After rebirth, His Highness Xinshu was pampered by me.

Chapter 32 Harem Dispute
When Empress Li asked this, she naturally didn't just mean to ask what Jinse looked like and what her temperament was.

More importantly, Queen Li wanted to know whether this Jinse was suitable for her own use.

After all, he had the credit for rescuing the emperor in the Imperial Garden last time, so Jinse was considered to be the one who had the right words in front of the emperor.

If she could pull such a person into her camp, Empress Li felt that it would definitely be beneficial and harmless to her.

Shui Xiu thought about Jinse's performance that day, and then said with some disdain: "Jinse looked like a little girl, and everything showed on her face. When the slave girl went to deliver rewards that day, she was even more focused on those good things. I couldn’t bear to move my eyes for a long time.”

Empress Li frowned when she heard this: "Oh? She is so short-sighted?"

Shui Xiu was not optimistic about Jin Se: "Xu is young and has not experienced much. Although I don't know what will happen to her in the future, I am afraid that she cannot be used as a master now."

After hearing Shuixiu's words, Queen Li temporarily rested her thoughts.

However, I still have a word of advice: "In that case, don't have too much contact with her. However, I also ask the people below to pay more attention to her. If she is used, she will be better than others." .

Shui Xiu naturally understood the meaning of Queen Li's words, so even though she felt disdain for Jin Se, she still nodded in agreement.

Just at this time, a servant came from outside to report that all the empresses and mistresses of the harem had arrived.

Empress Li then straightened her expression, stretched out her hand to support Feng Chai on her head, and then signaled Shui Xiu to lead the people in.

Not long after, Queen Li saw several colorful figures walking in from outside.

It was the three concubines and four concubines headed by Concubine Wei Shu, as well as the seventh concubine and other harem concubines.

In the prosperous harem, the rank of women included Jieyu and Meiren.

The beautiful concubines are usually not qualified to come to pay their respects except on the 15th day of the Lunar New Year, so naturally they didn't come today either.

Several empresses and mistresses came in and greeted them. Empress Li didn't want to argue with her. She raised her hand to ask them to stand up, and then she all sat down.

After everyone thanked them, they took their seats in four rows, left, right, front and back.

Empress Li looked at the vacant seat at the front on the left, frowned and asked, "Why don't you see Concubine Jiang here?".

After saying that, Empress Li glanced sideways at Shui Xiu and asked dissatisfiedly: "Did you miss that Concubine Jiang didn't notify her when you sent someone to deliver the message?"

Of course, that's what I asked, but Queen Li didn't think so either.

Shui Xiu hurriedly bowed and said, "Where is the master? After receiving the order, the servant will naturally be summoned from everywhere!"

Concubine Wei Shu put down her teacup, took a handkerchief and pressed the corners of her lips, and then said, "I think Sister Jiang is feeling unwell somewhere, so she has to come later, right?"

Empress Li glanced at Concubine Wei Shu, and then said to Shui Xiu: "Send someone to see Concubine Jiang again to see what's wrong with her!".

Shui Xiu responded quickly, turned around and left.

Just then, Concubine Jiang walked in from the door holding the hand of the palace maid.

As she walked, she looked at Wei Shufei and others and said with a smile: "Hey, why do the sisters come so fast? It seems that I am slacking off!".

After finishing speaking, Concubine Jiang did not wait for Concubine Wei Shu to say anything. She bowed to Empress Li and said, "Greetings to the Empress.".

After speaking, Concubine Jiang stood up on her own without waiting for Empress Li to say anything.

Empress Li glanced at Concubine Jiang, waved her hand and said, "Since you're here, take a seat.".At this moment, Empress Li didn't bother to ask Concubine Jiang why she came so late. She could only do small things like mismatching clothes and shoes, and whether the jewelry and gouache were suitable.

Queen Li was tired of hearing this.

Just because Queen Li didn't ask, it doesn't mean that others don't have opinions on it either...

For example, He Zhaoyi, who usually talks a lot, became very unhappy when she saw Concubine Jiang's pride.

Although He Zhaoyi entered the palace early and had sufficient qualifications, it was a pity that her family background was difficult to carry out, and the prince she gave birth to died early, so she had not taken up this position for many years.

As for Concubine Jiang, even though she had only been in the palace for a few years, due to her good family background and having only a four-year-old princess under her knees, she was still able to secure her position as the first concubine among the four concubines.

Therefore, He Zhaoyi always disliked Concubine Jiang.

Seeing that Empress Li was still so polite to Concubine Jiang, He Zhaoyi couldn't help but said: "After all, Concubine Jiang comes from the Duke of Jiang's house, so she has more confidence. The Empress is also so unhurried and impatient when delivering edicts, how can she be like that?" My concubine, after hearing the news, came over without delay."

However, Concubine Jiang was not angry after hearing this, but responded with a smile: "No, alas, He Zhaoyi, you don't have a good family background like me, now you can only say a few sarcastic words like this, Comfort yourself!"

Those who couldn't deal with He Zhaoyi couldn't help but laugh secretly after hearing these words.

He Zhaoyi was so angry that the veil almost tore.

Queen Li was equally unhappy.

Although the words He Zhaoyi said were aimed at Concubine Jiang, didn't they also poke Empress Li's lungs?
If it weren't for Jiang Guogong's mansion, how could Empress Li allow Concubine Jiang to run rampant in the harem?
What He Zhaoyi seemed to be saying was that Concubine Jiang was disrespecting Empress Li by relying on Duke Jiang.

But to Empress Li, those words seemed to mean that Empress Li, as a queen, could not control Concubine Jiang.

A queen of a country cannot control her concubines. This is a derogation of her ability and status.

How could Queen Li be happy after hearing this?

Empress Li said expressionlessly: "Okay, stop bickering. Now that everyone is here, Shui Xiu, please tell them about the matter."

Shui Xiu responded, stood two steps forward, and then recounted what Eunuch Yang had said before in a serious manner.

As soon as Shui Xiu finished speaking, Queen Li handed over the stack of lists lying beside her: "The emperor asked Eunuch Yang to forward this to this palace. All the people in the palace recorded on it are related to this. You all can pass it on." Let's take a look and see if anyone in your palace is also up there!"

Shui Xiu neatly took the stack of lists and handed them over to Concubine Jiang.

Concubine Jiang yawned inconspicuously, took the list, looked at it, and threw it to the palace attendant beside her.

The palace man hurriedly handed the list to Concubine Wei Shu.

Wei Shufei flipped through it, her expression changed, and after reading it, she handed over the list.

After the list was circulated in everyone's hands, all the concubines in the room, except for Concubine Jiang, looked a little ugly.

When they arrived, they didn't expect that they would be called over by the Queen because of this matter.

Secondly, it's because those pieces of paper more or less have the names of one or two or more people in the palace.

In fact, to be honest, in the harem, issues like one or two sentences or a little attitude are not small, but they are not that big.
