Su Tong has no shortage of sons and daughters nowadays. This harem selection is not to add some new people to his harem. Most people are here to choose wives for the princes.

So there are many new faces in this draft. I have to say that the fat orange guy in the past was really sinful. He is almost 50 years old, but he still has the nerve to touch those young and fresh girls. He is really shameless.

Because the first seven princes were about the same age, their wives had to be selected at once, along with a few princesses to serve them.

The concubines in the harem also have their own favorite candidates, and Su Tong will approve them as long as there is nothing wrong with reporting them.

However, some concubines' calculations were about to hit themselves in the face. The wives they chose for their sons alone were from prominent Manchu families, and even the concubines' families were of comparable status. At the same time, the concubines and princesses were all people with certain influence in the court.

Su Tong didn't object to his daughter-in-law's family being good, but the fact that they were both eating and taking things was a bit ugly.

The person Su Tong was talking about was none other than Concubine Xian. It seemed that she was really too idle, which led to all these messes.

Su Tong immediately gave his son a concubine with a prominent family background, as well as several concubines with prominent family backgrounds.

Just when the Empress Dowager and Concubine Xian had no time to be happy, Su Tong bestowed another Mongolian wife on them, the subtext of which was that this son was out.

The Queen Mother fell ill when she learned about this. In fact, she also wanted Concubine Xian's son to fight for it. After all, she was her distant niece, and the blood relationship between the two was close, much closer than that of the Queen.

Everyone knows that once a prince marries a Mongolian wife, he is tacitly separated from the line of heirs. The comparison person is Kangxi's tenth prince.

After holding on for a lifetime, the princes under him were all peaceful. Even if there were some small actions behind the scenes, they were never exposed.

Su Tong also understood the painstaking efforts of Kangxi as a father. He wanted his son to be ambitious, but he didn't want his son to be too capable.

There were still a few familiar faces in this talent show, such as Shen Meizhuang, Zhen Huan, An Lingrong and a not-so-outstanding Mongolian princess.

As for the previous Noble Lady Fucha, Xia Dongchun, and Chun Da Ying... the first one passed the additional test quite well, so she was directly awarded to one of her sons as a concubine. The other one was too stupid, so he did not want her. The other one was too young, and he was not that kind of person, so it was impossible for him to want such a young girl.

The reason these three people were kept was naturally to watch the show. Knowing that An Lingrong's family background was ordinary, Su Tong went to explain to the Queen and directly let An Lingrong enter the palace and learn the rules from the nanny.

Su Tong actually didn't like Shen Meizhuang. First of all, this person was too pretentious. She said that she loved chrysanthemums and would rather die with fragrance on the branches than be blown away by the north wind, but in the end, she still committed an affair.

And there was the fake pregnancy incident before. It was such an obvious trap. Any other concubines with a bit of common sense would have been on guard against it. But you were so foolish as to jump into it. Aren’t you stupid?

And there is the matter of mung bean soup. After all, Shen Meizhuang has read a few history books. Hasn't she learned the story of "Why not eat meat porridge"?

Zhen Huan is a more complicated person. It would be fine if she looks somewhat similar to Queen Chun Yuan, but the key is that her hobbies and the things she studies are similar to Queen Chun Yuan. Do you think this is a coincidence?

At the end, he even said something about you being so naive. Your feelings are ultimately misplaced. How could the emperor have any feelings for you? You two are not husband and wife.

Su Tong valued An Lingrong so much naturally in order to give himself some space to fill it with some things. He immediately assigned An Lingrong to the Chengqian Palace. The queen lived in the main hall, while An Lingrong lived in the side hall.

The Queen thought that Su Tong liked An Lingrong, but she found out that the Emperor had only given her the position of a concubine.

"What ranks does the emperor plan to give to the remaining three newcomers?"

Su Tong touched his chin. The rank of that Mongolian princess must not be low, so he directly gave her the rank of a noble lady without a title.

Shen Meizhuang was given a position of a maid, but was also given a title - "Zhuang".

In fact, Su Tong would rather give them a "pretentious" title. Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan are really good sisters. Both of them are really good at pretending. One pretends to be virtuous and looks like a lady from a noble family, while the other says that she does not want to enter the palace, but prays to marry the best man in the world. Isn't the best man in feudal society the emperor?

Su Tong arranged the two people directly to Suiyuxuan. Since no one was living there anyway, he let them live together.

When Shen Meizhuang was only a maid, she had some vague ideas in her mind, because according to her family background, she must be a noble person.

Fortunately, the emperor awarded her a title, which sounds nice when said out loud, meaning dignified and virtuous. This shows that the emperor is extremely satisfied with her performance in the selection.

Zhen Huan was even more disappointed. She thought the emperor would fall in love with her at first sight, but he gave her a rank of concubine, the same rank as the daughter of the sixth-rank official An Bihuai. This...

There were a total of three new people entering the palace this time. Although the empress dowager was somewhat dissatisfied, Su Tong felt that it was just right. She even said that she would not add any more people to her harem in the future.

At this time, the former dynasty was busy with the marriages of several princes. As a result, Su Tong rummaged through the national treasury and found that the country was really too poor. He immediately opened sea transportation and took out glass, cement and explosives.

Although I can't make money, my land can make money. As for the matter of Lao Ba before, hey, I'm the winner anyway, there's no need to worry about that little thing. I'm not always that petty. Besides, my son is so rich, there's no need to worry about these people making waves.

Although Lao Ba was very unwilling, the outcome had been decided and the country was at peace. Unless they wanted to confiscate their property and put them in jail, they would not do anything rebellious or treasonous.

Having many sons is also a political asset. At least if one has many sons and each of them is very capable, his throne is very stable.

Although Su Tong did not reveal who the future crown prince would be, he attached great importance to the two legitimate princes of the queen, and his attitude was very obvious.

After finishing the affairs of the previous dynasty and the harem, it had been more than half a year since the newcomers entered the palace. Su Tong simply flipped over Shen Meizhuang's name card, and then Zhen Huan's.

Hearing the other party talking about dragon and phoenix candles and husband and wife, Su Tong sneered twice.

"Husband and wife? What a blessing! You are just a little concubine, but you dare to call yourself my wife. What a face you have! Where do you put the empress?" Su Tong threw away the beads and simply returned the jade intact to Zhao, and had her carried away directly.

Zhen Huan also experienced the fickleness of human nature, especially after she was returned with the jade intact, she was ridiculed for several days. Fortunately, the main ladies in the harem were all kind people, and the matter was over with a laugh.
