Why was she blaming the Empress tho? Mei is the one with the wrong idea all along. Ruyi didn't _let_ her think wrong. Ruyi didn't even know what she was thinking...geez The Emperor and everybody in the harem blamed everything on Ruyi. 🤦🏾♀️
She just wanted to die. Committing suicide was a serious crime, and the whole family was punished for several generations. And thus how she got what she wanted only for herself. So sad actually, concubine Mei was an ambitious woman
There is another reason. Since, Mei and Concubine Qing are people recommended by empress dowager, emperor know that empress dowager always try to control him or get involve in everything decision he make. So, i think he is the one who instructed Mei to poisoned Qing because if she get pregnant it will only strengthen empress dowager influence.
