"Concubine Chen's father holds a high position of power, and Concubine Chen covets the position of empress. The Chen family's ambitions are far too great. What does the emperor say?"
"The Emperor hasn't said what to do with Concubine Chen yet. The imperial doctors are busy treating Concubine Mei's injuries. The Emperor has to handle government affairs while also taking care of Concubine Xi Jiao."

"Why, this yam cake isn't made by a vendor?"
"This yam cake was made by the vendor after your father put a knife to his neck."
"Bring a knife when buying cakes, good idea, I'll do the same in the future."
“You won’t be able to buy it anymore.”
"Why?"
"The vendor selling yam cakes moved overnight."
