Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Ji Hong panicked when he saw MO Ruyue’s pale face. He subconsciously made a gesture to catch her. Seeing this, the palace maids lowered their heads and dared not look at her.
MO Ruyue only blacked out for a moment and her legs went soft. She regained her senses and quickly stood up from Ji Hong’s embrace.
“There’s no need to find a doctor. Prepare the Manchu Han Imperial Feast!”
MO Ruyue felt weak. She thought that she should have said something full of vigor and power, but it sounded like soft words. She felt disgusted when she heard it. She frowned and felt a little embarrassed.
Ji Hong immediately nodded and looked at MO Ruyue nervously.
“What is the Manchu Han Imperial Feast? Tell me and I’ll get someone to prepare it immediately.
“Men, quickly prepare the Manchu Han Imperial Feast!”
However, when the chamberlain beside him heard Ji Hong’s words, he was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.
“Your Majesty, this servant doesn’t know what the Manchu Han Imperial Feast is. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!’
MO Ruyue rubbed her temples, trying to wake herself up.
‘Give me a portion of the best food in your palace. I’m hungry.”
At this moment, MO Ruyue only felt that she was too embarrassed. Ji Hong and the young eunuch who was kneeling on the ground finally understood what was going on. Ji Hong’s heart ached again when he understood.
MO Ruyue had told him that she had been brought here by an old man before she had even eaten her breakfast.
If he knew who invited MO Ruyue, he would skin him alive!
“Did you hear that? Hurry up and go!’
The kneeling chamberlain saw the Emperors extremely gloomy expression
and hurriedly kowtowed to him. He went to the imperial kitchen as fast as he could.
“Give me a bowl of sugar water first.”
MO Ruyue realized that her hands were shaking. She was afraid that she would faint again before the food arrived.
As soon as she finished her sentence, a palace maid rushed to make MO Ruyue some sugar water. It was served to her in a short while. The temperature was just right. MO Ruyue drank it all in one gulp and felt alive again.
It was almost lunch time. MO Ruyue had been performing the surgery on Consort Li, so she had used up a lot of her energy. Moreover, she hadn’t even had a sip of water since last night, so she had low blood sugar.
Just as she finished drinking the sugar water, Ji Hong thought about how those people in the imperial kitchen were so indecisive and incompetent. This time, he had to replace them all.
All of a sudden, a large group of palace maids appeared. Each palace maid was holding a tray in their hands, and the tray contained delicious food. They looked expressionless, but in fact, their feet under the hem of their skirts were moving very quickly. In a short while, the table was filled.
When the first palace maid opened the lid, MO Ruyue couldn’t help but reach out and pinch a piece of meat into her mouth.
Seeing this, the palace maids lowered their heads and did not dare to look anymore, afraid that they would be implicated in the Emperor’s rage.
However, Ji Hong sat beside MO Ruyue and watched her eat with a smile on his face.
There were a total of one hundred and eight dishes. MO Ruyue only tasted a few mouthfuls of each dish before she was full. “The taste of your chef in the imperial kitchen is quite good.”
“I’ve already eaten all of these. Isn’t it a waste?”
“Why don’t we…”
MO Ruyue had originally thought that she would pack all these up and eat them slowly when she was hungry. This was made by the imperial kitchen. Although there were not many seasonings, the chefs in the imperial kitchen were different. They made almost all the original flavors and were very delicious.
“No, I’m hungry too.” Ji Hong said.
Ji Hong picked up his chopsticks and picked up the dish closest to him. He put it into his mouth and chewed slowly.
He had been watching MO Ruyue eat, but he hadn’t moved. In fact, he had already felt hungry when he saw MO Ruyue eating so sweetly.
The Emperor’s actions shocked the palace maids and eunuchs who had just raised their heads a little. They were so frightened that they wished they could lower their heads to their feet.
What is the Emperor doing?
The Emperor is eating the leftovers of others!
This matter must not be revealed, not even if they were beaten to death. If it was revealed, they would die!
“I’m going to stay here for seven days. I’ll leave after Consort Li is fine. I’ll come back for a check-up a month later. If nothing unexpected happens, Consort Li should be completely healed.”
MO Ruyue saw Ji Hong chewing and swallowing slowly, so she began to talk about her plans.
“Okay, I’ll get someone to prepare a place for you.”
“There’s no need to specially prepare. I’m staying next to Consort Li, so it’s convenient to take care of her.”
“Yes. ”
“The Empress has arrived!”
The palace maids and eunuchs knelt down to welcome the Empress.
“Greetings, Empress Qian Sui!”
“Stand up.”
“This concubine greets the Emperor. How is little sister Consort Li?”
MO Ruyue was standing up unwillingly to greet the Empress when Ji Hong raised his hand to stop her.
“You’ve worked hard for Consort Li. Go and rest.”
The Emperor was the most important. Since he had already said so, how could MO Ruyue be so shameless as to insist on going to greet the Empress? Besides, she had a huge grudge against the Empress!
“Yes, then I’ll go down.”
“Impudent!”
The Emperor had not allowed MO Ruyue to greet the Empress, so she was so angry that her fingers had dug into her palms. Seeing that MO Ruvue had treated her as air and even addressed herself as ‘me’ to the Emperor, she had caught onto something.
“How dare you!’
Ji Hong threw the chopsticks in front of the Empress’ feet, scaring the Empress into kneeling down.
“Emperor, please forgive me!”
‘Go ahead. If there’s anything, just tell them.”
Ji Hong ignored the Empress and let her kneel there. He then turned to MO Ruyue with a pleasant expression.
MO Ruyue knew that she and the Empress had formed a death knot, but she was not afraid. She let the palace maid take her to Consort Li’s residence. After MO Ruyue left, the Emperor’s expression became even uglier than before.
He didn’t even look at the Empress, but coldly spat out a sentence.
“Take the Empress into Xihua Palace!”
The Empress was so shocked that she raised her head, thinking that she had misheard. Xihua Palace was a dilapidated courtyard in the westernmost part of the rear palace It was cold and damp, and no one lived there all year round. It was eerie and scary. During the day, the palace maids and eunuchs were unwilling to pass by. Only the concubines who had made a big mistake would be driven there and left to fend for themselves. That was actually the Cold Palace.
As soon as Ji Hong finished speaking, two female officials came over to pick up the Empress and were about to leave. The Empress immediately struggled.
“Emperor, why?”
“Just because of that woman, just because I said she was impudent, the Emperor wants to banish me into the Cold Palace?
Ji Hong saw that the Empress would not shed tears until she saw the coffin. Although she had guessed correctly, it was only half. “I believe you know better than me how Consort Li fell.”
“Take her away!’
The two palace maids quickly dragged the Empress out, no matter how the Empress shouted.
“Aren’t you afraid that my father…”
The Empress shouted out this sentence in a moment of desperation. However, as soon as she said this, her scalp went numb.
It was over!
Originally, her father might have been able to save her, but after she shouted this sentence, it was probably even more certain. But she hated it. She had only been married to the Emperor for a month and had only been the Empress for a month, and she was already banished to the Cold Palace. Wouldn’t this make the whole world laugh at her?
“No. You can’t treat me like this…
Ji Hongs heart was in turmoil when he heard the Empress’ words, but he remained calm on the surface.
“Without my permission, no one is allowed to visit Cold Palace. Those who disobey will be beheaded!”
He was worried that he could not punish the Empress, but now the Empress had personally sent him a great crime..
