An Lingrong was returned by the emperor for the first time because he was too nervous. After returning the goods, the little eunuch carried a sedan chair to send An Lingrong back, and in the process of marching, the little eunuch said: It's really unlucky, I have never done such an errand, and the concubines who were sent to the Yangxin Palace were sent back intact.
These words directly made the sensitive An Lingrong break his defense.
The eunuchs in the palace are accustomed to worship high and low. When the subordinates saw that An Lingmeng was so unfavored, they felt that she had no second chance to be favored, so they began to throw their faces at her.
But at the most difficult time for An Lingrong. There are two subordinates who have been respectful to An Lingrong from beginning to end, and the first person is Su Peisheng, the most important eunuch around the emperor.
Su Peisheng doesn't treat An Lingrong as a joke, because he has been walking around the emperor all the year round, and he understands that even if the emperor looks down on An Lingrong this time, the women in this palace will rise and fall, and An Lingrong will always have a chance to turn over, and he can't be offended. Su Peisheng's attitude towards An Lingrong is entirely because of his experience in the harem for a long time.
In addition to Su Peisheng, his apprentice Xiao Xiazi has never fallen into the well for An Lingrong.
We know that Xiao Xiazi is not the real Zhen Huan party. Because he has never directly expressed his allegiance to Zhen Huan. But he usually doesn't like the style of worshipping high and stepping on low, so Xiao Xiazi is really a reassuring talent. For example:
When Concubine Qi, who hadn't seen the emperor for a long time, received the news that the emperor was coming to see Concubine Qi at night, she was overwhelmed with joy, and she had to bear to call her precious third elder brother. It was Xiao Xiazi who reminded Concubine Qi that she should prepare to take over at this time, and don't call the third elder brother. First, Concubine Qi needs to live a two-person world with the emperor, and secondly, she also asked Qi Fei not to say "The third elder brother has grown taller again", which annoys the emperor.
In order to get rid of Nian Qianyao and protect Zhen Huan, the emperor pretended to be dissatisfied with Zhen Huan and drove Zhen Huan to Penglai Prefecture. At this time, everyone thought that Zhen Huan had fallen out of favor, but they couldn't avoid it, and Xiao Xiazi was busy running back and forth to give Zhen Huan everything.
In addition to these kind acts, we can hear the concubine say things like "listen to Xiao Xiazi next to the emperor" in many lines.
You must know that the people around the emperor are the most taboo to spread words. But Xiao Xiazi's loudspeaker has not been handled by the emperor, so there is only one possibility: Xiao Xiazi's main role by the emperor's side is to convey the message that the emperor wants to convey to the harem concubines. Xiao Xiazi is actually a "mouthpiece" of the emperor.
But speaking of which, Xiao Xiazi can have this emotional intelligence, and she has also gone through many detours.
Back then, the Yu family was pampered and arrogant, because Xin Chang was rushing into her, so he imprisoned Xin Changzai, who was higher than her, in the Criminal Justice Division for committing a crime. After the Queen Mother learned about this, she grounded Yu Ying'er for half a month, and took away the title of Yu Ying'er's Miaoyin Lady, and the emperor stopped seeing her because of this. In order to regain her favor, Yu Ying'er ran to kneel outside the Heart Cultivation Palace, hoping that the emperor would see her. But Xiao Xiazi knew that the emperor didn't want to see her, so he refused to pass it on. Yu Ying'er sang directly outside the hall until her voice was hoarse, and then the emperor saw her.
After Yu Ying'er returned to favor, one day the emperor took a nap, and Yu asked Xiao Xiazi to peel walnuts with his bare hands to retaliate against Xiao Xiazi. Xiao Xiazi's hands were directly bloody, and he was punished for delaying the emperor to get up.
Maybe it is because he has been bullied, and because he has been mentioned by his master Su Peisheng, so Xiao Xiazi is different from other eunuchs, he always remembers that when people are in the palace, they must not worship high and low.
Later, Su Peisheng became Zhen Huan's party, and although Xiao Xiazi did not help Zhen Huan explicitly, he automatically became Zhen Huan's help.
In fact, in the story of "The Legend of Zhen Huan", Xiao Xiazi is a little person who doesn't even deserve an ending, but there is a high probability that he followed Su Peisheng to join Zhen Huan's party, at least he ended up with a good ending.
So looking at Zhen Huan's victory from this point of view, only she subdued a few people around the emperor who did not worship high and low, but were capable. And people such as the empress and Nian Shilan didn't know how to "attack" the cautious eunuchs around the emperor. That's the difference between a winner and a loser.
