Emperor Yan had been reviewing the memorials to the throne in Yangxin Hall until the morning court session. After the session was over, he heard the news that the Princess Consort of Jin had submitted her plaque to enter the palace to attend to an illness.
"Didn't I tell them not to enter the palace?" Last night, having had a nightmare, Emperor Yan hadn't slept well. Another dispute about establishing the Crown Prince arose within the court, and now hearing that Wufu came to the palace made his mood even worse.
Eunuch Lu cautiously said, "The command issued by His Majesty was for the prince not to enter the palace, but it did not mention the princess consort. As it is now the time when all officials have descended from court, everyone knows the princess consort is coming to attend to the illness. Your Majesty, should the princess consort be sent back?"
Emperor Yan sulkily waved his hand; the Princess Consort of Jin was also annoying.
