Some people are happy while others are sad.
When the three ladies entered the palace, Rong'er's heart was filled with respect.
Although Rong'er had no intention of inquiring as to who they were, when they entered the palace, everyone knew that due to the fact that Zhizhi had already retired, the spirits of the Changchun Palace had agreed to move to the Palace of Kung, and Lu had agreed to move to the Palace of Rong-er's Palace, while the two people who had entered the Palace of Chou, one was the sister of Empress Zhao, the other was the principal palace of the former Empress, was conferred the title of Imperial Consort Wen, became the successor of the Palace of Chun Fu, and the other was bestowed with the title of Minister Dai Qianxue and his daughter Dai.
Rong'er understood that the death of the Empress was not clear, and that the position of concubine in the Newcome Family was beneficial for the relief of her family, so she was promoted to her family. She was often given a good birth, but there was something strange about Dai Jiaxue entering the palace, because her father was a seventh rank official in the army, so Dai Jiaxue must have had some special background.
On the second day after they officially moved into their respective chambers, Rong'er led Ruo Lan, Toya, and Wei'er to pay respects to Imperial Consort Wen. After all, Imperial Consort Wen's title was rather high, and she had to have some etiquette, and she looked like she was only 14 years old. Unlike Empress Xiao Zhao, who had a gentle personality and always treated people courteously, Rong'er thought that when Imperial Consort Wen was born, Empress Xiao Zhao was already a person who was ordered by the empress dowager to enter the palace.
”Imperial Consort Wen, we entered the palace around the same time as Empress Xiao Zhao, you have just entered, please feel free to tell us what you need us to do, we will do our best, if not, please advise us.” Rong'er said to the Imperial Consort Wen with a smile.
In front of him was a woman who looked to be in her thirties. There were traces of age on her face, but her expression was gentle, her eyes were sincere, and she wore a light pink forging garment, giving off a solemn and refined yet warm feeling. This was the feeling of being a concubine, she had once heard her brothers talk about how her elder sister, the filial queen, did not like her. Perhaps it was because he had seen her for a long time. Otherwise, why would his elder sister dislike her so much?
”You are too courteous, Concubine Rong. Although I live in the Imperial Concubine, I am a descendant with many things that I do not understand, relying on my older sisters who entered the palace before me to advise me.” Imperial Consort Wen suppressed her thoughts, and said with a gentle and soft voice.
”This concubine doesn't dare.” From the looks of it, she was more beautiful than Empress Xiao Zhao. Or maybe, she was not beautiful, but young, and was still young. Those things that she could never find back, they might be more important than being beautiful.
In the afternoon, Cheng agreed to pay respects to Rong'er. Rong'er finally understood what was so special about Dai Jia's beauty: ”Beautiful.” She could not describe her beauty in the form of snow, it was a very fresh, very natural kind of beauty, very elegant and heart-stirring feeling. She should be around sixteen or seventeen years old, it must have been the wrong time for her previous talent, so she entered the palace late.
This was already enough to make a woman more confident. Rong'er thought that perhaps this was due to her family background, although her father was only a seventh rank official, he was still a fifth rank official, but unfortunately, he was only born in the same uniform, which was the difference: She could directly participate in the palace selection, while Rong'er could only participate in the selection.
Rong'er liked her a lot, and felt that she should be one of those kind of kind-hearted girls. After giving her a careful warning, she couldn't help but worry for her, because she lived in the Palace of Endless Peace, and other people don't know about concubines, so she understood, she had a faint feeling that this matter with Jingzhi should have something to do with An Zhu, but unfortunately, she couldn't find any evidence of it. She was afraid that this girl would be at a disadvantage, but there was nothing she could do, so she told her that she could always look for this girl in the future.
Perhaps it was because Cheng's promise had left a deep impression on her, Rong'er's impression of Chang Consent was very vague. He hurriedly met her and even though she was very beautiful, she couldn't compare to Dai Jiaxue, who was the same age as her.
