The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth

The imperial carriage stopped outside Shaoguang Palace.

Concubine Hui, who had received the news early, was already waiting at the palace gate with a group of concubines.

Under the gazes of so many people, Jiang Lingyue calmly got off the imperial carriage.

In fact, she was helped down by the emperor himself.

The emperor, who has always been cold and rarely even sets foot in the harem, can actually be so considerate to women.

It was so quiet that it was terrifying.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

Concubine Hui was the first to react and knelt in greeting.

Qi Junyi said "no need to formality", took the hand of the girl beside him, walked into the main hall, and went straight up the stairs.

Of the two seats at the top, the other one should logically belong to Consort Hui, the head of Shaoguang Palace. But at this moment, he simply raised his chin and said to Jiang Lingyue, "Sit down."

Jiang Lingyue: “…”

She didn't have the habit of being humble and subservient. The emperor was not a person who didn't know the rules. He was greatly honoring her by doing this in front of the concubines.

With such great favor, anyone who dares to set rules for her would be slapping the emperor in the face.

To postpone it any further would not be ungrateful, but rather stupid as a pig.

It's just being hard on myself.

Jiang Lingyue never made things difficult for herself, so she slowly sat down.

Just as Concubine Hui was about to step forward, her steps froze.

He had been in charge of the inner court for three years, taking care of everything, lacking in cunning and means, but he just stayed where he was.

In fact, I have never seen such a scene.

I'm afraid this is the first time in the three hundred years of Dahan's history that a maid sits in the first seat and the queen stands below.

After a moment of stunned silence, even though the emperor was present, Concubine Hui's expression changed uncontrollably.

Jiang Lingyue was already feeling very uncomfortable. Seeing this, she was about to stand up, but the emperor next to her grabbed her wrist and held her down tightly.

"Sit your seat,"

After comforting the girl beside him, Qi Junyi lowered his eyes and looked down.

He did not offer any seats, so all the concubines stood.

The three concubines in the front are Hui, Shu and Xian.

Qi Junyi said calmly, "Go to Guang'an Palace to summon someone. What's the matter?"

Without beating around the bush, as if in a hurry, he spoke directly and frankly, showing no mercy to the three concubines.

Concubine Hui could no longer hold back her shame.

All the concubines in the harem were in the palace today. However, when she summoned a female official, the emperor came in person to defend her. This was a slap in the face. How could she maintain her dignity and take charge of the inner court in the future?

But Junwei was so majestic that she didn't dare to show even a little bit of resentment.

Facing the questioning, he knelt on the ground, his face pale, and said:

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I just heard that Miss Jiang has been enjoying great favor recently. I thought that the palace would have another sister. So, I took advantage of the fact that the sisters came to pay their respects today and summoned her to meet them. I also wanted to discuss with the two sisters what kind of position should be given to Miss Jiang."

She didn't dare to lie, nor did she find some high-sounding excuses, but directly stated her true purpose.

Because the emperor dotes on her so much, he really wants to meet Jiang Lingyue.

I really want to give you a warning.

For the promotion of concubines of lower ranks in the harem below the third rank, the three concubines Hui, Xian and Shu can make the decision directly. For those above the third rank, they can also submit a petition to the emperor to request a promotion.

Have enough say.

Everyone inside and outside the palace thought that Jiang Lingyue had been in the palace for ten days and was still just a female official, and had not been canonized as a concubine, because of her previous marriage.

After all, stealing a minister's fiancée is not a glorious thing.

There has to be a reason, or someone has to bring it up first, before it can be given a status.

At this moment, she specifically brought up the idea of ​​status, which could be used to determine Jiang Lingyue's status.

It's also a gesture of goodwill.

Concubine Hui boasted that she was able to judge the situation, bend and stretch, and not care about gains and losses in a short period of time.

However, the emperor, who was listening with his eyes lowered, did not seem very pleased to hear this.

He paused for a moment while drumming his knuckles on the table before slowly saying, "You can't decide her position."

There are no words that can touch people's hearts more than this.

Concubine Hui was shocked, her forehead touched the ground, and she said in a trembling voice, "I understand."

As for what exactly was known, no one dared to say at this moment.

The virtuous concubine and the virtuous concubine also kowtowed.

All the concubines behind the three men also knelt on the ground.

Summer clothes are light, and they are all of the right age, with slim figures, and they are dressed in bright and eye-catching clothes.

Jiang Lingyue took a look and saw the whole hall full of fair, fragrant and soft girls, and she felt that they were so beautiful.

Among these slim concubines, Concubine Xian and Concubine Zhao, with their bulging bellies, stand out particularly.

She looked at the two people for a while, and Qi Junyi's gaze also fell over.

As if he had just remembered that there were two pregnant concubines in his harem, he was stunned for a moment, tightened his grip on her hand, pulled her up and said, "Let's go."

He left his ministers behind and rushed over. Now that the matter was done, he really didn't have the time to stay here and smell the pungent smell of perfume.

If Concubine Hui was a smart person, she would never dare to think about her again in the future.

In less than an incense stick of time, the imperial sedan chair left.

Watching the bright yellow imperial carriage going further and further away, Concubine Hui's face turned as pale as a ghost and her body was shaking.

She had been planning and working hard for so many years, and the throne of queen was almost within her reach.

The emperor was about to give it to someone else.

A girl who was once engaged to a foreign official.

Before this, everyone in the capital knew that the Dali Temple Minister was deeply in love with the eldest daughter of the Jiang family and had visited her house several times to propose marriage.

Everyone knows that they are a match made in heaven and have feelings for each other.

That was a girl who had other men in her heart.

But the emperor, who was high above everyone else, didn't care at all.

What he prepared for her was...the queen position.

The highest position a woman can reach.

…………

Catch up with the car going back.

The two sat side by side.

Jiang Lingyue lowered her eyes and looked at the two people's hands intertwined.

She discovered that this man really liked to put his palm against hers. Whenever they were alone in their free time, he loved to hold her palm and squeeze it casually.

Often at this time, he would be in a good mood.

For example, at this moment, his tone was particularly gentle. "Next time, no matter who summons you, just ignore them. Got it?"

Jiang Lingyue nodded gently, "I obey your order."

Qi Junyi was too lazy to get annoyed by her self-proclaimed name.

No matter what her intention was in constantly reminding herself of her "slave" status, it had no effect.

Now that she has entered the palace, he can't let her escape under his nose.

Qi Junyi asked, "Just now in Shaoguang Palace, did you understand anything?"

...Understand something?

She hadn't even sat down for a moment when he pulled her away.

From beginning to end, he never opened his mouth.

And he just said a few words to Concubine Hui.

The most profound sentence is, "You cannot determine her position."

Thinking back to what he said that day at Wuyuanhou Mansion...

I asked about it again at this time.

No matter how dumb Jiang Lingyue was, she understood what he meant.

——She has to take the throne even if she doesn’t want it.
