TV Series: When the Villain Chooses to Stand by

In fact, Jin Yuyan saw it, but she was smart enough not to say anything.

The last incident was finally over, and she didn't want to make everyone unhappy today.

"Princess Chun, a few days ago, Yongzhang and Yonglian went to ask the emperor for permission to study together in the upper study. The emperor has already agreed."

"The Emperor means that since I have entered the Upper Study, I must move to the South Third Residence. It needs to be properly renovated and furnished. I will leave this matter to you to oversee."

Concubine Chun was very surprised and quickly stood up to express her gratitude.

"I will obey the Empress's command and do my best to repay her kindness."

"Get up. If you need anything, please tell me. The servants there must be carefully selected so as not to delay the two princes' studies."

Concubine Chun looked up quietly and saw that the queen really did not show any displeasure, and the last trace of uneasiness in her heart disappeared.

She was originally unaware of this matter.

Yong Zhang told this story after he returned from the Yangxin Palace. Concubine Chun, who was embroidering at the time, was so frightened that she immediately threw away the embroidery hoop and asked about it.

They were afraid that the Queen would think that Yongzhang was vying for favor. As God knows, they, mother and son, had no improper intentions.

The queen's position was stable, and Yonglian showed his intelligence and love of learning at a young age, and was very kind to his siblings.

The child himself knew that Yongzhang had average talent for studying, and that he could only have a smooth future if he made good friends with the eldest son.

Not to mention these distant things, Yong Zhang, who follows Yonglian, can also get more attention from the emperor.

Although Concubine Chun was very reluctant to admit it, these were all facts. It was not that the emperor did not value Yongzhang. After all, he only had these two princes.

It's just that he has too many things to do and can only see his more outstanding children.

She herself was not very favored and could not help Yong Zhang in any way.

Fortunately, Yong Zhang was not a thoughtful person and had a very cheerful personality under the care of his brothers and sisters, which gave Chunpin a little comfort.

Seeing them talking about the princess and the prince, Ruyi felt a little lost for a moment. She touched her belly with both hands and looked at the ground with a heavy gaze.

His lips moved, but in the end he couldn't suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart.

"Yongzhang is not yet old enough to go to the study. I have heard that Prince Yonglian studies very hard. If Yongzhang cannot keep up with the progress, he will be sad."

"Sister Chunpin, there's no need to worry. The princes have attendants in the Shangshufang, so they won't be lonely."

Seeing that Ruyi started to interfere in Yongzhang's affairs again, Chunpin wanted to slap her twice.

Now she is the head of a palace and is qualified to raise her own son, but she still cannot forget the fear that Ruyi brought to her at that time.

"What do you mean, sister? Are you saying that I don't consider Yong Zhang?"

"Why are you so anxious? I don't understand. Why don't you explain it clearly, sister? There's no need to be so vague and make people guess."

When Concubine Chun said this, she held the handrail beside her tightly, as if she would explode in the next second if what Ruyi said was not to her liking.

Ruyi blinked and looked at Chunpin innocently, not expecting her to react so strongly.

"I have no other intentions. I just feel sorry for Yongzhang, as he is still young. He could have taken it easy for another year. Sister Chunpin, there is no need to be so excited."

"What Noble Lady Xian said is very interesting. The Empress is the legitimate mother of all the princes and princesses, and Concubine Chun is the biological mother of the Second Prince. Someone loves the Second Prince very much."

Jin Yuyan had seen too many plots of Ruyi and the emperor's mindless love, so she was very displeased to see her cold and arrogant appearance.

She clearly wants everything, but she insists on having others bring it to her. In her opinion, others actively pursuing what they want is utilitarian and shameless.

What kind of truth is this?

"The two princes are close friends and simply want to spend time together in the upper study. The Emperor and the Empress have both agreed. Why should you worry about it?"

"Lady Jia, you don't understand. Lady Xian has never given birth, so naturally she doesn't understand what it's like to truly consider a child."

Gao Xiyue's words pierced Ruyi's heart, making her so angry that her face turned pale and she couldn't speak for a long time.

Langya also stopped the conversation at the right time. "The Emperor and I are very happy to see that the princes and princesses are getting along well. There is more than one teacher in the Upper Study. They will naturally teach the two princes with all their heart."

"The companionship of a tutor and a brother is different after all."

"No need to worry, Noble Lady Xian. All the sisters should take good care of their bodies and give birth to children for the Emperor as soon as possible."

"Thank you for your guidance, Queen. I am sorry for being rude. I just spoke too quickly and didn't mean anything else."

Under the gaze of everyone, Ruyi had no choice but to stand up and apologize.

Jin Yuyan was in a daze after hearing this. Isn't being outspoken her character?

Why does Ruyi use it just because she says so?

"Lady Xian, please remember that it is my duty as the Queen to care for the concubines and teach the princes and princesses."

When Ruyi heard this, her heart ached and she could only bow her head to express her gratitude.

After paying respects, looking at Gao Xiyue and others gathered in groups of three or four, Ruyi suddenly missed Hai Lan who was always by her side.

Only then did she remember that she hadn't seen the other person for a long time, and she didn't know how she was doing living with Concubine Jia in this cold winter.

"After Ruoxin goes back, send some more charcoal quilts to Haichang to see if she is doing well."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Suo Xin's face, and she whispered, "Master, Hai Changzai is still under house arrest. If we rashly send something in like this, will it anger the Queen?"

"Well, you are right. We still have to ask the emperor for a favor."

Gao Xiyue and the others moved slowly, and before they knew it, Ruyi had caught up with them.

"This person needs to recognize his own status. He should worry about his position and think he is some big shot."

Jin Yuyan spared no effort in criticizing Ruyi.

When she first entered the palace and was canonized, she could only be a noble lady because of Ruyi. Jin Yuyan has always remembered this incident clearly.

She hated Ruyi's hypocrisy and the emperor's favoritism, and fairly blamed these two eccentric husbands and wives.

But the emperor was her breadwinner, so she could only hide her dissatisfaction.

"Who says it's not? I'm annoyed by the way she looks when she pays respects. What's she doing with those claws scratching her head?"

"It's just a glass hairpin, yet she cherishes it so much."

Ruyi didn't want to cause any more trouble, but when she heard Gao Xiyue belittle the emperor's feelings, she was unhappy.

"Your Highness, please be careful with your words. This is a gift from the Emperor, and it is not inappropriate for me to value it."

Gao Xiyue snorted coldly. Using rewards to pressure others, all the concubines in the palace have received some rewards from the emperor.

"Really? If I'm not mistaken, this headgear for Concubine Jia was also recently awarded by the Emperor."

Seeing Gao Xiyue mention herself, Jin Yuyan hurried forward to agree.

"Your Highness, you have a good eye. The jade on it is precious. I begged for it for a long time."

Only then did Ruyi turn her attention to Jin Yuyan. The jade on her headpiece was crystal clear and indeed not an ordinary piece.

But she was still very content in her heart.

The emperor would remember his own preferences and give him gifts on his own initiative, but although Jin Yuyan's things were good, they were obtained by her request.

There is a world of difference between the two.

Ruyi fiddled with the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and said calmly, "The Emperor has his own ideas about what he wants to reward. I only know that this friendship should be valued."

She believed that she had a unique position in the emperor's heart and did not take Jin Yuyan's provocation seriously.

But Gao Xiyue obviously did not intend to let her feel comfortable, and began to count one by one the things that the emperor had rewarded to the concubines in each palace.

"The Emperor has always been considerate of all the sisters. Not to mention me, he recently gave Wang Jinsheng's Huangshan picture and poem ink to Concubine Wan. Concubine Chun also received the new tribute of tea from Jiangnan, and Yi Changzai was given the best fabrics..."

"The sisters naturally remember the emperor's kindness, but no one is as brazen as you, fiddling with it in front of everyone while paying respects."

Every time Gao Xiyue spoke, Ruyi's expression became uglier.

Jin Yuyan looked at the calm and confident Concubine Hui in shock, as if she was meeting Gao Xiyue for the first time.

In her heart, Gao Xiyue has always been a simple and straightforward person, and she can only feel helpless and furious when faced with Ruyi's overt and covert provocations.

Never before had the needles pierced Ruyi's heart so precisely as they did at this moment.

It seems that this palace can really make people grow quickly.

However, Jin Yuyan was overthinking this. It was not the palace that trained Gao Xiyue, but after being exposed to the screen for this period of time, she had a deeper understanding of Ruyi.

In this case, of course you know where the knife will hurt the most.

"It's easy to find a pretext to accuse someone of something. Since Your Majesty has determined that I'm showing off, I don't know what to say."

Thinking about what happened during the last visit, Ruyi's anger dissipated a little.

She didn't want to conflict with the people in the harem anymore, so she simply took a step back.

But deep down she firmly believed that these mundane things were nothing, and only sincerity was the most valuable thing. Her green plum was more thoughtful than anything else she received.

Gao Xiyue sneered, stopped when passing by Ruyi, and said something in a low voice.

"Lady Xian, you may not know this, but this glass hairpin of yours was presented to you by the Empress from her manor."

The sound was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for people around to hear clearly.

Jin Yuyan couldn't help but almost laughed out loud, and covered her mouth with a handkerchief in time.

This sentence is really...

She was afraid that if she laughed, Concubine Xian would go crazy on the spot.

After Gao Xiyue finished speaking, she didn't even look at Ruyi's face and left with everyone.

Bai Ruiji saw all of this and was filled with fear.

Fortunately, she only agreed to something insignificant. Judging from the imperial concubine's expression today, she didn't seem to care about what happened before.

If she lost the emperor's favor, these high-ranking concubines could easily deal with her.

"Master, Master, please don't listen to the Imperial Concubine's nonsense. The Emperor is thinking of you."

"I've given you so many wonderful things these days, and I've remembered your preferences for each one so clearly. It's obvious I've put so much thought into it."

A Ruo glared at Gao Xiyue's departing back with hatred, turned around and saw her master's cheeks twitching with anger, so she hurried forward to comfort her.

惢心 also joined in to persuade, what would happen if the master got hurt because of anger.

"Yes, my Lord, the most precious thing in life is knowing each other's hearts. The Emperor has carefully remembered your preferences."

It was rare that Ruyi was not convinced by their few words. Gao Xiyue's words hurt her heart so much that it could not be repaired by their few words.

The group came with high morale and left in disgrace.

The emperor was feeling sorry for Ruyi, and when he learned about this, he hurried to the Yanx Palace with gifts.

He never thought that there was anything wrong with his previous behavior. They were all his concubines, so there was no need to be stingy with such things.

Now the Imperial Concubine and Ruyi have been arguing again and again, but every time the Imperial Concubine's words seem to be nothing wrong.

The emperor had no reason to vent his anger, so he had to be extra nice to Ruyi.

A play called "Qiangtou Ma" is being performed on the stage of Shufangzhai.

In front of the stage, Hongli and Ruyi were sitting together sweetly watching the play, accompanied by royal relatives, princes and nobles behind them.

Everyone had a fake smile on their face, and they really couldn't bear to look at the two people in front of them who were an eyesore.

As the emperor, it's okay for him to accompany his favorite concubine to watch this kind of love drama, and it's okay for him to let them accompany him.

But it would be a bit too much to show off in front of them.

There are people keeping me company behind the stands, and there are people watching outside the screen.

Gao Xiyue and others were almost laughing to death.

[Did you see that? The old man's face was twitching, his eyes were almost rolling up to the sky, and he had to drink tea to cover it up, haha!]

The positions of each minister were thoughtfully displayed on the screen.

[Officials from the Ministry of Revenue, the Emperor is testing their patience. This is a truly cruel move. Is the Emperor planning to piss these old men off to death so he can replace them with his own people? This move is truly ruthless.]

Prince Lu is the one who suffers the most. He just finished his brother's funeral, and now he has to watch his nephew and concubines being affectionate. It seems that Prince Lu is also in charge of the Ministry of Rites now?

[Yes, the Ministry of Rites is under the jurisdiction of Prince Lu, and this person is also a relative. I don't know what he feels now that he sees this scene.]

Jin Yuyan dismissed everyone and asked Li Xin to prepare some refreshments.

There are still a lot of hazelnuts that the Queen Mother gave as a reward last time, and they are very suitable for killing time now.

She kept some of them on purpose, as they would usually be made into snacks.

After all, no queen watches drama every day.

The struggles in the former dynasty and the harem were so fierce that any food could become a tool in the struggle, but no one was in such a good mood as them.

"Xingxuan, go and warm up a pot of fruit wine so I can warm myself up."

Gao Xiyue also changed to the most comfortable position and nestled in the warm room.

Langya received sufficient compensation from the bureau, and the anger she felt at being exploited disappeared.

Now these two are rare point contributors. They can earn points just by taking a vacation without any effort. It would be great if they could do this kind of work in the future.

The most devastated ones are the ladies. Look at the second row. Their handkerchiefs are nearly torn to shreds. Their mouths are twitching as they try to maintain a smile. I feel so sorry for them.

【ah……】

They gathered together, and Ruyi even made some cakes to feed the emperor. Oh my god, there are people behind him. This is Shufangzhai, not Ruyi's bedroom.

[Your focus is really strange. Didn't you see that the old official behind you is about to faint? He's about to pass out.]

[This looks like someone has been bewitched.]

No matter what people looked at them, the two people who were immersed in the atmosphere of love did not feel anything wrong.
