Empress Dowager

Aunt Shen lowered her head and listened. "There's no one more meticulous than Aunt Xu."

As she spoke, the Empress Dowager sighed again. "I originally didn't plan to let her out of the palace, but the Marquis of Changxing's family kept asking for Nanny Xu and wanted her to help teach Seventh Miss in the family. I didn't agree, so she begged Concubine Zhuang. Concubine Zhuang also begged the person from Zhaoyang Palace to come to me to discuss it. If I refused again, I'm afraid even the emperor would be alerted."

Aunt Shen lowered her head and stared at the tip of her shoe.

The "person from Zhaoyang Palace" that the Empress Dowager was talking about was Imperial Consort Lu, who lived in Zhaoyang Palace.
