After Wen Shichu left, the emperor ordered Su Peisheng to investigate.

The origin of the goose feather cushion was soon discovered, and the Queen gave the cushion to Noble Lady Fucha in front of everyone that day.

When the emperor heard the reply, he sighed deeply, touched the pine nuts in his arms, and ordered: "Call the queen to the Yangxin Palace."

The emperor didn't care about Noble Lady Fucha's children, but Concubine Wan's children.

If the Queen takes action again, the Emperor might not be able to protect Wanpin's child.

After the queen arrived and stood up after performing her greetings, she heard a meow.

Then, I saw Songzi walking towards me leisurely with a cat-like step.

Matsuko circled around the queen and then leisurely ran back to the emperor's arms.

The queen glanced at the goose feather cushion on the dragon table and said with a forced smile, "Your Majesty, I wonder why you want me here?"

The emperor picked up the pillow and threw it in front of the queen.

The queen was not hit, but she knelt down and asked, "Your Majesty, this goose feather cushion..."

The emperor looked at the queen coldly, and after a few breaths he said, "I care about Wanpin's child. If Wanpin's child is lost, I will depose her."

The queen looked up suddenly and said in disbelief, "Your Majesty!"

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Alright, you have always been in poor health, so just rest in Jingren Palace."

The queen knew that she was under house arrest by the emperor.

The emperor had already opened the memorial and stopped talking. The empress also knew that the emperor's order could not be changed even if she begged and cried.

The queen bowed and said, "I will take my leave."

After the empress left, the emperor approved two more memorials, saying, "Bring Concubine Fang out, promote her to the rank of imperial concubine, and grant her the title of living in Chunxi Palace."

Su Peisheng glanced at the emperor and bowed, "Yes."

From then on, Songzi lived in the Yangxin Palace and was served by Su Peisheng and Xiao Xiazi.

Occasionally, when Zhen Huan came to the Yangxin Palace to accompany the emperor, she would see Songzi curled up on the dragon chair or on the dragon table. But the emperor did not show any displeasure, and sometimes he would hold Songzi in his arms and rub him.

Zhen Huan touched her belly and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to like cats."

The emperor, who looked like a fat orange, said lazily, "I didn't like it before, but this cat has won my heart."

After saying that, the emperor rubbed the pine nuts again.

Seeing that the emperor was in a good mood, Zhen Huan smiled and said, "Your Majesty has compassion for all living beings. I am just moved."

Zhen Huan thought of Concubine Fang again and asked, "Will Concubine Fang also have her canonization ceremony on the same day as me?"

The emperor paused and said, "Fangpin has not yet adapted to life after coming out of the cold palace. Her canonization ceremony will be waived, and she will only stay in Chunxi Palace from now on."

The two talked for a while, and then Zhen Huan said goodbye. The emperor continued to read memorials and discuss matters with his ministers.

Ten days after the ceremony of conferring the title of concubine to Zhen Huan ended, it was the day when Songzi could appear in her dreams again.

At night, Matsuko entered the emperor's dream.

In the emperor's dream, the emperor turned into a lazy big orange cat.

Songzi circled around the big orange cat with its eyes closed, and finally stopped in front of the big orange cat, speaking in human language: "Would you like to make a wish for me to grow a ninth tail?"

When the big orange cat heard this, he opened his eyes lazily, hummed, and closed his eyes again.

Songzi was very happy and couldn't help meowing a few times.

The big orange cat purred a few times and said, "May Matsuko grow a ninth tail."

As the big orange cat's voice fell, Songzi felt that her body was enveloped by a circle of golden light for a few breaths, and her whole body felt warm, as if she was soaking in a hot spring.
