Because of Imperial Consort Guo's position and because she was the Empress's trusted aide, the two of them were called to take charge of the palace. In their hearts, they were prepared for it, but they were completely surprised by their concubines and their Imperial Lower Consort Lan. They never expected that a fat person like her, who was in charge of the palace, would fall to them.
When you go to the Kunning Palace to meet with the Empress, your concubine will do whatever is necessary to flatter you.
"Being in charge of the palace wasn't a fixed rule. If you don't do it well, I will switch people. So, you must not let down your guard." Wang Rong laughed and said that Palace Manager Cui was also present. No matter who was in charge of the palace, in reality, it was still the Palace Manager who were in charge of handling these matters. Palace Manager Cui had to remember which Empress was in charge of which aspect she was in charge of.
"Although you are in charge of the four parts of the palace affairs, I hope that you can work together in handling the daily affairs of the palace. You can also discuss with each other if there are any matters." Wang Rong He said. With Palace Manager Cui assisting you, you can't let her escape from the four palaces by herself, it was all for nothing. With regards to foreign affairs, if you don't decide, you can go to the Ci Ning Palace and request for a leave of absence. Mother and mother might call for you guys to inquire about it.
"We will not disappoint the Empress." The four of them said in unison.
manages the banquet and the finances of the harem. My noble concubines manage the various palaces to decorate fresh flowers and change the season to serve the palace maid. "Many of the palace duties are trivial and interconnected, such as the setting up of the banquet requires the transfer of staff, the decoration of the flowers, and the dining room guards. So this is the reason why I ask you to be together in handling the palace duties."
"This is the first time we've come in contact with palace servants. Our hearts are filled with fear, afraid that if we do anything wrong, we will betray the Empress's trust." The Imperial Lower Consort Yang said, "We can handle things together, we can discuss things, or point out flaws to each other. There's really no point in doing so.
"The noble rank and rank of the imperial concubine can hold a banquet for the sisters to have fun with. There are so many palace maid behind us, so there should be people having birthdays every month. Wang Rong He said, "Previously, everyone was very reserved, and their birthdays were merely a birthday feast for the supervisors. Faculty Division is so idle that they are flustered, and should find something for them to do."
"In the next few days, you guys will be handling official matters with me. When you guys get into business, I'll be the one who leaves things to my own devices." Wang Rong said with a smile. "If you feel that you're not strong enough, it would be good for you to find a few concubines you like to help you."
Although it was said that they were dealing with palace affairs, they were only nodding their heads when Palace Manager Cui reported on her work in an orderly manner. The other four people were obviously not so relaxed. They all listened with rapt attention, afraid that they would miss out on any details.
"Imperial Physician Xu has prescribed a warm palace recipe, which is a gentle nourishment. You will hand it over to the kitchen later on, and every second wife will present it once a month, starting from June." Wang Rong told Palace Manager Cui. She then said to the Imperial Lower Consort Lan, "You also need to ask about it from time to time, to ensure that Shang Yu will not lie to you midway."
"It's my concubine province." The Imperial Lower Consort Lan said, "Do you want to personally go to the dining room to ask about it?"
"No need." Wang Rong and Imperial Lower Consort Lan acted as if they were facing a great enemy and said, "Supervisor Shang Yu wants to play some tricks, even if you go, you won't be able to guarantee anything. Furthermore, if you go personally, you will be lowering your status. As long as you send someone to Shang Yu to check on them from time to time, and let them know that you are paying attention to them, even if it's just for show, they will still restrain themselves a little. "
The Imperial Lower Consort Lan nodded.
After they finished dealing with the palace affairs in the morning, Wang Rong returned to the inner hall to rest for a bit. Wuyou brought some tea over, "Empress, Beauty Wang is outside the hall to seek an audience."
Wang Rong was a little puzzled as to why she had come at this time, but still said, "Let her in."
"Actually, the Beauty Wang has been here for a while. When she heard that the Empress was handling the palace affairs, she stopped us from spreading the news. She was just waiting for us in the side chamber." Fleur said.
"After the Empress has gotten pregnant, I am very happy for the Empress. I know that the Empress is not lacking in anything, so I personally made a few pieces of Little Prince's clothes to give to her. I hope the Empress will not mind." After Wang Zhixi explained her purpose for coming here, she became a little nervous.
Wang Rong looked at the seat, "You don't have to be so nervous. When it's just you and me, we can still call each other sisters. You are my sister, and it's impossible to wipe you out."
"Empress, concubine, I am extremely ashamed." Wang Zhixi said, "On that day, when I was reprimanded by His Majesty, I was in a very bad mood. Suddenly, I heard from my sister's side that my sister was able to go straight to the saint's ears.
"Let's not talk about the past anymore." Wang Ronghe said, "I have taught you a lesson, it has already become a foregone conclusion."
"Elder sister." Wang Zhixi looked at Wang Rong He with tears in her eyes, "Big Sis is still as forgiving as ever, but I only realized it now when I've reached such a stage."
"Sister, you helped me a lot, but I was willing to give up my good fortune to end up like this." Wang Zhixi said, "Since there are no seats, and since there is no love from the Emperor, I will muddle along in this palace."
"I don't have any other requests now, I only hope that after Little Prince is born, elder sister can grant me permission to visit you a few more times. I am also Little Prince's aunt, look at Little Prince, and just think that I have a child myself. " Wang Zhixi's words were extremely pitiful.
Wang Rong didn't try to persuade you that you are still young and that you will have children. Perhaps others would think that if Wang Rong was not able to give birth to him, then Wang Zhixi's children would be the best. With the same blood relation, if a prince who was born in the past could become the next king, then the Duke Yongnian Palace would have a hundred years of wealth.
But Wang Rong didn't like Wang Zhixi, so even though she was showing her weakness, Wang Rong He knew the reason why Wang Zhixi was here, she wanted Wang Rong to help her win her favor.
If Wang Zhixi gave birth to the crown prince, she and Wang Zhixi would be like the Empress Dowager Chen and the Empress Dowager Li right now, with the two palaces standing side by side.
The knot in Wang Zhixi's heart towards her had already been etched into her bloodline, so she always wanted to be stronger than him, as long as there was a chance.
Wang Rong He could even say one sentence. He had a reverence of the heavens, a reverence of the earth, a behavior that of a man, and a will that of a man. "She did not want to be the first to strike, but she did.
"Your Majesty has arrived."
Wang Zhixi stood up, feeling helpless, "Big sister, I'm leaving for a while."
"I'll pay my respects to His Majesty before leaving." When Zhu Yijun entered the hall, he did not notice Wang Zhixi at all. He only held onto her hand to prevent her from bowing halfway, then brought her to sit on the warm brick bed. "What are you eating today?"
"Is His Majesty hungry?" Wang Ronghe said, "Yan Xi, take someone to dinner."
"Yes." Gu Yanxi nodded his head and said, "Then, do you want to set up Beauty Wang's table as well?"
It was only then that Zhu Yijun noticed that the Beauty Wang was present and couldn't help but frown. He said in a bad tone, "Didn't I tell the harem not to disturb the Empress's womb?
Wang Zhixi immediately knelt down, "This humble one doesn't dare."
Wang Rong patted Zhu Yijun's hands and said gently, "She made some of Little Prince's clothes himself, and gave them to you. "He isn't planning to stay for long either. He's about to leave."
"Little Prince's clothes are made by someone else, don't trouble yourself too much in the future." Zhu Yijun said, "Still not leaving?"
She shared a room with her elder sister, but she still believed that she was far more beautiful than her elder sister. However, when the emperor entered the palace, he did not even spare her a glance as he was completely focused on his elder sister.
Could it be that men who loved beauties were unable to do so even at the emperor's place?
What would she do after that?
If she thought that the beauty she relied on was useless, would she live her life like this in this harem? He would always be under his eldest sister, living off her.
His mother was outside. She should be disappointed in him, but she should also be worried.
"Beauty, please wait a moment." Wuyou caught up with him, holding the flower drawer in his hand. "This is the Empress's jewel that she never wore. The Empress said that I should give it to her as a gift, to thank her for making the clothes for Little Prince."
Wang Zhixi was unwilling to accept it, "Making a few sets of clothes is not a problem, and with the Empress returning the gesture with such dignity, it makes me feel uneasy."
"The Empress has a lot of jewellery that has never been on her body before, so putting it there would be a waste. If you don't live a new life, you have to send it to be melted and redone. Beauty, don't push it away." Wuyou said.
Wang Zhixi was still not willing, she immediately stuffed the flower drawer into the palace maid's hands, "Beauty, take care, I still need to go back and serve the Empress, I won't send you off." Wuyou saluted and turned to leave.
Wang Zhixi felt that she just needed to get some local property before she could go to her wealthy relatives to have some fun. She covered her face with her sleeves and felt extremely ashamed and angry.
