When An Lingrong came to Yikun Palace again, Concubine Hua's emotions had stabilized again.

After the scene was cleared, only the trusted members remained.

Madam Kong brought Songzhi to An Lingrong to express her gratitude: "This time, it is all thanks to you, young lady. We are truly unable to repay Jia Changzai's great kindness."

An Lingrong quickly helped Madam Kong up and said sincerely, "Madam, you are too kind. Lingrong's family has been blessed by the Nian Mansion. If it weren't for the Madam and the Nian Mansion, my mother and aunt would have to endure the torture of those concubines for who knows how long, and my brother would not have been able to receive the guidance of the great scholar. I should be the one to thank the Madam."

An Lingrong was telling the truth. With her father being a high-ranking official, he could not be invited to be a one-on-one teacher, even if he handed over a letter of invitation, the other party might not let him in.

Everyone in the palace was attracted to Zhen Huan. If there were any conspiracies or tricks, it would not be the turn of her, the "former favorite concubine". Moreover, she was a disciple of Concubine Hua, so the Queen did not dare to touch her easily.

Apart from reporting to Concubine Hua every few days, I spend the rest of my time watching the TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and learning some poems to cultivate my sentiments. Occasionally, when I get tired of studying, I take Baoshu with me to make incense to change my mind and earn some money.

An Bihuai at home is now the most well-behaved, and the people she cares about are also living well. An Lingrong is very satisfied with her current life.

It would be even better if I could absorb a little more dragon energy and earn some points.

Occasionally, she bought a few novels about later times. An Lingrong was very fascinated by the later times described by the system. She also wanted to learn some knowledge about later times.

It’s a pity that she hasn’t seen the emperor for some time, and she still owes the system points loan.

Apart from the complete set of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and those storybooks that she bought all at once when she took out a loan on impulse and took advantage of the promotion, An Lingrong could only look at the other things with envy and could not buy anything.

An Lingrong and Madam Kong exchanged some thanks and politeness, and Concubine Hua became impatient: "Okay, we are all family. How long are you going to keep being polite? Jia Changzai, please sit down quickly, we have important matters to discuss."

The world is big, but pregnant women are the biggest. After Concubine Hua said this, everyone started to get to the point.

With Zhou Ninghai guarding outside, he didn't have to worry about anyone hearing anything he said.

Just like when An Lingrong revealed the secret of Huan Yixiang, her family's current situation is entirely dependent on Concubine Hua and the Nian family. Only when the Nian family is doing well can her family be better. The fate of the An family has long been tied to the Nian family.

An Lingrong spoke first: "Concubine Wan has been favored for more than a month, including the time when she first came into the emperor's favor. There are complaints in the palace, and I heard that even the empress has advised the emperor several times. In this way, it seems that Your Majesty has been particularly patient during this period." She had to find a way to smooth things over.

"I've heard that some women have different symptoms when they're pregnant. Some women still have morning sickness when they're five months pregnant. Some women still have morning sickness symptoms right up until they're about to give birth. The Nian family heard that the queen has had such severe morning sickness that she's lost so much weight that they sent me to the palace to take care of her."

Nanny Kong is worthy of being the person who can help Madam Nian Gengyao manage the more than 80 concubines in his mansion without making any mistakes. This reason, combined with Concubine Hua's now thin and haggard face, is really convincing.

Hua Fei's expression was filled with disgust and hatred: "I don't want to see him anymore. I can't serve him like before. Even if the child is born in the future, I don't want to sleep with him anymore."

How could An Lingrong ever want to face the emperor's old face?

It’s a pity that she wants something more, so she can only endure the disgust and boredom and pretend to be affectionate in order to survive.

Helping others to accomplish things that she cannot do herself is also a kind of comfort.

"In fact, the temperament of pregnant women is the most difficult to guess. Your Majesty doesn't need to force yourself to please the Emperor. If the Emperor comes these days and you don't want to deal with it, then just blame it on your luck. As for later, I heard that giving birth is also called going through the gates of hell. Your Majesty was injured during childbirth, so it is reasonable that she can no longer serve him in bed."

Concubine Hua suddenly understood. Nanny Kong didn't have much contact with An Lingrong, so she asked tentatively: "In the days to come, I hope Jia Chang can say more good words for the queen in front of the emperor." Only by seeing the emperor more often can one speak in front of him.

An Lingrong readily agreed: "I understand what you mean, Ma'am. Lingrong is of a humble origin and really needs the favor of the Emperor in order to live a better life in the palace." She still wanted to fight for this favor.

However, Concubine Hua no longer cared: "There are so many women in this palace. If Jia Changzai is not favored, there will be someone else. If it is someone else, I would rather it be Jia Changzai. After all, she is on our side." Anyway, she would not serve in the emperor's bedchamber again, so whoever she loves is fine.

Nanny Kong briefly told An Lingrong about the family's plans for next year. An Lingrong didn't understand the affairs of the court, but she had read a lot of fan fiction and analysis.

It is said there that Nian Shilan's father Nian Xialing and elder brother Nian Xiyao both had great potential. Even Nian Gengyao was able to pass the imperial examinations and become a general in military affairs. Obviously, he was not a mediocre person.

Before, the emperor pretended to be too good, and they really thought he was a good person. Nian Gengyao even became arrogant because of the emperor's flattery.

Now that I know the secret of Huan Yi Xiang, if I think about it a little more, it becomes very intriguing how Hua Fei's previous child died.

Knowing that this person is not tolerant, they will respond accordingly.

Fortunately, it's not too late.

Knowing that she didn't have the brains to scheme for power, An Lingrong could only choose to believe it.

Believe in Kangxi’s strict selection, believe in the descriptions in so many scripts, and believe that the Nian family is indeed awesome.

There was nothing she could do except trust the Nian family. An Lingrong was inherently self-conscious, and she always felt inferior to her family background and family affairs. She felt that her origin was too low, and that she had no help from the previous dynasty or the harem; she felt that almost all of her relatives were a burden, and that these people who were obviously her closest relatives were always like a heavy burden, pressing her to the point of suffocation.

She even has low self-esteem. She is not as dazzling and confident as Concubine Hua; she is not as proficient in poetry and literature as Zhen Huan; nor is she as dignified, elegant, and calm as Mei Zhuang.

She only knew some minor skills like making incense and singing songs, which were not presentable enough, and even the ice skating she learned later was just for entertainment.

As she thought about it, An Lingrong's envy was about to turn into reality.

Her negative energy today has reached its peak. If she thinks any more, she is afraid that she will not be able to control the devil in her heart and will want to harm others again.

After returning to her own Yanxi Palace, An Lingrong took out the poems that she had asked Baoshu to find a few days ago and studied them very hard all night.

Learn! Learn!

As long as you keep yourself busy, you won’t have the energy to think about those messy things.

If she were to live her life over again, she would try to live as honestly as possible.

An Lingrong thought that it would be even better if she could get rid of those evaluations of her as "a rat in the gutter", "An Xiaoniao" and "a ungrateful wolf".
