In the Capital, the imperial decree promoting Yu Pin to a higher rank had already been issued.
After the bestowal of the gold, she would be promoted to the rank of Consort.
Now, including the initial four Consorts and Noble Consort, and later Consort Liang, another Consort, Yu, was added to the mix.
Nowadays, many people secretly thought the Emperor's taste was really strange.
Consort De came from a low background, just a palace maid; Consort Liang's was even worse, a penal servant.
And now Consort Yu, a former actress and rumoured to be no virgin, could still be made a Consort?
It showed that in the Forbidden City these days, those of good birth seemed unpopular, while those of lowly birth were being promoted to Consort one after another.
Don't you see, Concubine Wang, who had given birth to three Princes, is still just a Concubine to this day.
Previously, when Yu Pin was promoted to the Consort Rank, no one in the palace really accepted it.
