With a heart full of concerns, Song Zhiyuan arrived at Chunhui Hall.
Song Ci was sipping on sweet soup. Seeing him arrive, she invited him to sit down and asked Hong You to bring another bowl of mung bean soup for him.
But Song Zhiyuan couldn't taste anything.
Noticing his demeanor, Song Ci put down her bowl and glanced at the Nanny, who walked to the door, sent the servants away, and guarded the entrance from outside.
"Is there something on your mind?"
"Why has Mother become so close with Commandery Princess Dongyang?" Song Zhiyuan got straight to the point.
Song Ci was taken aback and replied, "People can become friends naturally; does there always have to be a reason for it?"
From his expression, it seemed as though her friendship with Commandery Princess Dongyang was a grave offense.
