Yun Ling looked at Xia Dongchun and nodded.

Xia Dongchun widened her eyes in disbelief: "How is it possible? Zhen Huan treats her so well, there is no reason..."

"I don't know why, but the relationship between An Ying and Wan Chang Zai is not as good as before." Yun Ling said, "It was because I heard that the scar-removing glue that An Ying gave to Wan Chang Zai contained musk that I was eliminated by An Ying."

"It's actually like this..." Xia Dongchun was horrified after hearing this. In her opinion, Zhen Huan treated An Lingrong well. They were not related to each other, but she helped her out on the day of the palace selection and had a close relationship with her after entering the palace. She could never have imagined that An Lingrong would actually harm Zhen Huan...

"So you don't need to worry at all," Yun Ling continued, "They will fall out sooner or later."

Xia Dongchun was silent for a long time before she murmured, "I didn't expect that she looked so weak and easy to bully, but she was actually so vicious that she could do something to Zhen Huan, let alone me who had argued with her on the day of the palace selection."

Yun Ling was worried that she would lose her composure and do something irreversible, so she quickly said, "Don't panic, young lady. It will take a while before An promises to serve you in the emperor's bedchamber. It's unknown when she will become Concubine An."

"So we must be on guard against An Lingrong. Even if we don't interfere with her on weekdays, we can't be sure that one day we will stand in her way." Xia Dongchun held Yun Ling's hand, "Among the people in our house, I only trust you. We can't trust the rest easily."

"Even if it's Qi Ling?" Yun Ling asked.

"Yes, even if it's Qi Ling." Xia Dongchun didn't know how to distinguish who he could trust. In that case, he might as well not trust anyone except Yun Ling.

Yun Ling nodded heavily, her eyes firm: "Don't worry, my lady, I've taken note of it."

Xia Dongchun thought for a moment and then said, "By the way, Yunling, do you still remember when Zhen Huan's illness was cured in the previous life?"

Yun Ling thought about it carefully. Some things happened too long ago. Moreover, in her previous life, she returned to the Yanxi Palace from the laundry department only after An Lingrong became a noble lady. Therefore, she only knew a general idea about many things. Her memory was a little fuzzy now. She only remembered that it seemed that Zhen Huan had not slept with him until after the New Year.

"I remember it was after the New Year," Yun Ling recalled with a frown, "Wan Changzai was ill for a long time and couldn't even attend the New Year's Eve banquet."

"I understand." Xia Dongchun also had an idea in his mind.

......

After dinner, Eunuch Xu from the Jingshifang came. Qi Ling, with a smile on her small round face, welcomed Eunuch Xu in.

When Eunuch Xu saw Xia Dongchun, his face was full of smiles, and his wrinkles were almost exposed: "Congratulations, young lady, congratulations, young lady, the emperor turned over your name card tonight, and the Fengluan Chunen carriage will come to pick you up later. The tutor aunt is also waiting, so you just wait."

It is neither too early nor too late to sleep with the emperor at this time. It is just the right time.

Therefore, Xia Dongchun was not that scared. He smiled and glanced at Yunling. Yunling immediately stepped forward and stuffed a bulging purse into Eunuch Xu's pocket: "Thank you, Eunuch Xu. This is for our young master to drink tea with you."

Eunuch Xu secretly weighed the weight of his purse and smiled even more happily: "Thank you very much, my lady, thank you very much, my lady, then I will take my leave first, my lady, you can get ready first."

Xia Dongchun said to Qi Ling: "Qi Ling, go and see Eunuch Xu off."

"Yes." Qi Ling agreed with a smile and said to Eunuch Xu, "Eunuch Xu, please come in."

After they all left, Xia Dongchun breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not bad, it's not bad, we won't be the most conspicuous ones, and we won't be unable to sleep with the emperor and be ridiculed by others."

"Yes, this time couldn't be better." Yun Ling was very happy. "Among the new ladies who have entered the palace, Concubine Shen and Concubine Fucha are the most proud. They have blocked some of the anger of Concubine Hua for us. Now it's your turn, Concubine Hua won't vent all her anger on you."

"Who said it wasn't?" Xia Dongchun chuckled and looked up at Yun Ling. "Besides, after tonight, An Lingrong will be the only one in our Yanxi Palace who hasn't slept with the emperor yet. With her temper, she will definitely act aggrieved, as if someone bullies her every day. But as long as I see her like that, I feel happy."

In Xia Dongchun's heart, the only person she really disliked was An Lingrong. After all, An Lingrong almost caused her to lose her manners in front of the palace on the day of the palace selection, and she also killed Yun Ling in her previous life. As for Zhen Huan and Shen Meiyu, to be honest, she didn't hate them that much.

"Alright, young lady," Yun Ling smiled, "you should pack up and prepare for the night. Don't let other unimportant people delay you."

"You're right," Xia Dongchun smiled, "Just wait and see. An Lingrong will probably cry to death tomorrow. Seeing everyone she lives with sleeping with her has sex with her, won't she faint from anger?"

"But..." Yun Ling hesitated, "Haven't Concubine Wan and Concubine Chun yet to sleep with him? An shouldn't be so anxious now, right?"

Xia Dongchun tilted her head and smiled as she met Yun Ling's puzzled gaze: "But Wan Changzai is unable to sleep with you due to illness, Chun Changzai is too young, and what about An Lingrong? She is not ill and is old enough."

Yun Ling was surprised and asked: "My dear, how come you are so smart all of a sudden?"

After saying that, Yun Ling opened her eyes wide and covered her mouth - it was over, why did she say what was in her heart in such excitement?

But Xia Dongchun was not angry. Instead, she looked at Yun Ling in surprise: "What do you mean suddenly? Haven't I always been this smart? You used to say that I inherited the intelligence of my father and mother."

Yun Ling stuttered: "Ah... I mean, my lord, you are smarter now."

Only then did Xia Dongchun nod with satisfaction.

Soon, the Fengluan Chun'en carriage arrived and took Xia Dongchun to Yinzhen's bedroom.

After everyone had left, An Lingrong leaned against the door frame and looked out, looking lonely.

Baojuan stood behind her and advised her: "My lady, it's late at night and the dew is heavy. You are weak, don't catch a cold. Come in quickly."

An Lingrong lowered her eyelashes and spoke in a low voice, "Baojuan, look, Sister Mei has served in the emperor's bed, and Noble Lady Fucha has also served in the emperor's bed. I originally thought that there was at least a Concubine Xia who was the same as me, but now, she has also been picked."

"Don't be discouraged, young lady," Baojuan comforted her, "The emperor is just busy with state affairs and can't take care of everything for the time being. Wasn't Concubine Xia forgotten by the emperor for nearly two months before he remembered her? Maybe tomorrow the emperor will turn over your name card, young lady."
