Chapter 164 is settled



Wanwan said, "There are also some palace women and the like. This time, they can take advantage of the victory of the previous dynasty and enjoy the joy with their sisters in the harem. I can't leave them out."

Wanwan: "This is the initial set of titles I've drafted. Do you think there's anything I need to change?"

Kangxi said, "There's nothing left to change; you've thought of everything."

Emperor Kangxi took Wanwan's hand and made her sit on his lap, saying, "Indeed, what more could a husband ask for than such a wife?"

Emperor Kangxi said, "You have done me a great favor. Otherwise, I would have had to spend time and brainpower to figure out who should be promoted and who shouldn't. With your help, I feel much more at ease."

Wanwan said, "It is my duty to share Xuan Ye's burdens."

Emperor Kangxi said, "This position is very reasonable, and I can't find any fault with it. However, let's keep Lady Wei in the position of Consort, as she is a restless person."

Wanwan said, "But no matter what, she gave birth to the Eighth Prince. Others who gave birth to him either became concubines or consorts."

Wanwan said, "If she doesn't advance in rank, I'm afraid the people in the harem will look down on her. It doesn't matter if she suffers, but no matter what, she gave birth to your child. How can a prince suffer?"

Kangxi thought about it and realized it made sense. If he didn't promote him, they might think he didn't value the Eighth Prince and thus neglect him. In the end, it would be his own child who would suffer.

Emperor Kangxi said, "Your thoughts are very comprehensive, while mine have been inadequate. Since that is the case, let's settle on that title."

Kangxi said, "However, we need to add one more person. The Niohuru family contributed a lot to the victory in this war, and they want to send another woman into the palace."

Wanwan immediately realized that it was time for the Tenth Prince's birth mother, Consort Wenxi, to enter the palace.

Wanwan: "Hmm, what kind of rank does Xuan Ye intend to give to the women of the Niohuru family?"

Kangxi thought about it carefully, his hand stroking Wanwan's waist. "This time, the Niohuru family has made great contributions, and this woman entered the palace in place of Empress Xiaozhao. If her rank is too low, it will discourage the meritorious officials. So I am thinking of giving her the rank of Imperial Concubine."

Wanwan said, "That's fine too."

Wanwan: "By the way, should we give Consort Tong a title or something? This time, with the grand bestowal of titles upon the harem, I am the one who should be given one."

But leaving her alone doesn't seem right either. Won't it make him think you don't care about her anymore?

Wanwan continued, "It won't look good for her then. If the Niohuru family comes in, both of them will be imperial concubines. This time, the imperial concubines are being bestowed titles, but Consort Tong is not among them. It doesn't seem quite right."

This is a question you need to consider yourself. I can't say too much. The Tong family is your maternal family, so it wouldn't be right not to seal it off.

After thinking about it, Kangxi realized that it was indeed the case. This time, he bestowed titles upon the concubines, but Qingqing was already an Imperial Noble Consort, and there was no further title to bestow.

Moreover, Emperor Kangxi did not want to make Wanwan his empress, mainly because he now believed in his own curse of bringing misfortune to his wives and did not want to lose Wanwan.

Now only Consort Tong remains unchanged. Because the Emperor lost both his father and mother at a young age, he is closer to his maternal uncle's family.

Emperor Kangxi said, "Then let's leave Consort Tong with a question mark."

Hearing this, Wanwan felt it was quite normal. She was a Noble Consort, and her family was so powerful; it was indeed difficult to be left out. "So, what kind of title does Xuan Ye intend to give Noble Consort Tong? Will the Imperial Household Department choose it, or will you decide yourself?"

After thinking for a moment, Emperor Kangxi said, "Let's use the character 'Jin'."

Upon hearing this, Wanwan paused subconsciously. Although Jinzi had a beautiful meaning, it was also a homophone for the word "cautious."
