Chapter 190 Hug 2
Ruyi finally stood up, and seeing Han Xiangjian around her, she felt a lot more at ease.
Rong Pei was so frightened that her face turned pale and she immediately covered Lingzhi's mouth.
Ruyi subconsciously explained to Han Xiangjian, "I didn't stand firmly for a moment, but I'm fine now. You can go back to Baoyue Tower first. Rongpei, let's go back to Yikun Palace too!"
Han Xiangjian didn't say anything, just nodded and left.
Seeing that the Twelfth Prince was not coming back for a long time, Hai Lan sent someone to pick him up, when she saw the Twelfth Prince running in, drunk and looking shattered.
After listening to what the twelfth prince said, Hai Lan knew that something bad was going to happen, so she sent someone to appease the twelfth prince, and she went to the Yikun Palace herself.
As soon as Ruyi returned to Yikun Palace, Hailan arrived.
"Sister, I heard from Yongqi that you used private punishment on a palace maid, and you were hugging Ling Yunche? What the hell is going on?!"
Ruyi had calmed down by now and felt that she had just not stood firmly, so why should she be afraid of being seen?
Ruyi said, "When did I ever punish Lingzhi? It was Lingzhi, the dog slave, who teamed up with Concubine Ling to set a trap for me. She made a lot of noise and shouted loudly in places where concubines must pass by, ruining the reputation of me and Ling Yunche!"
When Hai Lan heard that Ruyi had really met Ling Yunche, she felt that something bad had happened.
"What? Sister, you knew that the emperor didn't like Ling Yunche, so why did you go to see him in private? Now that Lingzhi has made such a fuss, many people have seen it. Now it's even harder to explain!"
Ruyi didn't care, "Yongji was drunk. When he sobers up, I will explain it to him. As for Rongfei, she will never tell anyone, you can rest assured."
"As for Lingzhi, this person has the intention to kill her. I will never let her go this time! Rong Pei, send Lingzhi to the Ministry of Punishment for trial immediately. Make sure to find out who is behind this!"
Hai Lan said: "Lingzhi dared to do this, she must have an accomplice. Maybe the scene in the imperial garden was not only seen by Yongji and Rong Fei. The most urgent thing is that sister should block the news and never let the emperor and Ling Guifei know about this!"
Ruyi said, "Lingzhi, that dog slave, has always spoken for Concubine Ling. She is definitely Concubine Ling's supporter. I believe Concubine Ling has already told the emperor. I want to find evidence that Concubine Ling is colluding with Lingzhi to frame me and Ling Yunche before the emperor arrives!"
Hai Lan felt that Ruyi's analysis made sense, but she always felt something was wrong.
"Sister, why don't you do both? Even if this is a misunderstanding, it won't sound good if it gets out. We should block the news as soon as possible."
Ruyi said, "Even if the emperor hears about it, what does it matter? I didn't do it, and Han Xiangjian is here. She will testify for me."
Hai Lan couldn't persuade Ruyi, so she had to block the news herself.
But before Hailan could leave Yikun Palace, Jinzhong had already arrived at Yikun Palace and asked Ruyi to go to Yongshou Palace for questioning.
Ruyi sneered at Hailan and said, "My guess was right. Only an hour has passed and Concubine Ling is already impatient and has brought the matter to the attention of His Majesty!"
"Rong Pei, go to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation in person and produce evidence as soon as possible!"
The emperor was very happy today and drank a lot of wine. After the concubines left, Yan Wan was ready to help the emperor go to bed.
But who would have thought that someone came to report to the emperor that Ruyi punished a palace maid in the imperial garden for a eunuch.
At first, the emperor did not think about Ling Yunche. Like Yan Wan, the emperor was busy with all kinds of affairs and had long forgotten about Ling Yunche.
The emperor hasn't mentioned Ruyi on his own initiative for a long time, and he doesn't want to have any communication with Ruyi.
It seems that since Ruyi became the queen, there have been many quarrels between the two.
When the emperor suddenly heard about Ruyi, his mood instantly became bad.
Yan Wan said, "Your Majesty is tired. This is not a big deal. Why don't you take a rest first and deal with it tomorrow?"
The emperor nodded and wanted to take a rest. At this moment, the eunuch who served the twelfth prince ran to Yongshou Palace in a panic.
Chunchan came in and reported, "Your Majesty, Madam, the eunuch next to the twelfth prince came and said that the twelfth prince was frightened in the imperial garden and wanted to ask an imperial physician to see him."
The emperor said irritably, "The Imperial Garden again? What happened in the Imperial Garden? Call him in!"
Yan Wan also said: "The twelfth prince has been frightened. Wang Chan, go and ask the imperial physician to go to the Yanxi Palace!"
The young eunuch entered the inner hall of Yongshou Palace, knelt on the ground and greeted, "Your servant greets the emperor! You greet the imperial concubine Ling!"
The emperor asked, "What happened?"
The young eunuch trembled as he said to the emperor, "The twelfth prince was in high spirits today and drank a few more cups. The imperial concubine wanted to send eunuch Wang Chan to escort the twelfth prince back to the Yanxi Palace. Later, the imperial concubine Rong said she would send him back, so we followed the imperial concubine Rong."
"As soon as we reached the Red Plum Grove in the Imperial Garden, we vaguely heard a maid kneeling down to apologize. Seeing that the 12th Prince was a little drunk, Concubine Rong didn't want to meddle in other people's business. But who knew that the kneeling maid suddenly yelled loudly, and the 12th Prince heard someone mention the Emperor and him, so he turned around to look."
"But, but, we all saw it. Over there is the Empress and a eunuch. They are hugging each other!"
Hearing this, the Emperor sobered up a bit, sat up with a bang, and asked with a gloomy face: "Eunuch? Is it Ling Yunche?!"
Although the young eunuch was frightened by the emperor's expression, his mind and words were still clear.
"Yes! I have been serving the twelfth prince all my life. In the past, it was Ling Yunche who escorted the twelfth prince to and from school. I am sure that eunuch is him!"
Yan Wan was surprised and asked, "Could it be that you were too far away and saw it wrongly?"
The young eunuch said with certainty: "Although we were about ten meters apart, I couldn't have been mistaken. They were hugging each other for quite a while!"
Hug each other? How did Han Xiangjian and Lingzhi do it? Ruyi and Ling Yunche were at a loss for words.
When the emperor heard this, he was furious: "Is there such a thing? Where is the queen, where is Ling Yunche, and who is that maid?"
Jinzhong had already found out everything, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the maid is Lingzhi, who used to work in Yikun Palace and now works as a manager in Sizhiku. After the incident, the empress asked Xiao Lingzi to return to the flower room, and took Lingzhi back to Yikun Palace."
The emperor was even more angry. "After something like this happened, she didn't come to Yongshou Palace to apologize to me, but dared to go back to Yikun Palace with a clear conscience? Isn't Xiao Lingzi working in the flower room? Why did she run to the Imperial Garden? What does this have to do with Lingzhi from the Sizhiku?"
Jinzhong quickly told the emperor the whole story he had learned, and the emperor was immediately furious.
"The queen is so considerate of her servants! Jinzhong, go to Yikun Palace now and bring the queen, Lingzhi, and Ling Yunche to me. I want to interrogate them in person!"
