An Lingrong after rebirth

But the imperial doctors are all men, so it is inconvenient for them to come and go. If there is a nanny, I can also..."

Before An Lingrong could finish her words, the Queen Mother interrupted her: "You are pregnant, don't kneel down at every turn. You can kneel, but my grandson cannot."

An Lingrong was delighted, knowing that the Queen Mother had given in. This was settled. She reached out her hand and asked Lian'er to help her up. She said, "The child in my belly pays respects to the Queen Mother. Thank you, Queen Mother."

Hearing this, the Queen Mother laughed with joy, and then ordered: "Zhuxi, go and call Zhuying!"

Zhu Xi took the order and left. After a cup of tea, Zhu Xi brought in a nanny who looked a few years younger than her and introduced her: "This is Zhu Ying, who has been with the Queen Mother since she was a child and knows some medical knowledge."

Zhu Xi smiled and looked at An Lingrong, saying, "The Queen Mother knew that the young lady was pregnant for the first time, and had planned to have Zhu Ying go to the Yanxi Palace to serve the young lady in a few days. Unexpectedly, the young lady came today. It seems that it is fate."

An Lingrong's face lit up with joy, and she thanked him quickly, "Thank you, Queen Mother. You think of me so much. I don't know how to thank you, Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother said solemnly: "The best way for you to thank me is to give birth to a child safely."

An Lingrong answered respectfully, "Yes, Queen Mother, don't worry. With Aunt Zhuying here, the baby will be born safely."

After chatting for a while, the Queen Mother sent An Lingrong away on the pretext of worshipping Buddha. Zhu Xi helped the Queen Mother into the small Buddhist hall.

As An Lingrong, Zhuying, Qiufang and Lian'er left Shoukang Palace, a young eunuch quietly left Shoukang Palace and went to an unknown place...

Gyeongin Palace

Yi Xiu was holding a brush and writing the word "忍" on the Xuan paper. When Yi Xiu put down the last stroke.

Jianqiu stepped forward and whispered: Your Majesty, Yixiu put down the pen in her hand, picked up the words on the table, crumpled them into a ball and threw them into the waste paper box.

The queen frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"

Jianqiu bowed and answered carefully, "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu just went to Shoukang Palace and took Zhuying with her when she left."

The queen's eyebrows jumped and she asked, "What do you mean?"

Jianqiu quickly explained, "Your Highness, the Queen Mother has temporarily transferred Zhuying to serve in the Yanxi Palace."

The Queen sneered, "This noble lady Shu is really amazing. What's her intention in bringing Zhuying with her? I remember that Zhuying knows some medical knowledge, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. Zhuying and Zhuxi have followed the Queen Mother since they were young and are very loyal." Jianqiu replied.

The queen thought for a moment and ordered, "Jianqiu, check if there are any other people in Zhuying's family."

Jianqiu nodded and replied: "I have already checked. Zhuying is alone and has no one, not even a close relative."

After hearing this, the queen chuckled and said, "It seems that he is a person who cannot be threatened. Then let's try to persuade him with wealth and brocade."

The queen sat down and took a sip of tea. Dissatisfaction was revealed in her eyes. She said sternly, "I asked you to find out her details when you gave her the reward, but you lost your mind because she asked you to take some time. You didn't find out anything, so this result is expected."

Yixiu looked at Jianqiu who was kneeling on the ground with indifference, and said in a cold voice: "Jianqiu, do you admit your guilt?"

Jianqiu's body trembled, and she knelt down quickly, and replied in a trembling voice: "My lady, I was not careful at the moment and was teased by Concubine Shu, and ended up like this. I will definitely make amends."

Yi Xiu sneered and said impatiently, "Make amends? Now she has the Queen Mother to protect her, and she has someone who knows medicine by her side. Do you think we still have a chance?"

Jian Qiu raised her head, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes, and she said, "My lady, I will definitely find a way."

The queen stopped talking and looked coldly at Jiang Defu who was hurrying in from the door.

Jiang Defu walked quickly into the palace, bowed and said, "Empress, someone from Shoukang Palace has come to say that the Empress Dowager wants you to come over for something."

The queen's eyes fell on Jianqiu who was kneeling on the ground. There was a hint of majesty in her voice: "Who is the spy in Shoukang Palace?"

Jianqiu quickly replied: "Your Majesty, he is a young eunuch who is responsible for doing odd jobs. The Queen Mother is cautious, so he can't be placed anywhere else!"

Yi Xiu sneered, his tone full of dissatisfaction: "They are all useless things!"

Jiang Defu and Jianqiu didn't dare to respond. They lowered their heads and didn't dare to look directly into the Queen's eyes.

The queen stood up, her face full of anger, and shouted: "Why are you still kneeling? Follow me to Shoukang Palace!"

Jianqiu got up quickly and carefully helped the queen to the sedan chair outside the palace. They walked towards the direction of Shoukang Palace.

Along the way, the queen didn't speak. Her face was gloomy and she seemed to be thinking about something.

When they arrived at Shoukang Palace, the empress got off the sedan chair and walked into the hall.

Inside the Yanxi Palace

An Lingrong sat on the couch, looked at Zhuying with a smile and said, "I have been feeling very uneasy these past few days.

I felt relieved when the Empress Dowager asked you to come to my side. Auntie knows some medical knowledge and can help me see if there is anything wrong with my palace."

Zhuying received the order from the Queen Mother, so she naturally took it to heart. She responded with a smile, and then, under Qiufang's guidance, she carefully checked it.

An Lingrong has Qiufang's consideration, so there will naturally be no problems in the palace. This is just a test for Zhuying.

An Lingrong took the pregnancy-preserving medicine handed to her by Lian'er, drank it in one breath without hesitation, and then waited quietly for Qiufang to check everywhere in the outer hall, bedroom, and courtyard of Zhuying Hall.

Qiufang handed Zhuying a red envelope and said with a smile: "Thank you, auntie. This is a little gift from my young master. Please accept it."

Zhu Ying smiled and declined, "My lady, you are too polite. How can I be your servant?"

Qiu Fang said quickly, "Aunt is a popular figure around the Empress Dowager, and everyone outside respects you. It's too late to give you this red envelope, I hope Aunt won't be so reserved."

Zhu Ying was happy when she heard this, but she still kept a humble smile on her face and said, "Aunt Qiufang, you are too kind. I am just doing my duty.

Since it is your kindness, I will accept it. If you need any help in the future, just let me know. "

Qiu Fang said gratefully: "Thank you very much, Auntie. It is her blessing that the young lady can receive your care."

Zhu Ying nodded slightly to show her agreement, and responded, "Okay, okay."

Next, they chatted politely with each other about family matters for a while, and Qiufang then took Zhuying to check other places.

"This box looks very special. Could it be that the young lady brought it in from outside the palace?"

Zhuying picked up an exquisite box curiously and opened it gently. Inside was a pair of bright red bracelets.

In an instant, her expression changed suddenly and she couldn't help but blurt out the question.

Qiu Fang's eyes flashed with a subtle glimmer of understanding, but she quickly regained her composure and responded, "I'm not really sure about this. How about we go ask the young lady later?"

"Well, that's good." Zhuying looked at Qiufang thoughtfully, then slowly closed the lid of the box.

After carefully checking the bedroom for about an incense stick of time, Zhu Yingcai finally said, "No problem, we can leave now!"

Qiu Fang pretended to be clueless and just nodded obediently and said, "Okay."

So, the two of them walked out of the palace together. At this moment, An Lingrong happened to hear the sound of approaching footsteps, so she looked up.

When she saw Zhuying following Qiufang with the box in her hand, she understood everything in an instant.

"It seems that Zhuying is still trustworthy for now." An Lingrong thought secretly in her heart.

Zhuying walked forward, knelt down and saluted, then took two steps back, opened the lid of the brocade box, and asked, "My lady, did you bring this brocade box into the palace?"

Does the young lady wear it often? An Lingrong smiled and replied, "This bracelet looks new, beautiful, and has a nice fragrance. I wear it from time to time these days. What's the matter? Is there something wrong with this bracelet?"

Zhuying did not answer but asked, "Where did you get this bracelet?" An Lingrong looked at Zhuying in confusion and said, "Aunt, I can't remember which lady gave it to me. Please tell me, what's wrong with the bracelet?"

Zhu Ying sighed and said, "This bracelet jade is good jade, but after it was made into a bracelet, it was soaked in musk for a long time. It has been stained with the scent of musk, and it will not dissipate for a long time."

The embroidery frame in An Lingrong's hand fell to the ground with a "clack". She said in panic, "Musk? Isn't it bad for women, and even worse for pregnant women? I've been carrying it for several days. Is the baby in my belly okay? My baby..."

Seeing An Lingrong's panic, Zhu Ying sighed inwardly, threw the bracelet on the table, and stepped forward to comfort her: "My lady has only worn it for a few days, it shouldn't hurt the young prince. If you are worried, ask the imperial physician to come and take a look."

An Lingrong had naturally never touched a bracelet before. At this moment, she deliberately protected her belly with her hands to prevent Zhuying from touching her easily. She nodded and said, "Lian'er, let's go to the Imperial Hospital and ask the imperial physician to come."

Lian Er responded and hurried out the door. An Lingrong looked at Qiu Fang and said, "Qiu Fang, I remember that this brocade box was only given after the pregnancy was confirmed.

Go get the gift book and see who sent it. I want to see who wants to harm my child."

Qiufang bent her knees, turned around and went out, and came back with the gift book after a while. "Don't worry, my lady. I'll find it right away."

An Lingrong received quite a few rewards. Qiufang searched for a long time before she found it. She looked terrified. An Lingrong hurriedly asked: Who is it and what happened?

Qiufang swallowed and said, "Master... Master... yes..." but she didn't dare to speak. Zhuying saw this, snatched the notebook, lowered her head and took a look, her face suddenly became serious.

Zhuying held the two notebooks in her hands and did not dare to answer An Lingrong for a moment.

After a long breath, he answered, "My dear, don't you think the bracelet smells good?" Not many people can smell the scent of musk, and the person who gave the bracelet to me probably didn't do it on purpose.

When An Lingrong heard this, her eyes flickered, a look of fear appeared on her face, and her lips trembled. "Aunt......"

Miss Zhuying, rest assured, I know you have been wronged, and it involves the royal heir. I will report this to the Empress Dowager, and we will just wait for the imperial physician to come and diagnose you.

An Lingrong nodded and said, "Then please trouble Aunt Zhuying to go to Shoukang Palace. I will wait for you to come back here, don't worry, my lady."

This dirty thing must be handed over to the Queen Mother for disposal. The Queen Mother is kind and will not allow anyone to harm you since you are pregnant.

An Lingrong lowered her head. Zhu Ying looked at An Lingrong's lonely expression, sighed slightly, bent her knees, grabbed the box on the table, turned around and hurried away.

An Lingrong saw Zhuying leave, raised her head, and sneered. Qiufang asked, "Little one, I don't understand?"

An Lingrong asked, "Qiu Fang, are you wondering why I let the Queen Mother report this matter instead of the Emperor? My lady is smart, and I am stupid."

After answering, Qiufang looked at An Lingrong again, full of questions.

Do you think that the Empress Dowager is obsessed with the glory of the Uya and Ulanara families, and even if it is reported to the Empress Dowager, the position of the Queen cannot be shaken, right?

Yes, that is what I meant.

An Lingrong's lips curled up slightly and she let out a soft laugh. Even if this matter was reported to the emperor, what would happen?

I don't know the gender of the baby in my belly yet, and I am just a humble noble. Will the emperor really make things difficult for the queen because of me? In the end, I am afraid that the big things will be reduced to small things, and the small things will be forgotten.

"My young lady, don't you know that the Queen Mother will not punish the Queen either?" Qiufang on the side couldn't help but say.

An Lingrong turned to look at Qiu Fang and asked softly, "Do you think the Queen Mother can see that what happened today was intentional on my part?"

Hearing this, Qiu Fang couldn't help but look worried, and replied anxiously: "My lady, if the Queen Mother finds out about this and thinks you are scheming, what will happen if Zhu Ying is withdrawn?"

"Withdraw? Impossible." An Lingrong shook her head confidently and continued to explain, "The Queen Mother tried every means to stop the Queen from doing whatever she wanted.

As long as she still has the slightest desire to save the baby in my belly, she will definitely let Zhuying assist me wholeheartedly and will never withdraw easily."

Qiu Fang suddenly realized what was going on, but she was still a little indignant and said, "So are we just going to endure this in silence?"

An Lingrong smiled slightly and said calmly: "Bear it? Maybe..." Before she finished speaking, Lian'er walked in with Luo Rui.

Luo Rui carefully felt An Lingrong's pulse, then carefully wrote out a prescription for pregnancy-maintaining medicine. After giving a few instructions, he turned and left.

Shoukang Palace

The atmosphere in the palace was solemn; both the Empress Dowager and Empress Yixiu had gloomy faces.

The Queen Mother tightly grasped the string of Buddhist beads in her hand, muttering something in her mouth at a very fast speed. After a short pause, she slowly opened her eyes, stared at Yixiu, and said: "As the mother of a country, you have an extremely respected status!

No matter which concubine gave birth to a child, they must respectfully address you as the Queen Mother or the Empress Dowager. Even if another prince ascends the throne in the future, you can still sit firmly on the throne of the Empress Dowager. In this case, why do you have to kill them all?"

Yixiu was shocked when she heard this, but she still tried to remain calm and said in a puzzled manner, "I don't know what the Empress Dowager means by this."

The Queen Mother snorted coldly, a hint of sternness flashed in her eyes, and continued: "Hmph! In the past when I was in the palace, and now in the palace, those concubines had miscarriages and died, do you really think I know nothing about it?

You should know better than anyone who is behind this! Don't think I will put the blame on Concubine Hua! Although she is impatient and irritable, she is innocent in the matter of treating the child."

Yixiu lowered her head, her hands unconsciously clenched the corners of her clothes, and said with a slightly trembling voice: "What the Queen Mother said is very true, but...

I really don't understand, what exactly do you mean by bringing up these old things?"
