I Won't Play Favorites

Empress Xiaogongren was furious.

Official histories compared her to Jiang Wu, the mother of Duke Zhuang of Zheng, and fabricated a story in which she told the ministers, when Yinzhen ascended the throne, that it was not what she wanted. This supposedly made the early years of his reign extremely difficult.

The final verdict was that her favoritism led to Yinzhen's early death and caused discord among the brothers.

Unofficial histories were even more blunt, claiming that her heart favored one son to an absurd degree, that she couldn't treat them fairly, and that she gave most of her affection to her youngest, nearly leaving her eldest to die of thirst.

Reborn once more, Empress Xiaogongren grits her back teeth. This time, she will show them what it means not to play favorites!

A little scene:

There is a rumor in the palace that Consort De has a little notebook containing all sorts of secrets and ways to win the emperor's favor. Whoever gets it can bring Consort De down and rule the harem alone, with the emperor all to herself.

So everyone tries their best to find it.

One day, the Fourteenth Prince is being mischievous and accidentally leaves the notebook in the imperial garden. The other consorts are lucky enough to find it, and they read it together.

X month, X day: Hugged the Fourteenth once. Owe Yinzhen one hug. (Paid back on X month, X day.)

X month, X day: Kissed the Fourteenth once. Owe Yinzhen one kiss. (Not paid back.)

X month, X day: Made a little tiger for the Fourteenth with my own hands. Owe Yinzhen one little tiger. (Not paid back.)
