Chapter 147 Hongli's Confession Flower; Hongli ordered the execution of Zuolu and Zhaqi
"Then what do you think I should do?"
Ruyi chuckled: "The emperor has already made up his mind, why does he ask me?" She smiled and poured a bowl of soup for Hongli.
Hongli had been frowning just now, but after talking to her, his frown suddenly relaxed: "Well, Ruyi, you are the only one in this palace who understands what I am thinking."
Ruyi: "I am only thinking of you. Your Majesty, please eat more."
Hongli held her hand and said lovingly, "Okay."
Qixiang Palace
Despite being pregnant, Concubine Yi got very angry: "Waste, a bunch of waste!"
Su Lian: "Don't be angry, be careful of the child."
"We asked them to frame Concubine Yu, but how did they end up with Concubine Ling? Now, Wei Zuolu has been imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment. God knows how long he can hold out. He might even confess everything tonight."
Su Lian: "That can't be helped, but it's fine this way. Your Highness is Concubine Hui's confidant, so getting rid of her is fine."
In the Ministry of Punishment, Zuo Lu wet his pants as soon as he saw the walls full of torture instruments, and confessed everything immediately.
Including Li Rongbao saving him, and asking him and Zhaqi to frame Hailan.
Hongli was furious when he saw his confession. He threw it on the ground and said, "This is outrageous. And that Zhaqi, arrest him and execute him together."
Yu Hu: "Yes, I will do it right away."
Late at night, Wei Yanwan sat by the window, looking at the dark sky outside and lost in thought.
Chunchan brought a bowl of nourishing medicine and said, "Master, drink it while it's hot."
Wei Yanwan suppressed her nausea and drank the medicine clean.
"Is this what he gave to Shupin to drink?" Wei Yanwan asked.
Chun Chan nodded: "My Lord, please don't blame me for being nosy. Why do you want to use contraception? You are so favored and still young, why do you...?"
Wei Yanwan smiled sadly: "I know you care about me, but I have Jingxuan and that's enough."
On the second day, news came from the Yangxin Palace that Koliyete Zaqi and Wei Zuolu conspired to murder the concubines in the harem and executed them to serve as a warning to others.
Ruyi went to Yongshou Palace specifically to visit Concubine Ling.
"Your Excellency, I came to see you today because I didn't want you to be upset. The Emperor had no choice but to deal with your brother's matter."
Wei Yanwan nodded: "Your Highness, you're worrying too much. I know it all. He deserves the retribution for his own actions."
"Are you still going to call me Imperial Noble Consort in such a distant way?" In her previous life, Wei Yanwan committed many evil deeds because she was bullied.
Ruyi is willing to slowly guide her onto the right path.
"Sister, I don't want to sleep with you anymore."
Ruyi held her hand and advised, "Yanwan, I know your feelings for Ling Yunche, but you are in the palace now. In the eyes of outsiders, Ling Yunche is dead. Even if you don't do it for him, do it for this child!"
Wei Yanwan burst into tears: "I understand what you said, sister, but...how can I live with my enemy?"
"Don't worry, I will help you. Think about Jingxuan. If you lose your favor, what will happen to her? If a royal princess has no one to love her after she grows up, the only way out is to marry into a foreign country. Are you willing to do that?"
Wei Yanwan wiped away her tears and said, "No, I must not let Jingxuan go to marry!"
"Then listen to me. Capture the emperor's men and make sure he can't leave you."
"But...what should I do?"
Ruyi: "Don't worry, I will teach you these slowly. The important thing now is to take care of your body."
