I just want to live a happy life

Chapter 422 Gao Xiyue 21

Lianxin stopped.

Everyone looked at Ruyi's anxious expression and knew what was going on. It seemed that Lianxin was telling the truth.

But Lian Xin just paused for a moment, and then continued: "I plan to let this servant lead Wang Qin to Yonghe Palace."

When they heard the word Yonghe Palace, everyone present looked at Bai Ruiji at the same time, because Bai Ruiji lived in Yonghe Palace.

Bai Ruiji also noticed something, and her expression was no longer relaxed, but gloomy.

Lian Xin: "Empress Xian has already calculated the time. She already knows that Mei Changzai will definitely come out at that time. When the time comes, I will lead Wang Qin to Yonghe Palace, and Wang Qin will definitely pounce on Mei Changzai."

"The Emperor will have lunch with Empress Xian at the Yanxi Palace today. When he comes to the Yanxi Palace, he will definitely see Concubine Mei being flirted with by Wang Qin."

"By then, the emperor will surely be furious, and then punish Wang Qin. He will also be disgusted with Mei Changzai, and he will also help me get rid of Wang Qin."

"This is Empress Xian's plan."

When Bai Ruiji thought about how Wang Qin had originally thrown himself at her and how she was the one being flirted with by Wang Qin, she could no longer control her temper. She stood up, walked to Ruyi's side, and slapped her in the face: "Bitch!"

The emperor quickly ordered Bai Ruiji to be taken away, without any intention of blaming her.

Although Bai Ruiji was being pulled, she still looked at Ruyi viciously, as if she would rush towards Ruyi again if given the chance.

Ruyi's head tilted when she was hit. She pouted and looked very aggrieved.

Everyone looked at Empress Xian. Although they looked at her with some contempt, they had to admit that it was indeed a good idea. However, it did not succeed, and she suffered the consequences of her own actions.

But at this time, there was still one person who didn't believe it, and that was Hai Lan. She believed from the bottom of her heart that her sister was not a deep-minded or vicious person, and that this idea was definitely not her sister's.

She stood up and helped Ruyi to speak: "Your Majesty, Empress, and Concubine Xian are not such people. There must be some misunderstanding."

The emperor looked at her coldly: "So what do you think the truth should be?"

Hai Lan lowered her head, but for her sister's sake, she still said, "Your Majesty, Lian Xin must be lying. Someone instigated her to say that."

Upon hearing this, the queen's face darkened. Lianxin was someone close to her, and Hailan was talking about her.

This Hai Lan really can't tell right from wrong. If she remembered correctly, she lived in Qixiang Palace. When the time comes, she will make sure Jin Yuyan teaches her well.

She really doesn't look like a concubine at all.

Hai Lan had no idea that she had offended Fu Cha Lang Ya, and she was still swearing that the emperor would clear Ru Yi's name.

At this time, the emperor was angry: "Shut up, I will make my own judgment on what happened. Who are you to dare to speak so shamelessly here? Go back and reflect on yourself."

Hai Lan closed her mouth, startled. She didn't dare to anger the emperor again. She could only look at Ruyi worriedly and go back.

Afterwards, the emperor looked at Ruyi and said, "Empress Xian, do you have anything else to say?"

Ruyi moved her lips, but her mind was blank and she couldn't say anything. She looked straight at the emperor, hoping that he could clear her name.

But the emperor misunderstood her meaning: "Well, since you have nothing to say and since you have made a mistake, you must be punished."

"Pass on my decree, Wang Qin, Lian Xin will be caned to death. From today onwards, there will be no more concubinage in the palace. If you do it again, I will punish you severely."

"Empress Xian..."

At this time, Ruyi spoke up: "Your Majesty, I have never done anything wrong. I am innocent."

The emperor ignored him. He was not blind. When Lianxin said those words just now, Ruyi's nervousness and guilt were seen by everyone.

What made him most angry in this matter was that Concubine Xian dared to use him. Was there anything that she couldn't tell him? Why did she have to do this?

She doesn't care about his face, so why should he give her face?

"Empress Xian, you will be demoted to Concubine Xian, and you will be required to reflect on your actions for one month and be fined one year's salary."

Ruyi was anxious: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. You can't do this to me, Your Majesty..."

But the emperor no longer wanted to listen to her at this time.

Bai Ruiji almost suffered an unexpected disaster, but the emperor compensated her and promoted her to a noble lady.

After that, the emperor left the Yanx Palace without looking back.

After the emperor left, the concubines had no interest in staying any longer, so they left in groups of three or four.

Gao Xiyue, who had been watching the show, looked at Ruyi mockingly and left.

Lianxin had been dragged away a long time ago. When she was dragged outside the Yanx Palace, she finally came to her senses. Thinking of what she had just said in the palace, a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on her back.

She cried, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what I just said was all lies, it was nonsense, please give me another chance..."

But no matter how she cried and screamed, the person who was dragging her did not let go and directly dragged her away and disposed of her.

Inside the Yanxi Palace, Ruyi sat on the ground in a daze. She didn't even take to heart the threats Bai Ruiji made to her before she left. All her attention was focused on what had just happened. She couldn't understand how things had developed to this point since she had clearly planned everything.

And Lianxin is such an ungrateful person. She was so kind to help her, but she was ungrateful and told everything to others.

What should she do in the future? What happened today must have spread throughout the palace. How will she live her life in the future?

The emperor demoted her to Concubine Xian and fined her one year's salary, which was a very shameful thing.

Hongli, you have such a cruel heart.

What Ruyi thought was correct. Today's incident quickly spread throughout the palace and everyone knew about it.

It was only after the emperor suppressed the matter that the news stopped spreading.

This incident had a significant impact. In the past, in the eyes of everyone, Empress Xian was born into a noble family and could only be admired from afar, but now she has fallen from the "altar".

Everyone's perception of her has changed greatly, saying that she is vicious, mean, and acts despicable.

All the bad words pressed on her heart.

Hai Lan, who always regarded Ruyi as a good sister, was very anxious and kept throwing silver to stop them from talking nonsense, but it was of no use.

There are so many people in the palace who hate Ruyi and want to step on her. Even though the emperor has suppressed the matter and doesn't talk about it on the surface, many people are still discussing it in private.

Hai Lan's jumping around annoyed Jin Yuyan, and Bai Ruiji, who was almost harmed by this incident.

After hearing Fu Cha Langya's hint, Jin Yuyan wanted her to teach Hai Lan a lesson, so she naturally did so.

Concubine Xian Ruyi was punished to reflect on herself for a month. She could not leave the palace, and Bai Ruiji naturally could not enter the Yanx Palace to teach her a lesson. She was worried that she had no place to vent her anger, but then Hai Lan bumped into her.
