An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

Chapter 19: Failed Attempt to Invite Favor

"Ouch!"

Zhen Huan did not expect that Concubine Chun would suddenly pounce on her. She lost her balance and was almost thrown to the ground.

"Sister, be careful!"

Fortunately, An Lingrong was quick-witted and realized something was wrong when she saw Chun Changzai rushing towards her. She supported Zhen Huan at the critical moment, thus preventing her and Chun Changzai from falling to the ground together.

"Little Master!"

Cui Jinxi, Huanbi and others were also frightened. They quickly surrounded Zhen Huan and pulled Chun Changzai away from her.

"Woooooooo..."

Chun Changzai was obviously very reluctant. Even when two nannies came to pull her back, she kept whining.

If it were under normal circumstances, seeing the other person so aggrieved, Zhen Huan might have tried to comfort him with gentle words.

But this time, Zhen Huan had already guessed that Chun Changzai might have done something she shouldn't have done, and when she saw that she looked like she needed to be coaxed, she lost her patience.

"Help your young master sit down first."

As the person with the highest position in Sui Yuxuan, Zhen Huan's words are naturally effective.

Even though she and Chun'er were both concubines, she had a title and lived in the main hall, so she was naturally higher than Chun'er.

The two housemaids did not dare to neglect Zhen Huan and nodded repeatedly, and finally pushed Chun Changzai back to the chair.

"What happened?"

An Lingrong didn't want to speak at first, but when she saw that Zhen Huan looked tired, she asked the two housekeepers anyway.

Because Chun Changzai was still young, after she entered the palace, the Ministry of Internal Affairs assigned her not a young palace maid, but two older maids, with the purpose of teaching the young Lady Changzai well.

On weekdays, although the governess was respectful to Chun Changzai, she still gave her all the necessary instruction and guidance.

An Lingrong had just observed the expressions of the two maids, and saw that when Concubine Chun was making a fuss, the expression on one of the maids' face became extremely serious, and her chest rose and fell violently several times, as if she was trying her best to suppress her inner emotions.

"This……"

An Lingrong just agreed. In response to her question, the two maids looked at each other, but hesitated, not knowing whether they should answer.

“That’s what I want to know, too.”

Zhen Huan was not stupid. She knew that the two maids were just looking at people and said, "We live together in Suiyuxuan with your young master. We share honor and disgrace. Shouldn't there be an explanation for what happened today?"

"Sister Wan..."

Chun'er seemed to have recovered at this time, but she was pulling the blanket and said hesitantly: "I was just playing around and accidentally fell into the water..."

Her voice was soft to begin with, and it got lower and lower as she spoke further.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Huan cast her gaze over with a look of obvious scrutiny in her eyes.

Concubine Chun was already feeling guilty, so naturally she didn't dare to look Zhen Huan in the eye.

Seeing this scene, An Lingrong beside her laughed instantly.

Chun Changzai obviously would not lie. This set of rhetoric could not even convince himself, and the guilty look on his face was the best evidence to expose himself.

"If you fell into the water just for fun, why would you cry all the way back?"

Zhen Huan first asked back, and seeing Chun Er avoid her gaze and not answer her, she turned to the two nurses and said, "You two nurses are both old people in the palace. The Ministry of Internal Affairs assigned you to Chun Changzai, probably hoping that you could educate the young lady well. In the end, this is the result of your work?"

At the end of her speech, Zhen Huan's eyes became fierce, and she looked intimidating without even getting angry.

"You two should tell the truth. If something really happened, we can discuss a solution together."

Cui Jinxi was also a senior palace maid and knew the two maids personally. She immediately hinted to them with her eyes that they should tell the truth.

When Zhen Huan came back earlier, she looked very strange. Cui Jinxi knew that something must have happened when she was paying her respects to the Queen.

But before she could ask, Zhen Huan asked them all to leave, leaving only An Lingrong. She didn't know what the two of them talked about. When she was summoned again, Cui Jinxi felt that Zhen Huan had returned to normal.

Not only that, Zhen Huan even asked about Queen Chun Yuan.

Cui Jinxi was secretly surprised by this, and at the same time had a vague feeling that this young lady of hers was definitely not an ordinary person, and would definitely soar into the sky in the future!

"Ugh……"

Faced with everyone's questions, the two maids were obviously overwhelmed and could only look at Chun Changzai for help.

The truth cannot be hidden. Even if the maids wanted to conceal it, they had no idea how many people saw it on the way back.

Even if I don't tell you today, if Wan Changzai really wants to know, he just needs to send someone out to inquire, and he will eventually find out the truth!

"Mammy, please tell me..."

Chun'er's voice was heavily nasal, but her little face emerged from under the blanket. She nodded to one of the tall maids, indicating that she should answer Zhen Huan's question.

"Yes." The old nanny calmed down and then said, "Reporting to Wan Changzai and An Da Ying, our young master left Jingren Palace first after paying homage to the Empress. On the way... the young master said that she wanted to see the scenery of the Imperial Garden, so we servants naturally followed her all the way, but we didn't expect to meet Empress Hua on the way!"

Having said that, even though the old nanny had seen a lot of ups and downs in the palace, a hint of embarrassment still appeared on her face.

Everything she said was true, but it was precisely because she was telling the truth that it was so embarrassing!

No one present was a fool. As soon as Mammy's words came out, everyone showed meaningful expressions.

An Lingrong narrowed her eyes and looked at Chun Changzai who wrapped herself up in a ball, thinking to herself that she had indeed not underestimated this girl.

At that time, she felt strange. Why did Chun Changzai disappear before she and others left?

It turns out that Concubine Chun had already noticed that the Emperor was going to visit the garden with Concubine Hua, so after the Queen ordered everyone to kneel in greeting, she hurriedly asked two maids to take her to the Imperial Garden!

It is impossible to say that there is no other intention behind this action!

It’s a pity that Chun Changzai is still young and has never seen the tricks in the palace. She also underestimated the extent of Hua Fei’s jealousy!

At this time, Zhen Huan's eyes changed when she looked at Chun'er. She originally thought that this child was innocent and ignorant of the world. She felt that she had known her for a long time because of her. She also felt that Chun'er was very much like her sister Zhen Yurao.

But now, after hearing what the nanny said, Zhen Huan suddenly understood why the other party came back in such a miserable state.

No wonder he fell into the water, he simply asked for it himself!

At such a young age, he is already able to seek favor. It seems that he was punished by Concubine Hua today, but what about the future?

The more Zhen Huan thought about it, the more frightened she became, and her impression of Concubine Chun suddenly became extremely complicated.
