On the last day of the year, all concubines must go to Zhao Yang Palace to greet Empress Xie.
Lady Liang, accompanied by Talent Pan, headed to Zhao Yang Palace. On the way, Talent Pan was careless with her steps and accidentally slipped. Lady Liang reached out to pull her up, but both ended up falling to the ground together. Although neither of them was injured, their clothes got dirty. There was no time to go back to Kunde Hall to change into clean attire; they could only proceed to greet in their unclean clothes.
Talent Pan felt anxious and said to Lady Liang with guilt on her face, "Sister, it's all my fault for being careless, causing us both to fall. If the Empress sees our dirty clothes later, she will surely seize the opportunity to punish us."
