After entering the palace, Shangguan Xuanyi first took the rice dumplings to the Cining Palace for the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager was delighted to see her grandson come to see her bearing rice dumplings.

"Yi'er is so dutiful. He didn't forget to send me a part of the dumplings made at home. Someone bring me a portion so I can taste how these dumplings are!"

No sooner were the Empress Dowager's words out than arrangements were made: poison testers tested and food tasters tasted. The Empress Dowager was cautious, and anything that entered her mouth absolutely could not be carelessly prepared.

"The thoughtful one is the Princess. She made them herself and had me deliver some to you, dear great-grandmother. She will come to pay her respects to her grandmother on Dragon Boat Festival. She mentioned that since the dumplings are made of glutinous rice, great-grandmother should not eat too much at once as they are hard to digest."
