Quick Wear: I was a Favored Concubine in the Qing Dynasty

The next morning, when Yu Sui got up, Kangxi had already been at work for two hours. She got up lazily from the bed, ate the breakfast carefully prepared by the kitchen, and then went to pay her respects.

The time is certainly not wrong. Generally speaking, a concubine would not be required to pay her respects at six in the morning after her first sleepover. Instead, the time would be postponed to the afternoon.

Yu Suisui first went to the Cining Palace to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager, but she had been ill for a long time and had not seen the concubines for a long time. Yu Suisui saluted at the door and then went to the Empress Dowager's palace. The Empress Dowager did not speak Chinese well, so she saw Yu Suisui and said a few words to him and then sent him away.

Finally, there is the Imperial Noble Consort of Chengqian Palace. She is now acting as the Queen. When Yu Sui arrived at Chengqian Palace, she was a little surprised to find that the snacks prepared by the Imperial Noble Consort were all her favorites.

The imperial concubine explained with a smile: "It was the emperor's order. He said you like to eat these and asked me to prepare them." When the emperor likes you, he will remember everything about you and take care of everything.

Yu Suisui showed a shy expression, then sat obediently on the rosewood long-back chair, holding a cup of tea, and listened to the imperial concubine speak.

When the Imperial Concubine saw that Yuan was delicate and beautiful, the smile in her eyes increased by three points. "You have just entered the palace. If there is anything you don't understand, you can come to me." The rules in the palace are like this, one after another. It is common for people not to understand when they first enter the palace.

As time goes by, you'll get familiar with it.

"Yes." Yu Suisui also agreed. She saw that the imperial concubine's attitude was very friendly and felt a little puzzled, but she did not ask.

The Imperial Noble Consort kept Yu Suisui for tea and chat for a while, then called her aunt in the palace to send Yu Suisui back.

When Concubine Yi of the Yikun Palace found out, she said, "She always likes to pretend!" The Imperial Noble Concubine likes to pretend to be the eldest wife in front of the Emperor, but isn't she also a concubine!

So what if she is the emperor’s cousin? She is still a concubine!

Qingguo didn't dare to respond. She could only persuade her master not to say that anymore. The Imperial Concubine was the Emperor's cousin, and a palace maid like her didn't dare to comment on her.

When Yu Sui returned to Qixiang Palace, Kangxi was already reading a book on the couch.

"Are you back? How was your day?" Kangxi asked.

Yu Suisui sat on the couch, kicked off his shoes with flower pot soles, and smiled faintly, "I didn't see the Grand Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager and the Imperial Concubine were very nice." He turned around and asked, "Your Majesty, is the Grand Empress Dowager's illness serious?"

The worry in her eyes was clearly visible. Kangxi took her hand and said, "The Empress Dowager is old." He had gotten used to the fact that the Empress Dowager would fall ill every time at this time of year.

Plus, the Royal Mother is indeed old, and her health is definitely not as good as before.

Kangxi didn't mention any illness, so Yu Suisui didn't ask. He just chatted with Kangxi for a while, had dinner and rested for a while, then started his evening fitness exercises.

Two days later, it was the first day of the new year, the day for the concubines in the palace to pay their respects.

Yu Suisui got up early in the morning and was helped by Chundai to get on the sedan chair to prevent him from falling to the ground as he was still sleepy and unable to open his eyes.

The main hall of Chengqian Palace was already full of people. As soon as Yu Suisui entered, dozens of pairs of eyes looked at him.

The person with the highest rank at the scene was Imperial Concubine Niuhulu, who was wearing a purple cheongsam and looked listless. After taking a quick glance, she quickly left and sat back in her seat.

Concubine Yi stared at Yu Suisui again and again. She was not a stunning beauty, so how could the emperor be so dazzled by her and make her a concubine so quickly?

After snorting twice, he turned around and talked to the imperial concubine about having children.

Concubine Hui and Concubine De, who were sitting on the other side, glanced at him and then looked away. They also picked up a topic to chat about.

Concubine Rong is sick today and did not come.

Soon the Imperial Concubine came out, and after everyone bowed, they began the topic that they repeated every half a month.

Yu Suisui sat below Concubine De and glanced at her. She did not look very well and looked a little tired. After the Imperial Noble Concubine said she could go back, she immediately stood up and said goodbye.

Yu Sui followed everyone and left here, returning to Qixiang Palace, where her aunt finally came to report.

Aunt Hong sprained her ankle a month ago. Liang Jiugong originally planned to replace her, but he felt that she was a rare talent. Aunt Sun also pleaded for her. Considering Concubine Shu's personality, he also came to ask about her. In the end, she stayed in Qixiang Palace.

"I'm here to thank the queen." Aunt Hong knocked her head so hard that her forehead was swollen when she got up.

Yu Suisui: "Hurry up and get up and talk." She was startled just now. When she came back and reached the door, she saw someone kneeling down with a thump. Fortunately, she did not loosen her hand holding Chundai, otherwise she would have had an intimate contact with the earth.

After getting up, Aunt Hong consciously stood on the left side of Yu Suisui and supported Yu Suisui.

Yu Suisui feels like a disabled person who is being supported.

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your forgiveness." Aunt Hong was grateful in her heart. She really didn't expect that she could continue to be the housekeeper of Qixiang Palace. She was so happy when she was chosen, and so sad when she sprained her foot later.

Not only did the empress not replace her, she also asked her to recover before coming back. When Fangyuan came to tell her this, she thought it was a lie.

It was not until she returned to the palace today that she finally felt relieved.

Yu Suisui: "I'll leave Qixiang Palace to my aunt in the future." She knew very well that these people were all selected by Kangxi, and after she replaced this batch, there would be another batch.

Kangxi was a suspicious emperor. He would not doubt you casually on normal days, but as long as he felt something was wrong, he would label you as such no matter what you did. He did not want to make his life more difficult.

"I will do my utmost to serve you, Your Majesty!" Aunt Hong said with great force.

Yu Suisui thought that was not the case. She just wanted Aunt Hong to take care of the affairs of Qixiang Palace. However, Yu Suisui did not stop her to show her loyalty.

Aunt Sun pulled her friend's sleeve and told her with her eyes that she passed.

Aunt Hong smiled and touched her nose.

After returning to her own palace, Concubine De leaned on the couch, feeling upset, but it was not because the Emperor had a new love.

She was worried about her future life. She had no son of her own, and the Fourth Prince was raised by the Imperial Noble Consort. People say that the grace of giving birth is greater than the grace of raising. The Fourth Prince had little time to meet her, and they did not have much deep feelings for her.

How is she going to live the rest of her life?

Thinking about her age, Concubine De couldn't help crying. The palace maid beside her heard it but didn't dare to step forward to persuade her.

The Sixth Prince passed away this year, and the Emperor punished those around Concubine De. The current palace maids are all newly appointed.

Listening to Defei's sobbing, the four palace maids beside her looked at each other, but did not dare to step forward to persuade her.
