You Zihui, with a fawning smile, said to the Empress Dowager, "Empress Dowager, you are a living Buddha, don't get upset over such trivial matters. Let me massage your legs and loosen your muscles."
The Empress Dowager snorted coldly. The eldest princess had always acted foolishly. A princess of her stature had married a consort but couldn't control him, and had even allowed him to take several concubines. All she did every day was come to her palace to cry and complain that the consort never came to her room.
She used to be the Empress Dowager, and now she's the Grand Empress Dowager. She's not a brothel madam anymore, so why should she care which room her husband sleeps in?
The prince consort went to the Northwest a few months ago. Not going with her is stupid. The sooner she leaves, the sooner she can have some peace and quiet.

The Empress Dowager stared at him without saying a word.
You Zihui knelt down again and patted his legs: "Empress Dowager, you love me the most and are the best to me. Please agree to my request. I have already touched and hugged Miss Zhao, and I have ruined her reputation. I have to take responsibility for her."
The Empress Dowager was at her wits' end with this kind of rogue: "Fine, since you like her, I'll grant your request. Have your parents go to the Zhao family to propose marriage properly and treat her well."
You Zihui immediately kowtowed three times to the Empress Dowager, who scoffed at him.
He was overjoyed and hurried to the back room to fetch Miss Zhao.
The Empress Dowager's mood improved considerably after he interrupted her like that.
