Normal pov's.

There is a time that is expected by many people except the two people who in fact the main actor.

"Miu, is this not excessive?" Jia asked while struggling to get out of the dressing room. Red Hanfu with gold thread attached to her body. Jia did not hate the red color just the weight of hanfu that Jia had to wear it.

"Madamu today you will be the emperor's concubine not a commoner's concubine" explained Miu slightly comforted by Jia's behavior this morning.

"alright. Miu what do you think of Xiao Ying?" Jia asked as she stood up for Miu.

"According to Madam's servant, she was nothing but a lonely child and wanted freedom. Servants have also heard that the second Miss Ying was born to a lowly concubine and during her childhood she was always ostracized and her family always arranged everything about her" Miu explained, Her hands began to put on hair ornaments.

"I feel the same way. Can Xiao be our ally?" Jia asked, she always asked Miu for advice because Miu has a sharp instinct.

"Making Miss Xiao an ally, I don't think it's a problem either. Considering she also hates her brother indirectly she can be our ally plus yesterday's incident" Miu explained how she felt. Finally the last decoration he managed to install, now the Nyonya is ready.

"Thank you Miu" said Jia, who looked at her reflection in the mirror with sparkling eyes.

Before long a eunuch told Jia to immediately head for the Empress's residence. Yep, his appointment will be carried out at the residence of the Empress.

"Come Miu!" Jia said, she received Miu's hand.

As they exited the gate of his residence, they crossed paths with Liu Li.

"Your sister is beautiful" Liu praised, she was so amazed to see her sister.

"Thank you big brother" Reply Jia with a sweet smile.

"Let's get to the destination" Take Liu with Jia's hand, they must not be late because the Empress is very fond of delays.

Now that the hall in the Empress's residence had been decorated in such a way, several concubines had arrived, such as Meng's concubine Hua and her own brother.

"Sister Jia" Call Xiao in the back.

Both of Li's sisters turned towards the source of the voice.

"Xiao? are you that?" Jia asked in disbelief.

Now a beautiful girl was standing before them, in the same Hanfu color as Jia.

"Sister Li you're so pretty today?" Praise Liu who followed fascinated.

"Thank you big brother Liu for his praise" Reply Xiao.

Liu immediately headed to his place to sit down, he gave space for his sister to chat for a while with Xiao. She was also startled at first when she received news from Wui that her sister would be allied with Xiao Ying.

"Xiao, are you okay?" Jia asked who saw that worried look on her face.

"Sister Jia, you know what it's like this morning I almost killed myself if I don't remember what you said last night" Xiao said.

"Smile, even if today is not what you expected but it's your big day" Jia replied trying to improve Xiao's mood.

Soon the Empress arrived and several other concubines had all come. The rapture ceremony will begin soon.

Jia and Xiao kneeled before the empress. A eunuch gave a scroll that was believed to be a rapture order.

"Jia Li, the second son of General Li, listen to the Emperor's orders! With the order given to me by the Emperor, Jia Li, you are appointed as the 6th Consort, hear the title of Consort Li" said the Empress.

After the rapture the participants who attended some were happy, but some were upset and angry.

After the rapture, the party was now held at the Empress's residence, a festive party that was already lively added after Liang's arrival. Some concubines were busy fixing their makeup while Jia and Xiao were still busy looking for a comfortable position to sit in.

Liang settled himself next to the Empress and Queen Mother. Some dancers begin to move their bodies in rhythm with the music.

'Ck, it feels like I've been noticed' Guma Jia in my heart, because she was like she was burned by someone's hot gaze.

Before long the dancers finished their dance, now where the concubines showed their prowess. Not to forget this event is one of the activities where the concubines will try to drop each other.

"Your Majesty I want to give you advice! What if the next show is done by our new brother" Consort Meng said with a sly smile.

"Your advice is very good concubine Meng, I think I also want to see the appearance of the New concubines" said the Queen Mother who was curious about the talent of the new concubine. She's not the evil type of queen mother but she wants her son's concubines to be talented girls.

Liu and Fung thought hard to defend their sister. Because both Jia and Xiao, they could not dance, play music, sweep and other skills related to women.

'Damn you concubine Meng I'll give you back' Rfor Jia. He immediately walked before the three people and knelt down.

"His Majesty the Emperor, Empress and Queen Mother. Honestly, my servant and younger sister Ying cannot have skills related to women" Jia said, giving a pause to see another expression.

His sister stared worriedly and while Meng looked at him demeaningly.

"But we can perform martial arts with musical accompaniment" Jia continued confidently.

Xiao followed Jia to his knees as well.

"Right, we could show it. If Your Majesty is the emperor, the Empress and the Queen Mother allow us to display it" Xiao added.

'It was fortunate that I had time to learn martial arts and that big brother Jia had already told me about this event' Gratitude Xiao in the day.

"Interesting, well we will grant Permission" Liang said. He wanted to see the appearance of his beautiful sword.

The two concubines rushed to the back to replace their clothes with lighter ones.

Then they entered the room again. The audience there was briefly fascinated by the appearance of the two girls.

A eunuch gave them an item they would use. Jia used a wooden sword while Xiao used a wooden spear.

The music began to go, Slowly but surely they began to move their bodies.

After agreeing Jia and Xiao displayed a one-on-one fight but wrapped in a beautiful dance.

Liu and Fung slowly breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of their younger brother who had managed to escape from the trap of concubine Meng. While concubine Meng, concubine Feng and concubine Hua looked furious, they did not expect that Jia and Xiao could amaze the Emperor, Empress and Empress Dowager.

Several times Jia and Xiao banged their weapons and made a sound that rhymed with music.

Their appearances were closed with each of them bringing the weapon closer to their opponent's neck.

"I didn't think anyone had this kind of talent. Right Empress?" Praise the Queen three times.

"You're right, Queen Mother, I also did not expect the surprise given by the New Concubines"

"Thank you for the compliment Your Majesty" said Bebarengan Jia and Xiao who had kneeled down.

After getting the chance to sit back down, they immediately rushed over. Each of the servants gave drinks and wiped the crackers from their mistress.

The show went on with several appearances from the concubine.

Come at the end of the show. Liang stood up from his seat and started staring at Xiao.

"Tonight I want the 7th Concubine to serve me"
