Quem Machucar Minha Mãe, Morrerá Sem Perdão

In order to secure the emperor’s favor, the soon‑to‑be empress Bao’er takes “Essence‑Absorbing Pills”. On her wedding day, however, she sees the emperor bring back a woman from Miaojiang, and jealousy blazes within her. The empress dowager returns to the palace with Lingzhi Pills to visit her daughter‑in‑law, but Bao’er mistakes her for a seductress and publicly strips and humiliates her. At the critical moment, the emperor arrives and roars: “Whoever harms my mother shall be put to death without mercy!” Thus begins a bloody storm in the harem.
