An Lingrong is reborn, the reorganized team is killing like crazy

Another heavy snow fell, and it was time for the annual New Year's Eve banquet in the palace. As soon as everyone sat down, An Lingrong noticed that the emperor would always look at Zhen Huan from time to time, so she looked at Zhen Huan.

Zhen Huan sat below Concubine Duan, and her makeup today was indeed a little different from usual.

Although Zhen Huan's makeup is usually simple and elegant, her slightly heroic eyebrows are inherited from Zhen Yuandao. It is also her slightly heroic eyebrows that make Zhen Huan look tough in her bones, but she painted her eyebrows today as distant mountain black.

Not only that, she usually liked to wear cold colors like green, aqua blue, and snow blue, but today she was wearing a bright yellow Manchu dress, which made her previously slightly elegant look even softer and more graceful.

Although An Lingrong had never seen Chun Yuan, she knew a lot about Chun Yuan's preferences in her previous life when she was by the Queen's side. Zhen Huan's outfit today was Chun Yuan's favorite outfit when she was alive. Coupled with her face that looked very similar to Chun Yuan, it was no wonder that the Emperor looked at her so often.

"Why do I feel that the Emperor is always looking at Concubine Wan? She must be using some witchcraft again!" Fu Cha leaned towards An Lingrong and glanced at Zhen Huan.

"Why are you talking about witchcraft again? Someone must have used a trick on her." When An Lingrong heard the word "witchcraft", she thought of Zhen Huan's "Butterfly Petition" last year. Fu Cha also said the same thing at that time, and she couldn't help but find it a little funny...

Fu Cha seemed to have remembered that time as well, and started laughing too.

"But what advice did Concubine Duan give her? What advice did she give? Why didn't I see it?" After laughing, Fu Cha moved closer and put on a serious look.

"No matter what trick it is, as long as it works for the emperor, it's a good trick. This trick is much more effective than last year's "Butterfly Willingness"..."

As An Lingrong spoke, she picked up the teacup beside her, took a sip of tea, and glanced at Concubine Duan opposite her. She saw that she was drinking the soup in her hand with a gentle expression on her face.

"In my opinion, Concubine Duan is also a fool. She probably doesn't know that Concubine Wan is plotting against her. I'll find an opportunity to spread the news that Concubine Wan is plotting against her. I'll see if she will still help Zhen Huan..." Fu Cha also looked at Concubine Duan with a smile on her face.

Just at this moment, Concubine Duan also raised her head and realized that the two people opposite were looking at her. She forced a gentle smile on her face and raised the wine glass in her hand towards An Lingrong. An Lingrong also raised the teacup in her hand, and the two of them toasted each other from a distance.

"Who's plotting against whom?" An Lingrong took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and said to Fu Cha, who was confused...

"What do you mean?" Fu Cha looked at An Lingrong in bewilderment. An Lingrong said, "What's the point of telling you? Just take your time to figure it out..."

"Your Majesty, as we bid farewell to the old and usher in the new, I wish the Qing Dynasty peace and prosperity, and that the people will have enough food and clothing. I also hope that Your Majesty will have wise ministers in next year's imperial examinations." Concubine Duan, who was sitting on the emperor's left, had already raised her glass to congratulate the emperor.

"Good!" The emperor smiled and picked up the wine glass in front of him. Everyone stood up and raised their glasses, saying, "I wish the Qing Dynasty peace and prosperity."

After hearing this, the emperor smiled and drank the wine in his hand, and then everyone sat down.

"Your Majesty, I wish you good health." As soon as she sat down, Concubine Qi stood up again and raised her glass to the emperor.

"Okay." The emperor said and raised his glass.

"This Noble Lady Qi, if Concubine Duan had not pleaded with the Queen Mother, she would still be under house arrest. Now she is the first to take advantage of the situation..." Fu Cha curled his lips and muttered a few words when he saw this.

"Who made her beautiful? Look at the way she is dressed, she is like a colorful butterfly. Not to mention the emperor, I also want to take a second look at her." Concubine Xin spoke. An Lingrong covered her smile with a silk handkerchief, but Fu Cha couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What good news are you talking about? Why are you so happy?" The emperor was attracted by Fu Cha's laughter and looked towards them.

"Your Majesty, it's nothing. I just saw Concubine Wan and the red plum blossoms beside her, and remembered that last year Concubine Wan prayed under the red plum blossoms and attracted a lot of butterflies. I just wonder if the butterflies will come again this year?" Fu Cha looked at the emperor and smiled. After listening, the emperor also looked at Zhen Huan.

"Your Majesty, I think it was just a coincidence that day. I don't know how those butterflies came to Yime Garden." Zhen Huan spoke softly. Everyone looked at Zhen Huan, and Zhen Huan's face began to look a little embarrassed.

"Brother Emperor, I was there that day, and I saw the butterflies dancing among the red plum blossoms. Seeing is believing." Prince Guo smiled and looked at the Emperor, helping Zhen Huan out of the predicament.

After hearing this, Zhen Huan also bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Prince Guo, for your compliment."

"Prince Guo said that the butterfly was beautiful, but he didn't say anything about you. Why are you thanking me?" When Concubine Qi saw that everyone had brought the topic to Zhen Huan again, she became a little annoyed and muttered softly.

Even though the sound was small, everyone heard it clearly, and for a moment the room became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

"I still remember the scene of that day. The red plum blossoms and butterflies, plus the beauty of Concubine Wan, were truly a beautiful painting.

Although there are no butterflies here today, Hongmei and Wanpin are here, so what does it matter if there are fewer butterflies? " Concubine Duan smiled softly and tried to smooth things over.

"What Concubine Duan said is right. I remember that scene too. It is rare to see so many butterflies flying out in such a cold winter.

Of all the sisters, Concubine Duan is the most thoughtful one. She always notices the emperor's preferences and always lets you find the best plum blossoms in Yimei Garden to give to the emperor." An Lingrong smiled and said with sincere flattery on her face.

Concubine Duan was startled when she heard this, but the angry Fu Cha smiled. An Lingrong glanced at Fu Cha and thought to herself, "That's all you can do..."

"Concubine Duan, very good." Upon hearing the voice, the emperor looked at Concubine Duan, then looked at Zhen Huan, picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all.

"Your Majesty, I am your concubine..." Concubine Duan wanted to say something else, but the sound of stringed instruments rang out, and the dancers filed in and began to dance...

"Thank you..." Fu Cha smiled and served An Lingrong a bowl of soup.

"Why thank me? How can we do without butterflies?" An Lingrong smiled as she watched the dancing girl. Fu Cha also smiled. There was nothing she could do. She was just like that to protect her...

"Rong'er, do you like today's meal?" The emperor looked at An Lingrong and asked with concern.

"Empress Chen, the Emperor knows that you don't like to eat cold food in winter, so the meals on your table were specially ordered by the Emperor to be delivered in a warm sedan chair." An Lingrong was about to answer when Su Peisheng spoke up from the side.

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your kindness." An Lingrong looked at the emperor with surprise and was about to stand up.

The emperor said hurriedly, "You are pregnant now, so you don't need to go through all these formalities. If you feel tired later, tell me. My warm sedan is waiting outside."

"Then I will use tea instead of wine to thank the emperor." An Lingrong picked up the teacup beside her and showed gratitude on her face.

"Rong'er and I, there's no need to thank you." The emperor said as he picked up the wine glass and drank it with a smile.
