An Lingrong is reborn, the reorganized team is killing like crazy
Chapter 196 Advice
An Lingrong looked at the emperor and saw inquiry and suspicion in his eyes. Things that she had not understood before seemed to suddenly become clear to her.
In her previous life, she could not understand why the emperor would dislike Zhen Huan just for a pair of Chun Yuan's old clothes. She had thought that it was because of her that Concubine Hua was forced to death.
But now it seems that it is not entirely true...
Zhen Huan in front of me is too bold. She really dares to talk about the affairs of the court. Isn't she really afraid that the emperor will turn against her? If a big hat is put on her one day, it will not be fun...
"Then don't I have to swallow this humiliation?!" The emperor's tone was not very good, and he looked at Zhen Huan steadily.
If Zhen Huan looked up at this moment, she might be able to sense the emperor's displeasure, but she did not look up, she just lowered her head and said:
"In order to quell the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, Emperor Jing of Han had to kill Chao Cuo. In order to revive the Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu had to endure the killing of his own brother. In order to stabilize the government, he could not enthrone his beloved Yin Lihua as empress, and could only enthrone Guo's daughter. A real man can bend and stretch. The emperor endured the pain for a while so that he could make plans for the court for eternity. This is not cowardice, but a way of governing by bending himself."
After Zhen Huan finished speaking this time, the Emperor straightened his body, leaned back, and looked at Zhen Huan with squinted eyes.
An Lingrong didn't dare to say anything and looked at Concubine Duan, but Concubine Duan didn't dare to look at An Lingrong. An Lingrong smiled lightly and didn't say another word...
"Wanpin is indeed knowledgeable, please get up..." After a long time, the emperor retracted his gaze, turned the rosary in his hand, and spoke.
Zhen Huan looked up but did not stand up. She continued, "In order to stabilize the harem, please ask the emperor to make Concubine Hua a noble concubine. Only then will it be complete."
When these words were spoken, An Lingrong raised her eyebrows, but her heart was calm. However, Concubine Duan looked at Zhen Huan with surprise.
Upon hearing this, the emperor looked at Zhen Huan deeply again and nodded.
"You all leave first, let me think about it." The emperor said, and the three of them nodded and left.
But just after leaving the Yangxin Palace, Concubine Duan nodded and said goodbye to An Lingrong, then turned around and left without looking back...
Zhen Huan looked at the direction where Concubine Duan left, without saying a word, but still followed silently...
An Lingrong ignored him and got on the sedan chair with the help of Juqing. Su Peisheng looked at An Lingrong as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Eunuch Su, please go back and serve. Everything is fine." An Lingrong spoke. Su Peisheng seemed to have received a reassurance pill. He nodded with a happy face and bowed to see An Lingrong off.
Changchun Palace.
As soon as Concubine Duan walked into Changchun Palace, Zhen Huan followed in.
"Sister, won't you listen to my explanation?" Zhen Huan spoke as the two of them walked into the inner hall.
"I thought you hated her as much as I do! And before, I only thought you were steady and not good at fighting. If you wanted to regain the emperor's favor, I would help you, but today you actually suggested that the emperor make her a noble concubine!" Upon hearing this, Concubine Duan turned and looked at Zhen Huan with a cold look.
"Sister, listen to my explanation. You should have realized by now that the Emperor is wary of the Nian family. So no matter if Hua Fei is a noble concubine or a royal noble concubine, the position of Empress will never be hers..."
Zhen Huan was not annoyed, she just spoke slowly, and after Concubine Duan heard it, her expression, which was a little angry just now, slowly calmed down...
She sat on the Luohan bed thoughtfully, thinking carefully about what Zhen Huan said.
"Sister, don't you understand? Why doesn't Concubine Hua have children? Is it really the Queen's trick? There are so many imperial doctors in the harem, but no one has said that there is musk in Concubine Hua's body. If the Emperor hadn't allowed it..." Zhen Huan lowered her voice at the end, but didn't dare to say anything more.
After hearing this, Concubine Duan suddenly raised her head and looked at Zhen Huan...
The two stared at each other for a long time, and finally Concubine Duan smiled and said, "I don't think it's him who agreed to it, but he did it..."
After these words were spoken, Zhen Huan became the one who was shocked. She looked at Concubine Duan in disbelief. Concubine Duan snorted coldly and said, "After spending so many years with him, how could I not know his methods?..."
After hearing this, Zhen Huan's face became visibly sad. If it was true as Concubine Duan said, then there must be another murderer who killed her child...
"My concubine, I'll take my leave first..." Zhen Huan felt very confused at the moment, and her heart was in a mess. She said goodbye quickly and fled out of Changchun Palace...
"Why did Concubine Wan leave?..." Jixiang came in with tea and saw that Zhen Huan left in a hurry, so he spoke.
"You must have seen clearly something you didn't want to see clearly..." Concubine Duan said, and then stopped talking.
"Your Majesty, what about Concubine Chen?" Jixiang said as he placed the tea next to Concubine Duan and looked up at her.
In fact, she now does not quite understand her own master. Not to mention that Concubine Chen had helped her master since no one cared about her.
Right now, whether in terms of favor or means, Concubine Chen is much stronger than Concubine Wan. Jixiang can't understand why his master would make such a choice.
"I know you still remember the kindness she showed me when she helped me, and I remember it too.
But Concubine Chen is too difficult to control. Everything she has done since entering the palace has been beyond my expectations.
If it was the situation before, it would be fine for me to always rely on her, and she would definitely protect me to the end, but now, what I need is no longer to rely on others, but to find someone who is willing to stay behind me and help me, do you understand?"
After Concubine Duan finished speaking, she saw Jixiang nodded as if he understood, so she continued:
"Just look at this tea. When Concubine Hua was making things difficult for us, we had to spend our own money to buy fresh tea, let alone good tea.
Look at it nowadays, even the maid who sweeps the yard doesn’t drink the old tea from previous years.
But if you look at Concubine Chen again, when I went there a few days ago, she had already replaced the tea with the newly tributed West Lake Longjing.
Who wouldn’t want something better?”
Concubine Duan picked up the teacup beside her, took a sip of tea, and said:
"It's the same with Concubine Chen. In the past, she was under pressure from the Empress and Concubine Hua. In terms of seniority, Concubine Jing and I were above her.
But now that she has been named the Concubine, the Emperor has given her such a title, I don't believe she won't have some thoughts. If she has, she won't yield to others. Sooner or later, she and I will have to fight, so it's better to break up now."
Concubine Duan looked at the teacup in her hand, smiled at Jixiang, and continued:
"It's not that I'm heartless. All people are like this. When they don't have something, they just think it would be enough if they had it. But once they have it, they will want something better. She is, I am, and everyone is like this..."
*
Two days later, the emperor issued an edict to confer the title of Noble Consort Wenxi on the harem, and all the concubines in the harem were posthumously conferred the title. He also conferred the title of Noble Consort Hua on Consort Hua.
But in the end, Prince Dun's mother was not moved into the tomb of the previous emperor's concubine. It was probably because the emperor did not want to be criticized for his unfilial behavior by the previous dynasty and the harem.
Prince Dun heard the decree and heard that there was a commotion at home. The emperor wanted to issue an order to reprimand him, but was persuaded by Nian Gengyao...
When the emperor heard the news, he felt that the idea of "not worrying about scarcity but about inequality" was very useful. This time, Nian Gengyao, who had benefited, could persuade Prince Dun not to make trouble because his interests were protected.
What if the benefits were greater? Would Nian Gengyao kill Prince Dun? What if the opposite was true? ...
