The Emperor patronised her because of her father, whom was useful in his court. He didn't want to let her know how he truly felt about Ruyi, so just went along with her on the surface. He didn't punish the Empress then because it would look bad if his actions hurt the relationship between him and the Empress, who were supposed to be the role model of the whole nation. Also, it would damage his reputation as the Emperor.
Things aren't that simple. Everyone related to the court, whether a servant or official or concubine, has a whole network of relations to be mindful of. The Emperor seems like he has all power, but he also has to balance his ministers, his own family (the Dowager specifically), his women (and their clans, which are also influential), and the whole entire country (you don't want an uprising, do you). Ruyi may be the favoured concubine, but the Empress outranks her and she is from the influential Fuca clan. So, as the Emperor, until he has iron-clad evidence (which he doesn't at this point), he can't take decisive action against her. All he can do at this point is to pretend that all is fine while investigations are still ongoing. It's also not to alert the wrongdoers involved (Empress and her gang) that he is investigating them.
高氏果然蠢到上天了🤣🤣🤣🤣
No surprise that the emperor preferred Baj Ruiji (Mei) instead of Hui Guifei. She gives me a headache with that care or hers xD
皇上的眼神：李玉你敢真的燒你就死定了
对对对😂
李玉怕怕😂😂😂
幸好李玉有点眼色
He is the emperor. Why would he let her tell him what he can keep ? Why didn't he punish the Empress for what she did to Ruyi.

And also Empress will tell her clan they'd withdraw support for the Emperor
