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

Chapter 5: The Alliance Between Zhen Huan and An Lingrong is Consolidated

"Sister, let's go visit Chun'er first!" An Lingrong said to Zhen Huan.

"Okay! I miss the little girl Chun'er very much too!" Zhen Huan responded with a smile.

The two came to Chun'er's residence. As soon as Chun'er saw them, she ran over happily.

"Sister Zhen Huan, Sister Lingrong, you are here! I am so happy!" Chun'er's eyes sparkled.

"Chun'er, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you are still so cute!" Zhen Huan held Chun'er's hand.

"Hehe, sisters, why did you come to see me? Is there something fun?" Chun'er asked curiously.

"Chun'er, we want to tell you that the palace is complicated and we have to support each other." An Lingrong said seriously.

"I know! Those bad sisters always have a lot of tricks up their sleeves, that's why I don't like them. I just like being with Sister Zhen Huan and Sister Ling Rong!" Chun'er said with a pout.

"Chun'er is so smart! If someone bullies you in the future, come and tell us." Zhen Huan said.

"Well! If anyone bullies my sisters, I won't let her go!" Chun'er waved her little fists.

After leaving Chun'er, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong went to Jingpin's palace.

"Empress Jingpin, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong pay their respects to you." The two of them saluted.

"Hurry up and get up. How come you two sisters have time to come and see me today?" Jingpin asked with a smile.

"Empress Jingpin, we have no one to rely on in the palace. We only feel that you are steady and reliable, so we come here to get close to you." Zhen Huan said.

"Haha, Concubine Wan is too polite. I have been in this palace for many years and have seen too many right and wrongs. I saw how you two performed at the Imperial Garden Banquet. But in the palace, a big tree attracts wind, so you have to be careful." Concubine Jing reminded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for reminding us. We are also worried about this matter." An Lingrong said.

"Hmph! You must all be careful of Concubine Hua's arrogant temper and the Queen's seemingly kind but actually scheming mind. Don't fall into their trap by accident." Jingpin said with a frown.

"We will, Your Majesty. We don't want to get involved in those disputes. We just want to live a peaceful life in the palace." Zhen Huan said.

"Safety? There is no real safety in the palace. But it is rare that you have such a wish. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me." Jingpin said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" they said in unison.

On the way back, An Lingrong said to Zhen Huan, "Sister, with Concubine Jing's words, we have an extra layer of security."

"Yes, Lingrong. But we can't rely entirely on others. We still have to be careful." Zhen Huan nodded.

But after a few days, trouble came. Zhen Huan was reading in Sui Yuxuan when Liu Zhu rushed in.

"Miss, this is bad! People are saying that you deliberately stole the limelight at the Imperial Garden Banquet, causing dissatisfaction among the other ladies!" Liu Zhu said anxiously.

"What? Who is spreading rumors?" Zhen Huan stood up angrily.

"I don't know either. Now this rumor is almost spreading throughout the entire harem." Liu Zhu said.

"Someone must have done this on purpose, wanting to make me the target of public criticism." Zhen Huan frowned.

"Sister, don't panic. We have to find out who is behind this first." An Lingrong said after arriving.

"Lingrong, I guess it was Yu Da Ying. She has been holding a grudge against me since last time." Zhen Huan said.

"It's very likely. We have to find a way to deal with it. We can't let this rumor continue to spread." An Lingrong said.

As they were talking, Chun'er also came.

"Sister Zhen Huan, Sister Lingrong, I heard those bad sisters were saying bad things about you, I'm so angry!" Chun'er's face was full of anger.

"Chun'er, don't be angry. We will take care of it." Zhen Huan comforted.

"We can't just let it go like this. We have to let them know that we are not easy to bully!" Chun'er said.

"Chun'er, we can't be impulsive. Now we have to find evidence to prove that this is a rumor." An Lingrong said.

"Then how do we find evidence?" Chun'er asked.

"We can ask the palace maids and eunuchs to find out where this rumor started," Zhen Huan said.

So, the three of them started to act. They each went to ask the palace maids and eunuchs they were familiar with.

"My lady, I heard that this rumor seemed to have been spread by Yu's maid." A young eunuch said to Zhen Huan.

"It's indeed her!" A hint of anger flashed in Zhen Huan's eyes.

"Sister, should we go confront her now?" An Lingrong asked.

"No, we don't have sufficient evidence, so we can't act rashly. We have to find a way to make her reveal her true identity." Zhen Huan said.

"I have an idea!" Chun'er suddenly said, "We can have a palace maid casually mention this rumor to Yu Da Ying and see her reaction."

"Chun'er, your idea is great! Let's do it." An Lingrong praised.

They found a clever palace maid and acted according to the plan. The palace maid came to Yu Da Ying.

"I agree, have you heard? Now everyone in the harem is saying that Concubine Zhen Huan deliberately tried to attract attention at the Imperial Garden Banquet." said the palace maid.

"Hmph! She deserves it! Who made her so flamboyant?" Yu agreed and said proudly.

"But I heard that someone seemed to be deliberately spreading rumors." The palace maid continued.

"Spread rumors? Humph! So what if it's a rumor? As long as I can make her life miserable, that's fine." Yu Agree blurted out.

The palace maid told Zhen Huan and others what Yu had promised.

"Humph! She actually admitted it! We can't just let her go like this." Zhen Huan said angrily.

"Sister, let's go to the Queen now and tell her about this matter so that she can seek justice." An Lingrong said.

"Okay! Let's go." Zhen Huan said.

The three of them came to the Queen's palace.

"Your Majesty, we have something to report." Zhen Huan said after bowing.

"What's the matter? Tell me." said the queen.

"Your Majesty, there have been rumors in the harem recently that I deliberately tried to stand out at the Imperial Garden Banquet. We found out that it was Yu who spread the rumors behind the scenes in an attempt to destroy the harmony in the harem." Zhen Huan said.

"Is this true? Yu Da Ying, why did you do this?" The queen looked at Yu Da Ying.

"Empress, I didn't do that. They are the ones who slandered me!" Yu agreed and argued cunningly.

"Hmph! You still don't admit it? Your palace maids have already admitted that it was you who ordered it." An Lingrong said.

"You...you framed me!" Yu Da Ying said in panic.

"I promise that you have disturbed the order of the harem, and I cannot let you off easily. I will punish you by grounding you to your room for a month and let you reflect on your behavior." The queen said seriously.

"Empress, I am innocent!" Yu Da Ying cried.

"Drag him away!" ordered the Queen.

"Thank you, Her Majesty, for upholding justice!" Zhen Huan and others said.

"Don't be too happy too soon. The disputes in the harem will not stop here. You must be vigilant at all times." said the queen.

"Yes, ma'am."

After this incident, the relationship between Zhen Huan, An Lingrong and Chun'er became closer.

"Sisters, we are really awesome this time! We defeated the bad guys." Chun'er said happily.

"Chun'er, it's all thanks to you this time." Zhen Huan said with a smile.

"We must be more united in the future and not let those bad guys succeed." An Lingrong said.

However, when Concubine Hua learned about this in her palace, she was very angry.

"Hmph! This Yu Da Ying is really useless! Not only did she fail to deal with Zhen Huan and An Lingrong, but she also got herself involved. Songzhi, go and think of a way for me. I want to let Zhen Huan and An Lingrong know the consequences of offending me!" Hua Fei shouted angrily.

"Yes, your majesty." Songzhi said.

On the other side, the queen was also thinking.

"Zhen Huan and An Lingrong are becoming more and more complicated. We can't let them develop too smoothly. We have to find an opportunity to suppress them." A cold light flashed in the queen's eyes.

In this complicated harem, although Zhen Huan, An Lingrong and others have temporarily solved one problem, more crises are quietly approaching.

"Lingrong, we can't let our guard down. Concubine Hua and the Queen are not easy to deal with." Zhen Huan said to An Lingrong.

"Sister, I know. We must be prepared to respond at any time." An Lingrong nodded.

"Also, we should interact more with other ladies to learn more about the news," Zhen Huan said.

"Well, we can find an opportunity to talk more with Concubine Xin, Concubine Jing and others." An Lingrong said.

"Okay, let's do it." Zhen Huan said.

So, they started a new action, trying to find a way to survive in this undercurrent harem, and each of their steps was full of unknowns and challenges.

"Sister, I heard that the palace is going to hold a flower viewing party. We can go and participate. Maybe we can get some new gains." An Lingrong said.

"A flower viewing party? This is a good opportunity. We can make more friends there, and also see if anyone has any bad intentions towards us." Zhen Huan nodded.

"Then we have to prepare well." An Lingrong said.

"Yes, there can't be any mistakes this time." Zhen Huan said.

In the process of preparing for the flower viewing party, what new people and things will Zhen Huan and An Lingrong encounter? How will they deal with them?
