No matter what everyone thinks, An Lingrong actually doesn't care.

Because when she does things, she only cares about whether the final outcome is beneficial or not.

But she couldn't bear to see Concubine Hua looking so arrogant and domineering.

For this reason, she rarely put down her posture of directing the palace people to work, temporarily ignored the emperor's approving gaze, and said to Concubine Hua in an unassuming manner: "Perhaps Concubine Hua doesn't know something. I have an aunt, a young daughter, and a young son at home who need someone to take care of me. Not everyone has enough money to hire a wet nurse and servants to take care of her, so before I enter the palace, I know a little bit about it."

After saying that, before anyone could react, An Lingrong smiled brightly in front of Concubine Hua and the Emperor.

"Concubine, I forgot that Concubine Hua's brother was a general of the former dynasty, and his monthly quota was much greater than that of my father. The empress is quite favored by the emperor in the palace, so naturally she won't worry about money. ."

The emperor hates people who are greedy for money. When he first heard An Lingrong say this about Concubine Hua, he suddenly remembered that the expenses of Yikun Palace seemed to have always exceeded the queen's specifications.

Even if Concubine Hua had a dowry from her mother's family in the palace, after so long, that pile of dowry is not a hen that can lay eggs, so it should be used less and less.

Thinking of this, the concubines lowered their heads, not daring to look at the angry Concubine Hua.

"you!"

"The Queen Mother is here!"

"Little Master Fucha has given birth. He has given birth to an elder brother!"

The voices from three parties sounded at the same time. An Lingrong smiled and retreated temporarily.

The emperor stood up and first told the queen mother that Fu Chagui was born, and he was an elder brother.

Then, as soon as the smile on his face rose, he heard the midwife inside saying that her breathing was weak and she should try to pat him quickly.

Everyone was stunned and looked inside worriedly.

Only An Lingrong expressed her opinion appropriately, saying that the room was smelly and not warm enough, so it was not suitable for a weak premature baby.

The Queen Mother glanced at An Lingrong with a magnanimous look, helping the Emperor take care of the concubines and heirs, and listened to An Lingrong's opinions.

Then he looked at the empress, whose face was full of embarrassment and did not dare to look directly at him, and he suddenly had an idea in his mind.

According to An Lingrong's instructions, the newly born premature baby was placed in a sterilized and warm sedan, leaving a wet nurse who had washed her body and body to take care of her.

Always pay attention to the heartbeat of the fetus, feed the baby experimentally, press the little heart every half an hour, change warm water, and touch the skin of the premature baby.

The imperial doctors who came later heard An Lingrong's method and thought it was feasible, so the Queen Mother sent someone to do it.

An hour later, the wet nurse's voice came from the sedan. Although the fetus looked very weak, it was much better than before when it stopped breathing from time to time.

At this, everyone looked at An Lingrong in surprise, but An Lingrong smiled and said nothing.

Knowing that the newly born fifth elder brother could really survive, the emperor closed his eyes tiredly, took a breath, and then asked the silent Queen Mother why he came so late at night.

There was concern and inquiry in his tone.

The Queen Mother didn't waste any more nonsense and directly told everything about the pine nuts and the scapegoat doctor Zhang had found for the Queen.

Hearing this, the Queen breathed a sigh of relief and finally accepted the punishment given by the Queen Mother. She closed her door to think about her mistakes for the time being and would not allow cats to be raised in the future.

As for An Lingrong, who was good at saving her son, she was rewarded and praised by the Queen Mother. In front of everyone, she affirmed that once An Lingrong had a child, she would be Concubine An.

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Hua tried to stop her, but was beaten back by the Queen Mother.

After all, it was late at night, and the Queen Mother was old and couldn't stay up any longer, so she ended these matters quickly and went back to rest.Therefore, the biggest winner today is An Lingrong, and the losers are Concubine Hua and the Queen.

With the rich charismatic nobleman's lessons learned and the empress dowager's intervention, the concubines who were full of scheming stopped for a while.

Time flies, it is already deep winter, snowflakes are flying, and the entire palace of Emperor Ming is covered with snow.

The ginkgo branches are covered with snowflakes, like pearls, shining in the ice and snow.

On the east corner tower, a full moon illuminated everything in the palace as bright as day.

This is a winter covered by snow, everything is sleeping and there is silence. There is no chirping of birds, no prosperity of spring, only the concubines in the palace are keeping warm by the stove.

But even at night, it cannot conceal the magnificent scene of this palace.

On a snowy night, every building seems to be coated with a layer of silver, exuding a peculiar beauty.

An Lingrong's body became stiff considering that the concubines had been staying in one place.

In addition, she longed for the hot spring resort exclusively for winter.

After checking the remaining expenses in the palace with Meizhuang and finding that there was still a lot more, she took Concubine Jing and sat with the emperor for a while, explaining that everyone wanted to go to the hot springs to warm up. Just think of it as a new year and a new beginning.

For helping him save his fifth elder brother, who was sick and was born four or five months prematurely, that is, An Lingrong.

The emperor always helps when he can, and agrees when he can.

Especially when he looked at the account books of the harem, he found that a lot of expenses had been saved. In addition, a while ago, the officials in the court who fell into the book kept praising the emergence of wind-powered waterwheels, which made the people of Li people have enough to eat. Food and finances are much better than before.

Without any hesitation, the emperor decisively agreed to leave the palace and go to the villa to soak in the hot springs.

It's just that I can't stay there longer than the summer resort. It will take more than a month at most before I have to rush back.

An Lingrong and Concubine Jing looked at each other, smiled gratefully, and went out together.

Soon, everyone followed the carriage and went to the hot spring resort to bathe and enjoy themselves.

This time was different from before. The noble Fucha couldn't go out because of his child, and Cao Qinmo really didn't want to be implicated by Concubine Hua anymore, so he didn't go.

This also includes the frail and sickly Concubine Duan.

Therefore, the only people who went to the Hot Spring Resort this time, apart from a few people who were on An Lingrong's side, were Zhen Huan, Chun Chang Zai, and Hua Fei who maintained neutrality.

The hot spring resort is located between the earth's veins and mountains.

There are several natural hot spring pools in the villa, and the spring water in each pool has different effects.One of the spring water is clear and transparent, has the effect of moisturizing and beautifying the skin, and is exclusive to the emperor and empress.

The other spring water is milky white and is known as the holy product of skin beauty. It can remove skin toxins and make the skin radiant. It is exclusive to the concubine.

The water vapor emitted from the water in the pool fills the air with moisture and steaming mist.

Outside the hot spring, there are rows of small courtyards with various antique ornaments placed in them, making people feel warm and comfortable.

In the courtyard, there is also an exclusive and shared small soup pool, and even a small bath for the enjoyment of the servants.

The emperor divided the courtyard according to everyone's status, and paid special attention to Zhen Huan, who was pregnant with the child, and An Lingrong, who was constantly favored by the saints.
