An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan
Chapter 405: Even though it’s late, it’s still here
Cui Guo had no way of refusing Concubine Qi's request.
Therefore, after some hesitation, Cuiguo was forced to agree.
Having said that, even though Cuiguo is the smartest maid around Concubine Qi, it does not mean that she is truly wise and decisive.
Therefore, it was extremely difficult for Cuiguo to carry out Concubine Qi's orders.
Not to mention that Cuiguo had been monitoring the movements of Concubine Hua and others with difficulty. Concubine Hua, who was now the "number one" in the harem, was only happy for two days before she received a piece of news that made her angry.
It turned out that the reason why Nian Gengyao was ordered by the emperor to lead troops to fight at this time was because the northwest, which had been conquered before, was ready to move again, and was secretly colluding with other restless forces and starting to make trouble again.
For this purpose, Yongzheng specifically appointed Nian Gengyao, the most brave and warlike man, to go into battle.
Originally, this was just an easy task for Nian Gengyao and there was nothing wrong with it.
However, the general practice of military strategists is usually to send food and fodder before troops move forward.
As luck would have it, when the food and supplies supporting Nian Gengyao were passing through Songyang County, something went wrong.
And this Songyang County happened to be the place ruled by An Lingrong's father, An Bihuai.
"Haha, my daughter seduces her master, and my father also comes to oppose my Nian family. Good, this is really great!"
In Yikun Palace, when Concubine Hua learned the news, her face instantly turned gloomy.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
Cao Qinmo was Concubine Hua's "military advisor", so he was naturally present at this time.
She heard the anger in Concubine Hua's tone and knew that given her personality, she would not easily let go of An Lingrong, who was also in the palace.
However, then again, Concubine An is no longer the same person she used to be. She has an imperial heir in her belly, so no matter how angry Concubine Hua is, she has to take this into consideration!
Cao Qinmo keenly sensed the "room" for maneuver, and with a turn of his eyes, he immediately began to fan the flames.
"It is natural for the Imperial Concubine to be considerate of her brother, but... Concubine An is pregnant after all, so you should think twice before acting!"
"What? Just because she's pregnant with a dragonborn, I can't touch her!"
Slapping the armrest of the chair fiercely, Concubine Hua said coldly: "Concubine Cao, this is not the first day you follow me. Go, call Concubine An over to me and tell her that I have something to teach her!"
"Ah... let me go?"
Cao Qinmo did intend to sow discord, hoping to provoke Concubine Hua's anger and use her to deal with An Lingrong and others.
As a result, after Concubine Hua finished speaking, Cao Qinmo suddenly felt that she had shot herself in the foot.
Concubine Hua really didn't want to let it go, however, she specifically asked her to go. No matter what the final result was, An Lingrong would definitely hate her!
"Why? Do you have any other opinions?"
Concubine Hua glanced at Cao Qinmo coldly, forcing her to shut up.
That’s right, Concubine Hua did it on purpose.
Although she can be instigated, it doesn't mean she is completely brainless.
Cao Qinmo's words clearly seemed to be for her own benefit, but were actually adding fuel to the fire. How could Concubine Hua not be alert?
However, Concubine Hua did want to punish An Lingrong to help her brother vent his anger.
In this case, directly asking Cao Qinmo to call for help and thus offending An Lingrong would have no effect on Concubine Hua.
……
"Lingrong! Something bad has happened!"
At the same time, after receiving the news, Zhen Huan hurried to Yonghe Palace to inform An Lingrong.
"Sister? What happened? Why are you so flustered?"
When Zhen Huan came over, An Lingrong was reading a book.
As a result, she heard Zhen Huan say such words as soon as she entered the room, so she frowned, raised her eyes to look at where Zhen Huan was, and said with concern: "Sister, don't be anxious, just say it slowly if you have anything to say!"
"Hey. Jinxi, you guys go out first, I have something to talk to Lingrong."
Zhen Huan had been running all the way here, so her breathing was unstable. She took a long breath and finally calmed down.
After regaining her composure, Zhen Huan immediately expelled Cui Jinxi and other irrelevant people.
When only herself and An Lingrong were left, Zhen Huan said with a worried look on her face, "I heard that the food and military pay of the soldiers led by Nian Gengyao were withheld when they passed through Songyang!"
When saying this, Zhen Huan's tone was also cautious, fearing that An Lingrong would become upset.
However, the expected panic did not appear at all, and even An Lingrong's expression was very calm.
"Did the food and fodder get lost? Or was the money embezzled?"
An Lingrong put down the half-read book in her hand and said calmly, "My father was involved in this, right?"
"Lingrong, don't be too nervous, things haven't developed to the worst yet!"
Seeing this, Zhen Huan thought that An Lingrong was too anxious, which led to her cold reaction. At this time, she wanted to comfort her: "The news is not accurate... It's just vaguely not good, but I think that after the emperor comes back, we can always make long-term plans. What we really need to care about right now is Concubine Hua!"
Zhen Huan's mother's family is in the capital, and her father was originally the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple. Now, because of Yongzheng's favor for him, his official position has been promoted.
Because of this, Zhen Huan's grasp of some of the outside world's movements is naturally more accurate than An Lingrong and the others.
Normally, even if Zhen Huan knew about something like this, she should have kept it secret.
But Zhen Huan did the opposite. The first thing she did when she found out about it was to run over and tell An Lingrong. Naturally, she had her own considerations behind this.
She knew that Concubine Hua was a vengeful person. Now that she had become a noble concubine and there was no one to check and balance her in the palace, she was able to do whatever she wanted.
As luck would have it, An Bihuai was involved in an incident that offended the Nian family. No matter what role An Bihuai played in that incident, it would become the best reason and entry point for Concubine Hua to blame An Lingrong.
Rather than letting An Lingrong find out about this from others, or Concubine Hua coming to hold her accountable while An Lingrong is still kept in the dark, Zhen Huan thinks it would be better to tell An Lingrong herself.
If An Lingrong cannot bear the blow, I will be there by her side to provide her with comfort and support!
However, although Zhen Huan had planned well, An Lingrong's reaction was far beyond her expectations.
"Thank you for your kindness, sister. I know what to do now."
An Lingrong did not interrupt Zhen Huan when she was speaking earlier.
Only after the other party had finished speaking did An Lingrong reveal a faint smile.
"I know that you care about me, so you came here specially, but please rest assured, this matter will not affect me."
"what?"
Zhen Huan was a little confused. Seeing An Lingrong's serious expression, she was suddenly filled with doubts.
