An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

Chapter 57 Borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha

An Lingrong's words were so powerful that Concubine Cao, who was standing beside her, looked embarrassed.

Concubine Cao originally thought that An Lingrong should be the easiest to control among the three members of Shui Yuxuan, so she chose to start with An Lingrong, intending to make them "topical figures".

But she never expected that the seemingly taciturn An Lingrong was actually so eloquent, and that she used a trick of "using a little force to achieve a great result" on her, not only easily resolving her difficulties, but also embroiled herself in the charge of "disrespecting the queen"!

Concubine Cao naturally knew that she had to defend herself, otherwise if these words were confirmed, it would be extremely disrespectful to the Queen!

Concubine Hua could ignore the Queen because she was favored by the Emperor, but Concubine Cao did not have such confidence.

"Haha, Sister An is really eloquent. I, as her elder sister, really can't win over her..."

Concubine Cao's eyes rolled, and she immediately made up her mind. A worry appeared on her face. "The Queen is the master of the six palaces, so I dare not be disrespectful to her. At first, the Queen was unwell, so I prayed to the Buddha day and night, blessing her to recover soon. Fortunately, the Buddha had mercy on her, and the Queen really recovered quickly. But Wen Yi caught a cold again. As a mother, I can only take care of the princess in the palace. I was also worried that if I went to Jingren Palace, I would bring the disease to the Queen, which would disturb her health. That's why I didn't pay my respects to her..."

Concubine Cao spoke a lot in a very eloquent manner, but she completely absolved herself of all responsibility.

Anyway, she has her daughter in her hands, and that is her best "shield"!

"Yes, it is inevitable that you will be worried and troubled to take care of the princess. It is also possible that you cannot take care of everything."

As early as when Concubine Cao started talking to An Lingrong, Zhen Huan had already focused her attention on the two of them.

Being as smart as she was, she could naturally sense that the other party had ill intentions, so while Concubine Cao was trying to clear herself of responsibility, Zhen Huan also spoke.

"Sister Wan is right." Concubine Cao smiled implicitly, and then said: "Sisters are young after all, and have never experienced childbearing. For the time being, they cannot understand the hard work involved, but... I think with the blessings of the sisters, they will soon be able to understand this!"

Although Concubine Cao was named Qinmo, she was actually very good at dancing and was very versatile.

Her original purpose in speaking this time was to make Zhen Huan and the other two become the "topic" of discussion among the six palaces again, so that Concubine Hua could take advantage of the issue to attack them, and at the same time she could also show off her own abilities.

However, Cao Qinmo underestimated An Lingrong and wanted to use her as a breakthrough point, but she almost lost both her wife and her army.

This time, when it was Cao Qinmo's turn to talk with Zhen Huan, she performed at her normal level again.

Just two simple sentences successfully changed the expressions of many people around them.

Yes, although Sui Yuxuan and the other two are not in favor at present, as long as they turn over the emperor's cards diligently enough, at their age, why should they worry about not having children?

When they thought of this, the expressions on many concubines' faces became subtle.

"Sis, you have such a wish, and I will keep it in mind."

Zhen Huan naturally sensed Cao Qinmo's "smiling dagger", and her mouth twitched as she thanked her politely.

An Lingrong just gave Zhen Huan a look, indicating that she didn't need to talk to Cao Qinmo anymore.

Cao Qinmo came with bad intentions, but anyone with a little bit of insight could see that.

In this palace, Cao Qinmo depends on Concubine Hua and can be regarded as her "right-hand man" and often acts as her "think tank". All her actions at this time are just to please Concubine Hua.

If I talk to her, I will just walk step by step into the trap that Cao Qinmo has dug in advance, and I won't even realize that I have fallen into her trap!

An Lingrong chose to fight back just now mainly to dispel Cao Qinmo's continued provocation.

If Zhen Huan is still entangled with Cao Qinmo now, then everything she has done before will be in vain!

Fortunately, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong had a tacit understanding with each other. After receiving the hint from An Lingrong's eyes, Zhen Huan guessed what An Lingrong wanted to convey. She didn't intend to argue with Cao Qinmo, so she nodded and then started chatting with Shen Meizhuang next to her.

Cao Qinmo rolled her eyes twice and was about to say something when Xin Changzai, who was sitting behind her, spoke.

"My dear, you should just enjoy the food! On such a nice day, why do you have to say something that could lead to misunderstanding?"

Xin Changzai is well-known for her "straightforwardness" in the palace. She always says what she thinks and is good at judging the situation. Even when she is caught between the factions of Concubine Hua and the Queen, she can still keep herself out.

When she spoke now, she expressed what most neutral people were thinking.

It's a rare opportunity to celebrate the New Year, and it's so lively, but people end up saying sour words, which really ruins everyone's mood!

"Haha...my sister is right!"

Cao Qinmo had suffered several losses at the hands of Concubine Xin before, so she knew how powerful she was. With a glance, she saw Concubine Hua giving her an unhappy look, so she immediately chose to shut up and stop talking.

Once Cao Qinmo became quiet, the atmosphere on the field became much more harmonious.

Yongzheng seemed to be eating and drinking, but in fact his eyes kept turning to the seats where Zhen Huan and the others were sitting, and it was obvious that he was not interested in drinking.

The Queen was seated closest to the Emperor, so of course she could see Yongzheng's gaze clearly and smiled slightly at this moment.

It seems that this Concubine Wan will be carried into the Palace of Tranquil Longevity soon!

Although there was a smile on her face, the queen felt sad in her heart.

Just like that, a lively banquet slowly came to an end amid everyone's different thoughts.

……

"Lingrong, I think this Concubine Cao is very strange!"

On the way back to Sui Yu Xuan, Zhen Huan told An Lingrong her own judgment, "I always feel that what she said just now was not meant for us. Could it be that Concubine Hua was behind it?"

"No, I don't think so." An Lingrong shook her head and said, "Given Concubine Hua's personality, she probably wouldn't do these things. If she really wanted to make things difficult for us, she would directly point out the names, like what happened before, and would not let Concubine Cao build momentum for her. So, I think it's more like Concubine Cao wants to borrow flowers to pay tribute to Buddha!"

An Lingrong knew in her heart that Cao Qinmo was indeed a capable person.

It's just that Cao Qinmo was unlucky. Although she was with Concubine Hua and raised the princess as a noble lady, her own status was not improved much. In addition, her appearance was not outstanding, so she was not favored on a daily basis.

But then again, Cao Qinmo’s greatest strength is his “heart of seven orifices”!

Just imagine, he has been able to stand by Concubine Hua's side for so many years and has even retained the right to personally raise Princess Wen Yi. This shows that Cao Qinmo is by no means an unknown person.

In her previous life, Zhen Huan also cooperated with Cao Qinmo, and with the help of the Emperor who secretly eliminated the Nian family's followers, she finally succeeded in overthrowing Concubine Hua.

At this time, Cao Qinmo was not familiar with Zhen Huan, and she had not yet fallen out with Concubine Hua, so she naturally followed her lead.

If she could strike Zhen Huan down in public opinion, Cao Qinmo could naturally use this as a credit and demonstrate her own abilities to Concubine Hua!
