Xiqiu left the Cian Palace, lowering her head as she retraced her steps back out of the palace. Suddenly, seven or eight female officials approached from the opposite direction. The groups exchanged formal greetings and whispered a few words. The female officials who were originally guiding Xiqiu withdrew, while the female official in a light purple overcoat smiled and said, "Fourth Madam!"
Xiqiu returned the smile, recognizing her only after she spoke. This person was indeed the Empress's nanny.
"My name is Mao. Fourth Madam, you may call me Mao Jin."
"Nanny Mao!" Xiqiu replied with a smile, to which Nanny Mao further said, "The Empress heard that you came to the palace and said she hadn't seen you in a long time, so she invited you to wait for her at Fengwu Palace."
