Song Ci sent a visiting card to the palace, carried a basket of potatoes, and rode a carriage to the palace; as for the other basket, it was for Niu Pan'er and the others to present to the Emperor, along with all the planting data, which had been organized by the farm experts.
Empress Dowager Wang was somewhat surprised but also pleased to receive Song Ci's visiting card, as it was rare for Song Ci to take the initiative to visit the palace.
"After Ci's illness last year, the frequency with which she comes to see me in the palace has increased compared to the past. Lian Qiao, send a capable eunuch to welcome her."
Lian Qiao laughed and said, "I've already sent Xiao Xizi to welcome her."
Empress Dowager Wang nodded, saying, "Even though Ci comes more frequently now, the more she does, Lian Qiao, the more uneasy I feel."
"Lady, why do you say that?" Lian Qiao was a bit surprised.
