For a while, all kinds of rumors about Sui Yuxuan spread.

Some say that Zhen Huan gave Huanbi to the emperor in order to consolidate her favor, while others say that Huanbi used dishonorable means and climbed into his bed while Zhen Huan was away...

The most telling story was that the Emperor was drinking last night and mistook Huanbi for Concubine Wan, and favored her for a while, so I became the master...

However, no matter what, the emperor gave enough face to Zhen Huan. I was favored by the emperor. It was a favor for me to be appointed as an official woman for the first time. Now that I was appointed as a concubine, Huanbi could be regarded as a real lady.

As for Zhen Huan, whether she was willing or not, she could only swallow it all...

Because of this, there seemed to be an inexplicable rift between Zhen Huan and the emperor. The emperor felt that it was Zhen Huan who pushed Huan Bi to him, and Zhen Huan felt that the emperor did not even let his own maid go...

For a while, the emperor never went to Suiyuxuan again, and the harem finally welcomed the rain and dew...

That afternoon, the emperor summoned An Lingrong to serve him in the Yangxin Palace. When An Lingrong arrived, the emperor was rarely busy with government affairs, but was sitting cross-legged on the Luohan bed reading a book.

"May your Majesty be well and healthy." An Lingrong spoke. The emperor suddenly raised his eyes and saw that it was An Lingrong. A trace of disappointment flashed across his eyes. In just a moment, he stretched out his hand and said, "You are here. Come to me."

An Lingrong stood up and sat on the other side of the small table. Seeing a collection of poems on the table, she took it and said, "Your Majesty is reading a collection of poems. Why don't you take a rest and Rong'er will read it to you."

"Rong'er always understands what I'm thinking. If Lady Wan can be as well-behaved and sensible as you..." After the emperor finished speaking, An Lingrong understood that the dog emperor was thinking about both...

"Your Majesty, I care about you too." An Lingrong certainly knew what the emperor liked to hear the most. If he liked to hear it, then she would say it. It would only take some time to talk.

"What about you? Don't you care about me?" The emperor looked at An Lingrong. An Lingrong held her forehead in her heart. The dog emperor was really suspicious!

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you are my heaven. I have only one wish in my life, and that is that everything goes well for Your Majesty..."

"Does the emperor understand Rong'er's feelings?" An Lingrong lowered her head shyly, showing her tenderness and thoughtfulness.

"Rong'er, among my concubines, you understand me the best! You are the only one who cares about me the most!" The emperor said, holding An Lingrong's hand. An Lingrong also smiled gently, picked up the poem and began to read:

"Ten years of life and death are boundless, without thinking, I will never forget..."

When An Lingrong read this, she looked at the emperor. It was because this page was exactly the one the emperor had just read. She was wrong to read it...

"Your Majesty..." An Lingrong looked at the emperor with some sadness.

"It's okay, you and I are in tune with each other, and I'm not afraid of you knowing that I miss her..." The emperor took An Lingrong's hand and placed a heart-shaped knot on the table in An Lingrong's hand.

"Your Majesty..." An Lingrong looked at him. Although she was dissatisfied in her heart, she looked flattered.

"Two silk belts around my waist, a knot of love in my dream... Rong'er, I once had Chunyuan who was of the same heart as me, and now, I have you..." The emperor looked at An Lingrong with a hint of affection in his eyes.

An Lingrong didn't believe it in her heart, but she was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes were covered with a layer of crystal. She took the emperor's hand and said: "Your Majesty, Rong'er..."

The two of them looked at each other for a while, and the emperor pulled An Lingrong into his arms. Until the evening, An Lingrong was leaning on the emperor's arms, reading poems from time to time. It can be said that they were living a peaceful life.

When they went to pay respects to the emperor at Jingren Palace that day, An Lingrong and Noble Lady Fucha met Zhen Huan and Huanbi before they even reached the palace. The two of them walked on the palace road, one in front of the other, with no trace of the deep affection between master and servant as they had in the past.

When Huanbi saw An Lingrong, she remembered the day when she was promoted, when An Lingrong asked Juqing to send her two pieces of brocade as a gift. Then she remembered the humiliation that An Lingrong had inflicted on her in the Old Summer Palace, and her face no longer looked good.

"May the Noble Lady Yi and Noble Lady Fucha be blessed with good health." Huanbi saw the two of them kneeling down to speak, glanced at An Lingrong, and then looked away, no longer looking at her.

An Lingrong and Noble Lady Fucha nodded in return. An Lingrong then said to Zhen Huan, "Noble Lady Wan, didn't you sleep well last night? Why are your eyes so dark and blue?"

"Last night, a wild cat came from nowhere and kept meowing all night. I couldn't sleep well. Let's go quickly, or we'll be late."

Zhen Huan forced a faint smile and walked while talking. An Lingrong and Noble Lady Fucha looked at each other and followed them to Jingren Palace.

Jingren Palace.

When they entered the hall, they saw Concubine Hua had arrived. They bowed to her and only sat down after being told to stand up.

"People say that one should gain weight in autumn, but it seems to me that Concubine Wan has lost a lot of weight in the past few days." Concubine Hua curled her lips and looked at Zhen Huan.

"Thank you for your concern, Empress Hua. It's autumn now and I'm bound to feel hot and dry, so I eat less." Zhen Huan said with a smile and glanced at Huanbi, who lowered her head.

"What does Concubine Wan want to do when she sees Huan Dying? Are you unhappy that Huan Dying is favored by the emperor?" After Concubine Hua finished speaking, she chuckled.

"Concubine Hua, have you forgotten that Huanbi was the maid brought from the mansion by Concubine Wan? Now she is favored and becomes the master. How could she not be happy?" Concubine Qi spoke and looked at Huanbi with a sarcastic look on her face.

Huanbi buried her head even lower. In the past, she only thought that An Lingrong had a bad family background and everyone could put a foot down on her because of her family background. Now that she was favored by Zhen Huan as a servant, she realized how harsh those unpleasant words were and how embarrassing it made her feel!

There was no other reason. Since he became the emperor's favorite, he only favored her that night and never summoned her again.

At first, those servants thought she was the new favorite, and with the support of Concubine Wan, they flattered her in everything. Later, the emperor never summoned her again, and even the queen said she was sick and didn't see her. She still hasn't paid her respects to the queen...

Now, those servants saw that they were not favored and the emperor had not even set foot in Suiyuxuan in recent days. Everyone silently guessed that it was because of them. The servants under them also began to deliberately make things difficult for them. Now their life is even more difficult.

"Really? Lady Wan is really magnanimous. In order to consolidate her favor, she is even willing to give her own personal maid to the emperor. If it were someone else, they really wouldn't be able to do this..." After Concubine Hua finished speaking, she covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief and laughed twice. Concubine Qi and Concubine Xin also curled their lips.

"The Queen is here..." Jiang Fuhai's voice came, and the Queen walked over from the back hall.

"What are you all talking about? So happy?"

The Queen took her seat and spoke. The concubines stood up to greet her. After they sat down, Concubine Qi spoke:

"I didn't say anything, just that Wan Guiren and Huan Yingda have a deep bond. They used to be master and servant, but now they are sisters!"
