Chapter 37 An Lingrong (36)
The next morning, sunlight streamed into Jingyang Palace through the window lattices. An Lingrong had just woken up and was still a little tired.
Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came from afar. Su Peisheng led a group of eunuchs into the courtyard, they lined up in an orderly manner, their expressions solemn.
"The imperial edict has arrived!" Su Peisheng announced loudly, with joy in his voice.
An Lingrong was startled when she heard this and hurriedly tried to get up. Su Peisheng quickly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please do not move. The Emperor has ordered you to stay in bed and listen to his orders."
An Lingrong nodded, leaned against the headboard, and folded her hands on her abdomen.
Su Peisheng slowly walked to the bedside, holding the imperial edict woven with gold thread in his hands. He bowed slightly, looked at An Lingrong respectfully, and said softly, "Your Majesty, please listen to the imperial edict."
Su Peisheng solemnly unfolded the imperial edict and read aloud: "Conferring the title of Consort: By the will of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: The present Madam An is virtuous and prudent, diligent and docile, gentle and pure, kind-hearted, well-behaved, and a virtuous woman. She is hereby conferred the title of Consort and granted the title of Shu. The conferment ceremony will be held after the Sixth Prince is one month old. This is my decree!"
After reading it, Su Peisheng respectfully handed the imperial edict to An Lingrong. An Lingrong took it, a trace of joy and emotion flashing in her eyes. She said softly: "Your Majesty, I bow to thank you for your grace."
The palace maids all congratulated: "Congratulations to the Empress Shufei! Congratulations to the Empress Shufei!"
Shen Meizhuang walked slowly into An Lingrong's bedroom, holding an exquisite brocade box in her arms.
A hint of envy flashed in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it.
"Congratulations to Sister An on the birth of her precious son, and on receiving the Emperor's favor and promotion to Consort Shu."
An Lingrong smiled and gently stroked the sleeping baby in the cradle.
"Thank you, Sister Meizhuang, for coming to congratulate me. Please take a seat."
Shen Meizhuang placed the brocade box on the table and asked softly:
"Is the little brother okay?"
An Lingrong's eyes were full of love:
"TOEFL TOEFL, the little guy is very healthy."
Shen Meizhuang stared at the baby's pink face and couldn't help but think of her own experience.
She suppressed her tears and forced a smile:
"Sister An is so lucky to have given birth to such a handsome prince."
An Lingrong noticed Shen Meizhuang's emotional fluctuations and comforted her softly:
"Don't be sad, Sister Meizhuang. I believe you will get what you want soon."
Shen Meizhuang nodded reluctantly, but her eyes involuntarily fell on the baby.
"Sister An, I brought some supplements. I hope you get well soon."
An Lingrong shook Shen Meizhuang's hand gratefully:
"Sister, you are so thoughtful. I will definitely cherish it."
Finally, the long-awaited full moon banquet arrived
An Lingrong couldn't hide her joy
She slowly walked into the bathroom and took off her clothes in the hot steam.
The warm water flows slowly over the skin, washing away the fatigue after giving birth for more than a month.
She closed her eyes and enjoyed this rare moment of peace
Suddenly, I heard light footsteps outside the door.
"My lady, I have prepared new clothes for you."
An Lingrong sighed softly and opened her eyes.
"Okay, I'll be right there"
She got up and put on her bathrobe, water droplets dripping from her hair
The mirror reflects her slightly haggard but still bright face
The maid dressed her up and decorated her carefully.
A light pink long dress sets off her skin like cream
The hair is tied up high, embellished with pearls and jade, making it sparkle.
"Your Majesty will be the most beautiful and dazzling one today"
An Lingrong raised her lips slightly, but a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.
She gently stroked the sleeping baby in the cradle and whispered:
"Baby, today is your full moon party."
"But be good."
The full moon banquet arrived as scheduled, and the luxurious palace was bustling with people.
An Lingrong walked in slowly, her pale pink dress setting off her skin like jade, her hair tied high in a bun, sparkling with pearls and jade. She smiled, her eyes tenderly gazing at the little prince in her arms.
All the concubines stood up and saluted, but complicated expressions flashed in their eyes.
Some people secretly marveled at how quickly An Lingrong recovered after giving birth, and her appearance was even three times better than before; others felt jealous and gritted their teeth.
Concubine Hua suppressed her displeasure, forced a smile, and stepped forward to congratulate: "Congratulations, Sister An. The young prince is truly adorable."
An Lingrong nodded slightly: "Thank you, Sister Hua Fei."
Shen Meizhuang stood aside, her eyes involuntarily falling on the little prince.
She suppressed her sorrow and said softly, "Sister An is so lucky, the little prince is so handsome.
At this moment, a commotion was heard. Everyone turned around and saw the emperor walking into the hall with a look of joy on his face. An Lingrong hurried forward and saluted: "Your Majesty, your concubine greets you."
The Emperor helped An Lingrong up, his eyes gentle, "My beloved concubine, there's no need to be so polite." He gently stroked the little prince's cheek and said with a smile, "How is my little prince?"
An Lingrong said happily, "Thanks to the Emperor's great blessing, the young prince is in good health."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction and turned to the concubines: "Today is the Sixth Prince's full moon, and all my beloved concubines should also join in the joy."
Everyone responded in unison, but each had their own thoughts.
During the banquet, the atmosphere was filled with laughter and clinking of glasses. An Lingrong would occasionally whisper to the Emperor, drawing attention from the crowd. Seeing this, Concubine Hua couldn't help but knock over her wine glass.
"Empress Hua, are you okay?" The palace maid beside her hurried forward to wipe it.
Hua Fei suppressed her anger and forced a smile: "It's okay, it was just an accident."
The Emperor looked over at her, and Concubine Hua quickly stood up and explained, "I am sorry for my impoliteness, Your Majesty, please forgive me."
The emperor waved his hand and said, "It's alright, Concubine Hua, drink some more tea to wake up."
Concubine Hua was even more unhappy, but she could only force a smile.
The Queen sat on her high seat, her eyes sweeping across the crowd in the palace. When she saw An Lingrong holding the Sixth Prince in her arms, a hint of gloom flashed in her eyes.
"This An Lingrong is so lucky." The Queen gritted her teeth secretly, "She was able to give birth to a prince and be so favored by the Emperor."
She suppressed her anger, but remained expressionless. An Lingrong was seen whispering to the Emperor, their laughter resembling silver bells echoing from time to time. The Emperor was even more doting and teasing the little prince, his face full of affection.
This scene stung the queen's eyes.
"Empress, you look a little unwell. Do you want to call the imperial physician?" the nanny beside her asked with concern.
The queen came back to her senses and forced a smile: "Nothing wrong, just a little tired."
She plotted secretly, her gaze fixed coldly on An Lingrong and her son. "One day sooner or later, I'm going to teach you and your son a lesson."
At this moment, the little prince suddenly burst into tears. An Lingrong tried to comfort him, but to no avail. The emperor was also somewhat bewildered, and the situation became awkward.
Seeing this, the Queen slowly stood up and walked gracefully towards An Lingrong: "Let me hold the little prince."
An Lingrong was a little hesitant, but at the emperor's signal, she handed the child to the queen.
The queen took the child and rocked him gently. Unexpectedly, the little prince gradually calmed down and even giggled at the queen.
"It seems that the young prince likes the queen very much." The emperor smiled, "My beloved concubine should learn more about the mothering skills from the queen."
An Lingrong's smile was a little forced, and she quickly responded.
The Queen returned the child to An Lingrong and turned around with a sneer on her face. "An Lingrong, do you think you can rest easy just because you have this child? You are so naive..."
She returned to her seat, took a sip from her wine glass, a dangerous glint in her eyes. "I want to see how long you and your son can hold on to your pride."
