Chapter 67 An Lingrong (67)
Prince Dun was already very unhappy because the Emperor had recently been picking on his beloved eighth and ninth brothers. Now that he saw that the Emperor didn't even take his precious daughter with him on a public-funded tour, he was even more dissatisfied!
When Prince Dun thought that the ones causing the trouble were Zhen Yuandao and Zhen Huan, father and daughter, he could hardly contain the primordial power in his body.
When Zhen Yuandao and his colleagues from the Censorate once again reported his 108 crimes, Prince Dun's Baturu bloodline awakened and gave Zhen Yuandao a bruised and battered face like both father and daughter.
The emperor cursed "how outrageous" with full force, and then... he sent someone to bring Princess Gongding to the Old Summer Palace.
For the sake of his precious daughter, Prince Dun reluctantly apologized to Zhen Yuandao.
After being beaten up by the emperor, Zhen Yuandao learned his lesson. He then took a few colleagues with him and secretly reported to the emperor the 1080 crimes of Prince Cricket Dun.
The former emperor's anger is getting worse day by day. In the harem, those on Concubine Hua's team wish they could ask for greetings ten times a day so they can carefully appreciate the panda eyes on Zhen Huan's face.
You ask why Zhen Huan came to pay respects despite being so injured? Isn't it Gong Ding who came?
She is now dissatisfied with everything about Zhen Huan. Zhen Huan's legs are not injured, and she is not unable to move. If she does not come to pay her respects, she will sue Zhen Huan for disrespect!
This time when he came to the Old Summer Palace, perhaps because he felt that Zhen Huan and her father had given too much for him, the emperor rarely went anywhere other than the Bitong Academy.
When the Emperor didn't come, An Lingrong would eat melons and watch Zhen Huan's fun every day, and then find time to learn foreign languages. She felt that her life was actually not bad.
She had been in bed with the emperor a lot recently, and she had already paid off all the points she owed in advance. Although the interest paid in advance would not be refunded, she still felt more at ease if she paid in advance. After coming to Yuanmingyuan, she had plenty of time to study English. Time paid off, and after spending a lot of time and energy, An Lingrong finally started studying English for the second semester of the third grade of elementary school. Now, her points balance is 203.5.
That night, An Lingrong was just about to recite a few more English words in her mind before going to bed when the Emperor's voice suddenly rang out from behind her: "Why aren't you sleeping so late?"
An Lingrong was shocked, but at this moment she had to be thankful that the system was still somewhat useful. Her study materials were always kept in the system space, and every time she studied, she would use her consciousness to study in the space while her body pretended to be sleeping or in a daze.
But now was not the time to talk about this, An Lingrong hurriedly bowed to the emperor, "Your Majesty, why did you think of coming to my place today?"
The emperor pulled An Lingrong up before she could completely squat down: "Are you not happy that I'm here? In that case, shall I go sit with Concubine Wan?"
The emperor was about to leave, and An Lingrong hurriedly hugged him from behind, "How could I not be happy that the emperor is here? It's just that I'm too surprised that I ask this. The emperor has finally come to my place, and I can't bear to give you to Wanpin~"
Since the Emperor had come to An Lingrong's place, he would not embarrass her. He was just teasing An Lingrong. He joked with An Lingrong for a few more words, and then he mentioned the purpose of his visit this time: "...Prince Dun of the previous dynasty is becoming more and more unreasonable, and I am unwilling to tolerate it. After returning to the palace this time, there will be a big storm, and Gong Ding is really unreasonable. I am afraid that he will hurt you...Are you willing to go to Penglai Island for safety?"
An Lingrong never thought that the emperor would say such words to her. After being flattered for a moment, she immediately expressed her opinion: "The emperor is willing to disclose such an important matter to me, which shows that the emperor cares about me. The emperor is worried about my comfort, so how can I not worry about the emperor? Although I can't help much, I am willing to stand by the emperor. I will not go to Penglai Island, nor do I want to avoid any danger. The emperor is my husband, and even more so my heaven. If the sky collapses, what hope do I have? If there is any mistake with the emperor, I will not live alone!"
An Lingrong's words were full of affection and loyalty. The emperor tried to persuade her a few more times. Seeing that An Lingrong was determined and insisted on following him back to the capital, he finally patted her hand and said, "Then it's up to you."
The emperor left with a heart full of emotion. An Lingrong felt a rare pang of conscience. It was such a sin. It was time for Concubine Yu and the Fifth Prince to leave.
Not long after, the emperor held a banquet at Jiuzhou Qingyan. During the banquet, Concubine Wan had disputes with Princess Gongding many times. Finally, the emperor could no longer tolerate it and reprimanded Concubine Wan for daring to disrespect the princess of the royal family. He ordered Concubine Wan to go to Penglai Island to reflect on her mistakes starting tomorrow.
It is said that on the second day, Bi Da Ying did not even dare to see Wan Bin off, but Chun Chang Zai was very loyal and accompanied Wan Bin to Penglai Island to suffer.
According to An Lingrong, the emperor's play was too fake.
Apart from other things, which emperor would you see asking his personal eunuch, the number one eunuch in the Palace of Heavenly Purity, to escort a concubine who had fallen out of favor to the cold palace? Su Peisheng not only personally escorted Zhen Huan to Penglai Island for the first time, but he also never missed the chance to deliver supplies afterwards. How many eunuchs in the Palace of Heavenly Purity have you seen so idle?
An Lingrong thought it was fake because she was too careful and observant and knew the original plot; the Queen thought something was fishy because she had been with the Emperor for so many years and knew his style too well. If you don't believe me, look at Princess Gongding and Prince Dun, they didn't think it was fake.
After returning to the Forbidden City, Princess Gongding was still very arrogant and was always critical of the other concubines, especially Bi, the only remaining concubine in Zhen Huan's faction. But with Zhen Huan's lesson in mind, everyone was very tolerant of her.
This made Princess Gongding even more arrogant. Finally one day, news came from Shoukang Palace that the Empress Dowager had become ill due to anger, and the Emperor asked the wife of Prince Dun to bring the prince to take care of her.
The Hua Guifei team had already discussed with the Nian family outside the palace. Once there was any unusual movement in Prince Dun's mansion, they would take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
An Lingrong asked Baoshu to close the door early. Although the emperor was victorious in the previous life, Prince Dun's rebellion failed, and the concubines in the harem were not affected, but who knows if there will be any accidents in this life?
Just like Concubine Yu and the Fifth Prince, if nothing unexpected happens, tonight will be the day they die in this life!
An Lingrong was terrified for the whole night, and finally realized that if accidents were not created by humans, there would not be so many accidents in the world.
Prince Dun was captured by the Cavalry Battalion last night. Nothing unexpected happened in the palace and the Emperor successfully suppressed the rebellion, just like he did in his previous life.
When Prince Dun was arrested, the Emperor was very pleased and immediately ordered Xiao Xiazi to take the imperial guards to Penglai Island to bring back his meritorious minister Zhen Huan.
Zhen Huan was brought back, but Xiao Xiazi, who was assigned this task, returned to the Forbidden City with a sad face.
"Your Majesty, Prince Dun is resentful of Concubine Wan for making Princess Gongding unhappy. Last night, he sent a group of rebels to the Old Summer Palace to try to kill Concubine Wan to vent Princess Gongding's anger. But Penglai Island is remote and difficult to find at night. They couldn't find Concubine Wan, so... so..."
"Just what? Hurry up and say it! How can you be so hesitant in front of the emperor?" Su Peisheng was afraid that the emperor would get angry, so he kicked Xiao Xiazi lightly before the emperor did.
Xiao Xiazi knelt on the ground, not daring to look at the emperor's expression: "Kill Yupin and the Fifth Prince who lived in the Old Summer Palace together!"
