Chapter 166 Establishing Status



Liang Jiugong first gave Wanwan a bow, saying, "Your Majesty, the Emperor has sent me to deliver a decree."

Wanwan looked at the imperial edict in Liang Jiugong's hand, nodded, and directly asked Liang Jiugong to convey the edict, "Thank you for your trouble, Eunuch."

Liang Jiugong, "By the Mandate of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: …………………… Jin"

Consort Tong was Consort Jin.

Consort Hui was later renamed Consort Hui.

Consort Rong was later promoted to Imperial Concubine Rong.

Consort Yi was promoted to Imperial Concubine Yi.

Consort Duan was originally named Consort Duan.

Noble Lady Jing is Consort Jing.

Consort Zhaojia was originally Consort Bu.

Wei Changzai was a noble person.

………………

When Liang Jiugong finished reading, he said, "Your Majesties, please accept the decree."

The concubines said, "Your Majesty, we thank you. Long live the Emperor!"

When Liang Jiugong read out names, he couldn't hide the smile on his face when he called out one name, and the corners of his mouth were curved.

This time, the imperial harem was granted a grand conferment of titles, and almost everyone was promoted by one rank. Even those who weren't promoted were still bestowed with titles or similar honors.

Consort An and Consort Xi remained unmoved from the ranks of concubines, and they didn't care about the other concubines either.

Liang Jiugong said, "Your Majesty, then this servant will take his leave now."

Wanwan said, "I would like to trouble Eunuch Liang to listen to the wind and offer his appreciation."

"Please don't refuse, Father-in-law. Consider this a gift from me on behalf of all the concubines in the harem."

Liang Jiugong said, "That's great! This servant can also share in the joy of the ladies and concubines in the harem."

Liang Jiugong put the purse into his pocket and left.

After they left, they left behind a group of people with excited hearts and trembling hands.

Seeing the happy expressions on their faces, Wanwan said first, "Please sit down. Let me tell you about this matter."

The concubines all said "Yes" and sat down in their respective chairs.

Wanwan watched them sit down and then said, "As you all know, this grand conferment of titles upon the six palaces was proposed by me. Since the last grand conferment of titles upon the six palaces by the Emperor, only Consort Yi has been promoted to the rank of Consort, while the others have not been promoted."

Wanwan paused to catch her breath before continuing, "So, taking advantage of this victory in the previous war, I would like to ask the Emperor to promote your ranks. You have been in the palace for quite some time, especially the first batch who served the Emperor. Some of you already have children, and you have enough seniority. Therefore, I thought that, in order to share in the joy of the victory in the previous war, the harem should also be promoted in rank."

Wanwan: "This list was personally drafted by me, and the Emperor did not object. I also want to tell you that I have never favored anyone."

Whether you are promoted or not is determined by yourselves, including your seniority, offspring, and whether your family has made contributions. So those who are not promoted should not blame me.

I have promoted almost all of you below the rank of Consort, especially the Attendant-in-Waiting. You see the Emperor less often, and although your allowances haven't been reduced, your lives must be quite difficult. This time, taking advantage of the grand conferment of titles upon the six palaces, it's good to promote your ranks.

Wanwan said, "Although I drafted the list for this grand conferment of titles upon the six palaces, the final decision rests with the Emperor."

Wanwan: "Do you understand?"

The concubines replied, "Your Majesty, we understand. Thank you, Imperial Noble Consort."

The other concubines were very satisfied with this grand promotion of the six palaces, and almost all of them were promoted one rank.

They also knew that this was because the Imperial Noble Consort was praising them, or perhaps she was doing them a favor.

Regardless of anything else, the Imperial Noble Consort has always been fair in dealing with the concubines in the harem, and after this grand conferment of titles upon the six palaces, she has once again impressed the hearts of all the concubines in the harem.

Of all those who were dissatisfied with this grand conferment of titles upon six officials, only Consort Xi was unhappy. As for Consort An, she was a clever woman who knew that Emperor Kangxi didn't particularly like her father, so she would remain a consort for life, and perhaps even be buried as a concubine when she died.

Wanwan said, "It's good that you understand."

My darlings, let's get this love going!

(?????)?? Love you, muah!
