Having made her report and curried some favor, Song Yunzhao returned to Wangyou Palace. If the Minister of the Ministry of Justice was willing to cooperate, then tomorrow's court session would surely be quite lively.
Before she even reached Wangyou Palace, she saw Princess Consort Wan from the neighboring palace, who was just coming out for a stroll.
'What a coincidence?'
Song Yunzhao didn't believe it for a second.
"Greetings, Lady Wanfei." Song Yunzhao stepped forward and curtsied.
Princess Consort Wan looked at Song Yunzhao, her eyes sweeping over the food box held by the maid behind her, and said lightly, "Song Jieyu, you are quite thoughtful."
'No matter how I hear it, that sounds sarcastic. Isn't she just mocking me for running to Taiji Palace so often?'
Song Yunzhao's smile was positively radiant. "The Emperor said the soup I prepared was very much to his liking. Since the Emperor enjoys it, I must naturally do my best."
