How to arrange a palace was a top priority. His Majesty did not list any of them, so Wang Rong said, "According to the family name, all of the concubines should be allocated to one of the secondary halls, so there is no need to be sure of the position of the head of the secondary hall. But in just one month, His Majesty's preferences will become very obvious."
"Then the Imperial Lower Consort Liu Empress said that she wants to move in with the Imperial Lower Consort Yang Empress?" Palace Manager Cui asked.
"Do they want to live in the Palace of the Blades or the Palace of Eternal Harmony?" Wang Rong asked.
"The two empress want to live in Yonghe Palace." Palace Manager Cui said.
"Yes." Wang Rong He said. This time, there are quite a lot of beauties. We should first place them all in the Chuxiu Palace, and then wait for His Majesty's favor to pass. "
"Then what about the previous selection for the Chuxiu Palace?" Palace Manager Cui asked.
"What was it arranged?" Wang Rong asked.
"He said that he was a contestant and in the end, he became a palace maid." Palace Manager Cui said. Once every three years, there will be too many women whom the Emperor will not be able to favor. If I enter the palace for three years, I won't be able to get the favor of the Emperor. "
"Give them the exam." Wang Rong He said, "If you can be like Gu Yanxi, a high ranking palace maid, no matter if you are invited out of the palace at the age of 25, or become a mama, you will still have some hope in life."
"I only hope that they can experience the Empress's painstaking efforts." Palace Manager Cui said.
The Ministry of Rites found an auspicious day and the nine consorts brought it into the Qianqing Palace. That night, Wang Rong and the rest slept soundly, because the restlessness from the talent show seemed to vanish like smoke in the wind.
When he woke up the next day, he was still in a good mood as he instructed, "Send some supplements over to His Majesty today."
When the second wife paid her respects, she still maintained her old face. The concubine who was serving the bed did not need to pay her respects to the empress the next day.
"It's all my sister." Beauty Sun said with resentment. The harem calls you a sister according to your rank. You are young, but you are also an older sister.
"His Majesty said that whoever gives birth to the prince will be promoted. All of you have to hurry as well." Wang Rong He said, "Otherwise, with more and more people in the harem, my Kunning Palace will not be able to stand up to those people." If she didn't, she wouldn't even have the chance to pay respects to the empress in the future.
Everyone began to feel insecure.
Wang Rong He went to pay his respects to the empress dowager. Empress Dowager Chen looked at her expression and asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"
"Thanks to mother, you slept well." Wang Rong He said.
Empress Dowager Chen clicked her tongue in wonder. "This one isn't the first empress, who presided over the Former Emperor's talent selection for the first time at the back. My heart is also sad that I couldn't sleep all night, yet you seem to be completely unaffected?"
Wang Rong He lowered his head and smiled, "This is something that cannot be helped. This is the duty of the empress. This child is only doing his duty."
"Nine concubines in one day." Empress Dowager Chen instructed palace maid as she said, "Send some supplementary items to the Qianqing Palace today."
"However, the rules allowed nine concubines to enter the Qianqing Palace together." Wang Rong smiled and said, "Even the eunuch would advise His Majesty. Yesterday, it was Feng Bao who served in front of His Majesty."
"Within these nine concubines, I wonder who would be liked by His Majesty. Who is lucky enough to give birth to an heir?" Empress Dowager Chen sighed.
Wang Rong and I initially thought that it would take a month to find out what your majesty likes and dislikes, but it seems like one day is enough for your majesty to differentiate between the two. On the third day, eight concubines came to pay respects, and the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng didn't come.
When Imperial Lower Consort Zheng finally came to pay her respects, everyone in the harem regarded her as a thorn in their side.
"Today, I have finally seen the true face of Imperial Lower Consort Zheng's younger sister." Imperial Consort Guo said with a smile that was not a smile.
"Big sister must be joking." Imperial Lower Consort Zheng was a bright and attractive girl, but she was the same type as Imperial Consort Guo. She narrowed her eyes and innocently smiled, "Didn't Big Sis come to Qianqing Palace to send some sweet soup to His Majesty?"
"Ah!" Your Majesty did not let your elder sister in, so your elder sister was not able to see me even though we were separated by Qianqing Palace. " Imperial Lower Consort Zheng tilted her head and said.
The Imperial Consort Guo laughed, "Little sister, you have quite the manner."
"Is Qianqing Palace really that easy to deal with? Even if empress were to go to Qianqing Palace, Esteemed Empress Dowager would still admonish him. Do you think you can be an exception? " Imperial Consort Guo looked at empress and said.
"Does big sister empress want to punish me?" Imperial Lower Consort Zheng looked at Wang Ronghe innocently.
Wang Rong smiled and shook his head, "As long as you serve His Majesty well, how can I punish you?"
"That's good." Imperial Lower Consort Zheng patted her chest and said, "I stayed in the Qianqing Palace for seven days, and during those seven days, Esteemed Empress Dowager did not call me over to reprimand him. I think that it probably won't happen now either, as long as empress does not make things difficult for me, I won't be afraid."
Wang Ronghe said, "I only hope that you will help His Majesty to open up more branches and leaves. This way, more children's laughter will be heard in the imperial harem and I will be happy."
"I will work hard." The Imperial Lower Consort Zheng said, and she said in a slightly embarrassed tone, "Your Majesty always says that you want me to conceive an imperial son, so I will definitely not disappoint you."
"Sister Queen, I don't want to live in the Palace. I want to live in the Palace." The Imperial Lower Consort Zheng said coquettishly, "I want to stay closer to His Majesty, and His Majesty agrees."
"Cheng Gan Palace is the residence of the Imperial Noble Consort. When you give birth to the prince, can we live there again?" Wang Rong said with a smile.
"If you want me to say that the empress is too kind, without any rules, you have to scold someone who is unrestrained and greedy before you can behave yourself." Sun Yige said.
"Who are you?" Imperial Lower Consort Zheng looked at her and said, "If you sit here, I can tolerate Empress Sis. If Imperial Consort Guo Sis speaks in front of me, how dare you shout at me, saying that you want to teach me a lesson?"
Imperial Lower Consort Zheng looked at Wang Rong He and said, "Elder sister, I think she is the one who needs to be taught a lesson."
"This is the first time we're meeting today. Everyone has their own personalities and it'll be great if you get familiar with each other." Wang Rong He said, "I shall pay my respects to the Esteemed Empress Dowager."
The imperial concubines rose to see the empress off.
Imperial Lower Consort Zheng opened her mouth and said, "Elder sister, I also want to pay respects to Esteemed Empress Dowager."
Wang Rong looked at her and said, "Next time, wait until I ask mother, then I'll allow you to go and pay respects, then I'll take you with me."
Waiting until Wang Rong and the others left the palace, Imperial Lower Consort Zheng turned around and looked at Sun Mei with a smile that was not a smile.
"Halt." Imperial Lower Consort Zheng said. "Ru Yi, go slap him."
"You can't, this is still Kunning Palace." Sun Yige said with a trembling voice.
"I can. I am a concubine, and you are a beauty. If I want to beat you, do I have to see where you are?" Imperial Lower Consort Zheng laughed innocently.
The Imperial Consort Guo signaled Sun Bainian to come behind her, "So you're saying, I'm the concubine and you're the concubine, if I want to beat you, I don't even need to look at the place?"
"If elder sister wants to hit me, of course you can." Imperial Consort Guo looked around and said, "But how should I explain this to Your Majesty?"
"Looks like there really is a despicable person who entered the palace." The Imperial Lower Consort Liu continued to read, "Savage once you achieve your goals."
"If the empress didn't value you highly, where did you get the courage to call me that?" Imperial Lower Consort Zheng looked at her and said.
"It's better for little sister to keep a low profile." The Imperial Lower Consort Yang said, "After all, flowers don't have hundreds of red flowers."
"No need to trouble yourself about this, sister." The Imperial Lower Consort Zheng said, "Today I will call you Big Sister, maybe next time it will be your turn to call me Big Sister."
Imperial Lower Consort Zheng did not insist on beating Sun Mei anymore, she smiled at her and said, "Anyway, in the palace, you won't be able to escape."
Imperial Lower Consort Zheng left with a smile.
"How could His Majesty like someone like her?" Someone said in confusion.
"Your Majesty likes her to be smart and lively." "The concubine who served the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng on the same day as him said." When we all lowered our heads and didn't dare look at His Majesty, she was already smiling and saying to His Majesty in a spoiled manner that kneeling is very tiring. "
"His Majesty said that she was very much like a person. She was truly adorable." Another consort added.
Like who? The rest were deep in thought, but even if they knew that the king liked bold people, who would actually dare to be bold to him? That was a line between being bold to his favor and being bold to his own death; no one dared to take the risk.
Imperial Lower Consort Zheng was favored by the harem, and for some reason, even Imperial Consort Guo had to avoid it, let alone others. Imperial Lower Consort Zheng was not polite. If anyone wanted to be a good person in front of her, she would ridicule them. Someone at the same level as her did not have a pet.
Although Wang Rong didn't promise to change palaces with her, the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng had to create the palace flowers she wanted today, and tomorrow she would request for the overseer to open a private stove for her. The day after tomorrow he said that the palace maid wasn't suitable for a change, and she wanted to personally go to the Chuxiu Palace selection.
"In any case, these are women that the Emperor will not favor. Serving me is their good fortune, who knows how many more times I'll be able to see the Emperor in this lifetime." Imperial Lower Consort Zheng said.
Wang Rong didn't allow her to go to the Chuxiu Palace to choose people, but had Palace Manager Cui lead the way and bring the people to the Salty Blossom Palace for the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng to choose.
"The Empress of the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng is very lively and adorable in front of His Majesty." Li Gong said, "To put it bluntly, you often make His Majesty laugh out loud. Zhang Cheng said that you vaguely recall the glory of empress back then."
"Do you believe him just because he said that?" Wang Rong sneered, "I can't compare to Imperial Lower Consort Zheng."
"No matter how you look at her, even ten Imperial Lower Consort Zheng s wouldn't be able to catch up to her." Li Gong said.
"Enough, stop flattering me." Wang Rong He said, "From now on, don't let Imperial Lower Consort Zheng say anything like this, and don't let Zhang Cheng say it again."
"Yes." Li Gong said, "Due to the talent show, the Empress has not requested for an imperial physician to come and request for the safety vein. Why not summon the Imperial Physician Xu here today to request for one?"
Wang Rong He nodded.
But after a while, Li Gong came over with an ugly expression, "Esteemed Empress, the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng's mother had a stomachache, so the Imperial Physician Xu was called over to treat Imperial Lower Consort Zheng. Now, the history of Imperial Hospital Academy and this humble one have come to await the call of the Empress. "
"What?" Wang Rong was shocked. Then forget it. I'm already used to Imperial Physician Xu showing it to me, but I'm not used to others checking my pulse. "
"Empress, your majesty hasn't come to the Kunning Palace for the entire month." Wuyou said worriedly.
"No wonder I feel so good about it." Wang Rong said with a smile.
"Imperial Lower Consort Zheng is truly too presumptuous in front of the Empress." "If this is the case, I am afraid it will be even worse after the birth of the Emperor."
"If she can conceive a son of the Emperor, I can even give her up." Wang Rong said with a smile.
"If Your Majesty doesn't come to the Kunning Palace and is pampered by the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng, I'm afraid that once the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng gives birth to a prince, the Empress will appear." The intentions of the Hibiscus Mutabilis were very clear.
"Worried of His Majesty being crippled?" Compared to the worry of the palace maid, Wang Rong seemed to be more heartless, "Let's wait until that day to be troubled."
"The Empress doesn't care about the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng at all?" Wuyou asked.
On the contrary, she was grateful to the appearance of the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng. Her majesty had someone she liked the best. Compared to him treating her well, her majesty treated her badly, so that she could maintain her upright attitude towards him.
She could not like her majesty. It would be the source of all her pain.
It was much easier to reject someone who was indifferent to her than to reject someone who was good to her.
