The system was right. None of the concubines in the room liked her.
To say that they don't like her is an understatement. To be precise, they all hate her.
One reason is her background. All the concubines in the harem came from aristocratic families.
They felt that Su Wanti was just a little palace maid and was not worthy of being called sisters or being on equal terms with them.
The second reason was that the emperor really doted on her and was willing to skip the morning court for three days for her, which was something no other concubine could do.
In the past few days, they have been discussing and mocking her behind her back, saying that she is a slave and does not know the big picture, and that she looks like a slut and seduces her master.
But in fact, they all secretly hated in their hearts that it was not themselves who became the concubine.
Su Wanti was the last to arrive. Her beautiful and charming eyes swept across the hall, taking in the expressions of all the concubines.
The imperial concubine's face turned ashen, and she stared at her like a black-eyed chicken, as if she wanted to come up and peck her to death.
Below the Imperial Concubine is the Rong Concubine, who has a cold temperament, holds her head high proudly, and looks down on people with disdain.
Then there was Concubine Chun. She was pretty and pure, and looked as weak as a willow branch in the wind, which made her lovable. However, her clear big eyes clearly showed three words: "contempt".
The others were all talented ladies and maids. Their faces also looked unhappy, and their disgust was evident in their expressions, but Su Wanti didn't care.
In the whole room, only the queen looked better.
She sat in the upper seat with dignity and elegance, her beautiful eyes curved, a generous and decent smile on her lips, and introduced Su Wanti to everyone.
"This is Concubine Wan. Even if you haven't seen her, you must have heard of her. We are all sisters from now on, so we should get along well."
She glanced at the imperial concubine and said gently:
"Noble Concubine, I heard that there was some misunderstanding between you and Sister Wan Fei a few days ago. You said that she stole your jade bracelet. Don't say such things again in the future. Don't hurt Sister Wan Fei's reputation. Do you understand?"
The queen seemed to be defending Su Wanti, but in fact she was indiscriminately putting the blame of stealing on her.
The others naturally heard the hidden meaning in the queen's words. They all covered their lips and chuckled, and looked at Su Wanti with even more disdain.
Su Wanti had dressed up carefully before coming, and she was naturally beautiful and charming.
She smiled softly, her pair of bright eyes shone with indescribable charm and elegance.
The slender hand gently raised up, seemingly accidentally brushing the bright and dazzling pearl beside the ear.
Her voice was incredibly charming, and even though all the people present were women, they were all moved to blush and their hearts beat faster by her.
"Reporting to the Empress, His Majesty has cleared my name, and the Imperial Concubine knows the full extent of this matter. Sister Imperial Concubine, what do you think?"
Her eyes moved and she continued:
"Sister Imperial Concubine, if you need a jade bracelet, ask me for it. Last time, His Majesty rewarded me with a hundred jade bracelets. Don't give them to a palace maid and then ask for them back. That's too stingy."
Today, she is dressed in gorgeous clothes and adorned with pearls. She is dazzling and graceful like a fairy in the clouds. She is even more beautiful than the imperial concubine who always prides herself on being the most beautiful woman in the harem.
The imperial concubine had a grudge against her to begin with, and when she saw that she was favored and even questioned her about yin and yang in a coquettish manner, she was so angry that she ground her teeth and the gloominess on her face became even heavier.
She snorted coldly, glanced at Su Wanti, turned away and said nothing.
Seeing her furious look, Su Wanti smiled again, and this smile was as bright as a hundred flowers blooming.
"hiss--"
The other concubines gasped at her stunning beauty and charming manners, and dared not imagine how charming, affectionate, and enchanting she was in front of the emperor.
No wonder the emperor stayed with her for three days and three nights—
People's hearts are in turmoil and everyone has their own thoughts.
The Queen's expression did not change. She just smiled dignifiedly and said slowly:
"Alright, let's not talk about the past anymore. Sisters, let's get along well from now on. Concubine Wan, you were born a palace maid and did well as a servant, but now you are Concubine Wan, a proper mistress. You should learn the palace rules and know what you should and shouldn't do as a concubine in the harem."
"I have already asked the Empress Dowager for permission. Tomorrow, the Imperial Concubine will teach you the palace rules, and she has agreed."
"Starting tomorrow, you will go to the Imperial Concubine's Palace and learn well. In the future, your words and actions must not lose the demeanor of a concubine, and you must not break the palace rules. Do you understand?"
Su Wanti's eyes turned, and she asked the imperial concubine to teach her the palace rules. The queen's trick was brilliant!
Let the two concubines who have a grudge against each other fight to the death. No matter who wins or loses, it will be beneficial to her.
And from beginning to end, her hands were clean.
In this harem, the situation is ever-changing and undercurrents are surging. If she wants to survive well, she cannot hide.
Fortunately, Leng Hong dotes on her now, so she has someone to rely on. So let’s face it head-on!
"Okay, everything will be arranged by the Queen."
Su Wanti curled her red lips and stared at the black-eyed concubine with her bright eyes.
The imperial concubine had originally been happy to accept this, but now that she saw Su Wanti acting as if nothing had happened, and even with a slightly provocative look on her face, she became uneasy for some reason.
He used to be the most arrogant and domineering person, but now he dared not look directly into the eyes of this newly favored concubine.
He is actually a cowardly paper tiger, Su Wanti chuckled.
At this time, Hai'e was beside her and whispered, "Empress Wan, we still have to go and pay our respects to the Empress Dowager."
Su Wanti is a newly appointed concubine. After being appointed, in addition to paying her respects to the queen on a daily basis, she should also pay a visit to the empress dowager.
Let the Queen Mother meet her new person.
Upon hearing this, Su Wanti smiled and said goodbye to the queen with full etiquette.
