Yonghuang returned to Yanxi Palace, and saw that the palace was dark and dark, not like a place where the once favored lord lived, and remembered the intimate appearance of Ah Ji who served in the past and now by the emperor's side, even if he had a strong heart, he couldn't help but shed tears, and threw himself into Ruyi's arms, crying: "Mother, mother......

Ruyi hugged him and comforted: "Good boy, it's good to be back." Have you done everything your mother told you? ”

Yonghuang cried and said: "The son doesn't dare to live up to his mother, he has done it all." ”

"Then is your Emperor Ama angry with you?"

"I'm so angry. also said that the son was not allowed to follow his mother anymore, and that he would move to live in the palace of Chun Niang Niang, and she would raise his son. ”

Ruyi's heart was relieved, and she couldn't help laughing and said, "That's good." The pure concubine has a high position, a good temperament, and she has given birth and raised herself, so she knows how to take care of you. You have a good place to go, and your mother is happy. ”

Hailan followed in and cried with her: "Sister, why should I be like this, I don't let the eldest brother intercede, but I still want to annoy the emperor by pleading, and I want the queen and Shen Chang to watch the jokes on the side." ”

"This joke must be seen by people." Ruyi took a deep breath, hugged Yonghuang and said, "Good boy, do you understand your mother's hard work?" ”

Yonghuang nodded and said: "In the future, my son can't be too sharp, let alone too much to please Huang Ama and steal the limelight from the second brother, so as not to be coveted and framed." ”

Ruyi nodded tearfully and said, "Good boy." In the future, if you don't have a mother to protect you, you must remember to protect yourself, and you must not show your edge. If there is anything important, quietly go to Hai Niangniang, she will protect you. ”

Yonghuang nodded and said: "So my son made Huang Ama angry today, and in the future, I don't seem to like Huang Ama as much as I used to like my son, and my son is safer." ”

Ruyi shook her head again and again: "It's a little thorough, it's really a good son of my mother." In this way, even if the mother can't get out of Yanxi Palace in the future, she can rest assured. ”

Yonghuang wiped away his tears and said, "But my son heard from Huang Ama today that he wants to remove his mother to the cold palace and abolish his mother as a concubine." ”

Ruyi was stunned immediately, only to feel the hot tears rolling down, stinging and itching on the skin.

Ruyi's face was full of tears, and the look in her eyes was only dark sadness and helplessness. "From the moment Ah Ji was taken to the emperor's side, I knew that my calamity was not over. He also said that the decree was sealed, and he was so favored, coupled with the words of others...... "She couldn't cry, she only felt that the pain in her heart was like a thousand-pound grinding disc crushed down one after another, almost grinding a heart that had collapsed into powder and scattering it in the wind, "Your Majesty...... I was suspected of being so much! ”

Hailan sobbed: "Everyone has a lot of money, and they have destroyed their bones, not to mention that now Shen Chang is the top of the emperor's pillow." The emperor was gullible for a while......"

I thought that I had fallen to the bottom of the abyss, but I didn't expect that there was an abyss, like the eighteenth layer of hell, which would fall down heavily, and there would be no possibility of transcendence. It turns out that the so-called road of life is not only forward and backward, but also falls like this, falling to a miserable place that even you can't imagine. Ruyi was infinitely sad, and said with a wry smile: "It's credulous for a while, but it's good to believe it...... If you don't believe it, no matter how much others say, it's useless! ”

While he was talking, he saw that Li Yu had already come over to deliver the decree, and the Yanxi Palace became more and more chaotic, and the palace people hurt themselves and cried. Li Yu said impatiently: "What are you crying about, the little master has been demoted to a concubine, so naturally you don't have to stay in Yanxi Palace to serve." Give me all the way out, and as for the way to go in the future, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will arrange it for you. ”

For a while, the palace people all retreated. Taking advantage of the absence of outsiders, Hailan said in a low voice: "Gonggong Li, is there any way to turn this matter around?" ”

Li Yu said with a bitter face: "Little master, things can't be turned around. The emperor said that no one could persuade him. In addition, Ah Zhen ......" He patted his face and said in a low voice: "Shen Chang is almost the favorite of the special room, the emperor often asks her to accompany her, and others can't say anything." ”

Hailan said: "But is it because the eldest brother has angered the emperor? ”

Li Yu hurriedly said: "That's not it. Little master, while only the slave is there now, tomorrow it will be the slave who will send the little master into the cold palace, some gold and silver are soft, the little master will pack it up, and when he arrives in a place like the cold palace, there is also a place to use money! ”

Before he finished speaking, he heard the door of the palace "squeak" and was pushed open, and Sanbao and Xinxin came in crying and knelt down and said: "Little master, the slave and the maid have discussed with the three treasures, and the slave and the maid will not go anywhere, just follow the three treasures to the cold palace to serve the little master." ”

Ruyi wept and said, "You guys are crazy, what are you going to do there with me?" If you stay outside, you can find a good master to serve. ”

Li Yu said: "No, don't be confused. ”

I cried in my heart: "The slave knows that her life is cheap, and if she stays outside, she is only despised by others, and she is willing to follow the little master." The slave maid said that she would serve the little master for the rest of her life. ”

Sanbao also said: "The minions also followed." ”

Li Yu thought for a while and said: "Although the little master has been abolished as a concubine, there can't be no one to take care of in the cold palace, and it's okay to take one with you." Not to mention anything else, didn't Xin Xin and Ah Zhen always get along in the past, leaving her outside, just afraid of more grievances. ”

Ruyi wiped her tears and said, "That's good." No matter how bitter the cold palace is, it's always better to follow me. As for the Three Treasures...... she glanced at Hailan who was Qi Qiran: "You will follow the Hai Guiren and serve the Hai Guiren from now on." ”

Hailan was about to speak, but Ruyi blocked and said: "I know you want to refuse, but there are only Ye Xin and Chunxi by your side, and Sanbao is by your side, and you can take care of it more." She couldn't help but burst into tears: "From now on, we can't get it if we want to rely on each other and help each other...... You...... Take good care of yourself. ”

Li Yu said: "Slaves can't stay longer. That heart, you accompany the little master to clean up, and tomorrow the slave will send the little master away. He stretched out his hand and asked Yonghuang: "Big brother, according to the will, the slave has to send you to the pure concubine Niangniang now." ”

Yonghuang's face was full of tears, and he only pulled Ruyi's sleeve and was reluctant, Ruyi let go of his hand with tears in her eyes, and said forcibly: "Go, live well." Remember, don't look back when you get out of here, don't. Don't talk about your mother to anyone again, you know? ”

Yonghuang cried and walked out, and sure enough, he didn't look back. Ruyi's tears flowed: "What an obedient child." ”

Li Yu said sadly: "The little master even loves the eldest brother so much, and the slave really doesn't believe that the little master will harm other people's children." ”

Ruyi pressed the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes: "There is no need to say anything." Li Yu, fortunately you are still by the emperor's side, if you still remember that I once supported you, then one day, in the case of protecting yourself, when you can help, you must help, don't let me die in the cold palace and not be blind. ”

Li Yu knelt down and kowtowed: "The slave will always remember who drugged the slave and who secretly pulled the slave to this position." ”

Ruyi nodded and said, "It's good that you know." It's not easy for you to sit in this position, how did Wang Qin fall back then, and now you have to be careful yourself. ”

Li Yu burst into tears of gratitude: "The slave has no other ability, but he will do his best to keep the little master safe in the cold palace." ”

Ruyi was silent for a moment: "Then you can do me another favor, I want to see the emperor one last time." ”

Li Yu was stunned, so he had to nod.

When Ruyi saw the emperor again, it was already dusk, and the palace of nourishing the heart had not yet been lit, and the hall was a faint golden-red afterglow, from light and shadow to light. The emperor's tone couldn't hear a trace of sadness and joy, he just lowered his head and practiced calligraphy, and didn't look at her: "The matter has been decided, what are you going to do when you come to see me?" ”

Ruyi looked up at the emperor: "The concubine is destined to go to the cold palace, but in the end, she has not given up, she must come and ask the emperor." Your Majesty, do you believe that there is justice in the world? ”

The Emperor looked at her as if he were an ordinary stranger, but his tone was solemn: "I believe it." ”

Ruyi looked at the emperor as if she wanted to find something out of his face. However, she knew that her path was given by him, and she could no longer see what was coming.

The belief in my heart was gradually shaken, and I had a stabbed doubt. But she forced herself to leave nothing if she didn't even believe in herself.

In the midst of the dazed vacillation and sorrow, Ruyi bowed down three times, looking sad and calm: "For the emperor's words, the concubine is willing to be punished and live in the cold palace for a long time." I only want the emperor to be blessed and healthy, and he will be happy every year. ”

Ruyi got up slowly, brushed away the dust on her body, and turned around to leave like a cloud of birth.

The emperor looked at her, crumpled up the written banner, threw it on the ground, and slowly sat down on the dragon chair.

After the palace people dispersed, Yanxi Palace was already cold, and the concubine's inscriptions, golden seals, and auspicious clothes were all taken away, and the ground was messy and cold, which made people unbearable. Hailan was also left in the apse and was not allowed to step into the main hall of Yanxi Palace for half a step.

Yi Xin silently accompanied Ruyi, wrapped some intimate clothes and valuable jewelry together, thought about hiding the money and jewelry in the deepest part of the burden, and took some pastries and put them away: "When I arrive in the cold palace, I am afraid that I will not have enough food and clothing, so I have to prepare something." ”

Ruyi watched her clean up little by little, and said: "What do you do with those snacks, I have prepared for tomorrow, and I will have to live those hard days the day after tomorrow." It's better to pack some clothes. ”

I said yes, and went to open the cage and repack my clothes.

was busy, only listening to the long sound of the palace door being pushed open, Ruyi didn't admit that there would be someone coming to Yanxi Palace at this moment, and when he turned around, he saw that it was Cheng Gonggong beside the Queen Mother, and he said in a dumb voice: "The Queen Mother summons, Wulanala clan, come with me." ”

looked at Ruyi worriedly, not knowing what the blessings and misfortunes were. If Yiqiang has set his mind, things have been so bad that things can be done?

She said, "Won't I be too eye-catching if I go like this?" ”

Cheng's father-in-law Nunu said, "Hurry up and change into your palace maid's clothes and come with me." ”

Ruyi thought about it, so she took the palace people's clothes and put them on, and combed them into the palace people's buns, and took a closer look, it shouldn't be obvious to walk in the night.
