Manbao said again, "And her husband's family is willing to wait. Given Commandery Princess Yunfeng's temper, is she willing to wait?"
The Empress Dowager was silent. After a while, she said, "I understand. You may leave now."
She paused, thinking of Yunfeng's rejection of Zhou Man, and finally sighed, "Don't worry about this matter. Isn't Ms.Doctor Liu your apprentice? Starting tomorrow, let her enter the palace to tend to Commandery Princess Yunfeng's pregnancy."
Manbao was taken aback for a moment, then lowered her head to agree, got up, rubbed her stiff knees, and was about to leave when the Empress Dowager suddenly said, "Do not speak of this matter outside, and do not inform Yunfeng."
Manbao thought to herself: I knew it; you people surely like to hide things from patients.
She agreed and then retreated.
The Empress Dowager waited until she left and then couldn't help but mutter, "Shameless, who said we were friends with her?"
