The Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of An Lingrong: Counterattack to Become the Queen Mother

"Sister, we can't let those people succeed this time!" An Lingrong held Zhen Huan's hand tightly, her eyes full of determination.

"Lingrong, you are right, we have to be careful. Recently I always feel that someone is watching us in the dark." Zhen Huan frowned, looking solemn.

"Sister, I feel the same way. We have to start by checking the people in our own palace to see if there is anything unusual." An Lingrong said.

"Okay, let's go back and ask." Zhen Huan nodded.

Back in Zhen Huan's palace, Zhen Huan called her personal maid.

"Xiao Zhu, have you noticed any suspicious people wandering around our palace recently?" Zhen Huan asked.

"Your Majesty, I haven't found anyone suspicious, but the meals delivered from the imperial kitchen these days seem to taste a little different." Xiao Zhu replied.

"The taste is different? Are you saying someone tampered with the food?" An Lingrong was shocked.

"I'm not sure either, I just feel it's a little strange." Xiao Zhu said.

"We can't be careless about this. We need to find a reliable person to go to the imperial kitchen to inquire." Zhen Huan said.

"Sister, I have an idea. We can let Chun'er go. She often goes to the imperial kitchen to find food and is familiar with the people there, so she won't arouse suspicion." An Lingrong suggested.

"Okay, let's do it. Let's find Chun'er." Zhen Huan nodded.

After Chun'er arrived, he heard about this.

"Sisters, don't worry, I will go to the imperial kitchen to check it out right now! If anyone dares to tamper with the food, I will not forgive him!" Chun'er said angrily.

After a while, Chun'er came back.

"Sisters, I found out! It's a new eunuch who is always sneaky on the way to deliver meals." Chun'er said.

"Who is that little eunuch? We have to find him." Zhen Huan said.

After some searching, they found the little eunuch.

"You! Why did you tamper with the food? Did someone instruct you?" An Lingrong shouted.

"Your Majesty, I... I was forced to do this! It was the people around Concubine Hua who asked me to do this, and I dared not disobey!" The little eunuch said crying.

"It's Concubine Hua again! She's really haunting us." Zhen Huan said angrily.

"Sister, we can't just let this go. We have to find a way to fight back," An Lingrong said.

"Lingrong, what ideas do you have?" Zhen Huan asked.

"We can take advantage of the situation and do something with the food, making Concubine Hua think that her plan has succeeded, and then we can expose her conspiracy." A gleam flashed in An Lingrong's eyes.

"This is a good idea! But we have to be careful not to let our own people get hurt." Zhen Huan nodded.

So they began to prepare, and when the meal was delivered from the imperial kitchen, they acted according to their plan.

When Concubine Hua heard the news, she thought Zhen Huan and An Lingrong had fallen into a trap.

"Hmph! Let's see how proud they are this time!" Hua Fei laughed proudly.

However, when the emperor was about to have dinner, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong appeared in time.

"Your Majesty, there is something wrong with this meal. You can't eat it!" Zhen Huan said.

"What? There's a problem? How did you know?" the emperor asked in surprise.

"Your Majesty, I and others discovered that a young eunuch was acting suspiciously. After investigation, we found that it was someone close to Concubine Hua who instructed him to put something that shouldn't be in the food." An Lingrong replied.

"Hua Fei? How dare she plot to murder me?" The emperor was furious.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent! Someone must have framed me." Concubine Hua hurriedly defended herself.

"Hmph! You still dare to quibble? Lock up Concubine Hua and interrogate her thoroughly!" the emperor ordered.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Zhen Huan and An Lingrong smiled at each other.

After resolving Concubine Hua's crisis, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lingrong, thanks to you this time. If it weren't for your idea, we would have had a hard time dealing with it." Zhen Huan said gratefully.

"Sister, we are sisters, there is no need to say this. We still have to be careful, the conspiracy in the harem will not stop here." An Lingrong said.

"Yes, we can't let our guard down. Also, Lingrong, do you have any new spice recipes recently? We can make some spices to protect the safety of our palace." Zhen Huan asked.

"Sister, I'm researching a new spice that can repel insects and ward off evil spirits. Putting it in the palace will help us sleep more peacefully." An Lingrong replied.

"That's great! Please make it as soon as possible." Zhen Huan said.

After a few days, An Lingrong prepared the spices.

"Sister, smell it, how does this spice feel?" An Lingrong held the spice and let Zhen Huan smell it.

"Well, this fragrance is very special and makes people feel comfortable when they smell it." Zhen Huan praised.

"As long as sister likes it. We can put it in every corner, so it can prevent mosquitoes and bad things." An Lingrong said with a smile.

Just then, Mei Zhuang arrived.

"You are here. I just heard about Concubine Hua. You are really powerful this time!" Mei Zhuang said with a smile.

"Sister Meizhuang, this time it was Lingrong's credit. If it weren't for her, we would be in danger." Zhen Huan said.

"Lingrong, you are getting smarter and smarter. However, we still have to be careful and not take it lightly." Mei Zhuang reminded.

"Sister Mei Zhuang, we know. We will always remain vigilant." An Lingrong nodded.

"By the way, I heard that the Queen Mother hasn't been feeling well recently. Should we go and see her?" Mei Zhuang asked.

"The Queen is sick? We should go and see her." Zhen Huan said.

So the three of them went to visit the queen with gifts.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen." They saluted.

"Get up. It's really thoughtful of you to come and see me." The queen said weakly.

"Empress, how is your health? Have you asked the imperial physician to take a good look?" Zhen Huan asked with concern.

"I have already seen the imperial physician. It's just a minor ailment, nothing serious." said the queen.

"Empress, you must take good care of yourself. The harem still needs you to take charge of the situation." An Lingrong said.

"Yes, I feel much more at ease with you around. Is there anything happening in the harem recently?" asked the queen.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hua attempted to murder the Emperor and has been imprisoned by him," Mei Zhuang replied.

"Hmph! Concubine Hua is so bold and presumptuous. We can't let her off easily this time." The Queen said angrily.

"Empress, we will assist you in handling the affairs of the harem and maintain peace there," Zhen Huan said.

After coming out of the Queen's Palace, Zhen Huan, An Lingrong and Mei Zhuang continued to discuss the situation in the harem.

"Sisters, I think we can use this opportunity to restore order in the harem." An Lingrong suggested.

"Lingrong, you are right. We can start with the management of palace maids and eunuchs and regulate their behavior." Meizhuang nodded.

"Okay, we can discuss with the Queen and formulate some new rules." Zhen Huan said.

In this harem, An Lingrong and Zhen Huan rely on wisdom and courage to resolve crises time and time again. Their sisterhood deepens, and they are also moving step by step towards the throne of the harem master, writing their own legend.
