Before Song Qian left the palace, she still held a position of absolute authority in the palace. But after she returned this time, there seemed to be some subtle changes in the entire palace, and even the empress was a little strange towards her.
Song Qian paid her a visit, but the empress did not tell her to get up and just lightly pointed at her.
“Our Princess Fukang has finally finished copying the Diamond Sutra and returned from her family’s temple? ”
Song Qian: “Yes. ”
“Princess Fukang wants to copy the Sutra for His Majesty. This is truly sincere and filial, but unfortunately, it seems that there is no lack of filial people around His Majesty. I heard that the princess came back to see His Majesty, and even went to the imperial garden to meet him by chance? ”
Song Qian lowered her head as if a layer of her skin had been peeled off. She did not say a word.
“Aiya, you child, what do you want me to say about you? This imperial palace has never lacked people who want to ascend to the throne. If you leave, there will naturally be someone else to replace you. ”
“Look at this now. You haven’t been in the palace for half a month because Princess Fuyu has taken some time out. Right now, the entire palace is controlled by the mother and daughter pair. Even I, the empress, would not be able to see them if it wasn’t for the Fifteenth Day of the Lunar New Year, when His Majesty had to stay with me. Fukang, what do you think we should do about this situation? ”
The empress’s words were filled with dissatisfaction towards Song Qian.
She mocked Song Qian again. When she spoke of Zhang Guifei and Song Tan, her tone was filled with deep wariness and jealousy.
Song Qian knew that she had taken the wrong step and played a good hand to a pulp.
She had calculated everything and knew that Fu an was not the kind of person who liked to play games in front of the emperor. She felt that she had nothing to worry about. However, she did not expect Song Tan to be left out. During the time she was gone, Song Tan had actually gone from a fool who did not know anything.. To a person who even the officials were coaxed into submission by her. This was Song Qian’s miscalculation.
Taking a deep breath, Song Qian knelt in front of the empress and made a military order to the empress.
“empress, you can rest assured. This matter was created by me. Of course, I have to solve this matter well, ” Song Qian said resolutely.
Song Qian was very confident in her influence over Song Tan. This was the biggest trump card she had always relied on.

Xia Ling stayed in the princess’residence. She had just heard that Song Qian had returned from copying scriptures from the temple. On the other hand, she had received a letter of invitation from Song Qian in the princess’residence.
The letter was written with enthusiasm, and every word expressed her concern for her sister.
Xia Ling received the letter of invitation with joy.
Zhang Mama understood most of it, but she still asked first, “Princess, this letter of invitation… ”
“I want to see Fu Kang. ” Xia Ling smiled.
The girl sat in the room, her black eyes glowing. She was looking forward to seeing this sister whom she had not seen for a long time.
Zhang Mama knew Song Tan’s character. Even though she had become no different from other girls, she was more innocent and naive than the other girls. She still lacked more than ten years of experience.
Putting everything else aside, when she saw Song Qian’s invitation, Zhang Mama knew that the girl would definitely agree.
“Princess, you can rest assured in the princess’ residence. As for the other matters, this old servant will take care of them, ” Mama Li replied.
In order to make up for the girl’s lack of hospitality, Zhang Guifei would summon Zhang Mama and Li to the palace every once in a while.
And in the princess’residence, the two aunties would help Xia ling take care of the daily social interactions.

Zhang Mama followed Song Tan’s previous attitude toward Song Qian and discussed with Mama Li. She prepared a heavy return gift for Song Qian to show Song Tan’s joy.
