The Empress smiled warmly and said, "I have no say over the Yukunlun Palace."
"They resent you, Mother, and it's affecting Father!"
"Nonsense, why would they hate me?" The Empress shook her head and laughed lightly.
"Mother, you can't hide it from me." Li Miaotan snorted, "I was foolish before and didn't see the subtlety."
The interactions between the Yukunlun Palace and the Empress seemed normal.
The Yukunlun Palace often sent disciples to visit her.
She also frequently visited the Yukunlun Palace, unlike the Empresses of other dynasties who were often restricted.
But having followed the Empress since childhood, her talent made her far sharper and more intelligent than ordinary people.

She couldn't understand initially, but as her Phoenix bloodline awakened, she became smarter and clearer, breaking the constraints and seeing the truth.
