How To Survive as a Villain

In that place, the fat and thin servants were debating whether the instructions given by Eunuch Zhao were done, and whether they should let Yan HeQing go.

As soon as they looked up, they saw that Steward Feng, Eunuch Zhao’s lackey, came over.

“Steward Feng!” The two quickly nodded and bowed.

“Good.” Steward Feng waved his hand arrogantly, then looked at Yan HeQing.

Yan HeQing lowered his head without saying a word.

Steward Feng wasn’t angry because of this. He simply raised his foot and kicked hard on Yan HeQing: “Kneel down.”

Yan HeQing stumbled, hitting his knees heavily.

“What? Weren’t you happy to talk back last time? Why don’t you talk again now?” Steward Feng circled around Yan HeQing, then he reached out his hand squeezing his cheeks, forcing him to look up.

Steward Feng was trying to intimidate and insult him, but how could he have known that by looking at Yan Heqing’s eyes he would feel so agitated. Yan HeQing’s eyes showed contempt and disgust.

“You, you, you dare stare at me?” Steward Feng slapped Yan HeQing and then hooked the hand of the fat servant: “Come, hit him on the mouth.”

“Sure thing.” The fat slave smiled before walking forward, swung his arm, and hit Yan HeQing twice.

Steward Feng looked at him coldly, but then felt shocked.

In this case, if ordinary people were afraid that they would make the bullies erupt in anger, this Yan HeQing, not only was enduring the humiliation, but he also didn’t bend his back from beginning to end.

He’s not a coward at all. Eunuch Zhao, that old fox, he really knows how to read people.

Steward Feng felt that Yan HeQing’s straight back was too unpleasant to look at. He couldn’t help but step forward and kick him on the waist.

Yan HeQing was kicked to the ground, and when he fell heavily, something rolled out of his sleeves.

The thin slave’s eyes were sharp. He picked up the thing and taking a closer look at it, he found out that it was a hairpin made with fine jade: “Steward Feng, look at this.”

Yan HeQing hurriedly touched his sleeves, his face showing an alarming expression of panic.

Steward Feng took the hairpin and said with disdain: “Oh, what a piece of cheap garbage.”

“Give it back to me!” Yan HeQing suddenly got up wanting to step forward to fight, but was stopped by the fat and thin slaves.

Seeing Yan HeQing’s reaction, Steward Feng raised a sly smile: “Although looking at this garbage, it shouldn’t be worth more than a few coins, so don’t ask for it. You should be filial to me.”

“What good thing? I want to be filial too.” Xiao YuAn whispered in Steward Feng’s ear.

Steward Feng shouted scared shitless, and turned to scold: “Are you stupid or…Your Majesty!!!!!!?”

The three of them were frightened by the sudden appearance of Xiao YuAn, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, kneeling and kowtowing: “Y-yo-your M-ma-majesty, y-you, h-how come you’re here?”

Xiao YuAn naturally came here to see Yan HeQing. How could he have known that Yan HeQing was being humiliated.

How long has it been since the last snow punishment by kneeling? How come you’re doing things again? Are the villains now so conscientious? Don’t you take a rest? Is the task really so important?

Xiao YuAn reached out his hand towards Steward Feng: “What were you talking about?”

Steward Feng quickly presented the jade hairpin with both hands. Xiao YuAn took a look at it and suddenly felt scared of throwing it down by accident.

Oh for my third aunt, sixth aunt and seventh uncle’s sake. Do you know what this is? Be filial to you? You should honor your coffin plate, you cactus butt!

This jade hairpin is a relic of the male lead’s mother! It’s also a token of love that Yan HeQing will give to Princess Yongning in the near future!!!

How dare you want this?

How are you still alive?

Did you get tired of living?

You will have to die in silence!!!

Xiao YuAn was so scared of damaging it by accident, that he turned around and put the hairpin in Hong Xiu’s hands: “Hong Xiu, hold this carefully first, and don’t break it!”

Hong Xiu nodded in response.

Xiao YuAn patted his chest and looked towards Yan HeQing. When he saw him in thin clothes, he sighed helplessly.

The male lead in the early stage, it’s really too pitiful.

Xiao YuAn walked over a few steps, took off his robe, and wrapped it around Yan HeQing.

Yan HeQing’s body was stiff and his brow furrowed, obviously with resistance, but still he didn’t say a word.

You’re so miserable, don’t disdain me if you can!

Xiao YuAn asked: “Can you get up?”

Yan HeQing nodded his head, but he staggered when he got up, his body was unstable.

Xiao YuAn turned his head and said: “LiuAn, take him inside.”

Yang LiuAn clenched his fist and obeyed the order, helping Yan HeQing enter the room.

Xiao YuAn looked back at the three people that had been kneeling for a long time. They felt Xiao YuAn’s gaze and the three of them started shivering in fear.

What are you afraid of? Why didn’t you feel that you were about to die not long ago when bullying the male lead?

“Come on, get up.” Xiao YuAn raised his hand.

The three quickly scrambled to their feet.

Xiao YuAn: “Stand in a row, take a rest and look to the left.”

The three slaves: “Ah?”

“Ah, what, stand up.” Xiao YuAn knelt towards the snow at the ground and rolled three snowballs, then one by one, he stuffed them inside the three slave’s clothes.

The three men were immediately gritting their teeth and their faces were twisted because of the snow.

“Come, repeat after me.” Xiao YuAn patted off the snow on his hands. “If he doesn’t suffer, I won’t die. The villains also rely on their brains.”

The three slaves were at a loss: “Ah? …”

“What?” Xiao Yu’an smashed their heads one by one, “Repeat!”

The three slaves: “If he doesn’t suffer, I won’t die. The villains also rely on their brains…”

Xiao YuAn: “If I’m not intelligent enough, I will die. I must be a fool if I try to get the male lead humiliated again.”

The three slaves: “…If I’m not intelligent enough, I will die. I must be a fool if I try to get the male lead humiliated again.”

“Well, go back to read and recite it out loud. Remember it well, this will be on the final test.” Xiao YuAn nodded with satisfaction, “Well, what should I do now?”

It didn’t seem that Xiao YuAn would let them go so easily. The three looked at each other, shouted their thanks to the Emperor, and then quickly ran away.

Xiao YuAn was about to enter the inner Court to see Yan HeQing, but he felt Hong Xiu staring at him, so he asked: “What’s the matter?”

“Ah…” Hong Xiu looked back in a trance, then she hesitantly asked, “Since His Majesty cares a lot for this Southern Yan Kingdom Prince, why didn’t you vent the anger on his behalf?”

“Huh? What do you mean?” Xiao YuAn was confused.

Hong Xiu said: “Naturally, in front of his face, punish these three dog slaves, dig their eyes out, cut their tongues and break their hands.”

Xiao YuAn: “…”

Why do you suddenly become horrifying Hong Xiu! Or this is your true essence, and I didn’t realize!

Xiao YuAn thought for a while and said, “The House of Internal Affairs has always been disciplined but now bullying has happened. Do you think Eunuch Zhao won’t know about it?”

Hong Xiu suddenly responded: “Your Majesty, you mean…”

Xiao YuAn smiled slightly: “Yes, they were just taking orders.”

Hong Xiu’s face revealed doubts: “But why would Eunuch Zhao want to humiliate the Prince of the Southern Yan Kingdom?”

Xiao YuAn sighed: “Because of the Northern Kingdom, because of me…”

This sentence, on the contrary, made Hong Xiu more confused: “Your Majesty?”

Xiao YuAn looked at Hong Xiu and his eyes twinkled: “Hong Xiu, you have to promise me one thing. In any case, don’t do anything to Yan HeQing, got it?”

Hong Xiu quickly salutes: “His Majesty can be at ease, this maidservant will remember it to heart.”

“Good.” Xiao YuAn nodded with confidence and stepped into the room.
