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

On the path behind Fanying Pavilion.

The Fourth Prince thanked An Lingrong respectfully:

"Thank you, Madam An, for your concern. I thought that Madam An would leave for the palace tomorrow, and I don't know when we will see each other again, so I specially asked Sister Rendong to bring me here to thank Madam An."

They have to return to the palace early tomorrow morning, and all the palaces are busy packing up the gifts. While everyone is busy, An Lingrong asks Rendong to send something to the Fourth Prince. Unexpectedly, he comes with Rendong to express his gratitude.

An Lingrong hurriedly helped him up and spoke gently, "My brother and I met by chance. I sent you a small token of my gratitude before we parted, but you are so polite to me."

The Fourth Prince's eyes were slightly red and his voice was slightly choked with sobs: "No one in the palace dared to approach me, but Empress An sent me winter clothes, medicinal materials and money for emergency use without considering the gains and losses. I will always remember Empress An's kindness in my heart."

Seeing that he was speaking too seriously, An Lingrong patted his shoulder gently, then pretended to be angry and said, "Brother, you have made great progress in your studies. You have started to speak in a sophisticated way, which makes people feel alienated."

When the Fourth Prince heard her say this, he immediately became anxious and quickly explained: "No, I was just too happy. No one has ever been so nice to me before. I was so excited that I did this."

Seeing that he was anxious, An Lingrong chuckled, "Brother, this is the right way. You don't have to be so mature in everything. Otherwise, I won't dare to bring you anything in the future."

When the Fourth Prince heard the word "later", his eyes lit up instantly, and he asked excitedly, "Does Empress An mean that you will continue to take care of me in the future?"

An Lingrong smiled and nodded at him: "Brother, you are intelligent and motivated, and I have a destiny with you. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me."

Isn't it fate?

In her previous life, she first met the Fourth Prince when she had just arrived at the Old Summer Palace. Zhen Huan accompanied her to the Qinzheng Hall to pay respects to the Emperor. She saw him kneeling outside the Qinzheng Hall under the scorching sun and begging to see the Emperor. She felt sympathy for him at the time. Both she and he were children who lacked fatherly love, but she had neither the energy nor the courage to do anything for him. So the favored Zhen Huan asked for a bowl of lily and lotus seed soup for him to cool him down, and thus they formed a bond.

In her previous life, the emperor's body was almost drained by her before her death. It was estimated that he did not have many years to live. After his death, only those few people could become emperor.

No matter who ascends the throne in the end, the fate of the concubines of the previous dynasty will be the same. They will continue to be trapped in this square palace until they die of old age.

But she was finally blessed by God and given a new life, so naturally she didn't want to live this cage-like life again.

She wanted to see a wider world, but the world today was too harsh for women. It was already difficult to survive, let alone walk in the world as a woman. The only way was to seek the emperor's favor and have a legitimate identity to withstand the prejudice of the world.

To this end, she made two preparations in this life. She would become a useful person to the emperor and see if she could wait for the right time to ask for his grace. If not, she would change another emperor.

As long as she has the merit of following the dragon, she can use this merit to exchange for what she wants.

Among the princes, the third prince is honest and almost stupid, and the queen is eyeing him as her own. The fourth prince's mother died early and no one loves him. She has met the fifth prince several times at palace banquets, and he is too lively and does not look like someone who can do anything. The sixth prince will have his mother to plan for him.

Therefore, the only person she could win over was the Fourth Prince. As soon as she entered Yuanming Garden, she asked Rendong to find out the Fourth Prince's residence. However, she never had the chance to meet him. Unexpectedly, due to the death of her father, when she went out to relax, she ran into the Fourth Prince who was seeking attention everywhere. Naturally, she would not miss such an opportunity, so she told the Fourth Prince to study with peace of mind, so that it would be difficult for him and Zhen Huan to meet again.

The Fourth Prince had no idea what An Lingrong was thinking. When she promised him that he could come to her if he had any troubles in the future, he was truly grateful and kept thanking her and agreeing.

After An Lingrong talked to him for a long time, the Fourth Prince reluctantly said goodbye.

When Ren Dong saw An Lingrong staring at the Fourth Prince's departing figure, she spoke up, "My Lady, I see that you really like children. Now that Noble Lady Fucha is pregnant, she is being cared for by the imperial physician. You should plan for yourself as soon as possible."

An Lingrong smiled softly after hearing this: "Rendong, having children depends on fate, there is no need to rush. They will come naturally when the time comes." But she was very determined in her heart that she would not have children in this life. She did not want them, whether boys or girls, to become victims of the imperial power. But she could not say this to anyone, otherwise it would be disrespectful. When she first gained favor, she was still thinking about how to avoid pregnancy without leaving any trace. Unexpectedly, the Queen helped her solve this problem. She would thank her very much someday.

The majestic Forbidden City is so solemn that it makes people feel depressed compared to the imperial palace.

In the Suiyu Pavilion, Jinxi looked at Zhen Huan, who was looking very sad, and went up to her to persuade her: "My lady, the emperor has already gone to bed in the Yikun Palace, you should also go to bed early."

Although Zhen Huan was lying on the bed, she was not sleepy at all. She stared at the bed curtains sadly and said with a sad heart:

"Jinxi, the emperor and I lived like husband and wife in the temporary palace, why do I feel alienated after returning to the palace? When I think of the way Concubine Hua enjoys herself under the emperor, my heart aches. It turns out that wishing to have a person's heart and stay together until old age is just my wishful thinking."

Seeing that she was in love and unable to control herself, Jinxi was afraid that she would hurt herself in the future, so she could only advise her cruelly:

"My lady, what you are asking for is a luxury. The country is too heavy a burden for an emperor to bear, so there is little love in his life. Even if there is love, it is mixed with layers of calculations. Besides, my lady has already said that all you need is the emperor's sincerity. Why are you so obsessed with it today?"

Obsession? Zhen Huan turned her head and glanced at Jin Xi, and continued to lament:

"Jinxi, I understand what you said. The emperor treats me so well that it is hard for me to stick to my original intention. I know how difficult it is for the emperor, and I can understand why the emperor has to spend the night in Yikun Palace for many consecutive days, but it is still very difficult for me."

Jin Xi continued to persuade her earnestly, "My lady, because of this, you must remember that the emperor is always the master of the world. He cannot stay for someone else. The emperor has treated you very well. You should not ask for more. Only in this way will the emperor remember your kindness for a long time and naturally favor you for a long time."

Zhen Huan understood what Jing Xi said. She nodded disappointedly, closed her eyes and stopped talking, but she was still upset.

After a few days, as if to confirm what Jinxi said, although the emperor did not come to Suiyuxuan, he sent the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send a pair of precious Shu brocade jade shoes to Zhen Huan.
