On the day of Concubine Shu's father's birthday, Concubine Shu came to Yangxin Hall early to accompany her. She wore a coral red dress today, with exquisite makeup, and she looked very noble.

"Your Majesty, what do you think of my concubine's dress?" Concubine Shu sat next to Emperor Yinde and asked while helping him grind.

"Very good." Emperor Yinde closed the memorial, glanced at Concubine Shu, and said with a smile, "It's almost time. You should go early. Don't keep your family waiting."

Concubine Shu put down the ink note and said, "Yes, I will retire."

Concubine Shu was about to leave when she saw Li Fuhai hurriedly coming in to report, "Your Majesty, the Queen is here."

Immediately afterwards, the queen in a phoenix robe appeared in the Yangxin Hall, "I send my regards to your majesty. May your majesty be blessed with peace and prosperity."

She respectfully saluted Emperor Yinde, and every move she made showed the nobility of the mother of a country.

After a few months, Emperor Yinde felt happy to see that the queen was still willing to come out.

But everyone knows that they will never go back to the past.

"Queen, get up quickly and sit here."

Emperor Yinde greeted, Concubine Shu bowed to the queen at the banquet and was about to leave.

"Where are you going, your concubine?" the queen said. She had already sat down beside Emperor Yinde and brought the ginseng soup she had made to Emperor Yinde.

"Queen, my concubine is leaving the palace and returning to the palace. Your Majesty has already agreed." Concubine Shu said, showing off proudly.

"Even if His Majesty has agreed, he still needs to notify the Ministry of Internal Affairs three days in advance, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs will make arrangements. The imperial concubine also assists in managing the harem. Do you really not understand this rule?"

After the Queen finished speaking, Concubine Shu's face darkened, "Queen, are your Majesty's words useless?"

The queen took out her handkerchief and handed it to Emperor Yinde, ignoring what Concubine Shu said.

Emperor Yin De knew that this was his mistake and didn't say anything.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became cold.

Li Fuhai received Emperor Yin De's eyes and said quickly, "Your Majesty, forgive me, the Queen, forgive me, and the Concubine, I'm sorry. This is because I didn't remind the Concubine in time, and I deserve to die."

"Masters, please give me a chance to make amends. I will definitely deliver the birthday gift given to General Zhou by your concubine."

"Go quickly." Emperor Yinde glared at Li Fuhai and said angrily.

As Li Fuhai retreated, Concubine Shu also knew that she would never be able to return to her natal family today.

"Concubine, please leave." Concubine Shu said and left angrily.

"My concubine, I came here today because I wanted to discuss a few things with Your Majesty and you. You just left in such a hurry, forgetting what other responsibilities you still have?" The Queen's tone also became cold. After a while, there was an undeniable majesty in his tone.

Concubine Shu had to turn around and looked at the emperor and empress sitting together. She wanted to leave immediately, but she had to sit on the other side of Emperor Yinde.

"Queen, you are in good health, don't worry about some things." Emperor Yinde looked at the queen and said with concern.

The Queen shook her head, "I am fine now. I heard that Your Majesty has expanded the territory. I am very happy. I will recover from my illness soon. For such a big happy event, I think about the sisters who will replace the harem." , ask for a favor from Your Majesty."

When Emperor Yinde heard this, he raised his eyebrows lightly and said, "Come and listen to what the queen has to say."

"I am thinking of sealing the harem as a sign of favor. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

The queen smiled and took out the book she had written in advance to seal the harem.

The virtuous concubine was promoted to the virtuous concubine.

Xian Zhaoyi was promoted to Concubine Xian.

Cui Xiuyi was promoted to Zhaorong and given the title Duan.

Ji Xiurong was promoted to Zhaoyuan and was given the title Hui.

Liu Cairen was promoted to Liu Meiren.

To put it simply, except for Concubine Shu, everyone else has been promoted.

Emperor Yinde took the book and smiled with satisfaction, "The two titles of Queen are well chosen, I am very satisfied."

"These are all the minions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who drafted titles and sent them to Fengyi Palace. The concubines chose them. Titles are not a trivial matter. How could I be careless? If Your Majesty feels that there is no problem, I will instruct the Ministry of Internal Affairs to draw up a decree. Already?" the queen said, and glanced at Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu's face turned green from the first moment she saw this brochure.

"Your Majesty, I feel that Concubine De is not qualified for the position of concubine because she is young, and Xian Zhaoyi has only been in the palace for a short time, so how can she take the position of concubine? And..."

"In the harem, heirs are the most important thing, and I think they deserve it." Before Concubine Shu could finish her words, she was interrupted by the queen.

In short, Concubine Shu said that others are not worthy.

Emperor Yinde took the pamphlet and looked at the words 'virtuous concubine' on it. He could tell that Yao'er had given birth to two children for him. She was naturally worthy of the concubine position. But if Jin was granted the title of concubine at this time, I'm afraid that Concubine Shu will target her even more.

"Since the imperial concubine doesn't want to, just let Feng Duan Zhaorong, Hui Zhaoyuan and Liu Meiren be promoted. Xiao Nanzi, you let people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs draft the decree."

After Emperor Yinde finished speaking, he no longer looked at Concubine Shu.

"Didn't the queen say that there are several things? What else is there?"

The Queen smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I feel that there are too few concubines in the harem, so I want to wait until next spring to select a selection for Your Majesty."

"Empress, it is a rule to have a draft every three years. Is the Empress thinking of breaking the ancestral rules?" Concubine Shu gave the Empress a sharp look.

The queen said calmly, "Your Majesty, what the imperial concubine said is quite formal, but I want your majesty to imitate my father. I heard from my mother that when my father ascended the throne, in order to enrich the harem, he also spent two years It was a draft, so I feel that there is nothing wrong with what I did today."

"Then I'll do as you say." Emperor Yin De said, holding the queen's hand, "You should be considerate of me."

"I and Your Majesty are husband and wife, so I am naturally considerate of Your Majesty." The Queen said with a smile.

"Since you are considerate of me, I will ask you to run an errand again. Xiaolin has reached the age of marrying a wife now. If the marriage cannot be settled, I am afraid that my aunt will be angry with you and me."

The queen nodded, she had always cared about this matter, "Your Majesty, don't you know Xiao Lin's temperament? Marrying a wife is not concubinage, it must be in line with his wishes."

The more Concubine Shu heard this, the angrier she became. She couldn't hold it back, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen, I am not feeling well, so I have to leave first."

Emperor Yinde nodded, "Yue'er, I still have official duties, so please step aside first. I will accompany you for dinner, and let Jin'er go to Fengyi Palace as well."

The Queen and Concubine Shu left the Yangxin Hall one after another.

"Your Majesty, I have something I want to tell you."
