An Lingrong after rebirth

Chapter 54 Turn over the brand

Seeing An Changzai so calm and composed, Qiu Fang couldn't help but sigh: "The young lady's calm temperament is at least better than others."

An Changzai smiled and said gently: "It's okay, it's not a big deal. I know you are thinking about me, but don't be too nervous."

Her tone was gentle yet firm, making people feel at ease and trustful.

After hearing this, Qiu Fang nodded and said, "My lord, you are right. If I get anxious, please punish me."

She knew that she had behaved inappropriately just now, so she quickly admitted her mistake.

An Changzai gently waved his hand and consoled him, "Forget it, just be more careful next time. I know you are doing this for my own good, so how can I blame you?"

After hearing what An Changzai said, Qiu Fang's nervousness gradually dissipated. She said gratefully, "Thank you for not blaming me, my lady. You are really understanding."

An Changzai smiled and said, "There's no need to be so polite between you and me. I'll need you to take care of me in the future."

Qiu Fang nodded quickly, "Don't worry, my lady, I will do my best."

An Changzai nodded gently, "Well, we still have to stay calm so that we can better deal with various situations."

Qiu Fang nodded in agreement, "My lady is right. I understand."

"Qiufang, how do you think I drew this pattern?"

Qiufang looked over, with a hint of admiration in her eyes, "My young master, you are a good painter."

"Didn't the young lady's previous paintings have been commented on by the emperor?" Qiufang added.

"I just think it looks good!" Qiu Fang smiled and continued, "Then how about my embroidery of a soaring dragon and a leaping tiger?"

Qiu Fang couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw it, "Young Master's embroidery is better than that of the Jiangnan embroiderers. I have never seen anyone with such a good embroidery."

Lian Er smiled confidently, "Speaking of embroidery, Jiangnan embroidery is the most famous! Miss's embroidery is the most famous Su embroidery among all embroidery styles, it can be ranked first!"

"Lian'er is right," An Lingrong said confidently, "Even in the harem, no one can embroider as well as me."

Her voice was clear and firm, as if she was announcing her talent to the world. The sunlight just shone through the windowsill and onto her face, adding a touch of warm light to her smile.

"Lian'er, do you know?" she continued, her eyes gleaming with confidence and pride, "I have absolute confidence in my embroidery skills.

I embroidered every stitch and every thread with my heart, and I believe no one can surpass me."

Lian'er smiled and nodded. She knew that An Lingrong's embroidery skills were indeed outstanding.

Her embroidery works are delicate and exquisite, with every detail handled just right, which makes people marvel.

An Lingrong shifted her gaze away from Lian'er and looked out the window.

The sun shines on the ground through the gaps in the leaves, forming patches of mottled light and shadow.

Lian Er looked at An Lingrong, and a feeling of admiration welled up in her heart. She couldn't help but sigh, "My young lady is so amazing!"

She secretly felt lucky to be able to follow such a smart, witty and talented master. Lian Er thought to herself, the young lady is so outstanding, she must follow the young lady well and not let her down.

Lian Er also felt puzzled and disdainful of those who didn't like the young lady. She felt that they must have poor eyesight and could not appreciate the young lady's advantages and charm. Lian Er secretly thought that those people were really blind and could not see the good of the young lady.

Lian Er knew that An Lingrong was not an ordinary woman, she had a unique temperament and wisdom. Whether in the palace or in other occasions, An Lingrong could show extraordinary talent and decisiveness.

Her beauty is not only in her appearance, but also in her inner world and the way she behaves in the world. Lian Er thought to herself, the young lady is really an amazing person, and she must learn from her and become as good as her.

As for those who don't like the young lady, Lian'er thinks that they may have misunderstandings due to jealousy or prejudice. They have easily made a conclusion about her without really understanding her. Lian'er thought that those people are really ridiculous. They don't see the good of the young lady and just casually evaluate her.

This superficial view made Lian'er feel ridiculous, but it also made her more convinced that only those who truly appreciate can see the value and beauty of the lady.

Lian'er thought to herself that she must accompany the young lady well and let her feel her support and care.

Lian'er decided to stay with the young lady forever and help her solve her problems. She secretly swore in her heart that she must protect the young lady well and let her live a happy life.

As they were talking, a palace maid suddenly came to report that the Queen wanted to see them.

An Chang's heart tightened, but she remained calm. She turned to Qiu Fang and said, "Get ready first, and come with me to meet the Queen later."

Qiufang responded and hurried down to prepare. An Changzai tidied up a little in the room and took Qiufang to the Queen's Palace.

Along the way, she remained silent, secretly wondering why the Queen had summoned her. When she arrived at the Queen's Palace, she saw the Queen sitting in the main hall with a serious expression.

An Changzai stepped forward to pay her respects. The Queen said calmly, "Get up." Then she asked straight to the point, "An Changzai, I heard that you had a conflict with Xia Changzai yesterday. Is that true?"

An Changzai was shocked. She didn't expect the news to spread so quickly, but she still replied calmly: "Your Majesty, I did have some disputes with Xia Changzai yesterday, but it was not a big deal. Please don't blame me, Your Majesty."

The Queen looked at her sharply, "Oh? Was it really just a little dispute?

"Yes, Your Majesty," An Lingrong glanced at the Queen cautiously, and then went on to describe in detail the dispute she had with Concubine Xia, just as she had said in Concubine Hua's palace.

After hearing this, the Queen frowned slightly and said, "You have been wronged, but Concubine Xia has already been punished." There was a hint of comfort in her tone.

An Lingrong quickly lowered her head and said softly, "I understand!" There was a hint of gratitude in her voice, which also revealed her understanding and well-behaved nature.

The queen nodded with satisfaction. "I'm glad you understand. In the future, you should pay more attention to your words and actions in the palace and don't offend people easily." There was a hint of majesty in her eyes.

An Lingrong replied respectfully: "Thank you for your teachings, Her Majesty. I will keep them in mind." A firm look appeared on her face, indicating that she would definitely obey the Queen's teachings.

The queen smiled slightly and said, "Okay, you go down first." She waved her hand gently, signaling An Lingrong to leave.

After paying her respects, An Lingrong slowly walked out of the palace.

For several days in a row, the emperor turned the green card to Shen Meizhuang, which made the other concubines jealous and dissatisfied. After all, who doesn't want to be favored by the emperor?

An Lingrong couldn't help but think that in her previous life, all the nobles and great officials had taken turns to sleep with the emperor, but it was never her turn. It seemed that if she wanted to win the emperor's favor, she couldn't just wait, she had to take the initiative!

Thinking of this, An Lingrong raised her head, looked at Qiufang and asked, "Qiufang, is there any imperial physician in the Imperial Hospital who has a good relationship with you?"

Qiu Fang lowered her head and thought for a moment, then replied, "My lady, Luo Rui, the vice president of the Imperial Hospital, has some friendship with me." She paused, then continued, "When I was working in the palace of the Dowager Concubine, Doctor Luo often came to check on the Dowager Concubine's pulse."

After hearing this, An Lingrong nodded slightly, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes, and said, "Okay, when you are free, go and see if he is on duty. If he is, go and ask him to come over."

Seeing the young lady's order, Qiu Fang quickly agreed and said softly, "It's too late now. I will ask him to come over tomorrow morning."

After saying that, Qiu Fang turned around and prepared to leave, but suddenly stopped, turned back to look at An Lingrong, and said with concern: "My lady, it's very late now, and you are tired all day, you should rest early."

An Lingrong shook her head gently and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'll embroider for a while longer, and this picture of dragons and tigers leaping will be finished soon." As she spoke, she lowered her head and continued to embroider with concentration.

An Lingrong was preparing to embroider a nightgown with a pattern of flying dragons and leaping tigers for the emperor. She thought to herself, "Once I have finished embroidering this nightgown, I can give it to the emperor when I sleep with him.

After a while, Qiufang came back and said again, "My lady, please embroider tomorrow. It's too late. Don't hurt your eyes."

An Lingrong nodded slightly to show her agreement. She did feel a little tired. She had been busy dealing with various things all day and now she could finally relax.

Qiufang went out and told Baoque to bring water for washing, and soon Baoque came in with a basin of water. She put the basin on the table, then took out a clean towel and handed it to An Lingrong.

An Lingrong took the towel and gently wiped her face and hands, feeling the comfort brought by the cool water.

After washing up, Bao Que picked up the basin and prepared to leave the room. When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped.

She looked back at An Lingrong, a hint of hesitation flashed across her eyes, but she finally closed the door gently.

Lian'er came forward and gently untied An Lingrong's hair, letting it fall naturally on her shoulders.

Lian'er helped An Lingrong change into loose pajamas, ensuring that she could sleep comfortably.

After everything was arranged, Lian'er quietly left the room, leaving An Lingrong lying alone on the bed. She closed her eyes, recalling what happened today, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

Qiu Fang asked softly, "Young Master, can't you sleep?"

An Lingrong nodded slightly, her expression revealing a trace of fatigue and irritability. She whispered, "I have been sleeping restlessly lately, and my heart is in a mess."

Qiu Fang said considerately: "My lady, don't worry. Do you need me to massage your shoulders to relax your body and mind?"

An Lingrong hesitated for a moment and nodded, saying in a low voice: "Okay, maybe it will make me feel better."

Qiufang walked to the bed, sat gently on the edge of the bed, then stretched out her hands and began to massage An Lingrong's shoulders.

Her technique was gentle and skillful, with just the right amount of strength, as if she knew exactly how to make An Lingrong feel comfortable.

As Qiufang massaged, An Lingrong's body gradually relaxed, and her originally tense muscles slowly relaxed.

Her breathing became more and more steady, her brows were no longer furrowed, and a hint of comfort appeared on her face.

Qiufang continued to focus on massaging An Lingrong, and felt relieved as she watched her expression gradually relax.

After a while, seeing that An Lingrong's breathing had become completely stable and she seemed to have fallen asleep, Qiu Fang slowly withdrew her hands and stood up carefully.

She walked out of the room very quietly, fearing to wake up the sleeping An Lingrong.

Before leaving, she did not forget to look back at An Lingrong lying on the bed. Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, she gently closed the door with relief and walked out.
