"What do you mean by saying that?" Upon hearing this, Fu Cha's eyes brightened as he looked at An Lingrong. An Lingrong just smiled and said nothing.

"Your Majesty is right. This may seem like a good thing, but it may not be a bad thing. Wanpin has no children, and the Emperor has made exceptions to promote her again and again. How could Concubine Duan let her do what she wants? It's hard to tell whether it's a blessing or a curse."

Xinpin agreed, and An Lingrong nodded at Fucha.

"The Emperor has already spoken. Isn't this just a matter of the enthronement ceremony? If I were Wanpin, I would just ignore her before the enthronement ceremony. I have to endure it until the ceremony is over."

Fu Cha didn't think so. Since the emperor had issued an edict, what difference was there between that and it being a done deal?

"Don't underestimate Concubine Duan. She has been in the harem for many years and has seen many tricks. Why do you think she kept you here and said those words today?

I think you were impulsive in the past. Tell me yourself, what would you do if you said those words in the past? You would have to find a way to mess it up, right? "Xinpin continued to speak, and Fu Cha suddenly realized it.

"Ah?! So, she was actually plotting against me just now! Why did she suddenly stand up for me for no reason?" Fu Cha said angrily, wishing he could rush to Changchun Palace and tear her apart.

"Okay, don't be angry. Didn't you not fall for her trick? And you made her feel suffocated here." An Lingrong pulled her to comfort her.

"Hmph! That bitch, Concubine Duan, I will make her suffer in the future!" Fu Cha often made harsh remarks, and An Lingrong and Concubine Xin just smiled and nodded.

"By the way, Lingrong, who do you think is responsible for the promotion of Concubine Wan to imperial concubine?" Fu Cha said as he sat down next to An Lingrong and asked while holding her arm.

"It's none of their business. As long as they don't put their hands on me, I won't take advantage of anyone." An Lingrong spoke without any expression on her face.

"Then why did you respond to Concubine Qi so directly today? If this happened a few days ago, you would have been too lazy to pay attention to her." Fu Cha suddenly became smart and looked at An Lingrong and asked.

"As I just said, I would not bother with them unless they reach out to me. Now, I just want my two children to grow up safely." An Lingrong spoke, and her tone became a little colder when she thought of what Concubine Qi had done.

"What happened here? Is she interested in the child?" Fu Cha became nervous after hearing this.

"You guessed right, she has developed feelings for Qian Yue." An Lingrong did not hide it and looked at Fu Cha.

"How is Qian Yue? Is she okay? Wait for me to go find her!" Fu Cha said as he stood up.

"I just said that you are already a mother, why are you still so reckless? Listen to what Concubine Chen has to say." Concubine Xin pulled her to sit down, and An Lingrong extended her hand to her.

"Qian Yue and Sheng'er are fine. I have always been on guard against them. This matter is also my fault. Ever since I had them, I no longer wanted to compete with them. I have also given them face these days, making them think that I am easy to bully. Don't worry, I will never do that in the future." An Lingrong patted Fu Cha's hand to reassure her.

"Your Majesty said 'they', so it is not just the work of Concubine Qi, right?" Concubine Xin spoke and looked at An Lingrong.

"Of course she is. To be able to hide it from us, it must be Concubine Duan who is behind the plan. How could Concubine Qi have such a brain? She is even worse than the former Concubine Qi..." Fu Cha looked at Concubine Xin with a bit of pride on his face.

An Lingrong wanted to laugh when she saw her like that, but Xinpin couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What are you laughing at? Am I wrong?" Fu Cha looked serious and looked at An Lingrong, hoping that she could prove that he was right.

"You're right. You used to be quite innocent. But now you can annoy Concubine Duan with just a few words. That's progress." An Lingrong said with a smile, her face full of approval.

"Of course. You've already said that I'm the mother now, so I have to think twice before doing anything..." Fu Cha continued to speak arrogantly. An Lingrong and Xinpin both held back their laughter and nodded at her.

"Empress, Wangshu has woken up and is crying for you." Sang'er came in to report. Fu Cha looked at the two of them, and they nodded to her. She stood up and said goodbye.

"Your Majesty, what do you think Concubine Duan will do about this matter?" After Fu Cha left, Concubine Xin looked at An Lingrong and asked.

"I can't guess, but if you want the emperor to take back his imperial decree, you must have to use a ruthless method." An Lingrong replied, picking up the teacup in her hand but not bringing it to her lips.

In her previous life, Zhen Huan was disliked by the Emperor because she wore Chun Yuan's old clothes by mistake when she was appointed as Concubine Wan. After giving birth to Long Yue, she asked to go to Ganlu Temple. In this life, without the Queen, she didn't know what tricks Concubine Duan would play.

"You are right. The emperor treats Wanpin now very much like he treated Nian in the past. Nian had no children and was promoted again and again. The same is true for Wanpin. She has no son or daughter yet she has become a concubine at such a young age. Just because of this similarity with Huafei, Duanfei will not let her get her wish easily." Xinpin nodded and then shook her head...

That afternoon, An Lingrong was summoned by the emperor to serve in the Yangxin Palace. While the emperor handled government affairs, An Lingrong sat at the desk in the corner practicing calligraphy.

"Your Majesty, Lord Emin requests to see you." Near dusk, Su Peisheng came in to report. The emperor raised his head and glanced outside with a dark look in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, I'll take my leave first." Upon seeing this, An Lingrong knew that the two must have something important to discuss, so she stood up and walked up to the emperor and spoke softly.

"You go wait in the east side hall. You have just finished practicing calligraphy. I will come and show it to you when I am done." The emperor took a deep breath and looked at An Lingrong.

"Yes." An Lingrong had no choice but to agree, bowed slightly and left.

Seeing this, Su Peisheng hurried to An Lingrong's desk, packed up the papers and pens, and followed her out.

"Eunuch Su, just give the things to Juqing. I see that the emperor doesn't look well. Please ask someone to make a cup of chrysanthemum tea and send it in. It will also help the emperor calm down." An Lingrong spoke with a faint smile on her face. Juqing took the things from Su Peisheng's hand.

"Thank you for your advice, Your Majesty. Please come in and tell me if you need anything. After Lord Emin leaves, the Emperor may still need you..." Su Peisheng bowed and said to An Lingrong with a smile.

"Don't worry, Eunuch Su. I'll just write slowly." An Lingrong nodded, and Su Peisheng bowed to express his gratitude.

E Min entered the study and did not stay long before coming out. As a result, An Lingrong waited in the east side hall for a long time but did not see the emperor coming, so she asked Ju Qing to invite Su Peisheng in.

"Empress Chen." Su Peisheng walked in and bowed.

"How is the emperor?" An Lingrong put down the pen in her hand and looked at Su Peisheng.

"The emperor said that no one is allowed to serve him..." Su Peisheng looked embarrassed.
