Male Consort Upgrade System - C12 Congregations

After eating dinner, Yan Ge thought about the danger in the palace and decided to think about the strange upgrade system. Since staying in the palace was already a foregone conclusion, if he wanted to survive, he had to make some plans, maybe the system would really help him one day. When he thought of the system, a floating board appeared in front of him, with a few options on it. After studying it for a while, he realized that this system was somewhat similar to a game system. It had a taskbar, a skill bar, a bag, and a wallet. The quest bar prompted that the main quest and side quest would receive the appropriate rewards for each quest completed; the skill learning process would require a certain amount of silver taels to be opened, so there was no way of activating any skill or finding out what skill would be obtained; the rewards for completing the quest would be automatically stored in the backpack, which would allow him to double-click to obtain them; and his wallet would contain all the silver taels he had earned.

Yan Ge looked at the quest notification in his Mission Bar and directly ignored it. He then saw the two Poison Resistant Pills in his bag, and decided to eat one first. The System probably chose him not to die from the poison, so he was not worried about the illusion of the Hundred Poison Protection Pill. With a tap of his finger, there was one less pill in his bag, and the system notification chimed in. Yan Ge intentionally felt it, but did not have any special feeling, and did not know if the system was reliable or not.

Wan Xiang fanned Yan Ge from the side. Seeing him in a daze, Wan Xiang thought that he was bored and said: “Young master, in my opinion, out of the other three young masters, Zhou Sang is probably the one who isn’t easy to get along with.”

Yan Ge did not comment. He was not a gossipy person, and would not chat with a little girl. But he didn’t mind Wan Xiang gossiping about him. Maybe there really was some useful information in there.

Not long after, a imperial edict suddenly came to the Hall of Spring Wind to pass down a decree.

The four people staying in the Hall of Spring Wind hurriedly went to the front courtyard to listen to the order.

“Send the imperial concubine’s imperial decree that a grand feast will be held tomorrow at noon at the Hundred Blossom Hall to celebrate Hee Xin’s entry into the palace. All the concubines will raise their cups to celebrate with you!”

“Thank you for the empress’s grace!”

Yan Ge thought that since the Empress had set the time for the banquet to be at noon, he was afraid that the Emperor would also attend when the time came. However, he wasn’t worried at all. Among the new young masters, there were many that were outstandingly talented. No matter what, he wouldn’t be the first to be noticed by the Emperor. But then again, this was a good opportunity to get a feel for the enemy.

The next day, an hour before noon, Wan Xiang and Xiao Chuanzi made their preparations. Yan Ge immediately picked out the simplest clothes and the most ordinary crown. Thinking that it was about time, she went over to Worthy Lady Soong. The four male consort s departed for the Hundred Flowers Hall together.

Each concubine lived in a different palace. As they neared the Hundred Flowers Hall, the four of them came across other concubines. These concubines only had two or three servants with them, or a large group of people. When meeting someone with a higher position, Yan Ge would meticulously bow to them and make way, trying his best not to make any conspicuous movements. Occasionally, a high ranking concubine would cast a disdainful or hostile gaze, but he pretended not to know. Today’s banquet was hosted by the empress. Perhaps the emperor would attend as well. No one dared to cause any trouble.

After all the concubines entered the Hundred Flowers Hall, they only felt the fragrant scent of flowers assail their nostrils and the sound of bamboo entered their ears. Under the guidance of their aunt, they sat down according to their position. The higher the score, the closer the seat was to the top. The seat of honor was still empty. Neither the Emperor nor the Empress had arrived.

Moments later, the eunuch’s voice could be heard from outside, “Esteemed Empress has arrived —”

All the concubines stood up to welcome him.

In a moment, a young woman wearing a phoenix crown, supported by the arms of a eunuch, slowly walked over. The woman wore a phoenix coronet and was wearing a light gold dress. As she walked, the emerald jade on the crown glimmered, the jewel tassels flickered, and even the phoenix on the skirt flapped its wings as it flew. Her graceful and elegant demeanor was incomparable to that of a mother. This person was the current Empress of the dynasty, the Duanmu clan.

When the empress was seated, the consorts usually saluted her together, but this time the consorts, at the behest of the eunuchs, saluted her in turn. First came the fourth concubine, then the sixth concubine, then the noble, then the delicate, and so on. This was to let all the concubines know each other. Yan Ge watched silently as he memorized everything one by one. The Huangfu Dynasty had experienced seven generations, and could establish a imperial concubine, a second imperial concubine, a fourth imperial concubine, a sixth concubine, and so on. However, neither the late emperor nor the current emperor had imperial concubines or imperial concubines. male consort was a fixed number, regardless of the ranking, there were only four people in total.

The empress continued to smile and confer seating according to batch.

Just bowing to the empress had taken two hours, and the number of concubines could be seen.

After the ceremony, the empress said, “Today is a joyous day for the imperial harem. Originally, the emperor wanted to come as well, but he was tripped by a big matter in the imperial court. “However, in the future, when all my younger sisters and brothers have the chance to meet the Emperor, there’s no need to be in such a rush.” From the sound of it, the female voice that appeared during the Emperor’s last selection was indeed that of a queen.

Although the imperial concubines were disappointed, they didn’t express it. They just said it all out loud.

Yan Ge secretly sized up all the consorts and sighed in his heart. He counted a total of thirty-four new concubines. Even if the emperor changed his concubines every night, he would not repeat them every month. It was truly a blessing in disguise. There was no need to mention the male consort, all the female consorts were naturally beautiful, especially Tian Xi. She was the most beautiful of all the concubines, even surpassing the Empress in terms of looks. Even the empress looked at her a few times.

The empress then continued, “Only those with outstanding family background and moral character can live in the harem. It is a great fortune for all younger sisters and brothers to be chosen among the thousands of people in the kingdom. However, I govern the harem and seek harmony. Only when the imperial harem was harmonious would the emperor be able to rule the imperial government without any worries. I hope that my sisters and younger brothers will take care of themselves and clean themselves up. Only in the future will we be able to open branches and scatter leaves for the emperor. ”

All the concubines rose to their feet and called out in unison, “Your concubines/Attendant will definitely remember Empress’s words.”

The empress gave a dignified smile and said with a nod, “That’s great. Lin, let’s begin.”
