* CoolOldLady: The Grand Empress Dowager can be considered one, she even locks Cheng Yin and Xiao Feng in a bedroom to ensure that they have a child. When She checks in them during that time she catches them when Xiao Feng is tying up a drugged Cheng Yin, making it look like kinky foreplay. The Grand Empress Dowager merely chuckles while shaking he head at the energy of youth.

** When the Grand Empress Dowager locks Cheng Yin and Xiao Feng in a room and sends the aphrodisiac laced food, Xiao Feng has to tie up an amorous Cheng Yin. The Grand Empress Dowager and her attendants come exactly at that moment and think that the married couple are just being kinky.

** Xiao Feng's marriage is initially a suggestion by Consort Ming Yuan, and her mother opposes it mainly because she resents her husband's concubine. Ming Yuan's intention is to ensure peace between Shangjing and Xizhao but making decisions about the queen's biological daughter future is a breach of protocol and makes the queen lose face.
** Empress Mei Niang plots against the original crown prince Cheng Ji because he is not her official son and gains nothing from his prosperity. But if her legal son Cheng Yin is the crown prince and future emperor, it means that in the future she will be Empress Dowager and retain her status and power.
