The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Chapter 513 Imperial Edict (2)

Her thoughtful gaze fell on Lin Butler, but it made Lin Butler couldn't help getting goosebumps. He just felt that he didn't know what Jiang Ruan was thinking, so he couldn't help feeling a little guilty, and said something quickly In a word, go out and prepare the horse for Jiang Ruan.

……

When Jiang Ruan and the others arrived in the palace, they first went to sit with Empress Dowager Yide in the Palace of Compassionate Ning. Empress Dowager Yide still looked as vigorous and resolute as in the past, but she could no longer conceal the vicissitudes of life in her eyes.The woman who once fought in the rebellion of the eight kings in the previous dynasty has finally shown her old age under the ravages of the years.But now that the emperor is seriously ill, Empress Dowager Yide must forget the fact that she is a mother. The first thing to do is to appease the officials and clean up the harem.The huge wave of seizing the heirloom is concealed under the calm surface.It is impossible for Empress Dowager Yide not to know that it is not difficult to maintain the overall situation under such circumstances.

Jiang Ruan didn't have much affection for Empress Dowager Yide, and when she was close to her, she just wanted to use Empress Yide to improve her status.But the situation is different now, the Empress Dowager Yide is always Xiao Shao's grandmother, even if she did something at the beginning, but from now on, she did not force Xiao Shao to do anything.And Jiang Ruan, who was on the sidelines, also saw clearly the attitude of Queen Mother Yide, she would not let Xiao Shao take the position of emperor.

Jiang Ruan talked with Empress Dowager Yide for a while, and then they arrived at Ye Pei's palace.Now the whole court knows that Jiang Ruan and Ye Pei have a deep relationship. Where did the half-way accomplished siblings come from? Everyone can only see and understand that Jiang Ruan is standing on Ye Pei's side on behalf of the Jinying Palace.Today when she enters the palace to go to Nanyuan, there will be many pairs of eyes looking at her secretly, Jiang Ruan knows, but this is exactly what she wants to achieve.

As soon as he entered Nanyuan, Ye Pei was still practicing calligraphy. When he saw Jiang Ruan coming, he was a little surprised at first, but then he was overjoyed. He immediately threw away the pen in his hand and came up to him: "Mother... Wangfei."

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly, everyone in Ye Pei's hall was his own, but it was really a bit of an eyesore, Ye Pei waved his hand to let others go out.Jiang Ruan also asked Lianqiao to watch outside the door, and sat down with Ye Pei first.

Ye Pei was a little happy, he hadn't seen Jiang Ruan for a long time, so he was naturally very happy to see Jiang Ruan, but he suddenly asked: "Why doesn't my concubine come to see me, the palace is very lively recently, Every day there is a lot of fun to watch, I thought that my mother and concubine would definitely take advantage of the opportunity to see me, but I couldn’t wait for anyone. On the contrary, King Jinying would occasionally come to the palace without invitation, How can anyone step into my Nanyuan at will!" At the end, there was anger in his tone, obviously extremely dissatisfied with Xiao Shao.Ye Pei and Xiao Shao are really enemies, and Jiang Ruan doesn't know why Ye Pei is picky about Xiao Shao, but he only thinks he is a child at heart, so he said with a smile: "Mao rashly enters the palace I'm afraid I'll bring you trouble, after the emperor is seriously ill, you don't think you're doing well, he didn't bother you, did he?"

"He" naturally refers to Ye Li, and the mother and son know it well, Ye Pei raised his eyebrows, and said happily: "How dare he trouble me? He is a coward, but now he wants to seal himself up." At such a critical moment, he will not make any trouble, even if I go to spit on him now, he will say that brother and friend will not punish me."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Ye Pei speaks now unconsciously with a bit of gangster air, and he doesn't know who he learned from, Jiang Ruan's gaze drifts unconsciously to Mingyue who is standing aside.Although it is said that Yue is the person Xiao Shao arranged for Ye Pei, but Mingyue used to be Jinyiwei. Jinyiwei had fought among the dead, and Mingyue stayed with Ye Pei every day, so it was inevitable that Ye Pei would be spoiled. Pei.Ye Pei's image outside now is that of a noble and refined young man of the royal family, he looks like a bandit.Jiang Ruan had some doubts in his heart why Xiao Shao sent Mingyue here.

But what Ye Pei said was correct, Ye Li was originally a cautious person, precisely because the throne was not so open and aboveboard, so he had to pay more attention to what outsiders said.Therefore, he will not let people leave any clues. At this time, he has to act like a wise gentleman. Even if he really wants to make any moves, he will never dare to come out in the clear and make the movement too loud.

Ye Pei looked at Jiang Ruan, suddenly remembered something, and said, "Concubine Mu, you came to see me today, did something happen?"

"Pei'er," Jiang Ruan withdrew his thoughts and looked at the boy in front of him: "Do you want to be the emperor?"

There are many eyes and ears in the palace, it is a bit too bold to say such a grandiose sentence, but Jiang Ruan is not worried, just because Ye Pei is not the stupid and ignorant Ye Pei in the previous life, this Nanyuan's defense It can be said to be watertight.After Jiang Ruan finished speaking, she stared closely at Ye Pei's eyes.

Ye Pei was slightly taken aback, then lowered his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Concubine Mother...I...want to be emperor."

"Okay." Jiang Ruan nodded.Ye Pei was taken aback again, and raised his head to look at Jiang Ruan. He thought that Jiang Ruan would be angry or have other expressions, but he never expected her to be so calm.Because they were in the palace in the previous life, Jiang Ruan and he experienced too many painful things, and the source of everything was just human desires.Now he wants to be emperor because he wants to become stronger. Perhaps only in this way can he protect the people he wants to protect, and can completely bring Jiang Ruan under his wings.But in the eyes of outsiders, he was only doing it for his own ambition and selfish desires. Ye Pei didn't dare to think what Jiang Ruan would think of him.

But Jiang Ruan just answered yes in such an understatement, and didn't even say a word of denial.Ye Pei looked at her in confusion, and said, "Concubine Mu, aren't you angry?"

"Everything in this world, if you want it, get it, if you can't get it, fight it, grab it. But Pei'er," Jiang Ruan looked at him, "I will fight for what you want .”

Ye Pei's eyes were hot, and he was about to cry, but he knew he couldn't cry.Now that he is an adult, he can't worry Jiang Ruan like he was in the previous life.He gritted his teeth and forced the tears back. In this palace, people are cold and warm, and people leave tea to cool down. There is a person in the world who tells you: what you want, I will fight for you.What a difficult sentence.

Concubine Mu, what you want, I will fight for you.Ye Pei secretly said in his heart.Only Jiang Ruan's voice came again: "Then Peier, can you tell me where you hid the imperial decree?"

Ye Pei was startled, and looked at Jiang Ruan at a loss. With just one glance, he knew that the news he wanted to hide could no longer be hidden. He said disconcertedly, "How did the concubine mother know?"

"It just depends on your plan. Your arrangements in the court have always been tight, and you have always been working hard to attack, but these days have slowed down. It is impossible for Ye Li to make you change your mind. I know you have an idea. Child, once you decide in your heart, you will continue to do things. I think your goal in this life has been that position from the beginning." Jiang Ruan paused before continuing: "A few days ago, Ye Li's subordinates killed Eunuch Li, after much deliberation, it is all due to the imperial decree. But if the imperial decree establishes you as the crown prince, there is no need for you to be so restless."
