Play leaf cards, listen to operas (generally speaking, people in the palace love to listen to operas), eat sweets (concubines in the palace rarely eat anything that is not sweet), dress up (you need to spend two to comb your hair) hours, which is equivalent to nearly four hours, you can imagine how long it takes to dress up). After all, their life is boring, and they usually just kill time after the intrigue. The emperor did not go to court every day. Their days were repeated day after day. There was something going on under the sun every day, so they all wanted to leave the palace for inspection.
