Chapter 697 Internal and External Troubles



Ye Chen was stunned. He didn't expect that the empress cared about him so much and even gave him two pills.

Judging from the quality of these two pills, they are definitely not ordinary.

This empress is quite generous to herself.

As if she had noticed what Ye Chen was thinking, the empress said indifferently: "Don't misunderstand me, I just don't want to be involved in more cause and effect."

Ye Chen smiled bitterly and nodded slightly. Without saying anything more, he turned and left.

He noticed that the empress seemed to like saying one thing and thinking another, and was very arrogant.

Watching Ye Chen's departing figure, Xue Yuxia finally spoke to the Empress, "Your Majesty, you are too kind to this ignorant and uneducated fellow. He was so disrespectful and even looked at Your Majesty... And you just let him go like that?"

"I am currently recruiting people. Anyone who can help me stabilize the government must be recruited and given important positions."

The empress spoke softly, and without outsiders around, her tone seemed to reveal a hint of fatigue.

The other three lineages are either putting in the work but not putting in the effort, or are secretly disobeying. Are they satisfied only if I abdicate?"

"Your Majesty, you must not think like that..." Xue Yuxia said anxiously.

The Empress raised her hand slightly and continued, "If my abdication can make the Xuanbing Divine Kingdom better and stronger, I would rather abdicate and let someone else take over. But I know that the moment I abdicate, it will be the beginning of the disintegration of the entire Xuanbing Divine Kingdom..."

At this point, her narrow, long phoenix eyes seemed to sparkle with brilliance, and she murmured, "Father, where are you now? Your daughter misses you so much, and the Xuanbing Divine Kingdom can't live without you..."
