It is said that Yang Guifei likes pomegranate very much. Therefore, Tang planted many pomegranates near Huaqing Palace for her to watch. Tang loves to watch Yang Guifei's drunken state, and often makes her drunk to see her charming state. Pomegranate can sober up, so after Tang saw it, he often peeled pomegranate and fed it to Yang Guifei. The minister of the DPRK was very upset about this and complained to Yang Guifei day by day. Yang Guifei is very unhappy about this.
One day, Emperor Tang Ming invited ministers to a banquet and invited Yang Guifei to play music to entertain the guests. Yang Guifei deliberately broke a string when the music played to the most beautiful sound, which made the music impossible to play. Tang asked what the reason was, and Yang Guifei took the opportunity to say that it was because the courtiers who listened to the song were disrespectful to her, and the god of Siqu wronged her, so she broke the string. Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty believed her words very much, so he issued an imperial edict: in the future, no matter ministers or ministers, anyone who saw the imperial concubine must bow down or be killed. Since then, ministers have bowed to the ground in awe when they saw Yang Guifei.
Because Yang Guifei always likes to wear skirts embroidered with pomegranate on weekdays, those ministers privately joke with the words of "falling at the pomegranate skirt".
