Chapter 237 The Abandoned Queen
"I have no right to defend myself."
"Here they come again. Here they come again. It's always these two sentences."
"You keep pouting and pretending to be pure and innocent. Queen, you should at least take a bronze mirror and look at your dignity now before you act like a childish girl."
"Even the Fifth Princess wouldn't do such childish things."
As soon as Ruyi used her three tricks, Concubine Qing stepped out and interrupted her without any hesitation.
Concubine Qing has really had enough. If you say that Ruyi is a child of thirteen or fourteen, then she can tolerate it. Even if she is sixteen or seventeen, or in her early twenties, she can also tolerate it.
But she looks like a person in her forties, pouting all day long and saying she's innocent. People really hate her so much that they want to slap her in the face.
Concubine Qing roared angrily, and Ruyi's body trembled. It was even more shocking to see a grown person like her tremble like that.
The emperor turned his head away reluctantly.
I really can't believe that he has such a thing in his heart.
Ruyi just felt aggrieved, but she still had the habit of pouting.
"Qing, Qingpin, you are humiliating me like this. What does it mean?"
"Is everything I say wrong now?"
"The Queen Mother was slandered that the Sixth Prince was not the late Emperor's son, and she was allowed to make a few excuses. But I am not even allowed to make an excuse?"
Ruyi looked at Concubine Qing coldly, as if looking at her like this could scare Concubine Qing and reveal her innocence.
"The Emperor's sister-in-law is not worthy of mentioning the Empress Mother and my sixth brother. The Empress Mother was slandered by the Guarjia clan and the Emperor's sister-in-law's aunt that day, but my sixth brother's blood test confirmed that he is the son of the late emperor.
Where is the Queen?"
No one noticed when Princess Longyue came. However, when Princess Longyue mentioned the Empress Dowager's Sixth Prince, the Emperor felt a little guilty.
It’s no wonder that the Empress Dowager was angry and sent Longyue over since Ruyi brought up the royal family’s privacy like this.
"Longyue, why are you here? Is the Empress Dowager in good health? I said I would go to pay my respects to her later."
The emperor listened carefully to the difference in the way Longyue addressed Ruyi before and after, and knew that it was inappropriate to talk about the empress dowager like this. He spoke to Longyue attentively and asked someone to invite Longyue to take a seat.
Longyue came up and gave Ruyi a cold look.
"The Empress Dowager has always known how filial my brother is, but with the Emperor's sister-in-law, the Empress Dowager is really worried."
"Imperial sister-in-law, you are the one who committed adultery, and you are the one who gave birth to the evil. How can you be qualified to compare yourself with the Imperial Mother?"
Ruyi always showed off her authority in front of the concubines, but she had a different attitude towards the cold-eyed Longyue. She even turned around and said to Longyue:
"Princess, you have misunderstood me. I have no intention of slandering the Empress Dowager. I was just framed like the Empress Dowager and I am here to prove my guilt."
"Oh, prove yourself? Will the Queen do that?"
"The Queen has always been as calm as a chrysanthemum. Whenever something goes wrong, she always leaves it to my brother to deal with. When have you ever proven anything?"
Ruyi was speechless because of what Longyue said. She really couldn't find anything she had done to prove her innocence. It seemed that it was always the emperor who came forward, or Hailan who came forward, or she just kept getting away with it.
Therefore, Ruyi will not prove her innocence, and at best she will just make a point of not being able to defend herself.
Long Yue held the handkerchief in her hand, as if she remembered something. She said again:
"Oh, no, the queen is still capable. The queen has never forgotten the glory of the Ulanara family. The queen is very concerned about this matter."
"Your Majesty, I think you don't know, but the tablets of the Empress's aunt, Yixiu, and the imperial concubine, Li Jingui, are enshrined in the Empress's Yikun Palace."
"What? Queen, what are you doing? Are you..."
Concubine Chun was so scared that she uttered a few words, but suddenly realized that there was something wrong in her words and dared not continue.
Longyue's gaze was focused on Concubine Chun.
"It seems that Concubine Chun still remembers what happened back then. Not many people remember that now."
"It's hard for the queen to turn it over."
The emperor felt uncomfortable when Longyue looked at him.
After Jin Yuyan exposed Ruyi, the emperor secretly asked someone to remind Ruyi not to worship Li Jingui anymore. But she did not go to Anhua Palace, but worshipped in Yikun Palace herself. She not only worshipped Li Jingui, but also Yixiu.
"When Empress Ulanara died suddenly, everyone in the palace said that it was the Empress Dowager who killed Ulanara. It was the Empress herself who confirmed that Ulanara died suddenly.
You also keep saying that you only have the Cining Palace in your eyes, not the Jingren Palace.
Now you are offering sacrifices to the Queen of Jingren Palace. Do you feel that your aunt died unjustly?
Are you afraid that no one will talk about how Empress Ulanara was forced to death by the Empress Dowager?"
"And there's Concubine Li Jingui, doesn't the Queen know her identity?
You might as well just put up a banner outside saying that the emperor is a wild child that no one wants."
Longyue said so much in one breath, and the resentment in his heart reached its peak.
The Empress Dowager single-handedly helped the Fourth Prince, who had no biological mother and no family background, become the emperor.
Just when he finally wanted to have a few days of peace in his later years, he didn't know when the previous dynasty started talking about the Empress Dowager forcing Yi Xiu to death, and even dug up the matter of Ruyi requesting a title for the emperor's biological mother, Li Jingui.
It is obvious that Ruyi does not recognize the Empress Dowager, and in her heart she recognizes her aunt, Li Jingui.
"Nonsense. Queen, what have you done?"
The emperor naturally didn't dare to tell her that she had known about this matter for a long time, so he could only question Ruyi.
Ruyi was a little nervous and stood up and knelt in front of the emperor.
"Your Majesty, I did offer sacrifices to Concubine Li's tablet, but not to my aunt. I just felt sorry for Concubine Li.
This concubine is also for the emperor."
"Shut up!"
The emperor was really terrified by Ruyi's words. How could she be so stupid to say it directly? It would have been fine if she had just said it, but she even dared to say it was for him.
Doesn't that mean the emperor allowed him to do so?
The emperor was angry with Ruyi, and Ruyi looked at the emperor in confusion.
"emperor?"
Ruyi felt very wronged. She did it all for the emperor. How could the emperor still treat her like this?
That was completely ignoring what Longyue said about how the previous dynasty criticized the empress dowager.
"Your Majesty, the most important thing right now is the blood test. The current result..."
Seeing that Ruyi and the emperor continued like this, Concubine Chun was afraid that it would only make Longyue more unhappy and she would not be able to handle the matter properly. So she thought it would be better to talk about the blood test first and let them handle other matters privately.
The emperor looked at the bowl of blood.
He sat back on the dragon chair.
Concubine Chun's reminder made the emperor pay attention. Ruyi had no choice but to explain the result of the blood test, but she would explain it when Longyue mentioned her aunt.
Then Ruyi will explain. If she doesn’t explain, it means she has admitted it.
Ruyi is always like this.
"Queen, I ask you again, what is your explanation?"
Ruyi took another look at the bowl of blood and said straightening her body:
"I will say it again, I did not do it, and I have no right to defend myself."
The emperor's eyes gradually turned cold as he looked at Ruyi who did not make any excuses for the matter.
"The queen is an unvirtuous wife, an unobedient concubine, an unfilial daughter-in-law, an unkind mother, disrespectful to her subordinates, and unkind to her superiors."
"She has committed adultery with someone else. She is not worthy of being my queen."
"Deposed queen."
