperor had just ascended the throne, she and Hongli had been at odds with each other over Ulanara Yixiu. At that time, it was Ruyi who came to give her advice and it was she who persuaded the Emperor.
She suddenly laughed: "Back then, the emperor refused to let me live in the Cining Palace in order to let you have someone to rely on. He kept dragging me to live with the concubines. He didn't even care about the hatred of being poisoned, and wanted Ulanara to be the Holy Mother Empress Dowager to suppress me.
Who could have thought that you sneaked out to find me, brought poisoned wine to me, gave Ulanara a helping hand, and then turned around to persuade the emperor to be filial. "
As she spoke, she laughed. After she finished laughing, she raised her hand and nodded at her: "You have been tossing around like this, as if you have suffered a lot for the emperor. The emperor does feel that you have been wronged and feels more and more guilty about you. For so many years, he has always felt sorry for you. However, the emperor insisted for you, but you cooperated with me everywhere. Isn't this stabbing him in the back?"
After all, when she and Hongli had a rift because of Yixiu, their fight quickly changed. It was no longer a quarrel between mother and son, but a struggle for power in the imperial harem.
Hongli wanted to drag her down until she surrendered. If she really surrendered at that time, the emperor would be like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, and it would be difficult for him to be restrained by her in the future.
But Ruyi stabbed him in the back.
I don’t know what the emperor felt when he heard these words.
Anyway, she is very happy. Doesn't she want to learn from his father to be a romantic and have a white moonlight to worship?
Therefore, I was plotted against and betrayed, and I deserved it!
The Queen Mother looked at Ruyi and said, "I will remember your favor today. You can go back now."
Ruyi smiled and said, "Then I will take my leave."
The Queen Mother praised her with a smile: "You really act like you are doing this for the Emperor. You don't even ask me for any favors. In fact, if you ask, I might be able to raise your position back."
Ruyi is as calm as a chrysanthemum and doesn't care about power: "I just want to share the emperor's worries. I don't care about status at all."
The Queen Mother smiled sarcastically: "You are very good, a good child."
How could this woman not care about her status?
Doesn't she care about the position of a concubine, and is thinking that after the queen is angered to death, she can use this favor to become the next queen?
Ruyi did not notice the empress dowager's sarcasm. She felt that she had already done her job, so she left the book she had copied and left.
The Queen Mother looked at Fujia.
Fu Jia bowed and said, "Empress Lingpin is here too."
The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows slightly: "I really like this child a little bit."
Fujia smiled and said, "You are kind."
Just go next door and invite Hongli and Yanwan.
After a while, Hongli came with Yanwan.
The Empress Dowager only needed to look at Hongli's expression to know that she had really received this unexpected surprise today.
Originally, she just thought that her relationship with the emperor had greatly eased recently, and it was even a bit like the feeling of relying on each other in the palace.
In addition, Hongli's mind seemed to be much more normal recently, so she thought that Ruyi must have a deep intention in coming here. She asked Hongli to come over. If his mind was still clear, she wanted him to see the true face of his woman more clearly, so as to explain the reason for the conflict between them in the past.
If he is not clear-headed, then it should be considered as a way for him and Ruyi to save face, so that Hongli can experience the mother-son love and not marry Hengti.
Who would have thought?
Ruyi's words hit Hongli's sore spot.
Hongli really could not tolerate the fact that Nianhulu was too powerful, so her daughter did not need to be married off.
Besides...
And there is that good boy Jingjing.
The Queen Mother looked at Hongli gently, as if she knew nothing about his imperial mind and divine judgment, and said lovingly: "Your Majesty, don't worry about me and the Queen. Do you know why the Queen fainted? And why am I so willful that I didn't go to see the Queen at this time?"
Hongli was stunned: "Did something else happen?"
The Queen Mother said in a gentle voice: "Jingjue is a good child. When she heard that I and the Queen were confronting each other, she rushed in and begged on her knees to be allowed to marry to Mongolia. Her only request was that I take good care of the Queen after she got married."
Hongli stood up suddenly: "Jingjing, she actually..."
