If An Lingrong was reborn before the draft

Lingrong and Aunt Xiao moved into the small courtyard next door at 3 pm. The courtyard was small, with some flowers and plants planted in it, and it was very quiet. There were two main rooms in the courtyard and one kitchen. Lingrong and Aunt Xiao lived in one room, and the other was reserved for the teaching nanny tomorrow.

----------------------------------------------Day 2------------------------------------------------------------

At the end of the Si hour, the eunuch who announced the decree came with the maid to announce the decree: "The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that An Lingrong, the daughter of An Bihuai, the magistrate of Songyang County, is to be conferred the rank of seventh rank and given the title of Jing. She is to enter the palace on September 15th. This is the Emperor's decree."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace"

"Please stand up, both of you,"

"My Lady Jing, this is Aunt Li who teaches etiquette in the palace." After the eunuch Xuanzhi introduced her, Ling Rong immediately bowed to Aunt Li.

"Aunt Li is well"

"What a clever young lady! Young Master Jing is indeed very well-behaved. Young Master Jing's order has been conveyed, and I will go to the next household to announce it." As he said this, he was about to say goodbye and leave.

Ling Rong immediately signaled her aunt to take a purse to him, "Thank you for your compliments, Grandpa. Please have some tea, Grandpa, please don't think it's too little."

"My Lady Jing, you are too polite. I just went to see Mrs. Xia, and she looked very unhappy." The father-in-law showed his delight. It turned out that he knew the rules very well.

"I have seen Jing agree, and may Miss Jing be blessed." Aunt Li also bowed to Lingrong, and Lingrong stepped forward to help Aunt Li up.

"It is my blessing to have my aunt's teaching. There is no need to perform formalities during the teaching." Ling Rong also learned from Zhen Huan's behavior in her previous life. After a lifetime, she also knew that it is better to deal with the King of Hell than with little ghosts.

"Thank you, young lady." Aunt Li was immediately very happy. This young lady was very considerate in her manners and was also courteous to her. This way, she would not be bullied here for the next few days.

Aunt Xiao escorted the eunuch who announced the decree out, while Lingrong chatted with Aunt Li in the room.

"Aunt, shall we start teaching right away, or should you take a rest first?" In fact, Ling Rong had good rules, so she was not afraid of the examination. After all, she had lived in the palace for nearly 10 years in her previous life. Why should she be afraid of this initial assessment?

"Then young lady, please take a few steps first and let me see." Seeing that Lingrong was eager to teach, Aunt Li obeyed her wishes and started now.

Ling Rong began to walk in a proper manner, starting from the door and moving lightly in front of her aunt, then bowed and greeted her. Aunt Li was very satisfied with this, as expected of a person praised by the Queen Mother for being well-behaved, the rules were indeed good, and she acted in a dignified manner.

Then Aunt Li gave Lingrong some guidance on walking, sitting, kneeling, etc. After watching for a long time, Aunt Li felt that An Lingrong did not look like she was entering the palace, but rather like she was going to die, and there was no trace of shyness on her face that would be expected of a married woman.

"My lady, I have something to say. You are well behaved, but you are the emperor's concubine. You should be more delicate when you see the emperor."

Lingrong walked and sat again according to what her aunt taught her. No one had taught her these things before, and no one had told her these things, so she learned them carefully and was more grateful to Aunt Li.

Lingrong thought back to her past life. She had been a concubine in the harem for ten years and had experienced many ups and downs. It seemed that she had never been favored.

She never thought about why she was favored, just like a puppet being led by others. The first time was because of Zhen Huan's recommendation. Shen Meizhuang's fake pregnancy was in trouble and Zhen Huan needed an ally. Well... the emperor didn't look surprised at her at that time, so the emperor favored her just to make an ally for Zhen Huan.

The second time was after Zhen Huan lost her child and Concubine Hua also fell out of favor. The Queen was eager to support her own cronies and pushed Ling Rong to the top. It was this time that Ling Rong sang a song called Picking Lotus. Well... the Emperor's pursuit was Chun Yuan's substitute. Zhen Huan was, and so was Ling Rong. It seemed that it was because of her voice and its similarity to Chun Yuan's that she was favored by the Queen and was named a noble lady.

Lingrong remembered that the person who looked most like Chunyuan was Yurao when she grew up. The emperor had wanted to take her into the palace at first, but it seemed that he gave up because both of them were unwilling.
