"What are you thinking about? I'm not going to fight, why do I need to bring so many people with me?" An Lingrong looked at Juqing, confused.

"Don't blame me, Madam. I was mistaken. I thought that you were going to..."

Juqing knew that she had misunderstood, and hurried to explain. After she finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What are you laughing at?" An Lingrong asked, looking at Juqing with some confusion.

"I just remembered that you went to Changchun Palace last time and beat her..." Juqing spoke, and An Lingrong was surprised.

"Did you hear everything outside?" An Lingrong originally thought that it was impossible for outsiders to know what happened in there.

"Only I, my hearing is better than others, and I happened to be guarding the window that day, so I heard something..." Juqing explained and helped An Lingrong put on armor.

"So that's how it is. Don't worry, there will be a day like that. I really can't swallow this..."

An Lingrong took a deep breath as she spoke. How could she not want to rush into Changchun Palace right now and destroy the arm of that bitch Concubine Duan!

But reason told her that she should not act impulsively at such a time, and she needed to calm down and plan carefully...

So ever since Hong Sheng woke up, she has been thinking about how she should solve this problem.

The occurrence of this incident also brought the issue of "succession struggle" to the surface.

This time we have to solve not only the present, but also the future...

He didn't think so before, but the recent events have sounded a wake-up call for her. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. The Eighth Prince and the Tenth Prince are still imprisoned in the clan residence...

Who will be the crown prince in the future will also affect the future lives of me and my children...

Therefore, the most important thing for her now is to completely destroy the thoughts of the person in Changchun Palace!

No matter what, we must get rid of this poisonous snake first.

When Ju Qing came in again, she saw An Lingrong sitting on the bed, staring blankly at one place, so she whispered, "Madam, do you want to go now?"

"Let's go." An Lingrong came back to her senses and spoke when she saw Juqing approaching her. Juqing stepped forward and helped her up. The two of them hid in the night and quietly left Chengqian Palace.

Zhongcui Palace.

Before An Lingrong and Juqing entered the palace, they heard the sounds of smashing and looting coming from Zhongcui Palace, mixed with the low sobs of servants.

An Lingrong glanced at Xiao Zhongzi, who understood and said loudly, "The Empress Chen has arrived!"

As soon as the voice came out, the voices inside immediately stopped, followed by waves of panicked voices...

A few breaths later, with a "creak", the door of Zhongcui Palace was opened from the inside. Because of the backlight, it was only when I looked closely that I could see clearly that it was Jingtai who opened the door.

"Where is your young lady? Why doesn't she come out to greet our Empress Chen?" Juqing looked at Jingtai and spoke in a tone like an old maid.

Upon hearing this, Jingtai hurriedly said, "My young lady has been feeling unwell since returning from Chengqian Palace. She is currently lying on the bed and did not get up to greet you. I hope that Her Majesty the Concubine will forgive me."

Jingtai was quite polite and knelt down to greet An Lingrong as he spoke.

"Then I have come at the perfect time. Let's go in and take a look..."

As An Lingrong spoke, she took Juqing inside. Jingtai wanted to stop them, but An Lingrong gave him a look, and Jingtai lowered his head in fear.

When An Lingrong walked into the inner hall, she saw that Concubine Qi was indeed lying on the bed, but she couldn't tell whether she was sick or not...

When Concubine Qi saw An Lingrong approaching, she looked a little panicked. An Lingrong raised her eyebrows and thought: Could it be that she also thought that she could hit someone? ?

"What? Aren't you going to get up and pay your respects?" When An Lingrong came back to her senses, she was already standing in front of the bed, looking down at Concubine Qi in front of her. Concubine Qi felt the pressure was overwhelming.

"May your Majesty live forever. I am not feeling well and I am pregnant with the heir to the throne. I am afraid I cannot get up to pay my respects to you. I hope you will forgive me."

Concubine Qi spoke timidly, but An Lingrong continued to look straight at her.

"Lady Qi is not feeling well, why didn't any of the servants know to ask for the imperial physician? Juqing, please tell Chief Steward Liang that all the servants in Zhongcui Palace should be replaced!"

When An Lingrong spoke, all the servants in the hall knelt down hurriedly, and Concubine Qi even stood up.

"It was I who didn't let them go. The Emperor is busy with government affairs every day, and the Fifth Prince is injured, so I thought it would be better not to cause trouble. I hope that the Empress Chen will forgive them this time..."

Concubine Qi supported herself and spoke. At this time, An Lingrong had already sat on the soft stool that Ju Qing had brought, sitting face to face with her...

"Noble Lady Qi, do you really not know why I have come to your place today?" An Lingrong said as she began to look around the furnishings in the hall.

She had rarely been to Zhongcui Palace, let alone to Concubine Qi's place. Now that she had seen it, she felt that every decoration in this palace reflected Concubine Qi's flamboyant personality...

"What does Empress Chen want to do?" Noble Lady Qi spoke in a low voice, but An Lingrong could tell that she was really a little timid at the moment.

"All of you go out first. I want to have a few private words with Noble Lady Qi today. Juqing, stay outside."

An Lingrong looked at Concubine Qi and spoke slowly with a smile on her face. Concubine Qi pursed her lips and nodded, and the servants in the outer hall retreated.

"My lady." Jingtai called out to Concubine Qi, with a worried look on his face...

"You can go out too. I won't make things difficult for her." An Lingrong said, while Juqing was already pulling Jingtai out of the palace...

As Juqing closed the palace door from the outside, An Lingrong looked at Concubine Qi again with a cold look in her eyes.

"You, what do you want to do?" Seeing An Lingrong looking at her like a wolf looking at its prey, Concubine Qi couldn't help but feel a little nervous. She covered her stomach with both hands, with a look of alertness on her face.

"You're afraid too?" An Lingrong raised her eyebrows and asked when she saw how frightened she was.

"My concubine, my concubine did not..." Concubine Qi opened her mouth, but her body shrank back again.

"You dare not admit it but do it. What a coward." An Lingrong said with a hint of sneer on her lips. She almost bit through Concubine Qi's lips.

"My concubine, I don't understand what you are saying..." Concubine Qi glared at An Lingrong, still holding her belly, and looked at her warily.

"Why are you looking at me like that? I really don't know." Concubine Qi looked at An Lingrong leaning towards her again and couldn't help swallowing.

"You really don't know?"

"I really don't know..."

The two asked and answered each other, but An Lingrong smiled.

"Okay, let me talk to you about business. Although I hate you for this matter, I still want to ask you. Was it Concubine Duan who suggested you do this?"

This time, An Lingrong came straight to the point. She stood up and sat on the bed beside her. She really didn't want to face someone like her.

(Two chapters in one)

"I... I don't understand what you are saying!" Concubine Qi's eyes flickered slightly, and she looked away guiltily...

"Don't you understand again? If you don't understand this time, I won't be as easy to talk to as before..." An Lingrong looked at Concubine Qi on the bed and put away the smile on her face.

"My concubine..."

"Since I'm asking you this, I must have evidence. I came here today because I feel sorry for you..." An Lingrong stood up and walked towards the bed again, and then stopped talking...

"You, what are you going to do?" Seeing this, Concubine Qi couldn't help but shrink back and look at An Lingrong's raised hand.

"What? What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that I will beat you? I am just tucking the quilt for you..." An Lingrong said, and she really just tucked the quilt for her.

"I, I don't need your false mercy!..." Concubine Qi spoke, but her voice trembled slightly.

"Am I pretending to be merciful? Can you use your brain? I don't even need to guess, you know what Concubine Duan said to you at the beginning." An Lingrong shook her head with a helpless smile on the corner of her lips.

"Why don't I have a brain? My father always says..." Concubine Qi started to speak. At this point, An Lingrong glared at her, and Concubine Qi quickly fell silent...

"If you want to hear me, just shut up." An Lingrong glanced at Concubine Qi and walked back to the bed. Concubine Qi didn't dare to say anything again.

"Concubine Duan must have told you that the only person standing in the way of your unborn child is Sheng'er...

Not only that, I also know that she must have said that the Third Prince is stupid and she doesn't really like him.

The Fourth Prince’s birth had already determined her future. Only Sheng’er was loved and cherished by the Emperor the most…”

After An Lingrong finished speaking, Concubine Qi looked at her in surprise.

"I'll tell you, your opponent has never been Sheng'er, and I've never thought of letting Sheng'er take that position. I've talked about this with Concubine Duan, so what do you think is her intention in doing this?"

After An Lingrong finished speaking, she looked at Concubine Qi, who actually shook her head! ...

"No wonder Concubine Duan played you around so hard. Your brain is useless... Let me be frank with you."

An Lingrong looked at Concubine Qi in front of her, who was slightly better than Concubine Qi, and shook her head helplessly.

"Do you think that slave can get out of the Ministry of Punishment alive? The Ministry of Punishment requires even the dead to vomit something."

An Lingrong looked at Concubine Qi. Concubine Qi stood up and wanted to speak, but when she met An Lingrong's eyes, she swallowed the words back.

"Empress Duan asked you to do this because she wanted to kill two birds with one stone. Sheng'er is injured. Just wait and see. That servant from the Ministry of Punishment will definitely betray you. By then, you will be rejected by the Emperor!

If the emperor dislikes you, either your child will be disliked by the emperor, or you will hand your child over to her to raise...

The Third Prince and your child are both in her hands. No matter what, she is the only one who wins...

And you, if your child is really chosen by the emperor, do you think Concubine Duan will keep you, the queen mother and the empress dowager, in the palace to be an eyesore?"

I knew she was not smart, but I didn't know it was so bad. I could only explain it to her clearly.

"You, are all these things you said true?"

Lady Qi was stunned at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that what An Lingrong said made a lot of sense...

But, I am sincere to Concubine Duan... How could she treat me like this?! No way?

"Sheng'er is injured and has no chance of getting that position. Why would I lie to you?"

As An Lingrong spoke, she looked towards Concubine Qi and adjusted the armor on her hands.
