The Empress always refuses to make progress. Chapter 0001: The Harem is a Battlefield
"You should learn from others. Last month Li Baolin met the Emperor in the garden, and now he is very favored. He has served three times this month.
。"Zi Rui mumbled to herself." 。"What am I learning? Dancing in the garden on such a hot day? I'm afraid of heatstroke!"
。""Then you should learn from Lu Bao Lin, who made embroidery and gave it to the Empress. The Empress also arranged for him to attend her several times."
。"You don't know how hard it is to embroider, do you? It's so tiring, I'm going blind from all the stitching." 。"Then you learn from Ning Cairen, she writes beautifully…"
"Alright, alright, it's almost time, hurry up and comb my hair..."
。"Shen Chulü sighed: “How do you manage to repeat the same thing every day without getting tired? I haven't treated you poorly, have I? You're not a treasure just because I serve you. What are you so worried about?”“But it's been over a year since you entered the palace! You were already a treasure when you came in, but…” 。"Now we're all catching up, aren't we?" Zi Rui said, but her hands moved even faster. 。"There are so many people in the emperor's harem, should I go past all of them? I entered the palace as an eighth-rank official, why am I in a hurry?" "That's not because of my family!" Zi Rui got anxious. 。
Shen Chuyu lightly smiled: “You still remember this, you are a rather composed young man. After more than a year in the palace, how come you're getting impatient?”
。I was stronger than all of you even at the beginning of my entry into the palace, and I will not be inferior in the future. 。"What's the rush?" Shen Chuilu, seeing her makeup was done, put on a pair of earrings: "Let's go, it's important to greet the Empress Dowager." 。Because she lived far away and couldn't take a carriage, Shen Chuliu could only walk with her maid Zi Rui. 。On the way out, I ran into Yao Baolin. She is from the inner court and is considered the oldest among the current palace consorts. She's two years older than the emperor, and is already 26 this year.
。Although twenty-six doesn't seem like a bad age, in the imperial court, without favor, no offspring, and no support from one's family, this is practically setting oneself up for a lifetime of hardship. 。After paying respects to each other, the two of them went together toward the Empress's Palace. 。The Zao Palace is located on the central axis of the Imperial Palace, but their residence, Cuoyunxuan, is in the southeast corner of the inner court. Going to pay respects truly isn't convenient. 。"Sister, did you hear? There was quite a commotion last night."
。"Yao Baolin laughed", 。"What's the matter? I slept soundly last night and didn't hear anything."
。Shen Chulyu was curious. 。Yesterday, the emperor did not stay overnight at Li Jieyu's Baige, did he? In the middle of the night, it was said that Cao Ren, the imperial physician, had come to attend to him because he was suffering from abdominal pain and dizziness. 。Upon checking, it turned out she was pregnant. In the middle of the night, she went to Emperor’s Qiushui Pavilion. 。This made Li Jieyu furious. 。Look here, this morning's greetings already have a play to watch. 。"Shen Chuilv smiled: “That’s quite a show, isn’t it? The people of Cao must be fortunate.” 。That's not true, but Li Jieyu and Cao Ren have become enemies. 。Yao Bao-lin smiled. 。Shen Chuliu didn't speak, just nodded. 。Not really, even though pregnancy is a big deal, getting robbed in this imperial harem is also a big deal. 。A concubine of the first rank is fourth rank, and a commoner is fifth rank, both can live alone in a pavilion. 。However, humans are after all inferior. Even if they were pregnant, it wouldn't be reasonable for them to wake up the Emperor in the middle of the night. This must be the deliberate act of a favored concubine seeking attention. 。However, the Emperor has many children in his harem. Now that Cao has a child, as long as she can give birth, she can be promoted to Jieyu. And with children, it's not too miserable. 。Only Li Jieyu was favored, Cao people served the emperor less. 。"Come to think of it, Empress Yi has always been favored, but she hasn't become pregnant yet." 。"Yao Bao Lin whispered" 。Shen Chuilu nodded, but of course, Yi Fei was the emperor's most favored concubine.
。Although it was only the rank of a Second Rank concubine, after he ascended to the throne, < >she was immediately given < >. 。When they arrived at the Algae Palace, it wasn't early, nor was it late. There were still some people who hadn't come yet. 。We're just Bao Lin, and we don't have much to offer. Besides, today's main attraction isn't us, so everyone was just being polite with their greetings. We returned the courtesies as expected and that's about it. 。Only when He Xiuying and Song Xiurong, who were on duty as maids-in-waiting, arrived did things become lively. 。He Xiuyi talked a lot, and Shen Chuilu always suspected that it was because she talked too much that the Emperor had become less fond of her.
。Otherwise, she at least gave birth to a eldest princess who is well. Yet, she is merely one of the nine concubines. 。not even the chief consort 。Well, I'm not late today am I? 。said with a smile 。Then all the people bowed down to him in greeting. 。"Li Jieyu, did you sleep well last night?" He Xiuyi sat down and asked the day's protagonist. 。This is really poking the hornet's nest, nobody was directly provoked, they just straight up asked. 。
However, no one who arrived just now had a higher status than Lady Li Jieyu, and they dared not speak directly to her.
。"Thank you, Lady Xiu Yi, for your concern. I am well." 。<"Lady Li looked down upon He Xiu Yi">。Speaking of which, the three most favored in the harem right now are undoubtedly Yi Fei. However, she is the only one with a title of rank two, a position that is unique among the concubines. 。Next is Li Jieyu, and then Ning Cairen. 。Compared to He Xiu'yi, who never boarded the emperor's carriage for thousands of years, Li Jieyu was not inferior at all. 。"Imperial Noble Consort Shu has arrived" 。Someone said something. 。Everyone hurriedly rose to greet him.
。Feng Shufei was the highest-ranking concubine in the imperial harem, second only to the empress. She held the rank of a first-rank noblewoman.
。Of the four virtues, only this one remains today. 。Not being too different, with the Emperor's only son, the second prince, it was naturally impossible for him to not have a high position. 。As for pampering, there's no need to mention He Xiu Yi's beauty.
。Then, Yi Fei arrived. 。Yi Fei's features were naturally exquisite, with autumn water eyes and willow leaf brows.
。Graceful as a willow in the wind, with skin as white and smooth as jade. 。both elegant and charming 。Especially playing the piano is excellent, and he also has a pleasant name, making him quite popular. 。Well, to be honest, Shen Chuilu burst out laughing the first time he heard it, but the emperor thought it sounded nice. 。Then he recited the verse "South Wind knows my intentions, blow dreams to the Western Zhou," and said that the South Wind understood his heart, so he bestowed upon it the title: Yi. 。Shen Chulu had always thought, since their hearts were in tune, why not communicate? Ahem, though, to say it out loud, this was indeed someone with an outstanding appearance and talent. 。The only drawback is that his family background is not good, otherwise, he would probably be one of the four concubines ranked as first-class. 。Everyone paid respects to Yi Fei, and Yi Fei also paid respects to Feng Shu Fei. 。The Empress also came out, and everyone bowed to greet the Empress again.
。"All, have a seat. Today is not the fifteenth day of the lunar month, so there's no need to go to the Empress Dowager's palace. Just sit here in my palace."
。Cao was unwell last night and took a leave of absence. 。The Empress said 。Everyone looked at each other in surprise, well, this other person didn't come 。"Speaking of it, a pregnant woman is considered good fortune. But to make such a commotion in the middle of the night shows a lack of manners." 。"He Xiuyi said" 。Just now I was making jokes about Li Jieyu, and now I'm starting to talk about Cao people again. This is why no one wants to associate with me.
。No one likes people who are two-faced and talkative.
。As usual, let me say a few words. First, I'd like to see if anyone here is interested in a one-on-one chat.
。Next, I 。Since this is a fictional scenario, please don't compare it to history.
。Some of the positions in the harem were taken from the Sui and Tang dynasties, some were changed. 。>Does anyone here still have the first book? Raise your hand if you do! }(Editor in charge：precious based on the novel)
