"Also tell Huang Guiquan that starting tomorrow, have the Ministry of Internal Affairs send a few jade-table golden cups to each palace. Place them where the master can see and smell them, especially in Jingren Palace. Don't leave any out."
Concubine Hua was playing with a bald jade cup with a smug smile on her face.
"Remember, don't reveal me. Let Huang Guiquan think carefully before doing anything. I haven't settled the score with him for Yu's matter yet!"
Songzhi didn't dare to look up. Hearing that Concubine Hua had no other instructions, she hurried out to do her errand and replaced her with Liuxiang to serve her.
If she stayed here for a while longer, Songzhi felt that Concubine Hua would be able to masturbate herself to a bald spot.

Xianfu Palace.
After the emperor left, Shen Meizhuang happened to wake up from her nap.
Seeing Lingrong sitting outside the bedroom doing embroidery for herself, the afternoon winter sun shone into the hall through the paper window, and a spot of it happened to fall on the corner of An Lingrong's skirt, making it sparkle brightly.
Shen Meizhuang just felt that the present time was peaceful and tranquil. After some time, she would be able to tell Huan'er and Lingrong that she was pregnant.
"Sister is awake." Ling Rong saw Shen Meizhuang coming out from the inner room, put down the embroidery frame and smiled at Shen Meizhuang.
"Why don't you take a break after coaxing Wen Yi? And why are you here to do this embroidery for me?"
"I'm not sleepy today, so I thought I should say hello to my sister before leaving, so I'll wait here for a while."
An Lingrong had just met the Emperor, and she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.
Seeing this, Shen Meizhuang began to speculate, "Have you seen the emperor?"
"Yes, I just saw it. Lingrong still wants to thank Sister and Sister Jingfei for promoting her."
Shen Meizhuang felt very relieved. She and An Lingrong only met on the day of the talent show because of Xia Dongchun's unreasonable demands. Their friendship could not compare to the affection she and Huan'er had since childhood.
But Lingrong's current frankness made Shen Meizhuang feel closer to An Lingrong.
"This is also because you have worked hard to make yourself proud. God has eyes and will never let you, a pearl, be covered in dust." Shen Meizhuang took the initiative to hold An Lingrong's hand, "Now that Huan'er is sick and I am out of favor, one of us sisters must make a name for ourselves."
"Lingrong will definitely live up to sister's expectations." An Lingrong lowered her eyes. She felt that the gap between herself and Shen Meiyu was not that big.
Perhaps, she can really become the pillar of support among the three sisters.
She can be needed too.
"Get ready and wait for the emperor to summon you tonight."
-------------------------------------
When An Lingrong and Baoque returned to the side hall of the Yanx Palace, Baojuan was already waiting there.
"My dear, you are back. Where have you been? Why didn't you let me follow you?" Baojuan was very happy because she had found a way to cure bad breath. She was smiling from ear to ear.
"Where can I go? I'm just going to visit Sister Mei. Don't worry, Bao Que is with me."
An Lingrong sat down and took a sip of tea, which was some Lu'an tea that Sister Zhen had packed for her. It was indeed sweet.
Liu'an tea was originally a tribute to the imperial court. An Lingrong's family was weak, so she could not drink such good tea. When she first entered the Zhen Mansion, An Lingrong felt that such tea was not as tasty as scented tea.
But after entering the palace, she often received help from Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, and An Lingrong also fell in love with the light but lingering fragrance of Lu'an tea.
This person's preferences will indeed change with the circumstances.
"Hasn't the greenhouse always said that it doesn't have these precious jade cups and golden cups? Why did they send so many today?" An Lingrong glanced at the jade cups and golden cups on the round table.
"Congratulations, my lady. Congratulations, my lady. The Emperor has turned over your name card tonight." Baojuan answered happily.
After Baoque heard this, he also congratulated them.
An Lingrong was a little excited when she heard the news, but it was also within her expectations. She lowered her head, pulled out her handkerchief, pressed her lips and said, "In that case, you and Baoque should help me get dressed and ready."
"I will do your makeup for you. Later, the servants from the Ministry of Internal Affairs will come to take you to Yanxi Hall behind the Yangxin Palace to bathe and change clothes."
Baojuan was absent from her duties and did not go to Xianfu Palace with An Lingrong, so she is now paying extra attention to An Lingrong.
Baoque didn't stop him and went out to do other things.
In the evening, the Fengluan Chun'en carriage stopped at the gate of the Yanx Palace. Fucha took a look through the window and realized that it was not to pick her up, so she snorted and asked the palace maid to close the door.
An Lingrong faced the bronze mirror and lightly put on makeup. She was still a little nervous and her body felt a little cold and trembling.
Baoque saw the uneasiness in An Lingrong's eyes through the mirror. Seeing that Baojuan had gone out to inform Xiao Xiazi of the news, he handed An Lingrong a cup of licorice lemon tea.
"My lady, don't be nervous. Have a cup of tea and relax. This is what Concubine Hua asked Miss Songzhi to bring to you. She said it can help you calm down and your great plans will be accomplished."
When An Lingrong smelled the aroma of licorice, her body relaxed a little. When she heard that Concubine Hua had Songzhi send it to her, she immediately drank it up.
After drinking a cup of hot tea, An Lingrong felt much more at ease. She let Baoque help her go out and get on the Fengluan Chun'en carriage.
Outside the Yanxi Palace, Baojuan and Xiao Xiazi looked at An Lingrong with smiles on their faces.
Baojuan had secretly given Xiao Xiazi some money, and Xiao Xiazi was also very polite to An Lingrong.
The one hundred taels of gold that the emperor had just awarded were also delivered by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so An Lingrong had some extra money on her hands and didn't care about this small reward.
"My lady, please get in the carriage quickly. The Emperor has been thinking about you since he saw you in the afternoon. He is waiting for you in the Yangxin Palace now."
After receiving a heavy purse, Xiao Xiazi now looked at An Lingrong with a beaming smile as if he were the God of Wealth.
Xiao Xiazi didn't expect that the God of Wealth would pave the way for him recently. First, Miss Songzhi asked him to rub a rattle and gave him a small bag of silver. Now, she drove a phoenix and spring grace carriage and gave him another bag of silver.
"Thank you for taking the trip, Eunuch. Sorry for bothering you." Seeing An Lingrong's gentleness and courtesy, Xiao Xiazi thought of that shrew Yu and became even more respectful to An Lingrong.
"My lady, that's not right. This is my job. Please get in the carriage slowly and don't bump into anything." Xiao Xiazi helped An Lingrong get into the carriage.
In fact, there was no need for Xiao Xiazi to do anything if there was any stepping on the enemy's feet, but Xiao Xiazi absolutely could not miss the opportunity to show his goodwill to the God of Wealth.
An Lingrong felt that the palace was much brighter.
When they arrived at Yan Xitang, An Lingrong allowed Aunt Fangruo and a group of palace maids to bathe her, change her clothes and comb her hair. Fangruo gently explained some of the rules for palace concubines to sleep with the emperor, and comforted An Lingrong not to be nervous.
"Thank you for your teachings, aunt." An Lingrong was indeed very relaxed now. Perhaps it was because of the cup of hot tea before leaving the palace. The shivering feeling had dissipated a lot before getting in the car.
An Lingrong was wrapped in a quilt and carried into the Yangxin Palace by a young eunuch.
The emperor had been thinking about the beautiful woman whose singing voice sounded like Chun Yuan the whole afternoon. He was so excited that he had already bathed, changed his clothes and waited in the bedroom.
But for some reason, the longer the emperor waited, the colder he felt and the more he shivered.
Could it be that he hasn't seen a woman like Chun Yuan in a long time and is feeling excited?
When An Lingrong came in, the emperor was already shaking from the cold and couldn't control himself.
An Lingrong looked through the quilt at the trembling emperor who did not take the next step, and asked with concern:
"Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell?"
"Rong'er, I'm a little nervous."
