Actually, from the moment Luo Cheng brought Li Xiaoran in, the empress dowager had already seen them.
From the beginning, the empress dowager had been secretly observing her granddaughter-in-law.
After Li Xiaoran entered the palace and saw so many people, she did not panic and walked in with a smile.
Later on, the couple met the crown prince and were mocked by him, but Li Xiaoran's expression did not change at all. She still stood at the side with a smile as she watched Luo Cheng and the crown prince bicker.
Now, Li Xiaoran bowed to her very respectfully.
What was even more interesting was that everyone else called her 'Imperial Grandma', except Li Xiaoran.
It was only one word short, but it sounded different in her ears.
Although Imperial Grandma sounded noble, she was less approachable.
Calling her grandma gave off a sense of intimacy.
Just based on this alone, the empress dowager had a good impression of Li Xiaoran.
