Consort...!
She went to see her father...
Chu Qiu
Father...*surprised to see Chu Mei*
Chu Qiu
Greetings Aunt-Concubine...
Chu Mei
Oh Qiu...my niece...don't do formalities...we are family...
Chu Qiu
Thank you Aunt-concubine...
Chu Mei
*Aunt Concubine...?!?!*
Chu Tang
Well Qiu...where's your mother...we all need to discuss a serious matter...
Chu Qiu
Uh...Yes Father...I'll call her ri-
Chu Tang
Ah...Tanyi...I was about to call for you...
Chu Tanyi
Is there anything serious to discuss...?
Chu Tang
Yes...there is...
Chu Tang
I probably should call Mother too...
Chu Qiu
Well I didn't introduce my grandma...she's Madam Chu...her favourite son was...both my father and his brother...yes she isn't a snake...but she isn't brave enough to see through my fake step relatives...they tried to give me a bad image but...you know...my mother didn't trained me to get trapped...
Madam Chu
You called for me...?
Chu Tang
Mother...I've something to discuss with you all...
Chu Tang
It's about Mei and Miao...
Chu Tang
You know...how Mei ended up being my concubine and Miao my daughter...right...
Chu Tang
Well...it led to a big trouble for all of us...
Chu Tang
Miao is my eldest daughter in front of all the people including the Emperor...and he thinks she is perfect to be a Consort...
Chu Tang
There's one trouble...as she's a concubine's daughter in everyone's eyes...she can only be a concubine...!
Chu Miao
What...no...how...
Madam Chu
Don't interfere...
Chu Tang
So...I have to increase Mei's rank...as my Consort...
Madam Chu
Tang...do you realize what you are saying...?
Chu Tang
I'm well aware mother...you know...Miao look forward to be his highness' consort the least...
Chu Qiu
Well...let me explain the rank system of harem...
Chu Qiu
For an Emperor...
Empress
Wives
Consorts
Concubines...
Chu Qiu
And each have different ranks...except for the Empress...if the Empress passes away...the consort just below her will become the substitute Empress...or the one the officials choose and Empress Dowager agrees...
Chu Qiu
Well most likely the Imperial Noble Consort...
Chu Qiu
Through this...we can understand why she want to be a Consort...
Madam Chu
Well...it's not appropriate...you know...she is not your concubine...she was your brother's wife...
Chu Tang
Mother...it's for my brother's child...
Chu Tang
Tanyi...Mei...my children...let me talk to my mother privately...
Chu Qiu
Well I should hear it...
Chu Tang
Mother...the crown prince asks for Qiu...to be his crown princess...!
Madam Chu
What...I can't agree...he...he...
Chu Tang
I know...a womanizer...I can't risk her life...
Madam Chu
So you want your brother's daughter to get trapped...?
Chu Tang
Did I say that...it's her who kept on forcing me to talk to the Emperor...
Madam Chu
That girl...if that's her wish...talk to Tanyi...
Chu Tang
She knows...she agreed last night...
Madam Chu
If it's like that...do as you wish...
The next day...Mei was promoted as Consort...
Chu Mei
Well...thank you brother...and sister...
Chu Miao
I'm a consort's daughter now...?
