Suddenly, Song's mother spoke in a deliberately profound tone, and then dismissed the rest of the servants.
Only the mother and daughter remained in the house, and Song Tangxue certainly didn't want to be alone with her.
"Mother, you went to see the Crown Princess yesterday. I wonder how she is doing now?"
Song Tangxue finally spoke up, but it was the last thing her mother wanted to hear.
She put on a grand performance here yesterday, saying she would never see Song Tangli, but she went there behind her back.
Song Tangxue's words were undoubtedly meant to expose the mask of Song's mother's pretense and put her in an awkward position.
Song's mother naturally understood her intention, and her expression immediately reversed, turning gloomy.
"What do you mean by this? Do you really want me to get angry with you and sever all ties between us as mother and daughter?"
Song's mother stopped pretending and started questioning him.
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Song Tangxue look at her with a slightly bewildered expression and ask in confusion.
"Mother, didn't we break up long ago because of one thing after another? Why are you only realizing it now?"
She was trying to disgust Song's mother to the very end. Song's mother naturally noticed this and chuckled, but her face was full of coldness.
"She truly is my good daughter!"
After saying that, Song's mother left. Song Tangxue ignored her and went to do her hair and makeup alone.
What happened to Song's mother is no longer my concern; the bond between them has long since broken down.
"She still harbors resentment towards us; there's no affection left between us. I'm afraid we can't rely on her in the future!"
Filled with boundless rage, Song's mother immediately spoke upon seeing Song's father.
Seeing his angry and embarrassed expression, Song's father immediately understood what was going on.
But instead of getting angry, she chuckled and said in a lighthearted tone.
"That's why I made my decision yesterday. You don't need to worry about her anymore, and we'll have no further contact with her."
Song Tangxue is now enjoying immense prestige and has even been granted the title of Princess.
But so what? Their hearts are not with the Song family at all, no matter how much they try to curry favor, it's useless.
"It's better to offer help in times of need than to add to someone's already splendid situation!"
Mr. Song spoke again, and this time Mrs. Song did not refute him.
"You've served in the imperial court for many years, and you haven't wasted your time. You're much more perceptive in these matters than I am," Song's mother flattered him before agreeing.
"If that's the case, then let's do as you say."
Song's mother has already approved of Song's father's plan.
Song Tangxue didn't care about the couple's affairs. Even if they adopted more children, it had nothing to do with her.
Xie Qianzhong and Song Tangxue met in advance at Qianxianglou.
Zhan Ming hadn't arrived yet, so it would be easier for the two of them to talk.
"I've figured it out. No matter what the situation, we should take it as it comes."
Song Tangxue took the initiative to speak, unwilling to worry about the future now.
Xie Qianzhong was not troubled by this matter, but he was afraid that Song Tangxue would not understand.
Upon hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, chuckled softly, and nodded.
"As long as you can think this way, that's good. And don't worry, I'll take care of everything and won't let you have any worries."
Xie Qianzhong spoke with great seriousness, and Song Tangxue naturally understood this.
Finally, she smiled a little shyly and told the truth.
"Actually, I was a little worried at first, but then I thought about the last argument in the royal family, which proved that you are better than me when it comes to these things."
Since that's the case, then we should obediently listen to the advice; only in this way can we stabilize the overall situation.
If Song Tangxue had truly listened to Xie Qianzhong last time, she wouldn't have been misunderstood from the start as the culprit who pushed down the Crown Princess.
Xie Qianzhong naturally understood; he had guessed it from the beginning, and it might be related to what happened last time.
He also had many feelings, but then he said...
"Alright, stop overthinking. What you need to do now is be a good bride-to-be and wait for me to marry you!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Zhan Ming suddenly appeared.
He wore a mask again today, as if to hide his unhappy mood.
Song Tangxue was initially surprised, but she didn't dare to ask any more questions, since it was none of her business.
"After thinking about what you said to me yesterday, I realized it made sense. That's why I came here today to tell you. I won't overthink it anymore."
Before the two could speak, Zhan Ming took the initiative to speak.
Then, after saying that, he clasped his hands in a fist and said, "The affairs of the escort agency are quite troublesome, so I will take my leave to attend to them."
I don't know what happened to him today; he came and went so quickly, disappearing without a trace in an instant.
Song Tangxue was extremely puzzled and looked at Xie Qianzhong with some confusion.
"What's wrong with him? He's acting like he took the wrong medicine?"
"Even you, a doctor, can't see it now, so naturally I don't know either."
As a man, Xie Qianzhong was naturally aware of Zhan Ming's unusual behavior, but he did not point it out.
After saying that, he asked another question.
"You had planned to become a pharmaceutical merchant before, and I've already sent someone to make the arrangements. Everything is just waiting for you to go and take a look."
"So fast?"
Song Tangxue was quite stunned and couldn't believe it.
Xie Qianzhong smiled and nodded: "Of course, I should pay extra attention to your affairs."
After saying that, he suddenly hugged Song Tangxue.
Feeling his embrace, Song Tangxue wanted to speak, but the words stuck in her throat.
"It's so good to have you, we'll always be this good together!"
After Zhan Ming left, he actually hid by the door.
He felt an intense pain in his heart, especially after hearing Song Tangxue say those words, as if he had been dealt another fatal blow.
Zhan Ming gave a self-deprecating laugh, then quickly disappeared.
Xie Qianzhong had practiced martial arts since childhood and received guidance from renowned masters. If he didn't have this level of hearing, he would probably have been killed long ago.
There were no footsteps outside when Zhan Ming left, but they came shortly after, right after Song Tangxue finished speaking.
Zhan Ming is now quite certain that his earlier guess must be true.
"So many medicinal herbs! And such a huge warehouse! It's much bigger than I imagined!"
Xie Qianzhong then led Song Tangxue to the storeroom, where he prepared a large quantity of medicinal herbs in the shortest possible time.
Upon seeing this, Song Tangxue was not only surprised but also extremely happy. It seemed that her affairs were about to get back on track sooner than expected.
"Then we'd better hurry. Now that you've gathered these medicinal herbs, we need to make sure they realize their value as soon as possible."
"Now that you have nothing to do, you might as well hurry up and arrange these things to pass the time."
Xie Qianzhong spoke up directly, and Song Tangxue naturally thought the same thing, nodding in strong agreement.
"Yes, I will set up pharmacies in various parts of the capital as soon as possible to help the people in all areas."
