Su Xinyi knew that Yan Junchu was returning the favor; since the Empress Dowager treated her, the Empress, with such courtesy, he naturally wished to give the Shu Family the honor and add luster to the Empress Dowager's face.
Su Xinyi was truly unsure of the Empress Dowager's intentions, "I'll ask Her Majesty about it tomorrow."
Yan Junchu nodded, then added, "Now that you are the Empress, logically, the Su Family should be rewarded. Do you have any thoughts?"
Su Xinyi was taken aback, "The Su Family is already from the Duke Mansion, how else can they be ennobled? At most, it would just be an additional title."
Usually, the maternal family of the Empress was granted honorary titles such as 'Graced by Favor' or 'Blessed with Grace', which seemed glorious but were actually quite insubstantial. However, the Qi Country Duke's Mansion was different, with a genuine foundation as a noble family. There was no need for such honorary titles on top of their status.
