I fulfilled the female supporting role's wish and I succeeded

Jingyang Palace

"Your Majesty, I heard that General Nian has done something inappropriate again." Qiuyue reported respectfully.

"Oh? What do you mean?" An Lingrong asked curiously.

Qiuyue sneered: "What else could it be? Isn't it just relying on military achievements to show off in the court and suppress the civil officials?"

"This is too much." Chunhua exclaimed in a low voice.

"Excessive? You haven't heard the worst yet!" Qiuyue narrowed her eyes. "I heard that his palace in the capital is as luxurious as the imperial palace!"

The palace maids around gasped and showed incredible expressions.

"That's not all," Qiuyue continued, "his wife suddenly became seriously ill today. Guess what he did?"

The palace maids held their breath, waiting for what would happen next.

"He actually sent people to forcibly take away all the imperial doctors in the palace just to treat his beloved wife!" Qiuyue said indignantly.

"This...this is too domineering!" Chunhua couldn't help but say.

Just then, the eunuch Xiao Luzi rushed in in a panic, "Your Majesty, this is bad! The Empress had a headache late at night, but there's not a single imperial physician in the palace!"

An Lingrong's expression changed: "What?! Does the Emperor know?"

"The emperor already knows about it. I heard he is very angry!" the eunuch answered tremblingly.

An Lingrong rubbed her chin thoughtfully: "Why is it so coincidental that the Queen's headache strikes at this time? Could it be..."

She didn't finish her words, but glanced meaningfully at the people around her.

The palace maids looked at each other, not daring to respond.

An Lingrong sighed softly, "The Emperor is kind and lenient, I'm sure he will punish me leniently."

"Why do you say that, Your Majesty?" Qiuyue asked curiously.

An Lingrong said meaningfully: "If you want to destroy him, you must drive him crazy. Your Majesty is giving Nian Gengyao a rope!"

The next day, "I heard that the emperor met with the ministers who wrote letters to impeach Nian Gengyao this morning." Qiuyue said mysteriously.

"Then what? What did the emperor say?" Chunhua asked impatiently.

Qiuyue curled her lips: "What else can I say? It's still just blind indulgence!"

"What?!" Chunhua exclaimed, her face full of disbelief.

"Not only that," Qiuyue lowered her voice, "the emperor even personally comforted Nian Gengyao, saying things like 'My dear minister, don't worry.'"

"This...this is too much!" Chunhua stomped her feet in anger.

An Lingrong shook her head slightly: "It seems that the emperor is determined to protect Nian Gengyao."

"Your Majesty, do you think Nian Gengyao will become even more aggressive?" Qiuyue asked worriedly.

An Lingrong sneered, "Of course. How can such a person be content?"

"I heard that Nian Gengyao has begun to intensify his suppression of Zhen Yuandao." Qiuyue suddenly interrupted.

"Nian Gengyao is truly lawless!" Chunhua said indignantly.

"Empress! Empress!" Xiao Luzi rushed in breathlessly, his face full of excitement.

"What's wrong? You look so flustered." An Lingrong asked with a raised eyebrow.

Xiao Luzi took a deep breath and said, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs has sent someone here, saying they've brought your imperial concubine's wedding attire!"

"Oh?" An Lingrong's eyes lit up and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Let them in!" Chunhua shouted impatiently.

Several eunuchs from the Imperial Household Department walked in cautiously carrying a large box.

"Your Majesty, this is your auspicious dress." The leading eunuch said respectfully.

An Lingrong nodded: "Let it go."

The eunuchs gently placed the box on the ground and stepped aside.

"Chunhua, Qiuyue, go check it out." An Lingrong said calmly.

"Yes, your majesty." Two palace maids stepped forward in response.

Chunhua opened the box carefully, and a gorgeous auspicious dress came into view.

"Wow! So beautiful!" The palace maids around couldn't help but exclaim.

Qiuyue frowned and said, "My Lady, do you want to try?"

An Lingrong sneered, "Wait a moment, I'm afraid the Queen has tampered with the auspicious dress."

"Check carefully and don't miss any details." An Lingrong said seriously.

Chunhua and Qiuyue nodded and began to check carefully.

"Your Majesty, we have finished the inspection and found no problems." Chunhua said cautiously.

An Lingrong frowned slightly, a hint of distrust flashing in her eyes: "Really? Are you sure you didn't miss anything?"

"Yes, your majesty," Qiuyue replied respectfully, "We carefully checked every stitch and decoration."

An Lingrong stood up and slowly walked to the box: "Let me see it myself."

The surrounding palace maids held their breath, nervously watching An Lingrong inspect the auspicious attire. An Lingrong secretly called the system in her heart.

"System, help me scan this auspicious dress." She said silently in her heart.

The system's voice then rang out: "Scan completed, no abnormalities found."

An Lingrong opened her eyes and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

An Lingrong thought to herself, "Am I worrying too much? The Queen's behavior this time is so abnormal, it really makes me suspicious."

"Your Majesty, what are you thinking about?" Chunhua asked cautiously.

An Lingrong came back to her senses, smiled and shook her head: "Nothing, just thinking about something."

"Then...is there any problem with the auspicious dress?" Qiuyue asked tentatively.

An Lingrong turned gracefully, smiling, "It's indeed no problem. Please prepare to change my clothes."

"Empress, what are you talking about?" Chunhua asked cautiously.

An Lingrong raised her head sharply, "Don't you find it strange?"

Chunhua and Qiuyue looked at each other, not daring to say anything.

"That cruel queen actually missed such a good opportunity?" An Lingrong sneered.

Qiuyue bravely asked, "Your Majesty, do you mean... that the Queen should tamper with her wedding attire?"

"That's right!" An Lingrong stood up suddenly and began to pace back and forth.

Chunhua exclaimed, "Could it be that the Empress has turned over a new leaf?"

An Lingrong sneered: "You are too naive!"

She suddenly stopped, a flash of understanding in her eyes: "Unless..."

"Unless what?" they asked in unison, their eyes full of curiosity.

An Lingrong pondered for a moment. "Unless... the Queen has other plans? No, that's not right. Could it be... that she has realized that even if something happens to the auspicious robes, it won't stop my promotion?"

"Your Majesty, you mean..." Qiuyue hesitated to speak.

An Lingrong smiled slightly: "I can receive this honor, in addition to the emperor's favor, but also my own merits."

She slowly walked to the window and looked at the palace in the distance: "The prescription I presented has saved many people."

"Empress, what do you mean..." Chunhua widened her eyes and her voice trembled.

An Lingrong smiled coldly: "If I make any mistakes during the promotion ceremony, it will be a slap in the face of the emperor."

"Oh my God!" Qiuyue gasped and covered her mouth with her hands.

"Think about it," An Lingrong narrowed her eyes, "how would the people view such an emperor?"

The palace maids around looked at each other in horror.

"An emperor who can't even protect his own concubine..." An Lingrong said meaningfully.

"Then...that means..." Chunhua stuttered and couldn't speak.

"That's why," An Lingrong gently stroked the auspicious dress, "the Queen doesn't dare to act rashly."

"I'm actually looking forward to tomorrow." An Lingrong chuckled. "I'm sure the Queen will be very happy too."
