Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Wanwan's Daily Advancement

Chapter 141 Hongli Can’t Understand

Yanwan was sleeping soundly. In the next room, Ruyi was so angry that she was shaking all over. She didn't even dare to faint, let alone sleep.

"Your Majesty has always claimed to be fair, so why did you insist on killing Ling Yunche even though he saved my life? Why on earth did you insist on doing this? Do you always want me to be someone who repays kindness with enmity?"

Hongli took a deep breath and said, "I have already said that he touched your chest in public."

Ruyi blushed and bit her lip as she said, "It was forced by the situation. It was to save me. Does the emperor want me to die more than these insignificant things?"

Hongli looked at her disappointedly: "You insist on saying that Ling Yunche saved you, and you want to protect Ling Yunche in everything, but it was me who ordered the guards to take care of you!... He even touched your chest today, and you were tugging at him on the dock... Have you ever thought that your inappropriate behavior will make me a laughing stock for the world?"

Ruyi shook her head, also with a look of disappointment on her face: "Your Majesty, you can't kill Ling Yunche. He saved me, so he is a meritorious official. If you kill him, what will the world think? In the future, who will dare to work for the royal family?"

Hongli rubbed his aching head, not understanding why he had to bring her here and say so many useless words.

He frowned, and tried to suppress the pity that shouldn't have been in his heart: "He saved you, so he deserves a big reward. Then reward him as the chief eunuch in your palace. But he didn't know the severity of the situation and touched you. I'm a king, so I'll break his right hand as a punishment."

Ruyi exclaimed, "Your Majesty!"

She pouted, "Ling Yunche was originally an imperial guard with a promising future. Becoming a eunuch is bad enough. You want him to be the chief eunuch. Isn't that going to make people laugh at him?"

Hongli looked at Ruyi's innocent face and sometimes really doubted what was in her mind.

How did she portray the promotion as an insult to Ling Yunche?

Ling Yunche had already become a eunuch, so it was impossible for him to grow back to be a guard again. Naturally, the higher he climbed, the easier it would be. But she actually refused on his behalf.

Is she really too naive, or does she simply like to suppress Ling Yunche and make him rely on her alone?

Hongli was very tired, and followed Ruyi's words and said lightly: "Since you don't want him to be promoted, then give him all your profits this month as a reward for him saving you."

As soon as he said this, the awkward feeling in his heart suddenly disappeared, and the depressed and irritable mood that had been there before seemed to be smoothed out by something invisible.

He paused, felt it carefully, and said slowly: "Ruyi, I also know that you have been wronged..."

As soon as he said this, his body felt more relaxed, and he was fully aware of where that comfort came from - it was as if there was a pair of invisible hands pressing his head to make peace with Ruyi and bow his head, otherwise he would be unhappy and uneasy.

Hongli: “…”

His face turned black, then red, then blue. As the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, he actually experienced the feeling of forcing a good woman into prostitution and felt the same pain.

Seeing the shyness on Ruyi's face when she heard his words, he stood up suddenly and wanted to kick the woman three meters away.

But his body wouldn't allow him to do that.

He just felt his head buzzing and his stomach ached with anger: "Ruyi..."

He endured the humiliation and spoke slowly, because he needed to test her while speaking: "Although I also know that you were plotted against, you murdered the heir to the throne and almost killed Yan Wan. I have no choice but to punish you to prove the palace rules."

Ruyi's eyebrows were no longer raised, and she was obviously comforted by his words.

She was even very docile: "Your Majesty, I know it's not easy for you. For your sake, I am willing to suffer and don't care about other people's opinions. I just want to help you share your worries."

Hongli: "...Ruyi, you have worked so hard."

He looked at Ruyi with complicated eyes, and for a moment he wondered if there was something wrong with his brain. Otherwise, why would he feel that Ruyi just liked being suppressed and bullied by him?

But as long as he followed Ruyi's general wishes, the awkward feeling in his body would disappear immediately, and it would be that kind of... I can't resist, so I shouldn't resist, I just have to go along with it and become a prostitute, and then I would just lie down and feel numb.

Although he felt sick in his heart, his body actually felt really comfortable.

Hongli: “…”

He hurriedly said to Ruyi: "That's it, you go back to confinement and don't come out until you return to the capital! Remember, if you come out, I will be in great trouble."

A shy look appeared on Ruyi's pale face: "As long as Your Majesty believes in me and stops being jealous, I will do anything!"

She seemed very happy. She was already in her thirties and almost forty years old, but she blushed like a little girl, bit her lip, and looked at him with a pure and innocent face.

Hongli felt suffocated: "Okay! Go ahead!"

After I finished speaking, that uncomfortable feeling came back.

He frowned and changed his words several times, still feeling itchy all over: "...you'd better learn to be as docile as Wanwan and stop causing trouble for me!"

After hearing this reprimand and suppression, Ruyi's eyebrows raised, but he felt relieved again.

Hongli: “…”

He interrupted Ruyi's preparation for a quarrel irritably: "Get out! Now! Immediately!"

Ruyi's eyes turned red. She didn't understand why he was so moody. She walked out with a stern face and raised eyebrows.

Hongli rubbed his brows irritably: "Jinzhong."

After calling everyone, he remembered that Jinzhong was asked by him to invite the queen.

He turned his head and looked into the room. Great, Li Yu, who was supposed to be serving him, was gone.

He was already feeling uncomfortable physically and mentally, and was provoked by this. He swept the things on the table. Jin Shou, who was driven out by Li Yu, came in immediately and said, "Your Majesty, Eunuch Jinzhong asked me to come and serve you. Please calm down. I am too slow."

When Hongli heard Jinzhong's name, he felt better. Then he looked at Jinshou's face and remembered that he was trained by Jinzhong and was quite handy. He frowned and said,

"Go, the director of Xuanqin Tianjian is here."

Jin Shou responded respectfully: "Jin Bao is guarding Lady Lingpin, I will ask Xiao Yinzi to serve you first."

Hongli's eyebrows relaxed a lot: "Forget it, I'll go see Lingpin, you call the person and let him wait here."

Jin Shou lowered his head and said: "Yes, I will take my leave."

Hongli walked out of the door, walked into the room, sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Yanwan's sweet sleeping face, asked Zhang Yun a few questions absentmindedly, then squinted his eyes to think about something.

What is he thinking about?

Think about how he handled Ruyi's affairs over the years.

After thinking it over, he completely didn't understand many of the things he had done over the years.

Did he really like Qingying that much? How could he pull Bai Ruiji to bed when Qingying was being bullied, doting on her and completely forgetting about Qingying?

He vaguely remembered that Bai Ruiji had misunderstood Qingying and whipped her with a horsewhip. Did he vent his anger on Qingying's behalf at that time?

no?

He had summoned Bai Ruiji to sleep with him two days ago, and when he heard her talking about the past events in a coquettish manner, he couldn't help but laugh!
