Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

These past few days, when she went to pay her respects, An Lingrong was constantly subjected to sarcastic remarks from everyone, and she held a grudge against them all.

Five days after An Lingrong served the emperor, the emperor rested for two days before going to other palaces.

Xiao Anzi came in from outside, bowed, and said, "Your Highness, the Emperor has chosen Consort Fucha today!"

"I understand, you may leave." An Lingrong held the tea, her expression unreadable.

"Yes, this servant takes his leave!" Xiao Anzi lowered his head and obediently withdrew.

Baojuan said, "Your Highness, the Emperor definitely likes you the most."

Before An Lingrong could speak, Yunshang scolded her in a low voice, "What are you saying? If this gets out, it will have a bad influence on the young mistress."

Besides, the master doesn't care at all, okay? Who cares if the emperor likes it?

Although it's unlikely these words will get out, it's still important to warn those below to be careful with their words and actions to avoid causing trouble for their master.

"Yes, this servant knows her mistake." Baojuan also realized her mistake and quickly admitted it.

Although Baojuan had been given a mental suggestion and was only loyal to An Lingrong, her personality remained unchanged.

An Lingrong said, "Alright, you can all go about your business. Yunshang, stay here."

"Yes, we will take our leave." Baojuan and Lanxin walked out. Yuqing was not there; she had gone to attend to other matters.

After they left, An Lingrong leaned back and said, "Yunshang, you sit down too."

“Yes, Master.” Yunshang sat down opposite her.

An Lingrong thought that Zhen Huan had been confined to her quarters for three months. Although she wouldn't be out anytime soon, she still had to be careful.

"Xiao Qi, keep an eye on things at Suiyuxuan!"

"Don't worry, host, I'm watching. I'll let you know immediately if anything happens," Xiao Qi replied quickly.

"Ah."

The Emperor spent two days choosing Consort Fucha, then one day choosing Consort Borjigit, followed by two days choosing Consort Xia Dongchun.

After that, she went to Consort Hua's palace in Yikun Palace for three days, and then came to An Lingrong's place.

Now, everyone in the palace can see that Consort Yu of Chuxiu Palace is favored.

Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan are still under house arrest. They have heard the news in the palace and are eager to go out and compete for the emperor's favor. Otherwise, if too much time passes, the emperor will forget about them.

This time, Zhen Huan didn't see anything bad, nor did she discover the musk from Suiyu Pavilion.

The master of Suiyuxuan was out of favor, and the servants became lazy. The Imperial Household Department even cut back on their meals.

Zhen Huan, who didn't receive the same support as Shen Meizhuang in the original story, is now suffering and only wants to get out of the palace as soon as possible, without even considering avoiding the emperor's favor.

An Lingrong thought that if she wanted to be promoted again, it would take a long time in Yongzheng's harem if she didn't get pregnant.

As for the Empress's methods, as soon as she and Yunshang entered the palace, they discovered traces of musk in several places in the hall, and they replaced everything they could.

The items bestowed by the Empress were all soaked in musk, so they were simply collected and not used, to be sold later.

With so much musk in Ulanara Yixiu, she might as well sell it and become rich overnight.

She needed to figure out how to get revenge on the Queen.

Shen Meizhuang's confinement period has ended, and she has already been given a green headband.

In the past two weeks, An Lingrong has been the one who has served the emperor the most. She has absorbed a lot of the emperor's attention and thought it would be good for someone else to share the burden.

Shen Meizhuang had only been out for a few days when the Emperor summoned her for three consecutive days. Recently, the most favored concubine was An Lingrong, followed by Consort Hua and Shen Meizhuang.

Consort Hua was naturally displeased with both of them, especially with An Lingrong, since An Lingrong had served the emperor more times than she had, and she was thinking about how to deal with her.

It wasn't until the Emperor granted Shen Meizhuang the power to assist in managing the six palaces that Consort Hua crossed her bottom line, and her attention shifted from An Lingrong to Shen Meizhuang.

Consort Hua made things difficult for Shen Meizhuang, which gave An Lingrong time to think about her next plan.

Recently, an unexpected event occurred: a new nobleman named Ji Chao suddenly appeared in the previous dynasty. He discovered cowpox, which could prevent smallpox.

The emperor was overjoyed and immediately promoted this lowly ninth-rank official who had been sent to the outlying region several ranks, bestowing upon him the title of Marquis of Shunyi. He also elevated his entire family to the Manchu banner system, making them the most talked-about figures in the capital.

Because he had no powerful backing and was wholeheartedly devoted to serving the emperor, he was considered a loyal subject.

Several days had passed before the news reached the inner palace. An Lingrong returned to the palace, lost in thought.

"Xiao Qi, is this Ji Chao a time traveler from the modern era?"

Xiao Qi has already found the message: "Yes, host."

“He chose to climb up because he had some ambition,” An Lingrong said slowly.

"Host, these things were important in ancient times. Without power and wealth, one could not live a good life."

"What you said makes sense. Has he watched 'Empresses in the Palace'?"

“Host, you should think that men watch less of this, but I found out that he has.”

"That's interesting. He should know everything about the Yongzheng Emperor's harem."

"Yes host."

That day, An Lingrong was summoned by the emperor to accompany him at the Hall of Mental Cultivation. As she approached the entrance, she saw a young official coming out from inside.

Su Peisheng stood to the side and said with a smile, "Please take care, Marquis Shunyi."

"You're too kind, Eunuch Su." Ji Chao's expression was blank, but his attitude was gentle.

An Lingrong and Yunshang arrived at the door. This was Ji Chao, who looked like a serious person, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and a tall and straight figure.

What a coincidence! She had just mentioned him to Xiao Qi, and she met him so soon.

The two also saw An Lingrong. Su Peisheng stepped forward with a smile and said, "Consort Yu has arrived. His Majesty is waiting for you."

An Lingrong did not become arrogant after gaining favor. Following protocol, she said, "Please trouble Eunuch Su to go in and inform them."

"Okay, please wait a moment, sir." Su Peisheng said, just about to walk inside.

Ji Chao glanced at An Lingrong and then lowered his eyes.

I don't think there's a Consort Yu in The Legend of Zhen Huan, right? And Consort Yu's real name is An Lingrong, which I remember. An Lingrong didn't have a title before she was made a concubine.

Most importantly, she doesn't look like the character in the drama; she wasn't this beautiful in the drama.

He had seen all the people in the drama, and they were all the same as in the drama, except for this Consort Yu, which made him think more.

As for how a man like him ended up watching "Empresses in the Palace," it was an accident. But ever since he traveled to the Qing Dynasty, he was very glad that he had watched it.

Only after hearing about the Emperor's deeds did he realize that he had come to the world of Zhen Huan.

He was lost in thought, but he didn't show it on his face.

He bowed to An Lingrong and said, "Greetings, Noble Lady Yu."

"Who is this gentleman?" An Lingrong asked in confusion.

Upon hearing this, Su Peisheng said, "This is the newly appointed Marquis of Shunyi by the Emperor."

An Lingrong nodded and returned the greeting: "Greetings, Marquis of Shunyi."

Then, Su Peisheng went to report, and Ji Chao left immediately, as he wanted to go back and learn more about things in the palace.

An Lingrong waited for Su Peisheng to come out before entering the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Upon entering, she found Yinzhen sitting behind his desk reviewing memorials. She stepped forward and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"Rong'er is here, get up quickly." Yinzhen had grown quite fond of An Lingrong during this time, and he stood up to help her up.
