Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace

3

Episode 51

4

Mistress, hurry up.

5

His Majesty is already waiting at the sleeping palace for you.

6

Okay, I know.

7

Mistress, I'm going to get your clothes.

8

Her Lady will be done with her bath soon. Stack up these clothes now.

9

Yes.

10

Where's the apron undergarment?

11

Your Highness, Xiao Ruizi is here.

12

Let him in.

13

Greetings, Your Highness.

14

- Rise.

- Thank you, Your Highness.

15

How is it?

16

To answer Your Highness, Imperial Physician Jiang rushed his way back to the capital

17

But when he passed by Shandong, don't know if it was because of exhaustion or due to improper intake, he developed diarrhea.

18

He got delayed for a few days. Now, he is better and rushing to return to the capital.

19

He's sick?

20

Then, what about Yongqi and Consort Shut?

21

All are fine. Fifth Prince condition has improved.

22

For Consort Shu, other than being weak, there is no other problems.

23

I am at ease then.

24

Leave and have your rest. Thank you.

25

Yes.

26

Your Highness Empress... Something bad happened to Lord Ling.

27

What is it?

28

Tonight, it was supposed to be Noble Consort Jia attending to His Majesty in his chambers. Who knew that when House Momo was preparing the clothes of Noble Consort Jia,

29

she noticed that Noble Consort Jia lingerie is missing. Li Yu led some men to investigate.

30

In the end, they found it in the wardrobe of Lord Ling.

31

Ling Yunche? Li Yu found it?

32

Yes. So many people saw it.

33

His Majesty got so mad. Noble Consort Jia kept asking His Majesty to execute Lord Ling.

34

Lord Ling has been tortured. Eunuch Li relayed a message asking for your suggestion.

35

Let's go to His Majesty.

36

I didn't!

37

So, did I falsely accuse you?

38

Stop! Her Highness Empress is here! Stop making it bloody.

39

I...didn't...

40

Your Majesty, this is a great insult. It's better that I just die.

41

Your Majesty, I don't want to live anymore.

42

You won't die.

43

Greetings, Your Majesty.

44

Empress, you're also here this late?

45

For the imperial harem to be not peaceful, it's a negligence in my duty.

46

It's not your fault. It's the hands of the people around me that was dirty.

47

Doing such a shameless act.

48

Li Yu!

49

Your Majesty.

50

They said that the lingerie of Noble Consort Jia disappeared and was found in the bedroom of the guards, is that right?

51

Yes. The Momo's noticed that Noble Consort Jia's lingerie was missing.

52

I dare sent people to quietly look for it.

53

In the end...

54

In the end, among the clothes of Guard Ling,

55

we found this.

56

Noble Consort Jia, is that your lingerie?

57

Of course, it's mine. His Majesty said that color suits me.

58

His Majesty likes it. Isn't it, Your Majesty.

59

Let's not talk about those now.

60

Your Majesty...

61

Your Majesty...

62

Your Majesty, for something like that to happen around you, you indeed should give strict punishment.

63

But after hearing it, I felt that this matter might seem so seamlessly obvious,

64

you have evidences to backed it, however, there seems to be something that's off.

65

Your Highness Empress already said that it is seamless and you have evidences to backed it,

66

what else would be strange then?

67

Noble Consort Jia, if someone really stole this delicate clothing of yours,

68

he should be hiding it close to him.

69

Why would he placed it in a side room where there are a lot of people?

70

Is he deliberately waiting for other people to find it?

71

Greetings, Mistress Ling.

72

Your Majesty, Guard Ling has loyally serve you ever since.

73

If this matter is a scheme to frame him, if you kill him out of a moment of anger,

74

you will have one less loyal servant by your side.

75

The grievances of Noble Consort Jia will also be in vain.

76

Your Highness Empress, are you asking for leniency for that shameless person?

77

I am thinking for the sake of His Majesty. This is the first southern patrol of His Majesty since he ascended to the throne.

78

He aims to imitate the sacred journey of Shengzhu in understanding the true situations of citizens and to promote his imperial graces.

79

If because of your matter, we kill a guard,

80

and this matter gets out, it might spread as some scandal

81

and destroy the reputation of His Majesty.

82

I want to see His Majesty.

83

Yes.

84

Greetings, Your Majesty and Your Highness Empress.

85

Why are you here?

86

I heard that something bad happened in your chamber. I was afraid that you'll be so mad and hurt your health, so I rushed towards here.

87

Who knows if you're really worried about His Majesty or is here to laugh at me.

88

Enough! Lessen your words.

89

Yes.

90

But Your Majesty, I heard what Her Highness Empress said while at the door earlier.

91

I think that what she said is very reasonable.

92

Actually, mistakenly killing a Guard Ling is not some big deal,

93

but tainting your reputation is a major matter.

94

Why don't Your Majesty just let an eyesore not stay by your side?

95

Just drive him far away, since as long as you don't see it, it won't affect you.

96

Consort Ling's suggestion is a good compromise.

97

Your Majesty, you heard it! After suffering such great insult,

98

Her Highness Empress and Consort Ling are even begging for leniency for that lowly guard.

99

Noble Consort Jia, Consort Ling and I are doing this for the reputation of the imperial family.

100

Why must you publicize this? Can't you think for His Majesty's sake?

101

Fine.

102

Li Yu, give my order to send Ling Yunche to the Mulan Hunting Grounds

103

as a sweeper. He is not allowed to return to the capital anymore.

104

Yes.

105

With such a huge thing like this happening,

106

Your Majesty, you must be tired today. Rest early.

107

Noble Consort Jia might also be unable to attend to you well tonight. I'll send someone to escort her back.

108

Consort Ling, stay.

109

- Yes.

- Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

110

Ling Yunche is heavily injured this time. He needs to recuperate a little before setting out.

111

Your Highness, don't worry. I will arrange for a safe place for him,

112

so he can recuperate, before sending him to Lanmu Hunting Grounds.

113

I'll leave everything to you then.

114

Yes.

115

In Your Highness' opinion, who schemed against Lord Ling tonight?

116

Could it be Noble Consort Jia set him up herself?

117

Noble Consort Jia has no grudges with Guard Ling.

118

Moreover, why will she destroy her own reputation?

119

Who could it be that will want the life of Guard Ling?

120

Your Highness, could it be she is targeting you?

121

Maybe.

122

But why is Consort Ling being good to Guard Ling?

123

She even came to beg leniency for him.

124

Tomorrow, deliver some medicines to Guard Ling.

125

Yes.

126

At the last moment, Mistress,

127

why did you hesitate?

128

Now that Ling Yunche didn't die, all of the efforts of Eunuch Jinzhong was in vain.

129

He surely will not easily let this go.

130

He's just an eunuch. You think I'll be afraid of him?

131

Mistress.

132

Greetings, Mistress Ling.

133

I came to tell you

134

that you must be extra careful in attending His Majesty.

135

Don't let His Majesty notice that even if you are by his side,

136

your heart is with Ling Yunche.

137

So what if I don't want Ling Yunche to die?

138

So what?

139

You tell me. You told me to eliminate Ling Yunche.

140

I did it, but you went to beg for leniency. What do you mean by that?

141

I do want to get rid of Ling Yunche.

142

But I don't wish him dead.

143

Since he's been kicked out now, it's the same.

144

It was me who owed him back then and now it's paying back.

145

But Jin Zhong, if you're someone who can be content,

146

we can ask for wealthy and glory together.

147

But if this incident becomes an issue,

148

Empress will want to preserve her savior Ling Yunche.

149

And she will give me a break here or there.

150

But you, if Noble Consort Jia finds out?

151

You had her shamed. She will have you killed first thing.

152

Yanwan. Your wings have hardened.

153

So you're really unafraid that His Majesty will find out you and him were a thing in the past?

154

You dare to threaten me?

155

Then let's go our separate ways.

156

You can go ahead and tell His Majesty.

157

How did I beg you back then in order to climb up?

158

How did I agree to you?

159

I will watch and see if His Majesty will loathe you or loathe me more.

160

Great. Very great.

161

You forgot the suffering you had at Noble Consort Jia's then.

162

If it weren't for me, would you have the pampering of today?

163

Eunuch Jin Zhong, look how you're speaking.

164

That's unfair of you to say that to my mistress.

165

My mistress is only devoted to serving HIs Majesty.

166

And she also remembers you and her partnership.

167

If it weren't for her fear that if Emperor, Empress and Noble Consort kept going last night, you might become exposed.

168

So my mistress wouldn't have chased Ling Yunche out.

169

To finish this issue.

170

Mistress Ling. I also cherish you.

171

Your pampering didn't come easily so you ought to treasure it.

172

Jin Zhong, don't forget now.

173

You and I are roped together.

174

Don't be brash now.

175

Don't let Empress and Li Yu find out you did this.

176

Yes, your servant is aware.

177

Then your servant has chores left, hence must leave first.

178

Mistress, keep your anger at bay.

179

Empress knows you were wronged unfairly.

180

But this incident is linked to the honor of the harem.

181

And due to His Majesty's reputation, we can't investigate outright.

182

So Empress told me to bring no-worry-berries (soapberries) to you.

183

Empress. She wishes for me to be worry free?

184

No worry and no trouble is something no one can achieve.

185

But Empress said soapberries are tolerant to cold and heat, as well as chill-resistant.

186

She wants you to be, no matter where you are,

187

to be able to endure a temporary bitterness for future prospect.

188

She also said, you did not leave proudly.

189

If you want to come back, you must do so proudly and properly.

190

Empress wishes for me to return?

191

Naturally. Did you think she wanted you to keep you at Mulan Paddock,

192

and cut off all things and be defeated?

193

The grace of Empress I have no way to repay.

194

Much gratitude to Empress.

195

And also Consort Ling who made a plea on my behalf.

196

Take care of yourself.

197

Thank you, Madam Rong Pei.

198

199

Her Highness is here.

200

Greetings, Your Highness.

201

You don't need to stand up.

202

You only got back to the capital last night and you rushed to Chuxiu Palace today?

203

I was worried. Hence, I'm here to take a look at you.

204

Just that I'm in this state now.

205

I feel ashamed to face you and Emperor.

206

His Majesty is still busy at Yangxin Palace. I came to see you first.

207

We are all women. We needn't be mindful of these.

208

These days, Sister Shu would only see me too.

209

Actually you and the child are the priority. All else can be healed.

210

I hope so.

211

Mistress, Imperial Physician Jiang is here to take your pulse.

212

Tell him to come in now.

213

No need to greet me. Hurry and tell me how Consort Shu is.

214

Consort Shu is just suffering from a weak kidney and having pregnancy spots.

215

Everything else is nothing of issue.

216

Pregnancy spots, once you put on some powder, you can't really seem them easily.

217

Sister Shu's beauty has always been outstanding among the wives.

218

So she must treasure it especially and it's that much harder.

219

It's a common thing to have weak kidney in pregnancy.

220

Once your child is born and you take your time to heal, it will all be alright in time.

221

How is the baby?

222

All is well.

223

I will go now and prescribe a few more fetus stabilizing medicines.

224

Fine.

225

Fortunately, the baby is fine.

226

Yes. The child is fine and that's all that matters.

227

As for the rest, it's not that important.

228

Yes. This is me and His Majesty's child. So great.

229

Emperor, Consort Shu should be close to her due date?

230

Soon.

231

Consort Shu has a weak kidney in pregnancy.

232

And it's her first child so she can't manage all alone.

233

But she is too anxious to send the baby to Xiefang Hall.

234

I am idle. Once the child is born,

235

how about we bring it here to be raised here?

236

Royal Mother, this isn't your first time being a grandmother. You still love babies so much?

237

Consort Shu was someone I recommended to you.

238

So it pangs me more.

239

What do you think, Emperor?

240

I fear Consort Shu couldn't spare it.

241

Consort Shu can't spare then we can just have her come to Cining Palace often.

242

This child is still in the womb.

243

And Consort Shu is already sickly.

244

What if you and the child has a faint fate?

245

And you block each other.

246

It's better to just let me raise it.

247

You're right, Royal Mother.

248

With your careful nurturing, it's Consort Shu and her baby's blessing.

249

Lower the sedan.

250

Greetings, Your Majesty.

251

Rise.

252

Li Yu, while in Hangzhou, Empress and I,

253

as well as Consort Ling and Astronomy Bureau discussed star signs.

254

We discussed Consort Shu's child but we didn't make it a public news.

255

You go find out who brought the words to Royal Mother.

256

Yes, I shall go and summon the astrologist soon.

257

Your Majesty, if it weren't by your order, no one dares to make the issue public.

258

Just that, when I was at the temporary palace that day and on my way out after hearing the astrologist,

259

I saw Concubine Mei waiting outside saying she wanted to see you.

260

But I remembered she didn't come to see you that day.

261

Maybe Concubine Mei heard something and got caught by Concubine Ling.

262

About this...

263

Sister Mei, you're here to see His Majesty?

264

I know you're favored. But I can't come see him too?

265

I will help you to tell him then.

266

No need.

267

Summon Concubine Mei for me.

268

His Majesty, Sir Fu Heng has been waiting for quite some time to see you.

269

Then send Fu Heng in first.

270

Li Yu, have Concubine Mei come in after evening. The rest, leave.

271

Yes.

272

I'm taking my leave.

273

Greetings to Concubine Mei.

274

I was just going to go to Yonghe Palace but I ran into you here.

275

What's it for?

276

His Majesty asks you to go to Yangxin Hall after dark to talk.

277

His Majesty wants to see me? After dark?

278

It's not over tag flipping for bed service.

279

His Majesty's royal order. You just go along then.

280

I got it.

281

Mistress, it's bad.

282

What's happened?

283

His Majesty summoned Madam Bai Ruiji to Yangxin Hall.

284

Last time at Hangzhou palace,

285

Empress Dowager made such a mention and I still didn't see His Majesty pay attention to Bai Ruiji.

286

Why is he suddenly wanting to speak to her and so serious.

287

His Majesty must have something to ask her.

288

I heard it and knew right away it was strange to came to tell you.

289

Very good.

290

Last time, Noble Consort Chun spoke too much.

291

And she mentioned Empress Xiaoxian falling in water incident before Empress and Bai Ruiji was acting strange.

292

Maybe Empress said something to cause Emperor to be suspicious.

293

To ask Bai Ruiji about it?

294

If she gets me involved, then it's not good.

295

Mistress, we must think of a way quickly.

296

It's my fault for faltering and leaving such a seed for trouble.

297

I won't be soft ever again.

298

Mistress, what is this?

299

I brought this from my home.

300

Take it and add some to Bai Ruiji's food.

301

You must do this cautiously.

302

Then I shall go first.

303

[ Yonghe Palace ]

304

Enough. Qixiang Palace ones are tested. Take them in.

305

Yes.

306

Wait.

307

Let me see the Yonghe Palace ones so I can test them too.

308

You are so nice, Lixin.

309

Yonghe Palace isn't favored but you still help them.

310

My mistress once lost pampering too.

311

We pity those who aren't favored, so I want to help.

312

Qixiang Palace personnel could be so kind-hearted?

313

To even test Yonghe Palace food for them?

314

Attention uncalled for must have suspicion to it.

315

Thanks to you too, and wipe some sweat now.

316

Thank you, Sister Lixin.

317

Alright.

318

Go.

319

Mistress, the junior eunuch who delivered dinner said,

320

Qixiang Palace was testing poison for food and did ours too.

321

Do we still test again?

322

If you want to test it, go get the silver needle. If not, never mind.

323

Qixiang Palace can't be wanting to poison me to death?

324

Yes.

325

Qixiang Palace bothers to make effort to test for you.

326

You don't find it meddlesome?

327

I think, though you don't frequent around the palace after your illness,

328

you still trust Qixiang Palace.

329

Greetings to Empress.

330

Greetings to Consort Yu.

331

What leisure mindset brings you two here to Yonghe Palace today? Please sit.

332

You all leave.

333

Empress and I were just passing by Qixiang Palace.

334

We saw Lixin testing for poison for you and found it suspicious to we came around here to see.

335

Consort Yu, I don't have much business with Qixiang Palace.

336

But her well-intentions, I needn't be suspicious of.

337

If this is the reason that causes you suspicion,

338

then I can use my silver needle to test for you.

339

The silver needle hasn't changed in color.

340

Consort Yu, you are being petty here.

341

Good if it's nothing.

342

Just that what kind of person Noble Consort Jia of Qixiang Palace really is.

343

You and I both have some ideas.

344

She shows sudden great concern for you.

345

Consort Yu and I came just to remind you to be careful.

346

Thank you for your concern. I know right and wrong.

347

Noble Consort Jia shouldn't have defamed your honor in order to fight for position.

348

But the incident has passed and the punishment done.

349

Why bother bringing up such things with me again.

350

If you're so worried, I'll have my parrot eat it.

351

I feel bloated from the medication and can't eat anyway.

352

I heard you were feeling ill lately. Is the medicine helping?

353

It's not much. I just don't like walking around.

354

After I take medicine, I just want quiet rest.

355

Empress, I took some medicine not long ago and I would like to rest alone now.

356

Fine then. You rest up.

357

Sending Empress off with honor.

358

Empress!

359

This parrot. It was just fine.

360

I will send your dinner to Jiang Yubin to check if anything wrong.

361

Concubine Mei. You don't think now Qixiang Palace is trying to poison your parrot to death, right?

362

Mistress, His Majesty summoned you to go to Yangxin Palace. It's time now.

363

Empress. I need to go serve His Majesty.

364

You and Consort Yu's well-intention. I misunderstood you.

365

Let me bid you my apology.

366

You hurry and go to Yangxin Hall now.

367

If any news from Jiang Yubin, I will let you know.

368

Yes.

369

So scary.

370

Someone almost died just now.

371

This palace, someone dies is such an easy matter.

372

We can only live in fright.

373

This is suffocating me to death.

374

Concubine Mei was favored but she lost her son and the favor.

375

She only had that little joyful period of her life and the rest is darkness.

376

What Concubine Mei cared about the most in life

377

was the incident of losing her son.

378

If it weren't for that child-losing, she wouldn't have lost her health and her favor.

379

She's pitiful indeed.

380

But I don't see her and Noble Consort Jia spending much time together either.

381

Noble Consort Jia wanting her death like this.

382

There must be a reason we aren't aware of.

383

At Hangzhou temporary palace, you and Concubine Qing performed together.

384

I didn't bother attending to you on the account of Concubine Qing.

385

Do you know why?

386

I know I've been sick for a long time.

387

And my appearance is less than before.

388

I can't easily arouse your interest.

389

I have no words of resentment.

390

All your life, you lived for others.

391

You never really lived for yourself. You really don't resent it?

392

There are so many things for me to resent.

393

I just don't know which to resent then.

394

I know you resent the most about our child being harmed.

395

But I want to ask you. Who brought you to this place?

396

To let you be wrapped in resentment but with nothing in the end?

397

- Your Majesty.

- Royal Mother hid you so well.

398

On the surface, it was Concubine Qing and Consort Shu that she sent to me.

399

But in the dark, she had already placed you long ago.

400

If it weren't for you being a suspicion this time.

401

Then I wouldn't have had someone look into your background.

402

Your Majesty knew it all.

403

I know your health is weak.

404

You can get up and talk.

405

What did you say?

406

Concubine Mei went to Yangxin Hall to see His Majesty?

407

Then she didn't get a chance to eat dinner?

408

It must be the case. Or else she wouldn't be alive to see him.

409

But seeing how it's quiet in the palace,

410

His Majesty only just conversed with her and nothing else.

411

I still don't feel at ease.

412

I need to find an opportunity to get rid of her soon.

413

[ Royal Physician's Court ]

414

Greetings to Concubine Mei.

415

Where's my medicine?

416

You needn't come. When the medicine is done, it will be delivered to you.

417

No. I want to see for myself.

418

Yes. This way, please.

419

This way.

420

[ Concubine Mei ]

421

[ Noble Consort Jia ]

422

[ Concubine Qing ]

423

Your Highness, be careful. I need to add medicine.

424

This is for me?

425

Yes.

426

Wait.

427

You smell this yourself. What is this smell?

428

It's already damp and you still boil it?

429

No wonder it's useless.

430

This. Can't be.

431

You want to fool me?

432

No.

433

Hurry and change to better.

434

Yes.

435

Greetings to Empress.

436

Get on up.

437

How's the investigation with Concubine Mei's food?

438

There's nothing wrong with the food.

439

But in the rice, someone mixed in some powder.

440

It's not a common poison.

441

I used silver needle to test it and the needle didn't change color.

442

I then fed it to the cat in the royal physician's court.

443

The cat had convulsion and heart palpitation and died.

444

The death was similar to that parrot's.

445

This must not have come from the royal kitchen.

446

It's likely done by Qixiang Palace.

447

Concubine Mei is a sensible person.

448

She will think through it.

449

And she will tell you why Noble Consort Jia wants to harm her.

450

I have another matter to report to you.

451

Go ahead.

452

When His Majesty was out on patrol, Consort Shu had edema from pregnancy.

453

I looked at the prescription done by the royal physician's court.

454

There were two medicines in there that shouldn't fare. One of them is Akebia and the other is Euphorbia.

455

These two herbs are great medicines that hydrate.

456

It's no trouble for ordinary people to use.

457

But if used upon someone who suffers from kidney weakness, it will be harmful to the kidney.

458

Consort Shu took conception medicine for a long time.

459

Is that harmful to the kidney?

460

Consort Shu did indeed have her kidney harmed from years of drinking conception medicine.

461

Someone who is pregnant usually suffers from kidney ailment.

462

But she only developed the spots due to the medicine.

463

Then does the physician that treats Concubine Shu know this?

464

I can't be sure. Physician Qi is already dead.

465

Some things he may not have told his peers.

466

Unless the physician who prescribed that medicine had already seen Consort Shu's conception prescription from before.

467

But still insist putting these two medicines in.

468

Tell me, do you think Consort Shu's kidney ailment can affect the fetus?

469

This is something I have not dare to tell Consort Shu.

470

I don't want her to be upset. Pregnant mother's kidney ailment will go to the fetus.

471

She not only did not see improvements, she's suffered more loss.

472

So the fetus could not have gotten stronger.

473

And I suddenly contracted an illness while in Shandong.

474

It was diarrhea that appeared in an unlikely time.

475

It barred me from treating Consort Shu in the golden time.

476

You also find your illness at Shandong unusual?

477

Yes.

478

But I have no evidence.

479

We can only worry about the baby in Consort Shu's womb now.

480

I understand.

481

Mistress, I got the restoration tonic.

482

You should drink it while it's warm.

483

This medicine is so bitter.

484

I hope after I drink it,

485

I can be pregnant with a royal heir sooner.

486

You will. You surely will.

487

Mistress. You playing such a tune chills me upon hearing it.

488

I was playing it for that parrot.

489

To have him go to the netherworld with some ease.

490

It's just a parrot.

491

Don't get too sad over it.

492

I'm not sad.

493

He went to wait for me.

494

Mistress, what are you talking about?

495

Nothing.

496

This whole life of mine, I made wedding dresses for others.

497

Mistress.

498

The deadline looms. Nothing matters now.

499

Everyone wants my life.

500

Come and get it then.

501

What's happened?

502

Sister.

503

What's wrong with her?

504

Last night, she already took medicine to stop blood collapse.

505

But I don't know why her stomach's been hurting till now.

506

Where's the royal physician?

507

Physician Bao came by to see already.

508

He went to test the medicine residue.

509

How is it?

510

It hurts.

511

Greetings to mistresses.

512

Hurry and get up. What's happened to her?

513

Thank you, Your Highness.

514

Concubine Qing's blood restoration medicine.

[ Royal Physician Bao ]

515

Someone put Achyranthes and Aconite in it.

516

These last few days, she's been having menstrual.

517

She already suffers from uterine bleeding. How could she handle this?

518

This medicine was boiled in the royal physician's court.

519

Go and have a look there.

520

I'll send someone there right away.

521

- Yexin.

- Yes.

522

No need to investigate.

523

I did it.

524

You?

525

You? You and I got along though.

526

I don't want to get along anymore.

527

I don't want to see you favored. That's it.

528

This Concubine Mei, has she gone nuts?

529

What does she gain from harming Concubine Qing?

530

I don't know either.

531

The incident happened and she confessed right away.

532

It's asking to die.

533

Concubine Mei knows Concubine Qing is from me.

534

But she dares to touch her. There's got to be a story to it.

535

Empress Dowager, we can't find out anymore.

536

His Majesty wants to grand death to Concubine Mei.

537

Then what about Concubine Qing? Did they save her?

538

Her life is preserved but her health foundation is harmed.

539

She won't ever get to be pregnant again.

540

That poisonous woman.

541

She lost her own kid.

542

But she wants Concubine Qing to be infertile too.

543

She didn't confess about me, right?

544

She didn't. Concubine Mei only confessed her own crime and nothing else.

545

Emperor wants to have her dead and that's fine too.

546

It spares me from worrying.

547

Empress, it's His Majesty's command.

548

May you witness Concubine Mei be granted death personally.

549

Don't let it be known.

550

I got it.

551

Mistress, Aunt Suoxin is here.

552

Mistress.

553

Greetings to Empress.

554

Get on up.

555

Eunuch Li.

- Suoxin is here.

556

Then, I'll take my leave.

557

Did it go well?

558

All well.

559

I prepared the sacrificial offering and the joss sticks overnight.

560

I chose an auspicious site with good fengshui.

561

I put Concubine Mei and her son's birth pillars and characters.

562

And I arranged for a Buddhist memorial service before the hour of Rat.

563

I hope the two mother and son pair can reunite in the ground.

564

That's good then.

565

You can say this is to grant a wish of Concubine Mei's.
