Normal pov's.

"H-servant was only shocked by the arrival of His Majesty, Unexpectedly an Emperor was willing to set foot into this simple place" explained Jia who was still nervous.

While Liang had already occupied the seat where Jia had been sitting.

"Your Majesty, this place is safe" Cheng reported. Liang responded by nodding and having Cheng stand guard outside.

"Miss Li sit down don't just stand up!" Liang's orders.

"Good noble" Reply Jia sat in an empty chair. Now they are back in their seats.

"What exactly did you mean by coming here?" Ask Huan who is still concerned about the arrival of her brother.

"I just want to visit my sword?" Said Origin Liang while staring at Jia.

"Sword? Brother got a sword here?" Ask Jing.

"Of course, her sword is very beautiful" Reply Liang who is still considered ambiguous by others.

"So you're not clear" Rfor Jing was upset.

"Isn't Miss Li like a pretty sword"

Silent.

"What?" The three people were shocked.

Cheng who heard a loud noise from inside the room immediately went inside, but after seeing nothing happened he went back outside.

"So don't joke around" said Huan who looked annoyed.

Liang replied with a small ruckus.

"I'm not kidding Prince Huan. I will even raise Miss Li as the 6th concubine" Liang explained calmly.

Jia who heard that immediately knelt down in front of Liang.

"Your Majesty can you withdraw that, I do not deserve to be a noble concubine and after all my brother has become your concubine" Jia refused still kneeling.

"Right sister, you can't just raise Jia to be a concubine" Jing exclaimed, she strongly disagreed with her brother's decision. Jing also knew very well the situation in Harem, how the fate of Jia later there.

"Hoho Sunguh Miss Jia is very great supported by two handsome princes" Puji Liang grinned.

"Your Majesty please let me refuse" Please Jia who is now prostrating.

'No, if I became a concubine it would add more danger to my family. After all being with a concubine indirectly I opened the gates of hell myself' Guma Jia in Heart.

"You know the punishment for those who refuse the Emperor's orders" threatened Liang.

"And that goes for you too" Liang continued as he pointed at Huan and Jing.

"Your Majesty" said Jia who was still begging.

"Think, tomorrow there will be people coming to your residence. If you refuse the person will give the punishment on my orders" Seletah said that Liang immediately returned to the palace.

"Miss Jia wake up" Invite Huan to help Jia to get up from her prostration. He cleaned up the dirt stuck to the girl's yellow Hanfu.

"Jia, do you know what it means to be the Emperor's concubine?" Ask Jing.

"That means we open the gates of hell" Guma Jia suffocated. Huan helped her sit up and tried to support Jia's limp body.

"Jia I'll help you escape" suggested Jing impassively.

"True, we will help you, however, we already call you sister" added Huan confident.

Jia.

"No, if I run away both you and my family will be punished by the Emperor. I can't harm many people" Jia refused.

Jia was like standing on a cliff surrounded by a ravine. He has no other choice.

"Then will Miss Jia accept it? " Tanya Huan's.

"Do I have any other choice?" Jia asked back.

While the news of Jia Li being appointed as a concubine was spread inside the Palace. The three concubines, Consort Meng, Consort Feng and Consort Hua, were talking about it.

"So shall we let Second Miss Li become a concubine?" Asked Concubine Feng growled.

"I wish it could, but the Emperor's orders are absolute" Consort Hua added.

"Damn it" Bumpat Concubine Meng threw the glass she had been holding into the pool below them.

"Currently, I won't let her live happily here" Consort Meng's house said.

Soon Consort Meng left the other two concubines in the Gazebo, she walked towards her residence.

The entire Li residence was thrown into an uproar with the news Jia brought.

"Then will Miss accept?" Mei asked worriedly, Jia saw the anxiety that Uncle Bai aimed at Mei's tone.

"If I refuse the Emperor will kill everyone near me" Jia explained limply.

Other maids also expressed their anxiety about who did not know the rumors circulating in the harem.

"Miss does miss know the rumors in the harem?" Ask aunt Fei.

"Which rumor?" Jia asked who actually knew the rumors.

"Rumor why the emperor only had five concubines while each minister always put forward their daughters. Bibi heard this while working in the palace, said first concubine Miss Lian Meng who we know is the prime minister's son always harassing, threatening, and even harming the prospective concubine" explained Aunt Fei.

"Right Miss, I heard Miss from the South was even poisoned by Consort Meng before her appointment. Miss Yang's parents couldn't do anything because they were threatened by the prime minister, so they just brought Miss Yang back to be treated" May added.

"I don't think Consort Meng would have done that to me given this direct order from the emperor" Jia said, though she was very self-conscious but she tried to calm down her servant.

"Miss let us come to the palace!" Pinta Ni'ang kneeling.

"True Miss" added Mei and Aunt Fei who were on their knees.

"I can't harm you, you better stay here guarding my residence and Ni'ang you guard my Night Flower Shop" Jia ordered.

"But... " Sangah Mei.

"No, I don't want you to come with me. Besides, at the palace there's Miu. And if you come along who will take care of my residence and the tavern" Jia explained.

The three of them remained silent but nodded.

"Ah I'm hungry" Jia said.

"Miss wait here I'll cook" Reply Aunt Fei.

The three men left Jia alone in her yard.

While the Lili residence was in an uproar with the arrival of the Emperor.

"Your Majesty the emperor" Welcomed Consort Li and Consort Ying who were in Lili's residence.

"Stand up" said Liang. He immediately occupied the main place followed by the two concubines.

"Your Majesty is it true that the appointment of the Servant's sister as concubine?" Ask Liu Li.

"Are you not happy?" Reply Liang sharply.

Consort Li immediately knelt down.

"Of course not your honor. Instead this became an honor for the Li family" Sangah Consort Li was terrified.

"Good, I can't believe the response of the Li sisters is very different" Liang said with a sharp grin.

Consort Ying had squeezed her pink hanfu, she did not expect the two Li brothers to be in the Concubine's position.

"Your Majesty's servant gave a suggestion, what if the servant's sister is also appointed as a concubine" Consort Ying advised.

Liang seemed to think, there was no harm either. After all, Consort Ying was from the west, whose strength almost matched that of the Prime Minister.

"Hmm, then they will be lifted together. Concubine Ying immediately called your father to have him send Second Miss Ying" Liang's orders, Liang immediately left the two of them.

"Sister what do you mean by suggesting His Majesty so?" Ask Consort Li.

"You are so innocent my sister, you know that with the arrival of two more members we can indirectly overthrow the evil concubine Meng" explained Fung Ying happily.

Right, with the arrival of two more members their strength could match Consort Meng.

Meanwhile, the Orchid residence sounds of broken goods interconnected. The servants no one dared to approach Concubine Meng who was on a rampage. Hearing Consort Ying's younger sister also being raised made Consort Meng a bit of a fidelity.
