Deep in the palace, the queen was confused by A Ruo's treatment, so she asked the emperor to make a decision.The emperor made an unexpected decision and asked A Ruo to stay with him.This decision not only surprised the queen, but also Aruo herself.
At the same time, Mei Guiren broke into Yanxi Palace while Hai Guiren was away. She was resentful because her child was killed by Ruyi.She picked up the whip and whipped Ruyi herself to vent her anger.After hearing the news, Xing Xin came and promptly stopped Mei Guiren's violent behavior.Although Ruyi felt aggrieved, in the face of Mei Guiren's scolding, she could only insist that she had not done that thing.After Mei Guiren vented her anger, she left angrily.Soon, Hai Guiren took his eldest brother back to Yanxi Palace. The eldest brother saw that Ruyi was injured all over his body and wanted to report it to the emperor, but was stopped by Ruyi.She knew that with her current situation, even if she called the imperial doctor, no one would be willing to come for treatment.
In another corner of the palace, Jia Guiren went to visit Yi Guiren.Yi Guiren originally had doubts about the cause of her child's death, but under Jia Guiren's instigation, she began to believe that Ruyi was the enemy who killed her child.Therefore, Yi Guiren took Safflower Achyranthes Decoction all day long, hoping to remove the remaining poison from her body, but failed, which also meant that it would be difficult for her to get pregnant again in the future.Jia Guiren showed off her pregnancy in front of Yi Guiren, which made Yi Guiren miss her child even more and hate Ruyi even more intensely.
Jia Guiren then went to Yangxin Hall and told the emperor the news of her pregnancy, which made the emperor feel relieved.After the imperial concubine learned that Jia Guiren was pregnant, she felt anxious. She was worried that her status would be threatened, so she wanted to get rid of Jia Guiren's child.However, after Mo Xin's persuasion, she gave up the idea.Mo Xin reminded her that Jia Gui's birth would not increase the power of the Queen and Concubine Xian, but might instead be an opportunity.The imperial concubine lamented that she had become ruthless and began to plan to kill the prince.
On the other hand, the Queen Mother criticized Mei Guiren's behavior and believed that it was inappropriate for her to take action before the emperor had dealt with Ruyi.She ordered Mei Guiren to go back and reflect.After losing her son, Mei Guiren developed a red syndrome, which made it difficult for her to serve the emperor in the future.Seeing that Gui Mei was in poor health and short-sighted, the Queen Mother decided to look for an official woman of the right age among the old ministers who were close to her as a candidate.
After Ruyi fell out of favor, the queen even removed the guards of Yanxi Palace, making Yanxi Palace very unstable.Late one night, Yi Guiren walked into Ruyi's room and planned to hurt her with a hairpin.Fortunately, Hai Guiren arrived in time and stopped Yi Guiren's behavior.Later, Hai Guiren reported to the emperor that Mei Guiren and Yi Guiren had hurt Ruyi.Although the emperor sent people to guard Yanxi Palace, he did not deal with Yi Guiren and Mei Guiren.
The emperor told Ah Ruo that he liked to listen to her and asked her if she thought she was a betrayer of the Lord.The emperor said that as long as Ah Ruo never forgets her true heart, no one will think of her like this.At this time, news came from Li Yu that Yi Guiren had passed away due to postpartum disorders. The emperor felt sorry for this and ordered that Yi Guiren be made a concubine.Ah Ruo comforted the emperor and said that fortunately Jiagui was pregnant, and the emperor had hope for a successor.The emperor expressed his intention to make Aruo the permanent resident of Shen and live in the palace of concubines.The queen ordered people to take good care of Yi Guiren's family.
The imperial concubine's dissatisfaction with A Ruo is getting worse day by day, but the queen comforts her by saying that A Ruo's Ama works under the imperial concubine's A Ma, so the imperial concubine can hold A Ruo hostage.In addition, the imperial concubine can also arrange servants to serve around A Ruo.When Ah Ruo came to Jia's palace, Jia's concubine reminded her that if Ruyi regained her favor, she would be killed.Ah Ruo obeyed the order of the palace maid beside the Queen Mother to send a plate of pastries to Ruyi, but the plate of pastries was intercepted by Fujia who was beside the Queen Mother.The Queen Mother expressed dissatisfaction with this blatant behavior and proposed that Ruyi be demoted to a commoner and imprisoned in the cold palace.The emperor thought the move was too hasty, but the queen mother said that if Ruyi was wronged, the matter would be widely implicated.In the end, the emperor decided to adopt the Queen Mother's suggestion and confine Ruyi to the cold palace to protect her.
