Chapter 212 Why does she do that?
"Madam Wei, what on earth did you do to make the emperor so angry?!"
Ruyi raised her eyebrows and asked Madam Wei angrily.
Yan Wan wanted to shake her head after hearing her words. Was this man too proud because he thought his plan was about to succeed? What was the difference between her saying that the emperor was angry with Hai Lan and lost his temper?
Yan Wan waved at Yong Qi and said, "You, a child, don't need to worry about adults' affairs. Have you eaten? It's very cold today. Why are you wearing so thin?"
Yongqi's eyes were gentle, "I brought a thin cape with me, but I was in a hurry to go out, so I forgot to take it out. I got up early and had a full meal, so I'm not hungry now, so don't worry, mother."
Yan Wan touched his forehead and found it was not hot, so she breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty, it is almost noon. I will ask Lan Cui to take Yong Qi to eat something and then send him to Sister Meifei."
Hongli thought this was a good thing. Today was bound to be a day of trouble. Yongqi had already been injured because of the fight with his mother. If he saw his mother hurting others again, he would inevitably feel uncomfortable.
He nodded, but before he could say anything, Ruyi took over the topic.
Ruyi said helplessly: "Ling Fei wants Yongqi to ask Mei Fei to come over and punish your mother for you, right? You don't have to do this. The emperor has always loved you. As long as you plead for your mother, the emperor will not embarrass her."
She looked at Yongqi tenderly, "Yongqi, you, a child, don't have to worry about the affairs between adults. You don't have to be caught between your biological mother and Concubine Ling and Concubine Mei.
Empress Xian knows that it is not easy for you, and she will definitely help you and stand by your side. Come, tell your father, do you want to go back to your mother?"
Yan Wan was furious when she heard what Ruyi said. She angrily said, "You keep saying that you don't want Yongqi to be embarrassed, but you instigated him to disobey the emperor's order? It was you and Hai Ying who made a mistake and implicated the child. The emperor ordered him to go to Sister Meifei. Why didn't you let Hai Ying snatch the child by yourself to disobey the emperor's order?!"
Ruyi choked: "You...if you think so, there is nothing I can do!"
Yan Wan said with a cold face: "Of course you can't do anything! Because you are not right!"
Ruyi: “…”
She frowned: "Your Majesty..."
Hongli rubbed his brows and said, "Yongqi's matter has long been decided. Hai Ying is not suitable for raising a child. I will never let Yongqi return to her side."
He was not blind. He could see clearly how Yongqi was with Hai Lan and how he was with Bai Ruiji.
Hai Lan is a crazy person who only cares about her sister. She has been crazy about Ruyi for a long time. Her son is just a tool for her to please Ruyi.
Ruyi was unwilling to accept the fact: "But Your Majesty, Yongqi is not only Hailan's child, but also the child I watched grow up!"
She really didn't want to raise Wei Yanwan's child. Wei Yanwan had a bad root, and the child she gave birth to would definitely have bad qualities. Raising the child would be a disaster. Although Yongqi was disabled, he was a prince after all, and he listened to Hai Lan, so he was the most suitable one to be raised in Yikun Palace.
Hongli's face turned cold: "So? As long as the child grows up under your care, you want to raise them with you?"
His eyes were deep: "Ruyi, I have already given the eldest prince to you, you should not be too greedy and always think about other people's children."
Seeing Ruyi's pale face, he paused and comforted her uncontrollably: "You will have your own children in the future. Pay more attention to yourself, so that you won't have no energy in the future."
Ruyi's heart, which had been as dead as ashes, suddenly rekindled: "Your Majesty!"
Yan Wan also called out, "Your Majesty!"
Hongli's attention immediately turned to Yanwan: "What's wrong? Are you feeling sick?"
Yan Wan smiled gently and said, "Shall I ask Lan Cui to take Yong Qi down?"
Hongli nodded: "Okay."
He patted Yongqi on the shoulder and said, "Yongqi, go find your mother and don't worry about these matters of the adults."
Yongqi suddenly lifted his clothes, knelt down, and kowtowed heavily to Hongli.
Hongli was stunned: "You are..."
Yongqi's eyes were red: "Father, I am unfilial and I want to sue my biological mother!"
Hongli's eyes darkened slightly.
Ruyi's pupils suddenly shrank, and she said in a deep voice: "Yongqi, did you say something wrong? You have to think clearly. Every word and action in the harem may lead to someone's death, or even implicate nine clans!"
Yongqi was stunned, his face turned pale.
Yan Wan hurriedly pulled him up with distressed eyes: "Good boy, you are only eight years old this year! You are still a child. If you are undecided in your heart, just tell your father, don't believe what others say!"
Yongqi looked at Hongli anxiously, his face full of uneasiness.
Hongli glared at Ruyi and said, "Shut up! Why are you threatening a child for no reason?!"
Ruyi felt wronged: "Your Majesty, I didn't. I was just worried that Yongqi would be deceived and do something he would regret for the rest of his life! After all, Hailan is his biological mother. If he was instigated to kill her, how would he face the gossips of the world in the future? When he grows up and becomes a father, he will understand the kindness of his parents. Will he be able to regret and make amends at that time?"
Yan Wan looked at Ruyi coldly and tightened her grip on Yongqi's shoulders: "Yongqi, if you are really worried and afraid, then you don't have to tell me about this. Nothing is more important than your healthy growth."
Yongqi's eyes were red again, and he said solemnly: "I am still young, and I can't distinguish many things clearly, but I know that your mother, your mother, and your father are the ones who really treat me well!
Hai promised her that he would give his son cinnabar and let him mix it in his food. When he got sick, he could sue his mother for not taking good care of him. He also wanted him to tell the emperor that his mother only liked his mother's children and was too partial to him, which was why she treated him so harshly.
He finished speaking in one breath, looked at Hongli, tears streaming down his face: "Father, Hai promised her that it was terrible! Empress Xian always brings her to see me. They are my elders, and I have to study, so it's not easy to avoid them.
But Father Emperor, I am really scared! I am scared that it is because of me that my mother and Empress Ling were harmed by them! I don’t know what to do! But I don’t want to go to Empress Xian and Hai Ying!”
He insisted on finishing his speech, and in the end he couldn't help but choke up a bit.
In fact, Yan Wan had known all this for a long time, but she had been keeping it to herself. But when she heard Yong Qi say it himself, she felt very depressed and uncomfortable.
Her calculations ultimately hurt the child.
Yan Wan's eyes were red as she looked at Hongli, who had a gloomy face, and asked, "Your Majesty, just because Hai promised to give birth to Yongqi, does that mean that no matter what she does to Yongqi, Yongqi has to endure it and deserve to be tortured or even killed by her?"
She asked with a choked voice, every word was tearful, which made Mrs. Wei's face twitch and she got goose bumps all over her body.
