Chapter 227 How you got here, you go back the same way

The moment she entered, Liu Ruxuan looked in the direction of the Empress Dowager. Almost simultaneously, the Empress Dowager, who was sitting high on the throne, saw her at a glance. The Empress Dowager blinked in surprise, and after confirming that it was Liu Ruxuan, she suddenly ran down from the throne.

"Xuan'er, it really is you!" The Empress Dowager hurried to Liu Ruxuan's side, her face full of smiles.

Liu Ruxuan smiled slightly: "Empress Dowager, it is I."

Liu Ruxuan glanced behind the Empress Dowager. The Emperor was still kneeling on the ground, and the Empress was standing beside him. At this moment, both of them turned to look at her and forgot to get up.

"Empress Dowager, His Majesty is the supreme ruler, how can he kneel on the ground? Please help him up," Liu Ruxuan said softly.

After hearing Liu Ruxuan's words, the Empress Dowager turned to Chu Yi with displeasure and said, "Alright, alright, get up."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yi immediately stood up, filled with gratitude towards Liu Ruxuan.

The Empress Dowager turned her head and took Liu Ruxuan's hand in hers: "Xuan'er, don't call me Empress Dowager, call me Imperial Grandmother. I've missed you terribly! Wait a minute, why is Xuan'er in the palace?"

The Empress Dowager remembers that she will not be able to see Liu Ruxuan again for another six months.

"It was Grand Preceptor Sikong who brought me in." Liu Ruxuan said, glancing behind her. Sikong Hao walked in gracefully: "Your subject greets the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, and the Empress."

The Empress Dowager smiled and nodded: "Alright, no need for formalities. Xuan'er, I haven't been eating or sleeping well lately. Come with me quickly, let me take a look at you."

After saying this, the Empress Dowager led Liu Ruxuan to sit on the throne, and everyone else watched quietly, not daring to say a word.

Liu Ruxuan took the Empress Dowager's pulse and said with a light smile, "Grandmother, you're just overthinking things. You should relax. I'll prescribe a calming medicine for you in a bit. Drink it for a couple of days and you'll feel better."

The Empress Dowager nodded repeatedly: "Good, I will listen to whatever Xuan'er says."

Liu Ruxuan was deeply moved by the Empress Dowager's trust in her.

"Your Majesty, look how considerate Xuan is. Tell me, should we bestow upon her the title of Princess?" The Empress Dowager had been worried about this matter.

Chu Yi looked troubled: "This... let me think about it some more..." After all, this is not a small matter, and it is not easy to make a decision all at once.

"I don't think we need to think about it anymore. Let's just find an auspicious day and confer the title," the Empress Dowager said, becoming happier and happier as she thought about it.

Seeing Chu Yi's troubled expression, Liu Ruxuan said to the Empress Dowager, "Grandmother, there is no rush to confer the title of Princess. Ruxuan is the daughter of a general and has no royal blood. It is somewhat illogical for her to be suddenly conferred the title of Princess, and I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."

When the Empress Dowager saw that Liu Ruxuan was also refuting her, she suddenly became unhappy: "Xuan'er, did the Emperor say something to you behind your back?"

"No, no, no, I didn't!" Chu Yi waved his hands repeatedly upon hearing this.

“Grandmother, you’re overthinking it. How could the Emperor do anything against your wishes?” Liu Ruxuan sighed inwardly.

"There is no best." The Empress Dowager's expression finally relaxed.

Sikong Hao, who was standing to the side, secretly shook his head.

An hour passed quickly, and Liu Ruxuan had to take her leave of the Empress Dowager. She had been out for so long, and she was afraid that Xiyue and the others were getting impatient.

Just like when they arrived, Sikong Hao insisted on sending her back, saying he would take her back exactly as she had come. However, this time it was a little better than the arrival; Liu Ruxuan was able to hold onto Sikong Hao's arm…
