An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

Unknowingly, several people in the Yanxi Palace formed an "Alliance to Defeat Zhen Huan". Concubine Tian and Xia Dongchun went to investigate Zhen Huan and Shen Meiyu respectively, while Lingrong was responsible for investigating Concubine Chun.

Although Lingrong has become a concubine, Concubine Tian always feels that Lingrong is still the young concubine who just entered the palace. No matter how high her position is, it is useless. She still has to rely on her Fucha family to live happily in the palace.

Of course, Lingrong never put on airs in front of the two of them.

After all, they can bring so many benefits to me at the moment. As long as the benefits are obtained, it doesn’t matter who is the open thug.

However, ever since Prince Guo married a concubine, he came to the harem less often. The few times he came were also during various festivals to bring gifts to the Empress Dowager.

Concubine Tian tried desperately to find out the relationship between the two people, but found that they really had no chance to meet.

He originally wanted to use the accusation of having an affair to bring down Zhen Huan, but he didn't expect that he would fail and didn't get any useful evidence.

As for Xia Dongchun, they found out a lot of things, including that Wen Shichu had been checking Xianfugong's pulse for several months, and several times the pulse checking took more than an hour.

It’s just that the pulse case in the Imperial Hospital was handled well, and Xia Dongchun’s people checked it out, and all it said was that Concubine Hui had an accidental miscarriage and needed long-term conditioning.

The medicine taken out from the Imperial Pharmacy was indeed used to replenish women's blood and beautify their appearance.

However, after Zhen Huan left Baohua Palace, Wen Shichu rarely went to Xianfu Palace.

At first, he and Wei Lin went separately, but in the last half month or so, only Wei Lin went to check the patient's pulse.

However, Wei Lin was different from Wen Shichu. Although he still prescribed the same prescription as Wen Shichu, the time for taking a pulse was greatly shortened, often not even enough time for a cup of tea.

This makes people wonder what Wen Shichu did while staying in Shen Meizhuang's Cunju Hall for so long.

When the three of them were sitting in the Imperial Garden and talking about this, Ling Rong still looked shocked.

However, at this time she reminded Concubine Tian that Imperial Physician He and Imperial Physician Wen were both in the Imperial Medical Bureau, and Concubine Tian might as well ask Imperial Physician He if he knew what was going on.

"I have asked before." Concubine Tian frowned, as if she was unwilling to talk about this matter. "That Concubine Hui did not abide by the palace rules. She actually...really had an affair with that imperial physician..."

Noble Lady Tian had a look of disgust on her face. Shen Meizhuang was usually very noble and proud, so how could she do such a dirty thing?

"He Anming saw it with his own eyes?!" Xia Dongchun's eyes widened instantly. This was even more exciting than the storybook. She was worthy of being Shen Meizhuang, with a good family background and a brave heart.

"Not really...just some guesses." Although it was quite reasonable, Concubine Tian also knew that it could not be used as evidence.

"That's a shame."

Xia Dongchun had a sigh on her face. She didn't like the emperor, nor did she like Shen Meizhuang, so she was more focused on watching the show.

However, Concubine Tian was obviously different. She seemed to have some feelings for the emperor, and she felt a sense of disgust that she could empathize with him.

"Since we have discovered the clues, we should investigate them day and night. Sooner or later, the two of them will reveal their true colors."

“Since Imperial Physician He has discovered it, I’m afraid other people in the Imperial Hospital may also know about it.

That Wei Lin took over Wen Shichu's job of diagnosing Concubine Hui's pulse, maybe he will know a lot."

Anyway, Concubine Tian has become interested in Shen Meiyu and Wen Shichu, so Lingrong doesn't mind helping her find more evidence.

Anyway, there are only a few smart concubines in the harem. If there is one less, there will be less fighting, and it will be easier for me to get promoted to a higher status.

Anyway, I don’t want that word “li” anymore.

I don't ask the emperor to spend time thinking about giving me a title, but at least don't listen to Zhen Huan's advice and deliberately give me a bird's name.

"That's a direction, so let's continue investigating. Can Xia Changzai help me?"

Xia Dongchun hummed deeply, as if thinking about whether to help Concubine Tian.

After all, the only person Xia Dongchun has a grudge against right now is the Queen, and he has no intention of harming anyone personally.

"Don't worry, I'm just using you to investigate. I won't let you and your people be the first to expose the dirty deeds of Concubine Hui."

"I'm here to help you investigate. This gift..."

Concubine Tian clenched her fists. She didn't expect that Xia Dongchun would actually blackmail her.

She secretly told herself to be tolerant, otherwise it would be difficult to convince others if she became a noble concubine or even a queen.

"You can't do without it. You don't lack money, but you are so greedy."

"I'm not short of money, but Concubine Tian has a lot of good things, I like them." Xia Dongchun held Ling Rong's hand and smiled at Concubine Tian with curved eyes, "Don't forget her, double the amount."

Ling Rong was pulled to stand next to Xia Dongchun. She didn't know what to say for a moment, so she just smiled.

"Two debt collectors." Concubine Tian muttered, but did not refuse Xia Dongchun's request.

After all, she wanted to sit on the throne of queen, so she tolerated these two people hanging around in front of her.

Lingrong was also surprised that Concubine Tian could endure it like this. If it were in the past, if Xia Dongchun had pushed her too far, she would have definitely scolded her.

She did not forget that Xia Dongchun was punished by Concubine Tian and was made to stand in the corridor in the cold wind for an hour because she did not pay attention to the order of seniority.

It was a pity that no matter how Lingrong guessed, she could not guess what Concubine Tian was planning, so she decided not to say a word and just nodded and smiled slightly.

"But this Zhen Huan..." After thinking it over, Concubine Tian still wanted to deal with Zhen Huan, "We can't let her get away with it like this, what can you do?"

"Your Excellency has forgotten," Ling Rong couldn't help but say when she heard that Noble Lady Tian wanted to harm Zhen Huan, "Ever since Concubine Zhen was released from house arrest, Imperial Doctor Wen has been going to Yongshou Palace frequently."

Concubine Tian raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that Wen Shichu actually had some unclear relationship with Zhen Huan.

"I remember that he seemed to have asked for Concubine Zhen's hand in marriage." Xia Dongchun suddenly said something. She quickly glanced at Ling Rong, "I can't remember when I got the news. Concubine Tian's family is powerful. It must not be difficult to find out some news outside the palace."

"Need I tell you? The power of my Fucha family is beyond the reach of a small Baoyi Zuoling." Concubine Tian had a proud look on her face, and that disdainful expression was exactly what Lingrong was familiar with.

Finally seeing the familiar expression, Ling Rong felt relieved. This person was still the same as before, although he had some tricks, he was still so easy to understand.

After all, others who wanted to take revenge did so secretly, but only Concubine Tian wanted to take revenge on Zhen Huan, and she called both her and Xia Dongchun out to plot.

The three of them discussed for a while before dispersing. Ling Rong was still investigating Fang Jiachun's intentions, while Xia Changzai and Tian Guiren were trying to find a way to continue investigating Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang.

In her previous life, Imperial Concubine Xi had an affair and failed to bring down Zhen Huan. In this life, she wondered if she would have a chance to let the Emperor know that his two favorite concubines would rather choose an imperial physician than reveal their true feelings to him.

I'm really looking forward to seeing the emperor's expression. Will he be as black as the bottom of a pot, or as pale as paper?

I wonder if the emperor will forgive his beloved Concubine Zhen and accept her child with another man to become the heir of the royal family.

"such a pity."

"My lady, are you feeling sorry for Concubine Zhen?" Zhaoshui was fanning Lingrong. She didn't know what the three concubines had discussed, but she knew that her lady cared the most about Concubine Zhen, with whom she had a bad relationship.

"You have a keen sense."

Ling Rong raised her hands to block the sunlight from her face. She looked up at the azure sky and felt warm and lazy all over.

"Zhen Changzai refuses to admit that she has harmed Concubine Tian," Zhaoshui elaborated on his guess, "According to Concubine Tian's personality, she will definitely not tolerate it and will definitely find a way to punish Zhen Changzai.

And the young lady was once harmed by Concubine Zhen, so it is not surprising that Concubine Tian wants to form an alliance with the young lady."

"You guessed right." Lingrong was very satisfied with Zhaoshui's growth over the past year, "It's just that Zhen Huan is much more careful now, and is only concentrating on pleasing the emperor and vying for his favor.

Even if Lady Tian wanted to take action against her, it would be difficult for her to find sufficient evidence."

"Zhen Changzai committed many evil deeds and killed many heirs to the throne.

I always feel that the emperor doesn't like Zhen Changzai very much, and he is just so patient because of something."

Although he said so, Zhaoshui couldn't understand why the emperor did this.

"Just considering Zhen Chang's face, the emperor can't bear to let her go."

The emperor will not let go of anyone who has any connection with Queen Chunyuan.

Moreover, whether in appearance, talent or temperament, Zhen Huan is very similar to Empress Chun Yuan. As for Concubine Fu, she just looks more similar.

If he had to choose between these two people, the emperor would choose Zhen Huan without hesitation, even though Zhen Huan was entangled with Prince Guo and Wen Shichu.

"My Lord, are they really that similar?"

Zhaoshui didn't quite understand why the emperor liked Queen Chunyuan so much and even gave Zhen Huan a break again and again.

"I don't know. I haven't met Queen Chunyuan either."

Lingrong doesn't care who the emperor likes, but as long as Zhen Huan is around, it might hinder her promotion.

“But I know that having someone who looks like Queen Chunyuan in this palace is enough.

If there are more, this favor will be divided.”

Lingrong looked at Fu Changzai in the distance and a gentle smile appeared on her face.

Fu Changzai obviously came to the Imperial Garden to look for Lingrong. As soon as she saw Lingrong, she immediately quickened her pace, as if she was afraid that Lingrong would turn around and leave.

Lingrong already knew that the Queen wanted to plot against her, and Cao Qinmo also reminded her, so she naturally felt more confident when facing Fu Changzai.

Anyone who wanted to frame me would definitely put something on my body or in the palace as evidence.

"I pay my respects to Concubine An, may you live in peace and happiness."

Fu Chang was very well-behaved this time. She kneeled deeply and saluted with respect on her face.

Lingrong was standing in the sun and was in no mood to tease Fu Changzai. She nodded and took the lead to enter Wanchun Pavilion and sit down.

"I haven't seen Fu Changzai for a long time. She looks even more beautiful than before."

"Sister Anpin, you are too kind. Since giving birth to Princess Youning, you have become even more charming.

I am a woman, and I feel moved when I see her."

Fuzi was most satisfied with her face. Whenever someone praised her beauty, she would look very pleased.

Especially for a woman like Lingrong who is not outstanding in appearance but holds a high position, it is easy for Fu Changzai to become ambitious and think that he can also hold a high position with his beauty.

"My sister and I have been acquaintances for a long time, so why should we be so polite?

If you have anything to say, just speak up."

Lingrong couldn't wait any longer and wanted to see what method Fu Changzai would use to frame her for the Queen.

"It was Concubine Zhen," Concubine Fu asked Handan to take out a box, "I found out that she was secretly communicating with Concubine Duan. Concubine Duan didn't actually take the poison."

"So what? It is an indisputable fact that Noble Nian ordered the women of Yuguan to poison. Could it be that my sister... wants to clear Noble Nian's name?"

"How could that be? The whole palace is happy that she has fallen." Fu Changzai waved her hands hastily. She opened the box and revealed the contents. "I just want justice for my child."

Ling Rong didn't understand what was going on, so she lowered her eyes to glance at the two white porcelain bottles in the box.

"This bottle contains strychnine powder. Concubine Duan once caught Baoyuan sprinkling this medicine into her water bucket, and easily broke the deadlock.

I was indeed scared that day, worried that the matter would be exposed and the emperor would dislike me.

But I also know that because of the child in my belly, the Emperor will never sentence me to death.

"I had a plan in mind, but ended up having a miscarriage due to 'fear'. Your Majesty, don't you find it strange?"

Lingrong did find it strange. After all, Fu Changzai was a person who dared to use poison to kill people. How could she be so easily frightened into having a miscarriage?

"I have been investigating for a long time before I found out that there was something wrong with the pregnancy-preserving pills that Doctor Wen fed me that day."

Fu Changzai picked up another porcelain bottle and poured out a pill from it. "This pill contains some strychnine. Although the amount is not much, it is enough to cause a miscarriage."

Fu Changzai handed the porcelain bottle forward, as if wanting Lingrong to take it and have a look.

But Ling Rong just shook her head and refused to extend her hand. "According to what Fu Changzai said, it was Doctor Wen who aborted your abortion in the name of preserving the fetus, and the ones who instructed Doctor Wen were Zhen Changzai and Concubine Duan?"

When Fu Changzai saw that Lingrong refused to take the medicine, she put the two bottles of medicine back into the box.

She nodded slightly, then squatted down and begged Lingrong to help her in a crying voice.

"After my miscarriage, I was heartbroken day and night and could not sleep. I wished I could eat Zhen Huan and Concubine Duan alive and let them suffer."

Fu Changzai raised her face so that Lingrong could see the tears rolling down her cheeks, "Sister also lost a son to that bitch named Zhen, so you must understand the pain in my heart the best.

Now that she is back in favor, I don’t know when she will continue to deal with you and me.

Why don't you join forces with your younger sister to send these two to the underworld and let them accompany Noble Nian in the cold palace, and seek justice for our child!"
