street

Several young palace maids were discussing as they walked.

One of the young palace maids said, "Hey, have you heard? The emperor will make Concubine Ru his consort soon!"

Another young palace maid said, "Wow, Concubine Ru is so lucky. She just had a little prince and will be made a concubine soon. She has a bright future!"

Another person said, "Who says it's not true? It would be great if I could be transferred to Jiahe Palace to serve. I can look forward to a promising future~"

The man just now said, "Yes, yes, it would be great if I could go to Jiahe Palace to serve. Looking at Rupin's current momentum, it will be just a matter of time before she is promoted to Imperial Concubine!"

As it happened, Concubine Shen was walking towards them from the opposite side and heard about 70% of what they had just said.

When they came up to him, the others whispered, "Okay, stop talking, the noble Shen is here."

Several young palace maids bowed and said in unison, "Ahem, this servant greets the noble lady Shen!"

Concubine Shen asked, "Everyone, get up. What did you say just now? I heard you talking about Rupin from afar."

A clever little maid said, "No, no, we didn't say anything!"

Seeing her trying to be clever, Concubine Shen frowned and said, "Nonsense, I heard everything just now, about the little prince, the title of consort, and so on."

Seeing this, the others hurriedly said, "Mr. Shen has misunderstood. We really didn't say anything..."

Concubine Shen said calmly, "Forget it, since you won't tell me, I'll go ask Concubine Ru~"

Everyone else is now very afraid of offending Concubine Ru. They don't even have time to flatter her, let alone let her know that they are gossiping about her behind her back.

So they all admitted obediently, "This servant said, this servant said, I heard that Concubine Ru will be made a concubine soon. She just had a little prince not long ago, and now she is made a concubine, which is really icing on the cake..."

Concubine Shen smiled as if nothing had happened. "What am I thinking? You guys don't even dare to say anything. Isn't this a good thing? I just happened to be going to congratulate Concubine Ru!"

The little palace maid said, "Ah, Lady Shen, the clear decree has not yet come down..."

Shen Guiren said, "Well, so that's how it is. Okay, I get it. Go ahead and do whatever you want to do. I'm leaving too."

The palace maids said, "Yes, Lady Shen, please take care..."

After passing by Concubine Shen and walking away, others started to talk, "This Concubine Shen has been in the palace for quite some time, and she has a good appearance and family background, so why isn't she favored by the Emperor?"

"Everyone has their own preferences. Maybe the emperor is not interested in Concubine Shen!"

"Hahaha, hurry up and stop talking. Be careful not to let Concubine Shen hear you! Hurry up and leave!"

A few people left here laughing and joking.

As they walked away, Concubine Shen couldn't help but whisper to Pearl beside her, "It seems that Concubine Ru is really going to gain the upper hand this time."

Zhenzhu nodded. "Yes, no one else has the ability to compete with Rupin. The only one is Qingpin, who is a person who does not like to fight with others."

Concubine Shen said disdainfully, "She is so old, and she has two daughters to take care of. She is also a good person. How can she be worthy of the position of concubine and the responsibility of assisting in the management of the harem?"

Pearl suggested, "Why don't you take this opportunity to hold Rupin's thigh tightly?"

Concubine Shen smiled thoughtfully and said, "Of course you will. I have something else for you to do."

Concubine Shen whispered something in Zhenzhu's ear. Zhenzhu was surprised at first, then smiled. "My lady, I understand."

Within a few days

After Zhenzhu's deliberate spread of the news, more and more people knew about it, and everyone treated Concubine Ru as Concubine Ru. Even the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs flattered the powerful and looked down on the weak, sending all the good things to Jiahe Palace first.

Jiahe Palace

"Sister, you haven't come to Jiahe Palace for a long time. Have you ever talked to me?" Rupin said

Concubine Shen said politely, "Sister, you still have to take good care of the little prince. I won't disturb you!"

Rupin said, "Hey! Look at what you said. You can come to Jiahe Palace anytime. I welcome you. There is no such thing as disturbing or not disturbing me!"

Concubine Shen smiled slightly and took out a box. Inside was a shiny gold necklace with gorgeous gems inlaid in the middle.

"Sister, what are you doing?" Rupin asked knowingly.

"Don't think too much, sister. This is a gift for the little prince! You are not allowed to refuse it on behalf of the little prince! This is a small gift from Empress Shen to the little prince~" Concubine Shen said while gently rocking the little prince in the cradle.

Rupin said happily, "Okay, okay, since my sister has said so, then I will accept it on behalf of Chenyou, but it will cost my sister money again!"

"Oh, you're too polite, sister." Shen Guiren said

As the two were talking, someone from the Imperial Household Department suddenly came over.

Zi Han invited the person into the room, and the person bowed respectfully and said, "Your servant Xiao Senzi greets Lady Rupin and Lady Shen!"

Rupin said, "Okay, get up."

Xiao Senzi said, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs has just received a few pieces of colorful brocade. We servants thought that Concubine Ru would look great in it, so we rushed to bring it to you!"

Afterwards, Xiao Senzi clapped his hands, and the people behind him brought a few pieces of colorful brocade and placed them on the table.

Concubine Shen walked to the table, gently touched the colorful cloud brocade, and said, "This cloud brocade is the most precious, and it is the most precious of all cloud brocades, the colorful cloud brocade. It shows that your Ministry of Internal Affairs is thoughtful~"

Xiao Senzi smiled and said, "Mrs. Shen is really discerning! There are only a few rare horses, so she immediately sent them to Concubine Ru."

After listening to Concubine Shen's introduction and Xiao Senzi's flattery, Concubine Ru was extremely happy! "Good, your Ministry of Internal Affairs is doing things more and more properly."

Xiao Senzi chuckled and said, "It is an honor for us servants to make Her Majesty smile!"

Concubine Shen joked, "Look at how sweet you all are. You sent all these horses to Jiahe Palace. If the Empress knew about this, she would punish you."

Xiao Senzi said, "Oh my, Miss Shen, you are too polite. As for the Empress, we have already sent red silk and satin to her!"

Concubine Shen covered her mouth to hide her smile and looked at Concubine Ru.

Rupin said, "Okay, you are very thoughtful. I will take note of it. Please go down first."

Xiao Senzi said, "Yes! I will take my leave."

After Xiao Senzi left, Shen Guiren laughed out loud and said, "The people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are really cunning. They sent colorful brocade to my sister and silk to the queen, but the queen can't be angry! After all, hers is "pure red" and the colorful brocade is colorful."

Rupin also smiled and said, "Yes, as the queen is the main wife, it is best for her to wear red~"

Concubine Shen teased, "Look at the people in the Imperial Household Department, they are so caring towards you~ Is it possible that good things are about to happen to you~"

Rupin said, "To be honest, good things will happen soon!"
