Chapter 221 Love Me a Little More
After hearing this imperial edict, Pei Tingyue was stunned for a long time.
The whole person was in shock.
The position of imperial concubine!
The title is Chen!
Assist in managing the power of the six palaces!
This, this, this…
Any one of them alone is enough to change the harem.
Let’s talk about the position of imperial concubine first.
This position is no longer achieved simply by favor, but is closely related to the previous dynasty. Since the founding of the Daqi Dynasty, all those who have become imperial concubines have been from prominent families.
Even the late emperor's Concubine Li, not only was favored, but also had an excellent family background. In this dynasty, only a woman from the Song family, one of the four surnames, became a concubine.
Although the Pei family has now established itself in Kyoto, their roots are still shallow and they are not a prominent family at all.
Even though she had thought about becoming a noble concubine yesterday, she knew it wouldn't happen overnight, at least not within the next few years. Only when the Pei family was fully established would she have a chance to make further progress.
However, she did not expect that the emperor would fulfill her wish today, promote her and make her a concubine second only to the emperor.
Pei Tingyue knew that the emperor liked her very much and he doted on her even more this year.
Now she was sure that the emperor loved her.
And I love her very much.
Otherwise, as a rational monarch, he would not have ignored the previous dynasty and issued the imperial decree to promote the concubine.
Let’s talk about the account ban.
Chen.
It cannot be used by anyone other than the emperor.
Extremely noble.
He gave it to me like this, this blatant love was undisguised.
When she first arrived, Pei Tingyue was impressed and marveled at the emperor's supreme favor for Concubine Liang.
But now she feels that even that "false" favor is not as good as the one the emperor loves her now.
Also, the power to assist in managing the six palaces.
She was also given real power.
Now, she can truly be described as "extremely favored" or "the most favored among the six palaces."
Pei Tingyue held the imperial edict in her hands, and ripples appeared in her heart.
Even now, she still has a feeling of unreality, as if she is walking on soft clouds with her feet floating lightly.
After she received the imperial edict, Liang Yao took the lead in kneeling, and the palace maids followed suit.
"This servant/servant congratulates the Imperial Concubine."
Pei Tingyue took a deep breath and said with a smile: "There are rewards for everyone!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."
The faces of the palace maids were all filled with joy.
Even Liang Yao is the same.
The days are getting better and better!
Yesterday, the Imperial Concubine received a reward on her birthday, and another reward on New Year's Eve. Now, the Imperial Concubine has been promoted and received another reward. These three rewards together are almost as much as the monthly salary for the whole year. Anyone would be motivated!
After thanking him, Liang Yao stood up and explained, "Noble Concubine, the Emperor has instructed that the date of the conferment will remain unchanged. It will be on the tenth day of the first lunar month. The Emperor has also designated Prince Xuan as your conferment envoy."
Pei Tingyue felt emotional.
Last time, King Xuan didn't have the time to appoint her as a Zhaoyi, but now he appointed her as a Guifei.
The emperor finally gave her this honor.

Xie Chen returned to Chengming Palace at noon.
This time was usually Pei Tingyue's nap time, so when he came in, he didn't look for her, but asked someone to change him into casual clothes.
As soon as he took off his dragon robe, a figure rushed over.
Xie Chen was startled and quickly caught the person and hung him around his waist, supporting the woman's hips with his big hands.
Holding him like this, Pei Tingyue was taller than him. She held his handsome face and kissed him without hesitation.
"Baji."
After kissing him once, she was not satisfied and leaned down to kiss him again.
She kissed him dozens of times, until the lip balm on her lips was smudged, and then she stopped.
Seeing her high spirits, Xie Chen chuckled and said, "In the past, she would say her lips hurt after a few kisses, but now that Tingyue has been named a noble concubine, she is quite enthusiastic."
Pei Tingyue smiled and kissed him again: "I am so happy."
Her smile was so brilliant that Xie Chen couldn't help but be infected, a gentle smile appeared on his face. He pinched the girl's face and asked, "So happy?"
Pei Tingyue nodded heavily: "Your Majesty has bestowed upon me so many rewards, I am naturally happy!"
Xie Chen raised an eyebrow and said, "Then would you like Tingyue to return some of it?"
Pei Tingyue thought he was asking for that thing, her cheeks suddenly flushed, and she lowered her voice, "Then wait until tonight."
"Little pervert." Xie Chen smiled, "That's not what I'm talking about."
Pei Tingyue blinked her beautiful eyes and asked, "Then what does the emperor want from me?"
Xie Chen kissed her dark, watery eyes and sighed, "I wish Tingyue would like me a little more."
A very common love words.
Pei Tingyue couldn't calm down for a long time.
She tried her best to suppress the emotions that surged up in her, curled her fingers, and finally said solemnly, "Okay."
Since this man has given her all his heart, she might as well return the favor for now.
Just a little, and temporarily.
If he is not good, then she will take it back.
Hearing this, Xie Chen teased her: "I thought my place in Tingyue's heart was already full, but it turns out it's not full, there's still room for one more."
Pei Tingyue was dissatisfied and pinched his chest, "You still say that I am greedy, but the greediest one is the emperor!"
Xie Chen kissed her snow-white wrist and sighed, "This is the only one I care about the most, so I am greedy."
Pei Tingyue intimately rested her forehead against his and whispered, "Alright, alright, then I'll like the Emperor a little more and make it full!"
Xie Chen kissed her passionately.
Pei Tingyue kissed him back.
Taking advantage of the gap between them, she said vaguely, "Just kiss for a while, I'm a little sleepy."
Xie Chen touched her rosy lips and softly said, "Spoiled."
Pei Tingyue hummed and said, "It's all because of the emperor's indulgence. The emperor wants to pamper him."
Xie Chen laughed, kissed her back twice, and then carried her to the inner bedroom to rest.

Within two hours, everyone in the harem knew that the emperor had promoted Concubine De to Concubine Chen, granted her the power to assist in managing the six palaces, and allowed her to live in Chengning Palace.
This great grace is both amazing and enviable.
If you count carefully, this Noble Concubine Chen has been in the palace for only three years. She was not favored when she first entered the palace. She started to be favored in the spring of the fourth year of Xining. Now, in just two years, she has been promoted from the seventh rank Baolin to the first rank Noble Concubine. This speed of promotion is astonishing.
Moreover, she has a prince. With the emperor's favor, even if this fourth prince cannot become the crown prince in the future, he will still be a wealthy prince.
With favor, power and children, Concubine Chen is definitely the winner. Who can not envy her?
It would be fine if concubines who were not favored and had no children envied her status, but it was not that simple for the high-ranking concubines who had children.
Originally, they were only one rank lower than Concubine Chen, and the princes under their rank were not much less noble.
Now that Concubine Chen has dumped so many of them, the Fourth Prince has become the prince with the best family background because of his mother's status.
How can they be calm?
Several people reacted differently.
Wen Zhaoyuan didn't react much after hearing this, and even asked someone to prepare a gift.
Xie Xiuyi had a gloomy face and didn't speak for a long time.
Li Xiuyuan lost her composure and smashed the teacup in her hand. She drove away all the palace servants and taught the Third Prince to stand alone.
"Hold on to the couch, put some strength on your feet,..., why are you so clumsy!"
Yu Shi lost his balance and fell, then burst into tears.
Li Xiuyuan turned away angrily and ignored him. After hearing a burst of crying, she hugged Yu Shi in her arms with tears in her eyes and said in a sobbing voice, "What should we do? What should we do?"
