TV Series: When the Villain Chooses to Stand by

Langya sat upright on the high platform, playing with the beads in her hand, and leisurely looked at the people below with different expressions.

After she and the system reminisced about the past last night, she didn't pay attention to their situation. Only this morning did she find out that the video had been playing all night.

I thought Jin Yuyan would be happier, but who knew she was still so angry today and could still be so rational under the temptation of so many handsome men.

Gao Xiyue was different, she was immediately addicted to it.

That black spot, Xing Xuan must have wasted a lot of fans this morning.

Langya felt that she had really underestimated these people in the past.

"Why should I mind? Who doesn't have an ignorant maid around? I will definitely visit the Yanxi Palace more often. I think my sister will welcome me."

Ruyi's smile froze on her face. If she dared to nod, according to Jin Yuyan's temper, she would definitely have people guarding outside the Yanx Palace every day.

This person has no idea what courtesy is.

"Her Majesty Xian has always been kind and benevolent, how could she not welcome you? Her Majesty Jia is really overthinking it."

Yi Changzai pretended not to understand the deeper meaning of Jiapin's words and praised Ruyi highly with just one sentence.

Although she lived in the Yanx Palace, she was not valued. When Ruyi offended someone, she was also neglected in the Yanx Palace. When Ruyi was in favor, the emperor even forgot about her.

Every night these days, she could hear the hustle and bustle in the main hall.

But that damn girl A Ruo watched him very closely and would not let him get close to the main hall whenever the emperor arrived at the Yanx Palace.

If a concubine can't even see the emperor, what hope is there for her?

Today she deliberately helped Jiapin to set Ruyi up. As long as her master gave the order, Aruo would never be able to stop her again.

Ruyi was still thinking about how to respond to this, but Yi Changzai's words made her even more embarrassed.

"It's my fault, it's my fault. Concubine Xian is kind-hearted and gets along well with her sisters. I was mistaken."

"I will definitely come to visit you more often in the future. I hope Yichangzai can come and keep me company when the time comes, so that we sisters can get together. We really haven't grown apart in the past."

Jin Yuyan flicked her handkerchief and climbed up while taking advantage of Yi Changzai's words.

"Then sister, don't forget me."

"Don't worry."

Ruyi watched them talking and laughing with a sad heart. One was a concubine in her own palace, and the other was Jiapin, who had always been at odds with her.

As the head queen of the Yanx Palace, Ruyi felt that she had never treated Concubine Yi badly, nor had she ever made things difficult for her.

Why are you so aggressive today?

Bai Ruiji didn't dare to offend anyone at this time, so she could only sit quietly at the end and carefully ponder the thoughts of these high-ranking ladies.

"Sister Xianpin, why don't you say anything? Are you unwilling?"

Jin Yuyan seemed to be unable to see the embarrassment on Ruyi's face and continued to speak to her enthusiastically.

At this time, the atmosphere in the hall had gradually become stagnant. Wanpin looked up at the Queen. As long as Langya gave her a look, she would immediately change the subject and end this farce.

Langya didn't respond at all. She picked up the teacup and drank it slowly, her rejection obvious in her words.

"Jiapin is joking..."

Before Ruyi could finish her words, her conversation was interrupted again.

"I'm kidding. It's a bitterly cold winter, and Concubine Xian just asked the Emperor to lift Concubine Hai's house arrest a few days ago. I heard she even asked for a lot of rewards on her behalf. She's so thoughtful, how could she not welcome the sisters?"

Concubine Chun endured for a long time before finally speaking. A few days ago, Ruyi sent people to deliver things to Yongzhang every few days.

It is said that it is for the second prince to go to school.

There are pen covers, ink, paper and inkstone. Although Chunpin's family background is not outstanding in the harem, it depends on who you compare her with.

Although not as prosperous as those big Manchu families, the family's power and wealth should not be underestimated.

Jiangnan had sent countless of these things, and she had prepared them long ago. Why would she need Concubine Xian, with whom she had not been in contact for a long time, to prepare them?

What made Chunpin even more unacceptable was that惢心 sent over a plate of fish paste and flower cake, and Yongzhang happened to be playing outside.

He had a liking for this palace maid who smiled all day long, and he ate her without any precautions.

The servants following behind were terrified when they found out.

Concubine Chun was both anxious and angry. She believed that Concubine Xian would not be so stupid as to drug Yong Zhang directly, but what if?

Yongzhang is her only child, who knows what the other party will do to her.

She thought about going directly to Concubine Xian to explain things clearly, but in the end, due to her great favor, she gritted her teeth and accepted the plate of pastries.

He only gave Yong Zhang a good lesson afterwards.

Now seeing Concubine Xian’s aggrieved look, Concubine Chun felt as disgusted as if she had eaten a fly.

She deserves to be targeted by everyone today. It's her fault for always claiming that she is beautiful and kind.

Hailan clenched her palms tightly. Her sister was isolated and helpless in such a situation, but she didn't dare to say a word.

Once you open your mouth, you never know which of your words will become the target of others' attacks.

She could only watch and could do nothing.

"Why are you looking at me like that, Concubine Xian? Do you think what I said is wrong? Isn't that what everyone says outside? Or are you just talking about it, simply wanting to gain a good reputation but not actually willing to do anything?"

Concubine Xian unconsciously folded her hands together and felt cold all over. The people in front of her were all demons.

Hidden beneath their gorgeous clothes is an ugly and dirty heart.

Just because she was favored by the emperor, they changed their kind faces and targeted her for this little favor.

In this room full of women, apart from Hai Lan, no one was willing to say a word for her.

Fortunately, she had treated him sincerely and never forgot to send any good things to the Second Prince.

What we got in return was the scene like today.

"Princess Chun, I don't know what I have done to cause such groundless speculation from you. A woman's reputation is so important. I hope you will be careful with your words."

After a brief period of frustration, Ruyi quickly regained her confidence.

Everything they do is out of jealousy. You just need to keep your heart true and not get involved with them.

"Princess Chun, the sisters were just gossiping, why are you saying this?"

Langya saw that Chunpin's eyes were red, and although her words were a little unkind, her tone was trembling slightly.

Perhaps something had happened that he didn't know about, so he asked.

Hearing the queen's gentle and powerful voice, Chunpin's emotions, which had been suppressed for a long time, suddenly burst out.

He fell to his knees with a thud and told him everything that had happened before.

"Your Majesty, I am not being overly suspicious. This is simply a strange matter."

"I have had no personal relationship with Concubine Xian over the years. She suddenly sent these things to me out of nowhere. I am really scared!"

As Concubine Chun spoke, she began to cry. She just wanted to watch Yongzhang grow up and didn't want to get involved in Concubine Xian's affairs.

Why is it so difficult?

After hearing this, Langya's mouth twitched a few times. This was not how the matter was supposed to be calculated.

She could understand Concubine Chun's feelings, but she could not use such a reason to reprimand Ruyi.

"I only meant well. How can Concubine Chun be so disrespectful of others' kindness?"

"enough!"

Langya slapped the armrest, and what Ruyi was about to say was blocked by this.

She felt extremely aggrieved when things developed to this point. Although she disdained to argue with these people about right and wrong, it did not mean that she liked having her every word blocked in her throat.

There wasn't even a chance to argue.

"Princess Xian, the small kitchen in your palace was specially approved by the Emperor because he said the Yanxi Palace was too simple. Otherwise, you know how strict the control of open flames in the palace is."

"Since I gave it to you, it's for your own convenience. I'm not asking you to send some food to this palace and some soup to that palace. The door to the imperial kitchen is still open."

After Langya finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at Concubine Chun, who was still crying on the ground. "Second Prince needs to be careful about what he eats, but there's no need to be so paranoid. We are all sisters in the harem who serve the emperor."

"Don't say such things again in the future. Considering your motherly love, I'll let it go this time. Get up first."

"It's the same for all the princes and princesses. Children are weak, so we must be careful with what they eat. Everything should be done with their health in mind."

"I respectfully follow the Queen's teachings."

Concubine Chun also knew that she had to stop while she was ahead. The Queen's attitude was already biased. If this got to the Emperor's ears, she might be punished.

……

Ruyi knew that the Queen disliked her, but she didn't expect that she would scold her for such an outrageous reason.

Is she so afraid of establishing close relationships with the sisters in the palace?

"This concubine also has good intentions, but the little maid beside me is ignorant. I hope Sister Chunpin will forgive me. I will definitely teach her well when I get back."

Jin Yuyan was enjoying the show, but when she heard Concubine Xian putting the blame on the palace maid again, she felt a chill in her heart.

"Another ignorant palace maid. It seems the servants around Concubine Xian are not very good at serving her. Should we take this opportunity to select a new batch?"

"Be careful not to make a mistake one day and have no one to stand up for you."

When Jin Yuyan said this, the other concubines covered their lips and laughed.

Jiapin was very direct in her words, and she almost mentioned Xianpin by name for using a palace maid to take the blame.

Ruyi was forced into a corner and had to stand up and apologize to the Queen.

"These things are due to my failure to discipline my children properly. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

"Hmm? Punishment?"

"Since Concubine Xian admits that she failed to discipline her children properly, then I'll fine her six months' salary. As for A Ruo, I'll make her kneel in front of Qixiang Palace and recite the palace rules aloud. What do you think, Concubine Jia?"

Ruyi bit her lip reluctantly. Wasn't this a slap in her face?

But it was a fact that A Ruo rashly broke into Qixiang Palace late at night and shouted loudly outside, disturbing the emperor's rest, and she had no way to refute it.

I don't even know how to start asking for mercy.

Jin Yuyan knew that the Queen wanted to hand Arruo over to her for punishment, so she knelt down to express her gratitude.

"Your Majesty is kind and compassionate. I will follow your instructions and send someone to carefully monitor A Ruo and let her reflect on her mistakes."

"Well, Suo Xin didn't break any palace rules, so she won't be punished. If Concubine Xian feels that she's ignorant, she can have someone teach her privately."

"There's no need to report this to me."

Concubine Xian was defeated miserably in this confrontation and lost all her face and dignity.

Jin Yuyan and others were very satisfied with the result.

After paying her respects, Langya entered the inner room and saw Gao Xiyue sleeping soundly on the couch.

"Why don't you let the concubine go to the bed to rest? It's so uncomfortable to lie on this couch. Go get a charcoal basin."

Lian Xin quickly led Lang Ya over and helped her sit aside. "Master, this servant said that the Imperial Concubine didn't want to sleep here, saying it was against the rules."

Langya nodded and lowered her voice to order, "Tell the kitchen to prepare some refreshing food and bring some fresh mangoes."

"Master, would you eat ice cream in this cold winter..."

Lianxin was a little hesitant. It was snowing outside. As soon as she heard Langya wanted mangoes, she knew what she was going to do.

Since the master gave birth to two little masters, her food preferences have changed a lot.

My favorite thing recently is to cut the tribute fruit into pieces, add cheese and honey to it, and it tastes sweet and refreshing.

But the weather is too cold.

"It's okay, go get ready."

Lianxin had no choice but to go down.

While they were talking, Gao Xiyue woke up in a daze.

Even when she woke up, she was too lazy to move. She just tilted her head and looked at Langya, watching her writing and drawing on a book.

His entire face was buried in soft and warm fur, making him look like a delicate and beautiful little rabbit.

The sound of Gao Xiyue pulling the quilt still reminded Langya.

She didn't stop working, looked up once, then lowered her head to continue struggling with the account book in her hand.

"Awake? What did you do last night to make you so sleepy?"

When Gao Xiyue just woke up, she spoke with a nasal tone and humming, which made Langya feel that the person lying there was her daughter.

"Last night... hehe..."

Gao Xiyue's face turned red as if she had thought of something interesting.

She half sat up and looked at Langya, sharing everything she had seen last night with both regret and excitement.

"Sister, you don't know, that guy is so handsome. He looks like the immortal described in the storybooks. He can not only fly but also dance with a sword under the moon."

Gao Xiyue woke up at this time and felt that her behavior last night seemed a bit rude, and immediately became nervous.

"Yes, immortal, sister, do you think he is the master behind this thing?"

"Is my behavior considered blasphemous?"

"No, I have to go burn some incense quickly. What happened last night was really an accident. I wasn't very clear-headed at that time."

The more Gao Xiyue thought about it, the more frightened she became. She lifted the blanket from her body and was about to get up and go to the Buddhist temple to confess her sins.

Langya was so amused by her cowardly look that she grabbed her arm and held her down firmly.

I was so engrossed in watching it yesterday, it seemed like I must have stayed up all night, but now I realize something is wrong.

"Why are you panicking? Sit down first!"

"I think I can see the things you mentioned before."

Ok?

Gao Xiyue didn't react at first, but then immediately understood what Langya meant.

He was no longer in a hurry to confess his crime. He just grabbed Langya's hand and screamed excitedly.

"Ah! When did this happen, sister? Then we can chat secretly across the two palaces in the future."

"But how can we tell which words are spoken by my sister? Should we set a code for ourselves? What special symbols should we add?"

“Image or text?”

Langya did not interrupt Gao Xiyue's endless chatter about her future plans, but listened quietly to her ideas for the future.
