An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

An Lingrong, Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang have been friends for a long time.

Since entering the palace, they have been advancing and retreating together, and have worked hand in hand with each other. During this period, they have also faced many difficulties posed by Concubine Hua Nian Shilan. It can be said that they have experienced many ups and downs.

Now, everyone is pregnant, and Shen Meizhuang and An Lingrong have both given birth to their children safely.

She told Zhen Huan and the others that the emperor allowed her to think of a title purely to share her recent situation, not to show off deliberately.

Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang were considerate and knew An Lingrong's character very well. After hearing her words, they all began to think carefully.

"In theory, the titles of concubines should be drawn up by the Ministry of Internal Affairs or the Ministry of Rites, but there are also cases where the emperor grants grace and allows them to choose for themselves."

Shen Meizhuang had helped the Queen manage palace affairs for a period of time, so she was familiar with the various palace rules. While citing past examples, she said to An Lingrong, "Generally speaking, a title can refer to a concubine's own qualities or the impression she gives others. It can also carry the Emperor's expectations of you. Lingrong, you should be careful!"

Because Yongzheng allowed An Lingrong to think of a title herself, tell him about it, and then change it.

An Lingrong had no idea what to do in this regard, so she wanted to seek help from Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan.

Although Shen Meizhuang understood An Lingrong's intention, she still reminded An Lingrong earnestly that she must cherish such a precious opportunity.

Just as she said just now, the titles of the concubines were originally drawn up by a special person and finally handed over to the emperor for decision, or maybe they were chosen by the emperor from the beginning.

Anyway, usually the concubine herself has no decision-making power on this matter.

Regardless of whether the emperor did not want to worry about it himself or just wanted to give An Lingrong such an honor, for An Lingrong, this was indeed a very "decent" thing, and naturally she could not just get away with it.

"Of course I know that..."

An Lingrong nodded, indicating that she understood what was going on.

But then, a helpless smile appeared on An Lingrong's face.

"If I could have thought of it, I wouldn't have to trouble you two sisters!"

An Lingrong sighed, and her expression became bitter.

She is self-aware and knows that she really has no talents.

This is not because An Lingrong herself does not study, but even if she tries hard to read books and learn poetry and songs from Zhen Huan and others, she can never become a dilettante.

Take choosing a title for herself for example. In fact, in An Lingrong's view, as long as it is not the ironic "Oriole" in her previous life, she will be satisfied.

Even An Lingrong herself, whose title is based on her surname, "Princess An" is already pretty good.

However, since the emperor insisted on giving her an invisible courtesy to reward her, An Lingrong had no choice but to accept it with ecstasy.

Originally, this matter should not have been urgent, but Yongzheng seemed to still be concerned about it and had specially asked Su Peisheng to come and ask him about it.

In this case, An Lingrong naturally could not respond casually.

She knew that the emperor was very fond of the talents of Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, so she wanted to seek help from these two sisters.

"Well...we understand what you mean."

Although An Lingrong did not particularly emphasize her "difficulties", both Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang understood her difficulties.

At this point, An Lingrong made a strong request, so they began to think of a suitable title for her.

After much thought, Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang came up with several titles that could be used as reference.

"The Daoist Scripture says, 'Harmony with its light, same with its dust, clear and yet seemingly existent. Harmony can also refer to harmony, happiness, gentleness and modesty.'"

Zhen Huan first said the word "harmony", and then said: "The second is obedience, being gentle and obedient without fighting, so it is close to the Tao!"

"Hey, why do you only use allusions from Taoist scriptures?"

Although they had discussed it before, Shen Meizhuang did not expect Zhen Huan to use the "Tao Te Ching" to explain to An Lingrong, and immediately shook her head helplessly.

In fact, it was not that Zhen Huan intended to do this, but compared to those tongue-twisting poems, she felt that An Lingrong might understand it more easily if she explained it using the meaning of the scriptures.

After all, in her spare time before, An Lingrong would also read Buddhist and Taoist scriptures.

In An Lingrong's own words, chanting scriptures is not only a meritorious deed, but also helps one to keep his mind peaceful and calm.

"I think the word 'Jing' is quite good, but if you are given the title of Consort in the future, I'm afraid it will be confused with Consort Jing."

Shen Meizhuang first mentioned that Jing could be used, and then she shook her head.

An Lingrong is still young and has given birth to a princess. Even if she is no longer favored in the future, she will be more than qualified to become a concubine if she can hold on for a few more years.

"Then how about 'complete'? Complete from beginning to end, you can be a completely happy person!"

"Lin means beautiful jade, and there is also the phrase 'Linlang'. Plus, Lingrong is already proficient in music, so this is not bad!"

Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang were originally asked by An Lingrong to be there to give her advice and discuss appropriate titles.

As they talked, the two of them unconsciously got excited and began quoting from classics and comparing themselves with each other.

Although she knew that they all wanted to choose a title with a beautiful meaning for themselves, An Lingrong still felt a little amused just seeing the two sisters arguing in front of her.

"Alright, alright, sisters, stop fighting!"

An Lingrong waved her hands repeatedly, almost going to pull the two apart, and then said, "The words you two sisters chose naturally have very good meanings. I think it would be better if you two sisters wrote all the titles on paper and then let the emperor decide. What do you think?"

Because An Lingrong thought it was a good idea, and Zhen Huan and Shen Meiyu were holding different opinions, in order to avoid endless arguments, she decided to give the final decision back to the emperor.

"That's fine too."

Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang looked at each other and knew that they would not be able to make any conclusion if they continued arguing here.

Since they couldn't come up with an answer, they might as well just do as An Lingrong said and let Huangdi make the final decision.

"By the way, Lan Xi is being taken care of by the Queen Mother in Shoukang Palace. Lingrong, you can rest assured. I usually go to Shoukang Palace to pay respects to the Queen Mother, and I will also visit the princess for you."

Seeing that the dispute over the title was coming to an end, Shen Meizhuang suddenly remembered that An Lingrong's daughter was still in Shoukang Palace, and immediately told An Lingrong that she would keep it in mind.

"Thank you, Sister Mei."

An Lingrong originally wanted to ask Shen Meizhuang to help take care of her, but before she could say it, Shen Meizhuang took the initiative to mention this matter, and she suddenly felt relieved.
