If An Lingrong was reborn before the draft

Chapter 262: Concubine Xian vs. Concubine Hua

Because the child was not born yet, Lingrong hadn't gone out for a walk for a long time. Today, she specially took Fuguier out for a walk.

She asked the palace maids to make a hydrangea for Fuguier. Several small bells were sewn on the hydrangea. When the hydrangea was thrown out, the bells would jingle. Fuguier would chase the hydrangea, bring it back and deliver it to Lingrong's feet.

I don't know how Xiao Xizi was taught. Among so many people in Yongshou Palace, Fuguier recognizes Lingrong as his master and then the emperor. Xiao Xizi has to coax him, but others won't listen to him even if they coax him.

When they reached a relatively open area in the Imperial Garden, Lingrong played with Fuguier by throwing a ball. Lingrong's biggest activity was walking out of Yongshou Palace. Now when she was tired of standing, she would go to the pavilion to rest. Zhang Qilin and the eunuchs surrounded the pavilion with thick curtains, leaving a door for walking and convenient ventilation. Two charcoal stoves were placed in the corner to make the pavilion warm. In order to avoid waste, Lingrong had someone put a teapot, chestnuts and sweet potatoes on the charcoal stove. When she was tired, she would come in to drink tea and eat roasted sweet potatoes and roasted chestnuts.

"Oh, Concubine Xian is really good at having fun. This pavilion is so exquisite!"

A voice was heard from far away. Ju Qing pulled Ling Rong who was playing with Fu Gui Er and bowed, saying, "May Concubine Hua be well and safe."

Hearing the voice, Lingrong looked up and saw that it was Concubine Hua who must be passing by. "Greetings, Concubine Hua!" Lingrong bowed slightly and stood up to invite Concubine Hua, saying, "I can't say it's exquisite, but there are two stoves in this pavilion, which is very warm. If you don't mind, please come in and sit down, drink some tea and rest for a while."

"Two stoves, that's really warm," said Concubine Hua with a sneer, "Xianpin, you use the best red charcoal, and having one more stove here is just an extra expense."

Listening to Concubine Hua's words, Ling Rong knew that she was looking for trouble, but she didn't realize what she was trying to say. "Your Majesty, the red charcoal here was transferred from the Yangxin Palace by the Emperor."

Lingrong meant that the emperor doesn't care about you meddling in other people's business, and besides, the bill is paid from the emperor's Yangxin Palace, not the harem.

"Do you admit your guilt, Concubine Xian?" Concubine Hua suddenly attacked.

"Uh", Ling Rong was speechless.

"The Emperor gave me the power to assist in the management of the six palaces in order to deal with those concubines who are arrogant and look down on others because of their favor. Everything in this palace is governed by rules and laws. How much red radish charcoal does your Yongshou Palace produce in a month? How much red radish charcoal have you used up now? Extravagance and waste are taboos in the palace, but you broke the law knowingly."

When Lingrong heard her words, she rolled her eyes in her heart. When it comes to extravagance and waste, who in the palace can compare to Concubine Hua? She was given an advantage just because she used this little bit of red charcoal.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. These red charcoals were allocated by the Emperor. Yongshou Palace did not receive any extra money for the harem's expenses." Lingrong explained with a chuckle.

"Kneel down! How dare you contradict me! Where did you learn any rules?" Concubine Hua shouted. She actually had no intention of doing anything to Concubine Xian, she just wanted to tickle her because she didn't like her.

"Your Highness," Ling Rong was not happy to hear Concubine Hua asking her to kneel down. She still remembered that in her previous life, Concubine Hua ordered Zhen Huan to kneel down and a child fell. Although her arm was also involved, it did not mean that she was willing to endure it. "I have said that the red charcoal in Yongshou Palace was allocated by the emperor. If your Highness has any questions, you can ask the emperor or the queen. I am not feeling well, so I will not accompany your Highness to talk. Your Highness, please do as you please."

After saying this, Lingrong turned around and walked towards Yongshou Palace. She was about to give birth, so she naturally would not use her body to accommodate Concubine Hua's temper.

"You!!!" Concubine Hua gnashed her teeth in anger at Concubine Xian who turned and left. "Zhou Ninghai, go and tell me..."

"Your Majesty," Song Zhi beside her stopped the furious Concubine Hua in time, "Concubine Xian is about to give birth. If something happens to her, the heir will be in trouble. If something happens to the heir, we can't afford it."
