But who saw the bargaining chips I offered to get Shen Zhao? I was practically giving up control of the Dao Domain to Yu Xiyan.

It's not that I'm trying to take credit, but I want you all to know how naive I, Luo Pianhong, may be.

They can distinguish right from wrong, and feelings are something that needs to be cultivated.

You didn't even give me a chance to train you before jumping to such a conclusion?

So please, I'm begging you, please stop stopping me. If all else fails, I'll kneel down and beg you, okay?

Having said that, Luo Pianhong really intended to kneel down before the two emperors.

But the next moment, a surge of Daoist power swept over her entire body, preventing her from kneeling down.

Song Yanran said, "The kneeling is unnecessary. But you've had intimate relations with other men. Do you still have the face to go see Shen Zhao?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Pianhong was immediately startled: "Fine, I knew you had feelings for me!"

"Then let me tell you again, I'm completely innocent, I have absolutely no relationship with that man."

At this point, Luo Pianhong seemed to feel itchy all over again and wanted to jump into the Heavenly Pool to wash herself again.

Mu Qiuyao immediately became interested: "What? There's such a story? What exactly happened? Tell me about it."

Song Yanran immediately recounted Luo Pianhong's ordeal to Mu Qiuyao word for word.

"Hahaha."

Upon hearing this, Mu Qiuyao burst out laughing.

Seeing Luo Pianhong's face flushed red, he shook his head and said, "That's not right of you."

How can someone who can't even recognize a person have the face to see Shen Zhao? How are we supposed to explain this to Shen Zhao?

"You said you slept with another man who looks a lot like you, wasn't that intentional?"

Luo Pianhong immediately became anxious: "I'll reiterate this again, I really didn't sleep with him! Jiang Qingluan can vouch for me!"

Mu Qiuyao squinted: "But Qingluan isn't here now, so who can vouch for you? Besides, even if we take a step back..."

Even if nothing really happened, mistaking someone for someone else is going too far. Don't you know this kid's usual behavior?

Song Yanran: "Little girl, did you hear that? It's not just me targeting you now."

"The problem lies with you. If Shen Zhao knew that, wouldn't he feel resentful?"

Luo Pianhong became completely anxious, pointing at Mu Qiuyao and saying, "Don't say you don't have it, even if you did, so what? Don't forget, in your previous life you weren't..."

"Shut up!"

Before she could finish speaking, a sudden oppressive aura descended upon Song Yanran, stopping her from saying anything more.

"They're getting more and more unruly. How can they just say things like that?"

Even if Song Yanran disliked Mu Qiuyao, she wouldn't make fun of her past life's tragedy.

After all, Mu Qiuyao was the real victim in the whole incident.

Any woman who has gone through that kind of experience will find it unbearably painful to recall. How can you continue to reopen that wound?

Seeing Mu Qiuyue's pale face and gradually dimming eyes, Luo Pianhong realized that he had said something he shouldn't have in his haste, and immediately apologized to her.

"Sister Mu, I didn't mean it, please don't be angry. I... I was just in a hurry, please don't take it to heart..."

Upon hearing this, Mu Qiuyao composed herself and forced a smile: "It's all in the past. The boy doesn't care about my past life."

Right now, all I can think about is him, but it's really okay.

Then he said to Song Yanran, "After thinking about it carefully, what Nizi said makes some sense."

No matter how you look at it, it seems like we're in the slightest bit of the wrong.

"Why don't we take her with us to the Southern Region and ask the boy what he means?"

Song Yanran looked up, and in the instant her eyes met Mu Qiuyao's, she understood the other's intention.

Now that Luo Pianhong already knows Shen Zhao's secret, it's safer to keep her by his side just in case, and to prevent her from spreading it around in a fit of anger.

It must be said that these two empresses are indeed formidable figures. Although they don't get along well in daily life, they share common ground on matters of principle and have a great understanding of each other.

"Then follow me."

Upon receiving the promise, Luo Pianhong was overjoyed.

She was overjoyed: "Great! Shen Zhao, I can finally be with you. You have to take responsibility after you get me!"

This time, I'm going to devour you completely, leaving not a single drop.

Little did they know, Shen Zhao had already left the Southern Region and was heading towards the Eastern Region.
