After leaving the embroidery building, An Lingrong hurried to Yuelai Inn. Looking at the inn in front of her, she thought of how the owner of this inn in her previous life thought she was a rare commodity and would not let her leave because she did not give him a tip.

Alas, I had been planning to change inn when I was reborn, but this inn is so cheap and I really don’t have much money now. Although I sold embroidery and bracelets, I still have to pay rewards later, and each of them is a considerable expense.

Just as she was thinking about it, Aunt Xiao happened to rush over from the east. Seeing Aunt Xiao's happy expression, Ling Rong knew that the bracelet must have been pawned for a good price.

Because she had more silver this time than in her previous life, An Lingrong added two more taels of silver and asked for two upper rooms. The shopkeeper took the money and asked the waiter to take An Lingrong upstairs with a smile on his face.

Arriving at the front of the room, An Lingrong took out two taels of silver and handed it to the waiter, saying, "I'm here in the capital to participate in the selection. I'm unfamiliar with the place. I wonder if there's any fast carriage available."

The waiter took the money and said to An Lingrong with a smile on his face: "Thank you, Miss. Thank you, Miss. There is a Jifeng Carriage Shop fifty yards west from the inn. Miss, just say that it was introduced by Yuelai Inn and they will arrange it for you."

An Lingrong asked the waiter for the four treasures of the study. After receiving the tip, the waiter came back with the things An Lingrong wanted. Then he said, "Then Miss, have a good rest. I won't disturb you anymore."

An Lingrong nodded. After the waiter left, An Lingrong turned to Aunt Xiao and said, "Aunt, you've worked hard all the way here. Go and have a rest first. Rong'er can do it on her own."

Aunt Xiao nodded, took out a purse and handed it to An Lingrong, saying, "This is the money from the pawning of the bracelets. Since they were pawned, I raised the price a bit, and the total is eighty taels."

"Okay, aunt, I got it. You go and rest first." Then, after An Lingrong sent her aunt to the room, she turned around, closed the door, picked up a pen and paper, and began to plan what to do next.

One embroidery piece costs eighty taels, and three cost two hundred and forty taels in total, plus the eighty taels for the pair of gilded bracelets. Since I didn't make clothes in this life, I had fifteen taels left. After deducting the money for the room, the money for the tip to the waiter, and the money for the carriage that would be needed later, there were a total of three hundred and thirty taels left.

An Lingrong thought about it, then picked up the pen and wrote the word "maid". She still had to have a maid as a dowry. The indenture was in her hands, which was much safer than the one arranged for her by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Moreover, since she already had a maid as a dowry, Zhen Huan would probably not give Juqing to her again. Although she knew that Juqing was loyal, she was given to her by someone else after all, so she would still not feel safe using her.

But what should this maid do?

An Lingrong slowly wrote the word "doctor". In the palace, it would be best to have a maid who knows medicine, but this maid had almost no medical skills. Even if she had some, it would cost a lot of money.

Secondly, she had to know how to dress up, and at the very least, she had to know how to cook. No maids were needed, and even if she bought a maid who knew how to embroider, her skills wouldn't necessarily be better than hers.

An Lingrong circled the word "maid" and thought to herself that she should go to the human market with Aunt Xiao tomorrow to try her luck.

Then he began to plan the situation during the selection: he must meet Zhen Huan, and her mentor aunt Fang Ruo is close to the emperor. Moreover, living in Zhen's mansion can save some money, and he can also find out about Huanbi's situation.

An Lingrong always felt that Zhen Huan treated Huanbi differently from Liuzhu. They grew up together, but sometimes Huanbi would actually sit on the couch with Zhen Huan, which didn't look like a maid at all.

As for Xia Dongchun, An Lingrong thought of the idiot who was punished by Concubine Hua with a slash of red soon after entering the palace. He was a little stupid, but he had a good family background, so it would be best if he could be used by her.

Another thing is that during the selection, the queen in the previous life arranged for someone to tune her voice. Now she can imitate Queen Chunyuan to 90% of the same level. The remaining 1% is because the distance between them was relatively far during the palace selection, so it sounds 100% similar.

An Lingrong thought about how she was chosen by the Empress Dowager in her previous life. The first reason was because of her good manners. When she was not selected, she still remembered to thank the Emperor and the Empress Dowager. The second reason was that the Emperor had looked at several batches and was not interested in any of them. So the Han Army Flag had to have a start.

An Lingrong thought about it, and recalled that when they were chatting in their previous life, Shen Meizhuang said that when she was selected for the palace, she had only read "Rules for Women" and "Instructions for Women". It seems that the Empress Dowager values ​​women's virtue even if they are not talented.

In this way, the clothes, the butterfly and the voice are enough to win over Yinzhen, and it won't be difficult for the empress dowager at that time.

An Lingrong looked at the paper filled with writing, glanced at it for a few seconds, then threw it into the brazier and burned it to ashes.
