The Grand Princess did not even have time to finish her midday meal before arranging for a maid to go to the palace and petition the Empress Dowager. She wanted to request that her period of house arrest be reduced from three months to one. In this way, she would have enough time to stay at General Li's Mansion to look after Princess Luoqi until she gave birth.
The maid received her orders and went to the palace. Upon her return, she hurried to report back. As the maid knelt on the ground, before she could even open her mouth, the Grand Princess spoke first:
"Did Mother agree to my request? After all, Luoqi is her own granddaughter."
