An Lingrong's Rebirth: The Lock of Qingqiu

Guiren Wan smiled softly and said, "Who among the concubines in the harem dares not to love the emperor? Doesn't Sister An love the emperor?"

This question made An Lingrong choke. It didn't really matter whether he loved her or not. Living alone was the most important thing.

But if you want to live well, you have to love the emperor!

Isn't this contradictory?

An Lingrong said softly: "What my sister is saying is that under the emperor's nose, anyone who dares to be different from what he is and is seeking death!"

Wan Guiren shook his head and said: "Let's embroider well! In order for our glory and wealth to last forever, we must love the emperor well."

An Lingrong nodded and said: "In order to live, you have to love the emperor. Look, sister, I have already embroidered my coat."

From early morning to dusk, time is passed away in embroidery.

The style made by Wan Guiren is relatively simple, abandoning the bright yellow and white solid color base, crossing the beveled edges without buttons, without any dragon pattern, widening the cuffs and hem, and her pair of mandarin ducks are embroidered on the purple belt On, she did it for five days.

This suit doesn't look special at all, just like what ordinary people wear.

But An Lingrong made something different, with a butterfly-style placket in the middle, a delicate purple plum blossom ribbon to fix the waist, and a delicate little lily embroidered in the middle of the chest. This dress is the only one An Lingrong makes. for one day.

An Lingrong carefully looked at the clothes made by the two people and said: "Everyone in the palace said that the emperor loves his sister the most. This time, I want to compete with my sister. I wonder which one the emperor will like?"

Zhen Huan chuckled and said: "My sister's embroidery skills are better than mine, so the emperor will keep my sister's pajamas."

On this day, the weather was very good, and the emperor happened to have no pressing matters at court, so he came to visit Wan Gui. When An Lingrong heard the news, he took the pajamas and went to see Wan Gui.

The emperor was sipping steaming fragrant tea. When he heard that An Lingrong and Wan Guiren made him two sets of pajamas at the same time and asked him to be the judge, he immediately became interested.

Since it is a competition, there must be some luck.

The emperor said leisurely: "I wonder what kind of bonus you two nobles would like? After all, it is just a pair of pajamas, and your privacy cannot be exposed in a big way."

Wan Guiren said: "Your Majesty, I suggest that if the Emperor likes this set of pajamas that I made, then please ask the Emperor to walk around the Old Summer Palace in his pajamas."

The emperor chuckled and said: "It's ridiculous, I won't allow it."

The emperor pretended to have a headache. An Lingrong walked up to him and massaged his forehead, temples, and neck gently. He gently beat and kneaded his shoulders. These places could easily become stiff. He mainly sat down with him at the desk. Depends on working hours.

The emperor's eyes were dark and bright, and his eyes flickered. He took Wan Guiren's pajamas and turned them over carefully. After a while, he nodded and praised: "Wan Guiren is thoughtful, and the simple embroidery is very pleasing to me."

Wan Guiren raised his eyebrows at An Lingrong proudly and said, "Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty."

Next, he unfolded An Lingrong's embroidered pajamas. His knuckled fingers touched the purple belt and rubbed it gently. His eyes softened little by little. When he raised his eyes again, almost all the clothes were gone. Edge.

The emperor's personality was originally a bit cold, and he was always cold in high positions, so he was aloof most of the time.

But now, the smile on his face gradually increased, especially in front of An Lingrong and Wan Guiren.

The emperor held the pajamas made by An Lingrong in his hands and played with them for a long time. His voice was slightly hoarse and he said, "An Gui has a clever mind. The set you made is just what I wanted."

An Lingrong stopped what he was doing and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. As long as Your Majesty likes it."

Guiren Wan said: "Your Majesty, what if I must ask the Emperor to choose the winning one? I guess it must be the one made by Sister An. Her embroidery skills are much better than my concubine's."

The emperor said calmly: "We are all interested. I like both of them. We are equally divided, no matter who wins or loses. This is the best result. You are both my concubines, and you are also a rare pair who support each other. I hope that you treat each other sincerely. I hope that in addition to me, you also have yourselves in your hearts. Just because I am the one in the eyes of the world. My eyes cannot accommodate just one person. If I do not favor one or favor others, I am the best. given."

Unexpectedly, a piece of pajamas aroused the emperor's thoughts.

The emperor said to Wan Guiren: "Wan Guiren, your brother is guarding the southwest side. He works tirelessly for the country and the people. He is brave and never flinches. When the war is successful, I will make you my concubine Wan and build a new palace for you. You live.”

Wan Guiren said quickly: "Your Majesty, it is my duty to go into battle and kill the enemy. The Suiyuxuan where I live now is already a good residence. Your Majesty does not need to spend any more money to build a new palace. If one day I have one, The child also just wants to spend his life in peace with the emperor and our child."

Seeing the emperor and Wan Guiren flirting with each other in front of him, An Lingrong said: "Your Majesty, if I have anything else to do, I will go back to Bitong Academy first. I will leave."

The emperor spoke faster and said: "Mr. An Gui, please stay here for now. I have something to discuss with you. Eunuch Su, please send Mr. Wan Gui back first."

An Lingrong was stunned again. The emperor kept her here again and asked Wan Guiren to leave first. What was going on?

Wan Guiren followed Eunuch Su's footsteps and walked further and further away.

The emperor gently picked up the set of pajamas made by An Lingrong and stared at it thoughtfully for a while. After a while, he raised his head and looked at An Lingrong and said, "Mr. An, why are you giving me this set of pajamas?" Is there a plum blossom embroidered on it? And a lily? I'm not a woman? You don't embroider mandarin ducks or dragons. Come and tell me, what do you want to express?"

An Lingrong smiled slightly and said: "Back to the emperor, the reason why I embroidered a plum blossom is that plum blossoms are cold-resistant, unyielding and proud, just like the emperor. Lily symbolizes tranquility and peace, like the hope of this world, and also symbolizes Purity and nobility, beauty and kindness.”

The emperor said jokingly in his eyes: "Don't you want to stay and fly with me?"

An Lingrong quickly knelt down and lowered his head and said: "I don't dare to have such wishful thinking. The emperor is the emperor of the world, not the emperor of me alone."

The emperor sighed deeply and said: "There are so many people in the world who admire and love me, but how many people in the world know that I am willing to be the emperor of only one person, but this her, I will never I can’t see him anymore either.”

An Lingrong didn't dare to say anything or answer the question. The woman the emperor was talking about was Chun Yuan.

As the days passed, An Lingrong originally thought that the emperor would never mention these secret things in front of her.

But he mentioned it today because the two patterns on his pajamas woke him up.

I must be the one who touches the wood head-on!

Angui people, can we be allies? ---This is what the emperor said many days ago, and it is quite scary to think about it now.

In this harem, the emperor was the first one to notice the difference in her, and the first person to try to win over her was also the emperor.

Just because she can make incense and medicine, she once secretly cured Concubine Duan's leg disease, and she secretly protected the fetus in Hui Guiren's belly, so that the emperor finally had a normal and healthy elder brother. Who will be his successor?

Is it because of this that the emperor favors her?
