An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

Chapter 402: Offering Sacrifice to the Gods

Concubine Qi had no idea that she was being framed by a minor noblewoman, Cao Qinmo, and had become the topic of conversation for her to please Concubine Hua.

At this moment, Concubine Qi had already followed the Queen back to Jingren Palace.

"Concubine Qi, do you know why I brought you back here?"

In the inner hall of Jingren Palace, the queen sat dignifiedly on the throne, looking at Concubine Qi beside her and asking questions.

"This, I don't know."

Although Concubine Qi is not smart, she is honest.

Like now, she found that the smile on the queen's face was gone, and she instinctively felt that something was wrong, so she naturally did not dare to be smart.

"Well, you are honest."

The Queen was not surprised by Concubine Qi's answer. Instead, she praised her first.

Then, the queen changed the subject and said, "Do you remember what I said to you before?"

"Well, I remember that the Queen asked me to spend more time with Wanpin..."

Speaking of the "tips" from the Queen, even though Concubine Qi had let it go, she still felt unhappy when she thought that as a concubine, she had to rush to curry favor with Zhen Huan.

However, since this was the Queen's request, Concubine Qi had to endure it.

"You have always listened to me, which is why I helped you and your son."

After the initial questioning, the Queen seemed to suddenly have some feelings and expressed some emotion to Concubine Qi.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will never forget the help you have given me and the Third Prince!"

Concubine Qi was a little confused, but seeing that the Queen had said so, all she could do was to follow the Queen's words and continue speaking.

"Ah."

The Queen stared at Concubine Qi, then nodded slowly, and then said, "Just forget what I said before!"

"what?"

In response to the Queen's words, Concubine Qi nodded subconsciously at first, but then she realized something was wrong, so she widened her eyes and turned to look at the Queen.

Seeing Concubine Qi's surprise, the Queen sighed and told her the Queen Mother's instructions.

Of course, the Queen Mother's original intention was to warn the Queen, and the Queen would definitely not repeat those meaningful words verbatim.

And even if the Queen was willing to talk about it, Concubine Qi would definitely not understand it. It would be better to just skip it and not waste her words.

"In short... the Queen Mother now only hopes to see Huipin and the others give birth to the royal heir smoothly. She doesn't care about anything else and won't allow others to interfere. Of course, I have to consider this too. You should be more obedient. This will always be beneficial."

"Yes, thank you for your guidance, Queen. I understand."

Even if she had many questions in her mind that she wanted to ask, the Queen had already said so much, and no matter how reckless Concubine Qi was, she knew that whether she asked or not would not have much impact on the whole matter.

After all, the Queen had already made it clear before. Now the Queen Mother wanted to protect the pregnancy of Zhen Huan and others, so she asked the Queen to warn herself and it would be best to put away those "little thoughts".

Yes, in Concubine Qi’s view, the words of the Queen Mother conveyed to her were a “warning” to her.

The purpose was nothing more than worrying that she might be detrimental to Shen Meizhuang and others. In order to solve the problem once and for all, he simply let the Queen make it clear.

Naturally, Concubine Qi was quite unhappy about this.

However, Concubine Qi was used to being cowardly and was submissive even in front of the empress, let alone the empress dowager who was more powerful than the empress.

"You don't have to be too discouraged. No matter how others view you, in my heart, you are the noble mother of the Third Prince. As long as you listen to me, I will naturally help you and your son."

The Queen knew Concubine Qi's character very well, which was why she deliberately said something that would greatly shock the other party.

Only at this time can she penetrate into the other person's heart with a "warm" attitude, and at the same time it is convenient for her to further win over Concubine Qi.

"Thank you, Queen!"

As expected, Concubine Qi had never thought about whether the Queen's motives were pure. When she saw that the Queen was still thinking about her, she was instantly moved.

……

Regardless of what everyone was thinking in their hearts, after An Lingrong and others were promoted, the entire harem showed an extremely strange "calmness".

Originally, Concubine Hua would definitely not be so obedient and content with the status quo.

However, her biggest supporter, her brother Nian Gengyao, once again led his troops to fight because of the emperor's decree.

Although this is a good thing for the Nian family, it can enable them to achieve great success and take their glory to a higher level.

But in Concubine Hua's view, compared with all the glory and wealth, she hoped more that her brother could live in peace.

"I only hope that the Bodhisattva will bless you and that your expedition will go smoothly and that you will return triumphantly!"

In the small Buddhist temple of Yiku Palace, Concubine Hua knelt on a cushion, and kowtowed to the Bodhisattva and prayed earnestly, hoping that the Bodhisattva would bless her brother.

"Don't worry, Concubine. The general is invincible and will surely return triumphantly soon!"

Song Zhigui was always beside Concubine Hua and always said things that would make Concubine Hua happy.

"I hope so."

Concubine Hua nodded, burned incense, and then left the small Buddhist temple with the help of Songzhi.

"I don't know why, but I've been feeling uneasy these past two days, as if something is going to happen..."

The person that Concubine Hua trusts the most now is the maid Song Zhi who grew up with her. Now that they are alone with each other, she couldn't help but tell Song Zhi about her inner feelings of the past two days.

"Your Majesty, please don't let your imagination run wild!" Songzhi looked nervous, then suddenly her eyes lit up, and she said, "Oh! I understand! Your Majesty must be in a bad mood because she has been worried about the general these days and has been overworked!"

"Is that true?"

Concubine Hua had reservations about this statement.

However, Songzhi could only make this level of speculation at best.

As for more associations, even if Songzhi thought of them, she would never dare to say them out loud.

after all……

Ever since Concubine Hua became "Concubine", the Emperor hasn't come to Yikun Palace for a long time.

But can these things be said?

The answer is of course obvious.

Songzhi didn't want to cause trouble for her master, so she wisely chose to skip this topic.

"My Lady, the Queen has sent someone here!"

Just as Concubine Hua was lost in thought, Zhou Ninghai limped in and brought her this news.

"Why would the Queen want to see me for no reason?"

Concubine Hua curled her lips, her eyes showing no dislike for the Queen.

After becoming a royal concubine, she naturally had more capital to compete with the queen.

Because of this, during this period of time, the entire harem seemed peaceful and harmonious.

But that's just an appearance!

In fact, the open and secret struggles between Concubine Hua and the Queen have never ended!
