The princess was fed contraceptive soup on the day of the marriage exchange, and she went crazy

Shi Huaizhi immediately narrowed his eyes and looked at Sheng Nanzhi: "You seem unhappy?"

Sheng Nanzhi was naturally not very happy about it.

But she also knew that Huaizhi was already the emperor.

There were some things that she could talk about without restraint with Shi Huaizhi who was hiding beside her and acting as her bodyguard, and she could even talk about them with Shi Huaizhi who was the Prince of Yi, but she could never talk about them with Shi Huaizhi who was the Emperor.

Even though it had only been a few days, and even though Shi Huaizhi's attitude towards her remained the same.

But she had experienced her previous life, so she naturally knew that the change in identity from prince to emperor brought about changes that were not just a matter of title.

When you are in a high position, there are more things to consider and weigh, so naturally you cannot do whatever you want.

She lowered her eyes: "It's not that I'm unhappy, it just feels a bit sudden."

"But even though it's a little sudden, I can accept it."

"These past few days, I've been asking the people around me to pack up their things."

"The important things and daily necessities should have been packed up."

Sheng Nanzhi thought for a moment and said, "If we are going to move to the palace today, I will send someone to inform the concubines."

"Have the positions of the concubines and the palaces they will live in been arranged?"

Shi Huaizhi's throat moved slightly. Yes, he had several concubines in his backyard.

He almost forgot.

Sheng Nanzhi reminded him.

"Those concubines are not what you think."

He couldn't help but want to explain to Sheng Nanzhi: "I haven't consummated my marriage with any of them. I married them before because of various reasons. I had to marry them."

Sheng Nanzhi raised her eyebrows. There was no need to tell her all this, she could understand it.

A man.

However, when Shi Huaizhi was the sixth prince, he had to take in six concubines for various reasons. Now that he has ascended the throne as emperor, there will probably be even more concubines that he cannot refuse.

I wonder if there is enough room in the palace for his concubines.

There are too many people, which is not good and difficult to manage.

Shi Huaizhi had no idea that Sheng Nanzhi's thoughts had already drifted away, and continued, "I have thought about dismissing them directly."

Hey!

Don't!

Sheng Nanzhi was about to speak when she heard Shi Huaizhi continue, "But after careful consideration, I think we should follow what we mentioned before and respect their ideas."

"Those who are willing to enter the palace will be brought in together."

"If anyone wants to leave, just give them some silver and send them away."

"If they want to enter the palace, that's fine too. It will ensure the harem is not empty, and it will also help silence the court officials."

"I have just ascended the throne and have many things to deal with. I don't want to be distracted by the matter of taking a concubine."

Sheng Nanzhi nodded, that's true.

The concubines in the mansion are all good people with decent character, and they all have a good relationship with her.

If Shi Huaizhi wanted to live in peace for a while, bringing several concubines from the mansion to the palace would indeed be the best option.

But a man's heart is more changeable than the weather.

Now he just wants to handle the affairs of state properly. After a while, when his throne is a little more stable, maybe he will see those beautiful daughters in the court officials' houses and start to have some ideas again.

Sheng Nanzhi thought about it and said with a smile: "That's fine."

"Then I'll ask someone to call the other concubines over so Your Majesty can ask them personally."

"After all, they are all elders in His Majesty's household. If His Majesty wants to bring them into the palace, the rank they are given cannot be too low."

"Jinxin has been helping with the chores of the palace, and has made great contributions. Plus, she is close to the Queen Mother, so she should at least be given the title of Consort."

Shi Huaizhi glanced at Sheng Nanzhi's face. He really couldn't tell anything from her calm expression.

He lowered his eyes and pursed his lips slightly: "You are right, then make Jin Xin the virtuous concubine."

Sheng Nanzhi frowned: "Jin Xin is fully worthy of the title of virtuous concubine. But... the late emperor's virtuous concubine was Li Yueru."

"Whenever I think of her, I feel that this title is a bit off-putting. How about giving her the title of Consort Shu?"

“This one sounds good too.”

Shi Huaizhi responded softly, "Okay, I'll do as you say. As for the others, make them all concubines."

"As for the titles, just choose a character from their names. Second Consort Yin Qiu will be called Qiupin. Third Consort Qin Chaochao will be called Chaopin. Fourth Consort Zhou Yingxue will be called Xuepin. Consort Liu Tang Yinxiang will be called Xiangpin."

Sheng Nanzhi's eyes curved, "Very good, they all sound good, that's settled then."

They had just decided on the positions of several concubines when they came together.

Several people were talking and laughing, and were about to greet Sheng Nanzhi, but they saw Shi Huaizhi sitting in Sheng Nanzhi's house.

The few of them immediately shrank back and dared not move, like mice seeing a cat.

Jin Xin tugged at the sleeves of several people, and they all took two steps forward: "Greetings to His Majesty, long live His Majesty."

Shi Huaizhi responded softly, "Get up."

Then he stopped talking.

He didn't say anything, so his concubines naturally didn't dare to speak either. They just lowered their heads and didn't even dare to raise them.

Sheng Nanzhi was a little puzzled. Usually, Huaizhi was talkative in front of her, and he was kind and gentle, without any airs.

Why...the concubines seem to be very afraid of him?

But Shi Huaizhi had no intention of speaking, so Sheng Nanzhi could only smile and say, "I called you here today because His Majesty asked us to enter the palace today."

"So I came to ask you, how are you packing up?"

"And, at the same time, I'm asking for your wishes."

"I married into the palace relatively late, and I don't know why each of you came here, whether it was voluntary or just a routine matter. I still have to ask if you are willing to come with us into the palace. His Majesty said that if you truly don't want to enter the palace, we will make appropriate arrangements for you."

Several people looked at each other, and then carefully looked at Shi Huaizhi's face.

Jin Xin had spoken first, very gracefully: "I, your concubine, am willing to enter the palace."

Sheng Nanzhi laughed: "That's good. His Majesty and I have already discussed it. If you are willing to enter the palace, Jinxin, you will be appointed as Consort Shu."

"You've worked hard in the palace these past few years. You may have to work hard again when you enter the palace. You were once a palace resident and you understand everything there, so you'll be able to handle it easily."

Jin Xin quickly knelt down to express her gratitude: "Your Majesty, thank you, Queen."

The others saw that although Shi Huaizhi was sitting there, he didn't seem to intend to speak, and Sheng Nanzhi's attitude was still the same, as warm as before, so they all became a little bolder.

"I am willing to enter the palace."
