"Emperor, how did you bestow titles to those beautiful women?”Imperial Concubine Xian asked the Emperor as she fanned herself in Yangxin Palace Hall.
"You want to know? Then I'll tell you, but you can't be jealous!”The Emperor pulled Imperial Concubine Xian into his arms.
Imperial Concubine Xian was virtuous and beautiful. She was dignified yet playful. She behaved appropriately among the concubines in the harem and had the demeanor of a young lady from a noble family. When she was alone with the Emperor, she was like a little bird and liked to act coquettishly. She had a pair of big eyes on her fair cheeks, not losing out to Guan Ling at all.
Imperial Concubine Xian, who loved the color of concubines, was wearing a dark pink qipao with peonies embroidered on it. There was also a peony on the head of the flag. On both sides of the head of the flag were golden phoenixes with rubies in their beaks hanging on both sides.
Other than the Empress, no one else in the harem could use a phoenix as a hair accessory. Imperial Concubine Xian was specially approved by the Emperor to be used. Moreover, Imperial Concubine Xian was only twenty-three years old this year, and she was already conferred the title of Imperial Concubine. Normally, it was fine to be conferred the title of Imperial Concubine, but the Emperor had specially approved it from the Empress Dowager. Within a few months after she ascended the throne, she was conferred the title of Imperial Concubine. This showed how much the Emperor loved Imperial Concubine Xian.
"Zhen doesn't have the Empress 'decree here. Do you remember who it is?”The Emperor peeled a grape for Imperial Concubine Xian.
"ChenQie remembers, there is someone called Luo Zhiran.”Imperial Concubine Xian ate the grape the Emperor gave her, but her eyes were fixed on the Emperor.
"Ah, Luo Zhiran, her father is Luo Xianjun, one of Zhen's loyal subjects. Tell me, what's wrong with Zhen making her a noble?”
Imperial Concubine Xian leaned against the Emperor's chest and shook her head, saying,""Emperor, please continue."
"En, there is also Gu Shiliang's daughter, Gu Xiangzhu. She is also one of Zhen's great generals, so Zhen cannot mistreat her daughter, so she was given the title of 'Noble Gu'. There is also Lu Wanrou. Zhen heard that her embroidery is very good. Even Kuai Momo, who is by the Empress Dowager's side, praised her. Zhen thinks that it is not bad to make her a noble.”
"Emperor, ChenQie really should take a good mirror for you to see your excitement.”Imperial Concubine Xian pretended to be jealous and stood up.
"Haha, is my Su Xian angry?”
"ChenQie is not that petty!”After saying that, she burrowed into the Emperor's embrace and asked,"Why didn't the emperor agree to it? All of them are Chang Zai and above?"
"It's different this time. Look, only six people have been chosen this time, and they are all my important ministers. How can I mistreat them? The harem and the previous dynasty had always been inseparable.”
"Then the emperor dotes on Su Xian so much, is it because of the previous dynasty?”
"Look at you, Su 'er. Who are you related to in the previous dynasty? Didn't I treat you well because I love you?”Imperial Concubine Xian's face immediately blossomed with joy.
" The Empress has arrived." Imperial Concubine Xian quickly got up from the Emperor's back and greeted the Empress.
"ChenQie pays her respects to the Emperor."
"ChenQie pays her respects to the Empress."
The Empress looked at Imperial Concubine Xian and said with a smile,""Aiya, I didn't know that Sister Imperial Concubine Xian was here. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come so early.”
"It's fine, I'm just here to greet you. Emperor, sister, you guys chat, ChenQie will take her leave first.”Imperial Concubine Xian left after the ceremony.
"Imperial Concubine Xian is really considerate of the Emperor. She even brought grapes for the Emperor.”The Empress looked at the grapes on the table and said.
"No, this is a grape from Tufan. It's very sweet. Empress, come and try it.”The Emperor beckoned the Empress to sit beside him.
"Thank you, Emperor." The Empress strolled over. "Emperor, the newly arrived nobles and Chang Zai ChenQie have all been arranged. The emperor is going to turn over the green head card tonight.”
"Alright, I know." The Emperor touched the Empress 'hand and said.
"Emperor, there's something that ChenQie wants to tell you. Guo Ping's daughter, Guo QingQiong, is still not good at learning etiquette. ChenQie asked Granny Fang to teach her, so she won't be wearing the green head dress tonight.”
"Qingqiong? Haha, she was the only daughter of the Guo family, and she was the youngest. It was inevitable that she would not understand some etiquette. It was not a problem. She just needed to be taught more.”
"Yes."
When Zhi Ran arrived at Yanxi Palace, she saw that the door to the main hall was open. She asked her attendant,"Who lives in the main hall?"
"Reporting to Mistress, that is Lady Yi Pin. Concubine Yi Pin's health had always been very poor, so she did not go out all year round.”
"Oh, I see. Who are you?"
"Replying to Master, this servant's lowly name is Narcissus.”
Zhi Ran looked at Narcissus carefully and saw that her age was similar to hers. Because Narcissus 'family was very poor, Narcissus relied on her uncle's third-grade official position to enter the palace and become a palace maid at the age of twelve.
"And you are…?" Zhi Ran turned to the girl beside her, a girl of about the same age.
"This servant's lowly name is Fei Xing."
"Fei Xing, how old are you this year?"
"Master, seventeen. This servant's father is from the same county government. Two years ago, my father passed away. This servant came to the palace to be a maid for my sister, mother, and concubines.”
When Zhi Ran heard this, she lowered her head and thought to herself. They were both women of the same age. Why could some people be high and mighty as masters, while others could only swallow their anger and be slaves?
"Master, these are the eunuchs of our palace, Little Wei and Little Shun Zi.”Zhi Ran turned around and realized that there were two eunuchs following behind her.
As they spoke, they arrived at the side hall of Yanxi Palace where Zhi Ran lived, Lincui Pavilion.
Fei Xing opened the door. Zhi Ran entered the room to take a look. It was indeed the palace. It was two to three times bigger than the place where she lived at home. Moreover, this was only a side hall of the palace.
The house was especially elegantly tidied up, and most of the furniture was made of ash. The main hall was very large. On the left was the bedroom, and on the right was the reception area. There was a table and a bed. There was a small table on the bed and a very soft cushion on the bed. Zhi Ran touched the table and looked at the fine porcelain tea set on it.
When she opened the bedroom door, she saw a black wooden screen with a painting of Mount Tai on it. The bed was big enough for two people to sleep in. The blanket was made of silk and felt very comfortable. The pillow was also inlaid with jade. There was a layer of curtains outside the bed to prevent mosquitoes.
There was a screen in front of the bathroom to place clothes. Behind the screen was a large wooden bucket. The floor of the bathroom was covered with a Persian carpet. It was very comfortable to walk around and prevent slipping after taking a shower. Zhi Ran nodded." It's really a very good place. BenGong is very satisfied."”
When the servants heard this, they quickly knelt down and thanked him."Thank you for your praise, Master!"
"What are you all doing? Quickly get up. In the future, there is no need to be so formal in front of bengong.”
"How can that be? As servants, we have to make our masters happy!”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420183: 30PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
