Chapter 156 List



After finishing her meal, Wanwan went to the study first, thinking about finalizing the list that she hadn't completed yesterday.

Listening to the rain and listening to the wind, one was grinding ink, and the other was helping to lay out the paper.

The paper contained the same information as the first time the imperial harem was officially established, listing the ranks of concubines, from Imperial Noble Consort to Palace Ladies.

Continuing from yesterday, Wanwan will continue writing.

There are already two imperial concubines, Consort Hui and Consort Rong.

Wanwan is hesitating whether or not to add Consort Yi.

After thinking about it, I decided to add it. Besides the fact that the Empress Dowager adopted Yiping's fifth son, Yiping also gave birth to another son in the past two years, the ninth son.

She had two sons, one of whom was adopted by the Empress Dowager, and Consort Yi was also favored by Emperor Kangxi.

Thinking this way, they added Consort Yi after Consort Rong.

As for the rank of concubine, Consort An was still the highest. Although Consort An's father was the son-in-law of the emperor, Emperor Kangxi still looked down on him, since he was not a surrendered soldier but a rebel.

Although the rebels at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty were rebels against the Ming Dynasty, they were still traitors. How could Emperor Kangxi, as an emperor, like such people?

So even though during the first major conferment of titles upon the imperial harem, his daughter was granted the rank of Consort, and was the highest-ranking Consort, Consort An could only remain a Consort for the rest of her life. Perhaps she would receive posthumous honors.

Currently, there are only two people in the rank of Consort: Consort An and Consort Xi. Therefore, when the harem is officially expanded this time, several more people will likely be added to the ranks of Consort.

After thinking for a moment, Wanwan promoted Consort Dong, who had given birth to two daughters of Emperor Kangxi, although both of whom died young, to the rank of concubine because of her decent family background.

Thinking about it, Wanwan wrote "Dongjia Shi" after Xi Pin.

Among the noble ladies, Zhang was also of the appropriate rank. She also gave birth to a daughter for Emperor Kangxi, but unfortunately, she could not keep the baby and was eventually disliked by him.

However, her family background was decent, and she had served Emperor Kangxi for a long time, so she could be promoted to the rank of concubine.

Thinking this, he wrote Zhang's name after Dong Jia's.

There was also a Lady Zhaojia who was barely qualified to be a concubine. Thinking this, I continued to write the three characters "Lady Zhaojia" after Lady Zhang (in history, she seems to be Lady Bu, but the author searched on Baidu and could not find this person).

As for the noblemen, they were those who had served Kangxi for a long time but were not favored by him.

A higher rank would probably mean a better life, since Emperor Kangxi was known for his fickle nature.

There was another person, the infamous "lowly woman" from the Imperial Laundry, whose beauty was said to have brought ruin to the country.

The author merely quoted a saying by Emperor Kangxi and had no intention of insulting any woman. Please be gentle with your criticism.

At this time, Wei was still a low-ranking concubine. Thinking this, Wanwan wrote Wei after the title of "Noble Lady".

Moreover, at this time, Lady Wei had already given birth to the Eighth Prince. Although Emperor Kangxi did not initially intend for Lady Wei to have children, Lady Wei was just a slave in the Imperial Household Department, so how could she have such a high standard?

If she were to remain a concubine for a few years, and given that her beauty was among the best in the harem, and if she were to develop feelings for Emperor Kangxi, he would naturally allow her to have children.

It's a pity that she was focused on securing her position in the harem. She knew that in the harem, if she didn't have children, no matter how beautiful she was, she would still be disliked by Emperor Kangxi after a few years.

So he poured out the contraceptive soup that Emperor Kangxi had given him, and sometimes he would vomit it up after drinking it.

While scrolling through videos today, I saw two villages in Jishishan and Qinghai again. Sigh, Jishishan and Qinghai are next door.

Sigh, I hope everyone stays safe and sound.

Disaster stays away from everyone.
