Turmoil In The Palace. (Huahua)
Turmoil.
The turmoil starts during Emperor Chu Liang's reign, during his second half of life when he marries a humble woman and makes her a concubine.
An emperor has many women in his harem, yet because of her beauty and pure heart she becomes Emperor Chu's most loved woman.
At a short time after she enters the royal family, she gets pregnant. This event attracts the envy of many consorts and ladies from the harem, even the Empress Chixi's jealousy.
Empress Chixi tries several times to hurt concubine Zhao and her unborn child but every attempt fails.
The empress was afraid that concubine Zhao will give birth to a son and that may put in danger the crown prince's position (the crown prince was only three years old at that time).
Finally, after nine months, concubine Zhao gives birth to twins.
When Empress Chixi forcibly enters the delivery chamber, she finds out that concubine Zhao has given birth to a healthy baby girl.
Seeing that, she calms down and her fury momentarily disappears.
