Run! The Villainous Tyrannical Emperor Grabbed the Wrong Script! - Chapter 1

Kunhe Palace.

“Are you truly leaving?”

“Empress Dowager, Ruanruan is also very reluctant to leave you, but I have no choice. Three years ago, I publicly confessed my love to the Third Prince, which disgusted him.

Now that the Third Prince has ascended to the position of Crown Prince, the Crown Princess has been chosen. I fear that in the future, neither the Crown Prince nor the Crown Princess will treat me kindly.

Even with Your Majesty’s love, there will eventually come a day when you can no longer protect me. It’s better to leave early and resolve the grievances from that year.”

Yun Ruanruan lifted her handkerchief and wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes.

She cried so pitifully, like a pear blossom bathed in rain, that it made people’s hearts ache for her.

The Empress Dowager rose and helped Yun Ruanruan up from the floor, wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

The more she looked, the more her heart ached.

Ruanruan was her niece.

Her parents had died when she was young, so the Empress Dowager brought her back to Kunhe Palace and personally raised her.

This child had been beautiful since childhood, holding the title of the most beautiful woman in the capital.

With an oval face, willow-leaf eyebrows, skin as white as snow, and eyes like a clear spring, bright and lively, she resembled the clouds drifting in the sky, soft and holy, making people want to protect her dearly.

The more the Empress Dowager looked, the more distressed she became; the more she thought, the more saddened she felt, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.

“This child, you are so good, how could he be so blind and not appreciate you? A concubine-born is a concubine-born. Even if he becomes the Crown Prince, he will never truly be on the same level.”

“Empress Dowager, please don’t say anymore. Everything is my fault.”

“Enough, enough. Since things have come to this, leaving might be a good thing for you.”

The Empress Dowager embraced Yun Ruanruan in her arms and sighed deeply.

“After you return to your father’s fief, write to me often. If you lack anything, or if someone bullies you, you must tell me, and I will certainly seek justice for you.”

Yun Ruanruan nodded. “Thank you, Empress Dowager. I will certainly miss you.”

“Good, good.”

Leaving Kunhe Palace, Yun Ruanruan encountered the future Crown Princess, Lu Junya.

“Are you truly leaving?”

Yun Ruanruan nodded firmly.

“Why are you so resolute? Actually, I’m also reluctant for you to leave. If you go, I won’t even have anyone to talk to.”

Lu Junya held Yun Ruanruan’s hand. “Why don’t you reconsider?”

Yun Ruanruan smiled, released her hand, and then placed both hands on Lu Junya’s shoulders.

“You will soon be the Crown Princess. In the future, you will be the mother of the nation. You bear a heavy responsibility and will be very busy in the future.”

Hearing these words, a blush immediately rose on Lu Junya’s face.

“We’re not married yet, don’t speak nonsense.”

“The wedding is imminent. What is meant to be yours will definitely not escape. In this vast world, there is no one more outstanding and suitable than you.”

Yun Ruanruan paused and added,

“You must assist the Crown Prince well and create a peaceful and prosperous world. Whether I can keep my idle bowl of rice in the fief depends entirely on you.”

“Don’t worry, if I am in power, I will not let you suffer any grievances.” Lu Junya said with a serious expression.

After bidding farewell to Lu Junya, Yun Ruanruan looked back at the attendant behind her and revealed a smile different from the one before.

“Which performance was more convincing, the farewell crying scene or the rainbow-fart blowing?”

Yu Le, who was behind her, looked up at Yun Ruanruan and remained silent.

In the past three years, her ability to speak differently to different people had become perfected.

Throughout the entire script, from top to bottom, there wasn’t a single promising character she didn’t have a good relationship with.

She had long grown accustomed to it, yet she insisted on asking every time, to show off her superb acting skills.

“Sigh, with my acting skills, if I could ever go back…”

It would be impossible not to win ten or eight Best Actress awards.

Yu Le could already recite the entire speech by heart.

The two hadn’t walked far along the palace path when they encountered someone head-on: the former Third Prince, the current Crown Prince, Shen Ruizhi.

Yun Ruanruan immediately composed herself and bowed her head in greeting.

Her plan didn’t include making a good impression on him before leaving.

“Greetings, Your Highness.”

“You haven’t even left, and you’re already treating me like a stranger?”

“Your Highness, etiquette cannot be neglected.”

“Then was it also etiquette when you threw yourself at my feet and hugged my thigh?”

“Your Highness, let bygones be bygones.”

“You’re leaving so潇洒. Do you know…”

Yun Ruanruan suddenly knelt down, her voice amplified several times, interrupting Shen Ruizhi’s words.

“Ruanruan greets His Majesty, long live the Emperor, ten thousand years, ten thousand years, ten thousand ten thousand years!”

Shen Ruizhi followed Yun Ruanruan’s gaze and saw that at the end of the palace path, far away, the Emperor’s carriage was passing by, preparing to turn a corner, with no intention of coming this way.

Hearing Yun Ruanruan’s voice, the Emperor turned his head, ordered the carriage to stop, and waved to them, signaling them to approach.

Shen Ruizhi turned back and glanced at Yun Ruanruan, gritting his teeth and whispering,

“Your eyes are sharp, and your voice is loud enough.”

“Your Highness, it is etiquette to kowtow when seeing the Emperor.”

“You truly are as clever as ever.”

As expected, after the greetings, the Emperor kept Shen Ruizhi for discussion, and Yun Ruanruan quickly slipped away.

The Princess’s Residence.

Back in her room, Yun Ruanruan slammed the door shut with a “bang.”

She took off her cloak and tossed it aside, then plopped down on the couch, casually placing her feet on the table.

“Tea.”

Yun Ruanruan stretched out her hand, and a cup of tea was placed in her palm.

“Back rub.”

A pair of hands quickly and professionally began massaging her back.

“Comfortable.”

“Just leaving the palace requires dealing with the male lead, the female lead, the old, and the young, one by one. I almost couldn’t get out. Tell me, was it easy for me?”

“Not easy, not easy at all.”

The attendant behind Yun Ruanruan sighed and poured herself a cup of tea as well.

“Xiao Yu, three years, three years! I’ve been working overtime for three whole years! For these three years, to save my little life, I’ve been walking on thin ice, constantly currying favor and hugging thighs. I’m going crazy!”

“It’s been hard, Sis, you’ve worked so hard.”

At this moment, Yu Le also felt deeply moved.

Three years ago, she, a small assistant, and her artist had transmigrated together.

It had been truly difficult, and they had finally made it!

Yun Ruanruan slammed the table.

“Bring the wine! Let’s celebrate that after three years of hardship, we’ve finally wrapped up filming!”

“Ruan-jie, are you serious?”

“I’m serious, what’s wrong?”

“Didn’t you say yesterday that after we finish our farewells, we’d pack up and head to the fief today to live a life of leisure?”

“It’s just one day. I’m happy, bring the wine! The strongest kind!”

“Alright, let’s drink till we drop tonight!”

“Drink till we drop!”

Yu Le ordered the servants to bring in nearly a hundred jars of wine.

Yun Ruanruan stared dumbfounded at the densely packed wine jars.

“Xiao Yu, are you serious?”

“Ruan-jie, I’m serious. These are all the wines you have stored in the Princess’s Residence, all gifts from those wealthy big shots. Each jar is a priceless treasure. You can’t take them with you anyway, so rather than leaving them for others, it’s better to drink them yourself.”

“But with so much wine, I’ll get alcohol poisoning, won’t I?”

“Ruan-jie, from now on, we’re people with money, land, and freedom. It’s okay if we can’t finish it all. We’ll just taste a bit from each jar, and use the rest to mop the floor.”

“Xiao Yu, you’ve learned to be extravagant in these three years.”

“Ruan-jie, we’ve been lying low for three years. The rest of our lives will be filled with wealth and honor. Why not get used to it today?”

“Good!” Yun Ruanruan slammed the table and picked up a jar of wine, uncovering it. “Embracing extravagance, starting now.”

“Cheers!”

“Cheers!”
