"Sister asked Lingrong to come over, but is there anything you want to say to Lingrong?" An Lingrong asked innocently.

But if I think about it, I know that Zhen Huan probably wants to ask me about the lie I told in Jingren Palace. As for this, I have already thought of an excuse.

No matter how Zhen Huan asked, she would not reveal the truth.

"My sister is a smart person, so I'll just tell her straight."

Seeing that An Lingrong knew her intention, Zhen Huan said directly: "I don't understand why my sister lied to the Queen just now?"

Zhen Huan has been thinking about it since An Lingrong said this just now, but until now, she still hasn't figured it out.

Although the queen has no power now, deceiving her is still a serious crime.

An Lingrong was very calm and was not nervous at all about what Zhen Huan said.

"I don't know if you believe it or not, but I did all this for you."

An Lingrong spoke with such sincerity that it really made people feel that she was not pretending.

"?"

Zhen Huan didn't say anything, but looked at her with a puzzled expression, wanting to hear what she would say next, or to give a reasonable explanation.

"Sister, do you know that what the Queen hates most is forming cliques? When you were in the selection, you were already outstanding in appearance, and now you are constantly being beaten by the Holy Fists. Sister, you should know that this will attract jealousy. If everyone is on good terms with you, do you think the Queen will just sit back and watch?"

After listening to An Lingrong, Zhen Huan was silent for a while. Her reasons were indeed convincing.

"In that case, I should thank my sister, but why did my sister help me like this?"

In fact, although she believed it, Zhen Huan always felt that An Lingrong was not that kind.

"Sister, do you still remember the day when we entered the palace for the selection?"

As she spoke, An Lingrong began to recall, but she didn't know if Zhen Huan still remembered: "That day, Lingrong was bullied by Xia, and it was you and Mei who helped Lingrong out. Lingrong will never forget the kindness you showed her that day."

What An Lingrong said was true. Zhen Huan recalled for a while and remembered that it was indeed true.

Taken together, what An Lingrong said didn't sound like a lie. In this way, she is a person who knows how to repay kindness. I was wrong about her just now.

Zhen Huan and An Lingrong were talking in the room, but Huanbi went out.

"This servant pays respects to Concubine Hua."

Huanbi came to Yiku Palace, and coincidentally Nian Shilan was there too, so her trip was not in vain.

Ben Ai thought it was just a matter of luck, but he didn't expect to actually see it.

For the sake of her future happiness, she must inform Concubine Hua about An Lingrong's visit to Suiyuxuan.

"Huanbi, why are you here?"

Nian Shilan was a little surprised to see Huanbi. Shouldn't she be working in Suiyuxuan now? Moreover, he had not summoned her yet.

It seems that something happened in Shuiyuxuan, so I am all ears.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"My lady, it is An who agreed."

Just now in Jingren Palace, Huanbi noticed that when Nian Shilan saw An Lingrong and Zhen Huan appear together, there was something wrong with her expression.

So I paid special attention to it.

"Huh? An Lingrong? Why are you stunned? What could have happened to her?"

Nian Shilan knew that An Lingrong had become much quieter now, but how could Huanbi know about An Lingrong's affairs?

"Just now, An agreed to go back to Suiyuxuan with Concubine Wan."

Huanbi told the truth, and even told Nian Shilan that Zhen Huan had sent everyone away.

"Did you hear what they talked about?"

Nian Shilan asked again.

Since Zhen Huan has asked everyone to leave, it is still unknown what she will say to An Lingrong. Could it be that there is really some change in the relationship between the two of them that she is unaware of?

This An Lingrong is really becoming more and more capable.

"The young lady asked me to wait outside the door, so I naturally couldn't hear anything. I hurried over to report to the queen."

What Huanbi wanted to do was to take this opportunity to show her loyalty to Concubine Hua. After all, she also wanted to rise to prominence.

Why are they both daughters of the Zhen family? Zhen Huan can be the master and be served by others, while I can only be a slave.

"Okay, go down. The emperor will be here soon, and it will be inconvenient for you to stay here."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Nian Shilan let Huanbi go first. As for An Lingrong and Zhen Huan, she decided to observe first. It would be better for An Lingrong to give herself an explanation for this matter.

It’s getting late today, so I’ll just ask tomorrow.

At night, the emperor came.

It looked like he had just taken a shower, and the old man smell on his body had faded a lot.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. You are finally here. Shilan has been waiting for you for a long time."

Nian Shilan said coquettishly.

The emperor reached out his hand and helped Nian Shilan up. After all, he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

But at this moment, Hongli ran out, and the nanny behind him was still chasing him and shouting, "Fourth Prince, Fourth Prince."

"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. May you be blessed with good health and good health."

The emperor, who had been working so hard for so many days, was so heartbroken when he heard Hongli call him "Emperor Father".

But this child is indeed pitiful, having just lost his mother. Although the emperor is tired, he cannot bear to let him feel without his father's love.

"Hurry up and let me hug you."

"Hongli seems to have gained a lot of weight." The emperor held Hongli in his hands and weighed him.

"Your Majesty, please have your meal quickly. You have been tired all day."

After finishing his meal, the emperor chatted with Hongli for a while, checked his homework, and then went to sleep.

The next morning, Nian Shilan took Hongli to the Yangxin Palace to deliver snacks to the emperor.

"Your servant pays respects to Concubine Hua and to the Fourth Prince."

When Su Peisheng saw the two men coming, he hurried forward to greet them.

Usually, Concubine Hua comes to the Yangxin Palace alone, but today she brought the Fourth Prince with her, which is rare.

"I'm here to bring some snacks to the Emperor."

Concubine Hua smiled and said, "Please ask Eunuch Su to pass the message on."

Su Peisheng didn't dare to delay for a moment and went in.

When the emperor heard that Hongli had also arrived, he quickly called the two of them in.

"Why did Concubine Hua bring the Fourth Prince here today?"

Su Peisheng had never seen such a situation before, so he quickly asked Jinxi.

"The Fourth Prince is very attached to our Empress. Ever since Concubine Wang passed away, the Fourth Prince has been living with the Empress. This child without a mother is really pitiful."

As she spoke, Jinxi sighed.

However, the news that Concubine Hua took the Fourth Prince to the Yangxin Palace soon reached the ears of the Empress Dowager.
