I just want to live a happy life

Chapter 302 Fu Cha Lang Ya 18

Perhaps because of inferiority complex or perhaps because of jealousy, Bai Ruiji started speaking ill of the imperial concubine without caring about anything else.

"Empress Xian, how can the Imperial Concubine compare to you? She only became the Imperial Concubine because of her family's support. Time is fleeting and the Emperor will one day dislike the Imperial Concubine."

"But it's different for Concubine Xian. The Emperor has feelings for you and will give you the honor you deserve."

Ruyi had a smile on her face and did not stop her. After she finished speaking, she said, "Mei promised you that you can just say this in front of me, but I won't..."

Before Ruyi finished her words, a voice came from not far away.

"presumptuous!"

Ruyi and Bai Ruiji looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see Langya and Gao Xiyue walking over.

Langya said sternly, "I was just about to go to the prince's residence with the imperial concubine when I heard you guys talking nonsense. Concubine Xian, Mei promised, do you still know the rules?"

Gao Xiyue also spoke up: "Mei Da Ying, I don't think I have ever targeted you, but you are so presumptuous."

"And Concubine Xian, you didn't stop her, and you even wanted to protect her, what do you mean by that?"

Gao Xiyue just felt wronged. She and Mei promised that they had no grudges against each other, so how dare he talk about her behind her back? Did he think she was easy to bully?

It's no wonder Gao Xiyue thought so. This time, Langya stopped Hongli from giving Ruyi a plaque with his words. Naturally, Gao Xiyue didn't go to the Yangxin Palace, nor did she meet Bai Ruiji, and naturally she didn't make enemies with Bai Ruiji.

Langya didn't expect that without Zhen Huan as her backer, she could still speak so freely.

Bai Ruiji was still a little afraid of Queen Langya, so she knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Queen, Concubine, it was my fault. I shouldn't have said such nonsense. I won't dare to do it again."

Ruyi looked at Bai Ruiji's pitiful appearance and felt very sorry: "Empress, please forgive her this time. Mei Ying is in great favor. If the emperor knew about this, he would definitely be unhappy."

Langya looked at Ruyi and said, "Princess Xian, are you threatening me?"

Ruyi knelt down and said aggrievedly, "I dare not."

Langya looked at the two men and said, "Mei promised to commit treason and disrespect the superiors. You should kneel here for two hours to clear your mind. When you go back, copy the palace rules fifty times to serve as a warning to others."

"Princess Xian, you don't know what is right or wrong. Since you are protecting Mei Da Ying, then you should kneel here and follow Mei Da Ying to clear your mind."

After dealing with the two men, Langya and Gao Xiyue were about to leave when Bai Ruiji spoke again: "I don't accept it, Queen. I just started to feel unwell not long after serving the emperor. If the emperor asks, I will tell the truth."

After being punished, Bai Ruiji completely lost her mind and even brought up the emperor to threaten Langya.

Lang Ya didn't look at Bai Ruiji, but said to Zhao Yitai: "Zhao Yitai, slap me in the face."

In Bai Ruiji's opinion, the Queen must be afraid of the Emperor. As long as she said the Emperor, the Queen would let her go. Unexpectedly, she miscalculated.

Seeing the eunuch approaching, Bai Ruiji quickly stepped back, and her rationality after running away from home returned: "Empress, I know I was wrong."

What if her face is ruined and she falls out of favor?

Bai Ruiji tried hard to break free from the two eunuchs who were holding her, but she couldn't. The next second, Zhao Yita swung his hand and hit her in the face.

"Snapped!"

Then there was the sound of slapping in the face again.

Ruyi was so frightened that she dared not speak. Listening to the continuous noises, she could only turn her head away and not look.

Soon, Zhao Yita slapped twenty times, and Langya asked him to stop.

The two young eunuchs who were holding Bai Ruiji from behind also let her go. Bai Ruiji could not hold on and fell to the ground without daring to make a sound.

In Langya's opinion, such unruly people should be punished. It is useless to just talk about it.

In the original plot, Bai Ruiji harmed the original owner, Yongcong. For revenge, she didn't want Bai Ruiji to die so easily.

Otherwise, she would have wanted to kill Bai Ruiji right now.

"Zhao Yitai, watch them and tell them when they finish kneeling and when they can leave."

After saying that, Langya and Gao Xiyue left the place.

Ruyi and Bai Ruiji knelt on the ground, not daring to speak or move. The weather was very cold. They knelt on the snow, and the cold wind soon penetrated their clothes. They shivered with cold, especially their knees, which were numb from the cold.

Compared to Ruyi, Bai Ruiji was more miserable because her face had just been hit. Not only were her cheeks swollen, but there was also blood at the corners of her mouth.

Bai Ruiji was not a person who would reflect on herself. She did not dare to blame the powerful queen, so she blamed Ruyi. If Ruyi had not mentioned the imperial concubine, she would not have said it, and she would not have been caught and punished.

The same goes for Ruyi. If she had known earlier, she would not have spoken for Bai Ruiji. She should have stopped her when Bai Ruiji spoke, instead of covering up for her.

The two blamed each other for the punishment, and their relationship, which had been able to say a few words to each other, instantly dropped to freezing point.

What Ruyi didn't know was that A'ruo, who was staying here with her and suffering from the cold, also started complaining, complaining about Ruyi's lack of tact.

A Ruo no longer has the relationship between master and servant of Ruyi. After being dragged down by Ruyi again and again, one day she will explode.

Two hours passed very slowly. Ruyi knelt on the snow. Although the palace maids and eunuchs who came and went did not stop or say anything to her, Ruyi still felt extremely ashamed and humiliated, and wished it would be over quickly.

After kneeling for two hours, Ruyi was helped to stand up by A Ruo. She limped back to the Yanx Palace without saying a word to Bai Ruiji.

When Hailan saw the embarrassed Ruyi, she hurried forward to support her and said, "Sister, how are you injured so badly? Suo Xin, go get the imperial physician."

Ruyi entered the palace, sat on a stool, looked at her purple knees and said, "Hai Lan, why are you standing at the palace gate? You know everything."

Hai Lan seemed to be unaware of it: "Yes, it's not just me. Everyone in the palace should know that my sister was punished by the Queen. Sister, you have suffered."

Ruyi's face was stiff. She forced a smile and said nothing.

She feels a little regretful now.

She knew she shouldn't say it, but she couldn't help it. She was not saying it for Bai Ruiji, she just wanted to vent her anger. Why was Fu Cha Langya the high and mighty queen, Gao Xiyue the imperial concubine, and she was just a small concubine Xian.

She just wasn't convinced.

Fu Cha Langya had always suppressed her when she was in Prince Bao's Mansion. She thought that Hongli wanted to rely on her family background, so he favored Fu Cha Langya.

But now that Hongli has ascended the throne and the empress dowager has passed away, Hongli still goes along with Fucha Langya in everything, and she can no longer deceive herself.

In Hongli's heart, Fucha Langya is very important.

She loves Hongli so much, when will Hongli only have her in his heart?
