Bearing the wrath of an Empress Dowager.

Zhan Yanhui decided to share a room with Consort Xi for the night so as not to attract any attention to herself. Consort Xi had even been the one to suggest the idea and Zhan Yanhuie had happily agreed. She hadn't had a good friend since she entered the palace and was officially labelled as the cold witch who had stolen the emperor's heart from the empress. All the noble ladies in the capital both feared and despised her so she had never gotten along with them. Now she had a friend whom cared for her and accompanied her during these hard times and Consort Xi was just the perfect person for it.

As they were busy laughing over the babies' movement in Consort Xi's belly on the bed, they suddenly heard a noise coming from outside which put them on alert. Zhan Yanhui got up to check on what was happening through the window and she saw guards leading the empress and the empress dowager on their way here. Consort Xi panicked. "Senior Sister Zhan, what are we going to do now?"
