If the situation continues like this, there will be no place for other women in the harem.

She started to get anxious.

She thought, she has to do something.

But she didn't even dare to harbor the intention to harm anyone.

After all the planning, the only thought he had was to spread the woman's arrogant reputation.

result……

A look of sadness appeared on Concubine Hui's face.

"We... should make room for others."

She seemed to be laughing and crying, "I wonder if Concubine Xian has any regrets."

On the day of the selection, it was Concubine Xian who decided to let that woman enter the palace.

The virtuous concubine understood the emperor's indifference to women, and she also knew that for concubines of lower rank, life in the harem would be endless.

She let her cousin into the palace not out of kindness.

However, the subsequent developments surprised everyone.

Who could have predicted that the emperor's heart, which could not be moved by so many peerless beauties, could be moved by a woman who was disliked by her father and brothers and not protected by foreigners.

Seeing her master's demeanor, Baoyue's face was filled with heartache. She said in disbelief, "Why is it so? His Majesty has always been kind and generous. You are his cousin and have done nothing wrong. How could His Majesty be so heartless..."

She thought that her master was worried about her life.

But when Concubine Hui heard this, she burst into laughter.

She didn't explain anything, she just laughed until tears came out.

…………

Everything that happened in Shaoguang Palace was played out with little difference in the bedrooms of several high-ranking concubines in the harem.

Did Concubine Xian regret it?

She regretted it so much that her intestines turned green.

As soon as the imperial decree for the election was issued that day, when it was learned that the daughter of the Jiang family who was running for election was Jiang Lingyue, her mother sent a letter asking her to make sure to bring the candidate into the palace.

This is to prevent Jiang Lingyue from being eliminated and having nowhere to go, and from missing her engagement with his younger brother.

Her younger brother was good in every way except that he was soft-hearted. He was especially soft-hearted towards his cousin who was disliked by her father and brother and was bullied by her stepmother.

Unfortunately, at this moment, although my brother's marriage has been decided, he has not yet gotten married.

Only by selecting the right person to enter the palace can we be absolutely sure.

For the sake of her brother's future, Concubine Xian had no choice but to say no.

Anyway, no matter how beautiful a woman is, in front of the cold and ruthless emperor, she is nothing but a skeleton.

She was born into a noble family and was an old lady from the Eastern Palace period, so she was given a high position and could often see her family members. She lived a comfortable life.

Those newcomers who entered the palace started as low-ranking concubines, waiting to die in this deep palace.

This is the future that Concubine Xian predicted for her cousin.

Who knew such a big accident would happen.

If she had known the situation today, she would rather hold her nose and accept this sister-in-law.

The concubines in the harem were shocked, regretful, and had all kinds of thoughts in their minds.

Inside Ning'an Palace.

Jiang Lingyue looked at the palace maids and eunuchs who were kneeling on the ground to congratulate her, and smiled as she ordered Jinshu to reward them.

As a favorite concubine, she had too many fine things in her hands. Even the little maids who were cleaning the Ning'an Palace had more luxurious hairpins on their heads than those of some concubines of lesser status.

Not to mention the several senior palace maids serving in the palace, even if you meet the palace maids from Chengming Palace, you have to give them some face.

It really has everything, inside and out.

After the palace maids had left the hall, Jin Yu, Jin Shu, and several other senior palace maids came over and said with delighted faces, "Your Majesty, great joy!"

Jiang Lingyue was indeed happy. She smiled and gave each of them a jade hairpin, then instructed, "Pour out a bowl of chicken soup from the kitchen, and I'll take it to His Majesty."

The two of them lay in the same bed last night, and the man didn't even notice.

As a result, she was promoted without any fuss.

This is indeed a surprise.

The timing is so coincidental.

Jiang Lingyue certainly noticed that Concubine Hui intended to step on her to enhance her own reputation.

But she ignored it.

One reason is that she has a clear understanding of her own position, and she believes that a favorite concubine should act like a favorite concubine.

The second reason was that she wanted to see how far the emperor's constant love could go.

In her previous life, he sat back and watched, allowing her to be bullied and slandered, and she was repeatedly oppressed in his harem.

And this time, as a beneficiary, Jiang Lingyue had to admit that she was... a little satisfied with the Emperor's performance.

She had no intention of winning unfairly. If she could achieve victory by doing nothing, why would she refuse?

Anyway, he is the emperor, and even if the women in the harem fight with each other, it is not as effective as his one word.

Just because she no longer expresses affection doesn't mean she can't enjoy the other person's affection.

After some planning, Concubine Hui directly promoted her to the position of noble concubine.

The more Jiang Lingyue thought about it, the happier she felt. She slowly got into the sedan chair.

After many days, she stepped into Chengming Palace again, carrying a food box.

She came here on a whim.

Seeing her arrival, several eunuchs outside the palace were surprised and said, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment."

One of them turned and went into the hall.

In Chengming Hall, Qi Junyi was discussing matters with the court officials. Liu Rong took the opportunity to pour tea and reported in a low voice.

Hearing this, Qi Junyi was startled and turned his head to look towards the window, just in time to see the girl's smoky-colored skirt.

He frowned slightly, "What happened?"

"It's nothing serious." Seeing that he misunderstood, Liu Rong hurriedly explained, "The Queen said that the chicken soup stewed in the kitchen today is good, so she specially sent it to you to try."

As he spoke, Liu Rong sighed in his heart, the sun really rises in the west.

The hard-hearted imperial concubine actually knew how to return a favor.

Although his Majesty had voted for the position of a first-rank imperial concubine and the imperial concubine rewarded him with a bowl of chicken soup, this was the first time in her history.

Not only Liu Rong sighed, Qi Junyi was also surprised.

This was the first time in his life that the girl came to find him on her own without his request.
