"Lee Jun! You have quite the nerve!” An angered male voice yelled out, the sound of a hand hitting flesh echoing across the lavish chamber. Lee Jun dropped to the floor, holding her reddening cheek. “What have I done to be so wrong?! This harlot–” she starts as she gives a furious glare to the pitiful woman crying on the floor.

“This harlot had the audacity to seduce a man on the outside, showing improper behavior at the palace gates! Tis’ only natural I, with my noble consort status, to discipline her.” She stated to the man, calming her voice down as she spoke. Noble lady Yin, the pitiful woman crying on the floor, sobbed in dismay as she shook her head.
288Please respect copyright.PENANA05RhVYwM0N
“Your Majesty, believe me– I did no such thing.” She said, large eyes looking up at the Emperor pleadingly, making herself look even more pathetic.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAaZnEoYs0Ii
He looked at her with softened eyes, a hand coming to pull her gently into his embrace. “I know you would never betray me, not in such a manner.” He reassured, a hand stroking through the woman’s long dark hair affectionately.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAKmoIPjg6QG
Lee Jun’s eyes widened and heart raced at the display, feeling panicked now. Her husband wasn’t truly going to believe this harlot’s words over hers, right?
288Please respect copyright.PENANAsYcszk10ms
“As for you–” the man’s gaze turned cold as he looked at Lee Jun, filled with disgust. “An imperial decree shall be passed. Due to long term jealousy, your words have turned to sin, Lee Jun. Your title of Noble Consort Lee shall be stripped and demoted as Consort Lee.”
288Please respect copyright.PENANAoefoGGxCDd
Overbearing tears filled her eyes at the man who once loved her truly spoke down to her, although only flowed down her pale cheeks at the sweet gaze he gave Yin. “As for Noble Lady Yin, having shown proof of being highly cultured and steeped in proprietary, always observant of Imperial decrees. Along with success in becoming pregnant with an heir to the throne, she shall be given the title Consort Yin!”
288Please respect copyright.PENANAFf9MJjxDVA
Soon-to-be ranked Consort Yin face lit up, a bright smile forming on her face and rosy cheek blossoming red. “You already found out, your Majesty?”
288Please respect copyright.PENANAXvj3wlJaop
“Of course, I hurriedly came to see you once the Physician told me. I didn’t expect Consort Lee to have come to you first…” he said as he began leading Yin out of the chamber, the former Noble Lady leaning into his hold eagerly. “Older Sister did not know your Majesty. She simply harbors some misunderstood anger towards me…” she said softly, making her sound and look even more venerable.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAfeyuLAdogc
“You truly believe this harlot is harboring your child?” Lee Jun asked with a finger pointed at Yin, sounding outraged and disbelieving of that.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAA0ov4eG262
Emperor looked at her with contempt and said: "Correct, I cannot allow you harm her or our child." His voice was cold towards her, looking at her as if she was an enemy he wished to squish.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAuJznV0i0cC
Lee Jun could barely hold it anymore. She fell to her knees and laughed, shaking her head slightly. Who knew her own husband would betray her and think of her in such a manner? Even believing she would have harmed a pregnant woman had she known about her condition, even if she was a disgusting harlot.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAortQRhpW4Q
“Harm?” She repeated, letting out another laugh. “Is that what his Majesty thinks of me? Even after four years of marriage?”
288Please respect copyright.PENANAdS4XhPoXmE
The Emperor stared coldly at her.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAA4ngyjuFH0
Lee Jun crawled over to the Emperor, soft hands reaching out to clench onto his robe slightly. “The first year of our marriage– before ascending the throne– remember when the Crown Prince tried poisoning your cup, yet I grabbed it and drank it for you?”
288Please respect copyright.PENANAxiLSbqrZqv
The Emperor opened his mouth to interrupt, although the foreign Consort continued. “When a rebellion started against you, was it not I who spent seven nights kneeling in the snow, begging my father and brother to help your cause? Or the night before your ascension, when the Rebels managed to launch a coup in the Palace, was it not I who ran and took that nearly fatal blow for you?” She rambled on the events desperately.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAR86vFlFGGP
“Even in times before that, have I ever WRONGED you before?” She asked, voice breaking. Has this man truly abandoned her for this woman who only entered the Palace at the beginning of the year?
288Please respect copyright.PENANAO9zDof9XXm
The Emperor stood astounded, hands trembling as he reached out to gently touch the weeping woman. Yin, noticing the action, immediately fell to her knees and allowed tears to fall down her cheeks once more.
288Please respect copyright.PENANARAs9fMXyfl
“Your Masjesty, please forgive Consort Lee! The Lee family influence is great. If Elder Sister’s family knew of her grievances, I fear–” She quieted a second to let out another sob, secretly pushing Lee Jun away from the Emperor when he didn’t notice to grab at his robes instead. “I do not wish for you to be troubled in my stead, please forgive Elder Sister…”
288Please respect copyright.PENANAvhRqivqTbr
“HOW DARE YOU–!” Lee Jun cursed loudly, rage filling her once more. The Emperor however stopped her from doing something reckless with a cold look. “Lee Jun! Sooth your temper!”
288Please respect copyright.PENANApwjtc4zrX5
The Emperor turned his attention back to Yin helping pull her off her knees gently. “Yin, do not lower yourself for others. You are an innocent in this.” He embraced the newly-ranked Consort gently, eyes glaring at Lee Jun as if wishing to strike her again.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAnhksPGn3tI
“As punishment for lacking discipline from what must be your General Father’s failure, you shall be placed under house arrest to consider your words and actions, Lee Jun!”
288Please respect copyright.PENANAjgkBkHYAr5
Lee Jun froze up at what she was hearing. He was believing this wench over her? She felt her heart shatter.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAVch2rCoXDK
Lee Jun watched silently in betrayal as the Emperor carried Consort Lin in his arms, taking her away. She tensed up when the man paused for a moment, turning his head to give her a look of pure rage.
288Please respect copyright.PENANA7qotCPb1rf
“People change over the years. Lee Jun, I was wrong to believe a foreign-born woman such as you could truly be anything more than a venomous snake!”
288Please respect copyright.PENANA7xxECctpeE
Lee Jun felt her world begin to fall apart.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAtJXXU5MrWa
"Now-" the Emperor said, dark eyes filled with contempt told her: "I can't even look at you-"
288Please respect copyright.PENANA11mFXAiooA
Then the door behind him shut.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAaD7OYFDSMT
*BAM*
288Please respect copyright.PENANAblaUKljIoG
Lee Jun felt the life drain out of her. She laughed softly to herself as tears drummed in her eyes. “Can’t look at me?” She muttered in despair, the light fading from her eyes.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAT0eJTgdedF
“I’m the venomous snake? Events seem that if anyone is the snake, it’s you!” Lee Jun yelled before she slammed her head into the iron pillar, her despair making her not care of the blood nor pain in her skull. She was broken. Betrayed by her beloved… there was nothing left to live for.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAz7ra90ddC8
Why-? Why?
288Please respect copyright.PENANAsRDbyEyz53
She has loved and devoted herself to him for years, saving his lives multiple times. He, who told her despite’s her foreign-born family, she was the most precious person to him. Yet he–?
288Please respect copyright.PENANAFhrTd4Am9y
A sob escaped her lips as she fell against the pillar, blood running down her head. Why was she replaced so easily? Lee Jun closed her eyes, voice calling out weakly, “Your Majesty–”
288Please respect copyright.PENANAUscH1I6dsw
Her eyes dimmed before blackening, the woman unable to wish a curse upon those who betrayed her.

Lee Jun’s eyes opened as she took a moment to collect herself, a hand going to her bloodied temple. “Aiya, the Original Host of this body was so ruthless! This must be a concession!”
288Please respect copyright.PENANALgm4rKzKhv
[Apologies for the timing, but Management found it best to help the Original Host get her revenge at this point in time, counterattacking her fate.]
288Please respect copyright.PENANASGeBe2rtzf
’Didn’t even give me a warning, but no matter.’ Lee Jun placed a hand over her forehead and frowned at the blood. “What strength! The Original Host was such a ruthless woman!”
288Please respect copyright.PENANAqTNfQCPTho
[I have just given you the Original Host’s memories! Are you ready to achieve vengeance?]
288Please respect copyright.PENANAHlcxslOeyj
“Great… another annoying bastard…” Lee Jun growled, a hand going to her swollen cheek. “This bastard actually had the nerve to hit a woman too…”
288Please respect copyright.PENANADMdgbDNdpz
[Ah, just this once. Perhaps it was because he was manipulated?]
288Please respect copyright.PENANAlnkSeAuWH0
“A man who hits a defenseless woman once, will do so again a thousand times. Manipulated or not.” Lee Jun inspects herself curiously, noticing her clothing.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAOq6RHpnR56
[During this time period, it was normal for husbands to discipline their wives. It’s the concubine Ancient Chinese period after all!]
288Please respect copyright.PENANAPzB18XAvrn
“Ancient China, hm? Alright… this drama better be good~”
288Please respect copyright.PENANA766iLxNZIN
[Good? Lee Jun, this isn’t a game!]
288Please respect copyright.PENANAQsYIjpy2ZM
“To me it is– the last bitch and bastard committed suicide, I couldn’t have all my fun with them.” Lee Jun said with a pout.
288Please respect copyright.PENANAu8Qmbq4olW
[You truly are a scary host! You’re ready then? For vengeance?]
288Please respect copyright.PENANAtqxg5LSbbj
“Always! Share me the details of this world now– let’s start this show.” Lee Jun smirked as she sat herself down on the bed, glad she was currently under house arrest in such a comfortable place. “Torturing a scumbag who strikes women… I’ll make sure to make him suffer~”
288Please respect copyright.PENANAqOMdpPBMjv
[Why must you be so ruthless Lee Jun?! Such scary aura!]
