Ruyi's Rebirth: Ruyi's Disease Retreat Retreat

Chapter 298: Strange Stone; Wei Yanwan's Determination

"How can I sleep well when something's wrong with the Empress? I heard there's been a lot of trouble in Xianfu Palace. If I don't show up, who knows who will harm your woman and child!"

Hongli sat down and said, "Rong Pei Sanbao, can you two tell me what happened today?"

Sanbao replied, "Your Majesty, your servant checked the surrounding area immediately. Look at this." As he said this, he took out a stone from his arms.

The stone looked strange and had moss growing on it. No wonder the eunuch carrying the sedan chair slipped.

"This is..." Zhen Huan narrowed her eyes, as if she had seen this thing somewhere.

"It was in a flowerpot. How did it end up in the corridor?"

Rong Pei: "There are many stones like this in the greenhouse. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack if you want to find them."

Hongli frowned, it seemed that someone was unable to sit still and dared to attack his Ruyi.

"Take those eunuchs who carried the sedan chair and throw them into the Ministry of Punishment and torture them severely. I doubt we can get anything out of them."

Zhen Huan reminded him, "Emperor, you are confused. What does it have to do with them? That road is the only way back to Yikun Palace. If they want to tamper with it, it would be very easy. What can you gain by interrogating those eunuchs? Instead, you let the real murderer go unpunished."

"But the person who harmed me wasn't smart enough. I remember I'd experienced this before."

Hongli then remembered that when Zhen Huan came back from Ganlu Temple that year, she was also framed and almost lost her unborn child.

"My Queen Mother, what do you think?"

Zhen Huan: "Investigate, we must get to the bottom of this matter."

Hongli nodded. He asked Li Yu to personally send Zhen Huan back to the Cining Palace, while he stayed with Ruyi.

In the Yongshou Palace.

Jinzhong asked Wei Yanwan, "Why did you take the initiative to serve her in bed?"

"Don't you hate him to death?"

Wei Yanwan looked at him calmly. After a long moment, she spoke, "I'm not doing this for myself. I want to make plans for Jingxuan's future."

"Then let's do it now and kill him!"

Wei Yanwan shook her head: "If killing him would have been useful, he would have died hundreds of times already!"

"Have you ever thought about Jingxuan? She is your biological daughter. If I am not favored, what will happen to Jingxuan in the future?

Do you want to watch her go to marry and then suffer in a foreign country?"

"Ling Yunche, could you please stop thinking only about yourself!"

Jinzhong was speechless. He had no way to refute. He lowered his head and burst into tears.

Wei Yanwan grabbed his hand and said, "I'm in pain and confused, but when I think of Jingxuan, I can't care about anything else. As long as she's well, as long as she can have a happy life, even if I have to die, I'm willing to fight for her."

"What about you? Can you do something for her instead of forcing me every day? I know you look down on me and think I'm unworthy, but you're even less worthy of her calling you Ama!"

Jinzhong hugged Wei Yanwan: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to you and Jingxuan. I didn't think enough, I was powerless, it's my fault, everything is my fault!"

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense! From now on, whether you like it or not, I will compete for his favor and try to please him. Just pretend you don't see it!"

Wei Yanwan wiped away her tears, raised her head and looked at him with a firm gaze.

Jinzhong finally compromised: "Let me help you, let me help you."
