A court struggle made Cixi physically and mentally exhausted, and Cixi suddenly realized that none of the officials and close relatives around him were credible, and she couldn't help but sigh. After the fighting subsided, Cixi offered rewards to the eunuchs and court ladies who had rescued her, and everyone was very happy about it. Dehai and Lianying's position by Cixi's side became more and more important, and Sanshun had to ask them for help in order to save his uncle Chen Fu. Chen Fu performed three kneeling and nine worship services in Taimiao for atonement, hoping that the queen mothers of the two palaces would forgive her fault.
