TV Series: When the Villain Chooses to Stand by

Ruyi was only punished but not deprived of her title and status. In name, she was still Concubine Xian.

Jinbao didn't dare to let the guards arrest the man at will. At this time, Yu Hu and several maids stepped forward in time to control the man.

A strip of cloth pulled out from somewhere blocked Ruyi's screams, and her ten fingers were forced apart. The burnt blue flowers and rice beads on the armor disappeared into the fluff of the carpet.

Just like the dignity and pride that Ruyi has always maintained.

Her beloved young man tore off this layer of dignity with his own hands, leaving her to scream like a mad woman in front of everyone.

Couldn't Hongli have guessed such a scene?

How is that possible? He knows Ruyi best, how could he not understand how devastating such punishment would be to Ruyi.

Seeing that they had no intention of taking Ruyi away, Langya stopped the maids' actions in a cold voice.

"Wait, the emperor is still recovering and it's not good for him to see blood. Jinbao, take the person out."

Jinbao looked at Langya in embarrassment, "Well, Empress, the Emperor wants all the masters to watch the execution here."

"Oh!"

Langya slapped the table and stood up. She looked at Jinbao sternly and said word by word, "I am worried that the princes and princesses will cry. The concubine and others should return to the palace first."

"I will naturally explain to the Emperor."

Jinbao glanced around quietly and found that except for him and Jinzhong, everyone else kept their heads down and pretended not to hear anything.

Even Aunt Yuhu did not refute.

This surprised Jinbao. He never knew that the queen had such a say in the palace.

Jinzhong's eyes flashed, and he stepped forward, pulled Jinbao, bent down, and took a few steps back.

"Your servant will obey the Queen's order."

Gao Xiyue's pale face finally showed some warmth, and she subconsciously leaned closer to Langya.

As for the concubines present, they hated Ruyi, but there was no deep blood feud between the two sides.

Every time Ruyi was punished, it was her own fault, so they naturally wouldn't interfere.

But watching the execution...

This is also a punishment for them, a group of girls who have never experienced cruel games. Even someone as kind-hearted as Jin Yuyan cannot accept it.

For the first time, there was a long silence on the screen.

"Everyone, go back and take good care of the children. Your Majesty, I am here with you."

Langya pulled Gao Xiyue out from behind her and signaled her to take everyone away.

They didn't dare to delay and hurried out after paying their respects.

Only Yihuan stayed until the end.

"Empress, I am concerned about the safety of the Emperor. Could you please stay in the Yangxin Palace and serve him?"

Langya looked at her with complicated eyes, thinking that this was true love.

"You can stay if you want."

Outside the hall, Bai Ruiji and others paused, then quickened their pace to leave. They did not have the courage to do so.

After everyone left, Ruyi's nightmare had just begun and her mind was completely confused.

His pupils suddenly dilated, piercing pain spread from his fingertips to his entire body, and cold sweat broke out in an instant.

The uncontrollable screams were blocked, and only a few whimpers came out from the gaps.

Ruyi collapsed powerlessly on the ground and tried to curl up to protect herself, but was forcibly pried apart.

This is what it feels like to have your nails pulled out.

Such a strange thought arose in her mind. Her consciousness was already blurred, and basins of freezing ice water forced her to stay awake.

Ruyi felt very warm, as if she was sitting in the Yanx Palace wearing a warm cloak, with A Ruo being punished in front of her.

Sanbao pulled out her nails one by one.

The whimpering sound echoing in my ears was A Ruo's struggle before death, and the next second I was pulled back to reality.

The person being punished becomes himself.

Yihuan covered her chest and turned her head away, not daring to look again. She now regretted very much why she stayed.

For the first time, her deep feelings for Hongli began to waver.

The person she likes is not only an ordinary man with great talent and power, but also an emperor who is decisive and ruthless.

He never hesitated to be cruel even to the woman who loved him deeply.

When Hongli regained consciousness, he was easily fooled by Langya, who told him to let the matter go with the words "for the sake of his reputation".

The most important thing is that after falling into a coma, Ruyi was diagnosed to be more than a month pregnant.

I had been looking forward to it all day, and this child happened to come at this time.

He hadn't figured out how to face Ruyi yet, so he simply left the matter to Langya.

This incident was like a dark cloud that enveloped the entire palace, and the damp and cold air made it difficult for everyone to breathe.

When I saw Ruyi again a few days later, she had returned to her former self, with no trace of the madness she had that day in the Yangxin Palace.

His ten fingers were swollen and bloody and couldn't be closed.

After she became pregnant, for the sake of the heir, the imperial physician did not dare to use many medicines and could only let her recover slowly.

Perhaps because of her different mood, Ruyi's eyebrows were drawn more pointed, and the high brow peaks seemed to break through the confinement of the Forbidden City.

This seemed to have become Ruyi's new dignity.

It made her look more sarcastic and mean.

Lianxin came out to convey Langya's oral instructions, and happened to meet the imperial concubine and others who came to pay their respects.

"Empress Xian, the Empress has asked you to return to the palace to recuperate properly. Putting aside the matter of the kneeling punishment, you must take care of the safety of the Dragon Heir."

Ruyi remained unmoved after hearing Lianxin's words. She stared straight ahead with a resolute expression, "Since this is a punishment, I will definitely complete it well."

Meeting Jin Yuyan's slightly puzzled gaze, she spoke in a higher tone.

"I am the head queen of Yanxi Palace and do not need anyone's pity, especially those with evil intentions."

Her cold gaze swept over every concubine who came to pay her respects.

He committed their expressions to memory, hoping to detect a hint of guilt and panic in their eyes.

To Ruyi's disappointment, there was no one there.

Only Yihuan and Hailan's heartache gave her some comfort.

"Sister, the Queen has issued an order. You should go back now. You must take good care of yourself."

Hai Lan didn't dare to touch Ruyi's hand, so she could only gently touch her shoulder and plead with tears in her eyes.

Yihuan also followed suit and offered a few words of advice.

Gao Xiyue and the others, who usually loved to make fun of Ruyi, said nothing. They didn't dare to look at the unrecognizable hands and hurriedly walked past Ruyi and went in.

Lianxin had no intention of persuading her anymore. Although Concubine Xian was pitiful, it was all her own fault that she was in such a state.

If I don't seize the only opportunity now, who will I be showing off to by being stubborn here?

Su Lujun was also whispering to Chen Wanyin about what had just happened.

"Why does Concubine Xian look like she's not reflecting on herself, but rather holding a grudge against us?"

"Yeah, even the villain with bad intentions said it out loud, as if she was framed."

Jin Yuyan was the most indignant because Ruyi was the first one to look at.

You can’t think that she will harm others just because she is the most favored and likes to wander around!

"Shouldn't she hate the person who punished her the most?"

Chen Wanyin's light words made the air stagnant for a second, and Su Lujun immediately covered her throat and coughed a few times.

"Ahem, this weather is so hot and stuffy that my throat is uncomfortable."

Jin Yuyan looked at the furry heater in her hand and responded with a stiff smile, "Yes, yes, let's go in quickly."
