Chapter 282 Canonization
Concubine Ling was granted the title of Imperial Noble Concubine Ling, and her entire family was raised to the Bordered Yellow Banner, with the surname Weijia.
She also raised Yongyan under her wing.
The Empress was ill and weak, unable to bear the heavy burden of the harem, so the Imperial Noble Consort took over the management of the harem and the Phoenix Seal, and led the six concubines.
Imperial Noble Consort, you can wear bright yellow.
Moreover, the Empress took charge of the Phoenix Seal while she was in power, which showed the Emperor's intention.
Usually, concubines who could obtain this position were usually sick and dying, or were posthumously awarded the title. There had never been a precedent of a queen being awarded the title of Imperial Noble Consort while she was still in power.
As soon as this move was made, the court was in an uproar, and many memorials were submitted to the emperor.
The ministers of the previous dynasty would not know about the secrets of the harem. They believed that since the queen had given birth to a prince and had not done anything wrong, it would be inappropriate to depose her without reason.
Therefore, he strongly disagreed with the emperor's decision to confer the title of Imperial Noble Consort Ling on Consort Ling.
The emperor rejected all the memorials one by one, with only one comment: The queen is crazy.
Seeing the emperor's tough attitude, the incident gradually calmed down over time, and Ruyi was completely forgotten in the corner of the Yiku Palace.
When the emperor conferred the title of Imperial Noble Consort on a woman, it was an act of deposing the empress.
After learning about this, Ulanara's mother fell ill and passed away.
At the end of November, the emperor and his concubines returned to the Forbidden City, and the ceremony of conferring the title of Imperial Noble Consort was also held at this time.
The emperor took it very seriously and came specially to accompany her after court.
The ceremony of enthroning an Imperial Noble Consort is much more complicated and grand than that of enthroning a Noble Consort.
Court robes, court beads, crowns and hats... dozens of items, large and small, were piled on her body. The embroidery on the court robes was made of pure gold thread and was more than ten times heavier than ordinary clothes.
"My Lord, you look so beautiful in this court dress. It's even more beautiful than when the Empress was bestowed with the title of Imperial Noble Consort Xian."
After Lan Cui and Chun Chan helped her change her clothes, they looked at her and praised her.
"I am truly blessed to be able to serve my master. If I had entered the palace, I wouldn't have believed I could serve the Imperial Concubine..."
"I couldn't have reached my current position without your help. Don't worry, I will never treat you unfairly in the future... But this crown is too heavy, it's almost suffocating me."
Yan Wan looked at the graceful and elegant woman in the mirror and said in a rather coquettish tone that she had been pampered for so many years that she was not so excited about another enthronement ceremony.
It was just the ceremony of conferring the title of Imperial Noble Consort, she would have to climb higher in the future.
"The higher one's position, the more expensive the clothes. This is a happy occasion. My Lord, please be patient and wait until today is over.
"Yes, my lord, please bear with me for a while. All the concubines in the six palaces are about to arrive. It's time to go."
Seeing that the time was almost up, Chunchan reminded.
"Congratulations to the Imperial Concubine on her great happiness."
All the concubines, princes and princesses were present, kneeling down to pay their respects to her.
Yan Wan looked at the golden book and golden treasure that had returned to her hands, with a thousand thoughts in her mind.
She stopped here in her previous life, and in this life she should take a step forward and pick the fruit that was once within her reach.
The emperor was also wearing court robes and stood beside Yan Wan.
Such an honor is only given to the queen.
"Royal Concubine, how about this Imperial Concubine's court dress? I said I would give you something better."
The emperor looked at her bright yellow court dress, then his eyes fell on her face, waiting for her praise.
"I thank Your Majesty for your love and favor over the years. If it weren't for Your Majesty's mercy, I would never have dared to think that I could one day become an Imperial Consort. I would probably still be just a little palace maid..."
She lowered her head and looked at the large jade beads in her hand. The unique cool touch of jade spread from her palm.
She felt a little disgusted when she saw the emperor's expression as if he had given her a piece of cake.
Over the years, she has followed his preferences step by step.
His endless love is just like giving away toys.
Yanwan Yanwan is just a bird in his golden cage.
It just happened to cater to his taste.
Over the years, she has adapted to his preferences and tried to please him. Everything she has now is what she has asked for.
She hated his condescending words.
What the emperor wanted was an obedient concubine, and she happened to be "very obedient".
The emperor raised his hand and put it against her face, looking at her gentle smile, a trace of trance flashed across his face.
He still vaguely remembered why he favored her in the first place.
But since when, there was no trace of her face anymore.
But for so many years, her smile seemed to be the same.
"You have been by my side for nearly fifteen years, bearing me a son and a daughter, and managing the six harems without a single mishap. Imperial Concubine, as long as you continue to stay by my side, I will give you all the wealth and glory you deserve."
After caressing the delicate skin on her cheek, his hand moved down and took her hand in his.
As long as she continues to accompany him, as long as she continues to be obedient and help him balance the harem, he will give her all those.
"It's a pity that I am of Han ethnicity. I'm afraid I will let down the emperor's cultivation of me."
Looking into the emperor's eyes, Yan Wan pretended to speak casually and tentatively.
Although she was given a royal surname, her ancestry was still Han Chinese, and the Qing Dynasty had never had an empress of Han Chinese descent.
Can we only stop here?
I don’t think so.
A hint of cruelty flashed in Yan Wan's eyes. She was determined to set such a precedent and let the world watch her ascend to the throne.
"Why worry about these things? I will not take a new queen. From now on, you will be the most honored woman in my harem, with the same status as the vice queen. Then you just need to help me manage the harem, and I will take care of the rest."
The emperor simply thought she was worried about the opposition from the ministers of the previous dynasty, and comforted her loudly.
He really didn't plan to appoint a new queen. One Ruyi had already exhausted him, and he was too lazy to bother with it again.
"Yes, I will definitely live up to the emperor's expectations and set a good example for the other six concubines..."
After saying that, Yan Wan leaned in his arms as usual.
That's okay, rules are made to be broken.
Since he couldn't seal her, she would seal herself.
Ruyi has fallen, and you, the emperor, will soon be gone too.
