The closer I am to the Emperor, the nobler I am in this palace. The Emperor is the center, and everyone has to circle around the Emperor. But will there come a day when I don't want to turn around anymore? I want to hide in a corner and live the rest of my life in peace and tranquility?
The next day, Xuan Ye fulfilled two of his promises. First, he personally went to the Yikun Palace to see Ruo Lan. Second, he conferred Ruo Lan the title of nobility.
This was the sweetest smile she had seen in Ruo Lan in a long time, as if he had gone back to the very beginning. That naive girl who had wholeheartedly wanted to see the Emperor, thinking about how he was already very satisfied when he saw the Emperor after agreeing to meet him for so long, what was there to be dissatisfied about? He really didn't mind that Xuan Ye had coldly ignored her, but what she did mind was that the Emperor hadn't come to see Ruo Lan in the first place, and now that the Emperor was here, she was relieved.
From Xuan Ye's point of view, Ruo Lan's spirit had clearly improved a lot, and she could now joke around with Rong'er and Wei'er. However, the royal doctors didn't have much luck with Ruo Lan, and the most important thing was that Ruo Lan's body couldn't move, so the royal doctors spoke in a very complicated manner. To Rong'er, Ruo Lan might not be able to live much longer, and right now, she was most likely in her final days.
The best medicinal materials were used by the Imperial Hospital. When Xuan Ye arrived here and truly saw Yin Ruo Lan lying in bed, unable to move, Xuan Ye's heart was deeply moved; he was deeply moved by his kindness and self-sacrifice, and in the face of such grief, Yin Ruo Lan actually didn't utter a single word of complaint or dissatisfaction. He also knew from the Imperial Physician that Ruo Lan's condition wasn't very good, after all, she was the woman who had accompanied him here for so many years.
When he asked Rong'er if she wanted to go with him, Rong'er naturally refused. She had to stay by his side, and the imperial concubine and the Imperial Concubine De had to take care of him, so this time, Xuan Ye left the palace alone without any concubines.
Nearly a month after Xuan Ye left, the Imperial Concubine De from Yonghe Palace became pregnant again. The Emperor's previous company had caused Xuande to become pregnant with Long Zi, and when she found out about this news, she sighed with emotion beside Rong'er, "I sometimes feel that Imperial Concubine De is not a simple person, she is smarter than you, Imperial Concubine Yi and others."
Rong'er was currently feeding the medicine to Ruo Lan, and Ruo Lan didn't have much of a reaction to this news. Rong'er raised his head to look at Yu'er, and said softly, "Yin is dead, Xuande is sad, it isn't normal for the emperor to accompany the emperor. After Yin Yu died, wasn't there someone in Imperial Concubine Yi very soon?
"I don't know why, but I always felt that something was wrong. I always thought that Imperial Concubine De gave people a strong feeling in the past, and was always very strong, but this time it has become especially weak and relied on the emperor. During that time, when Sixth Brother was sick to the afterlife, the emperor wasn't always accompanying him at Yonghe Palace day and night. It was said that the moment the Emperor left his side, Imperial Concubine De would faint, become ill, and become extremely weak. In the past few days, she has often come to visit Ruo Lan, and she has interacted a lot with her. Ling Jiao'er thoughtfully said.
"Look at you, what are you talking about!" "Isn't that normal? Although she gave birth to two Ah Gou, the Fourth Ah Gou and the Imperial Noble Concubine Yi are even more intimate. Only Yin Xun is her heart's flesh and blood, so it's normal for her to be sad to the point of changing her personality." Rong'er finished feeding Ruo Lan her medicine, wiped her mouth, and smiled at Ruo Lan with satisfaction.
"Thank you elder sister." Rowland thanked Rong'er gratefully, and though the women of the palace could do these things, as long as Rong'er was here she had always come to feed him herself. At first she would refuse, but when she found out that it was Rong'er's wish, she did not refuse him any more.
Xiu-Er forced a smile and said, "That's right. Anyway, this has nothing to do with me. In the end, I still haven't been able to train Ruo Lan's calmness."
Rong'er stood up with a smile, "Imperial Concubine De has a dragon heir, I should go take a look. Ruo Lan will be troubling you to take care of her." He turned his head to look at Ruo Lan. "Ruo Lan, rest well. I'll be back soon." Rong'er led Xiao Qing out of the room.
The moment they stepped out of the room, Xiaoqing said in a low voice, "Master, I think that the spirit promise is reasonable. If it weren't for Imperial Concubine De pestering the emperor with Ah Gou's death, the Emperor wouldn't have ignored you."
Rong'er shook his head. He turned around and seriously said to Xiao Qing, "Xiao Qing, don't talk about this in this palace. It's not good for others to hear it." Rong'er actually knew in his heart that Xuande was a smart girl. This was something that she had already seen before Xuande entered the palace, but the only difference was that she believed that Xuande's intelligence wouldn't be used to harm others. That was enough. Nothing else mattered. It was her fortune that she could get the emperor to pamper her. It was also her skill. Jealousy couldn't go against his will. This time, her previous love for Yin Qi made her feel a certain sadness.
When Rong'er arrived at Yonghe Palace, Xuande was leaning against a hot brick bed, basking in the sunlight. She looked to be in good health, and when she saw Rong'er enter, she quickly smiled and greeted, "Big sister Rong, you're here."
Rong'er replied, "That's right, I heard that little sister had a dragon son, so she came over to offer her congratulations."
After the incident, it did not affect Rong'er and Xuande's relationship at all. Xuande was a person with strong ideas, and he knew that she could not blame Rong'er for his actions, and if one were to say that she was responsible for her own actions, she had allowed Yin to only allow a single eunuch to accompany her to seek his help, so it was normal for her to return with only a single eunuch. This was something that she understood, and as for Xuan Ye being angry at him, she definitely would not use this opportunity to talk about Rong'er in front of Xuan Ye, because she knew that Xuan Ye was just angry for a moment, and really would not blame Rong'er for his actions.
When she saw how injured Ruo Lan was in order to save Yin He, she felt very uncomfortable in her heart, so she often visited Ying Kun Palace for the past few days. It was just that she felt a little uncomfortable during these two days and didn't go over, but today, she had invited a doctor to treat her, only then did she find out that Long Si had appeared again.
"Sister Rong, I was feeling unwell these few days, so I didn't go over. How is the Venerable Yin?" I'm really worried about her. " Xuande asked with concern.
"It's still the same. I can't tell if it's good or bad, but the sky is getting hotter and hotter. If Lan can't move, I really don't know how much longer she can hold on." Rong'er said sadly.
"Honorable Yin is truly kind. It's only right that she didn't save Yin. However, she ignored her own safety to protect Yin." Xuan De sighed and said faintly, "I feel that I owe that noble Yin."
"It's her nature for Ruo Lan to do such things. You don't owe her anything." Rong'er shook his head and smiled, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Now that you're pregnant, you must be happy. It's very important. Back then, when I was pregnant with Changhua, I was depressed because of the sudden death of my longevity. So the most important thing is to be happy. "
"Yes, Sister Rong. I understand. I will work hard to make myself happy." Xuan De docilely nodded as she replied.
Rong'er smiled. "Your Majesty will definitely be very happy to know that you have a child again."
"I hope he's a brother." Xuande gently caressed her belly with a faint smile. "I will love him as much as I love him."
Seeing the blissful smile on Xuande's face, Rong'er truly felt a bit envious of Xuande's youth. The feeling of being prepared to welcome the birth of a child was truly blissful, but unfortunately, she no longer had the chance …
After leaving Yonghe Palace, Rong'er unintentionally looked to the side and stopped to ask Xiaoqing, "Xiaoqing, that's Yanghong, right?"
Yes, Mistress. I heard that the Yanxi Palace was a cold palace back in the previous dynasty. It's said that only the most unfavoured concubines would be arranged here, because this place is very far from the emperor, the empress dowager, and the empress dowager. Normally, very few people would pay attention to this place. Little Qing quickly explained.
Rong'er didn't say anything, only staring fixedly at the front of the palace before pointing at a building in front of the palace, "Xiao Qing, isn't that the Yu Qing palace where the crown prince lives? And just ahead of us is where the brothers live, right? "
"Yes, Mistress, that's right." Little Qing was very familiar with the palace, so she had a rough idea of the general direction.
"At least this place is close to the children." Rong'er mumbled softly, turned around and walked towards the palanquin.
Xiao Qing sighed, "What's the use of being near a child? Aside from the Peace Palace, the best place in this palace is the Cheng Gan Palace that you live in, Yi Kun Palace and Imperial Noble Concubine Yi's. It's the closest to the emperor's chambers!"
Rong'er lightly curled his lips, smiling as he entered the palanquin. "Go back to the palace, go to Ruo Lan!" He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. That's right, in this palace, the Emperor is the center. However … Why did she suddenly get tired of this kind of focus?
