An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan
Chapter 4: Baojuan Again
Under the gaze of Aunt Fangruo, An Lingrong, Zhen Huan, Huanbi and Liuzhu were guided by two young eunuchs and walked into the palace gate.
It turned out to be Sui Yuxuan!
At this moment, although An Lingrong looked calm on the surface, her heart was actually in turmoil!
She never imagined that she would be assigned to Sui Yuxuan together with Zhen Huan!
According to her memories from her previous life, she should have been assigned to the Yanxi Palace together with Noble Lady Fucha and Xia Dongchun!
However, Aunt Fangruo would definitely not be wrong. She said so just now, which only meant that her residence had really been changed.
But who did it?
Is it the queen?
Or Concubine Hua?
The Queen is in charge of the affairs of the six palaces, so she is naturally qualified to determine the residence of the concubines.
But at this time, An Lingrong recalled an incident from the past.
In her previous life, An Lingrong was assigned to the Yanxi Palace, while Zhen Huan lived in the Sui Yuxuan.
Later, she became dependent on the Queen and once heard the Queen say that the palace she had originally arranged for Zhen Huan was Chengqian Palace. Not only was the palace magnificent, it was also close to the Yangxin Palace, making it a perfect residence.
But later, because Concubine Hua interfered, Zhen Huan was sent to Sui Yuxuan.
However, the emperor had the intention, and even though the road was far, he did not need to go there in person. But how could anyone stop him from doting on Zhen Huan!
So now that I have been transferred to the palace, was it also Concubine Hua's doing?
Layer upon layer of questions lingered in An Lingrong's mind, making her appear calm, but in fact she was complicated.
"Master An, watch your step!"
At this moment, Liu Zhu's reminder came to her ears, which made An Lingrong come back to her senses.
If it were her in her previous life, she would probably think too much about it and think that Zhen Huan was deliberately looking down on her.
But now An Lingrong doesn't care about so many insignificant details. As for whether Zhen Huan's kindness is out of pity or something else, it doesn't matter.
"Thank you." An Lingrong nodded slightly, and at the same time, she took a wrong step to avoid the slightly uneven brick under her feet.
Unlike Zhen Huan who brought her own maid into the palace, An Lingrong did not have a personal maid. In order to prevent An Lingrong from walking alone and feeling lonely, Zhen Huan asked Liu Zhu to follow An Lingrong so that she would not appear too lonely.
An Lingrong accepted Zhen Huan's kindness calmly.
Anyway, Zhen Huan's kindness will bring benefits to herself, so why should she reject it?
"Sister An, what's wrong with you?"
When Zhen Huan heard the two people talking, she slowed down her pace and waited until An Lingrong caught up with her before asking with concern, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, but I heard from Aunt Fangruo that newly-arrived concubines like us would be arranged to live in the six east and west palaces, but now my sister and I have been assigned to this Suiyuxuan..."
An Lingrong saw Zhen Huan's puzzled expression, so she lowered her voice and whispered, "I saw Aunt Fangruo's expression earlier, and it seemed that something was not right!"
An Lingrong told Zhen Huan about this matter, on the one hand to hint to Zhen Huan that Shuyuxuan was not a good place, and on the other hand to see if Zhen Huan had noticed Aunt Fangruo's previous abnormality.
"Yes..." Zhen Huan thought for a moment, then laughed, "It's already been decided. It's useless for you and me to speculate. Let's just go with the flow!"
Things will work out when the time comes. Zhen Huan also felt confused about her future path in the palace.
It was impossible for her to not be terrified, but facing the equally "timid" An Lingrong, Zhen Huan did not want An Lingrong to worry about this anymore, so she pretended to be relaxed and comforted her: "You and I are both imperial concubines with titles and titles, and we will never be sent away to a random place!"
"Yes."
Seeing Zhen Huan asking her to relax, An Lingrong nodded slowly in agreement, but she was still sighing in her heart.
So what if it’s canonized?
One is a Changzai, the other is a Yingying. Even though Zhen Huan has a title, they are both at the lowest level in the palace!
But it's not a big problem. Even if Zhen Huan lives in seclusion in Suiyuxuan, the emperor will never forget her just because of her face!
It seems that Queen Chunyuan is really a blessing or a curse for Zhen Huan.
However, An Lingrong knew that the reason why Zhen Huan was so favored before she became a nun in Ganlu Temple was mainly because of this face!
An Lingrong and Zhen Huan each had their own thoughts, but they stopped talking.
Led by two eunuchs, they walked for a long time, and after passing through most of the Western Six Palaces, they finally arrived at the Sui Yuxuan.
"This is the Suiyu Pavilion where Changzai and Yingying the young lady live!"
The two young eunuchs signaled to the people inside to push open the palace gate, and at the same time bowed to Zhen Huan and An Lingrong.
"Thank you, both eunuchs."
With just one look from Zhen Huan, Huanbi immediately understood. She stepped forward, took out the reward money from her purse and gave it to the two young eunuchs.
Being in the palace, one not only needs to be sharp-eyed and wise, but also needs to have real money on hand, so that one can manage things up and down and not be bullied by villains!
As the legitimate daughter of the Zhen family, Zhen Huan naturally received a lot of personal allowances from her mother before entering the palace.
In contrast, An Lingrong could only smile bitterly when she saw this scene.
She had been in the palace for so long in her previous life, how could she not understand all these twists and turns?
But I have the desire but not the money!
An Bihuai was originally just a small businessman selling spices. Later, he relied on his wife to make embroidery and saved money to donate to become an official. He was a stingy person and only cared about taking a concubine even if he had money.
An Lingrong didn't even have a decent maid, and the money she had was even less.
This time when she and Aunt Xiao went to Beijing to be selected, she only brought a total of thirty taels of silver with her.
This money was all given by An Bihuai who was very stingy!
He had already spent more than ten taels of silver on staying in the inn and daily expenses, and now the remaining money was not enough for rewards and squandering.
As a concubine, her annual salary was only thirty taels of silver.
Fortunately, Zhen Huan was very generous and knew An Lingrong's predicament, so she certainly wouldn't let An Lingrong pay as well.
The two young eunuchs received a reward from Zhen Huan that was far higher than usual. Seeing that An Lingrong was indifferent, they instantly understood what Zhen Huan meant and retreated obediently.
"Sister, let's go in."
Zhen Huan stepped forward and took An Lingrong's hand. Seeing that she had just come to her senses, she smiled and said, "Now that you have entered the palace, there is no need to think too much about the past."
"Thank you, sister." An Lingrong nodded.
The two sisters walked into Suiyuxuan hand in hand, only to see a large group of people kneeling in the yard.
"The two young ladies must be the new ladies Zhen and An!"
The leading eunuch was big and strong, with a smile on his fat face. "I am Kang Luhai, the eunuch in charge of Suiyu Pavilion. I am here to meet the two young ladies!"
As he saluted, the young eunuchs following behind him followed suit.
As soon as the words fell, another woman's voice was heard.
"I am Cui Jinxi, the head maid of Suiyu Pavilion. I am here to greet the two young ladies!"
The middle-aged woman at the side also bowed down with several palace maids.
An Lingrong looked at this scene and felt deeply moved.
After all, Zhen Huan was someone who left an impression in the emperor's heart. Not to mention the commotion she caused during the selection, even if she was moved to the Sui Yuxuan by Concubine Hua, the queen was still able to compensate her in invisible ways.
Take the eunuchs and palace maids who served as an example, there was originally a fixed number for them.
However, the Sui Yu Xuan where Zhen Huan lived was not considered a proper palace among the six east and west palaces. In addition, she did not have a superior of higher rank, so naturally, the Sui Yu Xuan was centered around Zhen Huan.
Therefore, even though Zhen Huan was just a concubine, she could enjoy the same treatment as the head eunuch and the head palace maid.
This is also a little benefit that the Queen gives to Zhen Huan. As for whether it is in accordance with the rules?
Since Concubine Hua can move people here, the Queen will naturally have a way to deal with it.
Moreover, if the Emperor favors Zhen Huan in the future, then the Queen's actions today will be tantamount to gaining a great reputation in the Emperor's heart!
An Lingrong was thinking this in her heart, and when she glanced out of the corner of her eye, she saw two palace maids walking towards her.
At this time, Zhen Huan had finished greeting Cui Jinxi and others. Seeing An Lingrong standing alone, she was about to go up to her and talk to her, but Cui Jinxi had already understood what Zhen Huan meant.
"Please allow me to introduce you to Miss An. This is the palace maid Baojuan, who serves Miss An."
As soon as these words were spoken, An Lingrong's eyes changed, and then her gaze instantly fell on the palace maid who was standing behind the crowd.
Precious cuckoo.
Haha, it’s Baojuan indeed!
Who would have thought that behind this seemingly honest face, there is a heart as vicious as a snake!
Cui Jinxi said softly, "According to the palace rules, the Ministry of Internal Affairs can assign two maids to the Changzai lady, while the Yingying lady can assign one maid."
"Thank you, aunt." An Lingrong nodded to Cui Jinxi, and then said to Zhen Huan: "Sister, please go to the palace first. I will come to talk to you after I have packed up."
"Okay." Zhen Huan smiled and nodded, and then, surrounded by Cui Jinxi and others, she walked into the main hall of Sui Yuxuan.
"My lady, I will take you to the side hall!"
Baojuan also came forward at this time, trying to show her consideration in front of An Lingrong.
"Yeah." An Lingrong responded lightly, then narrowed her eyes and looked into the distance, only to see the bright sunlight.
The palace has changed, but the person still came.
It seems that the queen may still have such thoughts.
That was fine. She wanted to see what tricks the Queen would use if she didn't take the bait this time!
