Chapter 237: Ruyi warns Qin Li; Concubine Jin's heartfelt words
Concubine Jin sneered: "Master Qin's trick is really brilliant. It makes me unable to open my mouth to scold you!"
Ruyi: "General Manager Qin, your words are unconvincing. This makes it difficult for me to do this. After all, it was your Imperial Household Department that neglected Noble Lady Jin."
Qin Li was used to it and was not afraid. He said, "Empress, I will definitely make up for it when I get back to Noble Lady Jin. I will definitely not neglect her again. Please forgive me this time."
Ruyi looked at Concubine Jin: "What do you think?"
"Since Her Majesty the Queen has spoken, I will naturally obey Her Majesty the Queen."
"Well then, Qin Li, if you dare to neglect the sisters in the harem again, I will never forgive you."
Qin Li leaned forward and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will never do it again!"
Ruyi waved her hand to signal him to leave.
After Qin Li left, Ruyi said again: "Noble Lady Jin has wronged you. I will make a suggestion to the Emperor."
Noble Lady Jin: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration. Actually, this is not the only reason why I came here today."
"Oh? What else do you want?"
Concubine Jin stood up and knelt: "Your Majesty, I know I have done too many wrong things in the past, but now I know my mistakes. I beg Your Majesty to have mercy on me. From now on, I will follow your orders!"
Ruyi stood up and helped her up. She patted Jin Guiren's hand and said, "We are both the emperor's women, sisters. I know you can't help yourself. Just move around more in the future."
Concubine Jin curled the corners of her mouth. She didn't expect Ruyi to believe her at this moment.
"The Empress is suspicious, and I can understand that. I just want to live a peaceful life. I don't care about the position of Queen or children. I just hope to get the Empress's protection and live in peace in this palace." Concubine Jin said this from the bottom of her heart. She really didn't want to fight anymore.
Ruyi: "I know your feelings, but in this palace, the only way to protect yourself is to gain the emperor's favor."
Concubine Jin's eyes were dull and lifeless, completely different from the domineering and arrogant person she used to be.
She said, "The Emperor is truly heartless. To prevent Concubine Shu from having a child, he even gave her contraceptive soup. I foolishly thought he truly doted on her!"
"Are you worthy of drinking?" Ruyi asked.
Concubine Jin nodded and said, "Yes, but I haven't been able to get pregnant for a long time, so I asked someone to check and found that something else was added to the pregnancy medicine!
Our emperor is really good at scheming.
He even schemes against the person next to him, so what can I do?"
Ruyi advised: "Noble Lady Jin, don't be so stubborn. Think more open-mindedly. If you take it too seriously, you will really lose."
Concubine Jin looked at Ruyi with a puzzled expression: "Empress, why do you say that?"
Could it be that she doesn't love the emperor?
But they are childhood sweethearts!
Ruyi: "No need to worry about anything else, Noble Lady Jin, as long as your grace and favor last."
Noble Lady Jin: "This is the only way I can convince myself."
Ruyi nodded: "I understand."
After Concubine Jin left, Hai Lan asked, "Do you believe her, sister?"
Ruyi sighed: "I believe she is disappointed with the emperor."
"In fact, you should know it from his attitude towards the late queen. How could he, the emperor, be devoted to only one person?
But it seems he still has special feelings for his sister."
Ruyi curled her lips and said, "What affection or not, I don't care about these things anymore."
