Cining Palace.
Empress Dowager Wang and Song Ci sat on the Arhat bed by the window in the eastern room.
"I knew you entered the palace, and I wanted someone to bring you over to talk, but now that the Crown Prince has been established and the Empress is enjoying her success, your Song Family should first go to her side."
Song Ci was somewhat apprehensive and said, "If Lady wants to see me, just summon me over, it's fine. Isn't my daughter-in-law socializing over there with the Empress?"
Empress Dowager Wang shook her head with a smile and said, "It's fine for you to go over; after all, it's her in charge of the harem, and in the future, she'll be even more distinguished. When I go to join the late emperor, the Song Family will need a new hope."
Song Ci looked at Empress Dowager Wang, feeling a sting in her nose and a lump in her throat.
