The Golden Partridge of An Lingrong's Rebirth

On this day, when Miao promised to pay her respects, she had an argument with Mrs. Qi again. Mrs. Qi was so angry that she raised her hand and poured the tea on her head. Miao promised that she couldn't get angry, so she tore her hair on the spot, and the two twisted together The group was stunned by a group of concubines, but Xin Changzai watched with gusto, took two steps forward and was almost accidentally injured.

When the queen came out, the clothes of the two were disheveled and their temples were disheveled. You pulled my hair, and I pulled your Longhua, neither of them let go. They were so angry that they almost had a headache. All feet are forbidden, let's settle down for three or two days.

"Suyun, where are my clothes?" After Fang Chunyi returned to Yanxi Palace, she couldn't suppress the excitement on her face, "Hurry up and get someone to inquire about the emperor's whereabouts tonight, and quickly get everything ready." At the end , she looked at the weather again, "The weather is fine today, the moonlight must be beautiful tonight."

Suyun immediately became busy: "Young master, hurry up to burn incense and take a bath, and your servants to prepare clothes and jewelry." Then she told Su Yu, "Yu'er, go and find out, which little master's palace is the emperor going to tonight?" , you keep an eye on the time, tell me when you come back." Then he arranged for the little maids to bring things in a series of voices.

Fang Chunyi pressed his hands that were trembling with excitement, took a deep breath, and silently recited the situation that he had analyzed thousands of times in his heart.

Now in this palace, Concubine Duan is sick and has to take care of Princess Wen Yi, Concubine Qi has lost her color and cannot be sanctified, Concubine Jing and Concubine Hui are busy with affairs in the Six Palaces, Xin is often unknown, Concubine Rong and Concubine Guan are quite blessed , but one has to take care of the two princesses, and the other often serves in front of the Palace of Mental Cultivation, so she doesn't have much energy to serve the emperor. spoil.

Now, the empress has punished nobleman Qi and Miao agreed, Fang Chunyi is not stupid, and naturally knows that the empress is creating an opportunity for her, if she doesn't grasp it, then she will have no one else to blame.

Fang Chunyi immersed herself in the warm water, raised her hand and gestured for a blessing dance twice, stopped in mid-air and closed into fists, as if she was holding something, the firmness in her eyes became stronger and stronger.

Suiyuxuan is the most likely place for the emperor to go tonight. Suiyuxuan is close to the imperial garden, which is just right for her to perform. She has been practicing this dance for four months, and she has practiced every movement thousands of times. She knows which angle is the most beautiful and which movement is the most difficult.

"The moonlight is so beautiful tonight." An Lingrong stood in the yard, looking up at the nearly full moon, "It must be beautiful to dance under such a moonlight."

"The moon is bright and the wind is light, and the scenery in the imperial garden is picturesque. Why don't you go for a walk?" Cuiyin said with a smile, "The emperor looked through the signboard of the concubine Guan tonight. Maybe the empress will meet the emperor by chance."

"Someone has carefully prepared to meet the emperor by chance. I can't steal her limelight." An Lingrong stroked the wishful hairpin on his temples, and chuckled, "It's said that three women play in one drama. It's not that easy for her to reap the benefits of being a fisherman. Cuiyin, accompany Bengong to the Imperial Garden, and when you see something later, come back and promise to talk to Miao, so that she won't get bored."

Cuiyin understood An Lingrong's meaning after a little thought, and she bent down to answer.

In the Zhongchun Pavilion, Miao Ke was sitting in front of the dressing table in a huff, looking at her beautiful self in the mirror, carefully tracing her eyebrows with Qingdai, and then applying clear rouge, her green and tender face suddenly revealed a bit of charm Come on, she touched her face, looked at it intoxicated for a while, and then spat violently: "Mr. Qi, that coquettish fox, knows how to seduce the emperor. Hmph, I thought she could do something, but she's just a yellow-haired girl." !"

Tao Hong, who was serving at the side, gave Miao Kexin a hairpin in a fawning manner: "The young master has already flown on the branch and turned into a phoenix, the most important thing is to win the emperor's heart, so what's the matter with Mr. Qi. The servant must remember the young master so that he can follow along with her." Come to the Forbidden City to have a look, otherwise I don’t know how long I will stay in the workshop!” After a pause, she continued, “I thought it would be Sister Fu who entered the palace this time, but I didn’t expect the master to order the young master first. Come into the palace."

"I have seized this opportunity and gained such wealth, so I won't let it go easily." Miao Kexin raised her delicate face and smiled flamboyantly, which made her not-so-remarkable face brighter. Get beautiful, "It is said that children who can cry have milk to eat. Qigui is losing face now, and if I quarrel with her, the emperor will always look at me more, and when I have a child, I will gain a firm foothold in this palace , and then go back and deal with her slowly.” At the end, he sighed again, “Today’s trouble was too much, I didn’t expect that the empress’s mild temper would be punished so severely as soon as she made a move, and she will be banned for three days. It’s good for others to take advantage of the loophole.”

Miao Kexin gritted her teeth angrily, there was nothing she could do for a while.

Tao Hong took a look at Miao Kexin's face, and said cautiously: "Prince Dun sent someone to ask again, and told the young master to spread the news quickly. The meaning of the master is that Prince Dun must be stabilized for the time being."

Miao Kexin frowned, and didn't say much, she said a few words about the news she found out when she was in bed last night: "Go and tell Prince Dun, the emperor still entrusts him with important tasks, and he has no suspicion."

"Yes." Tao Hong saluted and stepped back.

After delivering the news, Tao Hong met An Lingrong and Cuiyin who were coming back from the imperial garden, and heard An Lingrong say something, "The dance is really beautiful, not to mention the emperor, even the palace is moved by watching it", so she couldn't help but stop After watching An Lingrong enter the bedroom from a distance, she went up to talk to Cuiyin.

"Aunt Cuiyin, where did you come from so late?" Tao Hong approached Cuiyin affectionately.

Cuiyin tidied up the expression on her face before turning around to look at her: "It's Miss Taohong, it's nothing, Miss Rong ate two more bites for dinner, and I walked two steps to the Royal Garden with her, who knows At the corner, I came across Mrs. Zhen performing a praying dance on the Qinfang Bridge, so I stopped and took a second look, she was really like a fairy in the Moon Palace." She smiled, and told her in detail what she had just seen, and finally Said, "After Mrs. Zhen finished dancing, the empress originally wanted to go up to say hello, but she saw the emperor standing under the bridge from a distance, so she didn't go to bother her."

"Your Majesty Zhen?" Tao Hong's face stiffened for a moment, and she thought for a while before she remembered, "Is it the one from Yanxi Palace?"

"That's right." Cuiyin said intentionally, "Your Majesty Zhen used to be very favored."

Taohong's face distorted uncontrollably, recalling Fang Chunyi's appearance, it was the same tender face as her little master, but with a little less obsequiousness and a little more innocence, it was a very cute and non-aggressive face , if she is favored, wouldn't she be blocking the road to wealth and honor of her little master?
Seeing Taohong get up thinking, Cuiyin's mission is completed, and she goes back to report to An Lingrong.

An Lingrong smiled and loosened her hair, and wiped the usual lotion. She didn't say much, but Cuiyin seemed hesitant to speak. She couldn't help but looked up, and said lightly: "What do you want to say?" Just say, don’t hide it.”

"Your Majesty has become estranged from Concubine Guan recently." Cuiyin said, "I am in the Imperial Garden tonight, and I will be two steps away from the Broken Jade Pavilion, and my Majesty refuses to go in. There are frequent quarrels between sisters. As for the matter, Empress and Concubine Guan entered the palace together, and their relationship is extraordinary, it's enough for them to be cold for several months."

An Lingrong paused slightly, lowered his eyes, shook his head with a wry smile: "My sister and I can't go back anymore."

Zhen Huan was determined to seek the emperor's true love in the palace. An Lingrong tried to persuade her several times, but she listened to it now, and would forget it later. As Concubine Duan said, a person who insists on pretending to be asleep cannot be woken up. She is really tired of persuading her.

Last time, it was because of Zhu Qing's provocation, but this time, it was because of Zhen Huan's jealousy.

An Lingrong sighed heavily, perhaps from the very beginning, she shouldn't have agreed to Zhen Huan's "worship as sisters", so that now, her feelings are deeper than those in her previous life, and it is difficult to let go.

She admitted that being close to Zhen Huan in this life is for the long-term plan, to find herself a backer who can have the last laugh, but gradually, she also gave her sincerity and sincerity, and made friends with Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, supported each other, and supported each other. Relying on her made her feel the warmth she had never felt before.For this relationship, she has done too much, or maybe it is because she has done too much that Zhen Huan has no sense of crisis and values ​​the emperor's love more and more.

However, looking out of this circle, An Lingrong suddenly found that this life was different.

In the past, there was an emperor who treated her sincerely, loved her and protected her to such an extent that even Zhen Huan would be jealous and unwilling. Later, An Bihuai was promoted many times, from a small official of the eighth rank to an important minister of the third rank. Lianai, and she herself has already taken the position of the lord of the first palace, no one dares to underestimate her anymore.

In this way, why does An Lingrong need to find someone else as a backer?She herself is the backer.

After thinking about this, she became more indifferent towards Zhen Huan.

In her previous life, An Lingrong had always been ashamed of Zhen Huan because she felt that she had ruined Zhen Huan's supposedly stable life, but in the next life, An Lingrong discovered that Zhen Huan's life should have gone through those ups and downs.Appearance, family background, talent, favor, she has everything, how would a person living in the clouds know what it would be like to fall into the quagmire?How can someone who has not struggled in the quagmire climb to the top?Since Zhen Huan was destined to experience those things, why did she try so hard to stop her.

Seeing An Lingrong lost in thought, Cuiyin felt that she had said something wrong and stopped speaking.

After Fang Chunyi regained his favor with a blessing dance under the moon, he monopolized the favor for half a month, even Qigui and Miao Kexin did not share too much favor after they lifted their confinement.

After a few rounds of competition for favor by each of them based on their ability, Miao Kexin was slightly better, and Fang Chunyi was evenly divided, beating noble Qi, and snatching the admission ticket to the Summer Palace to escape the summer heat.

This year the emperor brought not many people to the Old Summer Palace. Because the queen mother is still ill and cannot move, Shen Meizhuang asked to stay in the palace to take care of her, and An Lingrong also stayed in the palace on the grounds of relying on the emperor's mother during the time of Ankang. In addition, Concubine Duan was not on the list, and Mrs. Qi was taken over by Miao Kexin, so she also stayed in the palace.

Therefore, apart from the empress, only Concubine Qi Jingfei, Zhen Huan, Fang Chunyi, Miao Kexin, and Xin Chang were the ones who followed to Yuanmingyuan this year.

"It's rare to have such a leisurely time." Shen Meizhuang was free, and came to Weiyang Palace to chat with An Lingrong, "I can hardly remember when was the last time I was so leisurely, every day when I open my eyes, there are a lot of things waiting I didn't know before that there are so many things in this huge harem, trivial, cumbersome, and endless." As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed.

"My sister is really too tired." An Lingrong poured her a cup of tea, "Let me advise my sister, proper decentralization can sometimes be more powerful."

Shen Meizhuang slightly raised his eyebrows: "What's the explanation?"

"Your superior, you don't have to do everything by yourself, my sister will know just by looking at the emperor." An Lingrong said slowly, "Knowing people and making good use of them is what those in power should really do. , maybe you won’t be as tired as you are now.”

Shen Meizhuang was thoughtful.

An Lingrongfu said again: "As for how to win people's hearts and promote confidantes, don't my sister and I need to talk too much?" Shen Meizhuang, as the daughter of the Shen family, must have learned this point.

"In this case, why don't you take this opportunity to clarify the people in the palace." Shen Meizhuang's eyes slowly lit up, "I was only focused on doing things before, but I always ignored people. It's not because there are people who have jobs, but because there are talents." Something happened, I actually put the cart before the horse. Ronger, thank you for reminding me."

"I'm just a bystander." An Lingrong smiled.

Shen Meizhuang spent a full ten days sorting out the roster of the harem's palace servants. This check is not a big deal, but a lot of problems have been found out.

"I checked carefully. These people's household registration and slave registration are not registered, and I don't know when they entered the palace. Although they are all inconspicuous positions, they are too many. It turned out that there were 330 people." Shen Meizhuang spread out the roster to An Lingrong, and took out a pamphlet, recording these unknown people, "I have only heard of selling officials and nobles, but I have never heard of selling It's ridiculous to be a servant."

An Lingrong's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked up at Shen Meizhuang: "Sister, have you ever thought that maybe these people didn't want to come in by themselves, but someone arranged for them to come in?"

So far, the Mei Huanrong group has been flying solo, spreading flowers~
