An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

As the emperor's wife and the master of the harem, the empress was also responsible for managing the promotion and demotion of concubines in the harem.

Because of this, after Yongzheng came up with the idea of ​​adjusting the ranks of concubines, he summoned the empress to the Qinzheng Hall the next day.

"May your Majesty be blessed with peace and prosperity."

Because of the Concubine Hua incident, the Queen had been avoiding Yongzheng as much as possible, and would never get close to him unless it was necessary.

However, facing the summons from the emperor, the queen naturally could not avoid it, so she had to come to see Yongzheng.

After paying her respects, the empress felt a pang in her heart when she saw that Yongzheng did not respond to her immediately but seemed to be thinking about something.

It seems that the matter that called me here today must not be simple!

"The Queen is here."

Yongzheng was indeed immersed in his own thoughts. After a while, he turned his attention to the queen and said, "No need to be polite. Sit aside first. I called you here this time because I want to change the positions of the concubines in the harem, and I want to hear the queen's thoughts."

As soon as these words were spoken, the queen's eyelids began to twitch wildly.

Whatever you fear will come true!

She originally thought that the emperor calling her at this time would inevitably involve some trouble.

As expected, Yongzheng actually wanted to promote his concubines!

Almost at the same time, the faces of Zhen Huan and others flashed before the Queen's eyes one by one, making her feel suddenly much heavier.

Even so, Yongzheng was still waiting for her answer. The queen quickly collected her thoughts and said with a smile, "According to the ancestral system of the palace, below me, there should be one Imperial Noble Consort, two Noble Consorts, and then four Consorts and six Imperial Concubines. The rest are indefinite. I wonder which sisters the emperor plans to promote to higher ranks?"

The queen did not reveal her attitude directly, but stated the rules set by her ancestors. Then she looked at the emperor with a smile, intending to retreat in order to advance and find out the emperor's true intentions.

"The position of Imperial Noble Consort is the same as that of Vice Empress, and it cannot be appointed lightly. Naturally, there is no rush. There is only one vacant position among the four concubines. I think Concubine Hua has served me for so many years, and it is time to make a move."

Yongzheng slowly expressed his thoughts, then looked at the queen, who remained calm and smiled faintly, and said, "I want to give Concubine Hua the position of Imperial Concubine, and then promote Concubine Jing to the position of Concubine. The remaining noble ladies should also be promoted step by step!"

After hearing this, the Queen had completely understood what Yongzheng meant.

She originally thought that the emperor was going to promote Nian again?

But after hearing the series of arrangements that followed, the queen immediately understood.

Rather than rekindling his old love for Concubine Hua, Yongzheng's move was more like a way to make everyone look good.

If not for this, Yongzheng would only need to promote Concubine Hua and there would be no need to confer titles on the six palaces.

If it were the only one in the crowd, then it would naturally be one in a million, but now everyone has it, so the benefits Huawei has gained can only be said to be icing on the cake. The profound meaning is clear at a glance, which is enough to show the emperor's intention.

As for the noble ladies mentioned by Yongzheng, the empress didn't even need to ask.

There are many noble ladies in the palace, but only a few of them are favored by the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I would like to thank you on behalf of all my sisters!"

The thought turned over in her mind for a few times, and the queen, with a bright smile on her face, expressed her gratitude to the emperor on behalf of all the people who were about to be conferred titles.

She also knew that the emperor had made up his mind, so she simply stopped trying to persuade him.

Rather than adding to Yongzheng's annoyance and working in a thankless role, it would be better to show her gentle and considerate side. This would also make her appear generous and virtuous. This was the Queen's way of dealing with things for many years.

"I am deeply pleased that you are so sensible."

When Yongzheng saw that the Queen showed "one mind and one purpose", he was not only happy in his heart, but also his eyes towards the Queen were filled with a little more tenderness.

In response, the Queen just smiled and said nothing, waiting for Yongzheng's next instructions.

She felt that the emperor had specially called her here for more than just a simple notification.

But if I ask about it proactively, it would seem like I'm very excited about the matter, which is not good.

"By the way, I'm thinking that there are many pregnant concubines in the palace now, so let's promote them all to concubines!"

Sure enough, not long after praising the queen, Yongzheng put forward his own plans to the queen.

Upon hearing this, the Queen deliberately acted conflicted, which naturally attracted the attention of Yongzheng.

"how?"

Yongzheng looked at the queen and asked, "What's wrong with this?"

"No, I'm just thinking..." The Queen hesitated and said, "Originally, I heard that the Emperor wanted to promote all the sisters who were noble ladies to a higher level? But now, the only ones who are pregnant are Noble Lady Hui, Noble Lady An, and Noble Lady Borjigit."

So, the question is, leaving aside the deposed Noble Lady Fucha, how should we treat Cao Qinmo, who has always been on good terms with Concubine Hua and gave birth to a princess?

From the Queen's own heart, she certainly does not want to see the people around Concubine Hua gain power.

Similarly, she also hated Zhen Huan, who was deeply loved by Yongzheng!

Now, the queen deliberately played a tactic of retreating in order to advance.

If Yongzheng just wanted to use the gimmick of "being pregnant with royal heir" to reward the pregnant concubines in the palace, then Cao Qinmo would naturally have no chance. Not only Cao Qinmo, but even Zhen Huan would be torn down as well.

But if Yongzheng insisted on conferring a title on Zhen Huan, he had better treat her equally, otherwise he would inevitably be criticized.

"This……"

After the Queen said this, Yongzheng, who had originally thought that there was nothing controversial about this matter, suddenly frowned and his expression became a little serious.

He had previously told Zhen Huan and An Lingrong that he would promote them to the position of concubines in the near future.

Yongzheng cared more about An Lingrong and the others because they were pregnant with his children.

When it comes to Zhen Huan, it is pure love.

But Zhen Huan doesn’t have any children now, which is really a headache!

"How about... Your Majesty, please take it easy first?"

Seeing that Yongzheng remained silent for a long time, the empress naturally understood that he was in a dilemma, so she said with an understanding attitude: "Originally, there is no precedent for a concubine to be promoted when she is pregnant. Although the emperor likes sister Wan, he has to consider the opinions of others. Otherwise, if he becomes the target of public criticism, the emperor will also feel distressed!"

In the Queen's view, if both Concubine Hua and Concubine Jing could be promoted and then compete with each other, while the rest, such as Zhen Huan, could remain where they are, then she would be really happy!

"Forget it, there is no rush for this matter. Queen, please go back first."

Yongzheng waved his hand, interrupted the queen's words, and ordered her to leave.

The queen was startled, knowing that the emperor was still unwilling to give up, but she did not dare to say anything more and could only quietly leave the hall.
