Noble Consort Shu when had birthed Zhao Zhang Wei she had been granted a few shops and some land in the Imperial City by the Emperor.
This was something that was new in the history of Xin.
Before Noble Consort Shu, there never had been a woman in the Imperial Palace except Empress or Empress Dowager who could have anything under her that could support her financially.
Because those women in the harem were supposed to depend completely on the Emperor.
They were powerless.
However, when the Emperor granted all these things to Noble Consort Shu, it had been talked about in the Empire for a long time.
With time, the whole Xin came to know that Noble Consort Shu was the Emperor's favored concubine. Even the Empress couldn't stand against her…that's how much power Noble Consort Shu held in the Imperial Palace.
