An Lingrong's Rebirth: I will not offend others unless they offend me

There was quite a commotion in Yonghe Palace, and the Queen got the news without anyone having to report it specifically.

She said with a smile.

"An Changzai is a good master who cares for the palace people."

Zhou Ninghai lingered outside the door for a long time before reporting with a bitter face.

"Your Majesty, I am incompetent and have messed up what you asked me to do. Please punish me!"

The teacup on the round table broke into several pieces, and Hua Fei threw two vases before she felt better.

"Zhou Ninghai, give this to me..."

Songzhi found the right opportunity to interrupt.

"My Lady, I feel that there is something strange about this matter."

"You said."

"Your Majesty, you are under the Emperor's order to assist in the management of the six palaces, and you are very busy all day long. Logically speaking, a palace maid in Yonghe Palace with a fever would not..."

Before Songzhi could finish her words, Concubine Hua's eyes turned red.

"That old woman, the queen!"

"Zhou Ninghai, thoroughly screen the Yikun Palace for me. Send anyone who is suspicious to the Ministry of Punishment."

Zhou Ninghai quickly accepted the order, and in order to atone for his sins, he actually asked him to find out some abnormalities.

Hua Fei, who had no place to vent her anger, took her people to Yanqing Palace again, and came out feeling refreshed.

Bao Ge learned this from a friend, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs also sent two larger osmanthus trees to Suiyuxuan.

Over there, Huanbi watched people plant the trees, and then she couldn't wait to go to Zhen Huan to please her.

"Miss, these two osmanthus trees are more flourishing than before."

There was a proud tone in his words.

Zhen Huan didn't say anything, staring at the osmanthus tree in the yard in a trance.

Concubine Hua sent people to pull out her osmanthus tree. The only one who dared to ask the Imperial Household Department to send flowers at this time was the Queen.

The other two masters in the palace, the emperor was busy with government affairs, and the empress dowager was devoted to worshiping Buddha.

This was a contest between the Queen and Concubine Hua, and she ended up being the victim.

"My lady, I have learned that something big has happened in the harem. Zhou Ninghai from Yikun Palace has led his men to Yonghe Palace to capture An Changzai's personal maid..."

Liu Zhu vividly described everything that happened in Yonghe Palace, as if she were there in person.

Huanbi was hiding behind and laughing, but when she heard that An Lingrong had saved Baoque, her smile gradually disappeared.

In her heart, she secretly hated Zhou Ninghai's incompetence for not being able to break An Lingrong's arm.

Later, he joined Liu Zhu in suppressing the tyranny of Concubine Hua.

Late Night, Suiyuxuan

A faint sound was heard.

"Liu Zhu, are you ready?"

"Miss, I have prepared everything. It's cold outside, so please wait in the room. Huanbi and I will be able to handle it."

Then, there was a slight noise in the yard.

Zhen Huan looked at the two cloth bags in front of her, her face pale.

"Huanbi, restore the yard to normal and don't let anyone see any clues."

She calmly instructed Liu Zhu again.

"Put the things away and have Doctor Wen come over tomorrow to check Ping An's pulse."

Huanbi, who was still under house arrest, unwillingly took a small shovel and went out to fill the soil viciously.

Liu Zhu knew the seriousness of the matter, and as soon as Wen Shichu appeared in the Imperial Hospital, he took him to Suiyuxuan.

Wen Shichu had long been deeply in love with Zhen Huan, and as soon as she finished greeting him, he asked her with concern.

"May I ask what's wrong with you, young master?"

Zhen Huan winked at Liu Zhu and waited until Liu Zhu was guarding the door.

She spoke in panic.

"Brother Shichu, Liuzhu and the others found some suspicious items in the house. Could you please help take a look?"

Wen Shichu naturally agreed. He took the small cloth bag handed to him by Huanbi, picked up a pinch of powder and put it to his nose to sniff it.

After a while, his expression suddenly changed.

Zhen Huan had been paying attention to him and asked quickly.

"Brother Shichu, what kind of harmful thing is this?"

"My Lord, this powder contains a large amount of musk. Exposing it to it for a long time can cause miscarriage or even infertility."

Wen Shichu looked at the girl in front of him with heartache. The harem was full of swords and sabers, and he must protect her.

"My lady, may I ask if I may report this to the Queen?"

"Brother Shichu, the Queen has had a headache. We should not disturb her with such a small matter."

Who wants to harm her?

The only ones who could reach out to the Imperial Household Department were high-ranking concubines who had been working in the palace for many years. Could it be Concubine Hua who disliked her?

It is even possible that she is the queen who is in charge of the six palaces.

The more Zhen Huan thought about it, the more uneasy she became. She grabbed Wen Shichu's sleeve and pleaded in panic.

"Brother Shichu, Huan'er has something to ask of you."

"My lord, please tell me. I will definitely help you in any way I can."

Not long after Wen Shichu left Suiyuxuan, the Jingshifang received the news. Suiyuxuan's chief attendant Wan Zai was ill and had removed the green card.

When Shen Meizhuang heard that Zhen Huan was ill, she rushed to Suiyuxuan in a hurry. Before she even entered the door, she heard anxious voices.

"Huan'er, why are you sick?"

The new bride has just entered the palace, and if she falls ill, she will be unable to serve the emperor in bed.

Zhen Huan tried hard to get up, but Shen Meizhuang quickly pushed her back.

"You're not feeling well, so don't get up. We're sisters, so there's no need to worry about these etiquettes."

"Thank you, Sister Mei, for your understanding. Huan'er was so engrossed in ancient books that she forgot to put on her clothes."

She explained weakly.

Liuzhu and Huanbi also blamed themselves for not taking good care of the young lady and apologized.

"Huan'er, since you're sick, those flattering servants in the Imperial Household Department will definitely cut your daily expenses. I brought you some things. Ask Liuzhu and the others to keep them."

Seeing that Zhen Huan looked tired, Shen Meizhuang told her to rest and recuperate, then left with her people.

She was so worried that she never thought that Zhen Huan was pretending to be sick. She also ordered Caixing and Caiyue to keep an eye on Suiyuxuan and send anything missing there in time.

At this time, Zhen Huan in the Suiyuxuan changed her previous sick state and whispered orders.

"Liu Zhu, please dispose of those two packages of bad stuff in private."

Huanbi knew her chance had come and quickly interrupted.

"Miss, leave this matter to me."

"And Doctor Wen has repeatedly warned us that the soil beneath the osmanthus tree is soaked with dirt and that it's best to dispose of it all at once. I've been in the palace for quite a while now, and I'm very familiar with the area."

Zhen Huan, who was originally hesitant, nodded in agreement when she heard her say that.

"You know where the money is kept; take it yourself."

"My slave understands."

The next day, the osmanthus tree in Suiyuxuan appeared in Yonghe Palace with the tree and soil.

"Mrs. An, our young master heard that you like to eat osmanthus cake, so she specially ordered this servant to bring you the two new trees that Sui Yuxuan had acquired."

"Okay, Sister Wan is thoughtful."

An Lingrong said this with gratitude and gave her a purse as a reward.

Huanbi was a very enthusiastic person. She watched the young eunuchs plant the two trees before leaving with satisfaction.

An Lingrong walked around the osmanthus tree for a long time and asked Baoge to make osmanthus cake.

The freshly baked osmanthus cake is sweet but not greasy, fragrant and delicious.

She ordered someone to send a portion to Shen Meiyu, and she personally brought the osmanthus cake to Suiyuxuan to express her gratitude.

"Sister Wan, I only found out you were ill in bed after hearing what Huanbi said. That's why I came to see you a little late. Please don't blame me, Sister Wan."

An Lingrong confessed her crime as soon as they met.

Zhen Huan was shocked as to why Huanbi had gone to Yonghe Palace, but she answered without showing any emotion.

"My sister fell ill so suddenly that I didn't tell anyone because I was afraid you might get sick."

An Lingrong took out the sweet-scented osmanthus cake from the box and said, "Sister, even when you are sick, you still think of me. It really makes me feel..."

Zhen Huan was even more confused, but she was smart enough not to say anything. She just looked at her with a smile and spoke.

"Sister, you're too polite. We're sisters, and this is as it should be."

An Lingrong didn't say much, left the osmanthus cake and left.
