TV Series: When the Villain Chooses to Stand by

"Mother? I understand. I will study hard."

"Jingyu is so good, come and watch your mother draw, okay? Didn't you say last time that you wanted a new skirt? Let's discuss the pattern together."

Chen Wanyin looked at her daughter's sensible appearance and hugged her in her arms, not wanting her to see her worried look.

Before I had children, I always wanted to have my own offspring, but when she finally came, I had endless worries.

The princess will inevitably marry to Mongolia in the future. She can't give her daughter much help, she can only hope that she can learn more and be more sensible.

Only then will you be able to protect yourself.

Because she wanted to save more dowry for her daughter, the Queen Mother said she wanted to cooperate with her to sell storybooks and picture albums, and Chen Wanyin agreed without hesitation.

She just needs to focus on painting, and someone else will take care of the rest.

Since entering the palace, Chen Wanyin has been immersed in poetry, calligraphy and painting, and has made some achievements over the years.

Langya had a bookstore set up and sold all the paintings.

An anonymous competition successfully spread the reputation of Yunjian Youke. Because of her superb painting skills and the fact that she never showed up in public easily, Chen Wanyin's paintings were sought after by many literati.

Everyone regarded this person as a wise man who was not interested in fame or fortune.

It is said that women's writings should not be shown to others easily, but Chen Wanyin will definitely not be at risk of being exposed.

What made Langya happy was that Chen Wanyin lived up to the title. Knowing that the world recognized the value of these paintings, she studied even harder.

He also often consulted the masters of Ruyi Pavilion.

The world is so unfair to women. Without gender constraints, everyone can appreciate these works fairly, but once they are labeled as women's, they will attract extremely harsh criticism.

Langya often talked with those ladies of noble birth, and she found that each of these women was capable of standing on their own.

They can manage the entire backyard and property in an orderly manner, and can handle complex interpersonal communications without any problem.

Compared with the successful women Langya had seen in her small world, they were even more resilient.

Chen Wanyin also knew the importance of the matter. She never showed off in front of Hongli, who only thought her painting was passable.

Our understanding of her still remains in those children's picture books.

After the New Year, Ruyi received a new prescription. Her obsession with having an offspring has become almost crazy.

The cute little creatures in the imperial garden made her particularly worried. Every time she passed by, she could imagine the scene of the princes and princesses playing there.

After so many times, Ruyi no longer had the heart to appreciate her favorite plum blossoms, and only wanted to smash all those crooked ducks.

"The manners that the princes and princesses have been taught by their mothers are truly... unbecoming."

Ruyi shook her raised fingers back and forth, looking at the plum trees around her and shaking her head in pain, as if these were something disgusting to the eyes.

"These beautiful plum blossoms, originally pure and noble, are now disturbed by these colorful snowballs, and their artistic conception is completely destroyed."

After she finished speaking, there was silence all around.

If it were usual, A Ruo would definitely flatter her, but after what happened last time, for some reason, she suddenly didn't want to agree with Ruyi anymore.

Maybe he didn't want to be punished again, or maybe he knew that what Ruyi said was problematic in itself.

In short, without her as the supporting actor, Ruyi's solo performance seemed very awkward.

"Woooo..."

Before Ruyi could say anything else, the sound of a child crying suddenly came from behind the plum tree next to her.

Ruyi's heart tightened, and after taking a few steps, she saw the three princesses running out hand in hand.

"Aruo, hurry up, don't let the princess fall."

Ruyi also knew that what she had just said was inappropriate, and wanted A Ruo to stop them. They were just a few little girls, and they could be fooled by just coaxing them.

I don’t know if they ran too fast or A Ruo was too slow.

In a moment, the princesses went out and disappeared.

Ah Ruo knelt on the ground and pleaded in a sorrowful voice, "This servant is incompetent. It's all because of these useless legs. Master, please punish me."

Ruyi wanted to say something but was choked back. She smiled stiffly and helped Arruo up.

"Get up, it's nothing. As long as the princesses are alright, that's all that matters."

"Let's pick some plum blossoms and go see the emperor."

Jingxi and others cried loudly all the way, and the palace servants along the way were all frightened. Some of them were smart enough to run and inform the emperor, empress and the masters of each palace.

Jingluo didn't understand what was going on, nor did she know why her sisters were crying so suddenly.

But my sister said to let her be sad a little, so I did it.

When Hongli received the news, he quickly asked Wang Qin to pick them up. The person who came reported that several princesses were coming this way.

Jingxi didn't even bow when she entered the room. She rushed straight into Hongli's arms with her sister.

There was also some selfish motive in it, so let it get hurt.

Why does the Emperor favor Concubine Xian? She is so annoying. The other concubines are no worse than the other in terms of appearance or talent.

Why are my father's preferences so special?

When Hongli saw his precious daughters crying like this, he hurriedly wiped their tears one by one.

"What's going on? Who is so bold as to tell the Emperor about the grievances he suffered?"

Jingxi cried breathlessly, speaking incoherently, "Father Emperor, we...we are not uneducated children, right? The Empress Dowager said we are the best."

Jingluo tried hard for a long time but only managed to squeeze out a few tears, which were wiped away by Hongli.

There was not much sadness on her face, but rather anger. She already knew that Concubine Xian had just said that they were uncultured.

Jingyu even cried silently. Her big watery eyes were filled with tears as she looked straight at Hongli, hoping to get a positive answer from the emperor.

This is the most heartbreaking thing. Hongli has no feelings for Chen Wanyin, but he loves his daughter very much.

He touched his little daughter's head and shook it gently, then patted her face one by one with his right hand.

Trying hard to suppress her anger, she said as gently as possible, "You are the most obedient and my most outstanding princesses. Tell the Emperor what happened. Who said you are uneducated?"

"Father, it's Concubine Xian. My sisters and I sneaked out today to collect some plum blossom water. Mother said that only that kind of water can make tea more flavorful..."

When Hongli heard that it was Concubine Xian, he froze at first, and a feeling of irritation rose in his heart, but quickly disappeared.

After hearing the second half of Jingluo's words, she smiled helplessly again. The second daughter was the most innocent since she was a child. She couldn't hide anything on her mind and dared to speak directly even if she sneaked out.

Where he couldn't see, Jingxi and Jingyu looked at each other and sighed silently.

Second sister, you're off topic, I'm complaining!

How can you expose yourself?

But they both cried so hard that they had to slow down.

Hongli gave Wang Qin a look, indicating that he should go and find out what had happened.

He lowered his head and listened to his daughter patiently.
