Nangong Yu felt resentful in her heart, but to win her Imperial Mother's sympathy, she still endured and followed the arrangements of the two old palace maids.
These two maids were extremely strict, and as soon as they arrived at Zhao Yue Palace, they began teaching Nangong Yu etiquette, from walking to talking, from eating to dressing, not allowing her any slack.
Nangong Yu was kowtowing one moment, and kneeling the next, exhausted by the ordeal. By night, she was even ordered to copy "Women Taming" and "Women Rules" in the dark.
Nangong Yu was punished by Empress Mu, and under Luo Xue's arrangement, the news naturally spread to the Jade Palace.
When Empress Dowager Mo heard that her daughter was punished by Empress Mu, she disregarded the nightfall and immediately went to her daughter's palace.
