An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

"We haven't seen the Queen Mother for a long time. We are very concerned about your health, so we want to come and pay our respects to you!"

Faced with the questions from the Queen Mother, Shen Meizhuang, as the most favored one and the oldest among the three, was of course responsible for answering the Queen Mother.

After answering the question, Shen Meizhuang gave an eye hint to An Lingrong and Zhen Huan on her left and right.

They understood instantly, and then followed Shen Meizhuang's actions and began to salute the Queen Mother.

"I respectfully wish the Queen Mother long-lasting health and a peaceful and healthy body!"

Led by Shen Meizhuang, An Lingrong and Zhen Huan respectfully bowed and greeted the Queen Mother.

"Alright, alright, Zhuxi, help him up quickly!"

When the Queen Mother saw this scene, she was of course deeply moved. Then, remembering that Shen Meiyu and An Lingrong were still pregnant, she quickly asked Sun Zhuxi to help them up.

"Yes!"

Although Sun Zhuxi was over 70 years old, she was an old maid in the palace after all, and she was still very strong. It was no problem for her to help Shen Meiyu and An Lingrong up, and she didn't even need Zhen Huan to help.

"Zhu Xi, move two chairs over so I can take a good look at Lady Shen and Lady An."

It is not known whether it was intentional or not, but the Queen Mother asked Sun Zhuxi to bring chairs to An Lingrong and the others and to give them seats, but she only allowed two chairs and directly ignored Zhen Huan.

When the Queen Mother said this, Shen Meizhuang's expression changed slightly, but she was about to speak.

"cough!"

But at this moment, An Lingrong suddenly cleared her throat and signaled Shen Meizhuang with her eyes to be patient.

It was no secret that the Queen Mother did not like Zhen Huan, and even Zhen Huan herself knew it.

However, as her good friend, Shen Meizhuang, while gaining the Queen Mother's favor and protection, also hopes to introduce Zhen Huan to the Queen Mother so that Zhen Huan can also be loved by the Queen Mother.

Because of this, even though she knew that the Queen Mother might not like Zhen Huan, Shen Meizhuang still wanted to give it a try.

After all, if she doesn't try, the Queen Mother's impression of Zhen Huan will always remain the same as her own. No matter how Shen Meizhuang speaks in her favor, the Queen Mother's mind will not change.

But if Zhen Huan were allowed to come and visit more often, maybe one day the Queen Mother would suddenly change her mind?

Even if the probability is low, it’s always good to try!

This is what Shen Meizhuang thought.

Take the present for example. Seeing that the Queen Mother only asked Sun Zhuxi to fetch two chairs, Shen Meizhuang knew that the Queen Mother wanted to exclude Zhen Huan again. Her face changed slightly and she was ready to persuade her.

However, before Shen Meizhuang could say anything to persuade her, she suddenly received a "reminder" from An Lingrong.

Although she didn't understand what An Lingrong meant, after spending time with her, Shen Meizhuang still developed some tacit understanding with her.

Shen Meizhuang didn't say anything, and Zhen Huan certainly didn't have any other ideas. Instead, she gave An Lingrong a look that implied gratitude.

She understood that based on Shen Meizhuang's personality, she would definitely speak up for herself.

But she was not favored by the Queen Mother. If Shen Meizhuang spoke at this time, it would inevitably make the Queen Mother unhappy, and that would be bad.

Zhen Huan didn't care about being treated coldly, since she was just there as a foil.

In comparison, what Zhen Huan was more concerned about was the image of Shen Meizhuang and others in front of the Queen Mother!

"Mr. An, what's wrong with you?"

When An Lingrong used coughing to remind Shen Meiyu, the Queen Mother seemed not to notice and just asked An Lingrong if she was feeling unwell.

An Lingrong replied: "Thank you for your concern, Queen Mother. I am fine. I just caught a cold a few days ago and have a cough..."

At this point, An Lingrong paused for a moment, then continued, "To be honest, it is also thanks to Concubine Wan's care that I am almost well now!"

"Oh?" When the Queen Mother heard this, she raised her eyebrows and then turned her gaze to Zhen Huan.

Being paid attention to by the Queen Mother, Zhen Huan dared not move.

Because what An Lingrong said was completely fabricated. First of all, An Lingrong didn't catch a cold at all, and secondly, she didn't always take care of the other person.

But now, in front of the Queen Mother, no matter how stupid Zhen Huan was, she couldn't just point it out and say that none of this existed, so she could only play dumb.

After staring for a moment, the Queen Mother seemed to have figured something out, and her eyes when she looked at Zhen Huan suddenly became much warmer.

At this time, Sun Zhuxi also moved all the chairs over, and Shen Meizhuang and An Lingrong sat down according to the Queen Mother's instructions.

Then, the Queen Mother said to Sun Zhuxi, "Zhuxi, Wan Changzai is still counting there, go find another chair for her."

"Yes."

Sun Zhuxi was loyal to the Queen Mother and would not have any objection to any request made by the Queen Mother, and this time was no exception.

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

Zhen Huan also realized at this time that An Lingrong's words just now were mainly to pave the way for her.

After all, the Queen Mother already knew that Shen Meiyu and An Lingrong were both pregnant. It is not difficult to guess the reason behind her sudden change of attitude.

That was naturally because An Lingrong told the Queen Mother that Zhen Huan had been taking care of her recently -

An Lingrong and Shen Meizhuang had a dragon offspring. When Zhen Huan took care of An Lingrong, it was equivalent to taking care of the dragon fetus in An Lingrong's belly, that is, taking care of the empress dowager's own grandson.

No matter how prejudiced the Queen Mother was against Zhen Huan, she could not remain indifferent after hearing An Lingrong's words.

At this time, Zhen Huan also understood why An Lingrong stopped Shen Meiyu when she was about to speak. This was because An Lingrong had already thought of a way to deal with the Queen Mother.

As the three of them sat down, the atmosphere in the hall became much calmer.

The Empress Dowager's focus was still on Shen Meiyu and An Lingrong. She kept asking them about their recent health conditions and occasionally imparted some tips based on her own experience so that they could better regulate their morning sickness reactions.

Although Zhen Huan was ignored, she felt extremely happy in her heart.

At this moment, she wished that the Queen Mother's eyes would be directly glued to Shen Meizhuang and the other person.

Firstly, she had nothing good to talk about with the Queen Mother. Secondly, Zhen Huan knew very well that the Queen Mother disliked her, and if Shen Meiyu and An Lingrong could win the Queen Mother's favor, it would be a good thing for everyone.

"Replying to Your Majesty, the little guy has been much more well-behaved recently and is not as noisy as before."

When talking about her children, Shen Meizhuang smiled with her eyes curved, looking as if she was immersed in happiness.

The Queen Mother also smiled in agreement, and was about to ask An Lingrong, but at this moment, there was a noise outside.

Soon after, Sun Zhuxi came over and said to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, it's Concubine Hua. Concubine Hua brought Concubine Li and others to pay their respects to you!"
