An Lingrong bit her lip in embarrassment, and looked at the emperor with beautiful eyes: "The concubine just hopes that the emperor can be happy, and the rest can be endured by the concubine." ”

Seeing that the emperor didn't speak, she continued: "The concubine is from a humble background, she has neither outstanding appearance nor skills, and being favored by the emperor is a blessing cultivated in her previous life, how dare you think more?" The concubines are happy with the emperor, but whenever the emperor has mercy, the concubines are satisfied. If the emperor is happy, the concubines will be happy, and for the rest, the concubines don't ask for anything. ”

The emperor's heart was touched, and the soft voice fell into his ears, as if he wanted to drill into his heart, he couldn't help but compare her with Zhen Huan, and found that he was difficult to choose for a while.

Huan Huan's appearance is outstanding, and she is eight points like Chunyuan, which affects his love for many years, plus she is full of poems and books, and she is the only one in the palace who can have an opinion or two with herself, which can be regarded as a unique like-minded.

Rong'er has a unique timbre, almost exactly the same as Chunyuan, sometimes when she closes her eyes and listens to her sing two sentences, it is as if Chunyuan is by her side, and her temperament is also first-class docile, and speaking can always make him feel comfortable, even if it is a queen, it is difficult to be so intimate as her.

Moreover, Rong'er is more in awe, perhaps because of her low background, she looks up to the imperial power more and more, and it seems that her family often has this intention when she teaches her.

The emperor suddenly remembered that the recent report in Jiangsu and Zhejiang said that most of this year's taxes had been collected, among which Songyang in the prefecture had made remarkable achievements, saying that it was the credit of Jiang Wenqing, the county commander. I don't know who took the fame......

"My Rong'er is the most intimate." The emperor hugged An Lingrong and sighed, "Don't wronged yourself, I promise you, you can ask for more." ”

An Lingrong stretched out his hand to hug the emperor's neck, pressed himself and the emperor tightly together, and smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

It was kept warm for a long time, and it was not until Su Peisheng came to pass Zhang Tingyu to ask to see that An Lingrong withdrew from the Qinzheng Hall and walked all the way towards Bitong Academy.

Shen Meizhuang had indeed arrived, and was talking to Zhen Huan, when they saw An Lingrong coming back, the two hurriedly got up and asked her if the emperor was still angry.

"The emperor should not be angry, and said that he would come to Sister Guan for dinner, let me come back and talk to my sister" An Lingrong sat down at the round table and drank a sip of water, "I'm so thirsty, pour me two more glasses." ”

Her anxious appearance amused Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, and Zhen Huan hurriedly poured tea for her in person, and then sat down with Shen Meizhuang.

"Sister Guan, didn't I just tell you not to have a conflict with the Zhen official woman? Why did you make the emperor angry again? An Lingrong just talked about it, "I heard what the emperor said, but it was all for my sister." ”

Zhen Huan was also annoyed: "Cao Guiren set up two traps in a row waiting for me to throw myself into the net, I dodged the first one, and before I could react, I fell into the second trap, Huanbi...... The woman of the official Zhen arched the fire on the side again, and I couldn't hold back for a while. ”

"Alas, when Concubine Jing talked about Cao Guiren, she always told me to be careful." Shen Meizhuang also frowned, "If Concubine Hua is an eagle, Cao Guiren is her wings, if Concubine Hua is a tiger, Cao Guiren is her claws, such a person, we all underestimated it before." ”

An Lingrong nodded at Shen Meizhuang: "I saw it when I was in the Li Concubine Palace before, although Cao Guiren is usually silent, she can always make a contribution at a critical time, no wonder Concubine Hua has been by her side for so many years." After a pause, she looked at Zhen Huan again and asked, "So what happened to my sister?" I coaxed the emperor with half an understanding, and I didn't know why. ”

"I'm waiting for you to come back and talk about it." Shen Meizhuang patted An Lingrong's hand and also looked at Zhen Huan.

Zhen Huan asked the palace maids who were accompanying her to retreat, and then said: "Sister Mei, Sister Rong, do you remember the day I made a nobleman?" Seeing that the two of them nodded in unison, they continued, "I met the emperor for the first time for some reason, I didn't recognize the emperor at that time, and the emperor was afraid that I would be restrained after I knew his identity, so he lied that he was the king of Guojun, and then the Yu family swaggered, and the emperor revealed his identity to me." Just now in the Qinzheng Palace, Cao Guiren took advantage of this to make trouble, causing the emperor to think that I was interested in King Guojun first. ”

"This must have been said by the woman Zhenguan!" Shen Meizhuang frowned, and slapped the table slightly, "Huan'er has never even seen the face of King Guojun, why do you mean to say it?" ”

"I've never seen it, but I've heard of it. It is rumored that the seventeenth prince is suave, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, riding and shooting, and is an all-rounder, and many young girls in Beijing love him, but it is a pity that he is obsessed with mountains and rivers, and has no intention of starting a family at all. An Lingrong remembered the comments of King Guojun in his previous life, and suddenly remembered something.

At that time, Zhen Huan had already returned to the palace to give birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus, and the Guerjia clan slandered Zhen Huan for having an affair with Imperial Doctor Wen, and made a fuss, but he ended up with a whole family ruined.

That day, when the noble Qi said that "the concubine wants to accuse Concubine Xi of fornication and defile the harem", An Lingrong clearly saw that Zhen Huan was nervous, but after hearing the name of Imperial Doctor Wen, he breathed a sigh of relief, obviously, Zhen Huan in his previous life did have an adultery with others, but that person was not Imperial Doctor Wen.

Zhen Huan in this life suddenly talked about this, and An Lingrong had a bold idea in his heart - that person wouldn't be the king of Guojun, right?

As soon as this idea came out, An Lingrong quickly shook his head and denied himself. This is also ridiculous, in his previous life, King Guojun can be regarded as Zhen Huan's brother-in-law! He married Huanbi as a side blessing.

I don't know who King Guojun will marry in this life, Huanbi has already become the emperor's woman.

"I carefully explained it to make the emperor believe me, and the result was ...... The woman of Zhenguan was talking about something on the side, but she heard that King Guojun was good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she didn't want to know that archery was also extremely exquisite. A touch of anger appeared on Zhen Huan's face, "She has never been able to contact these princes, why did she hear that King Guojun is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" Could it be that I tell her every day? ”

"The woman of Zhenguan is really unbearable, how can you also be her old master, once you gain power, you are so arrogant, and you are not afraid of harming yourself in the end." Shen Meizhuang looked at Zhen Huan and said with a frown.

Zhen Huan didn't know what she thought, her eyes darkened slightly: "I'm afraid that she will not only harm herself, but also harm my Zhen family." She sighed deeply, and then continued, "After she said this, Cao Guiren said on the side that a few days ago, the queen mother called Zhen Guan's woman 'Zhen', and Fucha Guiren confessed that she and I were wrong, thinking that it would be better to give her a title. I...... I looked at her smug look and blurted out that it was better to give her a blue word......

"Sister is confused!" An Lingrong suddenly understood, and involuntarily reprimanded, "How can you give a title to Zhenguan Woman?" ”

Shen Meizhuang was also frightened: "No wonder the emperor is angry, Huan'er, you are really reckless." ”

Zhen Huan also knew that she had behaved inappropriately, and she was also afraid for a while: "That's what happened later, Zhen Guan's woman said aggrievedly for a while, and the emperor let her go back." At that time, I didn't know what was wrong, I was obviously thinking about patience, but I blurted out as if I was lost in my mind. ”

An Lingrong's eyebrows jumped, and she noticed that something was wrong, but this trace of error was fleeting, and she crossed it before she could catch it.

"Fortunately, Rong'er came in time today, otherwise I don't know what to do." Zhen Huan held An Lingrong's hand tightly and said, "Actually, I already regretted it when I left the Qinzheng Palace, but it was not good to go back to the palace, Sister Rong, thank you so much." ”

"My sister and the emperor are good, and everything else is easy to say." An Lingrong persuaded her, "It's not too early, sister, let's hurry up and prepare the small kitchen, and I have to talk to the emperor in the evening." I listen, the emperor still feels more sorry for his sister. ”

Shen Meizhuang also nodded.

After returning to Fanying Palace, An Lingrong took a nap after lunch, and suddenly woke up in the middle of sleeping: "Dill! ”

"Little master, the slave is here." Dill hurriedly lifted the curtain and walked in.

"Bring me the book of passion in my bookcase." An Lingrong hurriedly put on his clothes and stepped on his shoes and walked down.

Dill didn't know why, seeing that An Lingrong was in a hurry, he hurriedly went to get it.

An Lingrong flipped through the finger-thick passion spectrum, trying to rummage through his memory.

Although the name of the incense spectrum is hundred incense, it actually records the ingredients and production methods of thousands of incense, An Lingrong only browsed a rough idea in his previous life, and the incense in the goose pear tent is also the doorway from here, although she doesn't want to be favored by incense in this life, but she always has to guard against it, so she will occasionally look at it carefully, just now I heard Zhen Huan talk about "lost mind", she felt a little weird, and when she was quiet now, she suddenly remembered this.

"Found it." An Lingrong's finger stayed on one of the pages, only to see the words "Lost Soul Incense" written on it, the emotions in his eyes were turbulent, he looked around carefully, and finally his eyes fell on the effect, "Those who use this incense are restless and difficult to suppress, and there are many frivolous actions, different hearts and mouths, and abnormal behavior, so the name is lost soul." ”

Dill was shocked: "Little master, is this incense so powerful?" ”

"Not really, the effect of this incense is only temporary, as long as you stop using the incense, you can rest for two days." An Lingrong closed the book and slowly breathed a sigh of relief, "The hands and feet made by the Zhen official woman are estimated to have stayed in Broken Yuxuan, Bitong Academy should be fine, you take Cardamom over for a trip, explain the matter to the nobles of Guan, and take a look for my sister to see if there is any residue in the body." ”

Knowing that this soul-losing incense was not used on An Lingrong's body, Dill also breathed a sigh of relief and leaned over to receive the order.

An Lingrong lay back on the bed, but he couldn't sleep.

This life is more difficult than the previous one. In her previous life, she was stained with the light of Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, even if she was not favored by the emperor, but she also passed more than half a year peacefully, except for her daily self-entanglement, the Internal Affairs Office did not treat her lightly, and because she had no grace, she never participated in the harem disputes - at least, there was no such thing as now, and the heart of the sun was raised in her throat.

At night, the bamboo courtyard is brightly lit, and Concubine Hua's cool hall is richly decorated, and Cao Guiren and Zhen Yuyin stand under the seat.

"The palace personally went to mention it to the emperor, and the emperor promised to give you the title of Bizi, and also promoted you as a promise, and the will will arrive tomorrow, remember to thank you." Concubine Hua leaned lazily on the back of the chair, and didn't look at Zhen Yuyin, "Don't say anything about the blue characters taken from your name when you were a slave maid before, that is, if you become a concubine, you are still a slave here in this palace." If it weren't for Cao Guiren saying that you are a little useful, this palace would not bother to pay attention to you. ”

Zhen Yuyin's face was blue and white for a while, but she still bowed her head and saluted: "Concubine Xie Niangniang's grace." ”

Cao Guiren glanced at her, and then said to Concubine Hua with a smile: "Niangniang, today the Guan nobles lost their manners in front of the palace again, it can be seen that the incense is used properly, and this is still the credit of Bi's promise!" ”

Concubine Hua snorted coldly and laughed: "It's a pity, that incense is only used in Broken Yuxuan, and only fragrant flowers should be used in Bitong Academy, no spices." After a pause, he said, "I heard that she stopped burning incense in Broken Yuxuan a few days ago, don't notice anything." ”

"Rest assured, Zhen Huan will not burn incense during the hot summer period, and the concubine deliberately chose this time to do it, just to leave no traces." Zhen Yuyin whispered flatteringly, "It's the size of a fingernail, and nothing else is left, even if Zhen Huan reacts and checks again, she can't find anything." ”

Concubine Hua looked at her intently, and suddenly smiled: "Zhen Huan is still soft-hearted in the end, and she can't do anything to you, if you are someone close to the palace......" Concubine Hua snorted coldly and didn't say any more.

Zhen Yuyin didn't understand, but Cao Guiren knew.

The last one who tried to climb up by stepping on the master was Fuzi. Concubine Hua didn't have a seizure when she faced the emperor, she turned her head and found the wrong place to cook Fuzi, it was neat, and she couldn't even touch half a cent of her afterwards, where was it like Zhen Huan, and left Zhen Yuyin with a life, which was plain and blocked herself.

"Young after all!" Concubine Hua sighed and waved her hand to let the two of them retreat.

At night, it became hotter and hotter.

Jian Qiu slowly walked into the queen's dormitory and bowed: "Niangniang, the slave maid has followed your instructions to let the imperial dining room reduce the routine dishes in each palace and courtyard, and use more vegetarian dishes." ”

"Okay, the emperor wants the harem to be frugal, and the palace especially wants to set an example." The queen was looking at the Buddhist scriptures, and suddenly straightened up and admonished, "Concubine Hua and Concubine Qi have high status, and they must be the same as this palace, so that the other concubines will be convinced." ”

Jian Qiu flattered: "The mother is wise." ”

The queen sneered, and nodded to Jian Qiu: "It's not that the palace is wise, the idea of halving the routine dishes was mentioned by Shen Guiren in front of the emperor, this credit and hard work, the palace can't rob her." ”

She lowered her eyes and continued to read the Buddhist scriptures, the smile on the corner of her mouth hiding endless coldness.
