Song Yan was conferred the title of a Secondary Fifth Rank official and started attending court.
Shen Jingxian happened to see her after court once, and Song Yan looked perfectly suited in her court clothes.
The two exchanged a glance and smiled, and from afar, Song Yan performed a respectful bow towards Shen Jingxian, her demeanor showing great promise!
However, because Song Yan officially became a civil servant, she got busy every day, and Shen Jingxian could only see her occasionally.
Pan Jiaojiao also disappeared; she used to like visiting her in the palace, but now even if Shen Jingxian went to Prince Jing Mansion, she couldn't find her.
According to Princess Jing, Pan Jiaojiao was doing something that could enrich the National Treasury, and she had already accomplished more than half of it.
Pan Jiaojiao vowed not to return without success, feeling unworthy to meet the Princess otherwise.
