Jinwei joins hands in rebirth: villains can also eat at the table

The two looked at each other with tears in their eyes.

Ruyi never thought that she had only asked Ling Yunche to deliver some things to Prince Yan's mansion, but she never thought that it would end up harming him like this.

"How...how could this happen..."

Ruyi murmured, her voice trembling, her lips trembling slightly, as if she wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.

Big tears fell like beads from a broken string, streaking across her pale cheeks.

After becoming a eunuch, Ling Yunche lost his beard, and the large flesh-pink scar that was revealed reminded Ruyi all the time.

She knew that everything that happened to Ling Yunche was caused by her.

She felt that she was the culprit. If it weren't for her, Ling Yunche might still be able to live a peaceful life and not suffer such torture.

"Your Majesty, there's no need to blame yourself. This is all your humble servant's fault... This is the path you chose. Your Majesty, just live a good life. They... They won't give up..."

Ling Yunche tried to comfort Ruyi and told her not to blame herself too much.

He knew that Concubine Ling would never let Yikun Palace go easily...

"It's my fault. I've dragged you down, Your Majesty. Please don't feel bad for me. If this can calm the Emperor's anger and save Your Majesty, I'm willing to do it..."

"Only in this way will the Emperor be satisfied. Your Majesty, please do not embarrass me. Just treat me as a pillar, a decoration in this palace, insignificant, and do not pay any attention to me..."

"This servant has one more wish. I hope that Your Majesty will not do anything for this servant from now on. If I implicate Your Majesty again, I will be guilty of an eternal and unforgivable sin. Please grant my wish..."

Ling Yunche said a lot, his face full of bitterness.

But Ruyi just kept crying.

Tears rolled down her face, smudged by the tears, and she felt her eyes were bloodshot.

When did the emperor become so cruel?

In order to torture her and Ling Yunche, he turned Ling Yunche into a eunuch...

After Ling Yunche left, Rong Pei came in with a worried look on her face.

At this time, Ruyi had already packed up and was just sitting there staring out the window in a daze with a disheveled look on her face.

Looking through the window, it was Ling Yunche, she was sweeping up fallen leaves with a broom.

Rong Pei sighed deeply, but had to remind Ruyi.

"Empress, the Emperor is doing this for revenge. You must be careful and don't get angry with the Emperor again. Ling Yunche is currently working in the Yikun Palace, and I'm afraid the Emperor won't let this go..."

"Now that Ling Yunche has become like this, what else is he unwilling to give up?"

Ruyi replied woodenly.

Looking at Ling Yunche's hunched figure holding a broom outside, I felt like my heart was being cut by a knife.

Rong Pei saw that Ruyi was resentful, but still had to step forward to persuade her.

"Your Majesty, Ling Yunche is right before you now. If the Emperor is dissatisfied, he will definitely come to pick a fight. For Ling Yunche's sake, if not for yourself, please don't get angry with the Emperor anymore..."

"If the Emperor is unhappy and takes his anger out on Ling Yunche, wouldn't that only harm him more?"

Rong Pei hit the nail on the head.

As someone close to Ruyi, she had been punished repeatedly by the emperor and had long understood the temperaments of the empress and the emperor.

If the Queen refuses to bow her head, the ones who will suffer in the end will be these servants.

Sanbao is still suffering in the greenhouse, and Rong Pei doesn't want to go to the Ministry of Punishment again.

She tried to persuade Ruyi no matter what, just hoping that she would think twice.

At this moment, the emperor was sitting in the Hall of Mental Cultivation. The vast palace was utterly silent. He was completely enveloped in shadow, staring blankly at a copy of "Wall Horse" on the table.

The book looked a little old in the light.

His fingertips tapped the table again and again, the rhythm was neither fast nor slow, and each tap made a slight sound, which was particularly clear in this silent space.

While he was thinking, he saw Jinzhong walking quickly towards him. His footsteps seemed a little abrupt in the quiet palace.

"Your servant pays respects to His Majesty."

The voice was full of humility.

Then he continued, "Your Majesty, I have delivered the reward from the Yikun Palace."

Having followed the emperor for nearly fifty years in both his past and present lives, Jinzhong was well aware of his temperament, so he was extremely cautious with every word and every action he took.

Although the emperor is a little stupid, he has a very bad temper.

Jinzhong thought silently in his heart, but his face still had a flattering and somewhat sincere expression.

"What was the Queen's reaction? Was she in a good mood after seeing Xiao Lingzi?"

When he saw Jinzhong, the emperor immediately couldn't wait to ask the question that concerned him most.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and although he seemed to be smiling, there was no warmth in that smile, but instead a sense of pleasure after revenge.

This idea is really brilliant. The queen must not let him down.

"I didn't dare to look at it for too long. I think it was a reward from the Emperor. The Empress must be very pleased."

When serving the emperor, the most taboo thing is to kick someone when he is down. This is the best answer.

Although the emperor sometimes seems to be easily influenced by others, he is not stupid and you can tell what he means after just a few words.

Therefore, in front of the emperor, it is best not to say anything other than what is good for the emperor.

Jinzhong is the most honest person. He has always been cautious in the palace. He didn't dare to look at her for too long. Maybe it was the expression shown by the queen at that time that made him dare not say much?

The emperor knew in his heart what kind of personality the queen had; he knew her best.

"Oh? Joy? I'm afraid it's heartache?"

The emperor sneered and clenched his back teeth.

"The servant dare not."

Jinzhong lowered his head and replied humbly.

"Don't dare? Then why does he dare?

It was as if he was answering Jinzhong, but also as if he was talking to himself. The emperor's gaze shifted from Jinzhong to the book "Wall Horseback Ride", hatred swirling in his eyes.

After a few breaths, he raised his hand and hurled the book fiercely in front of Jinzhong. The book arced through the air and landed heavily on the ground, carrying the emperor's anger and dissatisfaction.

"From now on, books like this are not allowed to appear in the Yangxin Palace..."

She took revenge on Ling Yunche and Ruyi, but she did not feel any pleasure in her heart. Instead, she felt endless humiliation.

He trusted Ruyi so much that he gave her the jade ruyi symbolizing his wife's status as a concubine; he also gave her her father's title of first-class duke. The Ulanara clan, despite having no capable ministers and no great achievements, were able to inherit the title of first-class duke and live in peace; he even gave her the most important position in the harem, the Empress Dowager...

But what about her? How did she repay herself?

She disobeyed him many times, even verbally offending him over an insignificant guard.

A queen, so intimate with a guard...

Such torture is nothing compared to the humiliation he suffered.

He would never let these two have an easy time...

More than a year later, he stepped into the Yiku Palace again.

But the purpose is very different from before.

Yurong and her group were naturally happy and decorated the entire Yiku Palace beautifully.

Only Rong Pei is the only person in Yikun Palace who understands the Queen's thoughts.

Seeing Ling Yunche become a ghost today, he felt some resentment towards the emperor.

She felt sorry for her master, and she had seen how the Queen had been living over the years.

The Emperor did this just to humiliate the Empress. He always liked to humiliate the people around the Empress.

It is obvious that the Empress only loves the Emperor in her heart. I am afraid that the Emperor's visit today is not just for dinner.

This was the first time the emperor met Ruyi.

She looked haggard, her fair skin looked dull and lifeless, and no amount of makeup could hide her red and swollen eyes from crying so hard.

There was a slight redness around her eyes and her eyelids were a little swollen, obviously she had experienced a period of sad crying.

When facing the emperor, there was no expression on her face and all her emotions were deeply hidden.

The expression that was faintly filled with disgust was still revealed inadvertently. Although she tried her best to conceal it, the emperor still caught it keenly.

"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."

Ruyi bent her knees slightly, her voice flat and cold, lacking her usual gentleness and kindness.

Seeing her pretending to be fine, the emperor's originally depressed heart felt a little relieved.

The emperor wore a smile, but it didn't reach his eyes, revealing a hint of smugness and mockery. He personally reached over and took Ruyi's hand. The gesture seemed intimate, but in reality, it felt forced. His fingers gripped Ruyi's hand tightly, as if asserting some kind of sovereignty.

Ruyi's hand was held by him, and it felt like being entangled by a cold snake. She felt disgusted, but she couldn't break free. The emperor pulled Ruyi towards the dining table, his steps brisk, as if he was in a good mood.

He pretended to be familiar with her and said, "The Queen has lost weight these days. Do you like the reward I sent today?"

There was a hint of sarcasm in the emperor's tone. He deliberately mentioned the reward just to see Ruyi's reaction.

He knew that Ruyi had always been brooding over Ling Yunche's affairs, and he sent Ling Yunche to Yikun Palace to be a eunuch just to provoke Ruyi.

Ruyi's body was stiff. She could feel his warm body temperature on her hand, but somehow, a biting cold began to spread all over her body.

Looking at the emperor in front of her who knew the truth but was deliberately mocking her, Ruyi felt very aggrieved.

Why doesn't the emperor believe her?

She was clearly innocent, but the emperor would rather believe those people's frame-ups than the woman who had been by his side all the way.

Her heart felt cold.

After a long while, she reluctantly raised the corners of her mouth.

"This is a reward from the Emperor. I am overjoyed."

Seeing Ruyi's reaction, the emperor's smile deepened, with a hint of pride and satisfaction in it.

He just wanted to see Ruyi unhappy. Only when he saw Ruyi in pain would he feel at ease.

"Okay, since the Queen is happy, then let Xiao Lingzi come up and serve the Queen at dinner?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Lingzi walked in. He was hunching over so hard that his posture almost crushed him. His face was completely devoid of color, as white as a sheet of paper, lifeless.

With his head lowered and his hands clenched tightly, his nails almost digging into his flesh, endless humiliation covered his heart.

Eunuchs have no right to stand up straight in front of their masters.

"The slave obeys the order."

Xiao Lingzi responded in a low voice.
