When Gu Lingrou entered the palace, because she was from a lowly family and refused to curry favor with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, her concubine, who was attached to the queen, deducted a lot of money and was even punished by kneeling in the snow in the imperial garden in winter.
* Gu Lingrou calculated the time for the emperor to go down to court, and deliberately knelt in the snow wearing a thin white dress, like a white plum that was about to wither.
* She did not cry in front of the emperor, but instead held up her sick body to excuse Qi's concubine: "It's my concubine who is stupid and made my sister angry. I don't blame her." Then she fainted in the emperor's arms "just in time".
* The emperor's protectiveness and masculinity were instantly aroused. That night, Gu Lingrou was promoted to a noble person, and Qi concubine was demoted and moved to a remote palace.
