	In 1927, she hired [[Zhang Damin]], the shady member of a family she had ties with, to steal a ~~sescret~~ package destined for her husband's successor [[Chiang Kai-shek]]. She wanted to prevent its content, an offer of admission to the Templar Order as Grand Master of the Shangai Rite, from ever reaching him. Through her sister, who was married to Chiang, Soong had come to believe that Chiang was a megalomaniac with no loyalties to anything but his own ambitions and that he would betray the Templars' values the moment he seized their power. Zhang tasked his wife, [[Ruan Lingyu]], to steal the box carrying the package from the young Templar courier [[Darius Gift]], enlisting the aid of the [[Green Gang]] in the process, and Soong eventually obtained the box.<ref name="Templars Vol 1">''[[Assassin's Creed: Templars]]'' – ''[[Assassin's Creed Templars Volume 1: Black Cross\|Black Cross]]''</ref>.		In 1927, she hired [[Zhang Damin]], the shady member of a family she had ties with, to steal a secret package destined for her husband's successor [[Chiang Kai-shek]].

	However, the [[Black Cross]], who was investigating the theft, discovered her involvement through her trusted man, [[Tsai]], and came to her house to reclaim the box on behalf of Gift. After warning him that the Templars were unwise to put their trust into Chiang, Soong gave the box to her fellow Templar, revealing that it was in fact empty. The package, carrying the letter alongside the Templar ring of the late Grand Master [[Thaddeus Gift]] still wrapped around Thaddeus's severed finger, had been stolen by Lingyu. As it would turn out, Soong's intervention was unnecessary; she was right about Chiang's character, but these qualities compelled him to reject the invitation to the order outright when he learned of it through his ally, [[Du Yuesheng]], the mob boss of the Green Gang.<ref name="Templars Vol 1" />		However, the [[Black Cross]], who was investigating the theft, discovered her involvement through her trusted man, [[Tsai]], and came to her house to reclaim the box on behalf of Gift.
