After departing from the Wang Residence, Yang Ning opted to make a brief stop at Lady Guo's boutique, conveniently located on her way back to the palace. It had been a few weeks since she attended the tea party, and after that, she hadn't had the chance to visit her boutique once because she was busy with the palace work and management. Seizing the opportunity while outside the palace, Yang Ning was determined to take advantage of the opportunity to explore the boutique that had received numerous praises.
In the past, Yang Ning lacked the freedom to venture outside the palace at her own will. She was still accommodating to the palace rules and lacked the authority to make significant decisions. The former Empress had never bestowed upon her the power to share the burden of managing internal palace affairs. This absence of empowerment hindered Yang Ning's reputation and authority within the palace.
