Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Chapter 273 Kangxi Concubine Ping 10

When the imperial edict arrived at Chuxiu Palace, Wu Lingzhu was talking to Chunying.

"Princess, Eunuch Liang is here, bringing the imperial edict." Xiaodunzi came in and said with an unconcealable joy on his face.

Wu Lingzhu stood up with a smile: "Chun Ying, is there anything wrong with my clothes?"

Chunying was also overjoyed: "No problem, this outfit is very decent, Princess."

"Alright then, let's go!"

Wu Lingzhu walked out holding Chunying's hand, and then was greeted by Liang Jiugong's big smiling face.

This was the first time in her two lifetimes in the Qing Dynasty that she saw Liang Jiugong give her such a sincere smile!

"Your servant greets the Majesty, may the Majesty be blessed with good health and good health."

"Eunuch Liang, you don't have to be polite. Please stand up."

"Thank you, empress."

After Liang Jiugong got up, he stood up straight and said: "The emperor has issued an order, please accept it, Your Majesty."

Wu Lingzhu and other palace maids from Chuxiu Palace knelt down to receive the order.

Liang Jiugong: "…I only want to assist Kun Yi, use the duties of the palace to assist in the internal governance, and especially the virtue of being virtuous and virtuous. I will examine the old rules and promote the new order. You, Hesheli, are virtuous and gentle, and have a good nature. You are in the ranks of the palace. You have achieved the honor of being honored by the sound, the rites and the canons. I should give you more favor. I follow the Empress Dowager's kind instructions and canonize you as Yifei. You should cultivate your wife's virtues, be diligent and cautious to support the palace, always obey the emperor's words, live up to the grace and enjoy the blessings!"

"Empress Yi, please accept the order."

Wu Lingzhu received the imperial edict and said: "I thank the Lord for his grace."

This is just a decree. With this, she can be addressed as Concubine Yi.

There was also a formal enthronement ceremony afterwards, as well as the gold-plated silver book and gold seal that the concubines were entitled to.

"My lady, please get up!"

Wu Lingzhu smiled and stood up, then Liang Jiugong said: "The emperor said that although you are a concubine, you enjoy the share of a noble concubine. These rewards are from the emperor's private storehouse, and the emperor personally ordered me to deliver them to you."

This attitude and posture are much more grand than the first life.

The young eunuchs put down their things. Before leaving, Liang Jiugong smiled and gave some instructions on how to use the batch of white silk. Wu Lingzhu blushed when she heard it.

Everyone in the imperial court probably knew about what she and Kangxi played with in bed.

She politely sent Liang Jiugong and others away, and gave out a lot of money. After they left, the palace maids in Chuxiu Palace began to congratulate her.

Then there was another round of rewards.

Empress Yi, who enjoys the status of a noble concubine, is the only concubine who has been given the title of concubine even though she has no children. This is what makes her special.

She was visibly favored.

The palace maids in Chuxiu Palace appeared to be more dedicated and considerate.

Chengpin was the first one to come and congratulate her. The "sister" she used to call her had now become the empress. Wu Lingzhu didn't say anything, but privately, she still called Chengpin "Sister Baozhu".

The "friendship" between the two has become more solid because Wu Lingzhu's position is within the expected value, and now all they need is another child.

However, as for the issue of children, Wu Lingzhu has not planned to have one in the last two years. The prince is not yet grown up, and if she wants a child, Kangxi may not be happy to see Hesheli have two princes.

The former dynasty and the harem are closely related, with both positive and negative correlations.

Kangxi's interest in her now stems more from her appearance and temperament that are beyond his expectations. Concubine Yi was just a word he said on impulse, otherwise he would not have asked Liang Jiugong about it, nor would he have been discouraged by Liang Jiugong's word "Crown Prince".

The announcement of Concubine Yi's position was undoubtedly like a depth bomb dropped into the harem.

Anyone with eyes could see Kangxi's attitude towards Wu Lingzhu in the past. They thought that he would give her a position and support her as a sister-in-law when she reached a certain age, but Kangxi's attitude now made them feel uncertain.

She enjoyed the treatment of a noble concubine, which means that although she was not canonized earlier than the other three concubines, her status was higher.

This is Kangxi’s attitude.

Among all the concubines in the harem, the one who felt the most uncomfortable was Concubine Hui. She was the mother of the eldest prince, and Wu Lingzhu was the prince's aunt. In her eyes, Wu Lingzhu was a staunch supporter of the prince.

The prince has the absolute favor of Kangxi, and there was also Hesheli in the previous dynasty. Now there is another aunt in the harem who has a promising future.

"They don't even want to leave anyone alive. What's going on with Concubine Yi? Why haven't I heard of her before? She's been in the palace for several years, but how come she has no presence at all?"

Concubine Hui couldn't understand it.

The nanny explained: "She entered the palace at the age of ten. She looked ordinary at that time. She didn't like to show up on weekdays. She only appeared at the annual banquet a few times a year, sitting at the bottom, and didn't need to greet."

There are many concubines in the harem, and the fighting is fierce and fast.

When Wu Lingzhu first entered the palace, she would definitely attract attention, but she has not been heard from for several years. Who would think of her?

Concubine Hui sighed and asked, "Have you found out her whereabouts and habits?"

"Our people in Chuxiu Palace are currently still cleaning eunuchs, so we can't get any details, but what we do know is that Concubine Yi has been close to the Queen Mother and Concubine Cheng in recent years. The Queen Mother likes Concubine Yi very much. It is said that Concubine Yi has a face like Guanyin."

Before this, really no one paid attention to Wu Lingzhu's appearance. It's not that no one noticed, but Wu Lingzhu deliberately concealed it. When she realized that her face was changing for the better, she would use makeup to cover it up when she had to appear in public.

It is difficult to make a person look good, but it is not that difficult to make a beautiful person look ugly.

"Her face looks like Guanyin? Is there a real Guanyin in this harem?"

Concubine Hui's tone was extremely sarcastic.

She is not a good person, but there are no good people who can make it in the harem.

Good people are either out of favor or become a pile of bones.

Apart from Concubine Hui, the most resentful one among the others was Concubine De. In the past few years, she had been trying to regain the emperor's favor. She had the means, but there was the life of the prince between her and Kangxi, so she had no choice. The reason why she didn't directly demote Concubine De was for the sake of the face of the Fourth Prince and the Sixth Prince.

The more her presence became, the more annoyed Kangxi became.

As a result, the Sixth Prince went from being the most favored prince at the beginning to being the least favored prince. On the contrary, the Seventh Prince was more favored.

Looking at Depin's appearance, Chengpin felt a lot happier.

Depin had been trying so hard to get the position she had always wanted, but Wu Lingzhu got it after serving him in bed because of her family background. This reminded her of the time when she was a maid for Imperial Concubine Tong.

"Family background, family background, family background, why don't I have a good family background?"

The nanny beside her didn't know how to comfort her.

The concubines in the harem all need the emperor's grace to nourish them. In the past, Depin was favored and everything was good to her. Now that she has lost the favor, her temper is not as good as before.

The people around her had originally gathered together for the sake of interests, and now, looking at Concubine De, their hearts were not as firm as before.

After Wu Lingzhu started to serve the emperor in bed, she never stopped enjoying the emperor's favor. She looked so attractive that people worshipped her, and Kangxi was a little overwhelmed by her for a while.

The Empress Dowager supported the Crown Prince and said nothing about Kangxi's favoritism towards Wu Lingzhu.

As for the prince, because of Wu Lingzhu's sudden favor, many people around him said bad things about him, and the prince was lukewarm towards Wu Lingzhu.

Wu Lingzhu was only a few years older than the prince, and was very polite to him without being too pushy.
