An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

"Sister An has packed everything in a neat and tidy manner!"

When Zhen Huan saw An Lingrong pushing the door open, her eyes lit up.

An Lingrong was seen wearing a plain green dress, her black hair was tied into a bun, and a plain silver hairpin was pinned on her temples. There were no other jewellery to embellish her appearance, but the faint sadness that had always lingered between her brows had disappeared, making An Lingrong look instantly full of energy and spirit.

Aunt Xiao, who was standing by, had always felt that her daughter seemed very different from before. Now, seeing that An Lingrong had dressed herself up neatly, she couldn't help but nod secretly.

It was so quick and easy that she didn't have to worry anymore.

"Thank you, Sister Zhen, for waiting outside." An Lingrong stepped over the threshold, came in front of Zhen Huan, and pretended to bow again.

Zhen Huan hurriedly stopped him, scolding him, "Sister, what are you doing? We haven't seen each other for just one night, why are you so estranged from me?"

"How dare Lingrong!" An Lingrong shook her head and said with a smile, "It was only because I was too sleepy earlier that I had a nightmare and was troubled by it. This made my aunt and sister worry about me and even came here to greet me. Isn't that Lingrong's fault?"

After saying this, An Lingrong bowed to Zhen Huan very solemnly, "That nightmare was really terrible. After waking up, Lingrong was terrified. Thinking about the fact that my aunt and I have no relatives in the capital, it is all thanks to the kindness of my sister, uncle, and aunt that I have a place to stay. Lingrong is very grateful!"

An Lingrong bowed to Zhen Huan, and after the ceremony, she felt much more relaxed.

Aunt Xiao couldn't get a word in. As she looked at An Lingrong, who was acting in her own way, a complex emotion flashed across her eyes.

As a young lady who was also selected to enter the palace, Miss Zhen's father had a high position in the government, so she had her own residence in the capital, and she had maids to serve her in her daily sleep. As for the girl from her own family...

Aunt Xiao's eyes dimmed for a moment.

"Hey, why are you talking about this?"

Zhen Huan was also startled by An Lingrong's sudden serious attitude. She was stunned for a moment until Liu Zhu pushed her. Then she reacted and hurriedly stepped forward to support An Lingrong and comforted her with a few words.

After talking for a while, Zhen Huan saw that An Lingrong answered fluently, her tone was calm and peaceful, and her expression did not seem to show any grievance or dissatisfaction, so she felt relieved a little and asked everyone to go to the front hall together.

Out of kindness, she suggested bringing An Lingrong to live in her house. At the same time, she also knew that the other party seemed to care a lot about her family background, so she usually downplayed these aspects in front of An Lingrong.

But after all, some things are facts and can be ignored, but they do exist.

After listening to An Lingrong's words just now, Zhen Huan was moved, but she was also secretly worried that An Lingrong was being neglected.

"Lingrong, tell me the truth. You have been living in the mansion with Aunt Xiao these days. Are these maids serving you well?"

Zhen Huan held An Lingrong's hand, and the two of them deliberately lagged behind the crowd by a few steps, and at the same time asked An Lingrong again.

"Sister, you have asked me this question once before, and my answer is still the same. This place is nice, and everyone treats me well. How can I be rude?"

An Lingrong just thanked Zhen Huan, partly out of genuine gratitude for her kindness to her, and on the other hand, she was also apologizing for the things that happened in her past life in a way that only she could understand.

She believes that she is not a good person, and even her hands are stained with blood. In the later period, she and Zhen Huan are in different camps, so it is naturally a life-and-death situation.

However, before swallowing the bitter almonds, An Lingrong chose to tell Zhen Huan the secret about the Queen. She wanted to use Zhen Huan to take revenge on the Queen, but also wanted to do her last bit of strength to repay the deep karma she had created over the years.

Now going back to the past, all those events have not happened yet, so she and Zhen Huan naturally have no hatred.

Not only did she have no grudge against her, but Zhen Huan even helped her a lot in the early stages.

Just like when she entered the palace to be selected, she was embarrassed by Xia Dongchun. It was only because of Zhen Huan's righteous words and the gift of Begonia that she had the opportunity to be favored by the emperor and be selected as a concubine...

After apologizing, An Lingrong felt relieved and felt a lot more relaxed.

Unexpectedly, Zhen Huan was still brooding over this matter and thought that she had been wronged in the Zhen Mansion, which made An Lingrong feel both amused and helpless.

"That's the best. You and I are about to enter the palace. Since I took the initiative to bring you here, I naturally don't want my sister to suffer here."

Zhen Huan listened to An Lingrong's words and looked at her expression. She didn't see any sign of pretense at all, so she finally felt relieved.

After experiencing the ups and downs of the imperial court for many years in her previous life, An Lingrong is naturally no longer the little girl who has never seen the world.

Not to mention that she did not suffer any injustice in Zhen Huan's family. Even if she did, she could pretend nothing happened!

"Okay, no more talking, let's go to the front hall and wait!"

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhen Huan pulled An Lingrong to the front hall.

In the front hall, Zhen Yuandao and Zhen's mother were already waiting for them.

Zhen Yuandao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhen Huan and An Lingrong finally arrived.

"Lingrong greets uncle and aunt." An Lingrong bowed seriously.

Zhen Yuandao and his wife waved their hands and said politely, "My lady, there is no need to be so polite!"

Although the titles and positions in the palace have not yet been announced, since Zhen Huan and others were selected, they have become members of the royal family.

There is a difference between the ruler and his subjects, and between inside and outside.

As a subject, how could Zhen Yuandao accept the gift from the concubine?

Even though Zhen Huan said that she should serve her parents as a child before entering the palace, that was after all because Zhen Huan was her daughter. In comparison, An Lingrong was a real guest.

An Lingrong smiled slightly and did not argue.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside, and then a eunuch led two young eunuchs and a nanny into the Zhen family mansion.

"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: Zhen Huan, the daughter of Zhen Yuandao, has been selected as a concubine of the imperial palace. She is to be canonized as a regular sixth-rank official and given the title 'Wan'! She will enter the palace in batches on September 15th! This is my decree!"

The eunuch read the imperial edict in a long tone, then rolled it up and handed it to Zhen Yuandao.

"Long live Long live Long live!"

Including An Lingrong, everyone bowed respectfully.

After the eunuch finished reading the imperial edict, he turned his gaze to An Lingrong, then took out another imperial edict and read it out: "The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims that An Lingrong, the daughter of An Bihuai, is to be conferred the rank of seventh rank concubine and to enter the palace together with her on September 15th. This is my decree!"

After reading the imperial edict, the eunuch handed it to An Lingrong.

An Lingrong raised her hands above her head, took the imperial edict and handed it to Aunt Xiao behind her.

Then, An Lingrong knelt down before him again.

The entire enthronement process was no different from that of her previous life, but the more so, the more determined An Lingrong became to live a different life.

"Long live Long live Long live!"

After three cheers of "Long live the emperor", this was the end of the imperial decree.

"Thank you for your hard work on the journey, father-in-law!" Zhen's mother was prepared and stepped forward to hand over a stack of banknotes.

The eunuch put down the whisk in his hand, and the smile on his face instantly became more sincere, and he said with a smile: "Forget it, Madam, you are too polite. Although Miss Zhen and Miss An live together now, I will trouble Aunt Fangruo to teach them together!"

The maid who had been standing aside and seemed to have no sense of existence stepped forward and said, "I, the servant Fangruo, am responsible for teaching the two young ladies the various court etiquette and palace rules that they must learn before entering the palace."

After she said this, she was about to salute Zhen Huan and An Lingrong.

"Since my aunt wants to teach us etiquette, there is no need to perform grand formalities!" Zhen Huan quickly stopped her.

An Lingrong also smiled and said, "Sister Zhen is right. My sister and I will have to rely on aunt for guidance from now on. How dare we accept aunt's gift?"

"You two are really smart young ladies, so modest and polite. It seems that the burden on Aunt Fangruo's shoulders will be much lighter now that she is teaching them!"

The words of Zhen Huan and An Lingrong seemed to be well-balanced and well-mannered, which naturally made the eunuch who was responsible for conveying the emperor's orders look enlightened.

After exchanging glances with the eunuch, Fang Ruo bowed slightly and said, "Thank you both for your sympathy!"

Compared to the family they visited before, the Zhen family is undoubtedly much more peaceful and sensible. And Xia Dongchun, who has made many jokes before entering the palace, will definitely become the main topic when he returns to report on his work this time!

Fang Ruo looked at Zhen Huan's face, a slight fluctuation flashed in her eyes, then she turned her gaze to An Lingrong and nodded secretly.

One looks very similar to the queen, and the other is obviously not an ordinary person either!
