Chapter 198 Raise Yourself Again
Chapter 198 Raise Yourself Again
An Lingrong has changed a lot since she had Jing'an.
In the past, because of her humble family background, she never dared to compete with others.
But now, for the sake of her daughter, she will also compete for resources with the mothers of other princesses.
An Lingrong devoted all her love to Jing'an.
As for her daughter, An Lingrong never blamed her for not being a prince, nor did she blame her for not being able to bring more help to her.
On the contrary, An Lingrong felt very fortunate.
She's a princess.
No need to be held hostage by the An family.
Looking at Jing'an, An Lingrong often thinks of her childhood.
The thin, helpless girl who grew up in a smoky backyard.
My mother loves me, but I often fantasize that if I were a boy, my father would not be so cruel to her for the sake of his son.
If she had a legitimate son, would the concubines and illegitimate sons dare not bully her?
A mother who is old and ugly, a mother who cries every day, a mother who is the legal wife but lives a humble life.
The An family that put An Lingrong under suffocation.
An Lingrong was enveloped by maternal love, but her mother's painful experience also frightened her. The An family's backyard became a lifelong shackle for An Lingrong.
It was not until she came to the capital that she was selected by chance. But even so, An Lingrong, who came from a small family in a small place, was out of place in the Forbidden City.
An Lingrong was not the doted and arrogant Xia Dongchun at home, nor was she the intelligent and stunningly beautiful Zhen Huan, nor could she become the dignified and elegant lady of a noble family, Shen Meizhuang.
An Lingrong is just the An Lingrong who is inferior, sensitive, and longing for love.
Because of her status as a concubine and her poor family background, she was looked down upon everywhere and even the palace maids could bully her.
The dark world left An Lingrong with nowhere to escape, until one day.
Someone brought me clothes and charcoal, helped me gain favor, maintained my precarious self-esteem, and did not despise my cruelty.
She even encouraged herself, affirmed herself, and helped herself.
She trusted herself and extended a hand to herself.
An Lingrong really wanted to get closer.
But there are so many people around her, including Xia Dongchun who is more likable than herself, the lovely and innocent Liu Guiren, the intelligent and almost demonic Cao Qinmo, and even Fu Cha Peiyun who is also from a wealthy family and has more in common with her...
There are even so many people, Shen Meizhuang, Xinpin, the new Ye Lanyi, or Zhen Huan's sister Zhen Yurao?
She helped a lot of people.
An Lingrong really wanted to get closer to her, but was afraid that she would be replaced.
After all, Sister Min has given me so much, but I can't help her in any way.
Until then, when her father was convicted and in imminent danger, Sister Min asked her father to help the previous dynasty, and later helped her mother escape from the sea of suffering, trying to get her father transferred to another position and treat her mother's eyes...
Even when her mother wanted to use her to help her father get promoted, Sister Min did not vent her anger on herself or look down on herself. She knew that her mother could not stand up, and she helped Aunt Xiao manage the harem...
There are many, many more...
There were so many that An Lingrong couldn't even count them. All those things made An Lingrong no longer afraid or doubtful.
All that's left is wholehearted devotion, true love, and the willingness to die for one's confidant.
Looking at her daughter, An Lingrong felt like she was seeing her younger self.
Why isn't there another possibility?
Thinking of Sister Min's words, An Lingrong suddenly felt a surge of strength in her heart.
My daughter’s life can be different from my own.
She is the continuation of her own life.
An Lingrong wanted to witness another possibility in her.
Jing'an really has no advantage among the princesses. Wen Yi and Longyue are both extremely favored, and Shuhe is the eldest daughter. Although Jinghe is not favored, she has Concubine Hui as her mother, and she cannot bear the grievance.
On the contrary, it was Jing'an. Her mother's rank was not high enough, and her in-laws were not good enough either. She was the lowest among the princesses.
Isn’t she An Lingrong of the royal family?
However, An Lingrong no longer just focused on these.
She encouraged her daughter to try things and did not suppress her child's nature.
An Lingrong tried her best to give her daughter the best.
An Lingrong spent almost all of the money she was entitled to from a concubine on her daughter.
Jing'an is naughty and likes to run around with his two younger brothers. Actually, Jing'an was not like this at the beginning.
When she was little, she was a somewhat timid child and didn't dare to get close to her brothers.
At first, the princesses played together.
But Wen Yi was being taught together with Hong Yao at that time, Shuhe was older and they couldn't play together. Concubine Jing looked at Longyue like the apple of her eye and didn't think much of herself, a princess of Concubine An. As for Shen Meiyu, Jinghe also stayed in Qixiang Palace, and because of Zhen Huan, the relationship between them was a little strained.
Jing'an felt a little lonely. She envied Honghan and Hongxi who were running freely and playing mischievously.
With An Lingrong's encouragement, Jing'an dared to contact them.
Later it gradually grew into its current appearance.
Jing'an was also criticized for following the two princes to climb up the roof and lift off the tiles.
But this time, An Lingrong withstood the pressure and still supported her daughter.
An Lingrong didn't want to suppress her nature.
Later, An Lingrong dealt with a few palace maids who were gossiping, and Huimin cleared up the palace rules again, and the voice was finally suppressed.
Jing'an is now becoming more and more confident and lively. An Lingrong feels very happy when she sees her like this.
Finally, my daughter took a different path from me.
An Lingrong never mentioned what she should do because Jing'an was a princess, nor did she mention that her mother was only a concubine and was not very conspicuous among the mothers of princes and princesses, so she had to be more cautious. She also did not mention how she should behave in front of Longyue, Jinghe and other mothers who had higher positions.
An Lingrong didn't want her daughter to become like herself because of these things.
Of course, An Lingrong also knew that all this confidence was due to Sister Min’s contribution. She was on good terms with Sister Min, so those high-ranking concubines also gave her some face.
Moreover, Honghan and Hongxi are very protective of their sister. Although the two children look like little tyrants, it is precisely because of this that few princes dare to bully Jing'an.
And Jing'an is now a very powerful person.
For example, Shen Meizhuang's Hongjun sticks to Hongyao every day.
But Hongyao has a good relationship with these brothers and sisters.
Before going to the study room, Hongyao also took Jing to play with them.
But Hongjun disliked everyone except Hongxi, Hongyao's younger brother.
Jinghe and Princess looked even more out of place squeezed among the princes.
Honghan follows Hongyao around all the time, calling him "older brother", which makes Hongjun feel that he is a hindrance.
Several children started fighting with each other.
Hongjun is old but weak, while Honghan is small but strong. When they fight with Hongjun, Jing'an also assists them. It is quite powerful when two fight against one.
It was the fat boy Hongxi who pressed Hongjun under him like a mountain, which not only protected Hongjun but also stopped Honghan and the others from taking action.
But from this incident, it can be seen that Jing'an is also a tiger.
