第二皇后奇氏素有寵，居興聖西宮，帝希幸東內。 The second empress, Lady Ki, had long enjoyed favor; she dwelt in the western palace of Xingsheng, while the emperor rarely visited the eastern inner quarters.

奇氏後見其所遺衣服弊壞，大笑曰：「正宮皇后，何至服此等衣耶！」 Later Lady Ki saw the worn and tattered clothes she had left behind and laughed loudly: "The principal-palace empress — how could she wear clothes like these!"
