Inside the palace.
Empress Jiang's cold eyes swept over the palace maids, who hastily retreated in terror.
Immediately afterward, her gaze landed on Yan Lin.
"If you summoned me here today to speak such meaningless words, then I should leave now."
Yan Lin didn't look at her directly, his voice ice cold.
"Ha," Empress Jiang sneered, "I've battled in the harem for so many years, defeated so many despicable women, yet I can't control my own son. It's been five years; this must be the first time you've stepped into Jiangxin Palace, right…"
As she spoke, Empress Jiang began to reminisce about the past.
Yan Lin's expression grew even colder: "Speak of her affairs, and I have no patience to reminisce with you!"
Interrupted, Empress Jiang's face grew even uglier.
She snorted coldly, speaking with disdain: "You're still fixated on that dead wretch."
"I advise you to watch your mouth."
