Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 159 Mid-Autumn Festival
The Mid-Autumn Festival is another important festival in the palace. Although Su Qingyan lost her child yesterday, the palace banquet has been prepared long ago, and it is impossible that it will not be held because of her.

The mid-autumn palace banquet is held near the evening. After all, August [-]th is the most suitable time to enjoy the moon, so the time of the palace banquet will be different.

As the emperor, Emperor Jing had to appear at the palace banquet. He stayed with Su Qingyan in Tao Ranju until the evening, and then he appeared in the Yueyue Palace.

The concubines had already arrived, and when they saw Emperor Jing, they couldn't help but jump for joy, and they only hoped that the emperor would pay more attention to them.

"Let's start the banquet." Emperor Jing was not in the mood at first, but only appeared because he had to come. After sitting down, Emperor Jing ordered.

As Emperor Jing's voice fell, the singing and dancing began, and the palace people presented melons and fruits to each table so that everyone could watch while eating.

Concubine Rong picked up her wine glass, and took this opportunity to look at Emperor Jing.

At this time, Emperor Jing didn't have much smile on his face, which made Concubine Rong very uncomfortable, she knew very well why Emperor Jing was like this.

"Your majesty, I would like to respect you." Standing up, Concubine Rong looked at Emperor Jing with a smile on her face, but it was just right.

The emperor is not in a happy mood, if she smiles flamboyantly, wouldn't it make him even more unhappy?In this regard, Concubine Rong is still very measured.

Hearing Concubine Rong's voice, Emperor Jing set his eyes on her, picked up the wine glass, and drank with Concubine Rong.

"Seeing that the emperor has lost a lot of weight recently, I know that the emperor is busy with court affairs, so please take care of your health."

After finishing drinking, Concubine Rong Gui spoke softly, her words were full of concern.

"My concubine has a heart, I know." Nodding, Emperor Jing showed a smile on his face, he put down the wine glass, pointed to a dish in front of him, and ordered someone to deliver it to Concubine Rong's table.

After receiving the dish from Emperor Jing, the smile on Concubine Rong's face deepened.

After halfway through the singing and dancing, Emperor Jing looked at Kang Ninghai. Kang Ninghai understood, took out the imperial edict that he had prepared a long time ago, and read it out in front of all the concubines.

"By heaven's blessing, the emperor's edict said: Jin Chen's noble concubine is the third-rank Zhaoyi, Qi Xiuyi is the third-rank Zhaoyuan, and he is bestowed on Yongchun Palace, Zhang Ronghua is the fifth-rank Jieyu, Zhao Shunyi is the seventh-rank Liyi, Li Cairen is It is the eighth grade Shuhua, respect it!"

An imperial decree from Emperor Jing can also be regarded as conferring the harem, and most of the conferred this time are the group of beautiful girls who entered the palace with Su Qingyan three years ago.

However, among them, although Qi Tong was granted the residence of Yongchun Palace, in terms of status, she is not as honorable as Su Qingyan.

Although both are of the third rank, Su Qingyan is Zhaoyi and she is Zhaoyuan.

All the women in the harem knew that Zhaoyi was below the imperial concubine, and Zhaoyuan was after Zhaoyi.

That is to say, Su Qingyan has a higher status than Qi Tong for both being the third rank. Not only that, Su Qingyan also has one more title than Qi Tong.

Although many people were promoted by leapfrogging this time, among them, the one with the greatest span was Su Qingyan.

After all, she has jumped from a noble concubine of the fourth rank to a Zhaoyi of the third rank.

Of course, apart from being jealous of Su Qingyan, many concubines in the harem were also jealous of Qi Tong.

After all, she is also of the third rank, although her status is a little lower than Su Qingyan, but she has uniquely received the Emperor's gift, giving her the Yongchun Palace.

After being in the harem for a long time, everyone knows that Yongchun Palace is very good in the harem, no matter its location or anything else.

Now, Qi Tong is Zhaoyuan of the third grade. According to the rules of the palace, she can live in the main hall of Yongchun Palace and become the head of the first palace.

Concubine Rong sat in her seat, feeling very uncomfortable. Although her status was noble enough, she still felt very uncomfortable when she saw someone else getting the title of Jin.

Because it was Mid-Autumn Festival, Concubine Hui brought Princess Xin to the palace banquet. Concubine Hui showed no extra expression when facing the concubine's conferment. She sat in her seat and teased Princess Xin beside her.

In the end, this Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet was spent with different thoughts among the people. After the palace banquet was over, Emperor Jing went directly to Tao Ranju in his dragon chariot.

It stands to reason that Emperor Jing should go to Qifeng Palace on the first and fifteenth day of every month, but now that the Empress is under confinement, she cannot even participate in the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, so it is naturally impossible for Emperor Jing to go to Qifeng Palace.

In addition, he missed Su Qingyan in his heart, so it was even more impossible to go to other people's palaces.

Seeing Emperor Jing's return, Su Qingyan couldn't help being a little surprised. Now that she is confinement, she can't serve Emperor Jing at all, but Emperor Jing still came to her. It's impossible not to be moved.

"Ah Qing, you are now Zhaoyi, and I have also promoted Qi Xiuyi to the position, and now she is Zhaoyuan. In addition, I also rewarded her with the Yongchun Palace."

After returning to Tao Ran Residence, Emperor Jing changed his clothes and washed again, then sat beside Su Qingyan, and told her about Jin Feng.

"Zhaoyi?" After listening to Emperor Jing's words, Su Qingyan couldn't help being a little surprised. She originally thought that if she could be promoted to Xiuyi, she would already be pretty good.

"Well, Zhaoyi, Qi Zhaoyuan's status is second only to you, but I gave her to live in Yongchun Palace, it can be regarded as appeasement, as for yours, we will talk about it later."

After all, Qi Zhaoyuan is pregnant now, and Su Qingyan is a concubine who lost her child. If it is true, Qi Zhaoyuan's status should be higher than Su Qingyan's, but unfortunately, Emperor Jing let Su Qingyan's The rank is higher than that of Qi Zhaoyuan.

Of course, no matter who has a higher rank, reaching the third rank is enough to become the head of the first palace. This palace will be bestowed sooner or later.

However, Emperor Jing gave Qi Zhaoyuan a palace first, and the palace belonging to Su Qingyan was suppressed by him for the time being.

"Your Majesty, Qi Zhaoyuan is pregnant, so she should have a higher status than my concubine. It is the emperor who dotes on my concubine, which makes my concubine's status higher than Qi Zhaoyuan. Your majesty, the concubine is already very content. Besides, my concubine likes Tao Ranju very much. In winter, the plum blossoms in Tao Ran Residence bloom, and they are very beautiful."

To Su Qingyan, it doesn't matter whether the palace is rewarded or not, it's just a place to live, Tao Ran is quite comfortable to live in, there is no need to live in the palace.

Besides, even if she doesn't live in the palace, her position is still Zhaoyi, so the palace is really not important to her at all.

"I know you don't care about the palace, but what should belong to you, I will definitely give it to you. Don't think about anything else, just take care of yourself."

After hearing Su Qingyan finished speaking, Emperor Jing stretched out his hand and stroked Su Qingyan's face with a very gentle tone.

In response, a smile appeared on Su Qingyan's face, she rubbed against Emperor Jing's palm, and then looked at him.

The distance between the two is very close, and she can clearly see that there is a little her in Jingdi's gentle eyes...
