The Queen has arrived: An Lingrong does not want to fight in the palace after her rebirth

Concubine Duan is ill.

When she heard that Zhen Huan was about to leave the palace and the little princess she gave birth to needed to find a foster mother in the palace.

Concubine Duan's old illness relapsed and she had difficulty even getting up from her bed.

There were only concubines of Xupin or above in the palace who could raise children, but Concubine Shen and Concubine Jing both had their own children.

There were four concubines, and one was deposed. Concubine Qi had three princes, and Concubine Duan was suffering from many illnesses.

The little princess’ biological mother is the descendant of a criminal, so she must not be raised by the queen.

The only people who could raise the little princess were Concubine Jing and Concubine Wen.

The emperor hesitated between the two for a moment.

Concubine Jing is older and more stable, so she should be the most suitable candidate.

But when the emperor thought about the fact that An Lingrong had been favored for many years but had never received any good news, he couldn't help but wonder if she was not suitable for pregnancy. So he wanted to give the princess to her to raise so that she would have someone to rely on for the rest of her life.

An Lingrong was also worried. What if the emperor asked her to raise a little princess? Should she accept her or not?

It would certainly be good for her to accept the child, but once she raised the child she would have to take on responsibilities and concerns. She always kept the matter of leaving the palace in mind and did not want to have another bond in the palace.

But if you don’t accept, what reason should you use to refuse?

When she was worried, Concubine Jing took the initiative to find the emperor.

"Today, I, your concubine, dare to ask for grace from Your Majesty. I have served Your Majesty for many years, but I have not been blessed to bear you a son or daughter. Now that I am older, I think I will not have this blessing in this lifetime. Please allow me to raise the little princess."

The word "no blessing" reminded the emperor of the past, and he finally agreed to let Concubine Jing raise the little princess and gave her the name Zining.

Even if I don't go, why don't you send me news?

Concubine Jing chewed over these words in her heart again and again. In the end, she did not ask any questions. After thanking the emperor happily, she went to Yongshou Palace to pick up the child.

After returning from the Yangxin Palace that day, Zhen Huan never stopped crying.

She saved her father's life, but she felt it was only temporary.

She thought that by leaving the palace, she could keep her father safe, but she underestimated the emperor's anger.

When she said she wanted to practice in Ganlu Temple, the emperor threw the beads in his hand to the ground. The sound of the jade beads splashing was mixed with the emperor's rage:

"At this moment, you are still trying to coerce me. You have even planned a place to leave the palace. How can I know that this is not another way for you to retreat in order to advance? Do you really think that I don't know all your schemes in the past?"

"The Bodhisattva's nectar descended upon all, but it would not save a cunning person like you. Since you want to practice to atone for your sins, go to Anqi Monastery and practice with Master Chongjing Yuan. You cannot leave again in this lifetime without an imperial decree."

"How can a discarded concubine in the harem bear the guilt of Zhen Yuandao? I hereby decree that Zhen Yuandao be derelict in his duty and disrespectful. Zhen Yuandao and his family be exiled to Ningguta. Considering his past merits, he does not need to be a slave to the armored men. His daughter Zhen Huan is kind and filial, so I specially send her maid Huanbi to accompany her. They will leave Beijing together in three days."

"The princess is young and cannot be implicated because of the mistakes of her mother's family. I will choose a foster mother for her. You will leave the palace in three days."

"The former head eunuch of Yongshou Palace, Xiao Yunzi, was beaten to death. Your personal servant will go with you to Anqi Temple to work and serve. The rest of the servants will be assigned to the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

"..."

Whenever Zhen Huan recalled that day, her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, but she was powerless to change the situation and blamed herself so much that she could only shed tears.

When Concubine Jing arrived with Shen Meizhuang, the main hall of Yongshou Palace was in chaos.

People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs kept moving around in the main hall, clearing out the original luxurious decorations one by one.

There were also some mocking remarks:

"Mr. Zhen, the emperor wants you to practice asceticism. These worldly things cannot disturb your pure mind. They must be returned to the palace for safekeeping."

Zhen Huan turned a deaf ear to the eunuch's harsh words. She was really disheartened now. The emperor didn't care about her at all. Ningguta was thousands of miles away and extremely cold. Her parents were old and her sister was still young. How could she survive there?

There was also Huanbi, who was exiled to Ningguta by the emperor. After coming out of the Yangxin Palace, she didn't have time to say anything to Huanbi before the palace guards took Huanbi away.

And as for Xiao Yunzi, it was not until the emperor ordered him to be beaten to death that Zhen Huan realized that the emperor knew what had happened before Nian Shilan committed suicide, and he was settling the score after the event.

Those close to her were either killed or punished, and the emperor wiped out all the operations she had carried out in the palace for many years in one fell swoop.

Jinxi and Liuzhu were also implicated and had to go to Anqi Temple to work and serve.

She will never be able to take a single step out of Anqi Temple again in this life, and Jinxi and Liuzhu will have to be imprisoned there with her.

If she wasn't still worried about her parents, Zhen Huan really didn't know how to face the future.

As soon as Shen Meizhuang entered the room, she saw her listless appearance and felt an unbearable pain in her heart. She had begged Concubine Jing to be able to see Zhen Huan before she left the palace today. This was probably the last time they would see each other in this life.

No one is allowed to leave Anqi Temple without an imperial edict, and the same applies to Shen Meizhuang, who is not allowed to enter without an imperial edict.

Thinking of this, tears welled up in Shen Meizhuang's eyes:

"Huan'er, there's not much I can do. I'll ask my family to prepare some supplies for Uncle Zhen and his family so that they can survive their first cold winter in Ningguta. Don't worry, I'll do my best to ask my family to take care of Uncle Zhen and his family in the future."

This is what Zhen Huan needs most right now. She hugged Shen Meizhuang and tears welled up in her eyes again:

"Sister Mei, I'm glad to have you."

The two of them hugged each other and cried and didn't say anything more. When Concubine Jing mentioned Princess Zining, Zhen Huan felt as if her heart was hollowed out. This person in the palace who had the deepest bond with her would no longer have anything to do with her after this moment.

In this life, she only hopes that the child will be free from disasters and diseases and live a peaceful and happy life. As for her, the biological mother, she will not mention her anymore in the future.

Concubine Qi no longer wanted to watch what was happening in Yongshou Palace. She was currently taking credit for herself in Jingren Palace.

"Empress, you don't know how ugly Zhen Huan looked when she was so angry that she started to curse at me."

At this time, the Queen looked at Concubine Qi as if she were a clown. Such a shallow and arrogant person could only play a role in things like a shrew scolding in the street. However, although this trick was disgusting, it was still effective. At least it disturbed Zhen Huan's mind and made her lose her vigilance, which enabled her to win this round so beautifully.

When Concubine Qi was beaming with joy, the Queen reminded her appropriately: "After Zhen Huan left the palace, there are not many people in the palace who can win the Emperor's favor. You must make good preparations."

At this time, Concubine Qi was very proud: "Don't worry, your majesty, I have prepared it."

The Queen smiled and poured cold water on her: "Wenpin has been favored for a long time because she knows a lot, Xia Changzai wins because she is bold and reckless, daring to brandish a gun in front of the emperor, what can you do?"

In a word, it chills my heart.

Concubine Qi really couldn't answer this question and could only humbly ask the Queen for advice.

Three days passed in a flash, and today was the day when the Zhen family left Beijing for Ningguta.

It was also the day when Zhen Huan left the palace and went to Anqi Temple.

A gray felt donkey cart took Zhen Huan and the other two away from the Forbidden City.

The harem ushered in new changes.
