After listening to what Song Zhiyu said, Mrs. Meng looked embarrassed. She gently shook her head at Song Zhiyu and said apologetically.

"Di Ji, I'm sorry that this matter is difficult to obey. Previously, the emperor did not dare to do anything to me, and you are right. Naturally, we are on your side."

"But now, for some unknown reason, the Emperor has been finding ways to bully me. I have been extremely busy during this period and cannot help you anymore."

When she said this, Song Zhiyu couldn't continue to ask Sun to help her. She smiled lightly and expressed her sincerity.

"Since you are in trouble, I won't help you, but I hope we can unite the front with you."

What she said was so straightforward that even Sun could not help but be stunned for a while when she heard it.

"We will."

After parting ways with the Sun family, Song Zhiyu knew that it was time to place her confidants in the court. Otherwise, if the same situation as Meng Qiuhe appeared again and again, it would be difficult for her to stand up.

Although Zhou Sheng is good, in her opinion, he is not suitable for being placed in the imperial court, and his secrets can easily be revealed.

Song Zhi thought for a moment, and finally decided to ask Zhou Sheng to go to the countryside to find people who wanted to take the imperial examination but did not have money and other reasons.

She didn't want anyone, so she naturally mentioned all her conditions to Zhou Sheng before giving up.

"Emperor Ji, Emperor Ji Yuanshou is here again!"

Song Zhiyu lowered her head to pierce the handkerchief in her hand. After hearing this, she frowned and raised her head to look at Su Zhihan. She couldn't help but ask again: "You said Song Mingcai is here?"

"Yes, I am waiting for you in the main room now."

Su Zhihan puffed up his cheeks, and she also frowned, feeling very puzzled by Song Mingcai's visit to Fanghua Palace all day long.

Song Mingcai and Song Zhiyu were fine on the surface, but no one was dealing with the other behind the scenes. Most people in the palace knew that she kept coming to find Song Zhiyu, and anyone who looked at her would think there was something wrong.

Song Zhiyu also couldn't understand Song Mingcai. After the birthday party, Song Mingcai kept looking for her here and there, and she didn't know what his intentions were.

"Now that I'm here, I can't help but entertain you. Otherwise, if someone spreads the word, they might say something about Fanghua Palace."

Su Zhihan was unhappy now, but she didn't know what to say. She nodded vigorously, turned around and walked out quickly.

"I wonder why you came to Fanghua Palace today?"

Song Zhiyu walked in front of the main seat with lotus steps and sat down. She lazily raised her eyes and looked at Song Mingcai with a fragrant handkerchief in hand.

Song Mingcai stood up from the chair as soon as she heard the noise. She was already weak, but now that she was being supported while standing there, she looked even more delicate.

"There is a group of flowers in the Royal Garden that are blooming very brightly, and they really complement my sister's appearance. I came here today just to invite you to come and enjoy them."

Song Zhiyu raised her eyebrows. Naturally, she didn't take Song Mingcai's words to heart. She didn't believe that Song Mingcai invited her out with pure thoughts. She even believed that Song Mingcai came with a conspiracy.

Furthermore, even if the flowers were blooming in the imperial garden, she would wait until the snow stopped to appreciate the colors of the flowers covered by the white snow.

As long as the flowers bloom beautifully, even white snow cannot hide their beauty.

"I'm suffering from the cold today, so I'm afraid I can't go to the Imperial Garden with you to enjoy the flowers as you wish." Song Zhiyu smiled faintly.

Song Mingcai was stunned, his face stiffened, and he suddenly didn't know how to continue.

She originally thought that Song Zhiyu's temperament would definitely follow her out, but she didn't expect that Song Zhiyu would use her illness to evade it.
