The Legend of Zhen Huan: Year after year, we share the spring breeze

An Lingrong got up early the next morning. Today was the day when the new concubines paid their respects to the queen, and they would also meet the ladies from various palaces today.

An Lingrong brought very few jewelry into the palace, and the rewards she received during these three days were also very small. Even if she wanted to dress up to look bright and pretty, she couldn't do it. She could only dress according to her position as a concubine.

After thinking carefully about the plot of the TV, An Lingrong finally had a clue in her mind.

Jingren Palace.

Jingren Palace is one of the six eastern palaces, facing south. It has a stone screen wall just inside the gate. The main hall is five bays wide, with a wide platform in front. There are three side halls on each side, three on the east and three on the west.

Empress Ulanara Yixiu was the niece of the current Empress Dowager and the daughter of Ulanara Feiyanggu, the Grand Secretary and Commander of the Infantry. She was a concubine during her time in the Imperial Residence, and became his successor after her sister Rouze's death. Upon the Emperor's ascension to the throne, she was crowned Empress and resided in Jingren Palace, ruling over the six imperial concubines and exercising great influence over the nation.

The newly arrived concubines gathered in the courtyard awaiting their summons. An Lingrong nodded quietly, noticing Zhen Huan's simple bun, without even a tiara. She was the only newly arrived concubine with a title, and having already caught the Emperor's attention during the selection, she needed to keep a low profile.

Several people lined up obediently in two rows, waiting to be summoned. During this time, An Lingrong finally recognized all the concubines who entered the palace this time.

There are seven newly promoted palace concubines this time, including Borjigit Noble Lady of the Mongolian Army Banner, Fucha Noble Lady Fucha Yixin and Chun Changzai Fang Chunyi of the Manchu Army Banner, Shen Noble Lady Shen Meizhuang, Wan Changzai Zhen Huan, Xia Changzai Xia Dongchun and An Changzai An Lingrong of the Han Army Banner.

An Lingrong quietly raised her eyes to look at the noble lady Borjigit, who had never appeared in the play.

Borjigit was a typical Mongolian girl, half a head taller than the other concubines. Her skin was not as fair and tender as the others, but a healthy tan. The Borjigit clan had been intermarried with the Qing dynasty since the reign of Emperor Taizong, as a means for the emperor to win over the steppe tribes. As long as they did not make serious mistakes, they could live out their lives in peace in the palace. However, due to concerns about Mongolian power, they were generally not favored.

Chun Changzai Fang Chunyi just turned fourteen. She is still childish and has some baby fat on her face. In the 21st century, she is still a middle school student who only knows how to act coquettishly. An Lingrong complained in her heart: You old pervert, you even don't let the children go. You can almost be their grandfather.

Before he could finish his complaints, he heard the eunuchs singing in unison: All the ladies pay their respects to the Queen.

The same plot as the previous life.

In order to highlight Concubine Hua's arrogance and domineering behavior, the Queen established a virtuous and generous character. In order to suppress the newcomers, Concubine Hua used jade as a metaphor to imply that they were not outstanding. Concubine Duan was still sickly, Concubine Qi was still brainless, Concubine Jing said nothing, Concubine Li was pretentious, and Noble Lady Cao was smiling but had a dagger in her heart.

After the first concubines' meeting ended unsatisfactorily, Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang were preparing to return to the palace with their rewards. As soon as they walked out of Jingren Gate, An Lingrong walked up to them and invited them to join her with a smile. Naturally, the two were happy.

As they were talking, Xia Dongchun's barbell-like laughter drifted over. "You two sisters are so eloquent. After flattering the Queen, you're now fawning over Concubine Hua. You're playing both sides like a stage. It's really admirable. You two sisters are asking the servants to take so many rewards. Can this palace accommodate them?"

Shen Meizhuang ignored her sarcasm and said, "The grace of the Heavenly Family should be shared by all the sisters. I was just about to go back to the palace and have someone pick out some good ones to send to the sisters' palaces, but I didn't expect Sister Xia to arrive first. So, pick out some of the ones you like and keep them for your enjoyment."

An Lingrong couldn't help but sigh that Shen Meizhuang was a typical lady from a noble family. In the face of other people's sarcasm and provocation, she could still respond calmly, with appropriate language, and an attitude that was neither humble nor arrogant, and she seemed approachable to give people a way out.

But Xia Dongchun didn't appreciate it and continued to pursue her: "These things are not lacking in my Xia family, but Concubine Shen's small favors seem to be really good at winning people's hearts!"

In the distance, Concubine Hua was already walking slowly towards Songzhi, holding her hand.

According to the original plot, An Lingrong should have spoken at this point, but she chose to remain silent. Although she hated Xia Dongchun, she was just a spoiled little girl of sixteen or seventeen, arrogant and outspoken, but her crime was not punishable by death. An Lingrong would not push her into the trap according to the plot.

But everyone present knew that Xia Dongchun's last words were a reference to An Lingrong. If An Lingrong hadn't responded, Shen Meizhuang would have been embarrassed in public. An Lingrong had no choice but to say tactfully, "Sister Xia, choose your words carefully, avoid harsh words, and speak at the right time. Only then will you not annoy others."

An Lingrong thought Xia Dongchun was uneducated and didn't understand what she meant, so the matter probably ended there. However, in this era, "Nujie" was a must-read for women. After a moment of confusion, Xia Dongchun realized that An Lingrong was saying that she didn't follow women's advice.

Seeing the people around him covering their mouths and laughing, Xia Dongchun became furious and raised his hand to slap them.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he raised his hand, Zhou Ninghai grabbed him from behind.

Concubine Hua was already walking towards her gracefully.

"The maple leaves in the Imperial Garden don't seem red enough this year!"

"Then I'll give Xia Chang a reward of one zhang red!"

A simple sentence determines a person's fate.
