Chapter 39 Xia Clan Xitiya
Yu Ying'er hurried over, hurriedly bowed and knelt down, and said, "I have seen Concubine An."

Although Yu Ying'er usually spoke without paying any attention to the concubines in the harem, she talked about everyone in the palace.

But standing in front of An Lingrong, she still maintained a cautious attitude, giving some face to the favored concubine in front of her.

After all, she was just a little palace maid. If she didn't show respect to her favorite concubine, she would end up serving in Xinzheku, or lose her life after joining the Shenxing Department, which was also a common occurrence in the palace.

An Lingrong looked at Yu Ying'er expressionlessly and said nothing.

To be honest, she despises Yu Ying'er, just like she despised Xia Dongchun back then.

Of course, it's not just Xia Dongchun and Yu Ying'er, but also the brainless concubines and maids in the harem.

Although An Lingrong would not be like Concubine Hua, who would put her arrogance and look down on others on her face, or put her words on the lips of noble people to slander eunuchs.

But as the lord of the first palace, An Lingrong, who is firmly established and is respectfully called Empress An by the servants and the people, is naturally arrogant in her heart!
Looking at the uneasy Yu Ying'er, An Lingrong pulled a smile from the corner of her mouth and said slowly: "I ask you to escort your sister back to Broken Yuxuan, are you willing?"

The words that didn't look like orders made Yu Ying'er's eyes light up. She subconsciously thought that An Lingrong liked her, so she knelt on the ground and promised: "Yu Ying'er will escort Wan Changzai back to Broken Yuxuan safely!"

An Lingrong pretended to support Yu Ying'er, maintaining her image of a caring sister in front of Zhen Huan, and said with a chuckle: "Why are you kneeling on the ground? I can still eat you, okay, the sky is dark and cold, send Wan away quickly Sister, go back, be careful of catching a cold."

"The servant understands."

Yu Ying'er stood up, biting her lower lip and looking at the motionless Wan Changzai, a moment of speechlessness flashed in her eyes.

Wan Chang Zai had such a bad temper that she didn't even know how to say thank you. Thanks to Empress An Bin's good temper, she didn't care about this.

After reacting, Zhen Huan nodded slightly, put her hand on An Lingrong's wrist, with red eyes, sighed: "It's my sister who disturbed my sister and the emperor's enjoyment of flower viewing. I hope my sister will come to Suiyuxuan more often in the future. Don't Blame it on my sister.”

"That's natural. Don't worry, Sister Wan. I will take Sister Mei with me to Suiyuxuan to sit down with me when I have time."

The murderous and heart-wrenching An Lingrong read quickly, "It's just right for the child in Sister Mei's belly to hear Sister Wan's voice, so that he can remember Sister Wan when he is born in the future."

Hearing this, Zhen Huan's body froze for a moment as she walked, and then she quickly left as if nothing had happened.

Yu Ying'er, who was accompanying her, almost fell down due to Zhen Huan's move. She glanced angrily at Wan Changzai, who was even more rude than her, and left holding in her anger.

After Zhen Huan left completely, An Lingrong looked down at the wrist touched by Zhen Huan, and wiped her skin with snow expressionlessly, as if she was not afraid of the cold.

Zhen Huan's heart is really dirty.

Before she could hide from the world, she was afraid that she and Shen Meizhuang would cause trouble for Shai Yuxuan, so they avoided even meeting each other and didn't want to see her.

But now the emperor took the initiative to seal her in Broken Yuxuan and was not allowed to go out, and he was busy pretending to be a close sister to her, hoping that she would bring Shen Meizhuang more to Broiled Yuxuan. It was really ridiculous.

It's a pity that in the end, the person who will be treated as a tool and a laughing stock will only be Zhen Huan, who claims to be a contemporary female Zhuge, instead of her and Shen Meizhuang.

When she thought of the fetus in Shen Meizhuang's belly, An Lingrong couldn't help but smile in a low voice.

In this life, she will treat those who are sincerely good to her and keep them safe and healthy for the rest of their lives until the end.

"Turn to Zhu Pavilion and lower Qihu——"

Listening to the song coming from not far away, An Lingrong covered her mouth and smiled even brighter.

The sound of this song meant that the emperor not only saw Xia Dongchun, but was also attracted by Xia Dongchun's voice as she practiced vocal music alone.

The emperor escaped Zhen Huan and Yu Ying'er, but he couldn't escape her carefully planned summer, winter and spring!

Presumably after tonight, Xia Dongchun will be able to get the title of Lady Miaoyin.

With a smile full of spring breeze, An Lingrong carefully looked for the small portrait of Zhen Huan hanging on the branch of plum blossom, left the Yimei Garden, returned to the palace banquet alone, and chatted with Shen Meizhuang about what she saw and heard tonight.

When the banquet was almost coming to an end, An Lingrong happened to let the little statue stained with the fragrance of plum blossoms fall next to Prince Guo.

At this time, Prince Guo was drunk a lot because the emperor was not present. When he lowered his head and tried to escape from the drinking, he discovered the small statue on the ground.

Looking at the blurry little statue above, which looked like Chun Yuan, King Guo couldn't help but pick up the little statue and stuff it into his arms.

This scene happened to be watched by An Lingrong and Cao Bin, who was teasing Wen Yi.

Concubine Cao was puzzled as to why Prince Guo's lowering of his head and raising his head became a bit wretched, and he was no longer as handsome as before.

Especially when he picked up something unknown on the ground and stuffed it into his arms subconsciously, Concubine Cao frowned in confusion.

Seeing this, An Lingrong smiled and said: "The clan members deliberately threw something to Prince Guo. Sister Cao has good eyesight. I wonder if you can see clearly what it is?"

"The empress is joking. Ever since I gave birth to Wen Yi, my eyes have not been as good as before. How could I see what Prince Guo is carrying?"

Cao Qinmo became suspicious. She felt that An Lingrong seemed to know what Prince Guo was carrying in his arms.

But Cao Qinmo felt that it had little to do with her, so there was no need to waste time asking about the origin of that thing.

"That's such a pity. We can't go over and ask Prince Guo in person. The emperor will definitely be jealous when he sees it."

An Lingrong laughed a few words, which dispelled Cao Qinmo's doubts.

Cao Qinmo smiled, hugged Wen Yi and handed it to the wet nurse beside him to take care of him.

"Ms. An Bin, I see it's getting late and the wind is getting stronger. Why don't we get together and go back together?"

"So, very good."

At the same time, inside Broken Jade Pavilion.

When Huanbi and the others saw Zhen Huan coming in distractedly, followed by an unfamiliar palace maid, they couldn't help but look at each other in shock, and asked repeatedly: "What's wrong, little master?"

Huanbi poured the tea quickly with her eyes and hands, and Zhen Huan drank it in one gulp before she regained her breath and said, "It's okay. I met the emperor and Lingrong when I went to Yimei Garden. The emperor was afraid that I would recover from a long illness, so he asked me to come back first."

When everyone heard this, their faces showed joy, subconsciously thinking that the emperor liked Zhen Huan, and Sui Yuxuan was about to undergo a change.

Only Yu Ying'er, who had a glimpse of Zhen Huan's expression, curled her lips and turned around without any hesitation to leave the small and remote Broken Yuxuan.

Immediately afterwards, Zhen Huan said she felt a little unhappy and returned to the room first.

She always felt uneasy as if something was missing in her heart, so she had to sleep first and wait until early tomorrow morning to see if Eunuch Su came to announce his will.Everyone also dispersed.

In the middle of the night, Zhen Huan suddenly sat up in shock. She remembered the little statue hanging in the Meiyuan Garden!

That thing cannot be picked up by outsiders, especially eunuchs and maids, who can easily make the emperor suspicious.

Thinking of some bad rumors in the palace, Zhen Huan, regardless of the depth of the night, immediately sent Liu Zhu to go to Yimei Garden to see if the little statue I had hung to pray for was still there.

Liu Zhu, who was focused on Zhen Huan, didn't dare to ask why, so he immediately changed into thick clothes and went out.

As soon as she left, everyone on duty at Suiyuxuan was alarmed, and Zhen Huan could only say that she had a nightmare and woke up.

After a long time, which seemed like a long night, Liu Zhu finally came back. She was confused and said: "My lord, I have been looking for my little lord for a long time but I can't find my little statue. I'm afraid it was blown away by the wind. "

Hearing this, Zhen Huan's heart felt as if cold water had been poured down on her head, and she was stunned for a long time without making a sound.

Liu Zhu, who didn't understand the turmoil in Yimei Garden today, thought it was unlucky for the little master to lose his statue, so he became depressed and hurriedly tried to comfort Zhen Huan by telling jokes for a long time, trying to make Zhen Huan happy.

Zhen Huanqiang, who felt unhappy, cheered up and comforted Liu Zhu, telling him to go to bed early and go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs early tomorrow morning to collect the New Year's permanent quota.

Liu Zhu jumped away without any hesitation.

Only Zhen Huan was sitting on the bedside, constantly talking about whether the little statue was blown away by the wind or that some palace maid saw Jing Jing and picked it up to play with, and she might throw it away later.

Tonight, Zhen Huan has no sleep, but someone is spending the night with the emperor.

Early the next morning, the concubines in the harem learned that the emperor not only favored Xia Dongchun and the Xia family last night, but also inexplicably asked Su Peisheng to convey his will.

It was said that Wan Changzai of Sui Yuxuan was not in good health and she could just stay in Sui Yuxuan to recuperate if she had no important things to do. She did not need to go out and visit the queen every day.

This purpose was so ambiguous that others could not tell whether Wan Changzai was favored or not, and whether the emperor's concern was true or false.

However, the gossips from others could not reach Yongshou Palace. Last night's biggest winner, An Lingrong, was putting on makeup, and then took Baojuan and Baoping to visit Shenmeizhuang and the child in her belly.

An Lingrong had privately asked people from Tai Hospital to find out Shen Meizhuang's fetus. Judging from the signs, this fetus was probably a princess.

Therefore, An Lingrong ordered the imperial physician to release the news, which reached the ears of Concubine Hua, the Queen, and the Queen Mother.

Everyone knew that a princess was a princess, and even if she was favored by the emperor, she would be granted the title of princess at most, so that she would not be able to stir up trouble, so they were slightly less inclined to have an abortion.

At least on the surface, no one was stupid enough to poison Shen Meizhuang and the precious child in her belly.

This is the benefit of having a family background.

If An Lingrong was pregnant with a child, there would be many people who wanted to have an abortion, regardless of whether it was a prince or a princess.

After all, An Lingrong's mother's family was not favored. No matter whether they succeeded in aborting the baby or failed, it would not count until the baby was born.

Because it is impossible for the emperor to break up and directly let the concubine who holds a high position and "unconsciously" framed An Lingrong be punished.

At most, he would be demoted by a rank and banned for a period of time.

Arriving at Cunju Hall, An Lingrong entered the door after the announcement, raised the curtain and entered the Nuan Pavilion, where she found that Shen Meizhuang was having breakfast with a sad face.

She smiled half-heartedly and said, "Sister Mei, I have a strange thing that I want to tell you."

Shen Meizhuang held his head, rubbed his belly, and said listlessly: "Except for Huan'er's good news, I really don't have the energy to listen."

An Lingrong was not annoyed. Shen Meizhuang would not let go of his worries until he saw Zhen Huan's true face. She smiled lightly and said, "It has something to do with Sister Wan. I wonder if Sister Mei still wants to hear about it."

"Lingrong, sit down quickly. Is the emperor planning to see Huan'er again?"

Turning on the hand stove in her arms, An Lingrong said: "The Emperor and I did meet Sister Wan last night, but she was a little disheveled and claimed to be a slave of Yimei Garden. She did not dare to see the Emperor, so the Emperor..."

What she told was the truth, and if she told it to Shen Meizhuang, she wouldn't be afraid of him sending someone to Sui Yuxuan to question Zhen Huan.

Listening to An Lingrong describe Zhen Huan's look that day, Shen Meizhuang frowned and shook his head in confusion: "What is Huan'er doing? She is timid and not as cheerful as before. She is more like Lingrong when she participated in the draft. "

Shen Meizhuang, who later realized that he had said the wrong thing, covered his mouth, looked apologetically at An Lingrong, who looked normal, and said: "Lingrong, I didn't mean that..."

"Sister Mei, speak frankly. I know this, so I will put aside Sister Wan's matters for now." An Lingrong glanced at the snowflakes outside the window and said with a smile: "The emperor somehow fell in love with Xia Dongchun again, Xia Chang Yesterday, I asked Xia to sleep with me, and today I personally gave her the title Lady Miaoyin, which shows that her singing voice is much more beautiful than others."

Shen Meizhuang thought about it carefully and found that although Xia Dongchun was more aggressive than Concubine Hua, her brain was not as good as Concubine Hua. Even if she was overturned by the emperor and got a nickname, it would not hinder her and An Lingrong's status.

Thinking of this, Shen Meizhuang was shocked again. She found that she had started to put herself and An Lingrong first.

Huan'er's figure seems to have faded from my mind, and it is no longer as important as before entering the palace.

Biting his lower lip and looking at the nearly four-month-old child in his belly, Shen Meizhuang said calmly: "It's common for the emperor to fall in love with the Xia family. After all, the newcomers in the palace, except Chun'er next to Sui Yuxuan, , there is only Xia Dongchun."

An Lingrong took over the conversation and said, "Sister Mei is still as reasonable as ever, as if Xia Dongchun should be loved by the emperor."

Shen Meizhuang lowered his head and stroked the embroidery on his dress, and then said slowly: "Then the emperor loves her very much now?"

An Lingrong smiled and said nothing, and the two-inch long gold-wired floral armor on her little finger gently tapped the table.After a long while, he said: "The emperor is also a newbie for a while. Besides, even if she is betrayed by the emperor for a week, she can't be compared with Empress Hui, can she? The little princess in her belly?"

Mei Zhuang smiled and said, "I know this, but Huan'er was not happy when she heard that Xia Dongchun was favored."

I was slightly surprised: "What does Sister Mei mean by this?"

Shen Meizhuang tilted his head and said, "It has been so long since she has been in the palace, but the emperor has not summoned her yet."

After she finished speaking, she thought of Huan'er's noble attitude of avoiding the emperor and not wanting to be his concubine, and sighed slightly, "It's okay if someone else accepts the favor, but it's Xia Dongchun who had a conflict with you and her, so she naturally feels uncomfortable."

An Lingrong almost couldn't help but smile, directly exposing Zhen Huan's true face, and continued to pretend to be confused, and affirmed: "Is it because Sister Wan herself is unwilling to accept the favor?"

Meizhuang looked at An Lingrong in confusion, as if he was telling her, but also as if he was telling himself.

"How could it be? Although Huan'er has a gentle face and has never been out of Suiyuxuan since she fell ill, she still wants to be favored, right?

After a pause, she continued: "Otherwise, given Huan'er's family background, why would she enter the palace with me and serve the emperor? Wouldn't it be wonderful to find a good man to marry?"
