An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

"Oh, I didn't expect something like this to happen!"

In Yonghe Palace, Concubine Xin was invited, and facing An Lingrong, she once again started to complain.

Concubine Xin was not a "newcomer" who had just started out, so she naturally knew how powerful Concubine Hua was.

When the other party dominated the harem, even the queen, who had the support of the queen mother, was helpless, let alone herself.

Originally, the emperor rarely came to Chuxiu Palace to visit her, and she happened to be discovered that the Imperial Household Department treated her differently. At Yongzheng's request, Xin Changzai immediately began to talk about all the bitterness and grievances she had suffered over the years.

However, Xin Changzai never expected that the emperor would be so swift and decisive. He directly sent Huang Guiquan to the Ministry of Punishment and replaced him with a new chief of the Imperial Household Department the next day.

At this time, Xin Changzai also knew that she might have left a very negative impression in Concubine Hua's heart.

Thinking of this, Xin Chang suppressed her uneasiness and thought that as long as she didn't go out and show off, Concubine Hua would not come to her in person.

But An Lingrong was very considerate and took the initiative to invite Xin Changzai.

She knew very well that An Lingrong's current status was far different from what it was in the past, and she had never fought alone in the palace. So she regarded An Lingrong as her "life-saving straw" at this time.

"Madam An! I have always been very cautious. You know me. Please help me out of our friendship over the years!"

In front of An Lingrong, Xin Changzai was no longer the quick-witted and sharp-tongued Changzai who would hit the opponent's weak spot at the slightest disagreement. Instead, she looked pitiful.

Although she has a straightforward personality, her basic skill of reading people's expressions was naturally developed early on.

An Lingrong is no longer the person whom she could casually call "Sister An", so Concubine Xin showed her attitude.

"Don't panic yet."

An Lingrong took the initiative to invite Xin Changzai over because she considered her and Xin Changzai to be "allies" and was ready to give her some good advice.

Concubine Hua would definitely not just swallow this loss.

In her heart, the Queen, Zhen Huan, and even herself, are all great troubles, and she wishes to get rid of them as soon as possible.

However, Nian Gengyao is not in the capital now, and Concubine Hua has lost her power because of her previous actions. She is like a toothless tiger, and even if she is arrogant, she has no way to deal with them.

Therefore, the targets of Concubine Hua's anger would definitely be the concubines of lower status.

Someone like Xin Changzai is undoubtedly a "soft persimmon" who can be easily controlled by him.

An Lingrong asked Fang Ruo to pour a cup of tea for Xin Changzai, signaling her to be patient.

"Sister Xin has always been a person who speaks her mind. This is what the emperor admires most about you. The emperor asked about it before, so you answered truthfully. What's wrong with you?"

An Lingrong said slowly, "Besides, you gave birth to a princess for the emperor, so you have done a great deed. I, a servant, was not good at serving my master, but had other thoughts instead. This is treason. Huang Guiquan also brought this upon himself!"

"Who says it isn't?"

Seeing that An Lingrong's words were all in her favor, Xin Changzai felt as if she had found a soulmate. She immediately nodded heavily and agreed.

"But Concubine Hua's temper...she won't care about these things!"

After agreeing with An Lingrong, Xin Chang thought about her own situation and felt that she had to be on guard.

Concubine Hua was not a reasonable person to begin with, and this time all the Huang Gui rules were abolished, which was not only equivalent to cutting off her arms, but also made Concubine Hua lose face. Concubine Xin did not dare to go to the emperor to express her concerns, so she placed all her hopes on An Lingrong.

"This is easy to handle."

An Lingrong smiled and said, "Sister Xin, you can take the princess to pay respects to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother loves children. She will naturally be very happy to have the princess sitting on her lap. This will also satisfy Sister Xin's filial piety. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?"

"Yes, why didn't I think of that!"

When Xin Changzai heard this, he felt as if his eyes were suddenly opened and his vision brightened.

Yes, she couldn’t go to see the emperor, but she could completely hide in Shoukang Palace under the pretext of “paying respects” to the empress dowager!

The more often he went there, the higher his and the princess' status in the Queen Mother's heart might be.

By then, even if Concubine Hua wanted to take advantage of the situation, she would probably have to consider the Empress Dowager!

Before being reminded by An Lingrong, Xin Changzai had always been of the attitude of "I will not offend others unless they offend me". She just lived her life as usual and never thought of currying favor with the Empress Dowager. However, the current situation forced her to do so and she could not just stand there and watch.

"Thank you, Concubine An, for your guidance!"

Seeing An Lingrong's peaceful appearance, Xin Changzai couldn't help but feel curious, so she said, "Don't be surprised, Your Majesty. I'm just a little curious. Huipin often goes to Shoukang Palace to accompany the Queen Mother, but you..."

Xin Changzai knew that An Lingrong seldom went out, and in this respect, they were really quite similar.

"Everyone has their own preferences. You can't force it."

An Lingrong answered casually, and seeing that Xin Changzai was hesitant to speak, she said, "The Queen Mother favors Sister Huipin because she always puts the Queen Mother first and is extremely filial. Moreover, she knows when to act and when to retreat. With such a personality, she will naturally be happy with her hobbies."

"but I……"

Xin Changzai knew that she was not very good at speaking and had offended many people unknowingly.

It was just because she gave birth to a princess, and her family was not too powerful, and she was not favored by the emperor on a daily basis, so no one usually made things difficult for her.

Now, having been enlightened by An Lingrong, Xin Changzai thought that she could indeed visit the Queen Mother more often to win her favor.

But compared with Shen Meizhuang, Xin Changzai thinks she has no advantages.

"You don't need to worry too much, and you don't need to do anything deliberately. Just take the princess with you, and let the queen mother enjoy playing with her grandchildren."

An Lingrong knew Xin Changzai's character very well. Although she didn't finish her words, her expression had already fully revealed her worries.

After resolving Concubine Xin's "doubts" with a few words, An Lingrong said to her, "Sister Xin, it was thanks to you that you passed on my message in Yuanmingyuan before. If you have nothing to do in your spare time, you can also walk around in our palace more often. We can often interact and take care of each other."

"That's the truth."

An Lingrong's words were equivalent to extending an olive branch, and Xin Changzai immediately understood her meaning.

The two sides were having a pleasant conversation, but at this moment, the palace maid beside Xin Chang suddenly ran in in a panic.

Seeing her like this, Xin Chang frowned for a moment and said, "What happened? How could you be so rude in front of Concubine An!"

It wasn't the first day that the little palace maid had been with Concubine Xin. She was usually very considerate in her actions, but now she looked anxious.

"My lady, please forgive me. Madam An, please forgive me!"

The little maid knelt on the ground, apologized first, and then said anxiously: "Lvhu just came to tell me that Concubine Hua brought many people to Chuxiu Palace! She said she wanted to check something in our palace! Please go back and check it out!"
