An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

On the second day, Mingyu brought the prescription over. Lingrong didn't understand pharmacology, so she thought of sending it out of the palace and asking Aunt Xiao to find a doctor to take a look. If there was no problem, there would be no harm in using the prescription.

Anyway, the prescription has been delivered, and it doesn't matter whether you accept it or not. Since Xia Dongchun is willing to give it, just accept it.

Unexpectedly, Xia Dongchun actually secretly investigated her family. Maybe Xia Dongchun is now more aware of the things happening in her family.

However, this also made Ling Rong wonder if Xia Dongchun was playing dumb to get the upper hand. But then she thought about it again, she died so tragically in her last life, so it seemed a bit unnecessary to doubt her.

Ling Rong shook her head and could only ask Zhao Shui to pay more attention to Xia Dongchun's movements. As for other things, she simply couldn't do it with her current connections.

There is no point in thinking too much about these things. Lingrong was thinking about going to the capital in the next few days, and she started to think about making money again. She had been staying in the palace embroidering these days, and left the affairs outside the palace to Baojuan to inquire about. She arranged for Zhaoshui to build good relationships with the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

A month passed like this, and Lingrong had already embroidered four double-sided handkerchiefs with different colors. Zhaoshui also had some contact with people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs - most of them went to get books in the name of Lingrong, and some even gave her a lot of silver with a very good face, which also gave Lingrong some face when doing certain things.

Therefore, Lingrong finally had the opportunity to contact Liu Tingting outside the palace, and also sold the embroidered silk handkerchiefs through Ruan Hesheng, the eunuch in charge of purchasing in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

In order to conceal the truth, only a small portion of the silver entered the palace, and most of it was sent directly to Aunt Xiao to be used to treat my mother's eyes.

During this month, Zhen Huan was greatly favored in the harem. The Emperor had been in the harem for eleven days, and he had spent eight days resting with Zhen Huan. The remaining three days were with the Queen, Concubine Hua, and Noble Lady Fucha.

The other newly-arrived concubines did not even glance at her. Although Zhen Huan was favored by the emperor, she was still humble and polite, but she was always a little unprepared when facing Concubine Hua.

Lingrong understood that Zhen Huan was just holding a grudge against the humiliation she suffered during the first visit to the palace. Zhen Huan would not take the initiative to harm others, but she would always find an opportunity to repay the harm done to her.

As she thought about it, Ling Rong began to have some thoughts. In her previous life, Shen Meizhuang was favored earlier than Noble Fucha and Zhen Huan. She took good care of Zhen Huan who came to report illness. But she didn't know if they could still be the same as before now that their positions had been switched.

As her mind raced, Ling Rong thought about taking a walk around Sui Yu Xuan. On the one hand, she wanted to satisfy her curiosity about how favored Sui Yu Xuan was now, and on the other hand, she wanted to try and see if she could meet Shen Mei Zhuang.

But the Yanx Palace was very far away from the Suiyuxuan, and Lingrong felt a little tired just after reaching the Jihui Pavilion, so she simply sat in the pavilion to enjoy the cool air.

I thought I could enjoy a moment of peace, but I didn't expect to meet Concubine Jing who was strolling here.

"Your Highness, may your Highness be blessed with good health."

Jingpin smiled and helped Lingrong up, "Why so much formality? We are far away from each other in this palace, and it's rare for us to see each other in private."

"Lingrong would like to spend more time with the Empress, but there is never any chance." Lingrong and Jingpin sat together. There was no interest involved, and the relationship became much more peaceful.

"There's no need for an opportunity. Just get along as friends." Jingpin was very polite. "I don't have many people to talk to in the palace on weekdays. I would like to have someone to chat with."

"I do remember that Concubine Shen lived in Xianfu Palace. I met her several times during the selection process and she looked very friendly."

Jingpin nodded, "She is diligent, but we rarely see each other on weekdays. I heard that she often goes to Suiyuxuan to keep Wan Guiren company."

Lingrong understood immediately after hearing this. She thought that except for paying her respects when necessary, Shen Meizhuang seldom had much private communication with Jingpin. In addition, she did not need to assist in managing the six palaces like in her previous life, so most of the time she went to Suiyuxuan to keep Zhen Huan company.

"I remember Lady Wan said that Lady Shen and she have known each other since childhood, so they must have more things to talk about." Ling Rong sighed and pretended to be envious, "What's more, Lady Wan is favored. If it were me, I would also like to interact with her more so that..."

Ling Rong looked up at Jingpin and swallowed the rest of her words, "I'm sorry for my words. I'm really having a hard time."

Compared with Lingrong, Jingpin had been out of favor for many years. After hearing Lingrong's words, she couldn't help feeling sad. She looked at the lush trees and sighed.

"You are still young. No matter what, there will always be a chance for you to meet the emperor."

Seeing Jingpin comforting her, Lingrong immediately smiled, "With Jingpin's comfort, Lingrong has no more worries. It's more effective than the Buddha. If I can talk to her every day, I'm sure this palace will be filled with joy."

After hearing Lingrong's words, Jingpin couldn't help laughing, but she was thoughtful and soon thought of Shen Meizhuang who lived in the same palace with her.

This Noble Lady Shen prefers to keep Noble Lady Wan company, probably because she wants to take advantage of her sister's favor to gain favor together. If An Lingrong could come to her palace, she would surely have more joy in her daily life.

"You are right to think more about yourself. If you stay with me every day, I am afraid life will be hard to endure."

"How could that be? There are more than just favorites in the harem. There must be some friends around. It's also a wonderful thing to embroider flowers and play chess together."

Although she said this, Lingrong still felt that vying for favor was of utmost importance. Without favor, there was no wealth. The Imperial Household Department was the best at flattering the powerful and bullying the weak. If she remained out of favor, she would probably be tortured to death.

Now she said this in front of Concubine Jing just to win her favor. It would be even better if she could make her more willing to be closer to herself instead of Shen Meizhuang.

"It's better to do it today than to wait for a better day. Sister, come with me to Xianfu Palace to embroider and chat," Jingpin was also kind and simply invited her to Xianfu Palace.

Lingrong readily accepted the offer and did not refuse. The two chatted and laughed all the way to Xianfu Palace. When they reached the door, they met Shen Meizhuang who was just about to go out.

The three of them exchanged greetings, and Shen Meizhuang even invited the two to go see Zhen Huan together. Lingrong knew that Shen Meizhuang just blurted out her words and had no other intentions, but she would not let go of such a good opportunity to alienate them.

After Shen Meizhuang walked away, Ling Rong spoke in confusion, "If we want to pay a visit, it should be Concubine Wan who comes to Xianfu Palace."

"Mrs. Shen said it unintentionally. It's hard for you to take it so seriously."

When Lingrong heard her say this, she was certain that she had indeed left a good impression. She was the kind of sister who was good to her, so she had to do everything she could to protect her image.

"That's right. The people in sister's palace must be the most polite. It's Lingrong's fault." Lingrong apologized with a smile, "But it would be better if sister was more favored."

Jingpin looked at Lingrong in surprise. She didn't expect that there would be a concubine willing to let others be favored. But when she thought of her own situation, she could only smile helplessly.

"I am an old man, how can I compare to you fresh and young people."

"Sister, you are wrong. Old people have their own advantages. No matter what, they will always leave a mark in the emperor's heart," Ling Rong said in a bewitching tone. "It only takes a slight change to make people's eyes light up. Am I right, sister?"

Ling Rong accompanied Jingpin into the main hall. The furnishings in the hall were simple and ancient, and naturally pale in comparison to the palace of the favorite concubine. "Sister, what do you think of Noble Lady Fucha?"

"She is a pampered beauty, but she is pampered too much."

"But she was favored because she played the zither under the crabapple tree in Jiangxuexuan. She was wearing a white peach-like dress. Anyone who saw her would think she was a fairy who had descended into the mortal world."

Jingpin was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood something. It turned out that this sister she had just started dating was not an ignorant girl, but she seemed to have no scheming and easily gave up her true feelings.

Ling Rong didn't care what was going on in her heart, she just looked out the window with her chin in her hand. "Sometimes, a slight change can lead to earth-shaking changes."

Seeing that Jingpin was still hesitant, Lingrong waved Zhaoshui over and said, "My maid is the best at dressing up, why don't you let her do it for you, sister?"

Jingpin finally agreed, bowed in front of the water, and carefully looked at Jingpin's face. After a long while, she called Hanzhu to help her comb Jingpin's hair again and change her into casual clothes. Lingrong looked like a lazy beauty.

Especially her green eyebrows without any makeup and her red lips without any lipstick, the elegant makeup made Jingpin's beauty stand out. In addition, after changing out of the palace dress that looked too solemn and old-fashioned, she looked plump and beautiful.

Jingpin looked at herself in the bronze mirror with a nostalgic look, as if she was thinking of herself when she was seventeen or eighteen years old. But in fact, Jingpin was only twenty-four years old at this time, so why would she dress like an old woman?

"Sister, you are beautiful. If Lingrong could be half as beautiful as her, it would be great." When Lingrong saw Jingpin's beauty, she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. The inferiority deep in her heart was clamoring that her good sisters were always better than her.
