The Imperial Concubine Is So Charming!

Chapter 416: Pomegranate has many seeds

Just as I mentioned it in the evening, the next day people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs delivered the imperial concubine's auspicious clothes.

It wasn't enough for Huiyue and Nanzhi to hold the clothes, so they brought in Luhe and Luzhi, and it took four of them to bring in a complete set of clothes.

Everyone was amazed.

Nanqi did not have the title of Imperial Noble Consort. Noble Consort was the highest rank among the concubines, so the auspicious dress of the Noble Consort was not much different from that of the Queen, and the color was very close to bright yellow.

The auspicious dress was also embroidered with a seven-tailed golden phoenix, the only difference from the phoenix robe was the peony.

"Let us help Your Majesty put it on and try it on." Huiyue's eyes lit up.

Looking at the others, they all looked expectant.

Ye Jun smiled and nodded, then went into the house surrounded by several maids.

But this change is beautiful, but it is also really heavy and makes people feel uncomfortable.

"This dress is just for looking at. It will be uncomfortable for anyone who wears it." Ye Jun stood up with the help of the maids, feeling very amused.

I don’t know whether I am suffering or enjoying happiness.

Luzhi smiled and adjusted her skirt, "I don't know how many people are jealous and want to experience the pain of the queen."

"It's still hot now, so it will be more difficult for Your Majesty to perform the enthronement ceremony. This dress is made of solid gold and silver threads, and is decorated with pearls, agates, and turquoises, so it is naturally very heavy." Huiyue also smiled.

Ye Jun sighed inwardly, no wonder it was sent to her in advance and she was asked to try it on.

It would be embarrassing if he couldn't adapt to this and couldn't stand it at the enthronement ceremony.

Originally, Concubine Hui was to be conferred the title together with her, but Ning Chen intended to have her conferred the title alone, so the ceremony of conferring the title on Concubine Hui was held in advance, just two days before Ye Jun.

The procedures for conferring titles of consort and noble consort are similar, so Ye Jun could just watch others go through the process in advance.

The day came when she was conferred the title.

Ning Chen was afraid that her weak body could not stand the scorching heat, so he deliberately moved the enthronement ceremony forward by half an hour.

The sun only became really strong after the part of the process that required sun exposure was completed.

At the same time, the concubines and officials finally understood the significance of the emperor's early enthronement ceremony.

This thoughtfulness is enough to make people envy.

After the enthronement ceremony.

Ning Chen and the officials who came to watch the ceremony had their meal in the front, while Ye Jun led the concubines in the harem to hold a banquet in Zhaochun Palace.

After returning to Zhaochun Palace, Ye Jun changed into more comfortable clothes.

She wore a bright red Begonia brocade skirt with a smoke-basket Ruyi pattern, her hair was in a He Yue bun, and on her head was a red gold agate seven-tailed phoenix hairpin that was only worn by imperial concubines, which was really eye-catching.

Her snow-white skin makes this dress look even more delicate like jade, her eyes are as charming as silk, and she smiles slightly.

She looks so pretty, she doesn't look like someone who has given birth to three children.

"Please take a seat, everyone. I have been promoted today and will need the help of all the sisters in managing the affairs of the six palaces in the future." Ye Jun sat down calmly and waved her hand gently.

Concubine Hui was the first to express her support, "We, your servants, will do our best to share the worries of the Imperial Concubine."

With her as the first step, the other concubines followed suit no matter what they thought.

After everyone sat down, Ye Jun asked someone to bring out a few trays.

"On this day of my great wedding, I don't have anything nice to give to you sisters, so these jewels are just a small token of my appreciation."

After she finished speaking, the palace maids took the things in their hands and brought them to the seats of the concubines one by one.

From high positions to low positions, everyone present has them, and they are all different, and their values are consistent with their positions.

Yi Zhaoyuan felt jealous, but she could only feel jealous in her heart.

After all, her family couldn't afford such a lavish gift.

However, these things of Ye Jun did not all come from the subsidies from her mother's family. Many of them were rewards from Ning Chen.

She had been favored for many years, and her private storeroom was full to the brim, so she took the opportunity of moving to sort out all her belongings.

There are many pieces of jewelry that I bought when the market was at its lowest point that are no longer usable and are all new.

So add some good ones and give them all away, so that they don’t have to pile up in the warehouse gathering dust.

And it can also win over the hearts of the people.

This is indeed the case.

Among the concubines who received rewards, except for a few who were openly hostile to Ye Jun, all the others showed joy on their faces.

But at this time, Concubine Rong Shu, who was sitting next to Concubine Jing Xian, saw something and opened her mouth.

"Hey, there is a small box in the tray of the virtuous concubine. What good thing is this? We don't have it."

When she said this, Concubine Jingxian's eyes turned cold, and she wanted to sew her mouth shut.

But before Concubine Jingxian could answer the question, Ye Jun spoke first with an apologetic look on her face.

"Don't think too much, Concubine Shu. This is just a little extra compensation from me to Concubine Jingxian. A few days ago, the emperor went to Zhongcui Palace for dinner. I was not feeling well, so I asked the emperor to come to the gate of Zhongcui Palace and then leave. Thinking that Concubine Jingxian rarely sees the emperor, I feel uneasy, so I gave Concubine Xianxian the agate pomegranate that I like so much."

The old matter was brought up again, and pomegranates, which symbolize many children and good fortune, were given as a gift. However, the virtuous concubine was infertile, so how could she have many children

Even someone as tolerant as Concubine Jingxian changed her expression in anger.

"You don't like it, Concubine?" Ye Jun raised an eyebrow and took a sip from the teacup. "Look at your ugly face. It's probably similar to what I looked like when I had a difficult childbirth."

After hearing this, Concubine Jingxian's pupils contracted sharply and she stood up immediately.

"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. I am just flattered and surprised for a moment. I am not unhappy. Your Majesty also likes to joke."

Ye Jun didn't say anything, but just looked at her with a faint smile, his eyes full of coldness.

In such a subtle atmosphere, Concubine Jingxian couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and her palms seemed to be sweating slightly.

The other concubines also sensed some other flavors to some extent.

But they were all human sperm, so no one opened their mouth.

In the end, Ye Jun jokingly changed the subject.

"I am just joking. Xianfei has never given birth, so how can I know what a difficult birth is like? But today is a good day, so I won't say such unlucky words. Xianfei, please take a seat."

"Yes." Concubine Jingxian lowered her eyes, gritted her teeth, and sat down in frustration.

At the banquet, she had no appetite and felt that everyone was laughing at her.

Ye Jun's ambiguous words directly tore off most of Concubine Jingxian's disguise.

How could a favored imperial concubine embarrass a virtuous concubine who had been out of favor for a long time and was old and ugly, especially when it came to the issue of difficult childbirth

The Qin who took action was from Concubine Jingxian's palace.

If there really is something involved, then Concubine Jingxian is far from being as noncompetitive as she appears to be.

For a time, most people in the harem began to take some precautions.

The banquet was over and the concubines left.

However, Concubine Jingxian's sedan chair had not been moving for long when Nan Zhi caught up with it and stopped it.

"The Imperial Concubine asked me to tell you that this agate is rare, and it is even more precious if it is carved into a pomegranate. To show the harmony in the harem and the deep love between the sisters, the virtuous concubine must put it in a prominent place in the palace so that she can see it every day."

Concubine Jingxian was so angry that she almost spit fire in her heart, but she could only look respectful and said, "I will remember this."
