Whistling Autumn Wind

In the first episode, Little Palace Maid Lian Hua, holding tea leaves, thought to curry favor with Zhaoyi. The Emperor intercepted her halfway, and before she could react, he hijacked her tea leaves, leaving her bewildered.
In the second episode, she wanted to curry favor with the Noble Consort. During the Noble Consort's birthday feast, she hadn't even presented the meticulously prepared tea leaves before the Emperor seized them, leaving her aggrieved.
In the third episode, she had just sneaked out with the Palace Maids to pick bamboo shoots, planning to go back and cook something delicious when the Emperor burst out of nowhere wanting to freeload a meal. If it wasn't tasty, he would punish her, she managed to barely pass muster by exerting all her energy. Before she could feel relieved, the Emperor told her he was also staying to sleep!
This time, he was thoroughly taking advantage of her, enjoying free food and lodging without the slightest intention of rewarding her.
At night, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. All the silver she had saved up in earlier years had been used to sustain the Emperor. Now that the money was gone, she feared being punished for not being able to support him in the future. The more she thought, the sadder she got, her tears plopping down, which woke the Emperor sleeping beside her.
In a flurry, the Emperor consoled her, "There, there, don't cry, don't cry. I haven't even had time to reward you, how could I punish you!"
After much consoling, and finally with his promise to provide for her sustenance, she turned her tears into laughter.
The Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. This Little Concubine would need to be favored properly from now on—he dared not make her cry again.

Palace Fighting: Naive Concubines' Ascent to Power

Noble Consort gazed blankly at the Emperor; such vibrant demeanor was something she had never seen before. It made her feel as if he were flirting with Beauty Lian, causing an uncomfortable block in her chest…


Lian Hua bit her lip as she looked up, thinking what a big scoundrel he was, only wanting to embarrass her. She had thought about going back to kiss him, but now, she wouldn't!


With so many people watching, she felt she had to say something. Thinking of the festival, she could only muster her courage and say, "Today is the joyous Mid-Autumn Festival, this concubine… this concubine wishes to say, may you be blessed with health and safety…" 


The Emperor raised an eyebrow. That's it?


Lian Hua herself felt that this half-statement was too short, but unlike others who could speak eloquently, she struggled to come up with another line, "Uh…, may you eat well and drink well…" 


Consort Xu De was drinking tea and suddenly "pff…" burst out laughing, laughing heartily.
