An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

Ling Rong originally thought that she already knew what He Anming wanted to say.

However, he didn't expect that he was not talking about Wen Shichu and Shen Meizhuang, but about Wen Shichu's development of a prescription.

It would be fine if it was an ordinary prescription, but what Wen Shichu developed was actually a drug for faking death.

However, the medicinal materials needed for this medicine are too precious. Wen Shichu, who has been researching it for a long time, has not been able to develop even a single medicine so far.

"Fake death medicine?"

Lingrong repeated the sentence, and she immediately knew that this medicine was given to her by Zhen Huan. After all, she wanted to leave the palace openly, and faking her death was the most convenient way.

It’s just that although there is a plan, the medicine is hard to come by, so she will have to wait for a while.

"Yes, my lady. But I think that the fake death drug is a fiction, and it would be difficult for Doctor Wen to develop it."

He Anming was not jealous of Wen Shichu, but he also helped to look up many prescriptions for so-called fake death drugs, but in the end they were all just drugs for strengthening the body.

However, Wen Shichu did not tell He Anming what the prescription was. It was not until He Anming accidentally found a similar prescription in an ancient book that he confirmed his guess.

"In fact, there are often rumors among the people that someone can make a fake death drug, or that a fake death drug is sold at a ghost market somewhere."

Ling Rong spoke casually, but she was actually planning to set a trap for Wen Shichu and Zhen Huan. "There are so many doctors hiding outside the palace. Who knows if there really is a drug that can fake death?"

He Anming bowed. He already understood Ling Rong's meaning. The next step was just to go back to the Imperial Hospital, take out the ancient book, and talk about the so-called fake death drug.

"From whom did you hear about the fake death drug?"

"It seems to be a person named Liu, but I can't remember clearly."

Lingrong smiled and said, who else could the person with the surname Liu she was referring to be? It could only be the Miss Liu Tingting who bought the handkerchief she embroidered.

"I understand." He Anming bowed again, "Mrs. Lin's eye disease has almost healed, and Young Master An has been sent to the school in the capital.

My Lord, this is all the information I know."

Hearing that her mother and brother were doing well now, Lingrong felt relieved. When she gave birth, her mother was unable to come to the palace to accompany her, and she had no chance to ask her mother in person how she was doing.

"I would also like to thank Doctor He for diagnosing my mother."

Lingrong was sincerely grateful. After hesitating for a moment, she asked Zhaoshui to prepare some gold and silver as a thank-you gift.

Because apart from these things, she didn't know what else she could give, and she didn't know what He Anming liked.

Medical books, ancient prescriptions? That's a good idea. I can collect some of them and give them to him later.

"Thank you for your reward, my lady." He Anming did not hesitate and accepted the reward very readily. "If you have no other instructions, I will return to the Imperial Hospital first."

Ling Rong was also thinking about whether to ask He Anming to help investigate other matters concerning Wen Shichu, but she felt that it was really inappropriate and therefore did not speak immediately.

He Anming stood aside and waited until Ling Rong said there was nothing else, then he turned and left.

Ling Rong sighed and began to feel a headache for Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang again.

In fact, if Zhen Huan really left the palace, it might not be a bad thing for her.

Without her competing for favor, without her being at odds with me and tripping me up, life in the harem would be much better.

But Lingrong never wanted to let her go as she pleased and fly out of the Forbidden City easily to live a carefree and happy life.

In order to stop her, not only must the fake death drug that Zhen Huan wants be destroyed, but Zhen Huan must also confirm her affair with Prince Guo.

However, Prince Guo rarely enters the palace because he was repeatedly reprimanded by the emperor last year.

Even if Lingrong had a plan, she couldn't seize the right opportunity.

It would be great if Prince Guo was as bold and reckless as Prince Dun.

Lingrong sighed, thinking that Prince Ruo was so angry for his beloved that he contacted Prince Dun in order to get Zhen Huan. The two of them plotted to seize the throne and kill the emperor...

With a flash of her eyes, Ling Rong suddenly had a new idea.

It doesn’t matter whether Prince Guo does it or not, just help plant the seeds of suspicion in the emperor.

"The young master is upset again."

Zhao Shui brought up the cooked summer-cooling soup. Ling Rong looked up and found that it was already dark.

Before I knew it, I had been troubled and worried about Zhen Huan's affairs for a long time.

Lingrong murmured in her heart, watching the soup being tested in water before she picked it up and sipped it slowly.

"But now we have a solution, but we still need to contact the Imperial Observatory."

Ling Rong suddenly thought of how Zhen Huan had used celestial phenomena to trap her in her previous life, so in this life she would also use celestial phenomena to ruin her good deeds.

"It seems that it is not easy to reach out to the Imperial Observatory."

Zhaoshui was quite worried. She cleaned up the empty soup bowls and said, "Since the incident with Concubine Hui, the Emperor has sent people to strictly manage the Imperial Observatory.

If you want to borrow the power of the Imperial Observatory now, I'm afraid it's not as simple as just using silver."

"It's nothing, it's just that Youning has been ill for a long time, I'm a little worried, so I want to ask the Imperial Observatory to take a look."

Ling Rong didn't want to bribe the Imperial Observatory, she just needed these people to say some specious words in front of the emperor.

As for the goal you want to achieve, just say it out loud yourself.

"Please invite the emperor over first."

Lingrong touched her face, and while Zhaoshui went out to invite the emperor, she deliberately painted herself paler.

It just so happens that it was hot today, so Lingrong looked really nervous.

Youning had already fallen asleep by this time, and Lingrong did not disturb the child again. She also specifically asked the servants to be quiet and not disturb her again.

Soon, the emperor came over. No one knew what Zhaoshui said, but he looked anxious.

"Rong'er, how is Youning?"

"emperor……"

Ling Rong held back her tears and walked quickly to hold the emperor's arm. "After Youning took the medicine, her fever finally subsided. I coaxed her for a long time before she fell asleep."

Upon hearing that Youning was no longer seriously injured, the emperor felt relieved.

He held Lingrong's arm and brought her into his arms, patting her back tenderly to comfort her.

"It's good that nothing happened. Let Dr. He wait in Yuedi Yunju for the next few days and take good care of our daughter."

"It would be fine if it was just the normal summer heat, but Youning has not been sleeping well these past few nights.

I am worried that something might have offended Youning."

Lingrong spoke this with great caution. She stumbled over her guess, her voice getting smaller and smaller, but the emperor heard it clearly.

The emperor didn't like to talk about these weird things in the palace, but Lingrong was worried about his daughter after all, so he didn't want to blame her harshly.

"Don't worry about those imaginary things."

The emperor held Lingrong's hand and took her to Youning's bedroom to see the sleeping child together.

Youning's health had improved a lot, so he slept quite soundly without crying or making any fuss.

"See, this isn't a good night's sleep."

The emperor patted Lingrong's hand again, whispered to her to be at ease, and said that he would accompany Lingrong and the princess tonight to prevent her from having any wild thoughts.

As soon as the two of them went out, they heard two wet nurses discussing the princess.

Following Lingrong's previous instructions, the two of them began to talk about how the princess had trouble sleeping at night and cried from time to time, and they didn't know if she had offended anyone.

“I heard that some people with deep resentment don’t want to leave this world even after they die, so they stay where they live.

The princess is young and has clear eyes. Maybe she saw something and was so scared that she couldn't sleep well."

Another one started talking about her hometown, saying that a child’s grandfather passed away, and he missed his grandson so he returned home on the seventh day.

As a result, the child became sick with a fever and didn't get better after half a month.

Later, they found a monk or a Taoist priest to exorcise the child's grandfather, and the child gradually got better.

"What you said is too mysterious. It's even more outrageous than my guess."

"It's better to believe it than not to believe it. Look at our master. He has been having trouble sleeping these past few days. He got a fever today and his face turned pale."

Upon hearing this, the emperor lowered his head to look at Lingrong. Sure enough, her little face was pale and her eyes were dark, making her look pitiful and haggard.

"How is Rong'er?"

Lingrong shook her head slightly. She tried to act pitiful, but also pretended to be strong and said that she was fine.

"I am much better now, but I am worried about Youning, so I asked Zhaoshui to go look for the emperor."

After listening to the wet nurse's private conversation, the two of them did not stand in the hot wind, but held hands and went back to the main hall.

The emperor couldn't stand the heat, so he sat next to the ice basin, fanning himself to cool down.

"Your Majesty, I don't believe in these things about ghosts and gods.

But... I always feel uneasy. Can His Majesty please invite the Imperial Observatory to see if there is anything that has offended Youning?"

"Um……"

The emperor nodded as he listened. When he heard Lingrong mention the Imperial Observatory, he suddenly remembered that Youning was born with a good omen.

If there really was something dirty that affected her, it might mean that someone wanted to influence him as the emperor and even the fate of the country.

"Then ask the Imperial Observatory to come over, so that you can feel more at ease."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lingrong's heart leaped with joy, and even her demeanor became a lot more relaxed.

In the eyes of the emperor, he thought that she had been worried for a long time and only today had the courage to tell him that she wanted to visit the Imperial Observatory.

"If Rong'er wants to find the Imperial Observatory, just send someone to look for it. You foolishly waited for so long."

Unexpectedly, Ling Rong shook her head, poured a cup of tea for the emperor and handed it to him, "I actually don't believe in these things about gods and ghosts, so I never thought of asking the Imperial Observatory.

But these past two days...things have been really strange, so I just had the idea of ​​looking for the Imperial Observatory.

It’s just that…I am a concubine after all, and it is not good for me to see foreign ministers without the emperor’s permission.”

Lingrong naturally said this intentionally in order to leave an impression on the emperor.

This way, when the Emperor finds out that Zhen Huan has had contact with Prince Guo and others, he will remember the affair between them again.

But what Lingrong didn't know was that because of the affair between the Empress Dowager and Longkodo, the Emperor particularly hated his concubines having contact with men outside of his family.

He still seemed to dote on Zhen Huan, but now it was only because of her face, her talent, and her somewhat similar personality.

"Your humble servant greets His Majesty, Lady An."

Not long after, the Imperial Observatory came over. He greeted the two of them honestly and stood aside silently.

His personality is completely different from Ji Weisheng's, and he even seems a bit dull.

"What are the celestial phenomena like these days? Are there any unusual phenomena happening?"

“In reply to the emperor, the Purple Star has been slightly dim these past few days, and the surrounding stars are shining.

Apart from that, there is nothing else unusual.”

The Imperial Astronomical Observatory responded calmly that the changes in the stars were normal and there was no unusual phenomenon.

However, since the emperor asked this, he couldn't say that nothing happened. Otherwise, what was the point of the royal family keeping an idle person like him?

Making alarmist remarks from time to time is the way of survival for every member of the Imperial Observatory.

In fact, they all have some real talents and knowledge, but the destiny of a country is subject to many variables. Unless there is a major event of changing the dynasty, it is difficult to see anything from the celestial phenomena.

"Princess Youning has been feeling a little unwell these past few days. Is this related to this celestial phenomenon?"

The emperor frowned. The Purple Star is the Emperor Star. The Emperor Star is dim. Could it be that there is something wrong with his body?

The Imperial Astronomical Bureau pondered for a while, then mentioned the astronomical phenomenon when Youning spoke, and combined it with the astronomical phenomena in recent days, and carefully shared it with the emperor, "The stars around the Emperor Star are twinkling, which may indicate that someone around the emperor has ulterior motives.

Princess Youning is not feeling well, and I am afraid those people have already made a move, causing her fate to change."

"what?!"

Lingrong cried out in surprise, then she covered her lips as if she had realized it belatedly, while her worried eyes looked towards the emperor.

After getting the emperor's nod of approval, Ling Rong spoke, "But Youning is in the harem, could it be that there is someone with ulterior motives in the harem?"

The Imperial Observatory borrowed a pole and climbed up, but he couldn't say anything for sure, so he just said vaguely that it was a possibility.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, I can only ask Your Majesty to send someone to help this concubine check the people around her."

Lingrong simply asked the emperor to check the people around her again.

But then, she pretended to be worried and mentioned other concubines, "Should we check around the other concubines, especially those who have children.

What if someone makes a wrong decision and harms other princesses and princes? "

The emperor nodded. He had been busy with the affairs of the previous dynasty these days. On the one hand, he was investigating Prince Dun, and on the other hand, he had to be on guard against Nian Gengyao. He actually forgot about the affairs of the harem.

If someone uses the concubines... or other servants to murder the royal heir or even himself, wouldn't he lose his life in a foolish way and hand over the throne to someone else?

The emperor remembered what the Imperial Observatory had just said about the dimming of the Purple Star, and he couldn't help but shudder.

This harem really needs a thorough investigation.
