Whether it is me or Zhen Huan who performs the "Jinghong Dance", it does not prevent Concubine Hua from performing "Loudong Fu".

Through Concubine Hua's expression of love and Prince Dun's plea, the emperor softened his heart.

Although there is no "Crazy Concubine Li" in this life, it was because of "Yu Ying'er's disturbance in Jingren Palace" that Concubine Hua handed over the power of assisting in managing the six palaces to Shen Meiyu. How could Concubine Hua be willing to accept this?

She wanted to take back the power to assist in managing the six palaces.

......

Tonight, the emperor went to Concubine Hua's place just like last time.

I knew that Shen Meizhuang's pregnancy was false and she wouldn't be able to give birth, so I didn't stay up late to sew a bellyband for her this time.

But I also never slept well, because I knew that after the "Jinghong Dance" incident, my father An Bihuai and Jiang Wenqing had an accident while escorting food to the army, and then were imprisoned.

I'm worried and have a headache.

"My lady, let me apply some menthol oil on you. Xiao Tao knows that you are worried about things at home again..."

The one who understands me best is Xiaotao.

"Xiao Tao, can you help me ask the Oleander Elf how to solve this problem?"

"Okay, my dear..."

After saying that, Xiaotao closed her eyes and thought hard.

Then, Xiaotao's expression became a little more relaxed:

"My lady, don't worry too much. This matter doesn't need to be solved. It will be the same as last time. The Emperor will re-investigate the matter and then clear Lord An's name... However, my lady, please know that in your previous life, you had a misunderstanding. You thought it was the Empress who helped you plead your case with the Emperor... But that's not the case. The Empress was simply doing you a favor."

"Oh...that's good."

I felt a little relieved and continued to say to Xiaotao:

"Actually... Xiaotao, do you know? It's not just the Queen who does favors, but also Shen Meizhuang. I remember that time, the incident happened under Shen Zishan's jurisdiction, but when I went to ask Sister Mei for help, Sister Mei didn't care."

"...So, my lady, it's better to rely on yourself than on others. Xiaotao will always be with you."

"Yes, even if everything goes well this time, my father will be thrown into prison for corruption later. I still have to gain a foothold in the harem to protect my mother's family."

"...Then, young master, please wait until the storm has died down and write a letter home to Lord An, urging him to be an honest official?"

"How could Daddy listen to me..."

I sighed deeply.

......

I did not go to the Queen with Zhen Huan to plead for mercy. I just asked Zhen Huan to find an opportunity to say a few good words for me to the Emperor. Soon, Bao Juan told me that the Emperor decided to thoroughly investigate my father's affairs and clear his name.

The Emperor really took Zhen Huan's words to heart. At the same time, because of my father's imprisonment, the Emperor avoided me. Since the "Jinghong Dance" incident, I have never seen the Emperor again.

Today, Zhen Huan and I went to Xianyue Pavilion to visit Shen Meizhuang, and the emperor also came.

"What a coincidence, you're all here today."

When I looked at everyone gathered here, I knew that something was about to happen to Shen Meizhuang.

Fuling's betrayal, the emperor's wrath, Shen Meizhuang's injustice...

During the whole process, I just said a hypocritical "Your Majesty, please think twice and spare Concubine Shen" and didn't say a word.

Shen Meizhuang didn't help me, and now that I know the ins and outs of the "fake pregnancy", I'm not willing to help her either.

......

In recent days, my life has been quite gloomy.

The scandal of Shen Meizhuang's "fake pregnancy" still had a significant impact on me. Even Zhen Huan, who was as close to me as a sister, was not spared. Our situation became delicate because of this incident.

Even more chilling was the fact that Huang Guiquan was dismissed to the Ministry of Punishment with a single decree, presumably to never see the light of day again. He was replaced by Jiang Zhongmin.

This change undoubtedly wiped out my "gangster collection index." So if I wanted to exchange items for silver in the future, I'd have to find another way.

I couldn't just sit there and wait for the emperor to completely forget me. So, I picked up an embroidery I had made myself and went to the Bitong Academy.

......

"I spent several days embroidering this with the silk brocade that my sister gave me, and I'm giving it to you as a gift."

"The peach tree is young and lush, its flowers are dazzling. My sister is naturally suitable for a family."

After saying that, Zhen Huan led me to her dressing table and dressed me up.

In my previous life, this was the day when I was favored by the emperor, so I will naturally not miss the opportunity in this life.

......

"I urge you not to cherish your golden clothes, but to cherish your youth..."

My singing voice echoed gracefully throughout the Old Summer Palace, and at the same time attracted Concubine Hua.

Because of Shen Meizhuang's "fake pregnancy", the power to assist in managing the six palaces returned to Hua Fei, so like last time, Hua Fei made things difficult for us.

Then the emperor and empress arrived.

“This song is very beautiful.”

The emperor praised me.

"In broad daylight, they are singing such lascivious music in the palace."

Concubine Hua was not convinced.

"Last time, your 'Jinghong Dance' really pleased me. It was excellent. The dance was excellent, the song was refreshing, and you were also refreshing."

......

"It is God's destiny, the emperor decreed:

An Lingrong, the concubine of An Changzai, is respectful and modest, and knows how to act with propriety. She has won my heart. I now grant her the title of Lady An. I decree this!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor."

The next morning, sunlight filtered through the exquisite window lattices of Fanying Pavilion, casting mottled shadows across the ground.

Su Peisheng read the imperial edict and presented the five pieces of floating brocade awarded by the emperor.

The brocade is lustrous and colorful.

After Su Peisheng left, Xiaotao came to my side with a smile:

"Congratulations, young lady! You've become a noble!"

I asked her curiously:

"My 'Emperor's Favor Index' is probably still a long way from 100%, so how come I've been named a noble lady now?"

"Hehe, young lady, the oleander elf told you something before, have you forgotten? The favor index is simply the accumulation of your favors on a daily basis, but due to special circumstances, the title must still be awarded. In your previous life, you were given the title of 'Changzai'. At this moment in this life, you will definitely be promoted. This is the emperor's decree!"

Furthermore, your previous index is still retained, because the 'Stunning Dance' event increased it by 10%, so it jumped from 'Changzai 29%' to 'Guiren 39%'. Hehe, so happy!

Not only was I promoted, but I also retained my index, so I was naturally very happy.

Looking at these five pieces of glittering brocade, I still want to share some of them with the Queen, Concubine Hua and Zhen Huan.

So, I asked Baojuan to take one and went to Taohuawu where the queen lived.

......

Taohuawu is full of colorful flowers and is the most luxurious palace for concubines in the Old Summer Palace.

I slowly walked into Taohuawu and arrived in front of the Queen's bedroom. After respectfully informing her, I was allowed to enter.

The Queen was sitting in front of the window, writing calligraphy, which was the word "隆".
