Ever since An Lingrong and Xia Dongchun complained about the Fourth Prince together that day, Huimin had been expecting their relationship to improve.

But this effect... can only be said to be better than nothing.

For several days in a row, there was a scene of mutual bickering like this.

It would be fine if the two of them didn't meet, but once they met, they would inevitably start to argue with each other. As they were still arguing, they would ask Huimin to judge between the two, which was annoying.

Fortunately, the emperor planned to hold a banquet in the next few days, and Huimin used this opportunity to distract the two of them.

An Lingrong's voice had been trained by the emperor before, and it was said that she looked 70% like Chun Yuan.

An Lingrong made full preparations and sang a song for Huimin first, which immediately amazed Huimin. The song was so lingering and charming that not only the emperor but Huimin herself loved it very much.

This singing voice is unrivaled in the world. Huimin is even curious about how heavenly the voice of Chunyuan is, whose singing voice is three points better than An Lingrong's.

She is a beauty, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Over the years, all her figures look like Chun Yuan, which is why the emperor has been thinking about her.

What kind of person is Queen Chunyuan?

Huimin was really curious about this person.

An all-round academic master?

But she was gone.

Huimin looked at An Lingrong in front of her and praised: "Lingrong's song is excellent. The next one will definitely be a big hit."

"It's not wine that makes people drunk, people get drunk by themselves. The emperor must be intoxicated by Ling Rong."

When An Lingrong heard Huimin praising her like that, she smiled shyly.

"Sister Min always thinks Lingrong sings the best and wants Lingrong to think she is the best singer."

This time, An Lingrong did not panic or think that she was unworthy. Instead, she smiled and teased.

"Sister always sees the good in Lingrong, as if all the shortcomings have disappeared."

When Huimin heard her say this, she just said:

"My younger sister is the most considerate and gentle person. Everyone has flaws, and my older sister has a lot of them too. But how could my older sister not know what kind of person Lingrong is?"

An Lingrong did not lower her head this time, but just looked at Huimin with her deer-like eyes.

"Sister is the best."

After that day, An Lingrong made a splash at the banquet as planned.

The song expresses the spirit of summer and confuses people's hearts.

The emperor was attracted by An Lingrong's singing and embraced her in his arms on the spot.

"Rong'er's heavenly voice, hahahahaha."

The emperor asked An Lingrong to sit next to him and was in a good mood.

If the emperor is happy, there will naturally be benefits.

"I remember Rong'er was given the title of Changzai around this time last year. It's time for her to be promoted to this rank."

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of several concubines present froze.

This promotion speed is really fast.

At a banquet, the emperor has a new love, so he is naturally happy. If the emperor is happy, the concubines naturally cannot be sad.

This banquet was spent with the concubines having their own ulterior motives.

Even for the next month, the emperor only summoned An Lingrong to sleep with him. This was a big deal and made everyone in the harem jealous.

"He was born in a humble family, but he was able to rise so fast. It didn't take long for him to become a nobleman."

This is the dissatisfied Concubine Xin. Although her mother's family is far away, her family background is still good. She has a princess and is also an old lady in the palace.

In terms of seniority and offspring, she should not be just a concubine, but the emperor had no intention of promoting her.

An Lingrong started out as a concubine and climbed up the ladder step by step to become a noble lady, surpassing Xin Chang. How could she be at ease?

"A small family can do things that women from our big families can't do. They have many ways to curry favor with the emperor."

This is the dissatisfied Fu Cha Peiyun. Now Fu Cha Peiyun is about to leave the confinement period, but the emperor only looks at the Sixth Prince and has no affection for her.

How could she feel at ease watching An Lingrong, who lived in the same palace with her, ascend to the throne?

……

The concubines talked about her behind her back and were merciless even in front of An Lingrong.

For a time, An Lingrong became the target of public attack.

Huimin always cares about An Lingrong's mood, but this time she found that An Lingrong was not that sad and lonely.

On the contrary, it is acceptable.

"Sister, Lingrong was able to climb to the position of a noble through her own efforts. They can say they are jealous, but if sister says Lingrong is worthy, then Lingrong will think she is worthy."

Although An Lingrong felt uncomfortable after hearing these words, after Huimin's previous encouragement, she no longer complained about herself, but became much more confident. Otherwise, she would not have argued with Xia Dongchun.

Regarding this matter, An Lingrong even said:

"Sister Min, maybe when I get promoted to the position of concubine, I can wear the pearl earrings you gave me."

"I watch over it every day, but I don't have the status to do so. I just hope that one day I can lead it openly."

There is hope in An Lingrong's eyes, anticipation for the future.

Looking at An Lingrong in front of her, she became less self-abased and less sensitive, and gradually got better.

Huimin was also happy for her and encouraged her:

"Sister is waiting for the day when you wear those earrings yourself. I believe that day will come soon."

Looking at the girl in front of her, Huimin couldn't help but think of the girl who was humming a song and embroidering with her head down when she first entered the palace. She was dressed in plain clothes and simple, but that was also the real her.

Now she is gradually becoming more confident and self-loving. As she gradually deviates from her original track, An Lingrong's life trajectory is also gradually changing.

Huimin looked at An Lingrong and thought it was truly magical.

People are multifaceted.

An Lingrong has an inferiority-complex and gloomy side, but also a trusting and dependent side.

Xia Dongchun has an arrogant and domineering side, but also a cute and proud side.

...Their personalities in the drama easily form stereotypes among people, and even Huimin got to know them based on their images in the drama at the beginning.

But as they got to know each other better, Huimin slowly saw the whole side of them.

They are not flat characters, nor do they have set lives, but they are full of life.

Xia Dongchun could easily be considered as a person who loves to pick on others, but at this palace banquet, Huimin was prepared to lend her a helping hand to win some favor.

But Xia Dongchun refused. "I'm fine now. I'll be happy when I go to Chuxiu Palace and you protect me. It's too risky to fight for the emperor's favor. I don't think I'm smart enough."

Xia Dongchun’s original words stunned Huimin, but she also understood it.

This is Xia Dongchun. Not only is she competitive, combative and argumentative, she also has her own way of survival.

It is not enough to rely solely on so-called experience and so-called prophetic plot. To survive in the palace, Huimin has relied on many of her own arrangements to get to where she is today.

Favor is like clouds and smoke. Huimin has seen the ups and downs in the palace, so how could she not know?

So from the beginning, Huimin was not fighting for this favor.
