Concubine Hong died for 12 years, and Ruyi stayed in the cold palace for 12 years.

Murong Qi's harem was cold and quiet, except for some people who entered when he first took the throne, no one has entered since then.

In the previous two years, many concubines were full of thoughts, thinking that they might one day be favored by Murong Qi, they tried their best to meet Murong Qi by chance, even if it was a moment of joy, it was worth it.

At least when Si Jin was still the Concubine Hong, she met many beautifully dressed concubines.

At that time, Murong Qi liked to have fun more, when he met those concubines, he would avoid them, he would avoid them, and occasionally when he was in the mood, he would also like to watch those concubines competing for beauty, so he could have some fun.

After Concubine Hong left, these concubines were silent for a while, and their hearts started thinking again, only this time, Murong Qi didn't have the mood to play anymore, when he bumped into the concubines, he naturally bumped into one and sent the other to the cold palace.

This huge harem was originally cold and quiet due to the small number of concubines. Except for Weiyang Palace, the rest of the palace was no different. In addition, these concubines were put into the cold palace, and the other palaces in the palace were even more lonely.

Leng Gong bears the word "cold", and the more people go, the more lively it is.

But those concubines didn't dare to take the initiative to join Murong Qi's side, stayed in their own palace, no matter what, they had no shortage of food and clothing, went to the cold palace, the hustle and bustle turned to bustle, but lost their freedom, after all it was a loss.

As for the concubines who are already in the cold palace, Xu Shi has stayed there for many years, and their mood has changed from rejection at the beginning to gradually adapting.

Unlike other palaces where there is only one concubine, there are many concubines in Lenggong, plus the maids and eunuchs who serve them, it can indeed be regarded as the busiest place in the whole palace.

But after all, it was a cold palace, most of the maids and eunuchs were unwilling to stay here, and left the cold palace after thinking of a way.

Only Ruyi, since working in the cold palace 12 years ago, has never left.

A few years ago, there were people who argued that Ruyi was after all Concubine Hong's personal maid, even if she made a small mistake, the emperor would not let Ruyi stay in the cold palace for the sake of Concubine Hong.

Sooner or later one day will leave.

However, the phrase "sooner or later" has persisted until now.

"Ruyi, I heard that the emperor has taken a fancy to this year's new state and wants to marry him as his queen."

The news in the palace spread very quickly, and within a few days, it reached Ruyi's ears from the mouths of the maids and eunuchs.

Ruyi just pretends not to know, and still works diligently.

Over time, no one talked about it.

until this day.

"The emperor has ordered you to take care of Mr. Si."

Ruyi raised her head from a basin of clothes, the shock on her face: "Take care of Master Si?"

"Yeah, the emperor trusts you, so he asked you to take care of Sir Si," the little eunuch who sent the message smiled, but his tone was very serious. waited."

Ruyi knew that she had no choice at this time, so she washed her hands in the basin and said, "Elder-in-law, let me change clothes."

"It should, it should." The little eunuch nodded.

Ruyi lowered her head and walked slowly into her room.

Along the way, I received many envious looks.

There is no distinction between superiority and inferiority in the cold palace. There is not much difference between the concubines and the maids who are thrown into the cold palace. The maids say they serve the concubines, but their status is completely different from that outside the cold palace.

Even the ladies of the palace can move around freely in the palace, but the concubines can only be imprisoned in the cold palace.

But even so, the status of serving a concubine who has been thrown into the cold palace in the cold palace is completely different from serving outside, let alone serving the Lord Si who is said to be about to be sealed.

In fact, no one has restricted Ruyi's actions in these years, but she has rarely stepped out of the cold palace.

Now that such a "good" opportunity falls on her, others may be envious and jealous. As far as she is concerned, she would rather stay in this cold palace than go out, and don't want to think about those things 12 years ago.

It's a pity that she is just a little court lady, she has neither the courage nor the ability to disobey the emperor's order.

During these many years in the palace, she knows the seriousness and what can and cannot be done.

Thinking of this, she changed into fairly clean clothes, packed some usable things, simply filled a package, and left with the package on her back, following the little eunuch who came to summon her.

After Ruyi left, everyone in the cold palace looked at her enviously.

"I don't know when we can leave?"

"We are not the same as Ruyi. Ruyi used to be the great court lady next to Concubine Hong. The emperor still remembers her, so he can call her. How can we compare with Ruyi?"

"Yes, but it seems that the palace has become more and more silent these years."

"Yeah, I wonder if it will be more lively after the adoption of the prince?"

"Who knows?"

On the other side, Ruyi followed the little eunuch out of the cold palace and remained silent.

It was the little eunuch who spoke first: "Aunt Ruyi, Master Si has a good temper, even if he knows you are negligent, he will not argue with you. You know the emperor's temper. When you take care of Master Si, you must be careful. "

Ruyi lowered her head and smiled wryly, knowing that the little eunuch was reminding her not to cause trouble.

Everyone in the palace knew that she was Concubine Hong's close maid, and they all knew that she had stayed in the cold palace for Concubine Hong's sake, and that her loyal person was Concubine Hong, for fear that she would offend Lord Si Jinsi because of her personal emotions.

If so, why did you bring her out of the cold palace?

Ruyi couldn't help but feel a bit of chills in her heart, everyone said that the emperor loved this lord Si very much, she didn't believe it at first, but now it looks like, is it true that the newcomer is better than the old one?

So what is the purpose of sending her to Mr. Si's side?

In order to tell this Lord Si that Concubine Hong is completely gone?

Ruyi thought a lot along the way, her thoughts were complicated, but deep down she was more disappointed.

She thought that since the emperor had guarded the Concubine Hong for 12 years, he might guard her for the rest of her life. Now it seemed that the so-called sincerity was nothing more than that.

Ruyi's heart was heavy, and she couldn't tell what it was, after all, she was complaining about the red concubine.

It would be great if the Concubine Hong was still here...

"Here we are," the little eunuch turned back, "Aunt Ruyi, Master Si is currently living in Weiyang Palace, you must be vigilant when serving him, and you must not disturb the emperor."

Ruyi raised her head, looked at the word "Weiyang" on the top of her head, restrained her mind, and nodded: "Okay."

"You go to see Mr. Si first, and I will take you to the side hall for resettlement later." Arriving in front of Weiyang Palace, the little eunuch gradually showed respect to Ruyi's tone.

Ruyi nodded, and walked into Weiyang Palace with her burden on her back.

Since she agreed to leave the cold palace, she was ready to welcome the new master, but when she looked carefully at the ornaments around her and found that these ornaments were completely different from 12 years ago, she still felt sorry for the red concubine who had left long ago. Injustice.

When the Concubine Hong was still there, although she was also favored, she was always in the Qiwu Palace and rarely stepped into the Weiyang Palace.

But this Lord Si, I don’t know where he got into the eyes of the emperor. It’s only been a long time, and he has already lived in this Weiyang Palace. This kind of honor, let alone a concubine, has been a queen since ancient times, and he seldom moved directly. Stay in the emperor's bedroom.

Ruyi didn't want to look any further, she walked forward with her head down, and when she reached the imperial study room, she suddenly heard a small voice coming from the front.

She looked intently, and saw that the man was dressed in blue and was sitting on the horizontal ladder. His long hair was not tied up and was scattered freely. He was holding a book and looking down.

The sunlight outside the window happened to fall from a high place, and the fine light fell on him.

Ruyi raised her head in a daze, her eyes were full of astonishment.

She had thought about what this Lord Si, who made the emperor fall in love with him, looked like, and thought that since he could make the emperor fall in love with him, she should indeed be a beauty, but she didn't expect that the person in front of her was more shocking than she imagined.

The blue body under the sun is even more attractive than the blue sky outside.

Si Jin took the ladder to the bookshelf to find a book, and was unexpectedly attracted by the contents of the book, so she sat on it for a while.

Suddenly hearing a voice below, he looked down and met Ruyi's eyes.

Seeing Ruyi's eyes, he couldn't help laughing: "Come?"

Ruyi hurriedly knelt down: "Master Si, this servant is following the emperor's order to serve Mr. Si. I lost my mind for a moment. Please forgive me, Mr. Si."

"There's no need to be so polite between us." Si Jin smiled, walked down the ladder slowly, and stood in front of Ruyi, "I heard that you have been in limbo all these years?"

"Yes, the servant has been working in the cold palace." Ruyi said quickly, and subconsciously let out a sigh of relief when she heard the voice.

"Well, get up," Si Jin nodded, and walked to the desk, talking to Ruyi as she walked, "I heard that you used to serve the concubine Hong, and you should be able to live a good life in the palace after the concubine is gone." , why did you go to the cold palace?"

Ruyi followed Si Jin quietly, and subconsciously lowered her voice when she heard his words: "It was the servant who asked to go to the Leng Palace. The servant was unstable and was afraid of causing disaster, so he went to the Leng Palace."

"This way..." Si Jin said without any intention of revealing her identity to Ruyi, but just smiled, "I didn't expect you to be loyal to Concubine Hong, but it's a pity that you are gone long ago. Even the best person, a generation It is only natural for newcomers to replace old ones.”

Ruyi raised her head suddenly, wanting to argue with Si Jin, but accidentally hit Si Jin directly on the face.

Earlier when Si Jin was sitting on the ladder, she looked up and thought that Mr. Si had a very good appearance, but she had no extra thoughts.

Now that she looked at it head-on, she realized that the rumors she had heard before were actually true.

"you……"

This Lord Si is actually seven or eight points similar to the Red Concubine Empress, and even more colorful than the Red Concubine Empress.

No wonder... no wonder the emperor took a fancy to this Lord Si at a glance.

No wonder Master Si moved to Weiyang Palace not long ago.

No wonder there are rumors outside that the emperor wants to make Mrs. Si the empress, but no one has any objection.

Si Jin lifted the book in his hand, patted it on the palm of his hand, and smiled lightly: "What? You also want to say that I look like a concubine Hong?"

"Slave overstepping the rules, Lord Si please forgive me." Ruyi quickly knelt down.

"What's there to care about? It's not the first time I've heard such words. Get up, you didn't say anything, so what can you blame?" Si Jin still had a smile on her face.

"Yes," Ruyi stood up cautiously, the corner of her eyes couldn't help falling on Si Jin, and said in a low voice, "The red concubine loves red very much, Mrs. Si..."

"Is it red?" Si Jin lowered her eyes and smiled, "I think blue has a special flavor, isn't blue good-looking?"

Ruyi glanced at him quietly, and couldn't help but compare the person in front of her with the former Concubine Hong.

The red concubine is naturally beautiful, especially when she is dressed in red.

But she had to admit that the blue suit worn by the person in front of her was also very good, it was completely different from Concubine Hong, and it made her feel bright.

Ruyi bowed her head: "It looks good."

Si Jin laughed and shook the book in her hand: "You just came, go pack your bags first, and come back later."

Ruyi's head pressed even lower: "Yes, Mr. Si, this slave and servant will retire."
