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

The emperor was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Ruyi and shouted.

"You warned me in the name of the Empress! I, in the name of the Son of Heaven, solemnly warn you: do not contradict or disobey me again! Ruyi, look at yourself. Since you became Empress, when have you ever been truly docile? You contradict me in every way, completely failing to fulfill the duties and responsibilities of a Empress. When Empress Xiaoxian was alive, she was so virtuous and kind, managing the harem in perfect order, and everyone respected her. And Imperial Noble Consort Ling was so gentle and always considerate of my wishes. And you? The thing I regret most over the years is personally helping you ascend to the throne of Empress!"

The emperor became more and more excited as he spoke. His face turned red and the veins on his neck bulged. As he spoke, the saliva he spat out flew everywhere, almost hitting Ruyi's face.

Many dissatisfactions between the couple burst out at this moment.

Empress Xiaoxian.

It’s Empress Xiaoxian again!

The virtuous reputation left by Fu Cha Langhua is like a heavy mountain, always weighing on Ruyi's heart.

Ever since she ascended the throne, those around her had constantly compared her to Empress Xiaoxian. She had thought the Emperor, her childhood sweetheart and former close friend, would be different, but now, even he was being so blunt, ruthlessly thrusting the same blade at her.

Ruyi's eyes suddenly turned cold as she stared at the emperor with a cold gaze. That gaze, like the dark ice in the cold night, seemed to be able to penetrate the soul.

"What do you mean by looking at me like this?"

The emperor was stared at by her cold gaze, and he felt inexplicably guilty. He subconsciously straightened his back and sat up straight, trying to regain some dignity.

A self-deprecating smile appeared on Ruyi's lips, and her voice was cold and deep.

"Ever since I ascended the throne of Empress, Your Majesty has constantly compared me to Empress Xiaoxian. Even today, he's even declared me inferior to your Imperial Noble Consort. Your Imperial Noble Consort has so diligently sought to please Your Majesty, using all her charm to seduce him. All she covets is the wealth and honor Your Majesty can bestow upon her. Your Majesty, please consider carefully: Isn't your current state the result of so long immersing yourself in their endless indulgence and flattery? And you actually compare me to her. It truly chills my heart to the core."

Even at this moment, Ruyi always believed that it was Yanwan who caused the emperor to become like this.

She loved blindly, and naturally believed that everything was the women's fault. But from the beginning to the end, it was the man in front of her who brought misery to the women in the harem.

Everyone is because of the emperor.

Even if Empress Xiaoxian had not passed away, she and the emperor would not have been faithful to each other. The emperor's romantic and amorous nature meant that he was destined not to be the husband she imagined.

Over the years, she has made outrageous mistakes and even blamed everything on other women.

Her arrogance and delusion harmed her.

"I just want to compare you with them, what can you do to me?"

The emperor's voice became high-pitched with anger, and his eyes were wide open, staring at Ruyi.

"You say that the Imperial Noble Consort covets wealth and glory? Humph, those were all given by me voluntarily. I am happy to reward her. She can please me, and that is her ability. And you? Don't forget, everything you have now is a gift from me. If it weren't for me, do you think your Ulanara family could have survived in this capital? We would have long since become a decadent clan, submerged in the dust!"

The emperor's hair stood on end with rage, and the veins on his forehead bulged like earthworms. He was trembling with anger, and could no longer suppress his rage. He stood up anxiously, clenched his fists, and glared at Ruyi.

In his opinion, the Queen's words and deeds now were simply unreasonable, and he himself had long been on the verge of collapse in this endless quarrel and conflict.

He was fed up with Ruyi's stubbornness and resistance, and fed up with the never-ending disputes.

It’s better to speak out openly, put an end to it all, and completely put an end to this endless pain and torture.

"Is this the position of Empress that I myself longed for and actively sought?"

Ruyi's voice trembled slightly, but revealed a sense of stubbornness and unwillingness.

"Since I entered this palace, decades have flown by. I once naively believed that, with the deep friendship we shared since childhood, Your Majesty would be able to safely navigate the many hardships and dangers of this palace. But who could have foreseen the unpredictable nature of life and the fickleness of human nature? Your Majesty, on the other hand, now harbors only suspicion and mistrust of me. The friendship we once held has long since been completely eroded by your daily indifference and suspicion."

Ruyi stood quietly, looking at the emperor with a firm and sad gaze, pouring out word by word the pain and disappointment that had been accumulating in her heart for many years.

Two people in love ended up with a tragic ending where both were hurt, leaving only regret and melancholy lingering in this empty and lonely heart for a long time.

Hearing her say this, the emperor sneered.

"Then are you my Qingying? My Qingying would never be like this, or... did I misjudge you? Qingying would never talk back to me like this, would never disobey me. Looking at you, I just feel like we're a stranger."

"Isn't it the Emperor who forced me to become what I am now? I am already too tired and exhausted from being the Queen."

Looking at the emperor's ridiculous behavior, Ruyi couldn't help but close her eyes.

She had long forgotten the purpose of her visit and was only focused on arguing with the emperor.

If she was willing to take a step back and give him a way out, he wouldn't have to take that step.

Unfortunately, she only wanted to vent her emotions. After so many years of torture in this deep palace, she desperately wanted to find an outlet to vent her anger.

"Which woman in the harem isn't like this? As the Empress, how can you compare to Empress Xiaoxian's virtue? You dare say you're tired? The concubines in the palace help you with everything, and I've never been overly picky about you. Now that you can't even be a Empress like this, why don't I depose you?"

The emperor watched coldly, feeling a splitting headache and an unconscious pain in his chest. His recent absurd behavior had already damaged his body, and now that Ruyi was furious, he felt his blood boiling and couldn't breathe.

He endured the discomfort in his body and confronted her.

"Well, if that's the case, then I'll speak freely. Empress Xiaoxian was impeccable when she was alive, but wasn't the Emperor suspicious of her in every way, causing her to be terrified? Now that she's gone, he's missing her everywhere. Does he really love her deeply? He's just pretending to be affectionate!"

Ruyi looked at him disappointedly, but now that she could speak freely, the heavy burden in her heart was finally lifted.

Now I just feel relaxed all over.
