Ruyi's Rebirth: Ruyi's Disease Retreat Retreat

Chapter 234 Hongli's Deep Affection; How Could His Fate Be Different?

In the painting, Fu Cha Langya looked peaceful and smiling, as if saying to him: "It's okay, I don't blame you!"

The only sound in the hall was his own breathing, and the more it was like this, the more painful he felt.

Ruyi stood outside and looked at his distraught appearance, thinking: Who am I showing this affection to?

Li Yuwei lowered her head and whispered, "Empress, won't you go and persuade the Emperor?"

Ruyi shook her head: "I am not Langya, I can't persuade her."

Yes, she is not Fu Cha Langya, and she will not follow the same old path. Let him be sad, and be sad for a few more days.

After a long while, Hongli finally stood up and left. Ruyi held out her hand to him and asked, "Your Majesty, are you going back to the Yangxin Palace?"

Hongli nodded, and the two returned to the Yangxin Palace together.

Rong Pei came hurriedly with the things.

"Your Majesty, I asked the kitchen to make some lotus seed soup. Please have some."

"I see that you are not in good spirits."

Hongli took a few sips and said, "In the past, Langya also loved drinking this lotus seed soup the most." His eyes were sad when he said this, and it didn't seem fake.

But Ruyi knew that he was lying, and even he believed it himself.

Ruyi smiled faintly: "The late queen was benevolent, filial, and virtuous. I would be satisfied if I could learn even one ten-thousandth of her."

"How can you be the same as her? She..." Although she had disobeyed him more than once, she gave birth to children for him after all, and as a queen she was also fulfilling her duties.

Ruyi fiddled with the Buddhist beads on her wrist, feeling deeply moved for a moment.

"What are you thinking?"

Ruyi replied, "I remember the late Empress's appearance when she first entered the palace. To be honest, I am truly envious."

Hongli snorted softly, and his thoughts were brought back to the past.

Ruyi knew how to hurt his heart, but he didn't think Ruyi was murderous. Instead, he thought she was very sensible.

"At that time, I doubted her. After all, she was chosen by the Empress Dowager, but I knew I needed someone like her to consolidate my position.

The Emperor never liked me before, and I was never the candidate to inherit the throne.

It wasn't until the Empress Dowager adopted me that I finally got the chance.

In fact, your aunt is also a victim, but I cannot disobey the Empress Dowager."

Ruyi held his hand and comforted him, "Your Majesty, I understand your dilemma."

Hongli: "Thank goodness you understand me."

Ruyi smiled, but she didn't really care in her heart. The belated affection was cheaper than grass, not to mention that she didn't need it now.

After eating the lotus seed soup, Hongli regained some energy and went back to deal with government affairs.

Rong Pei helped Ruyi out of the Yangxin Palace.

Rong Pei asked, "Does this servant think that the Emperor is sad?"

Ruyi sneered: "He is sad, but who knows if he is really sad."

Rong Pei: "I heard that the emperor's words came from the heart."

Ruyi: "Even you can see it." His acting skills are really superb.

"Why do you say that?"

Ruyi sighed: "Alas, the person is gone. Isn't he acting so affectionate just for the people who are still here to see?"

"Yes, the Emperor didn't treat the late Empress like this when she was still alive."

"Yes, he didn't treat me well when I was still alive, but now that I'm gone, he's so affectionate. This is the sorrow of being a woman."

Rong Pei said, "I wonder if Concubine Ping is so favored because she looks a bit like the late Empress, so the Emperor..."

Ruyi nodded: "But she is not Langya. Her fate will not be much better than Langya's."
