"I've been avoiding her lately and don't want to be involved in anything related to her."
Song Tangxue spoke with remarkable composure, referring to Song Tangli.
Hearing her best friend say this, Meng Youyu became quite emotional: "She has really changed beyond recognition now because of her pursuit of power."
That being said, we still need to follow the reminders.
"You must remember to be careful and cautious, lest something unexpected happens again someday."
Meng Youyu always felt that Song Tangli was a venomous snake in the dark, who would bite them at any time.
Song Tangxue knew this perfectly well, and said with a smile.
"Look at how worried you are about me now, it's like you're treating me like a child."
After she finished speaking, Meng Youyu suddenly remembered a key point.
"If they use such despicable means to compete for favor, wouldn't they also resort to such means if they wanted to have a child to rely on?"
Meng Youyu's eyes widened, as if she had discovered something extraordinary.
Because if that were the case, who could guarantee that the child would be completely safe?
Song Tangxue has been neglecting Song Tangli lately, simply avoiding her and not giving her much thought.
I didn't want to waste my energy on someone like that, but after hearing Meng Youyu say that, I thought it was quite possible.
"If she can get her hands on these things that compete for favor, it won't be difficult for her to have a child if she puts in a little more effort."
"Look, even you think it's highly likely. Then this child might have had problems from the womb. We must stay away from him!"
Meng Youyu quickly continued, while Song Tangxue fell into deep thought.
Children conceived through such means are almost always problematic.
"Thanks to you this time. If you hadn't said these things, I probably wouldn't have thought of this."
Even Song Tangxue, who was slow to realize it, was now completely convinced of the truth.
Meng Youyu breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness for my clever little brain, otherwise we would still be kept in the dark about this."
However, simply knowing is not enough. Meng Youyu felt that they needed some methods to let them know more.
“I think that since that’s the case, we should try our best to find out what his current situation is. This will be good for both you and the Prime Minister.”
If Song Tangli had successfully framed someone after doing something so outrageous last time, the once-glorious Song Tangxue would have been plunged into hell, never to recover.
This shows that she has long since lost her mind and become insane, so we have to be on guard against her.
Song Tangxue originally wanted to remain aloof, but now it seems that's no longer an option.
"Yes, don't worry, I know what I'm doing, and I definitely won't miss the opportunity."
Song Tangli has too many secrets waiting for them to uncover, and even if Song Tangxue is unwilling, she has no choice now.
After chatting for a while, the two left Zuixianglou and went home.
Haitang found it very strange that her mistress had been silent the whole way, as if she was thinking about something.
Upon returning to Xianyu Pavilion, she immediately asked.
"What's wrong? You look like you have something on your mind."
"I have some questions on my mind, but don't worry about me."
Song Tangxue did not tell Haitang what was going on, wanting to figure it out herself first.
But to his surprise, as soon as he finished speaking, Song's mother came over in a fierce manner, as if she wanted to interrogate him.
When Haitang saw that Song's mother looked unwell as she entered, she quickly whispered a reminder.
"It seems the lady has come looking for trouble; you should be careful."
Song Tangxue, on the other hand, remained remarkably calm and composed, nodding without uttering a word.
She wasn't afraid of Song's mother at all, and Song's mother's behavior clearly showed that she had been misled by Song Tangli and had come back to cause trouble for her.
Song Tangxue's guess was indeed accurate. Her mother arrived in a menacing manner and, upon seeing Song Tangxue, confronted her directly with a barrage of questions.
"Your sister has invited you several times recently, but you haven't gone even once. She is, after all, the Crown Princess. How can you be so disrespectful?"
That wasn't enough; Song's mother continued to question her.
"Aren't you afraid that if this gets out, everyone will laugh at us, and then you'll lose face?"
"Have you forgotten what happened in the past?" Song Tangxue asked in return.
He looked at Song's mother with unusual calmness and continued, "I've learned my lesson. I was just trying to protect myself."
Song's mother had indeed not forgotten what had happened before, but she didn't take it seriously.
“The situation was critical at the time, and it’s normal to hallucinate. You insist on holding onto it. I think you’re just making an excuse to distance yourself from her.”
Song's mother was simply making excuses; her favorite person right now was Song Tangli.
No matter what Song Tangli says or does, she believes it without question.
Song Tangxue was already used to this, after all, it wasn't the first time.
"It seems Mother has come to demand an explanation. How should I apologize? Perhaps I should kneel in the palace and remain there to express my remorse?"
Song Tangxue replied nonchalantly, knowing that the less she cared about the matter, the more likely she was to provoke her mother's anger.
Upon hearing this, Song's mother immediately glared at her with anger.
"Look at what you're saying, you're so heartless! How could I have given birth to a daughter like you!"
“Mother, I don’t want to waste any more words with you. If you think I’m wrong, then I’m wrong.”
Song Tangxue now seems to be acting like a dead pig that's not afraid of boiling water.
Song's mother feared that if she stayed any longer, she would only become furious.
"Alright, alright, I don't have time to deal with you today. We'll talk again tomorrow!"
She also had to personally supervise the servants to prepare soup and nourishing ingredients for Song Tangli.
Song Tangxue guessed why her mother had suddenly left, and then continued.
"Then I won't disturb Mother as she goes to the main kitchen, lest it delay important matters and make my daughter even more guilty."
Haitang, who was standing to the side, was dumbfounded. He never expected that his young lady would be like a completely different person today.
Not only was he indifferent to Song's mother, but he also spoke to her with sarcasm and ridicule, only knowing how to hurt her feelings.
Song's mother immediately clutched her chest, looking at Song Tangxue with a face full of surprise.
Song Tangxue rarely acts like this, especially lately, she has been cold to the two of them.
Now they've become sharp-tongued and witty, directly hitting their sore spots.
"You unfilial daughter, I'll have your father deal with you later!"
This time, Song's mother wasn't really worried about having to supervise their work at the appointed time; rather, she was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would be so angry that she would lie on the ground.
Given Song Tangxue's current state, she couldn't guarantee that Song Tangxue would lend her a helping hand!
"Take care, Mother." Song Tangxue said again, which was rare for her, while Haitang beside her didn't dare to breathe.
