royal palace.
Bai Ruoying was brought before the emperor.
Song Yuhe went along too.
Fearing that Bai Ruofu would be too tired, he had someone take her around to see the sights of the palace.
Just keep walking until you reach the Empress's Kunning Palace.
When you get tired, you can ride in a sedan chair.
In short, Bai Ruofu was arranged in a very clear and logical way.
-
As she passed by a palace, Bai Ruofu vaguely heard the sound of many people beating one person inside...
The palace servants told her that this was the palace where the Fifth Prince lived.
The Fifth Prince's mother was caught having an affair by the Emperor.
His mother was subjected to steaming punishment.
If the Fifth Prince hadn't resembled the Emperor, he probably would have been executed as well.
The emperor never saw him again after that.
People in the palace are used to flattering the powerful and belittling the weak.
The fifth prince, despised by the emperor, was probably not even as good as a servant.
Bai Ruofu didn't say anything on the surface and let the servants continue walking.
However, under the pretext of having her personal maid find a handkerchief for her, she was asked to go back and give some loose silver to the Fifth Prince, Song Yuyin.
No matter where you are, silver is the most useful thing.
Song Yuyin was imprisoned, but he was, after all, of royal blood and Song Yuhe's younger brother.
If the emperor remembers him one day, he might very well stage a comeback.
So it's best not to go against him.
If possible, please take care of him a little.
Now that Bai Ruofu has married Prince Sheng, she and Prince Sheng are one.
Unwittingly drawn into the royal power struggle.
She had her own plans, but little did she know...
This scheme was the only ray of light Song Yuyin encountered in this deep palace.
He huddled in the corner, holding the loose silver coins that Bai Ruofu had sent him.
He had just sneaked out through the dog hole and saw the stunningly beautiful woman; his heart was pounding so hard it felt like it would burst out of his chest…
Song Yuyin knew that Bai Ruofu was just a concubine of Prince Sheng, but she was very favored.
She used to be an illegitimate daughter at home, and her elder sister took many things from her. Her elder sister used those things to build herself into the most talented woman in Yun Dynasty.
But she should be the talented woman.
Now that the truth has come out, she will soon be officially recognized as the wife.
From then on, Bai Ruofu became his third sister-in-law...
Sister-in-law...
Song Yuyin recalled the vulgar gossip she had overheard from the eunuchs, including stories about uncles and aunts having affairs...
His cheeks flushed red instantly.
I hate myself for having such thoughts.
This was practically a desecration for Bai Ruofu, a person as pure as crystal...
-
When Bai Ruoying's affair was exposed, she was imprisoned for the crime of deceiving the emperor; the Minister's wife, Wang Lianzhu, was also convicted and imprisoned.
Aunt Liu and Bai Ruofu were both promoted to official positions.
The Emperor spared their lives because they were still Bai Ruofu's blood relatives.
But they are to spend the rest of their lives in prison repenting.
but……
Neither Wang Lianzhu nor Bai Ruoying were content to stay at home.
The two of them were arguing so fiercely.
They started arguing and then started fighting.
They ripped off a large chunk of the other person's scalp.
The jailers, annoyed by the sound, resorted to physical violence or branding them with red-hot irons.
Not long after, the two died in extreme pain from the infection.
-
Before we knew it, it was New Year's Eve, the royal banquet.
This was Bai Ruofu's first time attending a major event as Princess Consort of Prince Sheng.
She made many preparations for this—
Clothing, etiquette, understanding the people attending the banquet...
Song Yuhe said, "Afu, you're so charming, even if you really did something wrong, no one would have the heart to blame you..."
