Never mind, let's talk about this later, let's not mention it for now.
Ten days later, Xingxing and her entourage returned to the capital. That night, a banquet was held in the palace to welcome the princess and her prospective husband.
After the banquet, the Empress took Xingxing back to Huayun Palace and insisted that Xingxing sleep with her that night so that the mother and daughter could have a private talk.
