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

There was a light rain in the evening, but it cleared up in the evening, and the half-curved hazy moon hung in the sky, hazy and yellow as if it had been soaked in tears, and covered with a layer of wet mist.

An Ling endured her sleepiness and used a silver hairpin to flick out the candle that was about to go out. She watched the faint moonlight seep in through the Xia Ying window screen and vaguely sprinkle on the ground, shaking like a pool of clear water. The long shadow.

Several peach trees in the courtyard sprouted pink buds, which were timid and unwilling to pop up, but filled the entire palace with the joy of the coming spring.

Baoping yawned, but with a smile on her face: "Mother, wait a little longer. Maybe there will be a lot of trouble today and the emperor will come later."

An Lingrong nodded and ordered: "Get some cold water, I'll apply it on your face to wake you up."

Just as he was talking, he saw Su Peisheng swaying over and said with a smile: "I have asked Concubine An to wait for a long time. The emperor just came out of Yangxin Palace. He was originally going to come to Yongshou Palace, but Fu Cha The nobleman was unhappy, so the emperor went to the Yanxi Palace. No, let me report it to you."

Baoping felt a little unhappy at the moment: "Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Su. I just want to say that I should have told you a long time ago. Why did it take so long?"

Su Peisheng was like a little Amitabha, not annoyed at all.

"The Emperor is staying at the Yanxi Palace, so I have to go to the Minister's Office to record my stay. Since I only have two legs to go back and forth, I will be delayed."

An Lingrong smiled faintly: "It's good that the emperor rests, but he has a wealthy and noble man to attend him. It's late at night, and my father-in-law went out for a slow walk. Baoping will hold the lamp for Eunuch Su."

Su Peisheng waved his hand: "I don't dare to work anymore. I can leave on my own."

When Baoping saw that he had gone out, she bit her lip and said, "The emperor was just dragged away by the noble Fucha. What should we do?"

She is good at killing people and making medicine, and also knows how to observe people, but she doesn't know how to help An Lingrong snatch the emperor.

"How to do?"

An Lingrong looked at the long carved window. The fine vermilion grids, grid by grid, carved people's hearts into tiny holes.

But fortunately, she didn't love the emperor, so she couldn't say she was disappointed.

It's just that the noble Fucha repeatedly snatched the food from her bowl, which was a bit unreasonable.

What's more, it was her who saved the frail elder brother.

Thinking of this, An Lingrong gritted her teeth slightly: "There are ways, but not now."

There are many elderly people in the palace who want children. Since the rich lady is so anxious, she will find a way to give her a ride.

In order to prevent the elder brother who was saved by her from becoming a gun to help the Fucha family and oppress them in the future.

Baoping was so angry that her face turned red: "Why should the noble Fucha have sex with the empress? Just because of that half-dead person..."

"shut up!"

Baoping was too frightened to complain, so she just said aggrievedly: "This servant is apologizing for your Majesty. What is your identity? Even though Fucha looked so frail after giving birth, he rushed to serve the Emperor and robbed your Majesty of her good time!"

An Lingrong said coldly: "There are so many words to tell you to shut up. No matter how stupid Fucha is, he is still a serious nobleman. After leaving Yongshou Palace, if half a person hears your words like this, they will be dragged away immediately. Go to the Punishment Department and beat him to death."

"Don't always think that because you possess martial arts skills and have learned a few tricks of plotting against people, you dare not take blood drops seriously!"

Baoping felt angry and aggrieved when she heard An Lingling speak harsh words for the first time, so she could only lower her face and cry silently.

An Lingrong pondered for a long time. Seeing that she was still crying, she couldn't help but feel a little bit unbearable, so she lowered her tone and said, "You and Baojuan were trained by Xiangfang. How could I not know that you worry about me in everything?"

Baoping heard the sound and whispered "yes".

An Lingrong said softly: "What you are not happy with is exactly what I am not happy with either. But people's dissatisfaction can be kept in their own hearts. Once they are spoken out, it will become a joke to others. .”

After a pause, An Lingrong continued: "What's more, if you talk unforgivingly and involve the people the Emperor cares about, aren't you asking for trouble for yourself?"

Baoping raised her head and said, "I understand."

Baoping went out and walked outside the hall. She saw a dimly-haired moon, shaking the silk and went down the steps.

She is indeed not as good as Baojuan in this regard. She must learn more about speaking in the future so as not to implicate the empress.

In the room, An Lingrong held her chin in her hands and pondered for a long time. Jin Xi, who had arrived late, brought a bowl of eight-treasure porridge to her and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, you are always thinking about things, so drink some sweet porridge to moisten your throat."

An Lingrong waved her hand. Jin Xi looked at An Lingrong's face and said softly: "Actually, Miss Baoping is right. She is just too straightforward and puts everything on her lips. She is responsible for the empress." The heart is good."

An Lingrong said worriedly: "What she said is right, but the emperor is a human being, and it has been the hardest to control people's hearts since ancient times, especially when the rich and powerful nobleman has a weak brother in his hands. If I had known at the beginning, I should not have been soft-hearted. "

Jinxi knew that what An Lingrong said was angry, but she couldn't go along with Mao's words.

Jin Xi thought for a while: "Yes, there are many women in the palace, but there are very few who have children. If the emperor wants to take care of them one by one, he is actually neglecting them one by one.

An Lingrong was quiet for a moment, and an idea quietly came to her mind.

An Lingrong silently stared at the bowl of eight-treasure porridge, her fingers slowly gesturing on the table: "Jinxi, what do you think the emperor lacks most now?"

Jinxi clapped her fingers and said: "The emperor has a princess, an elder brother, a queen, and concubines. I feel that apart from the trivial matters of the previous dynasty, there is nothing unhappy with the emperor, and there is nothing missing."

An Lingrong pointed her finger there and said thoughtfully: "No, the emperor has something he lacks."

"what?"

"Family affection and belated maternal love."

After thinking about it, An Lingrong smiled. She already had a way to deal with the nobleman Fucha and the queen, and she was able to act as a bridge builder in advance.

So, she bowed her head and signaled Jin Xi to follow her instructions and spread some gossip into the palace to make a show.

Soon it will be the year when An Lingrong's assistant management of the Sixth Palace will be full, and there will be no mistakes.

Under the emperor's instructions, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has been busy decorating the Yongshou Palace and specially made new dishes and snacks for An Lingrong to taste one by one.

The emperor had asked people to enjoy a large number of ornamental utensils early.

Jin Xi stood in the corridor with An Lingrong and watched the eunuchs cleaning the yard and replacing it with the latest flowers and plants. She couldn't help but say with joy: "The emperor still has the empress in his heart. Even the days when the empress was in charge of the six palaces , the emperor is always thinking about it."

An Lingrong was only thinking about how to arrange the situation. She didn't speak for a while and was just lost in thought. In the evening, as soon as it got dark, the emperor came.

Before she could salute, the emperor stopped her and said apologetically: "Noble Fucha has been uncomfortable for two nights. I stayed with her and delayed you."

An Lingrong smiled gently and said: "Noble Fucha is in poor health after giving birth prematurely. It is right for the emperor to accompany her."

The emperor lamented: "She is not in good health right now, and she is still worrying about herself. She has been telling me that she wants to keep my brother by her side, and will not let the wet nurse and grandma I specially found to serve me forever."

An Lingrong's heart moved, and a thought suddenly slipped through her mind, and was gone before she could think about it carefully.

She and the emperor drank two glasses of wine, and the dishes prepared were also fresh and delicious side dishes.

The emperor took two bites of the noodles and praised: "The taste of fresh shepherd's purse at this time is really incomparable to anything else. Where did you find this? The imperial kitchen hasn't even been served yet."

An Lingrong smiled and said: "If you want something fresh, where can you wait for the imperial kitchen? I asked someone from the Imperial Hospital to pick it outside the city early in the morning. It was still covered in dew when it was delivered in the morning."

The emperor smiled and said: "It's hard for you to be willing to use this heart."

An Lingrong looked at him with a smile and said softly: "Isn't this what I am thinking about? Your Majesty eats well, sleeps soundly, and everything is amiable. That'll be fine."

The emperor smiled and took her in his arms: "Although I don't come here every day, I remember you in my heart. I always feel that I can calm down just by thinking about it."

An Lingrong smiled so much that her face dropped, and she lightly tapped the emperor on the shoulder. Then she stood up and bowed and said, "Today is the day when I, the associate minister of the Sixth Palace, will be full. I have a wish recently. I wonder if I can borrow it." Emperor Chrysostom, will he grant her a wish?"

The emperor smiled and helped her up and said, "I have been with you for many years. If you want anything, just tell me."

An Lingrong did not stand up to the emperor's hand, but just lowered her head and said: "No matter how high or low my wish may be, I ask the emperor to grant it."

The emperor smiled and said: "As long as you don't force me to make you the queen, the rest is not difficult. Tell me, do you want to be promoted?"

An Lingrong hurriedly lowered her head and said, "How dare I, my concubine, be so indifferent to your Majesty's wishes? My concubine's wish has nothing to do with me, but with the Emperor."

The emperor raised his eyebrows and said curiously: "Oh? Come and listen."

There was a moment of hesitation, not wanting to give the opportunity to her.

But thinking about the days after Zhen Huan came to power, An Lingrong bit her lip and let the words flow out clearly between her lips and teeth.

"I recently heard rumors circulating in the palace, saying that the emperor did not cherish the heir and focused on the status of the biological mother, which almost caused the heir to die unexpectedly. I beg the emperor to find an adoptive mother for him."

The emperor's eyebrows gradually twisted into the Chinese character Sichuan: "The person you are talking about is..."

"It's none other than the fourth elder brother, Hongli."

The silence was so long that you could almost hear the long sound of each other's breathing.

Seeing that the situation seemed to be out of control, An Lingrong added: "I feel that whether it is a biological mother or an adoptive mother, the grace of raising me is greater than heaven! I sincerely ask the emperor to find a suitable adoptive mother for my brother."

After a long time, the emperor finally said: "Rong'er is interested. Please get up. I will think about this matter carefully after I go back. I will give you an answer in a while."

An Lingrong stood up, and as soon as she sat down and had a few bites of food with the emperor, she heard the emperor say: "Does Rong'er have a suitable candidate in mind?"

An Lingrong replied instantly: "Concubine Duan and Concubine Jing are the most suitable."

Hearing this, the emperor looked at An Lingrong approvingly and ate his meal peacefully, no longer thinking of a cold war.

On the second day, the person who came to convey the order was the emperor's chamberlain. He beat Qian'er and said happily: "I have conveyed the emperor's oral instructions, please come to the queen's palace to see me as soon as possible."

An Lingrong stood up hurriedly and said: "At this time, I am urgently sending a message to this palace. Does your father-in-law know what is going on?"

The chamberlain hurriedly said: "I don't know, either. It's just that Eunuch Su and the servant came out together. He went to the concubine Jing to send a message. Concubine, please hurry up. The sedan chair is already waiting outside."

When they arrived at the Queen's Palace, Jianqiu had already lifted the curtain and was waiting on the side. When he saw An Lingrong, he smiled and said, "Empress An is here. Concubine Duan and Concubine Jing have also just arrived."

An Lingrong saw the queen accompanying the emperor, and Concubine Jing and Concubine Duan were sitting there, seeming to be talking and laughing, very harmonious.

When the emperor saw An Lingrong coming, he waved to her and asked her to sit down.

Then, he said unhurriedly: "You came here in such a hurry, are you not wet in the rain?"

An Lingrong agreed casually.

The emperor said seriously: "I am so anxious to call you to the Queen's Palace today because I have something to discuss with you."

Everyone answered yes.

The emperor added: "Today I asked about Hongli's homework and found that he had lost some weight, but he was in good spirits after wearing new clothes. Who would have thought that I just ordered him to write a few words, but the boy was not very lively." , just looking at the fruits on my case absent-mindedly."

The queen was slightly shuddered, and stood up hurriedly and said: "Your Majesty, please don't blame me. Hongli is still young. He was raised in a villa before. He was also distracted when he was reading and writing. I must let the palace people accompany me well. Such a thing It will never happen again.”

The emperor slowly took a sip of tea and said, "I thought so too. Children are always playful when they are young. Since they did not grow up in the palace, the rules and etiquette are naturally not as good as those of the third elder brother."

"But when I saw him pulling out his sleeves when he was writing, he actually had injuries on his arms. After asking again and again, I found out that he had injured himself on the rockery."

His face darkened, and then he said calmly, "But none of the people serving Hongli knew about it."

Concubine Jing ouched when she heard this and said: "Those slaves were too careless. How could they not see the scars after changing clothes for Hongli? Either they were too careless, or the clothes were not changed by them at all for Hongli." "

After Concubine Jing finished speaking, the Queen silently glanced at her, but she didn't notice it, and it all fell into An Lingrong's eyes.

An Lingrong calmly took a piece of pastry and ate it slowly. The emperor nodded and said, "What Concubine Jing said is good, because I found that the new clothes Hongli wore outside were temporary!"

The queen was full of guilt and uneasiness, and hesitantly said: "It's all my fault. They all said that Hongli was the child of his mother-in-law. When I first heard that he had returned to the palace, I felt particularly sorry for him, and even dialed more People to take care of.”

"Who knew that having too many people and too many hands would be bad? Your Majesty, don't worry. I'll wait for you to go there in person and punish those slaves as a warning to others."

The emperor said coldly: "Those slaves will be disappointed by me. You are not without intention. They are just bullying Hongli as a child without a mother. So after much thought, I still have to find someone for Hongli who can take care of him." mother."

At this time, Pang Daju completely forgot that it was him who did not care for his fourth elder brother first, which caused the queen to have other thoughts, and the palace people did not take good care of Hongli, who lived in a small building near the imperial garden.
