Song Yunzhao's rise to favor was no good thing for her. She would rather see Qin Xiyue in the spotlight.

Braving the scorching sun, Lu Zhixue was drenched in sweat by the time she arrived at Huayang Palace. Qin Xiyue had just finished her lunch and was preparing for a nap. When she heard Lu Zhixue had arrived, she personally went out to welcome her in.
"The sun is so harsh. Why did you come all this way without an umbrella?" Qin Xiyue asked with concern, quickly ordering her palace attendant to bring them tea.
