The Two Ladies in the Capital: Admonishing the East Palace

Two concubines in the capital, one civilized and one military, have been fighting secretly for ten years, just for the phoenix crown and Xiapei. At the concubine selection banquet, Prince Murongze appointed Wu Shu and Mu Waner as the principal concubine for military power, while Wen Shu and Jiang Wanqing were relegated to the side concubine. From then on, the East Palace was filled with smoke. Jiang Wanqing is tall and sick, but she is very scheming. She repeatedly provokes just to force Mu Wan'er to make mistakes. Mu Wan'er seems careless, but in fact she is ruthless. She lectures in public, punishes the concubine with a stick, and kills chickens to scare the monkeys. After ascending to the throne, the concubines in the harem were fighting, and heirs, family, favor, and power were intertwined. Jiang Wanqing went from concubine to fourth concubine, and then to the queen, step by step, borrowing a knife to kill people; Mu Waner fell from the queen to the cold palace, and her former majesty was completely shattered. Emperor Murong Ze took in the harem just to balance the court, and ultimately favored Jiang Wanqing. However, he never said anything mercilessly and only protected her with actual promotion of the throne. He was scolded with a cane in public, stripped of the monthly rules, punished by kneeling down and copying women's precepts... Feng shui took turns, and the former admonisher became the one being admonished. This is a pure palace fight, without love, only a fight for power and dignity.
