An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan
Chapter 516 Objective Evaluation
Previously, she accompanied Zhen Huan and the others to Xianfu Palace, and later joined forces with Concubine Duan to interrogate Jiang Zhongmin. Although An Lingrong did not speak much, it did not mean that she had been sitting there watching the show.
When the matter was over, An Lingrong went back to her room with Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang to analyze the matter, which exhausted her energy.
Because of this, An Lingrong felt particularly tired this time, which was why she ordered her servants not to approach her so as to give herself enough time to rest.
An Lingrong didn't know how long she had slept. When she woke up again, she found that the candles in the room had been lit, and the view outside the window was pitch black. It was obvious that it had been dark for a long time.
"Are you finally awake?"
Just as An Lingrong slowly woke up, a deep male voice was heard from the side.
Hearing this voice, An Lingrong was immediately startled.
"emperor!"
An Lingrong had not expected that the emperor would come to her side.
After realizing what was happening, An Lingrong quickly stood up from the bed and was about to pay her respects to the emperor who was sitting on the small couch by the window.
"Okay, I know you've put a lot of energy into helping Wanpin today. Now it's just you and me, so there's no need for you to be so polite."
Yongzheng waved his hand at An Lingrong, indicating that she didn't need to be so strict with etiquette.
"I didn't know that the emperor was coming, and I didn't go out to greet him. I hope the emperor will forgive me!"
An Lingrong thought about how she had previously told Liuyun not to disturb her.
I guess it was because of this that the other party did not come to remind the emperor immediately after his arrival?
At this moment, An Lingrong regretted her previous oversleeping.
If she hadn't said that, perhaps she would have been woken up the moment Yongzheng came?
Then again, although Liuyun obeys his orders, it doesn't mean he is irrational.
Liuyun can naturally distinguish the importance of things.
Apart from his own orders, perhaps there were also orders that the emperor did not want others to know?
While An Lingrong was thinking alone, Yongzheng seemed to have anticipated her thoughts and said to An Lingrong, "Don't blame your maid. I decided to come to Yonghe Palace to see you on a whim. When I arrived, I saw that there was no one in your palace, so I asked the maid. After learning that you were exhausted, I didn't want to disturb you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration."
After hearing these words, An Lingrong's guess was further confirmed, and she immediately expressed her gratitude to the emperor again.
The two of them didn't say a few words before falling into silence.
An Lingrong originally thought that the emperor would go to Suiyuxuan to visit Zhen Huan tonight. After all, Zhen Huan was a victim in such an incident. Given the emperor's love for Zhen Huan, it was reasonable for him to go and comfort Zhen Huan.
In addition, Jiang Zhongmin was promoted by the Queen and was an indispensable executor of the Queen's plan. However, due to a series of coincidences, the plan was exposed prematurely.
Even if the Queen is now away, she will probably go find Zhen Huan. On the one hand, she wants to win her over and dispel her doubts. On the other hand, she also wants to show her virtue and magnanimity in front of the Emperor and the concubines in the harem.
That's why An Lingrong reminded Zhen Huan as early as when they separated.
Unexpectedly, after going around in circles, the emperor actually came to his own palace!
So now, isn't Zhen Huan already being targeted by the Queen?
Just when An Lingrong was lost in thought, Yongzheng seemed not to want to just stare at her like that, so he took the initiative to break the silence.
"I originally planned to go and see Concubine Wan, but I thought the Queen might want to ask her something, so I asked the Queen Mother to call them all to Shoukang Palace so that we can sort things out as soon as possible to avoid misunderstandings that would cause the concubines to talk about it!"
Yongzheng was not stupid.
Just like Zhen Huan and the others felt that the torn clothes were not an accident, to the emperor who was already very suspicious, some details would be magnified and interpreted even though it seemed like a trivial matter.
The downfall of Nian Gengyao led to the exposure of the Nian family. Although this happened in the previous dynasty, it is also inextricably linked to the harem.
Just like Nian Shilan, when the Nian family was at its peak, she was also favored by the emperor because of her brother Nian Gengyao, who was a general, and others were wary of her but could do nothing about it.
The defeat of the Nian family was not only due to the cooperation of the former dynasty and the harem, but the more important reason was the emperor's intentions.
In the process of overthrowing Nian Gengyao, the Zhen family behind Zhen Huan and the Guwaljia clan also made great efforts.
Yongzheng is now very obsessed with Zhen Huan and plans to further improve her status.
For some people with ulterior motives, this naturally became a reason for Zhen Huan to become a thorn in their eyes.
The auspicious clothes worn by the concubines when they were conferred titles were originally a kind of formal dress. They were made by the Imperial Household Department after receiving the imperial edict and issuing an order, and then the warehouse was opened to take out all the necessary materials. They were then carefully made by the seamstresses and embroiderers in the palace. They were not ordinary clothes.
It is impossible for the Imperial Household Department to be negligent in such a major event, let alone make such an obvious mistake.
Zhen Huan was his favorite concubine, and Yongzheng knew very well that she was meticulous and meticulous, so he managed the palace maids and eunuchs under him in an even more orderly manner.
Since it was impossible that something unexpected happened to Zhen Huan, the emperor's suspicious eyes naturally focused on the Imperial Household Department.
"I came to you this time to hear what you think about this matter."
The emperor's voice cheered An Lingrong up.
From Yongzheng's questioning, An Lingrong felt the other party's complicated mood at the moment.
Perhaps, the emperor also suspected the queen, but there was no real evidence at present. In addition, the queen was used to disguising herself over the years, so the emperor wanted to use other angles to support his inner guess?
"Reporting to His Majesty..."
While An Lingrong was trying to figure out the emperor's intentions, she also recounted how she and Zhen Huan went to Xianfu Palace to ask Concubine Duan and Concubine Jing to make the decision for them.
"Even after such an incident, you were able to remain calm and not lose your sense of order. You are indeed worthy of being my beloved concubine!"
The emperor couldn't help but narrow his eyes when he heard An Lingrong's answer, but he also expressed his approval.
When the Emperor learned that Concubine Duan had asked Jiang Zhongmin to order someone to make a new auspicious dress so that Zhen Huan could wear it on the day of her enthronement, he did not show any surprise, as he had obviously received relevant reports in advance.
Seeing that An Lingrong didn't seem to want to go into the details of the matter, Gong Zheng suddenly asked a question.
"Princess Yi, you and Concubine Wan have always had a very good relationship. In your opinion, is there anyone in the harem who harbors resentment or ill will towards her?"
The emperor's sudden question made An Lingrong's eyes flash.
