Capítulo 894: Chapter 897: Hoping to Beco a mber of the Harem
“Reporting to the Empress, the wives of various officials are seeking an audience outside the palace. This servant cos to ask whether to let them in or not.”
Su Yan asked in confusion, “What have they co for?”
“Presumably to offer their congratulations to Your Highness.”
Su Yan frowned, “Why was there no prior notification to ?”
Previously, Su Yan used to refer to herself as ‘I’ because she wasn’t accustod to the self-reference as ‘This Palace’. However, in front of servants, maintaining a minimum level of authority was necessary.
Especially in front of those servants she wasn’t familiar with.
The nanny hesitated and said, “Yesterday, so wives sent their invitations, saying they would co today…
According to custom, on the third day after the Empress’s wedding, it is customary to receive the worship and congratulations of the wives…”
Su Yan understood. Yesterday, she and Chu Yuxiao had stayed inside the room all day, so no one dared to inform her. Thus, the people below didn’t know whether to allow or disallow.
But those wives adhered to the rules and ca anyway.
“Since it is customary, let them co in. Send a few relevant palace maids to attend to them.”
“Yes, this servant will handle it imdiately.”
After the nanny left, Su Yan returned to her bedroom and dressed herself up again, more formally and elegantly than before.
Almost every official in the Capital City who held a position brought their wives.
So even brought their daughters, aged between five and fifteen or sixteen. So were brought to gain experience, so were relatives who were supposed to co pay respects, and so…
Su Yan sat at the main seat, smilingly watching the won sitting properly below, and gently said:
“It’s rare for everyone to be gathered here today; please stay and have a al before returning.”
The won below maintained their smiles and nodded.
Most showed expressions of delight because so had brought their daughters, hoping to catch the Emperor’s eye, wishing he might take a liking to their daughters.
It’s said the Emperor has a penchant for males.
Now that he has married an Empress, it indicates he still prefers won.
Since he likes won, his harem should be populated, thus requiring many won.
Therefore, their daughters might have a chance to beco part of the harem…
