Madam Lu honestly answered, "Previously, it was his father who was considering this matter; I have not yet taken a fancy to anyone."
She thought to herself, The Empress is too impatient, I just mentioned that I haven't been involved in this.
"Oh, what a coincidence!" The Empress casually lifted her eyes and glanced toward a lady seated on the right, softly saying, "The Ducal Residence has a daughter from the fourth lady's family who possesses virtue and talent, and she is close in age to your family's Tianning. Why not consider her!"
Upon her words, everyone followed the Empress's gaze toward Madam Jin, who sat amidst the crisis.
Madam Jin's face showed a somewhat awkward expression, but with everyone looking at her, she could only nod and smile faintly to Madam Lu.
Madam Lu's eyes sparkled with delight, clearly very satisfied with the Empress's suggestion.
