Jiang Song was practicing swordplay in the martial arts arena. The dead leaves on the ground were picked up by the sharp wind from her sword, like fallen leaves in a violent storm, flying endlessly.

The Xie family's martial artists didn't dare to get close at all. They just watched from afar, amazed in their hearts.

The sword energy was like a substance, sharp and domineering. Wherever it passed, the dead leaves were cut into fine powder and floated in the air.

They had never seen such domineering swordsmanship, let alone such resolute momentum.

How can this be a sword that a delicate little girl can practice?

This is simply like a female Shura walking out of a sea of ​​corpses and blood!

Two hours later, Jiang Song finally put down the sword in her hand. She stood there quietly, as if she was out of tune with the whole world.

The martial artists looked at each other, not knowing how to start.

They originally had some intention of giving some advice, but now they were filled with nothing but awe.

Jiang Song ignored them, walked to the stone table beside him, sat down, and began to rest with his eyes closed.

"Sister-in-law, you are here? Mother asked us to come over!" Xie Changyu's voice broke the silence of the martial arts field.

Jiang Song opened her eyes and saw Xie Changyu standing not far away, looking at her with a smile on his face.

She stood up and dusted herself off. "What's the matter?"

Xie Changyu walked up to her and said with a smile, "I don't know, let's go and take a look."

Jiang Song nodded, without asking any further questions, and followed Xie Changyu out of the martial arts arena.

The two walked through the corridor and came to Yongshou Hall.

"Song'er, this is Nanny Li from the palace. Come and meet her." Chu Jinghong pointed to a middle-aged woman beside him and said to Jiang Song.

Jiang Song walked forward and bowed slightly, "Greetings, Madam Li."

Nanny Li quickly moved aside, a smile plastered on her face, "She is truly a remarkable person. The Empress Dowager will surely like her when she sees her."

"Song'er, she really liked the gorgeous dress you designed for the Queen Mother on her birthday. Now that the Lotus Appreciation Banquet is coming up soon, I'd like to summon you to the palace to design some new clothes for her."

Jiang Song understood that it was the Queen Mother who summoned him.

"Since the Empress Dowager has summoned me, I shall obey."

Nanny Li nodded in satisfaction. "That's all right. Madam, please get ready and follow me into the palace tomorrow."

Jiang Song nodded slightly, "Thank you, Ma'am."

Chu Jinghong gave a few more instructions and then let Nanny Li go down to rest.

Jiang Song was about to leave, but Chu Jinghong stopped him, "Song'er, please stay for a moment. I have something to tell you."

When they were the only two left in the room, Chu Jinghong took Jiang Song's hand and asked softly, "Song'er, is there any misunderstanding between you and Chang Yan?"

Jiang Song was slightly startled, then lowered his eyelids to hide the ripples in his eyes, "Why do you ask that, mother?"

"Ruyi said that you made some noise in the house yesterday. Changyan is a thoughtful child. If you have any grievances, just tell me and I will take care of it for you." Chu Jinghong's tone was gentle and his words were sincere.

Jiang Song felt warm in his heart, but he didn't know how to start.

The matter between her and Xie Changyan was so complicated that it couldn't be explained in a few words.

"Mother, I..." She opened her mouth, but no words came out.

Chu Jinghong gently patted the back of her hand. "Silly child, since you don't want to talk about it, then forget it. But you have to remember that no matter what happens, you are the daughter-in-law of the Xie family, and my daughter-in-law, Chu Jinghong."

Jiang Song raised his head and looked into Chu Jinghong's loving eyes, and the defenses in his heart collapsed instantly.

"Mother..." She threw herself into Chu Jinghong's arms, tears streaming down her face.

Chu Jinghong hugged her gently and stroked her hair tenderly, "Good girl, cry, it will be better if you cry it out."

With Chu Jinghong's comfort, Jiang Song finally burst into tears, pouring out all the grievances and unwillingness in his heart.

After crying, she felt more relaxed than ever before.

"Mother, thank you." Jiang Song wiped away his tears, raised his head from Chu Jinghong's arms, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

Chu Jinghong also laughed, "Silly child, why are you being so polite to me? By the way, you must be careful when you enter the palace tomorrow. Although the Queen Mother is kind, there are many rules in the palace. You must not lose your manners."

"Yes, mother, I will be careful." Jiang Song nodded in response.

The next morning, Jiang Song got up early, washed and dressed, and then followed Li Ma into the palace.

Also traveling with them was Xie Changyu. As the young master and future head of the Xie family, he naturally had to accompany them to show the Xie family's respect for the royal family.

The carriage stopped at the palace gate. Jiang Song and Xie Changyu got off and followed Nanny Li into the palace on foot.

After passing through many palace gates, they finally arrived at Kunning Palace where the Queen Mother lived.

After Li Ma Ma reported, she led them into the main hall.

Jiang Song looked up and saw a graceful and elegant woman sitting at the top. She was wearing a bright yellow phoenix robe and a nine-dragon and nine-phoenix crown on her head. Her face was kind and majestic.

This is Taixi’s Empress Dowager, the biological mother of the current emperor, Shentu Yuanyi.

Jiang Song and Xie Changyu hurried forward to pay their respects, "Greetings to the Queen Mother. May Her Majesty live a thousand years."

Empress Dowager Shentu nodded slightly and said, "Stand up."

"Changyu, this is your kind-hearted sister-in-law, right? Come forward quickly and let me take a good look at her." Empress Dowager Shentu waved her hand, motioning Jiang Song to come forward.

Jiang Song followed the instructions and walked up to the Queen Mother, bowing slightly. "Your Highness Jiang Song greets the Queen Mother."

Empress Dowager Shentu looked at her carefully and saw that she had delicate features, a gentle temperament, yet a heroic air. She was 70% similar to the child she had lost.

"Good boy, raise your head quickly." There was a tremor in Empress Dowager Shentu's voice, as if it was caused by excitement.

Jiang Song raised his head as he was told and looked at the Queen Mother.

At that moment, she saw the surprise and nostalgia in the Queen Mother's eyes, and her heart couldn't help but move slightly.

"It's so similar..." Empress Dowager Shentu murmured to herself, as if she was lost in some memories.

Jiang Song was a little confused and didn't understand why the Queen Mother said that.

Seeing this, Nanny Li hurried forward and whispered, "Your Majesty the Queen Mother, Madam Jiang is still waiting for your instructions."

Empress Dowager Shentu came back to her senses and smiled awkwardly, "Look at my memory. The moment I see you, I can't help but recall the past."

"Good boy, your name is Jiang Song?"

"Yes, your Madam Jiang Song."

"Yeah, that's a good name."

Empress Dowager Shentu said as she took off a tourmaline bracelet from her wrist and put it on Jiang Song's hand. "This bracelet is given to you as a small gift from my family."

Jiang Song was flattered and quickly expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your reward."

Empress Dowager Shentu smiled and said, "I heard that you are good at designing clothes. Was the Fengwu Jiutian Yunjin dress from last time designed by you?"

"Your Majesty, it was this subject who planned this."

"Then you can stay and design some new clothes for me that will suit the occasion."

"Yes, I obey your command."
