Chapter 516: He Will Regret It Sooner or Later
Yan Wan went back to Yongshou Palace and brought all the people with her before going to Yanxi Palace.
When the eunuchs guarding the gate saw this, they hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted, and no one went in to report the news.
However, the little palace maid guarding the main entrance saw this and bravely rushed into the main hall.
Yanwan was not surprised by this. Ruyi had suffered a lot and had learned her lesson. She finally knew to choose her confidants while she was away from home.
That's it.
If Ruyi didn't have a "confidant" who dared to tell the truth and loved to stir up trouble, how could she have been so hot-headed as to kill the emperor?
She stepped over the threshold and entered the Yanx Palace, but did not go inside. Instead, she waited for Wang Chan to set up the chairs and then sat directly in the yard.
Ruyi came out in a hurry to greet him. Her buttons were not even buttoned, which showed that she had just done something in the house that was not suitable for others to know.
She raised the handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Ruyi's expression was slightly stiff, and she knelt hurriedly to salute: "Greetings to the Imperial Concubine, may the Imperial Concubine be well!"
Yan Wan leaned back slightly and said, "Move to the downwind side."
Ruyi's whole body stiffened, her face flushed red, and she almost subconsciously closed her legs and hurriedly hid far away.
After a long while, she managed a smile: "Why doesn't the Imperial Concubine go sit inside? The sun is too strong outside..."
Yan Wan sneered: "I dare not sit on the cushion you sat on."
Ruyi froze again, feeling quite humiliated: "Why does the Imperial Concubine have to humiliate me like this? We are all women..."
Yan Wan interrupted her: "Since we are all women, you are willing to be lowly and even implicate others. How can you still have the nerve to ridicule others?"
Ruyi froze again and forced a smile: "Royal Concubine, you misunderstood. I just went to ask about Concubine Rong's health. Who would have thought that she would be so irritable and even have a miscarriage... Hasn't she been taking medicine? I didn't expect that she would be pregnant!"
Yan Wan's eyes were filled with coldness: "Since you plead guilty, I will give you a light punishment."
She called Yunjiao: "Give her the tea you just brewed for Yao Changzai!"
Ruyi was so scared that she was trembling all over: "No, no, no! I don't want to drink tea! I don't want to drink tea! I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong!"
Yanwan leaned back in her chair and looked down at her condescendingly - judging from her reaction, it was probably because Jinzhong had treated her to a drink once.
She glanced at Ruyi and said, "Since you've drunk it..."
Ruyi's eyes suddenly lit up.
Yan Wan said calmly: "Then drink it again, I think you will be familiar with it."
Without waiting for Ruyi to beg for mercy, Yunjiao and two maids had already held her down, pinched her chin and poured tea into Ruyi's mouth.
It wasn't boiling water, even if it was at the beginning, it had cooled down a lot along the way.
But no matter how cold it is, is it the kind that makes people open their mouths and gasp for air? No.
After finishing the pot of tea, Ruyi was like a fish that was about to die on the shore, gasping and wailing wildly.
Even so, Yan Wan still refused to let her go: "You have always been stubborn. I always respect people with pride, so I brought something else on purpose."
Ruyi's eyes widened in horror, she grabbed Yanwan's skirt and begged for mercy in a hoarse voice: "Please forgive me! I really don't dare to provoke Concubine Rong again! I will avoid her when I see her in the future!"
That voice sounded like an old door bolt that had not been opened for a long time.
Yanwan glanced at Chunchan.
Chunchan slapped Ruyi's hand away and said respectfully, "Yao Changzai, you should cherish your life. Think about the Eighteenth Prince who is still outside the palace. If you commit a crime and get into trouble, who will remember the Eighteenth Prince?"
Ruyi was shocked, angry, and scared: "Don't touch him! Don't touch my son!... You said you wouldn't touch a child!"
Yan Wan smiled and said, "Just bear with it. I will not leave until I vent my anger for Concubine Rong today."
Ruyi screamed and begged for mercy, but the bloodless punishments one after another still drained her strength.
Yan Wan watched the whole thing with her own eyes with a cold face. After watching it, she stood up with a faint expression and lowered her eyes, as if she was looking at a dirty thing: "Remember the lesson today, Concubine Rong is the woman that the emperor loves and cherishes the most. If I see you talking back to her again, we can double what we did today and do it again once, twice, countless times."
Ruyi was in so much pain that she couldn't even lift a finger, and could only move her eyeballs with difficulty: "Is it because of you, Your Majesty?"
Yan Wan sneered, turned around and walked away.
Ruyi collapsed on the ground. Rong Pei and the young palace maid Feicui came to help her up and carefully put her back on the bed.
Ruyi rolled her eyes and looked at Rong Pei.
Rong Pei shuddered and said in fear, "I will go and get the imperial physician for the master! ... I will ask Imperial Physician Jiang!"
A trace of disappointment flashed across Ruyi's eyes, and she spoke with difficulty: "Hurry up."
Rong Pei ran out in a hurry as if she had been pardoned.
Feicui choked up and said, "The Imperial Concubine is really too much. How could she bully you like this? The Emperor loves you, I'm going to ask the Emperor to make a decision for you! When the Emperor was on his southern tour, he already punished you because of Concubine Rong. This matter has been turned over. Why does the Imperial Concubine have to punish you again?"
She said angrily: "I think the Imperial Concubine is just here to take revenge on you! What's this about helping Concubine Rong get revenge? It's all just an excuse!"
She said angrily: "If the Imperial Concubine really loves Concubine Rong, why would she mention Concubine Rong specifically? She just wants you to hate Concubine Rong!"
Ruyi looked at Feicui with emotion: "You are the only one who cares about me this much."
Just a few words made her cry in pain.
Feicui was so distressed that she burst into tears: "Master, please stop talking! When you get better, I will listen to whatever you want to say! I will go and plead for you first! Ask the emperor to make the decision for you!"
After saying that, she rushed out in a hurry despite Ruyi's attempt to stop her.
Ruyi was extremely anxious, but she could only lie down because she couldn't move.
It was not until Jiang Yubin was invited by Rong Pei to come over, and he examined her, and she took the medicine and left, that Feicui came back.
It was carried back by someone.
Jinbao personally sent the person back, and brought back the emperor's oral instructions: "The emperor said that Yao Changzai did not know the seriousness of the matter. As soon as she came back, she instigated the palace maids to make trouble and was disrespectful to the imperial concubine. He specifically asked the servant to ask Yao Changzai to behave herself and slap her in the face thirty times."
After saying this, he seemed to forget that Ruyi had been ravaged once before. He picked up the long slapping board and beat her while she lay there. He hit her thirty times in a row.
Ruyi's mouth was completely swollen, pouted high, red and bright, and tears kept flowing.
Jinbao bowed to her respectfully and said, "Master Yao, please take a rest. I will take my leave now."
After saying that, he led his people out one after another.
Ruyi was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling, her eyes filled with crazy murderous intent.
If Hongli had treated her as a human being, he wouldn't have humiliated her to death like this! He was waiting! Sooner or later! Sooner or later, she would make him regret it!
