An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red
Chapter 123 Guess
Ling Rong naturally had no idea about the love-hate relationship between Shen Meiyu and Wen Shichu. She was now busy embroidering bellybands and small clothes for the child.
Occasionally, when Aunt Fangjing forbade her to do needlework, she would wander around the courtyard of Chengqian Palace and no longer go out to visit other people.
Sometimes Concubine Jing would still come over to sit with her, but she never mentioned using the prescription to help her conceive again.
After all, the imperial physician she is currently using is Wen Shichu. Whether she trusts Shen Meizhuang or Zhen Huan, she must trust them more than Ling Rong.
However, Concubine Jing had no intention of pleading for Zhen Huan, so Lingrong did not intervene too much. She only occasionally advised Concubine Jing to be careful with Concubine Hua, so as not to lose the power in the palace.
After all, Concubine Hua hated favored concubines the most. Although Zhen Huan had fallen, Shen Meizhuang did not have that.
She would only think that Shen Meizhuang was accumulating strength and patiently waiting for the opportunity to seduce the emperor and regain his favor.
Concubine Jing also understood Lingrong's worries, and she comforted Lingrong not to worry. She now had only one goal, and although she would owe them favors, she would not help them harm others.
"Sister, no matter what, I will not harm you."
Lingrong would occasionally recall what Concubine Jing said that day. She no longer remembered how she responded, but she still felt a little worried when she thought about it now.
Concubine Jing cares the most about offspring. In her previous life, because Zhen Huan did not take Longyue back when she returned to the palace, she followed Zhen Huan wholeheartedly.
If Shen Meizhuang successfully helped her give birth to a royal heir, I'm afraid Concubine Jing would also share the same hatred for the enemy as Shen Meizhuang did in her previous life.
But the prescription was really different. Lingrong had already tried to persuade her, and she couldn't predict the future, so she could only let Concubine Jing go her own way.
I hope she won't be like me in my previous life, struggling to keep a baby that can't even be born.
A few days passed peacefully like this, but Zhaoshui, who went to get the medicine, brought back a very shocking piece of news, saying that Fu Changzai had become a disciple of Concubine Hua.
He has been attending lectures in Yikun Palace these past few days, and often leaves late at night.
Even when the Empress sent Jianqiu to visit Concubine Fu, she was turned away and just said that she was fine and the Empress didn't need to worry.
Fu Chang's behavior was somewhat confusing. She was originally a servant in the Queen's palace. How could Concubine Hua trust her so easily?
You know, in her previous life, Fu Zi went to Concubine Hua's palace, but was pushed into a well and drowned.
Could it be that the Queen had made an obvious move for Concubine Hua, making her think that she could get hold of the Queen's handle through Fuzi, and also find a way to incite Fuzi to rebel and harm the Queen?
Of course, if Lingrong were to guess, it would be that the Queen did not want Fuzi to give birth to an heir smoothly.
So he thought of a way and planned to use Huan Yixiang in Concubine Hua's palace or Concubine Hua to abort the child.
He could clear himself of the charges and put the blame on Concubine Hua.
Now Fu Changzai is more like Empress Chunyuan. With the emperor's irrational favor, I'm afraid Nian Shilan's position as imperial concubine may be in danger.
To take a step back, even if she could keep her position, Concubine Hua would not be as favored as she is now, and would not be able to threaten the status of the Queen.
"Your Majesty, have you been to the Yanxi Palace or the Yikun Palace in the past few days?"
Zhaoshui shook her head. She did not seek any information in this regard, but just heard people talking about this matter near the Imperial Hospital.
"I do know something," Xiao Chizi had been standing silently by the side, but because his master was curious about this matter, he told him what he knew, "The emperor has been in Xianfu Palace and Chuxiu Palace these days, especially Concubine Xin, who is there more often."
It has to be said that Xin Changzai was also a strange person. The emperor would often talk about wanting to visit her and often stay overnight, but her status could never be promoted.
She couldn't even bring her own children back to raise them by her side and could only visit them occasionally.
"It's not surprising that Concubine Xin is here. The Emperor visits her often. But this Xianfu Palace...do you know whether he is going to Concubine Hui or Concubine Jing?"
"I went to Concubine Jing's place more often." Xiao Chizi thought about it for a moment, but he didn't investigate the matter seriously, so he could only give a rough idea, "I think I went to Concubine Hui's place... too."
According to the emperor's personality, he mostly likes young and fresh girls, but Concubine Jing is not very old, and if she wants to please the emperor, she can make the emperor stay for a few more days.
Anyway, Concubine Jing has already taken the medicine and is trying her best to have a child. It just so happens that the Emperor is willing to go over, so it's the best of both worlds.
"I think the emperor must be a little tired after accompanying Concubine Fu all day, so it is normal for him to find a more comfortable place.
But we still need to pay more attention to Fu Chang over there, I really don’t know what they are planning in secret.”
"Just don't plot against our Chengqian Palace."
Zhaoshui couldn't help but sigh. Ever since her master got pregnant, she had been worried every day, but she still couldn't avoid being murdered. "I hope my master can be pregnant safely until October. These people should stop it."
Ling Rong was amused by Zhao Shui's resentful tone. She wiped the water stains from her lips and said, "I'm afraid other people think the same way. Please stop hurting others when you call me your little master."
Although Lingrong said this, she didn't intend to stop at this point. Since the person had already been harmed, she didn't want to care whether it was once or twice.
"That's right." Zhaoshui laughed. In this deep palace, people are always hurting each other. There are no good people left. "It seems unreasonable to make things difficult for others when we ourselves can't do it."
"That's right."
Ling Rong was just making excuses for herself. After all, she had harmed people in both her past and present lives, some of which were voluntary and some were forced. But it cannot be said that there were no good people in the palace.
But no matter what, if someone hurts you, it's always right to find a way to retaliate.
"But if you say that the young lady took the initiative to harm others, I don't think so." Xiao Chizi shook his head. What he saw was that Zhen Changzai was wrong first and took advantage of her favor to humiliate the young lady. "If it weren't for Zhen Changzai's favor, the young lady wouldn't have suffered so much."
"You..." Ling Rong looked at Zhao Shui and Xiao Chi Zi, "I know you care about me, but Concubine Zhen doesn't want to say that. Just say it in the palace, and be careful when you leave this room.
A centipede is dead but still alive, so don’t let anyone with ulterior motives hear it.”
"We all know it, young master." Xiao Chizi and Zhaoshui exchanged a glance, both of them knew what their master was thinking, "Zhaoshui often pays attention to Baohua Palace, and I pay more attention to Xianfu Palace.
Any disturbance will be reported to you immediately."
These two places are indeed the ones that Lingrong pays the most attention to, but in fact the Queen and Concubine Huahua also care about them equally.
But now we have limited manpower, so this is all we can do.
After all, the situation around her was being watched by two palace maids assigned by the emperor. If the empress wanted to intervene again, it would not be so easy to succeed.
It would also be easy for Fanglin and Fanghua to tell the emperor, causing him to become suspicious.
"You two have worked very hard. I will double your allowance this month, and I will pay for it from my end."
Xiaochizi and Zhaoshui were very happy and thanked Lingrong again and again. There was laughter and joy in the hall.
But soon, the laughter stopped - because Aunt Fangjing came in and said that Concubine Fu wanted to see her for something.
Ling Rong frowned. Fu Changzai had just joined Concubine Hua's staff not long ago, yet she came to Chengqian Palace in such a swagger. She really had no idea what she was thinking.
"Ask her to come in."
Lingrong was not worried that she would dare to drug her in front of her. After all, both of them were pregnant. Unless Fu Changzai did not want the baby in her belly and planned to use Lingrong as a scapegoat.
But Zhaoshui was a little worried. She stood beside Lingrong, guarding against Fu Changzai doing something out of line.
But Fu Changzai's attitude was normal. She was as casual as Lingrong's old friend and was also very casual when paying a visit.
Perhaps because she was pregnant, she no longer called herself a slave like before, "Since returning to the palace from Yuanmingyuan, I haven't paid my respects to you for a long time.
My sister is so busy with her pregnancy, I wonder if she has forgotten about me, your younger sister."
There was something else behind Fu Chang's words, and Ling Rong understood it instantly. She was afraid that Fu Chang was upset that she had not given her a gift.
"How could that be? I have prepared some gifts for my sister. I figured out which day the Emperor would not be in the palace, so I asked Zhaoshui to deliver them to her."
Ling Rong smiled and asked Zhao Shui to take the prepared gift, and brought it to Fu Chang Zai to take a look, "They are just some external things, please don't despise them, sister.
After all, you are pregnant now, and it is not appropriate to give you many health-preserving herbs for you to use indiscriminately."
Fu Changzai saw that the gift was very valuable, and her smile became more sincere. "I am pregnant for the first time, and I am always unsure. The emperor is worried, so he often accompanies me.
The elder sister has been pregnant for a long time, so she must be the one who understands the younger sister the most."
Since Lingrong became pregnant, the emperor didn't seem to pay much attention to her. Now that he finally showed some concern, Fuchangzai became pregnant again.
Fu Chang was just like Empress Chun Yuan, and she immediately drew the whole body and soul of the Emperor over to her. How could Ling Rong personally understand the "burden" of Fu Chang?
Fu Changzai is really bold now. She even dares to show off her favor openly in her own territory.
Although Lingrong didn't want to take her seriously, Fu Changzai relied on her face, so Lingrong couldn't help but pay attention to her.
"I am not as lucky as my sister. The Emperor and the Empress both care about me personally, and even Concubine Hua takes care of me.
In this harem, the most favored person is no one else except my sister."
Ling Rong's pregnancy was already eye-catching, and she was happy to have a fool rushing in front to help her attract fire.
Fu Changzai, who is pregnant and obsessed with vying for favor and promotion, is the best choice at the moment.
Fu Changzai felt a little flattered by the praise, but she had been pregnant for a long time, but the emperor had never sent palace maids to serve her like he did to Lingrong.
Now she is still surrounded by Baoyuan and a few young girls, which makes her feel a little dissatisfied.
"The Emperor has also given you two palace maids to serve you. I am so envious." Fu Changzai smiled gently, but there was always a hint of disdain in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. "Now that your pregnancy is stable, I wonder if you would be willing to lend Fanglin and Fanghua to me.
After all, the fetus is most likely to be unstable during the first three months, and my sister knows this best."
Ling Rong was a little surprised. When she looked at Fu Chang's coquettish appearance, a feeling of disgust suddenly surged up in her heart.
"Fanglin and Fanghua were given to me by the Emperor. Even after the birth of the baby, these two will be responsible for taking care of the heir."
Ling Rong also smiled, she did not show any displeasure, "If my sister really wants these two palace maids, please ask the emperor to come over another day and take them both away."
Fu Changzai's smile froze on her face. She raised her eyebrows in displeasure, and it took her a while to calm down. "Sister is pregnant now, so there's no need to hold on to those two palace maids."
"If my sister really likes it, she can ask for the emperor's will. Why bother making things difficult for me?"
Lingrong refused to give in no matter what. No one knew who gave the order to Fu Changzai or whether she had this idea on her own.
If it is the former, then it can be said that Fu Changzai had to do it in order to survive. But if it is the latter, then it is either stupid or bad, and he deliberately made himself angry.
Fu Changzai was choked back again. She opened her mouth again, but finally did not dare to make random threats in the name of the emperor.
This is much smarter than Yu Ying'er. She doesn't offend others to death and leaves a little way out.
However, Lingrong felt that she was not a virtuous person who would forgive others when she could. When she looked at Fuchang's face, she couldn't help but start to plan in her mind.
"Sister is really favored. Even her words are so confident."
"Sister is the one who has more confidence." Ling Rong made an envious expression and sighed casually, "Now with the help of Concubine Hua, I'm afraid that sister will become a noble lady or even a concubine tomorrow."
"How could the Imperial Concubine be so easy to deal with? I was just favored by the Emperor, but she called me over and beat and scolded me.
Fortunately, the emperor is more attached to the two in Xianfu Palace now, so she turned her anger to others. "
Apparently, Fu Changzai did not get anything good from Concubine Hua, and even suffered a lot because of her favor.
But Lingrong felt it was a little strange when she saw that her face was rosy and she didn't even look like she was affected by Huan Yi Xiang.
“Empress Hua, whether it’s favor or anything else, is used to the best.
It's just like the Huanyi incense burning in her palace, which is the only one in the palace.
No matter how favored one is, he has never gotten even a little bit."
"What Huanyi incense?" Fuzi was a little surprised. She went to Yikun Palace for several days in a row and did not see Concubine Hua light any incense.
Concubine Hua didn't even order the Huan Yi Xiang? !
Lingrong was a little surprised. Could it be that Concubine Hua knew that there was something wrong with the incense and decided to stop burning it on her own?
But given Concubine Hua's temper, if she knew that there was something wrong with Huan Yixiang, she would have reported it to the Emperor long ago and asked him to take charge and find out who harmed her.
How was it possible to stop burning incense so secretly without letting anyone know?
Is it possible...
Ling Rong had a vague idea in her mind. After all, the Queen's prescription had been circulating in the palace for a long time under the name of Shen Meizhuang. If Concubine Hua got the prescription that could help her get pregnant, she would definitely use it.
And Fu Changzai, who was called by Concubine Hua to Yiku Palace to receive instructions every day, was probably also using that prescription.
Concubine Hua was worried that taking medication to get pregnant would have an impact on herself and the child, so she called Fu Chang over to see her condition with her own eyes.
If you stop burning incense in order to get pregnant, it is very possible.
It seems that the big surprise for the Queen and the Emperor will be coming soon.
