Listening to the ladies talking all about how their own daughters could be fit to become concubines, Lin Jingxian felt inexplicably irritated. She would never admit that she had taken a liking to Ye Qiu; it must be a matter of status.
A concubine is not the same as a low ranked concubine, one would need to wear the Royal Jade Butterfly. She cannot be sold off at will. Besides, even though Ye Qiu is easily persuaded, that doesn't mean a concubine would be, what if she finds out something amiss about her?
While Lin Jingxian listened to everyone's conversations, she dutifully expressed that she would follow Ye Qiu's wishes, but in fact, she was quite confident that as long as she spoke up and showed some willingness to yield, Ye Qiu would definitely not agree to take a concubine.
Today, there aren't many people eyeing the position of Ye Qiu's concubine, but more are looking at the status of Eldest Prince Ye Ke's main wife.
