"Nanny Xu?"
Yuan Yuan's eyes flashed a trace of confusion, upon which the Empress Dowager hurriedly said,
"It was my oversight, how would you know Nanny Xu? You don't even fully recognize the people around you, do you? Ah, it's all my fault; I should have allowed those who were with you to come along as part of your dowry, but..."
"Never mind, the ones here have been carefully chosen by me. If you need anything, just ask them; remember, I will always be your support, so don't feel embarrassed."
After the Empress Dowager had left, Yuan Yuan carefully pondered the meaning behind her words. That meant she was supposed to have people from her dowry accompany her into the palace, but the Empress Dowager had not allowed it, so she had entered the Imperial Palace alone. The previous group, having neglected her, had been sent to Xinzhiku to perform hard labor; the new ones were handpicked by the Empress Dowager...
Isn't that a bit too good?
