An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan
Chapter 373: Convenience
There is no wall that is impenetrable, and it was no secret that Concubine Hua was suddenly placed under house arrest.
Therefore, the next day, other concubines in the Old Summer Palace learned about this matter one after another.
"To be honest, when I first heard about it, I thought it was just those little girls down there gossiping!"
Xin Changzai was the first one to find An Lingrong, and her purpose was very simple - simply to gloat over someone else's misfortune.
After all, when Xin Changzai was pregnant, Hua Fei, out of jealousy, tortured her a lot, which made Xin Changzai suspect that the reason for her miscarriage was also because of Hua Fei.
Now that Concubine Hua has fallen into disgrace, and it was all caused by her own actions, this really makes Concubine Xin feel relieved.
"Haha, sister, are you relieved now?"
Facing Concubine Xin who was showing great joy, An Lingrong smiled slightly, motioned Fang Ru to refill her tea, and said, "But to be honest, you can speak freely with me and there won't be any trouble. But after you leave this room, you still have to be cautious..."
Xin Chang has always been outspoken and says whatever he thinks.
An Lingrong also admired her for this, and naturally did not want Concubine Xin to cause trouble for her.
Hua Fei did cause the emperor's dissatisfaction, but for the emperor, he could hate and despise someone, but he could not do the same to others.
Therefore, if someone like Xin Changzai happened to be spotted by Yongzheng, she would most likely get into trouble.
"Thanks for the reminder, sister."
Xin Changzai is straightforward, but that doesn't mean she is a fool.
After An Lingrong's reminder, Xin Changzai immediately understood the implication of An Lingrong's words, and immediately straightened her expression, indicating that she would never say such words in front of outsiders.
At the same time, Xin Changzai took the opportunity to further express her closeness to An Lingrong.
"Haha, that's good."
An Lingrong was of course "a man who could understand the meaning of music by listening to the strings". She pushed a plate of snacks near her closer to Xin Chang and said, "Sister Xin, try this. It's a snack newly made by Aunt Fang Ruo. It's soft and not too sweet. In my opinion, it tastes just right. One more or one less will lose the flavor!"
An Lingrong praised the plate of snacks lavishly, which naturally made Xin Changzai quite curious.
She knew that this Aunt Fangruo was no ordinary person. She had originally served in the imperial court. The reason why she was later given to An Lingrong just proved her special status in the emperor's heart.
So, as soon as An Lingrong finished speaking, Xin Changzai immediately tasted a piece.
As soon as the snack took a bite, it was exactly as An Lingrong had described. However, in Xin Changzai's opinion, it was just a snack and nothing too special.
She thought about An Lingrong's past treatment of people and things, and was sure that she would not do this without a purpose. After thinking back and forth between the two aspects of whether the other party was sincerely recommending her and using the object to describe the person, Xin Changzai was more convinced of the latter.
Is An Lingrong trying to convey something to me?
Feeling a little confused, Xin Changzai cast her eyes towards An Lingrong and said bluntly, "Sister An, you know I'm a 'straightforward person'. I say whatever I want to say, but I'm not very good at making witty remarks. If you have something to say, you can..."
Xin Changzai originally wanted An Lingrong to tell her the truth, but before she could finish her words, she saw An Lingrong frowning, so she couldn't continue.
Xin Changzai did say whatever she wanted to say, but now that An Lingrong had shown obvious emotions, it would be too foolish for her to continue to "speak frankly".
"Sister Xin, don't think too much. I just think that this snack is very suitable for this season, so I invited you to try it. I don't have any other intentions."
An Lingrong said this, but then changed the subject and said, "However, this dessert may look simple, but it is actually not easy to make. The ingredients used to make it are fresh lotus seeds from the Imperial Lake in the Old Summer Palace. After Aunt Fangruo removed the bitter lotus seeds one by one, it was able to taste the way it does now!"
"I see."
After hearing this, Xin Changzai became more and more certain that An Lingrong was trying to hint something to her.
But the more she thought about it, the more confused she felt.
"Summer is almost over, and the lotus flowers have gone from being full of lotus in the lake to slowly withering. Fortunately, there are still many at Sister Wan's place. I'm afraid Sister Xin Changzai hasn't been there yet, right?"
An Lingrong tried several times, but found that Xin Changzai was indifferent, and she couldn't help feeling helpless.
It's not that Concubine Xin and Zhen Huan have no contact at all, but they don't usually have any interaction alone. They only communicate when they meet at some activities.
Shen Meizhuang's previous policy of "increasing revenue and reducing expenditure" had already caused resentment among the palace people, but she herself was completely unaware of it. Instead, she and Zhen Huan were immersed in the joy of being praised. An Lingrong wanted to wake them up, but was afraid of embarrassment.
So, when Xin Changzai came to see her on her own initiative, she immediately thought of letting Xin Changzai act as a "middleman" so as to remind Shen Meizhuang in an indirect way.
However, Xin Chang's reaction was not sharp at this time.
An Lingrong had no choice but to speak more bluntly.
“Oh…I see!”
After An Lingrong's painstaking "reminder", Xin Chang finally understood what she meant and immediately sighed, "I really envy the friendship between the three sisters!"
An Lingrong cares so much about Shen Meiyu and also takes her face into consideration. This is a treatment that Xin Changzai has never enjoyed before. No wonder she is jealous.
On the other hand, Shen Meizhuang and An Lingrong both had royal heirs, so Xin Changzai certainly didn't hesitate to run errands for them.
Being helpful to others means being helpful to yourself. Xin Changzai has already realized a lot about this principle.
"Then all this is thanks to Sister Lao Xinchangzai."
An Lingrong smiled slightly, and did not want Xin Chang to help her "work for nothing", but took out a red gold hairpin, "Sister and I are very congenial, but unfortunately, I don't have anything to show off. This hairpin is just a little token of my appreciation, please don't refuse it!"
Xin Changzai had never thought that she could get "benefits" from An Lingrong. She was stunned at first, but after she reacted, she immediately understood An Lingrong's deeper meaning, so she didn't say anything more, just reached out and took it, saying generously: "Thank you very much!"
Take people's money and eliminate disasters for them.
Although Xin Changzai asked herself if she had such ability, fortunately all An Lingrong needed was for her to use her expertise to "chat" with Shen Meiyu.
For Xin Changzai, this was an easy task.
Xin Changzai did not continue to sit and eat snacks, but turned around and said goodbye. Then she went to Xianyue Pavilion without even returning to her own palace.
