TV Series: When the Villain Chooses to Stand by

The two of them still gathered together sweetly to watch the play, looking at each other affectionately from time to time, and discussing the love concepts of the protagonists of the play.

Seeing that Ruyi's mood finally improved, Hongli was also happy.

"Ruyi, I was inconsiderate before. At that time, I just thought that the green plum blossom was the best match for you, and I didn't think too much about it. I will definitely not do that again in the future."

Ruyi glanced at him coquettishly, pouting and saying, "Is this how petty I am in Your Majesty's eyes?"

"I just feel a little embarrassed because this is the Empress's intention. It is my good fortune that the Emperor always thinks of me. How could I be angry about this?"

After saying this, Ruyi pinched another piece of white jade frost square cake and put it to Hongli's mouth, and ate the remaining half herself.

The awkwardness of the recent period was cleared up in just a few words.

Today, with the witness of many important ministers, the emperor has given her enough face by getting along with her like this.

When she thought of the envious looks of those ladies, Ruyi raised her chin a little higher.

Hongli looked at her arrogant look, smiled and patted her palm, and the two of them continued to watch the show in a sweet way.

"Son, pay attention to the status of those ministers and their wives and see how they react to this matter."

As soon as the matter was over, Langya started to use the system to work.

It is very clear from the video just now that when the opera just started, the "jury" behind him were all normal, with resistance written all over their faces.

Many old ministers wanted to kill themselves, muttering "it's immoral" and "rituals and music are in chaos".

As the play unfolded, their expressions gradually became numb, as if they could not see what was happening before them.

When the opera ended, everyone's expressions were even filled with relief and envy, as if the good relationship between the emperor and his concubines was a very important matter.

No one remembers how angry they were when they learned that they had to accompany the concubine to watch a play, and how ashamed they felt in the middle.

All these emotions that were unfavorable to the male and female protagonists disappeared.

"Boss, these people's behavior has no consequences. It's just that there seems to be something wrong with their thinking. As long as the target is the male and female protagonists, they think any outrageous thing is normal."

Langya nodded thoughtfully, it was pretty much what she had imagined.

This world consciousness is so fierce that it can suppress an emperor like this.

They had always had a good relationship when they were in the palace, and all of Hongli's reactions were normal at that time.

His preference for Ruyi was also kept within a certain range, making him behave like a qualified royal heir.

"Is their relationship like that of a tree and a dodder?"

"Before Hongli grew up, their relationship barely formed a certain balance. After he ascended the throne, he could provide Ruyi with more pure power."

"Correspondingly, Ruyi's influence on Hongli has also become even greater, and now she can even directly influence those around her."

"Clap clap clap!"

The system applauded crazily in space, "Boss, you're awesome! Boss, you're awesome! Judging by the energy fluctuations, it's indeed true."

Langya pursed her lips awkwardly. After visiting so many small worlds, was it necessary to give this one such face?

The system is still so exaggerated and not stable at all.

The speed at which the heroine's influence is developing has exceeded Langya's expectations.

She now understands why this is an advanced copy. The heroine is like a virus.

If she continues to let it go, she will probably have no more leisurely days in the future.

Soon, Concubine Xian became Concubine Xian again.

Hongli even wanted to take advantage of the New Year to directly confer the title of Empress Xian on her, but this decision was quickly rejected in the face of Langya's disappointed eyes.

After leaving Changchun Palace, Hongli rarely regained his consciousness and felt like he was going crazy.

Out of the emperor's caution, he quickly associated this anomaly with countless conspiracies.

The number of times I go to worship incense has increased a lot.

However, due to Concubine Xian's constant favor, this clarity of mind could not last long.

Although Concubine Xian cannot be said to be the only one favored in the harem now, it is almost the same.

As Concubine Xian became favored, A Ruo also started to show off again. She spent the whole day parading around the city with a group of young palace maids, holding the emperor's rewards.

She really enjoyed the attention of the palace maids and eunuchs.

She was even more arrogant when she saw Xing Xuan and others. If Ruyi had not repeatedly reminded her not to argue with the people in Xianfu Palace, she would have wanted to go to their house and beat them up that day.

Return all the grievances you have suffered in the past.

Everyone in the Yanx Palace lived a prosperous life, but no one remembered Hai Lan who was suffering in the Qixiang Palace.

Her confinement period has not yet expired, and without the plea of ​​a high-ranking concubine, no one would remember this unfavored and childless concubine.

Jin Yuyan was thinking all day about how to win favor from Ruyi. She didn't have her own children yet, so naturally she had to put in all her effort to fight for them.

He displayed all the eighteen martial arts he had learned, with each day being different.

She actually tore a piece of meat out of Ruyi's mouth.

Hongli already had feelings for these concubines. Seeing that they were so attentive to him, he was naturally not the kind of saint who could remain calm.

Jin Yuyan was successfully promoted from Jia Guiren to Jiapin and moved into the main hall of Qixiang Palace.

Now that she has the magical screen, she is busy all day long and has no time to bother Hailan who is under house arrest.

Ye Xin blew some warm air into his palms, rubbed his cold fingers, and walked into the house.

In this cold winter, their house is as cold as an ice cellar.

The allowance she received was very perfunctory. If Hailan did not hold a proper position, the Ministry of Internal Affairs might have embezzled even the charcoal for fear of freezing people to death.

Ye Xin moved the charcoal in the basin, and a choking smoke immediately dissipated. The temperature was already very low, but she didn't dare to add new one.

"Cough cough~ cough~"

Hai Lan, who was huddled nearby copying the palace rules, couldn't help coughing. The noise caused the chilblains on her hands to crack again.

The bright red blood spread out on the paper while the owner wasn't paying attention, leaving behind little bloodstains.

"Sigh~"

When Ye Xin heard the sound, he dropped the clamp in his hand and hurried forward to check.

"Master, why is it cracked again? I finally managed to heal it. Please stop writing."

Hailan gritted her teeth and shook her head.

"No, if I can't finish it, I don't know what will happen next. They might think of some more sinister way to punish me and my sister. I can't leave such a handle and harm my sister."

As he said this, he crumpled the blood-stained paper into a ball. It was now useless.

What a pity, I would have finished copying it in just two more words.

Seeing that she was still trying to continue writing, Ye Xin held her hands covered with scars and tears immediately flowed out.

The pleasant sound of stringed instruments came from the main hall.

Thinking of the news he had received, Ye Xin was filled with sadness and knelt down in front of Hai Lan.

"Ye Xin, what are you doing? Hurry up and get up. The ground is so cold, watch out for your knees."

Faced with Hai Lan's sincere concern, Ye Xin's last psychological defense was broken.

"Master, why are you doing this? If you continue like this, you'll be dead, cough cough!"

Hailan wanted to speak but was stopped by Ye Xin.

"Master, you spoke up for Concubine Xian and that's what brought this disaster upon yourself. But Concubine Xian, ever since you confined her to your house, has only sent us these inferior charcoal fires and hasn't asked a single unnecessary question."

"惢心 also said that the charcoal fire was sent by Concubine Xian begging the emperor. Since it was begging, why did he let you suffer?"

"No, Ye Xin, my sister has her own difficulties. If it weren't for the charcoal she sent us, we would have frozen to death. She sent it because I am of low rank and cannot use the good charcoal."

Hai Lan shook her head and began to explain for Ruyi, still trying hard to pull Ye Xin up with her hands.

Hai Lan might believe these words, but Ye Xin didn't believe a single one of them.

Even though Changzai's rank was low, she was still a legitimate concubine. How could she use charcoal fire used by servants? If the emperor came one day, the thick smoke in the room would choke people out.

"Master, why don't you believe it? Concubine Xian and the Emperor have known each other since they were young. As long as she says a word, you can get out of here."

"But she didn't. She left you to fend for yourself in this cold Qixiang Palace."

"Ye Xin, don't talk nonsense. My sister took good care of me when she was in the residence. How could she ignore me? Her own situation must be not optimistic either."

"You were there that day. The Queen and the Imperial Concubine were so aggressive, and my sister could only protect herself. How could I possibly cause trouble for her?"

Hai Lan ignored her bleeding hands and earnestly told Ye Xin about Ruyi's difficulties.

Ye Xin looked at his master's serious expression, and a strong sense of powerlessness surged in his heart.

She was happy when she was first assigned to serve Hailan. She didn't have any big ambitions and just wanted to live a stable life.

Although the master he was assigned to was cowardly, he was also very kind.

She didn't realize at that time that this kindness could not survive in the harem.

I thought I could rely on Concubine Xian, who had been with my master for many years, but who knew...

It turned out to be like this today.

How can I do!

After spending all these years together, the relationship between Ye Xin and Hai Lan has become quite deep, and it is no longer just a cold relationship between master and servant.

She couldn't bear to watch Hailan suffer.

After wiping the tears from her face, Ye Xin's gaze became firm again. The water marks had already frozen her face red, and a simple movement made her face burn with pain.

"Master, a friend of mine passed on the news that Concubine Xian is now the most favored concubine in the harem. Even the Imperial Concubine has to avoid her. She is now claiming to be ill and cannot go out."

"At that time, Concubine Xian suffered some injustice, but now she has turned over a new leaf, and rewards are pouring into the Yanxi Palace."

"Master, please trust me just once. If Concubine Xian treats you the same as before, this will be a good opportunity for us to escape."

Hai Lan was shaken, and Ye Xin had been by her side for years.

Now she can bear the hardship herself, but she cannot ignore Ye Xin’s efforts.

With her tacit consent, Ye Xin found an opportunity to secretly go to the Yanxi Palace.

When Ruyi saw Ye Xin, she was stunned for a moment, and finally remembered what she had forgotten.

However, she was so surprised and enthusiastic that Ye Xin suspected for a moment that he was thinking too much.

The main lady of Qixiang Palace is Jiapin. No matter what Ruyi sends, it will not escape her eyes. Hailan will definitely come into Jiapin's sight again.

But she didn't care and still asked惢心 to prepare various things for Hai Lan.

It was delivered openly, it was just a slap in the face.

Everyone knows that Jiapin, as the mistress of Qixiang Palace, ignored the lower-ranking concubines in her palace, and the Empress and the Royal Concubine's improper management caused the confined concubines to almost freeze to death.

This time, Ruyi reacted quickly. Before Langya knew what was happening, she went straight to the Emperor, bypassing the Queen.

This was a test from her.

Ruyi had used the same trick when she was in the Qiandi Palace, and now she is just doing it again.

In fact, Hongli had no impression of Hailan anymore. He only knew that she was a young concubine who was on good terms with Ruyi.

In his memory, she always kept her head down and was timid. If it weren't for Ruyi when he first entered the palace, he would never have thought of this kind of person.

"Your Majesty, Hailan is your concubine no matter what. Even if she made a mistake, she should not be bullied by the Imperial Household Department like this."

Ruyi sat next to Hongli, leaning her head gently on his shoulder, with a shy look on her face.

However, when he opened his mouth, he expressed his views to Hongli in a righteous manner.

With the beauty in his arms, Hongli instantly forgot what he was thinking just now, and could not remember why Hailan was punished in the first place.

"New Year's Eve is coming soon, and it's really not good for something like this to happen. Wang Qin, go to Qixiang Palace and convey my oral order. There will be a palace-wide banquet on New Year's Eve, and Hai Changzai's house arrest will be lifted."

Wang Qin was no longer surprised by such things. The emperor's attitude towards the concubines in the harem was really hard to understand.

He once showed his goodwill to the current queen and imperial concubine when he was in the palace, but received no response. The same was true for this Concubine Xian.

He secretly bore a grudge in his heart, but dared not show it at all.

Each of them is a master he cannot afford to offend.

Ruyi moved her lips, wanting to say something but swallowed it back.

It's already very good that the emperor asked to release Hai Lan. I can't make things difficult for him.

"Ruyi, I know you're on good terms with Consort Hai. The Empress and the Imperial Concubine have been busy with their duties lately, so it's normal that they haven't been able to attend to some things. I'll give her a reward later. Would you mind delivering it in person?"

Hongli held Ruyi's hand with a little force, which was both a comfort and a reminder.

With the blessing of mysterious power, he is now able to rationalize all his inappropriate behaviors.

Only occasionally does his true nature reveal itself.

Deep down in his heart, he believed in the Queen and the Imperial Concubine. Even though he knew that Ruyi wanted to say that the Queen was inaction, he still chose to protect the Queen.

"Woo woo, boss, are you touched? I'm about to cry."

Lang Ya, who was collecting data, was speechless for a moment. "Shut up and watch less nonsense dramas in the future. Isn't the lively Little World enough for you?"

Despite the interference of world consciousness, Hongli still had a good impression of the queen, and this realization made Langya quite happy.

Humans are not plants or trees, so who can be heartless? Even after experiencing so many small worlds, Langya still welcomes sincere feelings.

It's just that she is very stingy and is only willing to return the same level of emotion to the other person.

If one loses the ability to perceive emotions due to too much experience, then such tasks will be torture for the host.

This is totally inconsistent with the Administration's requirements for its employees.

They all have their own destinations, and they will pause to rest, sort out their emotions and start again.
