The Queen has arrived: An Lingrong does not want to fight in the palace after her rebirth

The east is white.

An Lingrong bid farewell to Aunt Xiao and others, got on the sedan chair, and went to the Forbidden City with Rendong.

When it was bright, the sedan chair landed at the side entrance of Shunzhen Gate, and Rendong helped An Lingrong get out of the sedan chair.

An Lingrong looked up. The vermilion palace walls looked like blood under the dazzling sunlight. She was back again.

After Aunt Chang handed An Lingrong over to the eunuch, she bowed to An Lingrong and said goodbye: "My lady, I am leaving now. I hope you will be safe and happy in the palace."

An Lingrong smiled and said softly, "Go away, Aunt Chang. May you live a long and healthy life."

Aunt Chang stared at An Lingrong sharply, then turned and left.

After she walked away, two sedan chairs were seen from afar, one in front and one behind. Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang had arrived.

An Lingrong said to the eunuch who had been waiting, "Please lead the way, eunuch."

It is still the Yanx Palace, still the West Wing Hall, and the plaque has not changed.

"Le Dao Tang." An Lingrong read out softly.

"My lady, this is a great name, which means living a carefree and happy life." The accompanying eunuch said with a flattering smile.

An Lingrong was amused by him and winked at Rendong. Rendong handed a plain purse to the young eunuch, which contained ten taels of silver. The young eunuch took it with a smile and thanked him repeatedly.

"Good luck to my lady. I, Baojuan, greet you." Baojuan, wearing a green silk cheongsam, appeared at the right time.

Baojuan! An Lingrong asked Rendong to help her up and walked into Ledao Hall together.

There was no concubine in the Yanx Palace, but Noble Lady Fucha had the highest position, so she lived in the main hall, and all the palace maids and eunuchs had to obey her orders.

An Lingrong was only assigned three palace maids, Baojuan, Baoque and Baoyuan. Baoque and Baoyuan were only thirteen or fourteen years old and could not be of any important use. They just waited stupidly to pay their respects to An Lingrong.

An Lingrong sat in the main seat, and after accepting the greetings with peace of mind, she said only one sentence: "I won't say much. As time goes by, you will know how to serve you. You will know whether your temperament can be used when the time comes. Honeysuckle will give you the reward."

Several people were puzzled. It was difficult to see clearly what was happening to this new young lady. Others used both kindness and severity when giving lectures, but she only gave one sentence. The three did not dare to think too much and quickly lowered their heads to receive the reward.

After seeing them accept the reward, An Lingrong continued, "I like quietness, and there aren't many things going on around me. All personal matters will still be handled by Rendong, and you can arrange the rest on your own."

The three of them nodded their heads and An Lingrong asked them to leave first and began to wait quietly. If she was not mistaken, because of her performance in the palace selection in this life, the Queen and Concubine Hua would reward her later.

Not long after, the routine reward for new brides entering the palace arrived. Just like in her previous life, it was a batch of brocade. An Lingrong asked Rendong to put it away.

After a while, Concubine Hua and the Queen's people began to move around in the Yanx Palace. The first to be rewarded was Noble Lady Fucha, followed by Xia Dongchun and An Lingrong.

The reward from Concubine Hua was full of jewels and precious stones, fully demonstrating her family background and honor.

The queen's reward was unique. The most eye-catching ones were two batches of plain and clean Suzhou embroidered satin, and the rest were just hairpins with flowers for daily wear.

No matter who gave the reward, An Lingrong thanked them with a smile. After everyone left, she told Rendong to stand at the door.

As expected, Xia Dongchun personally escorted Jianqiu out of the east side hall of Yanxi Palace. Seeing Rendong standing quietly at the door, she couldn't help but come over and taunt her, "They said that the person living here is a concubine from a remote place. It's really a small family. They don't even have a decent maid. She looks like a wild person. How dare they bring her into the palace?"

An Lingrong listened to her and quickly came out of the house: "Hello, Sister Xia."

Xia Dongchun pouted arrogantly: "Who is your sister? I am the daughter of a Baoyi Zuoling family. How dare you, a mere daughter of a county magistrate, try to get close to me."

An Lingrong still had a smile on her face and bowed again: "Greetings, Concubine Xia."

Xia Dongchun was very proud to see that she was tactful, and he stretched his head to take a look at the rewards piled up in the house.

An Lingrong immediately spoke up: "Lingrong was born in a humble family, so she is not worthy of using these valuable items. On the contrary, since you are so beautiful, why don't you lend me some gifts? You can choose any of these rewards."

Xia Dongchun's face turned pale with anger when he heard this: "Do you think I'm a shallow person? Would I covet your little reward? People from poor families are really not presentable."

An Lingrong looked like she was upset because she had said something wrong: "It was Lingrong who said the wrong thing. Please don't be angry, Lady Xia."

Xia Dongchun gritted her teeth, pointed at An Lingrong, left angrily, and went straight into the east wing.

After this interruption, Jianqiu and Zhou Ninghai had already left the Yanxi Palace, and Xia Dongchun never mentioned "using the material given by the Empress to make clothes" again.

An Lingrong also brought Rendong back into the house, and Baojuan brought a cup of freshly brewed tea to An Lingrong.

Honeysuckle took the tea and put it down: "My lady has always only drunk boiled water, go and make a cup."

An Lingrong's throat was damaged by poison in her previous life. To be cautious in this life, when she hired someone, she said that she only drank boiled water.

Baojuan was surprised. How could plain water with a dirty taste be good to drink? But she still went down to boil water as ordered.

After resting for a while, An Lingrong took Rendong to the main hall to pay a visit to Noble Lady Fucha.

Noble Lady Fucha seemed indifferent to An Lingrong's arrival. An Lingrong sat for a while, and then left after presenting her with the Four Seasons Fan Cover she embroidered herself. She said that she would take her time to live a long life.

At night, An Lingrong lay on the bed and began to recite the medical book silently. The content of the book was too horrifying, and she could not leave any trace for people to find out the clues, so An Lingrong used a stupid method to recite the whole book word by word, and repeated it every night before going to bed, striving to engrave the whole book in her bones and blood. As for the original copy, she had burned it by the time she had memorized the whole book.

The next morning, An Lingrong went to pay her respects to Noble Lady Fucha as usual. This time, she received a stack of cakes from Sang'er. An Lingrong ate all the cakes in front of Noble Lady Fucha and finally got a smile from her.

At night, An Lingrong gently woke up Rendong who was sleeping on the edge of the bed.

Rendong immediately woke up and waited quietly for An Lingrong's instructions.

An Lingrong gently stuffed a paper bag into her hand and pointed at Xia Dongchun's residence. Rendong's pupils dilated and her breathing became rapid, but she still held the paper bag in her hand and nodded seriously.

About a quarter of an hour later, Rendong came back and nodded at An Lingrong, with a worried look on her face. She wanted to ask something but didn't dare to.

An Lingrong wanted to explain to her, but her mischievous heart came back and she just waved her hand and told Rendong to go down and rest.

Tomorrow is the day for the whole palace to have an audience with the emperor.
