An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

"Eunuch Su, you said the emperor wants to see us?"

An Lingrong and Zhen Huan were originally admiring the flowers in the Imperial Garden. Now that the weather is getting warmer, there is a little more green in the Imperial Garden, which, combined with the warm sunshine, makes people feel relaxed and happy.

As a result, at this moment, Su Peisheng suddenly appeared in front of them and said that the emperor wanted to summon them. This made An Lingrong and Zhen Huan feel somewhat unexpected.

After all, they did not deliberately inquire about the emperor's whereabouts, they just knew that he was extremely passionate with Concubine Hua recently.

However, spying on the emperor's whereabouts is a serious crime. An Lingrong and the others don't want to cause trouble, so they naturally won't do such a thing.

That means, meeting the emperor in the imperial garden today was purely a coincidence!

"Yes, please go quickly, the emperor is waiting for you!"

No matter who he is facing, Su Peisheng always has a smile on his face.

As the saying goes, the more courtesy a person has, the less blame he will give. The fact that he, the chief eunuch, could be so successful was not only due to the favor from the emperor, but also had a lot to do with his own way of dealing with people and things.

"Thank you, Eunuch Su."

An Lingrong smiled at Su Peisheng to show that she understood, then looked at Zhen Huan and without any hesitation, followed her towards the pavilion not far away.

At this moment, Yongzheng was sitting on a chair in the courtyard, seemingly admiring the scenery of the imperial garden.

"Your Majesty, may your majesty live in peace and happiness!"

An Lingrong and Zhen Huan came before the emperor and saluted him smoothly.

"Ah."

Seeing the two of them coming, Yongzheng came back to his senses, looked at Zhen Huan deeply, and then called out, "No need to be polite, please stand up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The two men stood up from the ground and just stood aside, lowering their heads slightly, not looking directly at the emperor.

"Why did you come to the Imperial Garden today?"

When Yongzheng began to notice Zhen Huan and the others, he was a little surprised, but he did not doubt that they were waiting here intentionally.

After all, the reason why he came here was completely on a whim, and no one else had any way of knowing. Even if Zhen Huan and An Lingrong wanted to find out, there was no place for them to find out.

"Reporting to the emperor, Sister An and I have been staying in Suiyuxuan for a long time and have not been outside for a long time. Today the weather is great, so we thought of going out for a walk..."

Zhen Huan was unsure of the emperor's intention, so she was extremely cautious when answering Yongzheng's questions.

"Well, the weather is getting warmer, spring is coming back, and the flowers are about to bloom. It's a good sight!"

Yongzheng played with the jade beads in his hand, then waved at An Lingrong and asked with a smile, "Your fragrance is very special, not like ordinary incense, but it has been unforgettable for me for a long time. What kind of fragrance can be used?"

"Your Majesty, what I use is the scented powder that I researched in my spare time. If you add it to clean water and apply it on your face, it will give your skin a scent that is pleasant and will not overshadow the rest of the skin!"

An Lingrong felt that Yongzheng seemed strange today, and what he said seemed more like making small talk. Although she murmured in her heart, she still answered Yongzheng.

"Can you also make incense?"

Hearing this answer, Yongzheng narrowed his eyes slightly and looked a little surprised.

He had seen An Lingrong's brand many times, but this was the first time he knew that An Lingrong could actually make spices.

"My father made a living from this in his early years, and I have learned a little bit from him."

An Lingrong lowered her head so that Yongzheng could not see her expression clearly.

Yongzheng thought this answer was reasonable and logical, so he naturally did not suspect anything. He just looked at Zhen Huan who was also standing there with her head down, frowned slightly, and said, "Why, are you all afraid of me?"

These words made An Lingrong speechless, but she was naturally not afraid.

But when ordinary people face the emperor, who would look up at him?

Looking up at you is like stabbing you to death!

It would be fine if the emperor was happy, but if one was unhappy, he would bring disaster upon himself!

Although the people in the harem are all the emperor's women, they know better that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger.

However, in her previous life, An Lingrong had also faced many emperors who acted according to their own ideas. At this moment, she calmly replied, "Your Majesty is the supreme ruler. The majesty of the emperor is profound. I, your concubine, dare not be presumptuous!"

"Sister An has always been very cautious and never showed any disrespect to the Emperor!"

Zhen Huan also noticed that the emperor seemed to pay special attention to An Lingrong today. She didn't have any other thoughts in her mind, but was full of nervousness.

"I don't mean to blame you."

After hearing what Zhen Huan and An Lingrong said, Yongzheng realized that his tone might have been a little too harsh, so he said, "You don't have to stand and answer all the time, just sit down!"

As soon as Yongzheng finished speaking, he gave a look to Su Peisheng standing beside him.

Su Peisheng had been with the emperor for so many years, and his understanding of Yongzheng was deep in his bones. Therefore, even if he only received a glance, he understood what he wanted to convey in an instant.

"Please wait for a moment, my two young masters. I will go get a chair right away!"

Although there was a chair in the pavilion of the imperial garden, it was only one, and the emperor sat there. Since seats were given to Zhen Huan and An Lingrong, it must have been prepared by Su Peisheng.

An Lingrong and Zhen Huan nodded slightly to Su Peisheng, and then said to the emperor: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Su Peisheng was still very efficient and soon brought over two embroidery cushions.

An Lingrong and the other person found their seats and no longer had to hunch over like before, and they felt a lot more relaxed all of a sudden.

With the beauty by his side, Yongzheng's mood, which had been irritated by Concubine Hua before, was relieved a lot. He also wanted to get closer to An Lingrong and the others, so he started chatting with them.

"By the way, I remember that you and Concubine Shen are good friends, right? You already knew each other before you entered the palace, and you have a very good relationship?"

Yongzheng remembered that when he went to see Shen Meizhuang, he heard her praise Zhen Huan more than once, so he brought up this matter.

"Your Majesty is wise. Sister Mei and I have known each other since childhood and are close friends!"

When talking about Shen Meizhuang, Zhen Huan's expression softened a lot and her tone was not as stiff as before.

Yongzheng saw all of this, and once again thought that using Shen Meizhuang as a starting point was indeed a wise move on his part.

Gradually, Zhen Huan relaxed and was no longer as reserved as before, and her conversation with the Emperor became more and more enjoyable.

Although An Lingrong seemed to have become a foil, she was happy with the situation and had no complaints at all. She just stood aside as a mascot and watched the two of them talk about Song poetry while discussing the scenery of the Imperial Garden.

An Lingrong didn't want to have too close a chat with the emperor, mainly because they really had nothing to talk about.

It would be best if Zhen Huan could win the emperor's heart and gain his favor.

However, just as Zhen Huan and Yongzheng were chatting more and more excitedly, Hua Fei's chariot also arrived at the Imperial Garden!
