TV Series: When the Villain Chooses to Stand by

Chapter 115 Fu Cha Lang Ya 115

The screen Hai Lan originally used was intended to slowly erode the queen's body.

But the Queen Mother's body had long been reduced to a hollow shell, and she loved this screen very much.

"Fujia, put this screen in front of me. Such fine embroidery is really rare. The phoenix is ​​embroidered beautifully."

The queen mother, who was exhausted from energy, was completely unaware of the danger.

Ruyi was afraid that if she said too much, it would arouse the empress dowager's suspicion, so she gave up after only a few words.

Less than a month later, the empress dowager died in her sleep, and this result seemed to be within Hongli's expectations.

He held a grand funeral for the empress dowager according to the rules.

To outsiders, he seemed to be a very filial son, who fainted several times due to excessive grief at the Queen Mother's funeral.

Only he himself knew that the mountain pressing down on his head had finally disappeared.

Bai Ruiji and the other two also breathed a sigh of relief.

Ruyi and Hailan comforted each other, hoping that this matter would pass peacefully.

Accidents always come unexpectedly. In order to demonstrate his magnanimity as an elder brother, Hongli specially allowed Prince Guo and Princess Roushu to enter the Cining Palace.

All the things that the Queen Mother had ever used were given to them as rewards.

At this time, the steward following Prince Guo discovered something unusual.

"Your Majesty, I smell a very strange smell, like medicinal herbs, but I'm not sure."

The Cining Palace has been closed for a long time, and the lingering fragrance from the screen becomes particularly obvious in this cold palace.

Hongzhou has always trusted this steward, who was given to him by his mother. He is very capable and proficient in medicine. He has helped him block countless plots over the years.

Roushu was also extremely surprised when she heard this. The two of them did not dare to say anything and searched the Cining Palace with their personal palace servants.

It wasn't long before they set their sights on the screen.

Hailan's little trick might be able to escape the attention of others, but this person had played high-end games with the Queen Mother. He chose the most inconspicuous place and took out the silk thread underneath with a few light touches.

Seeing him nod, Hongzhou immediately rushed out.

"I will tell my brother that there is such a person in the harem. How can he sit idly by and do nothing?"

The steward who knew everything hurriedly stopped the man, saying that this was the imperial palace.

The emperor's eyes are everywhere, and apart from anything else, he can't fool these people at the door.

The Queen Mother passed away, and he was the only one who knew the truth.

In order to prevent Hongzhou from having any murderous thoughts, he had been ordered to tell him the truth.

At this time, Hongzhou was stopped. Seeing that the manager did not dare to speak and just shook his head slightly, he also calmed down.

The cause of the Queen Mother's death must be investigated, but a suitable method must be chosen.

Finally, the brother and sister decided to send the screen to the emperor.

He may not care about the cause of the Queen Mother's death, but what if it involves his own safety?

The phoenix above is not something that ordinary people can use. Even for the sake of reputation, the emperor would not give this thing to others.

Given his personality, he would probably put it in front of himself to show his sorrow.

As expected, when Hongli heard that this was the screen that the Empress Dowager loved very much during her lifetime, he immediately said that he would keep it well.

It was placed in the most conspicuous place so that every minister who came in to discuss matters could see it.

After knowing this, Langya laughed for a long time. After all the twists and turns, it was Hongli who suffered the most.

The heroine seemed to have a grudge against him.

He is worthy of being the protagonist who loves and hates each other throughout his life.

Ruyi thought the matter was over, but when she came to see Hongli with chicken soup, she was suddenly startled.

The boiling hot chicken soup in her hand fell to the ground, and the splashing hot soup burned her badly.

She wanted to step back to avoid it, but the bottom of the flowerpot on her feet was too high, making it inconvenient for her to move. She accidentally fell heavily to the ground, and also knocked down惢心 who came forward to help her.

Hongli felt his eyes hurt as he watched the farce in front of him.

He couldn't remember the last time he had a good conversation with Ruyi.

It was chicken soup again. The Queen Mother was given chicken soup at the late Emperor's funeral. Now, not long after the Queen Mother's funeral, she brought chicken soup again.

It won’t be over until they, mother and son, are nailed to the pillar of shame, right?

Who in the imperial kitchen is so bold?

"emperor!"

Ruyi's sad voice did not arouse Hongli's sympathy.

"Hasn't Rong Pei been released to you? What are you doing today?"

Ruyi endured the pain in her ankle and stood up. She looked at Hongli with grievance and complained, "Why does Your Majesty treat me like this?"

"When did you and I become what we are today?"

Hongli held his forehead helplessly. He had a lot of things to do and really didn't have time to chat with Ruyi about these illusory feelings every day.

"Princess Xian, go back to your own palace and reflect on what you took. The Queen Mother treated you so well when she was alive, is this how you show your filial piety?"

Only then did Ruyi realize what mistake she had made.

"I was just thinking about the importance of the emperor's health, and I couldn't care about anything else at the moment."

"Alright, alright, hurry back and take good care of the princess and the fifth prince."

Hongli waved his hand impatiently, not wanting to hear more from Ruyi.

This attitude made Ruyi's anger explode instantly, "Your Majesty, I only have you in my heart, but you only have this one thing to say every time you see me."

"Is the princess more important than me?"

Hongli was so upset when he heard this. How could this be said by a concubine?

"what do you want to say in the end?"

"I feel that the Eighth Princess' fate is incompatible with her parents. I would like to ask Your Majesty to make a decision and send the princess out of the palace and hand her over to Prince Heqin to be raised."

"Bastard!"

Hongli slammed the table in anger. He really didn't expect Ruyi to say such a thing.

"Jingsi is my daughter. When did it become your turn to talk nonsense here? She and her parents are incompatible? Who is the one who is so reckless as to say this?"

"You are just a concubine, yet you made up your mind for me and wanted to send my daughter out of the palace. Who gave you the courage?"

"explain!!!"

Hongli's anger still frightened Ruyi, and she stammered and told her all her guesses.

"Your Majesty, I am only worried about how you will be affected. I am only worried about my husband's safety. Is that wrong?"

In Ruyi's view, she values ​​Hongli more than her daughter, which is the embodiment of love, which is noble and great.

Prove that she is not like others who give birth to children just to consolidate their status.

But not everyone can accept such a strange view.

The mother does not love the child she gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy. If Hongli had not witnessed Ruyi giving birth with his own eyes, he would have suspected that this daughter was adopted from outside.

"As an unkind mother, I truly regret leaving Yongqi in your care. Jingsi is also unlucky."

"emperor!"

"What are you shouting about! Does being loud mean you're right?"

"Your Majesty, have you ever heard of the story of Lan Yin Xu Guo? This is how it is between me and Your Majesty. In the end, only I will remember this affection."

"And you are no longer the Hongli of the past."
