The Dowager and Her Son's Rise from the Cold Palace

On their wedding night, he abandons her to an empty bridal chamber for the sake of his favorite concubine, making her a laughingstock. She endures it.

When she is deposed and banished to the Cold Palace, she accepts it.

But when he tries to take the heart's blood of their own son to save that cruel woman, she can endure no more!

She snaps her shackles and cries out through her tears of blood: "Since you have no mercy, don't blame me for showing none! Whoever harms my son will be buried with the whole world!"
