Chapter 153 Harem Thoughts



Wanwan didn't care what the concubines thought after leaving Jingren Palace. Anyway, she had already given them a heads-up, which was also a way of indirectly currying favor with them.

Wanwan said, "Listen to the rain, go to the study. I need to think carefully about this grand investiture of the concubines in the harem."

Tingyu immediately reached out and helped Wanwan to the study.

Not to mention that when Wanwan looked at the names of these concubines in the study, she felt that it was better to be in a higher position, as she could easily decide their rank.

No wonder the concubines always resorted to any means to climb the social ladder.

The others didn't know what Wanwan was thinking for the time being, but they were far from at peace once they left.

Especially after this victory in the war, since there were brothers in the previous dynasty who contributed to the victory, they always felt that they had a share of the credit.

Some people thought they had a high chance of being promoted, while others thought about being promoted even though their families hadn't contributed to the previous dynasty's military.

Looking at the name written on the paper, Wanwan said to Tingyu, "After today, Jingren Palace will be closed to guests to prevent them from disturbing me."

"Your Majesty is right," said Tingyu. "After today, I'm afraid most people will come to visit with gifts."

Wanwan said, "You know that's good. You can't accept gifts from those people."

Listening to the rain, "This servant understands."

Yanxi Palace

After arriving at Yanxi Palace, Consort Hui sat down and thought, "In this war, none of the Nara clan's brothers on the front lines have made any contributions. To be precise, the Nara clan did not participate in this war at all."

'Therefore, it is highly likely that if the promotion to a higher rank in the imperial harem was solely due to the previous dynasty's victory in war, she would not have been eligible.'

'But as the birth mother of the eldest prince, my rank is too low, which is not good. Besides, Kangxi still cares about his eldest brother. He might promote me in rank because of the eldest prince and his cousin. It seems that I should ask my cousin to do some work in the court.'

Thinking this, Consort Hui took out a pen and paper and wrote a letter, handing it to the maid beside her. "Send this letter to my cousin's residence. He knows what to do."

Moreover, they also wanted to visit the Imperial Noble Consort at Jingren Palace. Although they were unhappy that the Imperial Noble Consort monopolized Kangxi's favor, they couldn't really say anything about her character.

It wouldn't be bad to try it out first.

Zhongcui Palace

Consort Rong was also wondering if she would be eligible for a promotion this time.

The war went smoothly, mostly thanks to the brothers of the Niohuru family who made the most of the contributions; other families had very few.

If it were just based on her family brothers, she might not have a share. However, she bore six sons and one daughter for Kangxi, and she and Consort Hui were among the first to serve Kangxi. Considering this, it's not impossible that she might get a share.

Consort Rong thought for a moment and decided that she should first go to Jingren Palace to sound out the Imperial Noble Consort's opinion, and then bring some valuable gifts along the way.

In her view, the Imperial Noble Consort was fair and just in her dealings with people, and since she had given birth to six sons and one daughter for Emperor Kangxi, she might be able to get the Imperial Noble Consort to add her name to the list of those to be promoted.

Other palace staff shared this idea, because it was evident from the Imperial Noble Consort's painting that the Emperor had entrusted this matter entirely to her.

As long as the list is suitable and the ranks are appropriate, Kangxi will make the final decision. Therefore, everyone wants to go to Jingren Palace.

However, everyone still had some sense of propriety, or rather, they were all quite reserved, and did not go directly to Jingren Palace that day.

Instead, he went to pay his respects to Wanwan again the next day, hoping to use the opportunity to sound out her.

Keep it up! Keep writing!

I don't know if there will be any aftershocks. I slept well last night.

I hope everyone stays safe and sound.

Disaster stays away from everyone
