Chapter 408: Is it really about being a eunuch?
He immediately rejected it:
"The Fifth Prince was poisoned by someone with ulterior motives. He wanted to kill two birds with one stone and send Ulanara out of the palace. Wouldn't that be what that person wanted?"
She glanced at the Queen and almost called her name.
With her status as a means of suppression, Fucha Langya is definitely no match for the empress dowager.
So after a few rounds of confrontation, he was defeated.
"In my opinion, the poisoning of the heir to the throne was not necessarily done by Ulanara."
"Now that she has just come out, someone is eager to murder the heir to the throne. Doesn't this prove that she was framed?"
These words are meant to excuse Ruyi.
Not only did she want Ruyi to come out, she also wanted to be restored to her position as a concubine.
By helping her niece, who was once her mortal enemy, to regain favor, the Queen Mother became more and more backward.
The two of them discussed back and forth, and Hongli just stood there as a decoration, not in the right state of mind the whole time.
Continuously daydreaming.
Until the Queen Mother couldn't help but ask for his opinion.
"Emperor, what do you think?"
Hongli then came to his senses and realized that he had not heard clearly what they were discussing before.
How could he see that?
Just sit and watch!
"This matter is entirely up to the Empress Dowager. I have no objection."
He just said it casually, but the empress dowager thought that she still had feelings for Ruyi, and she was delighted.
Fu Cha Langya also thought so, and her heart tightened, fearing that the once most favored Ruyi in the palace would come back again.
But she was nervous but there was nothing she could do. The Queen Mother was obviously determined to protect Ruyi at all costs, and it was only a matter of time before the other party came out.
Maybe she should focus more on herself.
For example, having a baby!
By the time the group left the Cining Palace, Luo Yao was almost falling asleep standing there.
Just listening to the Queen Mother chattering made her feel sleepy.
The final result was that Ruyi temporarily got rid of her commoner status and lived in the Cining Palace until the truth was found out.
In fact, everyone knows that this is just the Queen Mother's excuse.
By the time the crime is reduced to a minor one and the minor one is forgotten, Ruyi will be cleared of all charges.
As long as the emperor is willing, she can be reinstated to her original position at any time and continue to be Empress Xian.
But at the moment, Hongli has not even visited Ruyi, so how could he think of giving her a position?
Ruyi was in a period of rest and recuperation, and the search in Qixiang Palace ended in vain.
Because the palace maid who poisoned the person committed suicide for some reason, the clues were lost.
With so many things happening in the harem, we weren’t able to go to the Old Summer Palace this year and we all spent a hot summer in the Forbidden City.
Until the Double Ninth Festival——
..........................................
On September 9th, the Double Ninth Festival, a banquet was held in the palace and royal relatives, nobles, court officials and ladies were invited to attend the banquet.
In addition, the Queen Mother's daughter, Princess Hengti, who had been raised outside the palace, also came, which made the Queen Mother very happy.
At this time in the Yangxin Palace.
Luo Yao is helping Hongli dress.
Seeing that she brought over a very expensive and gorgeous hat, Hongli subconsciously refused:
"This is just an ordinary banquet, there is no need to dress so formally."
Luo Yao didn't respond, but just helped him put on the hat.
"Your Majesty is the emperor, so it's only natural that he should dress more majestically. He can't wear the same hat as the servants, right?"
It’s okay that the eunuchs wear little red hats, but you, Hongli, also wear little red hats.
Why, insufficient funds?
If you weren't wearing bright yellow clothes, I wouldn't have recognized you as the emperor!
Hongli had no choice but to let her dress her up.
Next to them stood a row of eunuchs, holding trays and waiting with their heads bowed.
Among them was Jinzhong.
He had been serving the emperor in person for a short time, but no matter how many times he had seen them together, he was still shocked by the way the two got along.
Did Master really come here to be a eunuch?
Why are your eunuch and my eunuch a little different?
Master, you are really brave to dare to give orders to the emperor!
He suppressed the gossipy fire in his heart and prepared to go back and discuss a short essay with Jinbao.
After almost finishing packing, the group rushed towards the Cining Palace.
Picking up the Queen Mother and then going to the banquet venue was also a pretense to show that Hongli was a filial son.
When they arrived, the venue was already full of people, waiting for the two big guys to make their final appearance.
Everyone stood up and knelt to pay their respects. Hongli walked so fast that the empress dowager had to quicken her pace.
Otherwise he would have gone ahead!
I was very angry:
"Emperor, why are you walking so fast? I haven't even had a good look at Hengti yet!"
Her two children were raised outside, and Hengti had the opportunity to enter the palace with great difficulty.
She wanted to say a few words to support her.
But Hongli did not play by the rules. He went straight up and sat in the seat.
The Queen Mother had a stiff smile on her face and had no choice but to sit down.
Luo Yao stood on Hongli's left hand side, holding her own whisk, acting like a decoration.
But Hongli just wanted to talk to her, either to pour her some wine or to ask her to move something.
Luo Yao really wanted to exchange souls with him right now so that he could also experience the feeling of being ordered around!
"Your Majesty, I offer you a toast!"
Fu Cha Langya stood up, which allowed Hongli to let Luo Yao go temporarily.
Everyone present stood up to toast, and Hongli raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.
As the protagonist here, he naturally has to drink.
As soon as he finished a glass, Luo Yao would quickly refill it.
While pouring the wine, I kept saying to myself:
"I should have replaced the wine with water to prevent him from biting people when he gets drunk."
Hearing her words, Hongli could hardly maintain the smile on his face.
But it soon returned to normal without Luo Yao noticing.
This negative skill rarely takes effect, and you can only hear one or two harmless words from the heart occasionally.
Otherwise, the relationship between the two would not be like it is now.
After a round of toasts, singing and dancing broke out in the venue.
A group of dancers in pink gauze skirts were performing a dance that they had rehearsed thousands of times.
The movements are well-coordinated and the choreography is of high quality.
But how does that sentence go?
It is beautiful, but nothing new!
Everyone present had no idea how many times they had watched the song and dance performance, so they were naturally tired of it.
Luo Yao was also absent-minded, thinking that the Queen Mother would definitely nominate new people to appear at this banquet.
I just don’t know if it’s still the same Yehenara Yihuan.
While she was thinking about it, the Queen Mother had already stopped the singing and dancing.
"But what's the point of these ordinary dances, Emperor, I will introduce you to a newcomer..."
She winked at Fuga, who immediately clapped his hands, signaling Yihuan, who had been prepared, to go on stage.
The sound of soft stringed instruments rang out in the hall.
Yehenala Yihuan, wearing an emerald green Manchu costume, walked out with a round fan in her hand.
