"This time when I came to visit Noble An, I felt that the Suiyu Pavilion where you live is a bit crowded."

Yongzheng sat down in the main hall, motioning Zhen Huan and An Lingrong to not be so formal, and then said to An Lingrong: "So, I plan to change your residence."

After hearing these words, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong were both stunned for a moment, as they had not expected such a sudden change.

However, An Lingrong quickly reacted and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, but I am used to living in Suiyuxuan. I usually get along well with my sister. Besides, there are not many people around me, so I don't need a big place!"

Yongzheng wanted her to change palaces, which was beyond An Lingrong's expectations.

On the other hand, An Lingrong and Zhen Huan have been together for a long time and have already adapted to this lifestyle. Naturally, she is unwilling to move out suddenly.

Zhen Huan had the same idea. She looked at the emperor and seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

"Haha, I know you two sisters have a deep bond, but you live in a spacious house now. When you give birth to a prince in the future, there will inevitably be a group of maids, palace maids, and eunuchs. By then, how will this small Sui Yu Xuan be able to accommodate them?"

The emperor looked at the two of them with an expression that seemed to be smiling, and the information revealed in his words also surprised An Lingrong and the other two.

According to the ancestral palace system, concubines are not allowed to raise their own children, and the mistress of a palace has no right to raise the royal heirs.

However, according to what Yongzheng said, it seemed that he tacitly agreed that An Lingrong would raise the child herself after giving birth.

In other words, this means to promote An Lingrong!

Only by holding the position of concubine can one be in charge of the affairs of a palace and have the right to raise children.

But in this case, An Lingrong would have to move out.

"That's what I think. You two sisters have a deep bond. Even if you don't live together, it will be convenient for you to come and go as long as you are willing."

Yongzheng said this, looked at An Lingrong deeply, and then said: "Of course, I never like to force others. If you insist on doing this, I will naturally not make it difficult for you."

These words made An Lingrong silent for a while, and she began to think rapidly in her mind.

From the moment she got the news from Xiao Xiazi that the emperor would come to Suiyuxuan tonight, she knew that the other party had ulterior motives.

She was pregnant and not fit to serve the emperor in the bedchamber. But if she had come for Zhen Huan, the emperor could have simply flipped over her name card and carried her into the Yangxin Palace.

But since he came in person, it meant that something must have happened, and this matter was related to the two of them.

Now, combined with what the emperor said, An Lingrong guessed that the purpose behind this move was not only to show "favor" to herself, but also that Yongzheng wanted to take this opportunity to elevate Zhen Huan's status.

It was impossible to hide the previous "Sui Yuxuan Palace Moving Incident" from the emperor, but it was the queen who was behind it and the reasons she gave were reasonable, so Yongzheng had no intention of interrogating it.

After coming here and seeing it with his own eyes, Yongzheng might have thought of asking her to move!

An Lingrong thought for a moment and took the lead in breaking the silence.

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

An Lingrong bowed to Yongzheng with a smile on her face and kowtowed respectfully.

"Okay, get up!"

When Yongzheng saw An Lingrong's obedient appearance, his smile deepened.

As soon as the words fell, Zhen Huan reacted and hurried forward to help An Lingrong up.

The two people's eyes met, and they saw the complicated expressions in each other's eyes.

However, Zhen Huan could understand An Lingrong's decision.

She was intelligent, and she could figure out the deeper meaning behind what the emperor had just said after a little thought.

Therefore, An Lingrong now agrees to the emperor and is willing to follow his arrangements. This is not only to fight for a future for herself and her children, but also to fulfill her wish in disguise!

After An Lingrong left, she lived alone in Shuiyuxuan and naturally felt more free.

And if An Lingrong gave birth to a royal heir, she could be promoted to concubine and would be able to rule a palace alone.

Such a result would be of great benefit to both parties. Even though Zhen Huan was reluctant, she suppressed those turbulent thoughts.

"The Yonghe Palace and Zhongcui Palace are still vacant. Both palaces are quite nice. Take a look. Which one do you want to live in?"

Yongzheng was very satisfied when he saw the scene of "sisterly love" in front of him, and at the same time he offered two options to An Lingrong.

Yonghe Palace and Zhongcui Palace are both one of the "Six Eastern Palaces", and are the formal main palaces.

According to An Lingrong's memory, Yonghe Palace had always been vacant, while Zhongcui Palace was where the Borjigit noblewoman lived.

The presence of that noble lady Borjigit in the palace is really too low at present. Also, because she is a Mongolian concubine, although Manchu-Mongol marriage is an old custom, she is not close to the concubines of the Manchu and Han army flags on weekdays, which also leads to the fact that people don’t know much about her.

But An Lingrong knew that in a few years, the other party would also be granted the title of concubine, and would then be able to take charge of Zhongcui Palace alone.

After some consideration, An Lingrong already had the answer in her mind, but she knew better how to deal with the emperor.

Therefore, An Lingrong smiled and said to Yongzheng: "I will obey the emperor's arrangements. Everything is subject to the emperor's will!"

Sure enough, such an answer undoubtedly made Yongzheng very satisfied.

"Then let's go to Yonghe Palace!"

Yongzheng waved his hand and directly decided An Lingrong's next destination.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

An Lingrong knew that Yongzheng must have already had the answer in his mind.

His question was not meant to test anything, he just said it casually.

If I really let Yongzheng make decisions according to my own ideas, the emperor probably wouldn't say anything, but he certainly wouldn't be as happy as he is now.

After Yongzheng nodded, he summoned Su Peisheng in. In addition to asking him to take charge of An Lingrong's relocation, he pondered for a while and said, "Wan Changzai is respectful and docile. She will be promoted to a noble lady!"

Yongzheng's words were not surprising, at least An Lingrong and Su Peisheng had already expected this.

But Zhen Huan was shocked. Even though she had already guessed this in her mind, when her idea was confirmed, her first reaction was still a bit at a loss.

"What's wrong? Are you so happy that you've gone crazy?" Yongzheng liked to see his young and beautiful concubines ecstatic because of his favor.

So, when Zhen Huan looked frightened, he smiled especially happily.

"Congratulations, sister!"

An Lingrong smiled at Zhen Huan, and from then on, everyone was finally on an equal footing.

However, the emperor's sudden inspiration may stir up a storm in the already restless palace...

Thinking of this, An Lingrong sighed inwardly, then took a deep breath, adjusted her mood, and began to serve the emperor with Zhen Huan.
