The year passed very swiftly.
Before one could react, it was already the fourth day of the lunar year, and no one visited the palace to offer New Year's greetings anymore.
Ye Zao was still so exhausted that she collapsed onto the soft couch. One still had to pay one's respects in the morning.
"The Imperial Decree has arrived!" Outside, it was the voice of Su Wanfu.
Ye Zao was helped up to receive the decree, "This concubine receives the decree."
The Imperial Decree was a promotion, and at the same time, Consort Qi also received the decree, delivered by Li Ankang.
Both of them were promoted to the rank of Guipin.
Over at Noble Lady Xi's quarters, she also received a decree, being promoted to Xi Pin and to move into the main hall on a selected date.
Noble Lady Geng, who shared her residence, wasn't left out either. Fourth Master had granted her a title, Noble Lady Yu.
Moving down the ranks, Yun Changzai was promoted to Noble Lady Yun.
