Chapter 179 Can I use your toilet?
Chapter 179 Can I use your toilet?
Ruyi sat upright in the main seat, her expression looking as if she was distracted, but in fact she was thinking about a lot of things.
She bit her lip slightly, her face showing a conflicted look.
Such a great opportunity...
Ling Yunche said in a deep voice: "Madam, I will send Madam Wei back to Yongshou Palace! I think she must have drunk alcohol today, so she came here and said nonsense!"
His eyes were pleading.
Ruyi looked at his trusting and sorrowful eyes, thinking about how he had hurried over to protect her when he heard someone had broken into the palace, and her heart softened: "Well, send the person back safely and tell Concubine Ling that Madam Wei is her biological mother after all, and even if she dislikes her, she shouldn't humiliate her like this."
Ling Yunche felt relieved: "Yes! Slave, thank you, Madam!"
Ruyi looked at him gently: "It's all my fault, Ling Yunche, don't be sad."
Ling Yunche's eyes were wet.
Madam Wei finally understood that Ruyi loved Ling Yunche so much that she was unwilling to use the scandal to deal with that unfilial daughter, otherwise her precious son would be implicated.
She glanced at Ruyi with disdain. She was so unfaithful to her husband, yet she was the emperor's true love. The emperor could actually tolerate her being cuckolded and still doted on Concubine Xian in front of his love rival every day. His tricks were really fancy and disgusting.
She narrowed her eyes and said, "Empress Xian, please think carefully. If you don't cooperate with me, you will never be able to get my daughter to step down from the position of concubine in this life. She is pregnant with the dragon seed, but you don't have a child. When the time comes, she will be the imperial concubine and you will be the concubine. Have you thought about how to kowtow to her?"
Ruyi's face froze, and she said calmly, "The relationship between me and the emperor is not something a common woman like you can understand."
Madam Wei's stomach began to ache again. She frowned and said, "You really don't want to cooperate with me? Then I can leave now!"
Ruyi frowned and said to Ling Yunche, "Ling Yunche, I see that she doesn't look right. I'm afraid she may be hysterical. Go to the Imperial Hospital to see if Jiang Yubin is there and ask her to come and see Madam Wei."
She said compassionately, "If Madam Wei really gets into trouble in Yikun Palace, I'm afraid Concubine Ling will fight me to the death."
Seeing that she was determined to ease the relationship with Yan Wan, Ling Yunche was inexplicably happy and nodded quickly: "Okay! I'll go right away!"
As soon as Ling Yunche left, Mrs. Wei spoke again: "Now that he's gone, can we talk about cooperation?"
Ruyi said calmly: "This palace..."
Madam Wei had a severe stomachache and was in a hurry to go to the toilet. She didn't want to listen to her beating around the bush: "Just tell me how you want to deal with her, such as putting dirty things in her palace, or falsely accusing her of having an affair with someone. Give me the things and I'll take them back and put them in her bedroom. Don't beat around the bush!"
Ruyi frowned: "Madam Wei..."
Mrs. Wei was really anxious to have diarrhea, so she turned around and left: "If you don't want to, forget it, you are such a pretentious person!"
Ruyi couldn't help but call her out, "Since ancient times, emperors have been unable to tolerate witchcraft. You are the mother of Concubine Ling. She was promoted so quickly. Do you think she used witchcraft?"
Madam Wei thought she was really cruel and stared at her: "Are you sure you want to use this? How can I escape then?"
Ruyi saw the ruthlessness in her eyes and knew that she really dared to do something. She leaned back on the chair and said, "If Madam Wei discovered that Concubine Ling was practicing witchcraft and killed her relatives for the sake of justice, the emperor would definitely spare your life because of your meritorious report."
Madam Wei did not dare to agree easily: "When the time comes, you have to speak for me! You are the emperor's favorite concubine. If you are willing to speak, the emperor will only kill that unfilial daughter for your sake and spare my life!"
Ruyi said calmly, "I will naturally speak for Madam Wei. Since ancient times, those who sacrificed their relatives for the sake of justice were all loyal to the emperor and patriotic. I will naturally protect her for the emperor."
Mrs. Wei was not stupid: "I want 100,000 taels of silver, and you have to provide the witch doll. I agree to this!"
Rong Pei, who had been acting as a shadow, shouted angrily, "You are so outrageous! Empress Xian is trying to help you to sacrifice your relatives for the sake of justice and redeem yourself from your crimes, and you dare to ask for money?!"
Mrs. Wei was startled. Seeing her suddenly appear and almost poking her finger at her face, she was a little angry: "This is a serious matter of confiscating the property and losing your head. Do you think I'm stupid?"
She held her stomach and said, "One word, do it or not?"
Ruyi frowned.
Rong Pei's eyes widened with anger.
Mrs. Wei looked impatient and thought about talking about it next time. She had to go to the toilet first.
Ruyi said calmly, "Okay, for the sake of the country, I will spend money. As long as there is no evil in the emperor's harem, I am willing to spend money. Just do it, and when the matter is settled..."
Mrs. Wei interrupted her: "Give me the money and the baby together. Who knows if you are cheating me?"
Ruyi choked: "How can I lie to a commoner like you?"
Madam Wei laughed sarcastically, "So what? That's one hundred thousand taels of silver!"
She spread her hands and said, "If you give me the silver and the doll now, I can go and report Wei Yanwan tomorrow morning!"
Ruyi: “…”
She patiently explained: "I don't have that much cash on hand. Just focus on your work. I always keep my word. When the right opportunity comes, I will definitely give you all the money."
Madam Wei was so angry that she laughed: "I didn't expect that a favorite concubine like you couldn't even come up with 100,000 taels of silver, and you just open your mouth to deceive an old woman like me! Wait for the right opportunity? Why don't you say wait until I die and burn 100,000 taels for me?"
She felt that the deal could not be negotiated, so she decided to go to the toilet first, and then go to the Qixiang Palace to ask if that family was willing to pay to buy the life of her unfilial daughter.
She walked quickly, and Ruyi saw the determination in her back. She frowned and called her again: "In half a month, I will give you money and a doll!"
Madam Wei turned to look at her and said, "Have you thought it over? Don't try to trick me again!"
Ruyi looked at her with annoyance: "Of course, I am a concubine, how could I possibly lie to a mere commoner like you."
Madam Wei nodded: "That's good! I'll leave now! I'll try my best to get out. If I can't get out, you just have to wait for me for two days! That damn girl is watching me too closely!"
Ruyi waved her hand and said, "I understand. Don't leave in a hurry. Wait here for Jiang Yubin to show you."
Madam Wei smiled and said, "You are worthy of being the emperor's favorite concubine. You are so cautious even towards a eunuch, afraid that he will see your bad side! Your method is amazing!"
Ruyi's face turned pale: "Don't talk nonsense!"
Mrs. Wei realized that she had failed to flatter the right person, so she smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, can I use your toilet for a moment? I have a stomachache!"
After hearing this, Ruyi felt very disgusted and waved her hand and told her to find it herself.
But unexpectedly, as soon as Mrs. Wei left, the emperor arrived at the door.
