“It was precisely mentioned by the cabinet ministers previously, and at present, naturally still haven’t been put down completely.” When mentioning this matter, Ming Jinrou’s expression was still relaxed, seemingly as if she completely didn’t have herself viewed as someone already at the heart of the struggle in the battle for the throne, and as if the disputes in court regarding the crown prince position was unrelated to her, “Going back and forth, it’s nothing more than just the matter of whether it’s establishing the di or the establishing the worthy, but no matter what, there’s no argument for establishing the eldest. There’s all kinds of sayings outside, and it’s even more chaotic in the palace. Even Shun Concubine’s matters back then when she was still alive all got dug out by them. Our family’s dumb goose is still fine though, not really taking it too seriously, still mostly discussing with my older brother and them about the defense in the capital.”

Yu Lingxin’s expression couldn’t help but pause for a moment. Shun Concubine was Qin Wang’s birth mother, originally coming from a songstress background, so truly very low. Just, her beauty was peerless. Back then, she was personally picked by Empress Wen to serve Xuan Emperor, probably for the sake of dividing Li Consort’s favor. Afterwards, she sure enough got pregnant very quickly, even giving birth to Qin Wang. Just, the heavens were unfair, not blessing with a long life. When Qin Wang was less than three, Shun Concubine, who at the time was still just a sixth rank beauty, died of illness. When getting buried, she’d only gotten raised by one rank, using the burial standards of a noble lady, her posthumous title just the character ‘Shun'[1].

As for this high fourth rank Shun Concubine posthumous title, it was only conferred afterwards when Qin Wang came of age at fifteen. It can be seen just how low her status was, as well as how that peerless beauty didn’t win much favor from Xuan Emperor.

To bring up the past of the deceased Shun Concubine, who has passed away for more than a decade, at this time now, what good things can be said, wasn’t it just for the sake of belittling Qin Wang? Yet, this was also the most difficult thing to refute for Qin Wang. After all, Shun Concubine’s low birth was an indisputable fact. And Qin Wang himself has no knowledge of the past affairs in those years when his birth mother was still alive, so regardless of what others say, he can only silently endure.
