I will survive,for  you mother.On the way to the palace I stop and buy a few supplies I'll need to establish myself and I also bring the "weapons" my mother gave to me. We travel and finally reach the palace where an eunuch tells me where my abode is arrogantly I may add, I find my way there and I'm later introduced to the maid servants who'll be serving me, They introduced themselves and I asked where the head of maids wher and a scary figure came out and and bowed saying your servant kashi is present I instructed her to take her leave and told her that she will be working under my nanny for the time being.I later instructed nanny that she should secretly investigate all my servants and only keep the ones that are loyal and should send the rest of them back and to scout out allies and report back to me.
          *The Next Day*
A messenger from Changung Palace comes and says that we are ordered to meet the Empress for the first time. I quickly find the "weapons" that my mother gave me and picked the simplest one along with hardware.(this is how I looked)

I hurriedly arrived at the Empresses Palace and I knelt along with the other new concubines and said our greetings to the Empress,and senior concubines we were told to have a seat and the Noble Concubine Zi suddenly made a fit and started to curse...

I hurriedly arrived at the Empresses Palace and I knelt along with the other new concubines and said our greetings to the Empress,and senior concubines we were told to have a seat and the Noble Concubine Zi suddenly made a fit and started to curse me saying that my outfit is to plain and that I'm disrespecting her by looking at her and she charges me with the crime of disrespecting my seniors. I quickly kneel and plead to my accusation saying Your Highness The Empress and Noble Comcubine Zi I am of low birth from a Concubine so I do not own the best things and I was trying to be respectful because of the death of the Imperial Concubine Ali because I heard she was Buddhist and she preferred to wear plain clothing the noble concubine interrupts  me by saying that I'm a nuisance and should be sentenced to death and I ask why and she says because you want to seduce His Majesty, like that woman did I take her on saying I'm already a concubine wedded by His Majesty and I was brought to it the palace to serve him so why does it matter if I try to seduce him, the Empress says she is right Wen Yi,but what about she looking at me that way I interrupt saying I was looking at her lady ship's undenying beauty and admiring the goods given to her by his majesty. I hear the footsteps of a man and I'm figuring its majesty so I pull out a trump card and start crying and gives my nanny a hint and she kneels and holds me saying my mistress never ment to offend you she was just envious of all the treasures  you have on.My lady just wanted to abide by the rules of the palace by respectfully wearing mourning clothes when a concubine dies especially one so prominent like the late Imperial Concubine Ali.I burst into tears and say I'm sorry for following the palace rules and admiring his majesty I kneel face down. His Majesty bursts in angrily and says that he didn't know that following the rules is a crime and accuses Noble Concubine as abusing her power and bullying  a new comer he asks me what I think and I quickly say that it was my fault I was stupid and he said is it stupid to stick up for yourself and I said it was my fault because I didn't know that Noble Concubine kept a grudge against the Imperial Concubine Ali he looks at her in anger and announced that Noble Concubine is to be stripped of her title and not allowed to leave her room until commanded. I looked her in the eye and smirked so that no one would see. * I was never going to be bullied by someone like her* I checked  her of my list of  potential enemies  15 more to go * but I'm not worrying all I have is time and I'm still young*. His Majesty looked at me and handed me a gold looking item, I looked at it then hid it quickly and bowed saying thank you your majesty and he left. I returned to my palace and on my way I meet an unexpected person................
