Chapter 315 Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Ling Yunche 14

After Hongli learned from other channels what happened in the Imperial Garden, the desire to marry someone started to stir in his heart.

Ever since Bai Ruiji was demoted to a court lady, Hongli seldom lingered in the harem. Although there were still some old ministers in the court who wanted to control him, the new emperor, the empress dowager did not take any action at this time, and no one knew what tricks she was planning to use against him.

Now that something good is about to happen, he has to make it a good one.

Hongli found an opportunity and took advantage of Ling Yunche's rest to tell this matter to Li Yu, the newly promoted chief eunuch beside him.

Li Yu had met Wei Yanwan before, but he knew that the emperor had never met Wei Yanwan and didn't know how old Wei Yanwan was now.

Li Yu said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, Wei Yanwan has not yet reached the age of marriage. Isn't it too early to talk about this now?"

"Ah?" Hongli was shocked. "How old is Wei Yanwan?"

Hongli then remembered that he seemed to have never asked Wei Yanwan about her age. He only knew that Ling Yunche had a childhood sweetheart who was a few years younger than him.

Li Yu: "It's just after 11th."

Hongli's pupils slightly dilated, and he looked at Li Yu, "So small!"

Li Yu nodded, "Yes."

Hongli felt it was a pity that Ling Yunche had not yet reached the age of twenty.

I thought he could get married now to wash away the bad luck he had been feeling during this period.

Hongli held the memorial in his hand with a look of disappointment, "Looking at Guard Ling's steady demeanor, it really makes people forget that he is still a child."

After reading the memorial for a while, Hongli ordered Li Yu, "Go and tell the head nanny of the Fourth Treasury to ask Wei Yanwan to bring over the clothes I left there. I want to see what Guard Ling's childhood sweetheart looks like."

When Li Yu heard this, his heart skipped a beat, fearing that the emperor would fall in love with Wei Yanwan.

Hongli didn't hear Li Yu's reply. He looked up at him and saw his embarrassed expression. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind.

He put the memorial on the table in a bad mood and said, "What are you thinking about every day? I just looked at that little girl, why are you looking at her like that? As if I called her here to eat her?"

Li Yu knew that what he did was disrespectful in front of the palace, so he knelt down and begged for mercy.

Hongli waved his hand and asked him to get up.

Li Yu heaved a sigh of relief and hurried to do his job.

Hongli watched Li Yu leave the Yangxin Palace, picked up the memorial again and opened it, muttering to himself: "Even if I am a beast, I won't be so hungry that I won't choose what to eat, okay!"

"Achi!" Li Yu just walked out of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity when he sneezed, sniffed his nose, and hurried to the Sizhiku, not daring to delay the emperor's instructions at all.

He had finally gotten the position of the Imperial Chief Steward, and he couldn't make any mistakes, or else that sinister guy Jinzhong would get an advantage.

Soon, Li Yu brought Wei Yanwan back to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

On the way here, Wei Yanwan asked Li Yu anxiously.

"Eunuch Li, how should I perform the salute when I enter the Yangxin Palace? Is it the same as when I perform the salute to the empresses?"

Li Yu and Ling Yunche had a decent relationship, and there was nothing worthy of hostility between the two. Seeing the trembling Wei Yanwan, Li Yu comforted her, "It's okay, just perform the ceremony like you normally would, and you can leave after the gifts are delivered. The emperor is in a good mood now, and he won't make things too difficult for you."

"Oh." Wei Yanwan breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still very nervous. This was the first time she was going to meet the emperor face to face.

Besides, Wei Yanwan had already known that Ling Yunche was on vacation today and was not in the palace. She was somewhat afraid that if she misbehaved in front of the palace, there would be no one to support her.

After Wei Yanwan followed Li Yu into the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, she lowered her head, looked at the floor tiles in front of her, and saluted the emperor respectfully.

Hongli saw the little person kneeling on the ground in front of him and thought, "Why is he so thin?"

Hongli was not clear about Wei Yanwan's background. Seeing that Wei Yanwan was so thin, he signaled to Li Yu with his eyes. Li Yu received it and glanced at Wei Yanwan. He didn't find anything wrong, and then looked at the emperor with some suspicion.

Forgive him for not knowing what the emperor meant by looking at him.

Hongli waved his hand and asked Wei Yanwan to get up. After Wei Yanwan stood up, she still kept her head down in a very restrained manner, not daring to look up at him at all. His impression of Wei Yanwan in his heart became even more shy.

After sending Wei Yanwan away, Hongli asked Li Yu, "Why is Wei Yanwan so thin? Did the people in the Sizhiku treat her badly?"

Li Yu shook his head. "With Guard Ling's help, no one in the Sizhiku will exclude Wei Yanwan. It's just that Wei Yanwan comes from a poor family and her parents favor boys over girls. Now Wei Yanwan is an orphan. After entering the palace, only Guard Ling is taking care of her. I heard that Wei Yanwan gives most of her monthly salary to Guard Ling, saying that she is repaying his kindness."

"Yeah." Hongli nodded, thinking that Wei Yanwan was someone who knew how to repay kindness.

What neither Hongli nor Li Yu had expected was that the fact that Wei Yanwan was personally taken to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity by the Imperial Chief Eunuch Li Yu caused quite a stir in the harem.

Because of Ling Yunche, the Queen was not too upset about Wei Yanwan going to the Yangxin Palace. Instead, Hui Guifei Gao Xiyue came to Changchun Palace angrily and complained to Fu Cha Langya: "Is the Emperor going to have a new favorite again? This time it's a little maid from the Sizhiku. Why is the Emperor's taste getting worse every time!"

"Royal Concubine! Be careful with your words!" Fucha Langya sternly stopped Gao Xiyue's mumbling.

It was the first time that Gao Xiyue was bullied by Fu Cha Langya. She was completely stunned. Then she stood up awkwardly and bowed to apologize.

"Please forgive me, Queen, I spoke without thinking."

Fu Cha Langya: "No need, sit down. The emperor's mind is not something you and I can guess, but this time I'm afraid it's not what we think."

Gao Xiyue's eyes lit up: "Madam, do you know the truth?"

Fu Cha Langya nodded, "I heard that the little palace maid who was suffering from longing had a close relationship with a guard beside the emperor. The emperor might want to bring the two of them together."

"Oh?" Gao Xiyue's curiosity was aroused. "Could it be that the Emperor wants to be the matchmaker and bring these two together?"

"Yeah." Fucha Langya nodded.

"So that's how it is. I thought we would have one more sister in our harem!" Gao Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back in her chair lazily.

Fu Cha Langya looked at Gao Xiyue and asked, "Did you meet anyone before you came to this palace?"

Gao Xiyue looked at Fu Cha Langya in confusion, "Ah? Oh, when I came here, I ran into Concubine Jia, and she told me that the Emperor would have a new person by his side. I came here angrily to ask for confirmation from the Empress."

A glimmer flashed in Fucha Langya's eyes, and she reminded Gao Xiyue: "In the future, you should have less contact with Concubine Jia. Concubine Jia is a big-hearted person. If you get close to her, be careful that she will plot against you without your knowledge."

Gao Xiyue's heart tightened, and she asked, "My Lady, what are you talking about..."

Fu Cha Langya motioned Su Lian beside her to come forward.

Su Lian walked forward and told Gao Xiyue about the deal between her and Concubine Jia.
