Chapter 146 The Morning Light Is Red Like Fire
It’s just that the Fucha family is a noble family, and Fucha Langya is the emperor’s first wife.
The emperor always had some sincerity and pity towards Fu Cha Langya.
Let’s look at the emperor’s previous life. He knew that Fu Cha Langya had done so many evil things, but he still mourned her deeply for many years after her death.
He even expressed his feelings through poetry and wrote thousands of poems for Fucha Langya.
What about "We share the same aspirations and desires to be frugal, and I know that you must be praised as a virtuous person", and "Why has the tragedy become a thing of the past, and the news has brought tears to my eyes"...
At Fucha Langya's funeral, the emperor even deprived Yonghuang and Yongzhang of the possibility of inheriting the throne just because they did not shed tears.
It is true that Hai Lan had planned this matter. But it is true that Fu Cha Lang Ya and her servants had instigated the people in Xie Fang Palace to mistreat Yong Huang and to raise and abolish Yong Zhang.
Fu Cha Langya never really provided the care and concern of a legitimate mother and loving mother to Yonghuang and Yongzhang.
If it were just based on sincerity, it would be normal for Yonghuang and Yongzhang not to cry.
How much of the emperor's remembrance of Fucha Langya is sincere and how much is just pretense, I'm afraid only the emperor himself knows.
Isn't it too late to remember the dead now that they are gone? It's just for show.
The more affectionate the emperor was, the more hypocritical Ruyi felt he was.
Perhaps, after playing the role for so long, even the emperor himself was deeply involved in it. He really regarded himself as a deeply affectionate man who was determined to love his first wife forever.
What Ruyi needs to do now is to tear apart this false illusion bit by bit.
Therefore, she had to completely shatter the image of Fu Cha Langya in the hearts of the emperor and the empress dowager, and make it disappear completely.
Ruyi was unwilling to leave even a trace of remembrance for the emperor.
To achieve this, ordinary calculations and framing are far from enough. Only by destroying the heart can the hatred be relieved.
Coming back to her senses, Ruyi picked up the sandalwood bracelet on the table and twisted it gently. The small wooden balls collided with each other, making a wonderful sound that soothed people's hearts.
Ruyi sighed softly, "The Queen's body has already been exhausted. If the Eighth Prince is really unlucky... I'm afraid the Queen will be extremely sad and blame herself, and it will be difficult for her to hold on any longer."
"That's her own fault. Sister, please don't feel sorry for her." Hai Lan's usually gentle eyes were now chillingly cold.
“Although no one dared to say it openly, privately, everyone had doubts about the queen’s condition after her recovery from illness.
Everyone said she was listless and impatient, completely different from how she was before she got sick.
Some people even speculated that the queen had shown signs of a last burst of vitality.
If she really couldn't make it, it would be normal. We can all see it, so how could the emperor not know?
I heard that the capital has even prepared some happy trees. They are just waiting to heal the sick queen. "
Ruyi showed surprise at the right moment, and then showed compassion and mercy.
"Alas, the Queen is fine, but the Eighth Prince is still an innocent child, so pitiful.
I heard that the Queen Mother personally set up a small Buddhist temple at the stern of the Zhai Feng ship, saying that she would chant sutras for the Eighth Prince every day to pray for his safety.
He also ordered people to move a lot of Buddhist statues and scriptures from the boat that was with him. Now he is probably concentrating on worshipping Buddha in the small Buddhist temple.
I will go there after I burn incense and bathe, and chant sutras with the Queen Mother to pray for the Eighth Prince."
Rong Pei and Liu Ying helped Ruyi to untie her hair and take off her clothes. In the misty water, she immersed herself in the water.
After washing off her makeup, Ruyi changed into a plain shirt in moon-white color with dark blue cloud patterns, which was embroidered with a low-key pattern of auspicious clouds of blessings.
The hair accessories on the two heads are also made of silver and decorated with a double bat pattern inlaid with kingfisher feathers.
Only the light pink glass beads hanging from her bun can slightly highlight the imperial concubine's temperament.
Ruyi appeared in front of the Empress Dowager dressed like this, and was barely able to get a word of conciliation from the Empress Dowager.
"The concubines were dressed up gorgeously on the dragon boat, hoping to take advantage of the queen's declining power and attract the emperor's attention.
You are the only one who is willing to dress so plainly for the Eighth Prince, which shows that you are thoughtful."
Ruyi knelt respectfully on the futon behind the Empress Dowager, clasped her hands together, and said softly, "I know that the Emperor and the Empress Dowager are very worried about the Eighth Prince.
The child was still young, and it was very pitiful for the Eighth Prince to have met with such a misfortune.
If the Eighth Prince can recover soon, I believe the Emperor and the Empress Dowager will be able to rest in peace sooner.
Let me accompany the Queen Mother to burn incense and pray, and do my best to help."
The Empress Dowager and Ruyi knelt until the next morning.
The Buddhist hall was filled with fragrant mist. Ruyi felt her legs were numb, as stiff as the legs of the sandalwood table and could not move.
At the instruction of the Empress Dowager, Fujia specially set up two small and exquisite rooms on the side of the Buddhist hall so that the Empress Dowager and Ruyi could rest temporarily.
The Queen Mother was getting older, and the whole night of worshipping Buddha and burning incense was inevitably a bit exhausting for her body and mind. She simply returned to her room to take a nap.
Ruyi did not return to her room immediately. Instead, she rubbed her sore legs and arms and walked out of the cabin with the help of Rong Pei.
The morning glow dyed the sky, and where the sun first shone, the golden red light was projected onto the water, making it sparkle and look like a dream.
After staying in the narrow cabin for a long time, Ruyi couldn't help but take a deep breath of the cool and fresh air in the early morning.
"My dear, Princess Jingse seems to be walking towards the Queen Mother's Zhai Fengchuan." Rong Pei leaned close to Ruyi and reminded her in a low voice.
Ruyi's heart moved slightly and she immediately closed her eyes.
She forced a half-smile on her lips and sighed in a moderate voice,
"The morning light is as red as fire, and the morning glow is adorning the horizon. It is truly a day full of hope.
I hope the Eighth Prince can recover soon, so that the Emperor and the Queen Mother can rest a little more at ease."
"Oh, Concubine Xian is here early in the morning reciting poems facing the morning glow. She really has the leisure time."
Jingse saw Ruyi standing at the stern with such a graceful figure, healthy and leisurely.
Thinking of his sick, pale and haggard mother, he felt that the world was unfair and became furious.
The words she spoke were also unconsciously a little bit sarcastic, "The Eighth Prince fell into the water and fainted, and the Empress Dowager fell ill due to anxiety.
Everyone else knows to keep a low profile so as not to displease the Emperor, but Concubine Xian ran to the Queen Mother's boat to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Is she gloating over someone else's misfortune? "
Seeing Jingse speaking disrespectfully to her, Ruyi did not get angry and slowly explained, "Princess, you are overthinking.
The Queen and the Eighth Prince are ill, and the Queen Mother is extremely worried, so I came here specially to serve the Queen Mother and share the Emperor's worries."
"Stop your sweet talk here!" Ruyi's calm and peaceful appearance deeply hurt Jingse's heart.
