In Fuyang Palace, the Noble Consort angrily pointed at the Third Prince's nose and scolded: "Are you unaware that your father values the late Empress's memorial day? Have you forgotten that we copy Buddhist scriptures for the late Empress at this time every year? During the late Empress's memorial period, everyone is cautious not to anger the Emperor, yet you dare to order the capture and killing of birds. Are you out of your mind?"
The Third Prince weakly defended himself: "Wasn't I just so angry that I forgot about it?"
"Such an important matter, and you can forget it? Was your brain eaten by a dog?" At this moment, the Noble Consort had lost all her usual grace and composure. "In a few months, you'll be leaving the palace to be titled a prince, and yet, just before the late Empress's memorial day, you capture and kill birds. Are you seeking to be exiled to the frontier by your father and never return to the capital?"
