Ji Mingzhu is pregnant, and the shoes, clothes, and cushions she uses are all newly prepared.
Every detail is considered with the needs of a pregnant woman in mind, just to make her pregnancy more comfortable and less of a burden.
Having gone through a previous experience, Ji Mingzhu specifically instructed the embroiderers that the shoe soles need to be not only soft but also sufficiently anti-slip.
Once the shoes were ready, she personally inspected them before feeling assured.
According to Eunuch Fu, once in the palace, she would reside in the Empress Dowager's chambers.
After all, this is someone else's territory, so bringing too many things would be inappropriate.
Thus, she made a list and had Gold and the others prepare accordingly.
Apart from daily necessities, everything else could be left behind.
Besides Gold, she brought two capable women to attend to her in the palace.
