I just want to live a happy life

The original owner had a talent for making incense. After Qingyue came to this world and became An Lingrong, she also had a talent for making incense.

Now that she has this talent, she must not let it go to waste, so she plans to try making incense more often in this life to see if she can create more interesting incense.

Three days later.

An Lingrong was still dressed like in the original plot, tacky but not noticeable. Besides, she was not the host today.

After leaving Anle Hall, she saw Noble Fucha and Xia Dongchun coming out of their residences respectively.

Because of her background, Noble Lady Fucha looked at people with a certain arrogance and ignored them.

After two days of resting her feet, Xia Dongchun's swelling has subsided a little, but she still has some difficulty walking.

Xia Dongchunqi wore a white flower on her head, which seemed to hint at something, but An Lingrong didn't care.

After seeing An Lingrong, she snorted coldly and rolled her eyes.

An Lingrong was in a good mood today and didn't take Xia Dongchun's behavior to heart. She didn't say anything and lowered her head, as if she was easy to bully.

An Lingrong followed Noble Lady Fucha and Xia Dongchun at a distance, walking slowly towards Jingren Palace.

Jingren Palace and Yanxi Palace are very close to each other and we arrived there quickly.

The newlyweds all stood outside the main hall of Jingren Palace. Zhen Huan and Shen Meiyu were standing at the front, talking, while An Lingrong was standing at the back, in a row with Fang Chunyi.

After waiting for a while, Jianqiu took them in.

They stood in a row in front of the Queen, who sat on the throne in the front, holding a ruyi in her hand. Except for Concubine Hua, all the other concubines had arrived.

The Queen and the concubines all focused their attention on Zhen Huan and Shen Meiyu who were standing at the front. An Lingrong stood at the back and was successfully invisible, and no one paid attention to her.

After standing for a while in the clogs, An Lingrong couldn't stand it anymore and felt a little irritated.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before Jiang Fuhai said, "Empress Hua is here."

Concubine Hua Nian Shilan walked in. She bowed perfunctorily to the queen and sat down.

An Lingrong clearly saw a flash of displeasure in the queen's eyes, but it quickly disappeared and a smile appeared on her face.

The Queen asked, "Why did Concubine Hua come so late today?"

Concubine Hua used the same words again, bragging about how much the Emperor doted on her. The Queen was already used to hearing this, and although she felt a little uncomfortable, she did not show any displeasure.

Due to Hua Fei's power, the concubines did not dare to show any displeasure in order to let Hua Fei see it.

The Queen and Concubine Hua had a heated argument, and then turned their attention to the newcomers.

The queen said, "Okay, the new concubines have been waiting for a while, let's get started."

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Fuhai's voice rang out: "All the ladies pay their respects to the Queen."

An Lingrong and other new ladies in the palace knelt on the ground. An Lingrong accepted it well and did not feel any dissatisfaction with the kneeling queen as she had been the queen dowager before.

Firstly, because of her current status, she has to do this. Secondly, in this era she lives in, she always has to adapt to different environments.

Although the queen was not a good person, she was the queen. She showed her gentleness, tolerance, dignity and virtue in front of everyone. She would not make things difficult for them. After the meeting, she told them to serve the emperor well and have many children, and then let them get up.

Although she wouldn't obviously embarrass them, she always had some tricks to disgust people.

After paying homage to the Queen, it was time to pay homage to Concubine Hua. Of course, the ceremony to her was not as grand as the one to the Queen. One just had to squat and bow.

Concubine Hua has a strong possessiveness. In her eyes, those who compete with her for the emperor are her enemies and her targets, but she has no good temper towards them.

Squatting on the ground, Concubine Hua and the Queen were engaged in another verbal battle. Concubine Hua was deliberately making things difficult for them, and the Queen knew it but just couldn't see it. She was about to say that the newlyweds should get up to show her own virtue and highlight Concubine Hua's arrogance and domineering behavior.

But then an accident happened.

With a cry of "Ouch", Xia Dongchun suddenly sat on the ground, frowning and crying in pain.

Both the Queen and Concubine Hua were very unhappy. In the Queen's opinion, this was the time when she wanted to let the new lady in the palace know that Concubine Hua was domineering, but Xia Dongchun was holding her back.

However, Concubine Hua thought that Xia Dongchun was dissatisfied with her. He just squatted for a while, but she couldn't stand it. It was a complete disrespect to her.

Concubine Hua subconsciously forgot that it was she who told Nanny Xia Dongchun that there was no need to teach her the rules properly.

Concubine Hua touched the earrings she was wearing today and asked, "What's wrong with Concubine Xia being here? You were just paying respects, and it's only been a short while, but you can't stand it anymore? Are you dissatisfied with me?"

Xia Dongchun looked at Concubine Hua's murderous eyes and quickly shook her head. She knelt on the ground and said, "I dare not. I just hurt my foot two days ago and I feel a little uncomfortable today, so I didn't squat steadily. Please forgive me, Concubine Hua."

When Concubine Hua heard this explanation, her anger instantly dissipated and she said, "So that's how it is."

Afterwards, she turned to look at the Queen and said with a smile, "If I remember correctly, Concubine Xia lives in the Yanxi Palace. The Yanxi Palace is so close to the Jingren Palace where the Queen lives. Why didn't you tell the Queen to let Concubine Xia be exempted from the formalities today?"

"Or... the Queen pretended not to know and deliberately made Concubine Xia look bad during the ceremony? And then..."

The Queen spoke up to stop Concubine Hua from saying the next thing: "Concubine Hua!"

Concubine Hua sneered, not afraid of the Queen at all, but she didn't say anything more excessive.

An Lingrong and the other newlyweds were still squatting on the ground. Neither Concubine Hua nor the Queen showed any intention of asking them to get up. However, An Lingrong was fine. She had a good physique and had practiced martial arts, so she was still squatting very steadily.

But the others were in a miserable state, their bodies were staggering and they were about to give up.

The Queen looked at Xia Dongchun who was still kneeling on the ground and smiled dignifiedly: "It is my fault for not taking good care of her. Jianqiu, go and help Concubine Xia up yourself, and then move an embroidered stool for Concubine Xia to sit on."

Xia Changzai gave the queen a grateful smile and said excitedly, "Thank you, Queen, for your consideration."

Xia Dongchun felt very happy. The Queen was so kind. It seemed that her initial decision to rely on the Queen was not wrong. She was so embarrassed today because of Concubine Hua.

This has nothing to do with the Queen's business. The Queen is the biggest master in the harem and she is so busy, how can she take care of her?

Concubine Hua ignored Xia Dongchun's attitude of licking the queen. There are really more and more idiots in the palace.
