The cold wind is biting, and the snowflakes are beating against the vermilion walls of the Forbidden City in Nanjing. The atmosphere inside Wuying Hall was more stagnant and colder than the cold weather outside the hall. The smell of incense candles mixed with faint weeping filled the huge space. One of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's concubines who followed him in his early years and who was not very prominent but also gave birth to a prince passed away, so the spiritual shu temporarily stayed here.
According to the etiquette system, the prince must keep vigil for his concubine's mother to show his filial piety and royal propriety. At this moment, the young princes Zhu Feng of Qin, Zhu Fang of Jin, and other princes, under the guidance of the chamberlain, were dressed in plain clothes and kneeling on the futons on both sides of the soul. Their faces were all pale from the cold, but they did not dare to move at all.
