Chapter 174: Refusal to Accept

  No one mentions it, but Wei Guiren, who gave birth to Eighth Brother, has been stuck in the position of Guiren for many years.

  Zhang Jia Shi who gave birth to thirteen princes is still a concubine, Wang Shi who gave birth to three princes is also still a concubine.

  In the harem, several children were born to concubines and consorts, but none of them have been promoted in rank until now.

  Yu Pei's humble origins were thus elevated solely due to her pregnancy, and she was suddenly promoted to the rank of Pei.

  In modern terms, that's totally asking for trouble.

  On the tenth day, Yanxi Palace was already prepared early in the morning.

  As there was no empress, the consorts only needed to go to the Qianqing Palace to pay their respects, then head to the Chengqian Palace to see the noble consort before returning to the Yanxi Palace for a banquet.

  The four consorts and Madame Li had entered the palace early in the morning and were now waiting in the Yanxi Palace.

  Although I didn't want to have anything to do with Yu Pei, once she became a pei, it was a main palace position, and not coming would be impolite.

  The fourth wife was dressed up today, and compared with usual, she had more momentum.

  It's not just the four imperial consorts. From top to bottom, from inside the palace to outside, anyone who came to congratulate Yu Pei was dressed to the nines.

  No one is convinced.

  It's not just that Yu Pei was born into a humble background, but rather what kind of humble background was she born into?

  It's simply unbearable, she entered the brothel at a young age, and after all these years, even her real hometown can't be investigated. Moreover, being a dancing girl for so many years is already an extremely lowly status.

  But just because of pregnancy, she can become a mistress. Who can bear it?

  Fortunately, those who came to congratulate in the harem were only the masters of Pin and Guiren below.

  However, outside, Da Furen, San Furen, Si Furen, Wu Furen and others are all legitimate wives with excellent backgrounds. Which one of them would look down on such a concubine?

  Whether you like it or not, you have to come. So I can only overwhelm the opponent in momentum.

  Fortunately, Yu Pin had risen too easily and hadn't thought about what to do at the ceremony. This day also passed peacefully.

  Returning to the mansion in the evening, Fuhua caught a chill and had a headache.

  "If Master is unwell, shall we call for the doctor?" said Yang's nurse.

  "It's all right, just rest." The lady waved her hand.

  "Master... although today is a good day for Yu Niangniang, but... you are also the noble Beile Furen, it's still possible to call in a doctor." Yang Niang thought that Furen was being modest.

  "I'm not really concerned about this, I just don't feel like seeing the imperial physician. It's nothing. I've just caught a bit of wind. Is everything all right in the mansion?" The lady waved her hand.

  Seeing her unwilling to see a doctor, Xiuhua and others busied themselves giving her a head massage.

  "Everything is fine in the mansion, nothing has happened. Is everything going smoothly in the palace as well?" Yang asked.

  She didn't bring her today, so she's not clear about what happened in the palace.

  "Hmm. Since Yu Niangniang is favored, everything will naturally go smoothly." Fu Jin said calmly.

  Mrs. Fu didn't want to say anything else, so Yang's wife didn't ask anymore. She went out to see if the soup from the kitchen had arrived, and after drinking it, she should wash up and go to sleep.

  The lady leaned on the soft couch, letting the maids massage her head, thinking about the jade concubine she saw today.

  Really a good-looking face, charming and seductive, but looking at it makes people feel... disgusted.

  The imperial concubine wasn't someone who hadn't seen a woman with a seductive appearance before. Isn't the one in the manor, Ye Shi, also a woman with a seductive appearance?

  Even more beautiful than Yu Fang, even more enchanting, she was a living, breathing fox spirit.

  Ke Ye's appearance was that of a fox spirit, but at first glance, she still looked like a woman from a good family.

  The rules are absolutely fine, even if they were born that way, but in terms of attitude, they are extremely proper.

  Thinking of this, I feel that Ye's family is very good.

  The thought of a dignified mistress being in such a state, and still in front of everyone, made Madame Fu feel as if she had swallowed a fly.

  "Master?" Xiuhua saw her complexion was not good and softly called out.

  "It's nothing, I'm just feeling a bit queasy. Alright, don't rub anymore, bring me something to drink." The mistress sat up, letting her long hair scatter about.

  Xiu He let out a few "ai" sounds and then left.

  In the palace, although Emperor Kangxi was still unable to move around, he was carried here to Yanxi Palace.

  The ladies of the Yanxi Palace are overjoyed today, and Emperor Kangxi has also saved face.

  Yu Pei wore a lotus-colored changshan, draped in a cloak, and came out to greet Emperor Kangxi: "Your humble concubine pays respects to Your Majesty, wishing you good fortune."

  "Get up, today is your lucky day, I have come to see you." Kangxi smiled with a good mood.

  "Your humble servant thanks you, Your Majesty. It's cold outside, please come in quickly." Yu Pei was charming and elegant.

  She is indeed a woman with extremely strong learning ability, and has already grasped the essence after entering the palace for just over a month.

  She was indeed a woman with some luck, and in just over a month, she became pregnant and was promoted to Pin.

  In Yanxi Palace, there were two more people, one was Wen Guiren and the other was Shu Fei Zhang Jia Shi.

  Wengui gave birth to a gege, but she died prematurely before the age of three. She herself was not favored and had been in the position of guiren for over a decade. She is already yesterday's flower.

  Zhang Jia gave birth to the 13th prince and two princesses. Although she was a concubine, she had always been somewhat favored.

  As for why I didn't get promoted, it's hard to say clearly.

  In the harem, there is more than one concubine, and more than one has given birth to a child.

  This child, after paying respects to Emperor Kangxi, obediently returned to their own room.

  Thirteen Grandfather has been living in A Ge's residence for two or three years, and the two gege are not in Yanxi Palace, but live in a palace next to Yanxi Palace, very close. So now Zhang Jia Shi also lives alone.

  She entered the house, and her maid Cui'er said: "Miss, go to bed early. Today is a good day for Yu Niangniang, we don't need to stay up."

  Emperor Kangxi cannot come over.

  "Alright, sleep." Zhang Jia was an extremely intelligent woman, so she wouldn't do something as foolish as stealing a man.

  Besides, she wouldn't have been able to withstand it for many years, let alone be a match for the powerful Yu Fengniang.

  In the main hall, Yu Pei was waiting on Emperor Kangxi very comfortably.

  Although she was pregnant, she still served Kangxi Emperor once.

  Outside, Li Dequan and Yan Mingchun exchanged a glance, both feeling... rather disgusted.

  Only a little over a month pregnant, and she dares to serve like this, isn't she afraid of losing the child...

  It seems like this young master is also a fleeting figure!

  "Grandfather Li, Grandfather Yan, why don't you two take a rest over here?" Eunuch Chen Da of the Imperial Concubine Yu's palace came up with a smile to strike up a conversation.

  Li Dequan and his wife went in and rested as a matter of course.

  It's freezing cold in this winter month, if you stand outside for a whole night, you'll be done for!

  Whether horizontally or vertically, it's not easy for His Majesty to move around. If something happens, they wouldn't dare not call him. Let's take a break then.

  Chen Da saw the two grandfathers giving face, and he also let out a breath of relief. His master was a concubine, and although she seemed to be in a favorable position, he always felt uneasy about it.

  The master's origin is too low after all.
