[Forum Thread] Help! After the woman in the Cold Palace fell, the entire harem came down with Ruyi Syndrome! [Hot] [Explosive]
Poster · Front-Row Gossip:
Does anyone else get it?! The day Consort Xian was sent to the Cold Palace, I thought we were in for a tragic story from the start. Then, the whole thing took a wild turn!
A bizarre illness called “Ruyi Syndrome” swept through the harem. Its symptoms were absurd: you had to praise Consort Xian in increasingly elaborate ways whenever you met someone, your mind automatically worshipped her as an empress, and patients in the late stages would frantically try to match her with the honest guard outside the Cold Palace. Everyone caught it, from the emperor to the servants sweeping the grounds. It spread faster than smallpox.
At court, the emperor suddenly starts saying, “Ruyi is a natural beauty,” while the officials all pretend to be deaf. Noble Consort Gao begins hand-copying Ruyi's sayings. Jinyuyan says, “It's all for the prince,” but her actions tell another story as she adds, “Ruyi comes right after the prince.” Lady Hai has officially declared herself the head of the shipper fan club. The Imperial Hospital's verdict: “They're beyond help. Just wait for them to get married.”
Meanwhile, Ruyi herself in the Cold Palace: polishing her nail guards, paying her respects to a dry well, embroidering handkerchiefs for cash, and patting Ling Yunche on the shoulder as she tells him, “You're a good man, brother.” She has no idea the outside world has already gone mad over her.
Ling Yunche: “What? I'm just a gate guard.”
The only cure for Ruyi Syndrome: Ruyi and Ling Yunche falling truly in love and getting their happy ending.
