Chapter 131 Peach Blossom Hairpin, No Guilt
For a moment, Zhen Huan doubted whether the emperor really cared about her. She, Sister Mei and others had put in so much effort, but the emperor simply confined Concubine Hua to her home for a month.
Now, in less than a month, the person is going to be released.
An Lingrong was not too surprised by this result. After all, she saw the obviously different hairpin when Concubine Cao came in.
Naturally, one can guess that the other party's purpose of coming here is to plead for Concubine Hua.
However, the key is not whether to plead for mercy or not, but that the emperor will not keep Concubine Hua locked up for too long for the sake of Nian Gengyao.
Although it has been less than a month now, it has been more than twenty days at most.
Since Concubine Hua took the initiative to ask Concubine Cao to come and see the Emperor, the Emperor would naturally not give Concubine Hua a way out.
It seems that if one wants to overthrow Concubine Hua, one must first overthrow Nian Gengyao who is behind Concubine Hua. Otherwise, Concubine Hua's rise to power is just a matter of thought for the Emperor.

"Sister, this is what happened. Do you think I should go and talk to Concubine Shen about this?"
After much deliberation, An Lingrong decided to run to Chengqian Palace to seek advice from her sister.
"It's hard to talk about this kind of thing."
Fu Cha Zhixi didn't expect that An Lingrong actually watched the entire process of Shen Meizhuang jumping into the pit live. It seems that the plot has indeed deviated a lot now.
You should know that in the original plot, An Lingrong was just a small concubine at this time, but now she has become a noble lady, which means she has gained a firm foothold in this palace.
"But, is there something more important that Sister An hasn't said?"
Fu Cha Zhixi smiled and looked at An Lingrong.
For a moment, An Lingrong didn't react to what her sister was talking about. She blinked blankly and just looked at Fu Cha Zhixi.
"My lady, you are a noble now. You should tell Concubine Xiang the good news as soon as possible."
Chuntao knew the relationship between her mistress and Concubine Xiang, so she smiled and reminded her.
"Sister, I really forgot about this. I heard too much news today. My mind was full of thoughts about Concubine Shen, and I forgot to tell you the good news."
An Lingrong reacted immediately, and shyly took Fu Cha Zhixi's hand and said with a smile.
"You should have told me this good news right away. Look, I've prepared a gift for you. Come and see if you like it."
Fu Cha Zhixi took a sandalwood box from Yu Hu and handed it to An Lingrong, looking at her with a look of satisfaction and said.
An Lingrong took the box with some surprise, and opened it carefully. She found that it was actually a jade hairpin with exquisite workmanship. It was obvious that it was worth a lot of money.
There is a hint of purple at the top of the hairpin, which is carefully carved by the craftsman into a peach blossom. The carving is exquisite and looks lifelike.
"Sister, this is too expensive, I."
An Lingrong loved the hairpin as soon as she saw it, but she also knew how valuable it was, so it was not appropriate for her to just accept it.
"Don't be so polite. Just tell me whether you like it or not."
Fu Cha Zhixi interrupted An Lingrong with a smile, looked at her sincerely and asked.
"Of course I like such a beautiful hairpin."
An Lingrong felt even more embarrassed when she met Fu Cha Zhixi's eyes.
But thinking that her sister always hoped that she could express her thoughts generously, she thought about it and nodded and admitted that she liked him.
"nice! You love it."
"I gave you a gift in the hope of making you happy. You don't have to think that this gift is so valuable. After all, no matter how good something is, it can't compare to the friendship between us, right?"
Fu Cha Zhixi held An Lingrong's hand and spoke.
"Yes, this hairpin was made by the Empress because she thought that you like peach blossoms the most, so she specially drew a pattern and found a special craftsman. It took a long time to make this hairpin."
"The material for this hairpin was also our queen's. She asked the people in Fucha Mansion to spend a lot of effort to find this suitable material and send it in."
Seeing that Lady An looked very touched, Yu Hu also smiled and spoke.
"It just so happened that I finished this hairpin two days ago. I was thinking of finding a suitable opportunity to give it to you. Unexpectedly, your good news came so soon. It seems that this hairpin is indeed very lucky for you."
Fu Cha Zhixi took the hairpin with a smile and put it on An Lingrong's headband.
"Do you like it?"
Fu Cha Zhixi winked at Yu Hu, and the other party quickly took out a bronze mirror and placed it in front of An Lingrong so that she could see her appearance clearly.
"Yes, sister, I really like this hairpin you gave me. I will definitely protect it well."
An Lingrong took off the hairpin and carefully put it back into the wooden box, then looked at Fu Cha Zhixi seriously and said.
"That's not necessary. Good things are meant to be used. If we hide it, wouldn't it be a waste of its beauty?"
Fu Cha Zhixi took out the hairpin and put it back on An Lingrong's head, then spoke with a smile.
"I listen to my sister."
An Lingrong nodded shyly, looked at herself in the mirror wearing a hairpin, and felt a little dazed for a moment.
Is this person still yourself?
In the past, I always looked shy and timid in the mirror. I looked gray and had no desire to attract others to approach me.
But now, the woman in the mirror with a ruddy complexion and firm and bright eyes is very different.
She no longer habitually lowered her head and spoke in a low voice, nor did she look gloomy all day long.
An Lingrong couldn't help but smile at the mirror, and the self in the mirror also smiled at her.
Very good, An Lingrong.
You are getting better and better now.
All this is thanks to my sister.
Thinking of this, An Lingrong shifted her gaze to Fu Cha Zhixi, who was looking at her with admiration.
Perhaps I lived such a miserable and humble life in the first half of my life just to allow myself to meet the most important person in this life.
"Regarding what you said before about Concubine Shen, I actually don't know what advice I should give you."
"I think since she has helped you before, you might as well remind them. As for how she decides to make her decision, that is her own business. You shouldn't interfere too much in her choice."
"After all, what you said is just your personal speculation. It hasn't happened yet, so your words are not very convincing."
"I know you have good intentions, but to avoid your good intentions doing bad things, I suggest that if the other party disagrees with your point of view, you don't need to persuade them anymore. Just do it with a clear conscience."
