Concubine Xin stared at the eyes of Concubine Lan.

"Empress Xiaoxian was defeated by Empress Huixian, and our queen was defeated by Concubine Chun and Concubine Shujia. Now... the princess of Manchu families in our palace are tied together, and they are not as good as those of the Xinzheku who is over thirty years old and half-old Xu Mother!"

"The emperor would rather call a thirty-year-old slave in the Han surname Xinzheku, one a year; he would not give us young Emanuch princesses with a higher family background and bloodline at all... I was so angry! Not only for myself, but also for the other sisters from the Manchu family?"

The eyes of Concubine Lan also showed a cold light. Although she was young, she was born with the sense of superiority of her bloodline and origin. How could she accept that the most humble family background and origin are so unsurpassable in the harem?

Concubine Xin quietly looked at Concubine Lan's expression, and the corners of her lips curled up gently with satisfaction.

But she hid the smile very quickly, and her eyes were filled with sadness and sympathy.

"Sister Lan, I still have two princesses, and even if I can't fight, I can still feel comforted; even if I get old, I still have a way out."

Concubine Xin raised her eyes and looked straight at Concubine Lan, and said slowly, "Sister Lan, where are you? You are still a junior in our Empress Dowager's family. It has been almost a year since you entered the palace. Have you ever been favored by the emperor?"

"Sister Lan, you are the elder of the Empress Dowager's family. Your family has also been born in the Empress Dowager Xiaozhaoren and Concubine Wenxi, as well as Prince Guo's concubine... Your family background is originally above Empress Xiaoxian. With your family background and your blood relationship with the Empress Dowager, you should have been favored when you enter the palace. At least, like I am Shufei, you should be granted a concubine when you enter the palace."

"But Sister Lan, you have been in the palace for almost a year... but you are still in the position of noble people. Even in Jingren's palace, you have to be on par with a noble person in your thirties. Sister Lan himself is not wronged, I will be wronged for Sister Lan!"

Tears were immediately filled with tears in her eyes. Even if she could hold back these words, she could still feel humiliated by others when she was revealed and she said it out loud!

Xinpin sighed again, reached out and grabbed the hand of Concubine Lan, "...We all introduced the Eight Banners girls since we were fourteen years old. My sister participated in the selection for twenty-one years, and that year was a good year at the age of fourteen. But the emperor didn't even call her sister to come to the palace that year, and asked her sister to wait for a whole year, and she didn't enter the palace in June of the 22nd year."

"It's okay to be a year late for entering the palace. After all, it's time to be granted a concubine directly. But the emperor still hasn't... Now, my sister is sixteen, and two years of good years have been delayed. Now the emperor has no favor to her sister and no promotion. Where is she going to place her sister and where is her family background?"

Concubine Lan left with tears in her eyes, and was sobbing that she couldn't speak.

Xinpin sighed again, "Nothing else, this time the emperor went to visit the tomb, and his sister was the newest newcomer in the palace. So the emperor should have taken her sister with him-but the emperor still left her sister in the palace, and instead brought the nobleman in his thirties together!"

"Let's not talk about how many noble people are from Erut Mongolia. Just looking at her age, how could she have never married outside the palace? She and your sister, you entered the palace together, and you live in another palace. Why does the emperor think that she is better than Sister Lan?"
