An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

Originally, An Lingrong and the others had just been called up.

But with the Queen Mother's smiling words, they had to kneel down again.

Although the Queen Mother said this with a smile on her face, as if it was just a joke.

But they knew very well that if Shen Meizhuang gave a bad answer, it might bring them into big trouble!

Fortunately, Shen Meizhuang was calm and composed. She calmed down and replied softly, "Serving the Queen Mother is my duty. How dare I be disrespectful? I was delayed for some reason. That's why I couldn't come to serve the Queen Mother with medicine in time as usual. I hope the Queen Mother will forgive me!"

"That's it..."

The Queen Mother nodded slowly upon hearing this, as if accepting this answer, and then said slowly: "Yes, you are often out and about, serving the Emperor and the Empress, and you have to come back to visit me, so it is naturally not that convenient."

The Queen Mother seemed to be muttering to herself, and she no longer asked the three of them to get up.

Shen Meizhuang now had no idea what the Queen Mother was trying to do, so she naturally became uneasy.

However, the Queen Mother did not order them to exempt themselves from the formalities, so they could only maintain the status quo, otherwise it would be disrespectful.

Compared to Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan who were both feeling uneasy, An Lingrong was undoubtedly the calmest one.

This is not to say that she knows the Queen Mother very well, but from the current situation, it is obvious that the Queen Mother wants to warn them.

Since the Queen Mother has such thoughts, there is naturally no other way but to endure it.

Just as An Lingrong had analyzed before, the Queen Mother knew that Zhen Huan looked very similar to Queen Chun Yuan, but she still chose to summon her. She might have wanted to use Zhen Huan to balance the six palaces.

Anyway, according to the emperor's attitude towards Zhen Huan, Zhen Huan was only one step away from soaring to success.

Now that Hua Fei's family is in power, there are constant disturbances in the six palaces.

It is indeed difficult to check and balance Hua Fei with only one queen.

Although the Queen was the legitimate ruler of the six palaces, the Emperor preferred Hua Fei more than the other two, and Hua Fei also had the backing of Nian Gengyao.

In this situation, the Queen Mother chooses to support the newcomer, which is also helping the Queen!

But whether the queen can understand this level and overcome the hurdle in her heart depends entirely on her own decision.

Based on An Lingrong's understanding of the Queen, she can tell that the Queen is a deep-minded woman who is determined to take drastic measures. However, sometimes she is blinded by her "obsessions" and cannot see the whole world.

"Oh, I was so confused that I forgot you were still kneeling down there. All right, everyone, get up."

While An Lingrong was analyzing the Queen Mother's deeper meaning, the Queen Mother seemed to have just come to her senses and said this.

After she finished speaking, the Queen Mother saw that Shen Meizhuang was about to fall, so she said to Sun Zhuxi, "Why don't you help Concubine Shen and the others up!"

"Yes." Sun Zhuxi knew that the Queen Mother's intention had been achieved, so he stepped forward and helped the three people up one by one.

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your generosity!"

Shen Meizhuang also knew that if she rashly brought An Lingrong and the others to Shoukang Palace, it would very likely cause displeasure to the Empress Dowager, but when they were dealing with Concubine Hua's difficulties before, they used such words to reject Concubine Hua.

In order to avoid any hidden dangers in the future, and also because she really wanted Zhen Huan and An Lingrong to be protected by the Queen Mother, Shen Meizhuang took this risky move.

Even though I was criticized by the Queen Mother, it was still worth it in the end!

"Are you the two attendants of Suiyuxuan?"

After the Queen Mother asked An Lingrong and the other two to stand up, she turned her gaze to them.

"My concubine, Sui Yuxuan, is always here with Zhen Huan. I wish the Queen Mother good health!"

Zhen Huan paid her respects to the Queen Mother using far more rigorous etiquette than that of the general election that day, and there was not a single mistake during the entire process.

The Queen Mother saw what Zhen Huan did and nodded secretly.

Although Zhen was only born in the Han Army Banner, she was truly "blessed" with beauty.

Her gaze paused for a moment on Zhen Huan's face, and the Queen Mother said, "I remember you. When you were selected for the imperial selection, you were calm and polite, unlike the other girls in your batch who lost their manners in front of the emperor. You were also well-versed in poetry and literature, and had talent. No wonder the emperor liked you."

"Thank you for your praise, Queen Mother. I am overwhelmed!"

Faced with such praise, Zhen Huan did not feel complacent at all, but lowered her head even more.

The Queen Mother saw her reaction clearly but made no comment. She turned her attention back to An Lingrong.

"I, your concubine, will always be with An Lingrong. I wish the Queen Mother good health and happiness!"

Like Zhen Huan, An Lingrong's etiquette is also almost perfect, even more fluent than Zhen Huan, making it difficult for others to find fault with her.

The Queen Mother also had some impression of An Lingrong.

She remembered that An Lingrong had already been awarded flowers by the emperor.

However, An Lingrong did not show any obvious disappointment or frustration. Instead, she greeted herself and the emperor respectfully.

At this moment, a butterfly suddenly flew over and stayed on her bun. Finally, the emperor adopted his own suggestion and put An Lingrong's name card back.

Therefore, the Queen Mother still had some impression of An Lingrong.

"I heard from Zhuxi that you and Concubine Wan copied a Buddhist scripture for me. Do you like reading scriptures?"

The Queen Mother knew that both Shen Meiyu and An Lingrong had been favored, so when she faced them, her attitude was obviously more kind than that towards Zhen Huan.

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, although I am not very literate, I know that Buddhist scriptures can guide people to be good. Reading and reciting them on a daily basis will bring great merit. I also heard that the Queen Mother is devoted to worshipping Buddha, so I worked together with Sister Wan to copy two copies of the Diamond Sutra and wanted to present them to the Queen Mother."

After answering the Queen Mother's question, An Lingrong looked at Zhen Huan, then carefully took out two books and presented them with both hands.

"To be free from all forms and to be able to dwell on nothing, it is difficult for you to have a mind."

The Queen Mother spoke in a meaningful tone and gave Sun Zhuxi a look. The latter immediately understood what she meant and took the scriptures from An Lingrong and the others and handed them to the Queen Mother.

The empress dowager opened the two scriptures separately and flipped through them, only to find that the handwriting in the two scriptures was very different. One was elegant and delicate, while the other was smooth and flowing. The personalities of the two people could be seen from the handwriting.

"Yes, they are all good kids."

The Queen Mother praised her, and then said to Zhen Huan: "If you have nothing to do, you don't have to stay in your own palace. You can come to Shoukang Palace often and help me copy scriptures."

Zhen Huan had not expected that the Queen Mother would actually ask her to come over so often. She was stunned for a moment, but it was only after An Lingrong's hint that she came to her senses and said quickly, "Thank you Queen Mother for your kindness. I will obey your order!"

An Lingrong was not too surprised that she was not "favored" by the Queen Mother.

Given the relationship between the Queen Mother and the Empress, the Empress' daily actions would certainly not be hidden from this person.

And since the Queen wants to win her over, the Queen Mother will not go to such lengths.

Besides, I'm afraid that in the Queen Mother's heart, Zhen Huan's "threat" is far greater than her own!

For a person like this, the empress dowager can only keep him under her nose and watch for a while before she can feel a little relieved.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Just as An Lingrong and the others were chatting with the Queen Mother, there was a noise suddenly heard outside.

Following the young eunuch's announcement, everyone was surprised.

The Queen Mother was the first to react, and she said to Sun Zhuxi, "Zhuxi, take Concubine Wan to the storehouse and take out my Duan inkstone for her, so that it will be convenient for her and Concubine An to go back and copy the scriptures!"

When these words were spoken, An Lingrong and Shen Meizhuang both frowned slightly, but for different reasons.
