The news that Empress Dowager Zhuang could not eat was quickly relayed to the Zhuang family.
Zhuang's Grand Tutor, worried that the Empress Dowager might be sick, promptly invited the royal physicians to check her pulse. However, her pulse indicated no significant issues. The physician speculated that it might be a matter of the heart.
"Perhaps... it's because the Empress Dowager has been away from the palace for a long time and now she is having some difficulty adjusting to being back."
Zhuang's Grand Tutor coldly retorted, "She's spent a lifetime within the Forbidden City, isn't leaving it what she's not accustomed to?"
She was returning home, what could be there to adjust to?
"Perhaps... we can let her family members spend more time with her," the royal physician suggested.
Zhuang's Grand Tutor thought this idea might work and consequently sent Zhuang Yuexi and Zhuang Mengdie to the Imperial Palace overnight.
