Inner Palace: Concubine Ranks
This is a glossary of concubine ranks used in this novel. I have combined various titles across dynasties, mixing and matching according to what sounds good and is easier to write in English. So please don't refer to any of this as history (actually, please don't refer to anything in this novel as history, I can't even begin to stress how much of an AU it is...^^;;).
In terms of who is holding what position at the moment, I have only added the ones who have appeared in the story so far. As time goes by, I will increase the detail, so feel free to check back every time you get confused!
