章節 297: Chapter 297: Depart To Phoenix Empire

After the meeting concluded, Aria's father and uncle discreetly pulled her aside into a quiet corner of the palace.

"Alright, can you explain what's going on, daughter?" Ashter demanded, his tone both concerned and firm.

"Yes, Aria," Astrid added, crossing his arms. "Where did you two go, and who is this new woman? How did she suddenly become an Empress?"

Their expressions reflected their unease. They thought Aria might be too soft, allowing Aengus to do as he pleased.

"If this continues, won't your position as the primary wife be at risk?" Ashter asked bluntly.

Though Aengus had officially declared both women as Empresses, Ashter and Astrid remained skeptical. How could there be two equal Empresses in an Imperial Harem? Traditionally, there was always a single main wife, with others relegated to the rank of concubines.

Their skepticism and concern were evident as they awaited Aria's response.
