Two days before going to Qionghua Island, Liuzhu, who was by Zhen Huan's side, came to the Yanx Palace and said that Zhen Huan wanted to talk to An Lingrong.

An Lingrong calculated the time and thought that Zhen Huan would almost discover the secret of Huan Yi Xiang, but she did not want to get involved in this mess. However, the palace gates were locked and Wen Shichu was not on duty. Alas, it was so annoying.

After arriving, An Lingrong borrowed Zhen Huan's armor like she did in her previous life. Although An Lingrong was a concubine, she did not wear armor to maintain her nails because she felt that it would be troublesome to mix perfume and it would be inconvenient to play the moon guitar.

"It contains amaranth, alfalfa, sweet mulberry, sandalwood, clove, incense, and ambergris." An Lingrong should have casually mentioned musk, but she was stunned. She smelled it carefully again and found that the fragrance was really different from that in her previous life.

Zhen Huan asked nervously: "What's wrong?"

"There is also musk and tonka bean. This musk should be the musk from the stables, and it is the main musk. It is only found in the Great Snow Mountain in the northwest. It is extremely precious and ten times stronger than ordinary musk. And this tonka bean can also make women infertile."

An Lingrong looked at Zhen Huan in disbelief and asked anxiously, just like in her previous life: "Sister, what on earth is this? Where did you come from?"

"This is the Huan Yi Xiang that is exclusively used in the Yikun Palace. Concubine Nian has been favored by the emperor for many years, but has been infertile. This is the real secret." Zhen Huan's voice already had a tearful tone.

"No wonder the Emperor did not severely punish Concubine Nian. No wonder my sister had a miscarriage after kneeling for half an hour. It must have been because of the Emperor's fragrance of Huan Yi."

"Your Majesty, you wanted to guard against her, but you also hurt our child."

"Sister, women cannot use musk. If you use it for a long time, you will not get pregnant. Even if you get pregnant, it will most likely be a miscarriage or stillbirth. Linglingxiang also has the effect of dispelling wind and activating blood circulation, which can also cause infertility and miscarriage. I usually stay away from these two kinds of fragrance and dare not stick to them at all."

"With such a strong incense, didn't anyone notice it?"

"Although the medicinal properties of Dangmenzi and Linglingxiang are strong, their fragrance is not very strong. In addition, the Huanyixiang is blended very well with other spices. If it is not for an expert to smell and test carefully, it will definitely not be detected when it is burned. How did my sister discover this Huanyixiang?"

"The doctor said that I seemed to have used musk. But I haven't used any spices since I became pregnant. So it's strange."

Zhen Huan lamented that the fire at the city gate affected innocent people. An Lingrong and Liu Zhu hurried to comfort Zhen Huan. After Zhen Huan felt better, An Lingrong said that Zhen Huan should not have been so stubborn and should have listened to her pretending to faint.

After hearing this, Zhen Huan said that it was getting late and she was not feeling well so she would not send An Lingrong off.

An Lingrong came out of Shuiyuxuan, wondering why the Huanyixiang in this life was different, but she only thought about it for a moment. After all, An Lingrong knew that such things should not be explored too much.

On the day of the banquet on Qionghua Island, the Eighth Prince was not yet a month old and Princess Jingyue was weak, so the Queen asked Concubine Tian and Noble Lady Zhen to have a good rest and they didn't need to go.

Xia Dongchun originally wanted to accompany Concubine Tian, ​​but Concubine Tian said it was okay and told Xia Dongchun to go without worry. She also talked about how beautiful Qionghua Island was. Xia Dongchun had no choice but to leave, looking back every few steps.

When they arrived at Qionghua Island, since Concubine Tian had never had a miscarriage in this life, the Emperor could not use Concubine Tian to help Zhen Huan relieve her worries.

Furthermore, among the five people in the palace, including An Lingrong, only Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, who was closest to Zhen Huan, had miscarriages. The emperor even wondered if Concubine Zhen had not reconciled with Zhen Huan, she would not have had a premature birth.

The emperor was feeling extremely irritated. He had no interest in the singing and dancing in front of him and planned to leave early.

But the queen had already made plans, how could she let the emperor go: "This singer has been training for a long time, and she only hopes to entertain the emperor."

Since the Queen said so, the Emperor had no choice but to say, "Okay." The Emperor agreed to let the Queen quickly order Jianqiu to begin.

An Lingrong also sat up straight. When she knew that the Queen was preparing this actor, she had already sent someone to find her first.

The actress was of humble origin and had never seen the world. An Lingrong gave her many treasures and settled her family. She then agreed to be An Lingrong's spy beside the Queen.

The Ulanara family had fallen into decline, and the queen could not afford to spend much money. In addition, she had spent too much money to bribe Zhang Mi and now Doctor Zhang. Later on, she would have to find a musician for this actor.

An Lingrong has the support of Nianpin and is usually frugal, so she has saved a lot so far. Not only does the Queen give less than half of what An Lingrong gives, but she also keeps talking about how she is the Empress and how good it will be to follow the Queen.

The actor had seen everything, so he didn't listen to these empty words. An old, ugly, childless and boring queen, and a young, beautiful, wealthy and gentle concubine with three children. Even a fool would know how to choose.

Moreover, since entering the palace, Concubine Rou has risen from a maid to a concubine in less than two years. One can imagine her ability.

"The lotus leaf skirt is cut in the same color, the hibiscus blossoms on both sides of the face, she jumps into the pond and is invisible, only when she hears the song does she realize someone is coming..."

Shen Meizhuang commented: "This song is soft and graceful, and it is very touching."

"The clothes match well, the white lotus and green dress, it's quite good." The emperor nodded and said.

Concubine Qi rolled her eyes: "Humph, you're still covering your face, trying to be mysterious."

An Lingrong looked at the masked singer and thought of how worried little Mencius must have been when he saw that she had used so much money to bribe the actor. She felt that if the Queen did not look for her, all her money would be wasted.

An Lingrong naturally would not let this money go to waste. When she saw the actor and heard her voice, she knew that the Queen would definitely choose her.

"This girl's singing skills are outstanding, even better than that of Lady Miaoyin back then." Concubine Cao also said.

In fact, everyone could hear that the singing voice was somewhat similar to An Lingrong's, but they didn't want to say it out loud. It was hard to say that a concubine looked like a singing girl.

But Shen Meizhuang turned around and said to Zhen Huan: "Hey, who do you think this singing voice resembles?"

"It is vaguely similar to Lingrong, but not as clear and gentle as Lingrong."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Jing quickly looked at An Lingrong and said, "She is just a singing girl, a lowly person, how can she be compared with my sister?"

An Lingrong smiled and nodded to Concubine Jing and Zhen Huan. Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang were relieved to see that An Lingrong was not angry.
