After transforming into An Lingrong, he became the King of Juan and was crowned the Sixth Palace.

After Zhen Huan fell out of favor, the palace became much quieter.

Even if the concubines try their best to win the emperor's favor from others and make some small tempers, it is still a harmless and trivial matter.

Concubine Hua's status has risen again, and she no longer has the thought of teasing An Lingrong, Hui Pin and others.

They all breathed a sigh of relief and felt reassured.

Zhen Huan lost the right to leave Broken Yuxuan, so her family was naturally less lively than before. She hardly left the house except for the daily necessary calls for safety, and turned a deaf ear to all the concubines' whispers and cynicism.

In mid-May, the weather in Kyoto became increasingly hot. Due to the hot summer weather in the capital, emperors of all dynasties went to the Taiping Palace in Xijing to escape the summer heat before June every year, and did not return to Kyoto until early autumn.

The emperor's body was well taken care of by An Lingrong, and he was not afraid of the heat.

It's just that the ancestral system is such that most of the palace relatives are dear and intolerant of heat. In addition, the pregnant Fucha nobles are clamoring to go.

So when he ordered to go down, the Ministry of Internal Affairs had already made arrangements.

As usual, the emperor led his concubines, relatives, and officials in a grand procession out of the capital and stopped at the Taiping Palace.

Taiping Palace was originally rebuilt from the "Haoshan Garden" of Jingzong of the previous dynasty. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has excellent scenery.

In the current dynasty, when the country was peaceful and prosperous, pavilions and pavilions were built one after another on the old scenery of Haoshan Garden. After nearly a hundred years, it finally became the largest royal garden.

In addition to the queen, the harem was accompanied by only six or seven favored concubines. Concubine Duan, who usually didn't like to go out, was included in the concubine after An Lingrong specially arranged it.

It's just that Concubine Duan was in poor health and didn't get out of the car until she arrived in Xijing, deliberately avoiding the embarrassment of meeting everyone.

Although Meizhuang wanted to get close to Concubine Duan under An Lingrong's words, they were unable to meet her.

As for Zhen Huan, who was not favored and was banned, there was also Chun Changzai, who had never slept with her before, and remained alone in the palace with other concubines who were not favored.

An Lingrong spent all day in the palace these days, socializing with people. As soon as she left the vermilion hundred-foot palace wall, she lifted up the carriage curtain and saw the farmland of mulberry trees and the light smoke on the road. She smelled the freshness of wild flowers and weeds, and suddenly felt both physically and mentally. Relaxed and felt much happier.

The Taiping Palace was built according to the mountain topography of Gelu Mountain. There are gardens in the mountains, mountains in the gardens, lakes and dense forests. The scenery of the palace and garden combines the best scenery from the north and the south into one garden. The style is very different from that of the Forbidden City.

An Lingrong felt that living in the Taiping Palace was more relaxed than in the palace. Although the people were still the same and they were a little bored looking at each other, it was still much better than staying in the same place.

However, this time Xi was lucky enough to escape the summer heat. The Queen Mother did not like the trouble of raising troops and mobilizing a large number of people. She also said that her old body was silently worshiping the Buddha and she was not afraid of the heat, so she still stayed in the palace.

An Lingrong was a little disappointed with this.

I thought that if the Queen Mother was willing to come here to escape the summer heat, the decoctions, supplements, and special massage tools she had brought with her would be of great use.

What a pity for this car of good stuff.

However, An Lingrong then thought about it, and if these things could be used by Sister Mei and others, her efforts would not be in vain.

When he arrived at the place, the emperor chose the cool and quiet Nanxun Hall with green water as his sleeping hall according to the ancestral rules.The queen naturally lived in the Guangfeng Jiyue Palace, which had comparable etiquette.

Concubine Hua, whose status was second only to the queen and was accustomed to being domineering, chose a Yinhua Palace that was similar in size to Yikun Palace.

As the concubine Xiang who came with her to escape the summer heat, the young Wen Yi and the wet nurse lived in the Tongcao Residence next to the Yinhua Palace.

The next ones to choose the palace were the favored concubine Hui, concubine Jing and others.Concubine Jing knew that she had the opportunity to accompany the emperor to escape the summer heat because she was in the favor of An Lingrong and Concubine Hui.

Therefore, she chose to stay in Yuruntang with Meizhuang instead of separating.

There is a green bamboo forest in the Yurun Hall, with thick phoenix tails and thin dragons, which makes people feel happy just looking at it.

An Lingrong originally wanted to choose Yifu Pavilion. Jinxi inquired about it and there were large lotus flowers standing there when the door opened. The cool breeze came from the lake through the lotus leaves, which was pleasant and pleasant.

But the emperor knew that he was always afraid of heat, and he couldn't bear to live far away from his beloved whom he hadn't seen for several days.

So he asked Su Peisheng to place An Lingrong in the side hall of the water-green Nanxun Hall, where they could see each other day and night.

An Lingrong knew that this move would be too eye-catching, and was afraid that it would cause another disturbance.

However, the emperor issued an order and Su Peisheng could not go back to report to the emperor. An Lingrong had no choice but to give up and agreed to the emperor's request to name the matter.

Baojuan and Baoping walked in front to clear the way, spreading mosquito repellent powder on the ground to prevent mosquitoes from coming over. Jinxi always kept one step away and walked behind An Lingrong.

When we arrived at the side hall of the Water Green Nanxun Hall, we saw dozens of pots of jasmine, jasmine, magnolia and other southern flowers placed in the main side hall. Their stamens were white and lovely.

There is a wind wheel in each room to reduce the heat.

Following us, Huang Guiquan, the manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, stepped forward and said with a smile on his face: "The emperor knows that the young master likes to burn incense in the palace, but it is not suitable to burn incense to avoid the heat, so he specially ordered his servants to fetch fresh fragrant flowers and let them relax. Take turns to enjoy the coolness and fragrant fragrance.”

Under Huang Guiquan's operation, the wind wheel turned, the cool breeze blew, and the fragrance filled the palace.

Huang Guiquan said flatteringly: "There are none of the other mistresses. Concubine An is the first to receive this kind of favor in the palace!"

An Lingrong stood there, personally stuffing a banknote into Huang Guiquan, and said with a smile: "Manager Huang likes to joke, this is a place for the emperor to live, even if it is a side palace, it should be equipped with all these things. .”

Huang Guiquan was not upset at all when he was discovered. He smiled and took the banknote handed over by An Lingrong and said a few nice words of flattery.

At this, An Lingrong gradually stopped smiling, nodded slightly and said, "What Mr. Huang says is more pleasant than others. When the Emperor comes back, I will personally say a few good words for the Manager in the Emperor's ears."

Upon hearing that An Lingrong was ready to put in a good word for him, Huang Guiquan said quickly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, but I'm afraid the Emperor will go hunting later, so I'll take a rest and wait for the Emperor to come back."

Later, Huang Guiquan added: "It's still not hot today. When the dog days come, it will be very comfortable to put ice cubes from the ice cellar in the palace.

"The Emperor gave orders to our Ministry of Internal Affairs early in the morning that as soon as the Queen feels hot, she will use ice as soon as possible. How dare the servants not be careful?"

An Lingrong couldn't help but look at him twice, and then said with a smile: "Eunuch Huang is working hard. In fact, this mission can be done by just sending someone here. There is no need for my father-in-law to come in person."

Huang Guiquan said hurriedly: "How dare I take this responsibility? It is a blessing that I have earned over many lifetimes when I serve my mistress."

After saying that, he hurriedly bowed and retreated.

Baojuan looked at his figure and said: "This guy has learned a lesson. He saw that the empress lives in the side hall next to the emperor. Now he lives with his tail between his legs, for fear of being inconsiderate."

Baoping chuckled and said, "Even if he doesn't sit with his tail between his legs, who in this palace would dare to be rude to our concubine An Bin in Yongshou Palace?"

An Lingrong glanced at the two of them and said helplessly: "Just keep talking and fold some fresh lotus leaves to make soup." (End of Chapter)
