Without concerning the children, the Empress Dowager was surprisingly benevolent to her now, "To reply to the Empress Dowager, yes, indeed."

"I heard he's not yet engaged?" The Empress Dowager didn't ask if he was engaged, but stated that she had heard he wasn't. This was her way of telling Xiao'er not to try to fool her, she had already investigated!

Hearing this, Xiao'er understood the Empress Dowager's intent and felt more at ease, "To reply to the Empress Dowager, he indeed hasn't publicly announced his engagement but the two parties have privately agreed and are preparing to officially announce it."

After saying this, Xiao'er gave Gu Qiqi a smiling glance.

Gu Qiqi also guessed the Empress Dowager's intention, her younger sister talked about her senior brother every day, everyone in the family knew her feelings.

If the Empress Dowager interfered abruptly, knowing her younger sister's temper, she would likely refuse marriage for the rest of her life!

She felt a bit anxious.
