If An Lingrong was reborn before the draft

Chapter 84 Serving the Queen Mother Breakfast

Two imperial decrees came out of the imperial study in one day. First, Cui Jinxi reported Yu's evil deeds to the empress and the emperor, and the emperor abolished Yu's position and moved her to the cold palace. Later, Zhen Huan stepped in to expel Yu's impersonation in Yimei Garden, and she was executed for deceiving the emperor.

When Lingrong heard that Yu Shi was entangled and refused to die, she went to the cold palace to show her loyalty to Zhen Huan and gave Su Peisheng an idea. However, she only got Zhen Huan and Mei Zhuang's words, "How could I be so cruel?" I went to the cold palace to order Yu Shi to be executed, which was cruel, so why didn't you be a good person and not expose her for deceiving the emperor? At first, it was thought that this incident made Lingrong heartbroken and she was abducted to the Queen's camp. Although she does not plan to be an enemy of Zhen Huan now, she does not want to do anything about this matter. After all, she will still bear a grudge.

Alas, Lingrong had a lot of thoughts. In this life, when Zhen Huan and Mei Zhuang were in Sui Yu Xuan and worried about Yu Shi's refusal to die, Lingrong had already gone to the Queen Mother. After she went to the Queen Mother last time, the Queen Mother allowed her to go to Shoukang Palace to pay respects. Originally, she was not allowed to bother the Queen Mother at will, but the Queen Mother liked her and allowed her this right. After paying respects to the Queen, she went directly to the Queen Mother.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Jing is here," Aunt Zhuxi came in from outside and reported to the empress dowager.

"Lady Jing? She came early, so let her in." The Queen Mother was a little surprised. She had also heard about Yu's murder, and now she had also heard that Yu refused to die. Could it be that she came...

"The Queen is pretending to be sick and Concubine Hua is staying at home. Could it be that she is here to ask Your Majesty to deal with Yu?" Aunt Zhuxi asked the same question as the Queen Mother.

"Probably not. If she is so stupid, we won't have to bother with her in the future." The Queen Mother had no interest in her son's harem. She just wanted to choose someone who was similar enough to balance Hua Fei. The one she was most optimistic about among the newcomers was the one who led the Shen family in Jeju, but she was obviously inferior to Hua Fei; Zhen was too much like Chun Yuan and now she was the most favored in the harem. She was afraid that Zhen would be the next Hua Fei; even An was still favored and well-behaved.

"Your concubine pays her respects to the Empress Dowager. May the Empress Dowager be blessed with good health." Lingrong bowed and greeted the Empress Dowager as she entered the room. The Empress Dowager was having breakfast, which was thick millet porridge. The rice soup had been boiled into rice oil, which was golden and thick, and felt like jelly. It looked appetizing.

"Get up! You arrive at the right time. You haven't had breakfast yet. Let's have some millet porridge together to nourish our stomachs," said the Queen Mother.

Although the Queen Mother asked her to have breakfast with her, she couldn't be so blind as to sit down with her. She walked to the Queen Mother and replaced the maid who served her breakfast. She smiled and said, "Your Highness, I will serve you breakfast. I haven't had the honor of serving you before."

After Ling Rong served the Queen Mother breakfast, she sat on a small stool and chatted with her. Ling Rong listened to her tell stories and interesting things from her youth.

When the Queen Mother was young, she was favored but not extremely favored. She also had sisters who could get along well with her, such as the Thirteenth Master's mother, Concubine Zhang Jia, and so on. She was able to stand out in the harem of the previous emperor because she gave birth to three sons and three daughters and established a foothold in the harem. Ling Rong knew that the Queen Mother talked to her so much because she wanted her to have a child as soon as possible so that she could gain a foothold in the harem. After all, the harem struggles were nothing compared to the royal heirs. The emperor now had few children in the harem, only the Third Prince, the Fourth Prince, and the Fifth Prince. If she could give birth to a child for the emperor now, she would definitely be a thorn in the eyes of the six palaces. Of course, Ling Rong knew that she should have a child. Only with a child could she have someone to rely on. Otherwise, she could only eat and wait for death in the side hall of Shoukang Palace in the future.
