The spirit queen, consort ling, is not allowed to use the family's money to save the people of the harem. The yun family, however, is loyal to the emperor and will do whatever it takes to get him out of power. The emperor is not in the palace, but he is arrogant and has no other choice. Everyone calms down, and the emperor tells them that he is the true heir to the throne and that he will forgive them for what they have done. He promises that they will be pardoned as long as they return to work. The foreman tells the emperor that the workers are waiting for him to give them the money, but the emperor still does not give the order. The workers are so angry that they believe that the emperor is behind the whole thing.
