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

Even Jin Xi, who usually doesn't like to gossip, said, "Concubine Hua was so angry when she saw that the empress was so favored."

As she said that, she laughed and said bluntly: "It's better to make her angry, so that she doesn't know the importance of the emperor in the emperor's heart and plots to kill the emperor one after another."

Baoping held An Lingrong's dress and gently smoothed it and hung it up, and said, "The Emperor has always been very kind to our empress."

When An Lingrong heard this, her heart felt slightly warm, but also slightly cold.

Just after changing into pajamas, I heard footsteps outside the door. I thought it was the eunuch spending the night outside, so he said, "It's getting late, go and close the palace door and have a rest."

I didn't expect it, but it was Su Peisheng's voice, saying respectfully: "It's my fault to disturb Concubine An's sleep."

Hearing Su Peisheng's voice, An Lingrong couldn't help but wonder why he was here so late. She asked Jin Xi to open the door and said, "I haven't gone to bed yet. What's wrong with my father-in-law so late?"

When Su Peisheng saw Jin Xi, his face became a little more happy, and he continued: "The Emperor has something that I must pass on to Concubine An. I hope Concubine An has a good night and a good dream."

With that said, Su Peisheng handed it to Jin Xi with a smile and asked Jin Xi to hand it to An Lingrong.

Placed on the table is a wooden box made of very fine red sandalwood with gold accents.There is a seal on the opening of the box, with a big seal written on it.

Next to it is an inscription written by the emperor in five small characters: "Bless An Lingrong An Fei".

Su Peisheng just laughed and said from a distance: "Concubine An, please open it and have a look, so that I can go back and recover."

An Lingrong felt a little confused, but the person who came was Su Peisheng after all, and she was embarrassed to refuse.

After doing so, there was a concentric knot of green silk ribbon in the box. The knot pattern was twisted and convoluted, and the buckles were intertwined with each other. The weaving was strong and full, and it was obviously carefully woven.

Not only that, the emperor seemed to be afraid that An Lingrong would hear too much unofficial history and distort his good intentions. There was a small poem next to the concentric knot: "The music and wine compete in the autumn club, and the flute and drum welcome the wedding."

It tells the scene when a woman gets married, and the wedding dress that represents the woman is completely different from the current wedding dress.

When women get married, they wear green wedding clothes, and men wear red wedding clothes.This combination of red and green must be the preference of this dynasty.

This also means that the emperor's gift of this thing will not affect his relationship with An Lingrong, nor will it be a source of gossip, causing others to spread negative rumors of discord between the emperor and the empress.

Seeing this, An Lingrong smiled unconsciously and said after a moment: "Please, father-in-law, thank the emperor for me."

Su Peisheng just smiled, nodded and said, "Yes, I congratulate Concubine An."

After saying that, he retreated with Jin Xi and others.

An Lingrong touched the green concentric knot in her hand and couldn't help but sigh that the emperor was thoughtful.

In ancient times, green was not only a symbol of dignity, but also a symbol of happiness.

In many allusions, when many women get married, they wear green wedding clothes, hold their husband's hand, hold his son's hand, and grow old together with their son. Green creates one love story after another.

Of course, the most important thing is the status of green representatives.

The moonlight was like intoxicating beauty, and through the ice-patterned window screen it seemed like a milky white mist hanging on the ground. An Lingrong placed the knot beside the bed and fell asleep peacefully.

Early the next morning.

An Lingrong got up early and slowly combed her long hair in front of the mirror.

Now that she has been promoted to a concubine, she has all the concubine ranks and even exceeds them. If she wants Meizhuang to be promoted again, Concubine Hua must be demoted.

As for Concubine Duan who had helped her, she seemed to care more about Princess Wen Yi's custody rights than her status.

Twisting a lock of hair in her hand, An Lingrong fell into deep thought.

Not long after, she looked in the mirror and saw someone outside the window behind her, who was busy playing with flowers and silk and turned around to come in.

Before An Lingrong could speak, Baojuan smiled and said: "Your Majesty asked the father-in-law in the flower room to send some pots of newly bloomed purple chrysanthemums. I want to ask your Majesty if you want to see them now?"

An Lingrong actually doesn't like chrysanthemums very much, but she doesn't dislike them either.

After thinking about it, she asked Jinxi to send the things to Meizhuang for care. She would explain the matter to the emperor in the evening.

Baojuan received the order and asked someone to take the flowers to Meizhuang.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, An Lingrong and others quietly went to find Cao Qinmo from behind.

Cao Qinmo, who thought that An Lingrong left suddenly, was demoted and angered Concubine Hua, was very surprised. Because of Wen Yi's incident a few days ago, she was always a little uncomfortable.

Only An Lingrong, wearing a hypocritical mask, just shook her hand cordially and said, "I miss the princess very much, so I came here specifically to see her. Isn't it that Mr. Cao doesn't welcome her?"

Seeing that An Lingrong said it politely, it didn't sound like she was being arrogant and looking for trouble.

Cao Qinmo, who was worried about how to regain her favor, naturally would not refuse the olive branch offered by An Lingrong. She hurriedly let An Lingrong in, ordered the palace maid to bring fragrant tea to the guests, and said: "How could it be possible? Day and night, I thought about Concubine An. Come and sit here, I'm just afraid that the queen will be angry and the concubine will be confused for a while."

An Lingrong sat down with her, took the tea offered by the palace maid with a smile, slowly blew away the floating foam, and said: "Cao Guiren said this to make me embarrassed. What happened that day was just a misunderstanding. I The palace is just afraid that Mr. Cao will still hold a grudge, so he came here specially to resolve the knot with Mr. Cao."

"We all serve the Emperor together. We should not distinguish between each other. How can we hurt each other's feelings because of a small misunderstanding?"

Cao Qinmo was not angry when she heard that An Lingrong no longer called herself sister, but called her "my wife" and called her "noble" again.

She nodded repeatedly and said, "That's exactly what I said."

As he spoke, he touched An Lingrong's hand, and a moist light burst out from the corner of his eyes, "Although I am a few years older than my sister, I am a confused person. After listening to that bastard's bastard words that day, I was in vain. Anfei suffered such a huge injustice."

"Fortunately, the emperor was merciful and found out the truth. He promoted his sister to a higher position and demoted his concubine's position as compensation."

An Lingrong blinked her eyes, knowing that she shouldn't make things too clear.

So, she said softly: "Those palace maids are too talkative, and they have made our sisters fall apart. I have nothing to do with Sister Cao. My sister only cares about the princess, and caring will only cause chaos."

Cao Qinmo sighed: "I didn't expect that in such a big palace, my sister would understand me best. I only have one daughter, Wen Yi. Naturally, it is my dearest child's pain. She is also in trouble, so it's hard for me not to worry about her. In such a panic, I have wronged my sister's previous good intentions, and I hope my sister will forgive me as a mother."

An Lingrong smiled and said: "Don't mention what you said in the past. It's really presumptuous to come over to see my sister suddenly today. It's better not to be weird."

The two of them were very affectionate, as if they had never had any quarrel.

After a while, Cao Qinmo asked the wet nurse to carry Wen Yi out and gently put her into An Lingrong's arms.

An Lingrong hugged Wen Yi for a while, then pulled Cao Qinmo and said quietly: "My sister has two things to give to her, but it's not convenient here. Can I go to the inner room?"

Cao Qin thought for a while and then agreed, entering the inner room with her.The inner room was very dark and cool, with layers of gauze curtains hanging silently to the floor.

There is a rose purple brocade thin quilt on the bed, and a few new flowers are sparsely inserted in shrugged pastel vases on the table in front of the bed. It is not very luxurious.

An Lingrong took out a small enamel-inlaid gold box from her sleeve and said, "This thing is enough to keep my sister back in favor, but the premise is..."

Cao Qinmo was slightly surprised to see An Lingrong being so straightforward and said, "Sister, what are you doing?"

With that said, An Lingrong sat down, took the box and opened it to take a look.

Her expression changed to surprise the moment the box was opened, and she said bluntly: "I can never accept such an expensive gift. My sister should take it back."

An Lingrong was not frightened by Cao Qinmo's words. She looked directly at the other party and said with a smile: "Shuhen Glue is not only used to heal scars, but also to remove bones and smooth skin. The red rash on the Queen's body is caused by What is good, a smart sister should..."

Cao Qinmo carefully put down the box and said softly, "If Concubine An has anything to say, just say it. If I can help, I won't refuse."

An Lingrong raised her head, and the murderous intent in her eyes frightened Cao Qinmo.

"Not long after, noble Fucha will give birth. Considering Fucha's mother's family, if this baby is a prince, Sister Cao and Wen Yi will..."

Some things cannot be said too bluntly.

Moreover, she was not targeting the fetus of a wealthy nobleman, but the queen, Concubine Hua, and Cao Qinmo in front of her.

Cao Qinmo frowned slightly and said bluntly: "Everyone in the harem is watching the fetus of a noble man. If you want me to..."

An Lingrong interrupted Cao Qinmo and said, "We don't need to do anything. We just need to go with the flow when we meet the right opportunity. It's not difficult to do."

After several rejections, Cao Qinmo understood An Lingrong's thoughts, accepted the adhesive tape with a smile, and placed it on the dressing table in the inner room.

After chatting for a long time, An Lingrong stood up and left.

After leaving the palace gate and arriving at the Yongshou Palace, Jin Xi made sure there was no one around and said, "Why are you so sure that Cao Qinmo will accept the Shuhen glue you gave me?"

After talking to Cao Qinmo for a long time, her mouth was dry and her tongue was dry. An Lingrong picked up the teacup with blue and white branches and drank half of it in one go.

The long nails were dyed with impatiens just last night, and they are bright and bright in front of my eyes.

An Lingrong glanced at her casually, then stopped her gaze and said leisurely: "She has been under Concubine Hua for a long time and she doesn't dare to overstep the mark. I see that she abides by her duties in food and clothing, even in the inner room." , you know she has never used such expensive ointment."

"Besides, it's really rare to find Shuhen Gel. Everyone knows that the Queen had a rash. Especially after she went to bed, her skin was moist and juicy. She looked several years younger, which made the Emperor nostalgic. Such factual examples are in front of us. , which woman in the harem would refuse? Even if she is wary of me, she will not be willing to throw away this ointment."

"Not to mention, for the sake of Princess Wen Yi's body, I took some good stuff and ground it into powder, brewed it and gave it to Princess Wen Yi to drink. Cao Qinmo would never plot against the princess again. She was just captured by Hua Hua. It’s just a poor mother who was forced by the concubine.”

An Lingrong put down her teacup, smiled, and exhaled: "Those who can't let go of their glory and wealth will never achieve success."

Jin Xi said: "Your Majesty is confident, so I can rest assured."

After saying that, he smiled and said: "I have been with you for almost a year. I am impressed by my ability to guess the subtleties of people's hearts."

An Lingrong said calmly: "How can you guess people's hearts? It's just that you think more before speaking."

After saying that, he sneered slightly, "The human heart? That is the most difficult thing to guess. With my little knowledge, I can guess it, but it is difficult to guess it accurately."

Jin Xi smiled and said, "It's enough for your Majesty to guess the Emperor's thoughts accurately."

An Lingrong cherishes her nails, and she also cherishes her fingers for making incense and embroidery.

She took off the armor and put it on, gently looked at a pearl inlaid on the golden armor and said: "In this harem, if you want to be promoted, you must guess the emperor's thoughts, but if you want to live, You must guess the thoughts of other women in the harem."

After saying that, An Lingrong raised her head and looked at Jin Xi: "Have all the arrangements been made?"

Jinxi said: "Yes, Baoping and Baojuan have arranged everything properly. No one else knows about it except the empress and Cao Guiren."

An Lingrong smiled lightly: "That's good, don't let down my box of catnip-smeared anti-staining glue, it's really a treasure."

When she got up early the next morning to dress up, Jin Xi helped her comb her hair into a bun, then picked a pearl lotus flower from the wooden tray filled with jewelry and shook it.

An Lingrong's tracing in the mirror is like a willow's thin eyebrows.

Time passed by like a stream of water between her fingers. She gained the emperor's favor and gained countless sharp thoughts, which grew like a sharp edge at the tip of her heart.

Baojuan said at the side: "Eunuch Su came over early in the morning and said that the emperor has left the morning court and wants to have breakfast with the queen. Don't forget it."

An Lingrong nodded and said: "Go and see how the dishes in the small kitchen are doing. I told them to make them exquisite and delicious."

While he was talking, the emperor had already walked in and said: "I have just gone to court and I am also hungry. There are good fruits and vegetables today. I have already sent them to your small kitchen and asked them to prepare porridge. Let's Let’s eat together.”

Jin Xi then led others to clear the table, and An Lingrong served the emperor and drank a bowl of fresh soy milk.

Not long after, the kitchen brought thin rice porridge, eight side dishes, and four snacks, which filled the table.

The emperor looked at the dishes and said, "It's very delicate. It makes you appetizing just by looking at it."

An Lingrong smiled calmly: "As long as the emperor likes it."

Seeing that he was in a good mood and had a good appetite, and the dishes on the table were very colorful, he smiled and said: "The emperor seems to be in a good mood. Is there any happy event?"

He was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "We have won successive victories in the southwest war. Nian Gengyao led his army to retake Anzhao, You and six states. The Nian family contributed a lot."

An Lingrong originally had a happy smile on her lips, but when she smelled this, her heart gradually felt a little chilly.

The emperor wants to say more than this, it must be related to Concubine Hua.

So, she made a gesture of joy, raised the half-bowl of porridge she had drunk, and congratulated: "Your Majesty is wise and wise in strategizing. You are really very happy. I congratulate you with porridge instead of wine."

As he spoke, he took a spoonful of porridge, drank it, and smiled at him.

He pulled An Lingrong's hand and couldn't help but laugh: "Do you think Rong'er can escape drinking like this?"

An Lingrong greeted him with a faint smile and whispered: "The emperor will not allow others to make things difficult for them."

Some dynasties regard green as the most noble and red as the second most noble, so green is quoted here instead of this dynasty, or red is the most noble in the original work.

Of course, when the time comes to actually give something away, it will still be mainly red and gold!
