An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

Chapter 527: The Arrival of Noble Lady Qi

Just after seeing off Zhen Huan, An Lingrong's Yonghe Palace welcomed another new guest.

An Lingrong also felt a little surprised about this.

Because the person who came to visit her right after Zhen Huan was not the concubine who had been on good terms with her in the past.

But for An Lingrong, he was also an "old acquaintance".

"My lady, the noble lady Qi is waiting outside the palace. What do you mean?"

When Fang Ruo came to ask An Lingrong for advice, An Lingrong started laughing.

This noble lady Qi is naturally the daughter of Guwaljia Emin, that is, Guwaljia Wenyuan.

In her previous life, after Guaerjia and the Zhen family put down the Nian Gengyao Rebellion, she was welcomed into the palace as an exception because of her merits.

This time, the Guwalja clan also formed an alliance with Zhen Yuandao. Both sides followed Yongzheng's suggestions and made many contributions in helping him to attack the Nian family.

So, when the queen offered the olive branch, Emin chose to accept it without hesitation.

Not long after Zhen Huan was named Concubine Wan, Guaerjia Wenyuan also entered the palace and was named a noble lady. She was also given a title, the same as An Lingrong's in her previous life, "Qi".

An Lingrong knew Concubine Qi very well and knew that she was a bit scheming, but overall she was similar to Concubine Qi.

This is also the reason why the queen chose to use her for her own benefit in her previous life.

This time, An Lingrong deliberately ignored him, as if this person did not exist.

According to An Lingrong's speculation about Concubine Qi, she probably didn't know that the Queen had already taken a fancy to her. She thought that her ability to enter the palace was not only because her father had made great contributions to the Emperor, but also closely related to her appearance.

At the beginning, after entering the palace, Concubine Qi was assigned to Sui Yuxuan to live with Zhen Huan.

During that time, Concubine Qi felt the emperor's favor from Zhen Huan, and she began to have many little ideas. She pretended to form an alliance with her, but her main purpose was to eliminate Nian Shilian, who had just been deposed.

When Zhen Huan became disillusioned with the Emperor because of her "unworthy behavior", Concubine Qi, like An Lingrong, also became subject to the Queen.

"That's all, let her in."

An Lingrong thought for a moment and saw Fangruo still waiting for her order, so she immediately signaled Fangruo to bring Concubine Qi in.

Although An Lingrong had chosen to ignore Concubine Qi before because she knew her level, this time she took the initiative to come to her house and followed closely behind Zhen Huan. It would be hard to explain if An Lingrong ignored her again.

"Yes, slave, go right away."

After hearing An Lingrong's instructions, Fang Ruo did not dare to persuade her any further.

According to Fangruo's judgment, she felt that Concubine Qi, who came from the Guwaljia clan, was no easy task.

However, after "overstepping the line" with An Lingrong before, Fang Ruo also clearly realized that this young lady was far from being as simple as she thought.

Since An Lingrong's methods are there, there is naturally no need for me to worry about them.

……

"My noble concubine, Guarjia, pays respect to the Empress Yipin!"

When Fang Ruo brought Concubine Qi in, Concubine Qi bowed respectfully to An Lingrong who was sitting in the main seat without any hesitation.

Having said that, while paying her respects, Concubine Qi was secretly sizing up An Lingrong.

Because she was brought into the palace after Zhen Huan was conferred the title of Concubine Wan, she did not attend Zhen Huan's concubine banquet.

As for An Lingrong and others, Concubine Qi had only met them briefly a few times when they went to Jingren Palace to pay their respects to the Queen. As for understanding them, she did not know them at all.

Now that she saw An Lingrong at such a close distance, Concubine Qi instinctively felt curious and inquiring.

But after just two glances, Concubine Qi and An Lingrong's eyes met each other.

This scared her, and after she came to her senses, Concubine Qi quickly looked away.

"Haha, get up."

An Lingrong smiled faintly and gave a hint to Fang Ruo who was standing beside her.

Fang Ruo immediately understood what he meant, and immediately went over to help Concubine Qi's maid to help her up.

"Thank you...my lady!"

It was not until she stood up that Concubine Qi came back to her senses from her trance.

After realizing that she was caught peeking at An Lingrong, Concubine Qi felt an inexplicable sense of shame.

At the same time as she came to her senses, Concubine Qi felt ashamed and angry that she actually felt afraid of a palace concubine who was from a Han army banner.

"Lady Qi, you have just entered the palace. Are you used to everything?"

At this moment, An Lingrong's question came from the side.

Upon hearing this, Concubine Qi did not dare to reveal her inner thoughts, and immediately said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am deeply loved by you, and everything is fine!"

Because she had inexplicably developed a slight fear of An Lingrong just now, after speaking in this way, Concubine Qi felt as if she had regained some confidence.

Fang Ruo originally thought that Concubine Qi came to see An Lingrong at this time just to curry favor with her, but looking at Concubine Qi's appearance, she felt that was not the case.

Until this point, Fangrong could no longer understand Concubine Qi's purpose.

Even if you have just entered the palace and don't understand the forces and camps within it, you should still behave yourself and at least be careful with what you say and do, right?

And if it is because she cannot hold back and wants to get in touch with the faction sooner, then since Concubine Qi has already come to Yonghe Palace, she should naturally try to please them as much as possible, right?

In front of An Lingrong, he praised the Queen who was not there. Fangrong really couldn't understand such behavior.

"Haha, the Empress is the empress, and the master of the six palaces. No wonder the Empress dotes on you, Concubine Qi, who is so beautiful and such a wonderful person."

An Lingrong was well aware of Concubine Qi's little thoughts and had no intention of exposing them. Instead, she went with the flow and directly started to "flatter" her.

"Your Highness, you are overpraising me."

Sure enough, after hearing what An Lingrong said, Concubine Qi immediately became elated.

On the one hand, she also threw her previous awe to the wind.

"Oh, by the way, at this hour, Lady Qi is not staying in her own palace, but is here to see me. What's the matter?"

After a few polite words, An Lingrong brought the conversation back to the main topic.

It was true that she understood Concubine Qi, but An Lingrong was not an expert in Concubine Qi's affairs. Of course, it was impossible for her to figure out Concubine Qi's intentions based on her words and actions.

"To be honest with you, Your Majesty, I know that you and Concubine Wan are good friends. I came to pay my respects to you this time because I have something I want to trouble you with!"

After chatting with An Lingrong, Concubine Qi felt that she might have overthought it before, which was why she felt threatened by Concubine Yi.

At this time, facing An Lingrong's question, she told An Lingrong her purpose without hesitation.
