An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan
Chapter 35: Concubine Qi Gains Power
The Queen's sudden outburst caught everyone in the palace by surprise.
At the same time, Jianqiu, under the order of the Queen, asked An Lingrong and Chun'er to go and take care of the patient.
As soon as she finished speaking, An Lingrong could feel countless eyes flying towards her and Chun'er beside her.
Many concubines were puzzled as to why the Queen would only let newcomers like them serve her this time, and their eyes towards An Lingrong and the others also changed significantly.
"Only Chun Changzai and An agreed to serve the queen?"
Obviously, Concubine Qi also had great doubts about this, and she started asking Jianqiu about it.
However, when An Lingrong looked at Concubine Qi's expression, she felt that there was more to her thoughts than just that.
Concubine Qi must have wanted to question Jianqiu why even the maids and maids were chosen, but she, as a concubine, had no chance to enter.
But she still had a bit of rationality, and knew that if she asked this question, she would most likely lose both face and money. At that time, the situation would be even uglier!
"Reporting to Concubine Qi, the Queen said that it is almost the end of the year and there are more and more things to do in the palace. It is not possible to rely on Concubine Hua alone to help manage the six palaces. So, she hopes that Concubine Qi can lead Noble Lady Shen and Noble Lady Fucha to help Concubine Hua share more worries."
Jianqiu smiled and dropped another bombshell to everyone, then explained again: "So the Queen chose Chun Changzai and An Da Ying for this reason."
Although Jianqiu was only conveying the Queen's order, when everyone heard this, they were not surprised as to why both the maids and the concubines were able to serve the Queen.
Compared to this, Concubine Qi, who has been authorized by the Queen, is probably about to compete with Concubine Hua!
Although Hua Fei's power to assist in managing the six palaces was granted by the Emperor and she was deeply loved, there was one thing that Hua Fei could not compare to Qi Fei, and that was that she had no children!
Offspring, this is the most important thing in the palace!
In the past, because Concubine Qi was not favored, even with the Queen's support, she was still inferior to Concubine Hua, who was in charge of the palace affairs.
But things are different now!
The queen was ill, so she granted Concubine Qi palace power and directly assigned her two assistants, which was undoubtedly a great help!
The more Concubine Qi thought about it, the happier she became. Her face became rosier at a visible speed. Then she said to Jianqiu in a deep voice that she had never used before: "Go and report to Her Majesty the Queen. I will definitely not let Her Majesty down!"
After Concubine Qi made this statement, Shen Meizhuang, who was originally talking to Zhen Huan, suddenly looked helpless.
She and Noble Lady Fucha looked at each other and had to step out of the line, echoing loudly: "I will obey the Queen's order!"
"I will report the truth to Her Majesty the Queen."
Jianqiu nodded to Concubine Qi and the other two, and said, "Okay, the rest of the ladies please go back!"
Except for An Lingrong and Chun'er who were left behind, the rest of the people, upon hearing what was said, all bowed from a distance in the direction of the main hall of Jingren Palace, and then dispersed in twos and threes, preparing to return to the palace.
"Noble Lady Shen, Noble Lady Fucha, don't be in such a hurry to leave."
At this time, Concubine Qi stopped Shen Meizhuang and the other two who were about to go back and said, "Concubine Hua is late again this time. I think she can't predict the future. If she knew in advance that the Queen was ill, it must be because the palace is busy now. So let's go to Yikun Palace to see Concubine Hua, which can be regarded as sharing her worries!"
An Lingrong raised her eyebrows instantly when she heard Concubine Qi's words. She then turned her gaze to Shen Meiyu and the others. As expected, she could see the helplessness of each other from their expressions.
So, Concubine Qi really dared to open a dyeing room as soon as she was given a little color!
Having just received authorization from the Queen, she instantly became elated.
Now that Concubine Hua hasn't come yet, she is taking the initiative to go to her door. It is obvious that she has been suppressed by Concubine Hua for many years, so she wants to get back at her as soon as she gets the chance!
"Empress Qi, even though the Empress asked you to help relieve Empress Hua's worries... but there is no need for you to go so early. Perhaps Empress Hua has some other reason that delayed her."
Jianqiu was also stunned by Concubine Qi's "big words". After she came to her senses, she quickly tried to dissuade her in a tactful tone.
She was naturally aware of the Queen's intentions. Supporting Concubine Qi was indeed to restrain Concubine Hua, but her main purpose was to cause trouble for Concubine Hua.
After all, with Concubine Qi's ability, even with Shen Meizhuang and Noble Lady Fucha as helpers, the Queen did not expect her to be able to do anything to Concubine Hua.
She is "sick" now, and as the New Year is approaching, there will be more and more things happening in the six palaces. Since it is inconvenient for her to come forward, in order to prevent Hua Fei from being the only one to stand out, she naturally has to find some people to prevent her from being "exhausted".
But if Concubine Qi takes the initiative to approach now, she will probably be dealt with by Concubine Hua soon!
By then, wouldn't the Queen have to come out again despite her "illness"?
Jianqiu understood her master's intentions, so she naturally couldn't let Concubine Qi sabotage her.
But Concubine Qi didn't realize that Jianqiu was reminding her after hearing this. Instead, she was full of confidence and said, "Just serve the Queen well. I will take care of the rest and won't let the Queen worry about it!"
"I..." Jianqiu was speechless. She took a few deep breaths, but saw Concubine Qi leaving with her people. She could only suppress her emotions and walked inside with An Lingrong and Chun'er.
Before leaving, An Lingrong looked back at the palace gate exit and saw Zhen Huan and others standing outside, so she mouthed to them, "Don't worry!"
"How can I not be worried?"
Zhen Huan naturally understood An Lingrong's words, but at this moment she was twisting the handkerchief in her hands with her brows tightly furrowed.
At the moment, An Lingrong was called away by the Queen to tend to the sick, and Shen Meiyu was taken away by Concubine Qi to find trouble with Concubine Hua. The situations of the two good friends were full of unknowns, but she could do nothing about it. This made Zhen Huan like an ant on a hot pan, feeling extremely anxious.
"Forget it, go back to the palace!"
Zhen Huan also knew that she had no other choice now. After a period of hesitation, she decisively chose to return to the palace to ask Cui Jinxi.
Cui Jinxi is an old veteran in the palace, maybe she knows some way to help Meizhuang and the others!
……
"Your Majesty, Miss Chun and Miss An have arrived."
Inside the inner hall of Jingren Palace, the queen was lying on an exquisite golden nanmu bed. At this moment, several bright yellow silk curtains were hanging down, hiding her face.
An Lingrong and Chun'er knelt on two cushions not far from the Queen, and greeted her respectfully.
"Your Majesty, the Queen, I pay my respects to you. I hope that you will recover soon and be in good health!"
When faced with Jianqiu's report, the Queen did not react at all, as if she was still asleep.
But after An Lingrong and the others paid their respects, the Queen's voice slowly came.
"No need to be polite, please stand up..."
The queen's voice was a little weak, and it was obvious that she was not feeling well.
However, An Lingrong understood the Queen and knew that she had many abilities.
Even if the queen was originally healthy, as long as this lady wanted, she could naturally cause a headache.
An Lingrong stood up obediently and waited for Jianqiu's next instruction.
This was the first time in her life, but she had done this kind of thing countless times in her previous life, so she was naturally familiar with it.
In comparison, Chun'er undoubtedly did not understand the procedure at all. After she stood up, she actually reached out to lift the curtain!
Chun Er's action instantly changed Jian Qiu's expression, and she quickly shouted, "Chun Chang Zai, don't be rude!"
