I just want to live a happy life

Chapter 429 Gao Xiyue 28

Ruyi couldn't believe that A Ruo would betray her.

"A Ruo..."

At this time, the Queen Mother said, "Princess Xian, now that there are witnesses, evidence, and even the servants around you have come out to testify, why don't you admit it?"

Ruyi's expression was wooden, and she looked at the emperor with a look of grievance: "Your Majesty, I don't understand why they want to frame me, but I really didn't do it."

Xiao Fuzi noticed Jin Yuyan's gaze, said some harsh words to Ruyi, and then bumped into the copper stove in the middle of the hall, his head was bleeding, and he died on the spot.

Gao Xiyue, like everyone else, was so frightened that her body leaned back, but there was actually no fear in her eyes. This happens every time she goes to the world of Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace. The plot can't go on unless someone dies, right?

Seeing Xiao Fuzi committing suicide by hitting the stove, A Ruo, in order to prove that what she said was true, also hit the copper stove. Of course, she was not going to commit suicide, but just wanted to knock herself unconscious.

Seeing another person fall down, Jin Yuyan could no longer control her temper. She knew the testimonies of Xiao Fuzi and Xiao Luzi in advance, but she knew nothing about what Lian'er said. Moreover, when A Ruo talked about what Lian'er did just now, she spoke very convincingly, which showed that there was a certain degree of credibility. So the reason why her child died at birth might really be related to Ruyi.

She thought she was the oriole, but she didn't expect that she would be the praying mantis.

How could she not be angry?

Despite her still weak body, Jin Yuyan stood up, walked to Ruyi, and slapped her hard.

Gao Xiyue noticed it and quickly reached out to grab Jin Yuyan, but Jin Yuyan's movements were too fast and she failed to catch her.

After the slap, Jin Yuyan fainted and fell into Zhenshu's arms.

Zhenshu looked at Ruyi and said with hatred in her eyes: "Empress Xian, are you satisfied now? If you want to adopt our master's child, just say it nicely. Our master has always been simple-minded. If the master's child is given to you to raise, the master will not disagree. But why did you leave the mother and the child? As a result, our little master died."

After saying this, she started to sob.

Originally, Concubine Yi also wanted to take action. She hated Ruyi very much, but her body was very weak now and she could not be so emotional anymore. She also had to take good care of herself and her children.

At this time, there were two people behind Ruyi who were bumping into the stove, one in front of her had fainted and one was crying, and the scene was very lively.

However, Ruyi seemed to be not affected by the current environment at all. She was still kneeling there staring at the emperor, hoping that he could clear her name.

The Emperor's suspicion of Ruyi had reached its peak at this time. Considering that Ruyi had previously teamed up with Lianxin to frame Concubine Mei, it was not impossible for Ruyi to do something to harm two concubines.

Moreover, what these people said today were well-reasoned, but Ruyi just kept repeating the same few words over and over again, which was not credible at all.

Ruyi really disappointed him greatly.

In the end, Jin Yuyan was sent back to Qixiang Palace, and the other concubines returned to their respective residences. Ruyi was imprisoned in Yanx Palace, awaiting her fate.

When Gao Xiyue left, she saw Ruyi still had that dazed expression on her face, and she didn't want to look at her anymore. In short, Ruyi's ending was already doomed. If things went as expected, she would still be sent to the cold palace, her old place.

After returning to the palace, Ruyi sat on the steps in a daze. She couldn't understand why A Ruo betrayed her. Wasn't she good enough to her?

In this palace, the servants around the master live as comfortably as A Ruo, but why is she not satisfied at all? Or has she spoiled her?

After taking a look around the Yanxi Palace, this once bustling palace had become quiet, and all the people who served her except惢心 had left.

Will she be punished by the emperor?

It shouldn’t happen. The emperor loves her so much, and they are childhood sweethearts. The emperor won’t be so cruel.

And the emperor must know in his heart that she is not such a cruel person and she would not do anything to hurt others.

The emperor will prove her innocence.

She believed in the emperor.

Gradually, Ruyi seemed to have convinced herself and was no longer so worried.

Just a few days after Ruyi relaxed, she was punished by the emperor. She was demoted to a commoner and moved to the cold palace.

The person who came to announce the decree was Jinbao. Jinbao and Ruyi had no friendship. After announcing the decree, he left without reminding her to pack up some gold and silver jewelry like Li Yu in the original plot.

惢心 helped Ruyi back to the palace. Seeing her master's stunned expression, she quickly called out, "Master?"

Ruyi came to her senses and was very sad. She really did not hurt Concubine Yi and Concubine Jia. How could the emperor not believe her?

"惢心, the emperor doesn't believe me and even sent me to the cold palace. How could he not believe me?"

Suo Xin comforted her dryly, "My dear, don't be sad. The emperor sent you to the cold palace. I think he wants to protect you. Don't worry, I will accompany you."

Ruyi smiled bitterly. This was the only way she could comfort herself. She could only comfort herself that the emperor would not be so cold and heartless to her. But how much she believed it was something only she knew.

She only had a loyal servant named惢心 by her side, and she was very supportive of惢心 accompanying her into the cold palace.

"That's fine. The cold palace is quiet. It would be nice if you could accompany me in."

That night, Ruyi packed some clothes, and惢心 advised her to bring more food, gold and silver, etc., but Ruyi did not listen at all and only packed a small bag. In the bag, besides a few sets of clothes, there was Ruyi's decent armor.

The next day, under the leadership of Jinbao, Ruyi and惢心 went to the cold palace.

This time, the eldest prince was not Ruyi's adopted son. He was handed over to Su Lujun to raise when Ruyi was sent to the cold palace. Su Lujun did not come to say goodbye to Ruyi because of the eldest prince.

Hai Lan was originally punished by the emperor to go to the cold palace, but with Jin Yuyan's plea, Hai Lan was only demoted to a concubine and continued to live in Qixiang Palace.

Everyone who heard this news knew that although it seemed like Jin Yuyan was being tolerant towards Hailan, it was actually torture for Hailan.

Hailan will definitely not have a good life under Jin Yuyan's control.

Now Hai Lan is detained in Qixiang Palace and cannot get out at all, so it is naturally impossible for her to send Ruyi away.

Ruyi was very sad and sighed again that the concubines in the palace were cold-blooded and indifferent.

After arriving at the cold palace, a guard of the cold palace, Ling Yunche, opened the door and Ruyi went in. However, when惢心 was about to follow Ruyi in, she was stopped by Jinbao.

"The emperor only said that Ulanala, a commoner, should be sent to the cold palace, and Suo Xin is a palace maid and cannot go in."

Ruyi was stunned for a moment, then said, "Jinbao, Suo Xin is someone close to me. If she doesn't come in with me, where else can she go? Please be flexible."
