An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

"Mrs. An, it's all because of Jianqiu's confusion that you've been in trouble. I'm going to tell you what to do with Jianqiu. I'll do whatever you want!"

The Queen looked at An Lingrong, and it was obvious that she wanted An Lingrong to quit while she was ahead.

Jianqiu is her trusted maidservant. Even if the Queen tells An Lingrong to do whatever she wants with her, can An Lingrong really do as she pleases?

An Lingrong knew the queen and naturally understood the deep meaning behind her action. At this time, she said, "Your Majesty, I am really terrified when you do this!"

"Ok?"

The queen frowned.

She had thought about An Lingrong's reaction. She might choose to make a big deal out of a small matter, or she might take advantage of the situation and take advantage of it.

However, An Lingrong did not say anything practical, but just said that she was scared, which made the Queen a little confused.

"Aunt Jianqiu is the head maidservant of the Empress, and is deeply trusted by the Empress. Her actions on weekdays mostly represent the Empress's will. Now that the Empress wants me to handle it, shouldn't I be extremely terrified?"

An Lingrong spread out her hands with an extremely innocent expression.

Seeing her pretending to be so, the Queen gritted her teeth and said, "That's why I have to punish her! Otherwise, how can we serve as a warning to others? Lady An, don't worry about this. Since you have been wronged, I will take care of it for you."

"Then please, Madam Queen, give me a small punishment and a big warning!"

An Lingrong changed her previous uneasiness and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if this concubine is a little wronged, but Jianqiu has always been serving the Majesty. If something goes wrong in her daily service to the Majesty, then it will really be..."

Having said this, An Lingrong deliberately prolonged her speech and then stopped talking.

But everyone present understood what An Lingrong meant. Baojuan looked at An Lingrong with complicated emotions in her eyes.

Previously, she was very worried that An Lingrong would be bullied by the Queen, but now it seems that all her worries were in vain.

An Lingrong is not someone who will suffer a loss at all——

Moreover, compared with her previous concessions, Concubine An seems to be much bolder?

"In that case, Jianqiu, I will fine you three months' salary!"

After saying this, the queen felt very depressed.

It's not that I feel sorry for Jianqiu's money. It's enough for the Queen to just give her some of that little bit of silver as a reward.

The problem is that although she was the one who punished Jianqiu, the Queen felt extremely depressed.

This unhappy feeling was hard to describe, but it did exist, and as a result, the queen's mood suddenly became gloomy.

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

Jianqiu should have been relieved to see that she had not received any substantial punishment, but she was fined three months' salary in front of everyone. She also felt a burning sensation on her face, as if she had been slapped in the face!

This complex feeling is really hard to describe, and Jianqiu was too embarrassed to speak anymore.

"By the way, Lady An, do you know why I came to you today?"

The Queen also sensed Jianqiu's discomfort, so she ordered everyone except Jianqiu and Baojuan to leave the hall, leaving only the four of them, and then began to question An Lingrong.

"I don't know, please tell me clearly, Your Majesty."

An Lingrong was of course aware that all these problems could not be avoided around her stomach, but facing the Queen, of course she knew what she didn't know, and didn't know what she didn't know!

"Hmm..." The queen frowned, as if what she was going to say next was very difficult to say.

"My lady, what on earth could have caused you such trouble?"

An Lingrong kept her eyes fixed on the Queen, as if she wanted to share her worries. As soon as she said this, the Queen was choked by her own saliva.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

After a violent coughing fit, the queen's face turned red. She simply stopped pretending and said directly, "I have received news that the reason why you and Concubine Shen got pregnant so quickly was because you used a trick and someone who is proficient in medicine helped you. You should know that this matter can be big or small. If it spreads and the emperor knows about it, even if I want to help, I still can't save you two!"

Having said this, the Queen's tone suddenly became deep.

Baojuan, who was standing behind An Lingrong, had a look of fear on her face. It was not the panic that came from having her secret revealed, but simply the look of being kept in the dark!

Of course, the Queen and Jianqiu also noticed this, and their eyes looking at An Lingrong couldn't help but become solemn again.

Even the people placed next to An Lingrong Baojuan were unaware of this, which shows that this matter is really extremely secretive!

Because of Jianqiu's previous suggestion, the Queen thought carefully and decided to call An Lingrong over for questioning first.

If we can use this "handle" to hold An Lingrong back, that would be perfect.

Therefore, when the Queen questioned them, she did not directly point out that she suspected that the two of them had tried to "fake pregnancy", but only said that the information she had received showed that they used a trick.

This can be considered as leaving a way out for both parties, and it may also be a "sweet treat" that the Queen gives to An Lingrong!

"I really don't understand what the Queen said."

An Lingrong seemed to be stunned as well. After the Queen finished speaking, it took her a long time to react, but she just shook her head blankly.

"Do you deny it? Or do you have other opinions on this?"

The Queen frowned and continued, "Noble Lady An, you should know that ever since you entered the palace, I have been very optimistic about you and have loved you a lot. Just like now, after I learned about this, I should have told the Emperor immediately, but I called you here alone. This is not only to save your face, but also to help you! If you are really confused for a moment and took the wrong path, I can understand..."

"Your Majesty! How can I talk about something I have never done?"

An Lingrong did not wait for the Queen to finish her rambling. She stood up from her seat and stood in front of the Queen. She said firmly, "I have never competed for the Queen's favor, and I have never lied about being pregnant in such a shameful way. If you don't believe me, you can tell the Emperor and ask the imperial physician to come and check. No matter what the result is, I will bear the final consequences of this matter!"

"Mrs. An, you are still young, so it is inevitable that you have a strong character. I am an experienced person, so I will not harm you."

It was the first time that the Queen noticed that An Lingrong was so stubborn. Her expression darkened immediately, and she continued, "Say the same words in front of me and in front of the Emperor. The consequences are completely different. Do you understand?"
