The girls had already competed in the talent show a few days ago, and based on the three virtues and four moralities, they also took a basic exam, so today is the result of the selection.

  "Listen up, all the ladies in the harem. After comprehensive evaluation of various factors, the following names Im about to read out have been selected: Tong Xiangxi, daughter of the Minister of Works, has been promoted to Concubine; Zhou Yihuan, daughter of a Jiangsu salt merchant, has been promoted to Baolin; Jiang Fu, daughter of the Deputy Minister of History, has been promoted to Imperial Woman..."

  Jia Lian knelt on the ground, listening with increasing discomfort, her heart growing more and more anxious. Having heard several names in a row without hearing her own, she couldnt help but lose control of her emotions and interrupted the eunuchs announcement.

  "How come its still not my turn? What position have I been promoted to?"

  "How dare you! Who is it below? Didnt you see that the imperial edict has been issued?" Ji An scolded, he now had the support of the empress behind him and was very proud.

  Jia Ruiyan saw that even a small eunuch dared to shout at her, and she couldnt help but explode in anger, pointing at the eunuch and scolding: "You dog slave, how dare you yell at me? Are you tired of living?"

  "Think carefully about who is fed up with whom."

  Jia Lian raised her head to see that the noble Empress had already arrived in front of her, coldly staring at her. She couldnt help but feel a flutter in her heart and hastily lowered her eyes, bowing her head.

  "Who is she?" Yan Wu Xin pointed at Jia Li Xian with her slender fingers and asked Xue Rong.

  Xue Rong glanced at Jia Lian and respectfully said: "Your Majesty, it is the daughter of the Minister of Justice, Jia Lian."

  "Oh......," Yan Wu Xin pretended to be unaware and asked Jia Li Xian: "You are Jia Li Xian?"

  "Yes, Your Ladyship!"

  "You were originally a young lady from a wealthy family, Miss Jia listened patiently, and I had already given you a satisfactory title."

  "Hehe," Yan Wuxin smiled and instructed Ji An: "Continue reading!"

  Jia Lian clenched her teeth and patiently listened on, hearing several more names before finally hearing her own.

  Jia Lians daughter, Jia Yuanchun, was promoted to be a Beauty.

  "What?" Jia Lian exclaimed in surprise, her title was actually Mei Ren under the ninth pin, with her beauty how could she get such a low-level title, with her relationship with Chu Guos wife, at least she should be Zhao Yi in the ninth pin, why did Yan Xichuns title rank higher than hers.

  "What? Miss Jia, no, it should be Beauty Jia, youre not satisfied with the title I conferred upon you?" Yan Wuxin asked with a smiling face. She hadnt forgotten about the last time Fourth Sister fell into the water; this woman in front of her was too arrogant and needed to be taught a lesson or she would still dare to move against her people.

  "No, I wouldnt dare be dissatisfied with you, Your Ladyship." Jia Lians anger and discontent were suppressed as she spoke in a gentle and obedient tone.

  "Haha, no need to then, lets just thank our luck!" Yan Wuxin smiled complacently. In this harem, anyone who dared to compete with her would be seeking death, and she always had a way to retaliate.

  "Thank you for your kindness, Lady!" Jia Lianying knelt on the ground and gave a standard deep bow to Yan Nian.

  A tiger fallen into a plain is bullied by dogs, Jia Lixian thought resentfully in her heart, Yan Wuxin, wait until my aunt comes back, I will take back everything that belongs to me, and absolutely wont let you off lightly, Yan sisters.

  "Hmm, theres nothing more for me to attend to here, Im tired and need to go back and rest."

  Yan Wu Xin raised an eyebrow and said to Gong Nü Xue Rong, "Ill leave this matter for you to handle, Xue Lian. Help me back to the palace!"

  "Yes, Your Highness!" The palace maid called Xue Lian hastily supported Yan Wuxin as they left.

  "Alright, everyone get up! The selected imperial concubines have been granted titles and will be led back to their respective palaces by the female officials later. As for those who were not selected, you will stay here and someone will lead you away." Xue Rong said, looking at the group of imperial concubine candidates one by one.

  Before long, several female officials came, each holding a list and leading people away.
