An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan
Chapter 22 Meizhuang is favored
"What's wrong? Why are you so flustered? What happened?"
Zhen Huan and An Lingrong looked at each other and noticed the worry in each other's eyes, so they put down the books in their hands and asked about Huanbi and Liuzhu.
Huanbi is as meticulous as dust, and Liuzhu is also smart, and both of them are reliable people.
Zhen Huan only asked them to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to collect the monthly salary for herself and An Lingrong, but the two girls came back in a panic. The reason behind this was naturally strange.
"Reporting to the young master!"
Huanbi and Liuzhu both came back jogging, and were still breathing heavily. When asked by Zhen Huan, they said, "Huanbi and I went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get some silver. On the way, we heard a rumor from a maid that the emperor had picked up Concubine Shen a few days ago, and the emperor later ordered her to learn more about the affairs of the six palaces from the queen, which made Concubine Hua very unhappy!"
Upon hearing what Huanbi said, An Lingrong and Zhen Huan's expressions changed slightly.
An Lingrong had long known that Shen Meizhuang would be favored. In her previous life, she was also the first to be favored by the emperor.
If she had not fallen into Concubine Hua's trap due to her carelessness, with Shen Meizhuang's abilities, it would have been only a matter of time before she became pregnant, and her promotion to a high position would have been a natural outcome.
It's a pity that Concubine Hua has great power in the palace, and she has "brains" like Cao Qinmo around her. With Shen Meizhuang's background at the time, she naturally could not withstand the other party's deliberate tricks.
In the end, the "fake pregnancy scandal" not only caused Shen Meizhuang's status to collapse instantly, but also made her completely disillusioned with the emperor.
An Lingrong still remembered that the Queen had told her more than once that Shen Meizhuang was not only extremely intelligent, but also had a kind of integrity like a scholar.
Call her arrogant or stubborn, Shen Meizhuang has her own way of doing things.
It's not that the Queen didn't want to win her over at the time, but Shen Meizhuang always refused in various tactful ways.
After becoming disappointed with the emperor, Shen Meizhuang turned her attention to being filial to the empress dowager, serving her and fulfilling her duties as a concubine. As a result, she gained the favor of the empress dowager and remained standing in the palace. Even the queen could not plot against her.
Thinking of this, An Lingrong's eyes revealed a hint of complexity.
In her previous life, she deliberately sent Baoque to inform Shen Meiyu that Concubine Xi was falsely accused of having an affair, which led to Doctor Wen's self-castration, causing her to lose her fetus and eventually suffer from dystocia and hemorrhage. Although she took the opportunity to assassinate Shen Meiyu on the orders of the Queen, she also had her own selfish motives.
At that time, I was extremely dark and could not stand others doing well. At the same time, because I could no longer leave the Queen's camp, I was destined to be the enemy of Zhen Huan and others, so I attacked them by all means.
Now that she has a new life, An Lingrong wants to say goodbye to her past self once and for all.
She and Zhen Huan currently have a good relationship. As for Shen Meizhuang, although she is just an acquaintance with her, because of the relationship with Zhen Huan, at least they will not become enemies.
This is enough.
Coming out of her own thoughts, An Lingrong turned to look at Zhen Huan, who had a melancholy look on her face, and knew that she must be feeling complicated.
This is not to say that Zhen Huan cares about the emperor that much, but An Lingrong knows that Shen Meizhuang and she grew up together and they are as close as sisters. When Zhen Huan heard about this suddenly, she must have mixed feelings.
The good news is that they are now in the same palace and are all concubines of the emperor. If Shen Meizhuang is favored, it will naturally be a good thing for Zhen Huan.
But then again, although Shen Meizhuang was favored, the emperor's action made Concubine Hua hate Shen Meizhuang directly. Isn't this like roasting Shen Meizhuang directly on a raging fire?
Zhen Huan was indeed worried about Shen Meizhuang's situation, and she unconsciously revealed a look of worry at this moment.
"My Lord, are you unhappy?"
Huanbi looked at Zhen Huan like this, a look of concern appeared on her face, and she took the initiative to ask a question.
"Why should I be unhappy that Sister Mei is favored?"
Zhen Huan asked back, then lowered her eyes and said, "Have you got the monthly allowance?"
"Reporting to the young master, I have already brought all of them together with the one for Young Master An."
Liu Zhu nodded and took out two purses, one large and one small.
Since Zhen Huan was a concubine, her monthly allowance was naturally higher than An Lingrong's, so her purse was also bigger.
"Thank you, Miss Liu Zhu." An Lingrong smiled slightly, took the purse from Liu Zhu, and placed it on the table beside her. Then she said to Zhen Huan, "It's been a long time since I last saw Sister Mei Zhuang. It's time for us to go visit her. What do you think, Sister?"
"Of course I should go."
Zhen Huan nodded at first, but then the expression on her face became hesitant again.
When she was in Jingren Palace, she received the emperor's gaze for a long time, which attracted the attention of all the concubines present and made her the target of public criticism.
However, after that, the emperor immediately took Concubine Hua to visit the garden, as if trying to cover up his mistake.
After that, many days passed, and although he visited the six palaces, he never turned over Zhen Huan's name card, as if he had forgotten her again.
It was so peaceful that Zhen Huan actually felt relieved.
According to the rumors brought by Huanbi, Shen Meizhuang is now favored by the emperor and can be regarded as a new noble in the palace. The emperor also asked Shen Meizhuang to follow the queen to learn how to help manage the affairs of the six palaces. Regardless of the real intention behind this move, at least in the eyes of outsiders, this is great favor!
If they went to Xianfu Palace to look for Shen Meizhuang at this time, they would naturally attract attention. Zhen Huan didn't want to cause trouble, nor did she want to add burden to Shen Meizhuang, so she hesitated again.
"Don't worry, sister."
An Lingrong also understood Zhen Huan's concerns, and immediately smiled and said, "We have to meet people sooner or later. We can't hide in this Broken Jade Pavilion forever. Instead of worrying about this and that, we might as well take care of ourselves!"
An Lingrong's words brightened Zhen Huan's eyes, and she felt that the problem that had been bothering her was suddenly solved.
"Sister, you are absolutely right!"
Zhen Huan nodded, and then asked Liu Zhu to help her change her clothes.
She decided to follow An Lingrong's advice and start by taking care of herself!
Since he was concerned about Shen Meizhuang's situation, instead of tossing and turning here in a trance, he might as well go over and ask in person. Not only would he be doing his part, but if anything really happened, having more people would at least mean more help!
"Then I will come visit you another day."
An Lingrong put the volume of poetry given by Zhen Huan back on the bookshelf beside her, but stood up to say goodbye.
"Sister, go pack up too. You and I will go together!"
When Zhen Huan saw that An Lingrong didn't seem to intend to go to Xianfu Palace with her, she understood what she meant, so she took the initiative to invite her.
"Are you sure you want to do this, sister?"
An Lingrong paused and asked Zhen Huan if it was convenient.
Naturally, she didn't mind making this trip, but she was afraid that with her around, Shen Meizhuang would find it inconvenient to talk to Zhen Huan about some "private conversations" between sisters.
"It's not an inconvenience."
Zhen Huan didn't care, but urged An Lingrong to change her clothes and dress up.
"Sister Wan! Where are you going?!"
However, at this moment, a girl's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
The next moment, Chun'er, who had not walked out of her palace for a long time, rushed in directly!
