The Crown Princess received a number of precious flowers and plants; some were placed in the greenhouse for cultivation, and she decided to bestow them upon Manbao at a later date.
Another portion was sent to the Empress so she could enjoy them as well.
When she delivered the flowers, the Empress was meeting with Ms. Doctor Liu, who had recently returned to the palace.
The Empress gestured for the Crown Princess to sit down and listen together.
Ms. Doctor Liu paused only briefly before continuing to speak.
The Crown Princess was stunned as she listened, while the Empress remained serene and asked, "So, Fifth Lady of the Han Family is now able to get out of bed and walk?"
Ms. Doctor Liu lowered her head and replied, "She can now move herself to get out of bed, though it's very painful. She can't walk properly yet and can only move a few steps with the aid of the bed."
