An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

The emperor promoted An Lingrong to a higher rank. This news was passed on by the eunuch Xiao Xiazi before she returned in person, along with the emperor's reward to An Lingrong.

Because of this, everyone in Suiyuxuan learned the good news early in the morning, which led to Cui Jinxi's congratulations and Baojuan's waiting.

However, not everyone is happy about this.

When An Lingrong heard the clanging and banging sounds coming from the east side hall, the smile on her face deepened instantly.

"My lord, you don't have to take it to heart!"

Baojuan also came over at this time and advised An Lingrong not to argue with Chun'er.

"My sister once said that if you can't take care of everything, then just take care of yourself. Why should I care?"

Faced with the comfort from Baojuan, An Lingrong smiled slightly and took the lead to walk towards her own palace.

She knew that Chun'er had long harbored a grudge against her, but An Lingrong had no intention of making friends with her.

Since they are destined not to be the same kind of people, An Lingrong naturally won't take Chun'er to heart.

"That's true, but you should also pay attention to this!"

Bao Juan helped An Lingrong sit on the chair and began to remove her makeup, jewelry, and hair. She said with some concern, "Although you really don't need to curry favor with Concubine Chun, it's a bit inappropriate if you can't even look good, right?"

Baojuan had previously heard the news from Xiao Xiazi that An Lingrong had been promoted to a higher rank by the emperor and was now a concubine. She was both surprised and delighted.

An Lingrong has not even served the emperor in bed, but she has already been promoted. This is unique in the palace!

Not only that, after that, the three young ladies of Shuiyuxuan all became permanent residents!

Even though Zhen Huan and Chun'er are a little higher than An Lingrong because of their own titles, at least the three of them have the same status, and An Lingrong will be able to face them more calmly in the future.

However, after the young eunuch left, Chun'er rushed to Zhen Huan's main hall immediately. Judging from her attitude, she didn't seem to be happy for An Lingrong at all!

Baojuan saw all this and became worried!

"I won't try to curry favor with her, but there's no need to be hostile to her either. I just need to maintain some politeness on the surface. As for the rest, I can't control what she thinks!"

After washing up, An Lingrong rubbed her aching forehead with her hand and said to Baojuan, "Put away the jewelry the emperor gave me. I'm going to sleep first."

Although it seemed that the emperor just casually promoted An Lingrong to a higher rank, the imperial edict came with several pieces of jewelry, which was considered a reward for An Lingrong.

An Lingrong didn't care about these things and didn't want to wear them on her head to show off, so she asked Baojuan to put them in her dressing table.

"My lord, don't you wear it when you get up early?"

When Baojuan heard this, she was stunned for a moment, but when she saw An Lingrong just smiled and said nothing, she immediately understood.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

An Lingrong is now quite conspicuous among the six palaces.

If she does not restrain herself and instead brazenly wears the jewelry awarded by the emperor and parades around town, she will make enemies for herself.

An Lingrong is not stupid, and she doesn't care about these few pieces of jewelry, so how could she do such an unwise thing?

"My slave understands!"

After Baojuan understood An Lingrong's meaning, she nodded immediately, then put the hairpins and jewelry into the box, and then went to stand by An Lingrong's bed, ready to serve her at any time.

At the same time, An Lingrong's image in Baojuan's heart also changed little by little.

Originally, Baojuan didn't think much of An Lingrong, and thought that it was a great joy that this An Lingrong could be favored by the emperor.

He even wanted to use this to control An Lingrong so that she would obey his guidance.

But after suffering a loss at the hands of An Lingrong for the first time, Baojuan put away those "little thoughts" that she shouldn't have had, and was very careful when serving An Lingrong afterwards, not daring to make any more mistakes.

Nowadays, An Lingrong brings more and more "surprises" to Baojuan, which also makes Baojuan start to consider her own future.

……

Compared to the tranquility in the main hall and the west side hall, the east side hall where Chun'er was was in a state of commotion.

"boom!"

With a crisp sound, a white teacup fell to the ground and shattered.

Chun'er was sitting beside her bed at this moment, her expression slightly distorted, and her eyes revealed obvious resentment.

"My lady, it's late at night, please don't be so angry. If you disturb the other two, I'm afraid there will be unnecessary trouble!"

While cleaning up the broken pieces of porcelain on the ground, the old lady tried to comfort Chun'er, "So what if you get promoted? It's just one level higher. As long as you can please the Empress, you will have no chance in the future."

After hearing this, Chun'er closed her eyes, and the anger on her face faded a lot.

That’s right, Chun’er felt dissatisfied about An Lingrong being promoted to the position of Changzai!

The bottom line is that Chun'er has a sense of pride in her heart.

She was born in the Manchu army and her ancestors were high-ranking officials in the imperial court. Even though her family is now in decline and her father's official position is not high, her family background is still better than An Lingrong's!

But when she entered the palace, she was just a concubine. How could An Lingrong be so powerful?

Chun'er was very angry, so before An Lingrong came back, she ran to Zhen Huan and tried to complain.

However, Zhen Huan no longer had the same kindness towards Chun'er as she did in the past, and she had anticipated that she would be restless, so she had instructed Cui Jinxi in advance that if someone really came, she should just help her to keep them away.

Chun'er was unable to see Zhen Huan and had no place to complain to, so she naturally felt depressed.

He tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep. Just at this time, An Lingrong came back!

When Chun'er heard Baojuan's voice congratulating An Lingrong from outside, she felt furious and the more she thought about it, the more unhappy she became. She picked up a teacup and threw it at her.

Smashing one was not enough to satisfy him, so the clanging sound in the east side hall never stopped.

After listening to the old nanny's advice, Chun'er finally controlled her emotions and said, "Mammy is right. I was impulsive..."

Chun'er's governess had advised her before that in addition to gaining a firm foothold in the Shuyuxuan and clinging to Zhen Huan to please her, she also had to put in some effort to please the Queen!

The Queen is the master of all six palaces. If he can win her favor, it won't be difficult for him to rise to a high position in the court!

Chun'er had made up her mind to please the Queen, but unexpectedly the Queen suddenly fell ill. Although she was asked to serve as the Queen, and the nanny said that this was an opportunity, Chun'er felt uncomfortable because An Lingrong was also chosen.

Now that I think about it, it is just like what Nanny said, there is a long time to come, so why should I be in such a hurry now?

"Okay, my lady, you should go to bed early! You have to get up early tomorrow!"

The old nanny helped Chun'er to bed, and then she was busy for another round and finally cleaned up the east side hall.

……

An Lingrong slept very soundly, but had no dreams that night.

She doesn't care about or worry about what's happening in the outside world, and just wants to be at ease.

After An Lingrong woke up, the first thing Baojuan did was to get her some water to clean her face and rinse her mouth.

"My lady, it's still dark and Concubine Chun has already set out with her men. I think they are going to Jingren Palace!"

While applying ointment to An Lingrong, Baojuan told her what happened in the Sui Yuxuan.

Concubine Chun left very early, not only earlier than usual, but also with no intention of informing Zhen Huan or An Lingrong.

Although Baojuan couldn't see clearly because of the window paper, she could be sure that he didn't hesitate at all and left very quickly and neatly!

"She has an idea in mind, so she has to perform well. Otherwise, how can she gain anything?"

After An Lingrong got up, she asked Baojuan to get herself ready, then she stretched her muscles and said to Baojuan, "Let's go and see our sister."

"My dear, aren't you going to pay your respects to the Queen?"

Bao Juan was stunned when she saw that they had no intention of leaving for Jingren Palace. "If we don't leave now, we will miss the time!"

"Her Majesty the Queen has sympathized with us and exempted us from paying respects these days."

An Lingrong said calmly, "I also brought Concubine Chun with me. But since she was so excited to go to Jingren Palace, the Empress might consider her intentions and let her 'get her wish'."

After saying this, An Lingrong pushed the door and walked out without paying any attention to Baojuan who was in deep thought.

She can't control what others do.

But I have to walk steadily and peacefully to last long!
