An Lingrong's Rebirth: The Lock of Qingqiu

After Concubine Qi left with her palace maid Cui Guo, the noble Fucha finally recovered.

The noble Fucha was frightened and said, "What's going on? How could everything turn out to be like this? What a good cat, Concubine Hua is too cruel."

Wan Changzai said coldly: "Hua Fei's methods have always been vicious and she kills people without even blinking an eye, let alone a cat."

Xia Ruchun was frightened and patted her chest without saying a word.

An Lingrong sighed: "The people under Concubine Hua are too cruel. It's just a cat. Why do they need to make such a big move?"

The matter passed without any danger. Just when everyone thought that the matter had calmed down, time flew by and it was the day of Concubine Hua's birthday.

For Concubine Hua's birthday, almost all the celebrities and nobles in the capital were invited. In addition to a sumptuous banquet, there were also wonderful performances. Even the princes such as Prince Guo and Prince Qinghe sent people or attended in person.

The emperor put down all court affairs and accompanied Concubine Hua in Yikun Palace early in the morning. The two of them even dressed up as lovers.

Concubine Hua was dressed magnificently, her arms were clasped in the emperor's arms, and she leaned half of her body on the emperor regardless of the blazing eyes from behind and left.

The Queen sent Aunt Jianqiu to deliver congratulatory gifts, a pile of colorful boxes of different lengths.

Concubine Hua said happily: "Why didn't the queen come today? Your Majesty, look at how lively it is today. I was thinking that if the queen were here, wouldn't it be even more lively?"

Aunt Jianqiu smiled slightly and said calmly: "Back to the Emperor, the Queen suddenly felt dizzy and unwell this morning, so she ordered the servant to deliver the gift on her behalf. Please forgive me."

The emperor took a step forward and asked with concern: "The queen is dizzy. Is there any doctor?"

Aunt Jianqiu said: "Back to the emperor, Imperial Physician Zhang Xiaolong from the imperial hospital is taking the queen's pulse."

The emperor added: "Okay, let Dr. Zhang take a look at it. If there is any problem, ask someone to report it to me. I will go see the queen again."

Concubine Hua stopped smiling and said: "Your Majesty, the Queen's body is like that. You don't know that today is my concubine's birthday. Your Majesty, you can't leave. There are so many distinguished guests to greet, how can I be busy alone?" "

After Concubine Hua finished speaking, she gave Jianqiu a cold look. After giving the gift, Jianqiu left immediately.

The Queen Mother wanted to take care of the pregnant Hui Guiren, so she also sent Aunt Fangruo to deliver gifts. Aunt Fangruo said a few words of congratulations and left immediately.

Concubine Hua accepted the gift but was merciless.

She did not open any gifts that were sent to her, but asked Songzhi to register them in the register. Then Zhou Ninghai took the eunuchs to move them to the warehouse and put them away first.

After giving gifts, An Lingrong, Wan Changzai, Fucha Guiren, Xia Ruchun, and Chun Guiren gathered around the fireworks pool to watch the excitement.

Amidst the explosions one after another, the smoke rose and dispersed, the sky was filled with stars, and the festive atmosphere of birthdays came out.

"These fireworks are so beautiful, and they can even show a footprint." Chun Chang said, pointing to the fireworks pattern that appeared in the sky.

An Lingrong also thought it was beautiful. She had seen fireworks set off in An's mansion since she was a child. They were ordinary fireworks, how could they compare with the fireworks in the palace.

Immediately, a loud noise came, and An Lingrong felt her ears booming and could not hear anything. After a brief deafness, she saw a large rose mark made of fireworks in the Ruoda sky.

The rose represents Concubine Hua.

After all, the emperor still loved her somewhat, but in comparison, the emperor's love was far less than Concubine Hua's exclusive love.

The emperor's love for Concubine Hua was not as good as preference, but it was much higher than liking.

Concubine Hua's love for the emperor was paranoid and crazy. She was extremely possessive, domineering and arrogant, and could not share it with others.

An Lingrong looked back at Concubine Hua. Concubine Hua's eyes were bright and her head rested on the emperor's shoulder, feeling extremely happy.

Concubine Hua said loudly: "Your Majesty, under the witness of the Emperor and so many people, I have become one year older. Life flies so fast!"

The emperor caressed her hair and said: "Yes, I remember that when you first entered the palace, you were only seventeen years old. You were about the same age as them. You liked to watch the excitement. You once set off fireworks, leaned over the railing, and even picked up firecrackers. , you were so young back then, but now you are older and I am older too, and I no longer have the courage I once had."

Concubine Hua said softly: "Your Majesty, I am so happy. It would be great if I could be so happy every day."

The emperor and Concubine Hua were watching the fireworks in front, loving each other. All the concubines looked at me and I looked at you, smiling at each other.

"Concubine Hua, there is a eunuch outside who has sent a gift, and I want my slave to hand it over to the concubine." Zhou Ninghai handed over a square box.

Concubine Hua was chatting with the emperor, and she had no time to pay attention to Zhou Ninghai. Concubine Hua didn't even raise her head, and said loudly: "You should put it in the warehouse first, and I will look back at it later."

Turning her head, Concubine Hua hugged the emperor again and pressed her whole body against her. The emperor did not refuse and put his arms around her.

"Empress Hua, this is a congratulatory gift from General Nian. Do you want to open it and take a look?" Zhou Ninghai asked again.

This time, it was the emperor's turn to be interested. He probably heard the words "General Nian" and looked back at Zhou Ninghai.

Concubine Hua quickly let go of the emperor's hand, turned around, and shouted: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Get it quickly!"

Concubine Hua happily snatched the box from Zhou Ninghai's hand. The rope on it was firmly tied. She took off the gold hairpin on her head and cut the rope, then gently opened the edge of the box.

A few tufts of snow-white hair were exposed at the corners, and they smelled quite unpleasant.

Concubine Hua couldn't help shouting: "Brother, what did you pass on to me?"

She opened the lid of the box, took one look at it, threw away the box in her hand, and screamed: "Zhou Ninghai, come here quickly."

An Lingrong turned around and everyone gathered around him.

The box hit the ground, tearing a few holes crookedly. Under the box was a large piece of white fur.

It's cat hair! White cat hair! Could it be the cat from Concubine Qi’s house?

The emperor hugged Concubine Hua who jumped on him, pointed at the things on the ground and said: "Zhou Ninghai, open it and take a look."

Zhou Ninghai opened the box with a kick, and there was a white cat lying underneath, but its head was missing, and it looked very scary.

Concubine Hua closed her eyes and kept waving her hands behind her: "Zhou Ninghai, it's really bad luck. Take it away quickly, hurry up!"

There was a trace of anger in the emperor's eyes. He straightened Concubine Hua's body and said, "Whoever did the good deeds, please go down and find out who they are and bring them before me. I will personally punish them."

An imperceptible smile slipped across the corner of An Lingrong's mouth, and it flashed away.

The emperor wants to investigate, but Concubine Hua may not dare to tell the truth.

This cat is the third elder brother's favorite pet. Although the third elder brother has average qualifications, in the final analysis, he is the emperor's biological son.

And the emperor only has three sons, so even if they are not respected, they will still love them.

If the emperor knew, it was Concubine Hua who instigated Zhou Ninghai to kill the third elder brother's beloved pet.

I wonder what the emperor would think?

Sure enough, after Concubine Hua scolded Zhou Ninghai angrily, she hugged the emperor and shouted: "It's really unlucky, Your Majesty, today is my concubine's happy day. Someone must be jealous of the concubine's love with the emperor to do this." A clumsy trick to intimidate concubines."

The emperor said softly: "If you can be more tolerant, I can feel more at ease. Well, let's watch the fireworks."

Concubine Hua killed Concubine Qi's cat, and Concubine Qi took the dead cat as Concubine Hua's birthday gift, and the game ended in a draw.

After just such a fight, Concubine Qi, who did not rely on anyone or rely on anyone, became old enemies with Concubine Hua.

After that day, Concubine Hua and Concubine Qi met each other in the morning meeting, as if they were enemies meeting each other, and they were extremely jealous.

Concubine Hua got Cao Guiren, and the queen got Concubine Qi.

The Queen and Concubine Hua were fighting overtly and covertly, and Concubine Qi, like Cao Guiren, had her anger surfaced and openly sided with the Queen, daring to confront Concubine Hua face to face.
