The Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Ling Rong

The Empress Dowager was already weak, and the incident involving Longkodo made her so sad that she fell ill not long after returning to the palace.

The emperor was very upset about this matter, so he did not pay his respects to the empress dowager for a long time.

Only Concubine Hui served by the empress dowager's bedside, serving her tea and water, and taking care of her meticulously. The empress dowager was very moved by Concubine Hui's filial piety and trusted her even more.

"My lady, Huanbi just came to tell me that Concubine Wan has something to tell you, and asked you to go over there." Juqing came in and told me.

I wonder why my sister is looking for me at this time?

I got up and went to my sister.

"Lingrong, come and take a look at this!"

She took the box from Huanbi's hand and placed it on the table.

I slowly walked over and sat down, carefully opened the box, took out something from it and opened it, and it turned out to be a land deed and a house deed!

"What is this? Sister..." My hands were shaking slightly, and I was so excited that I could hardly speak.

"That's right, I have already taken care of the house matter for you. The land deeds and house deeds are all in place. Now you can rest assured." My sister looked at me gently.

She continued, "I've already had my mother send someone to clean up the place. When your mother arrives, you can move in directly. If there's anything else you need, just let me know and I'll arrange for someone to get it all done."

I held the land deeds and house deeds tightly in my hands, my heart filled with gratitude.

"Sister, thank you. I don't know what to do without you." I looked at her with tears in my eyes.

She patted my shoulder gently and said with a smile, "Silly sister, we are family, no need to be so polite. Besides, don't you help me enough on a daily basis? If you weren't by my side, I don't know where I would be today. These are all trivial matters, don't worry about them."

I nodded, feeling warm inside.

"But sister, I have one more thing to trouble you with." I said a little embarrassedly, secretly thinking about how to start the conversation.

"Just say it. You and I are sisters. There's no need to be so polite. Asking whether it's a trouble or not will make things awkward." My sister looked at me with a smile, her eyes full of concern.

"Since you say so, I'll be frank. I've received a letter from home saying that my mother and brother left for Beijing two days ago and will arrive soon. So I'll have to trouble you to send someone to pick up my mother."

I expressed my request carefully, fearing to cause her too much trouble.

"It's a small matter. Even if you don't tell me, I will arrange it. Don't worry." My sister smiled gently, as if she could see through my thoughts, which made me feel extremely warm.

She patted my hand gently and continued, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. When they get here, I'll make sure everything is arranged."

I nodded gratefully, my heart filled with admiration and gratitude for her. She always knew what I was thinking and what I was worried about.

"Thank you, sister." I said softly.

"Silly sister, why are you being so polite to me?" My sister smiled and shook her head, then began to plan with me about welcoming mother and brother.

I listened quietly to my sister's arrangements, and the worries in my heart gradually dissipated. With my sister by my side, I felt extremely safe.

As time passed, my mother arrived safely in the capital and moved into her new house. I was very happy and in a much better mood.

I just can't see my mother again, and I always feel a little regretful. From the time I entered the palace until my death, I never saw my mother again.

Today is the ninth day of the second lunar month. It is an ordinary day, but it is a special day for me.

Early in the morning, Su Peisheng brought a group of eunuchs to the palace.

They held various precious gifts in their hands, including gold and silver jewelry, gorgeous satin and exquisite cakes.

Su Peisheng bowed respectfully to me and said, "Madam An, today is your birthday. The Emperor ordered me to bring you these gifts early this morning. Please accept them, Madam."

When I heard the news, a look of surprise appeared on my face. The emperor actually remembered my birthday?

In my previous life, I was nothing more than a captive bird in the eyes of the Emperor, kept only to please him. I never thought he would remember all this now?

I said gratefully, "Thank you for the emperor's gift, and thank you, Eunuch Su, for personally delivering it."

Su Peisheng smiled and replied, "This is all the Emperor's love for Your Majesty. I am just following orders. I hope Your Majesty likes these gifts."

Afterwards, Su Peisheng instructed the eunuchs behind him to hand the gifts to Baojuan and Juqing beside me one by one, and then said to me with a smile: "Happy birthday, Your Majesty. The Emperor said that he will come to visit you after he finishes his official duties."

"Thank you so much, Eunuch Su. Please thank the emperor on my behalf." I smiled and nodded to express my gratitude.

"Your Majesty, you are too polite. This is what I should do. I will go back first!" Su Peisheng replied politely.

"Goodbye, grandpa!" I bowed slightly and watched Su Peisheng leave.

After the emperor finished his morning court session, he came directly to my palace.

He walked hurriedly, as if in a hurry. After entering the palace, he walked straight towards me, his eyes full of concern and expectation.

"Do you like the gift I asked Su Peisheng to send this morning?" the emperor asked softly, with a hint of nervousness in his voice.

I lowered my eyes slightly, a shy blush on my face, and didn't look at the emperor.

She nodded gently, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and replied softly: "Your Majesty's kindness, I naturally like it."

After hearing this, the emperor smiled with satisfaction, his eyes gleaming with tenderness. He reached out and gently stroked my cheek, saying softly, "Rong'er, as long as you like it, I hope to bring you surprise and happiness."

I felt the emperor's care and love, and my heart was filled with emotion.

She raised her head and looked into the emperor's eyes, deep emotion in her eyes.

Smiling, she said, "Your Majesty, I am deeply grateful for your care and love for me. I know that this is not only a material gift, but also the sincerity of your Majesty towards me."

The emperor nodded, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes.

He took my hand, held it tightly, and said affectionately: "You are someone I cherish, and I will always treat you well."

For a moment, I was really moved by the emperor's words, and tears welled up in my eyes.

I lowered my head and leaned gently into the emperor's arms, feeling his warm embrace and strong heartbeat.

But I understand more clearly that he is an emperor, the person in this world who is least likely to be single-minded.

Sincerity is the most unimportant thing.

The emperor is good to me now and will also be good to others. Why should I be different?

I clearly remember my mission and what I should do.
