Li Chenjiao got along well with the other concubines, but the atmosphere in the main courtyard was as tense as ever. The Third and Eighth Concubines made a lot of fun about the fact that the First Concubine had fallen a while ago.
The Fujin (Prince Consort) was outnumbered, especially with the addition of the Ninth Fujin who echoed the Eighth Fujin. By the end of the day, the Fujin was quite angry, and even after everyone had gone home that night, she still had a grim expression on her face.

She laughed for no apparent reason, then looked at the canopy above her head and fell asleep without realizing it.
