Zhu Bifeng continued to review memorials at his desk, and only raised his head to rest when it was dusk.
Zhu Bifeng had to review as many as 150 memorials every day. Sometimes he could not finish reviewing them during the day and had to continue reviewing them at night.
Guo Jia came forward holding the green card and bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty, please turn over the card."
Zhu Beifeng kicked it and the green cards scattered all over the ground.

"You asked me to flip the cards, and I did."

It would have been fine if he had just handed over the sign, but he also deliberately placed Concubine Chen's sign in the very center.

"The Emperor said that Concubine Chen's green card is broken and needs to be removed."
"Head Steward, should we remove Concubine Chen's green badge and make a new one?"
"The emperor didn't say to make a new one, he just said to remove it. You can figure it out yourself. We still have to serve."
After Shuangxi relayed the emperor's instructions, he returned to the imperial study to continue his work.
