A few days later, another concubine was added to the harem.
The emperor was a playboy, and it was not uncommon for new people to be added to the harem. However, it is worth mentioning that the newcomer was the concubine of the queen.
With this relationship, the eunuchs and maids of the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not dare to neglect her and welcomed her in respectfully. Previously, the emperor had issued an edict to make Yan Zhiman a concubine and also bestowed her with the title of Chun. She was granted the position of the head of Guanju Palace.
The six palaces were surprised.
The position of this newcomer was too high. She was the head of a palace and was also awarded a title. For many concubines, it was definitely the highest honor. It was really hard not to feel a little envious that she had received such an honor before she had even served the emperor.
In the final analysis, this was the benefit of having a good family background. No matter how badly the emperor and the queen were at odds, they would give her some face, and even more so, they would give face to Prime Minister Yan Huai, and would never treat Yan's daughter badly in such matters.
However, I don’t know if the position of Chunpin is the peak of Yan Zhiman’s career or just the beginning.
Yan Zhiman had just settled Guanju Palace, and she came to Fengyi Palace with her personal maid to pay respects. As long as she knew the etiquette, it was hard to find fault with her. Yan
Zhiman walked in in a blue palace dress, lowered her beautiful eyes and respectfully bowed to her. Her every move did not have the petty airs of a concubine’s daughter, but instead revealed the temperament of a lady from a noble family.
Yan Zhaozhao couldn’t help but secretly thought, yes, Yan Zhiman was a child who was carefully taught by Concubine Yuan since she was a child, and was loved and protected by her father like the apple of her eye. Although she was a concubine’s daughter, she had already eaten the share of a legitimate daughter at home, so how could she look like a concubine’s daughter?
"I pay my respects to the Empress." Yan Zhimao bowed with her head lowered. She was not as beautiful as Yan Zhaozhao, but rather restrained and gentle. With red lips and white teeth, she was still attractive even with a little makeup at her age. Her voice was soft and delicate, like a flower, which could easily make a man want to protect her.
"I am a newcomer to the palace today, and there are still many things I don't know. Please bear with me."
Yan Zhaozhao's eyes changed slightly. Although her words were ambiguous, she was also testing her to see if she would help her in the harem and whether she would include her in her own power.
"Since you have entered the palace, Concubine Chun should know that if a person wants to gain a firm foothold, he must rely on himself to be self-reliant and self-sufficient. The harem is full of sisters. If you don't understand anything, you can go and ask for advice."
Yan Zhaozhao said this bluntly, but it was beyond Yan Zhiman's expectation. Her father clearly told her that her sister would help her after entering the palace and told her not to worry, but now this meaning is not what her father said.
Yan Zhiman pondered for a long time, raised her head and smiled softly, "Yes, Concubine, I understand."
Yan Zhaozhao didn't have a good impression of the Yan family, so naturally she was not warm to this concubine. She treated her like an ordinary concubine, impartially, as if it was an ordinary concubine coming to pay her respects, and she didn't even give her a little preferential treatment. On the
