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

"What Concubine Xin said makes sense. I also think that Wen Yi will eventually be taken back by Concubine Hua to be raised. Cao Qinmo often takes Wen Yi to Concubine Hua. Wen Yi has been crying non-stop in recent days. I think the emperor will prefer someone who Wen Yi is more familiar with." Shen Meizhuang nodded.

An Lingrong didn't say anything, but just drank her tea, deep in thought.

They talked for a while before leaving. Returning to Zhan Jing Zhai, An Lingrong summoned Mi Xia and whispered a few words in her ear. Mi Xia agreed and quietly left Tianran Painting at night.

Soon, a palace maid came to announce that the Emperor would be staying at Bitong Academy today. An Lingrong asked Juqing to prepare writing materials while she flipped through the ancient prescription she had just obtained the day before and copied it down, waiting for Mixia.

It was not until the end of the Xu hour that Mixia returned to Zhan Jing Zhai.

"My lady, here's what you wanted." Mixia brought in a small bundle. Juqing took it and opened it. Inside was an old piece of clothing of Cao Qinmo and the incense that Cao Qinmo usually used.

"No one noticed, right?" An Lingrong asked.

"No, she is a commoner now, and these are not for her to use. They have long been put away and stored by the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I disguised myself and took a few things in the chaos." When Mi Xia spoke, An Lingrong noticed Mi Xia's outfit and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Mixia has an ordinary appearance, but little does one know that being ordinary has its advantages. Just by changing her clothes and slightly changing her makeup and hairstyle, she seems to have turned into another ordinary person!

"I didn't expect you to have this ability." An Lingrong praised with a smile, looking surprised.

"My lady, please stop teasing me." Mi Xia was brought to An Lingrong's front and looked around, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Okay, it's so late, and you've been busy all day. Go wash up and have some rest. Juqing will be on guard tonight." An Lingrong knew that she was shy and not good at joking, so she spoke and asked Xia Fuli to leave.

An Lingrong took the incense from the incense box and handed it to Juqing, asking her to keep it. She picked up Cao Qinmo's old clothes and took a quick sniff, and she knew what kind of spices she usually used to fumigate her clothes.

"Juqing, bring some paper and pen." An Lingrong spoke, and Juqing hurried to get them. An Lingrong wrote a prescription and handed it to Juqing, telling her to ask someone to buy it according to the prescription tomorrow.

The next day was the fifteenth, and the emperor went to the queen. Perhaps it was because the queen asked about it that an imperial decree came the next day, saying that Wen Yi's birthday ceremony should be held as usual.

That night, the emperor came to Zhan Jing Zhai. As soon as he entered the room, he saw An Lingrong writing something at the table. Ju Qing wanted to call An Lingrong, but was stopped by the emperor's wave of his hand.

When the emperor approached, he saw An Lingrong flipping through a tattered ancient prescription and writing at the same time. The warm yellow candlelight reflected on her porcelain-like face, giving her features a faint golden hue. Her serious yet unconscious beauty startled the emperor.

"Juqing, spread out some rice paper." An Lingrong spoke without raising her head. The emperor glanced across the table, picked up a piece of rice paper beside it, and spread it in front of An Lingrong.

An Lingrong only felt a flash of bright yellow in front of her eyes. She was stunned for a moment, and looked up blankly, and saw the emperor looking at her with a smile.

"The Emperor is here, why don't you come to report?" An Lingrong glanced at Juqing, who shook his head and was about to stand up and salute.

But before he could get up, the emperor raised his hand to stop him.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I didn't notice you coming." An Lingrong sat back, but the self-blame in her voice did not diminish in the slightest.

"Rong'er is always like this, too polite, never let me feel strange, it's better to be more casual in the future." The emperor stepped forward, stood behind An Lingrong, and continued:

"What is Rong'er writing?"

"Just some spice recipes, but this ancient recipe is hard to find. I found one a few days ago, but I forgot the time when I wrote it down." An Lingrong looked up at the emperor. Under the candlelight, the emperor raised his hand and gently pinched An Lingrong's round little chin, looking at her for a long time.

"Your Majesty..." An Lingrong called out in a low voice, and the emperor came back to his senses.

"Rong'er, you look so beautiful today!" The emperor said with a smile, pulling An Lingrong up, and Juqing stepped forward to clean up the things on the table.

There was another storm after another, and the emperor did not end it until An Lingrong cried and begged for mercy, feeling unsatisfied.

"Rong'er, do you want to have a child by your side?" The emperor said while lying on his side and looking at An Lingrong.

"Your Majesty, are you talking about Princess Wen Yi?" An Lingrong did not pretend to be ignorant and looked at the emperor.

"Wen Yi has been crying non-stop in recent days, and Concubine Hua has come to ask for a meeting several times because of this matter. But you also know that Concubine Hua's temperament is not suitable for raising children. I have thought about it, and you are the only one with a very gentle temperament in my harem." The emperor sniffed An Lingrong's hair lightly and ran his fingers through her long hair.

"I know that the emperor favors me, so he wants Rong'er to raise Princess Wen Yi. But above me are Concubine Duan and Concubine Jing. Concubine Hua will definitely not accept this. Then, it will be the emperor who will be embarrassed. I don't want to embarrass the emperor..." An Lingrong said, and bowed her head further to the emperor's chest.

"Concubine Hua is not suitable for raising children, and Concubine Duan...she is not in good health, so why not let Concubine Jing raise her." The emperor nodded after thinking and spoke.

"If the emperor can't make up his mind, why not let Wen Yi choose the mother she likes herself?" An Lingrong continued casually.

"Rong'er is good at joking, but Wen Yi can't even speak..." The emperor raised his hand and scratched An Lingrong's upturned nose, saying with a smile.

"Then let's see who Wen Yi likes. Ahaha~~ Your Majesty, isn't he asleep yet? I'm so sleepy that I can't even open my eyes." An Lingrong yawned and fell asleep in the emperor's arms.

Two days later, one evening, the emperor came to Taohuawu when all the concubines were paying their respects, followed by Wen Yi's wet nurse, holding Wen Yi in her arms.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health." All the concubines, including the Queen, stood up and saluted. The Emperor raised his hand and said, "No need to be so polite."

Everyone stood up.

"Empress Duan is here!" A voice came from outside, and Concubine Duan was supported by Jixiang into the main hall.

When Concubine Duan saw her, Concubine Hua's expression became visibly cold. She glanced at Concubine Duan and stopped looking at her.

"I pay my respects to the Emperor and the Empress. May the Emperor and the Empress be blessed with good health." Concubine Duan knelt down and saluted. The Emperor waved his hand and Concubine Duan stood up and sat down.

"Concubine Duan looks much better." The emperor saw that although Concubine Duan's complexion was still a little bad, she no longer looked like she had been ill for a long time, so he spoke.

"Your Majesty, perhaps it is because your harem has added a lot of beauties, and the palace has become more lively. I am smiling and happy in my heart, and my illness has improved a lot." Concubine Duan spoke with a gentle smile on her face, looking at the emperor.

Upon seeing this, the emperor couldn't help feeling a little guilty. For a long time, it was not so much that he was unwilling to see Concubine Duan, but rather that he did not dare to go. Concubine Duan's current situation was all designed by him, so he was unwilling to blame her.

"I am glad that you are getting better." The emperor said and stopped looking.

"I came here today to choose a mother for Wen Yi. Wen Yi is still young and cannot speak, but I think we should choose someone Wen Yi is willing to be close to." The emperor said as he looked at the concubines.
