Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace Chapter 576 - 662

Don’t think Zhao Jiangning didn’t notice Chen Mo and Xiao Yunxi whispering to each other; she just chose not to ntion it at the mont.

"Just chatting about so private matters, asking about that girl from Jiangnan," Chen Mo made up casually.

Zhao Jiangning pursed her lips, sowhat skeptical.

Walking along the main path of the harem, palace maids frequently passed by. Seeing Zhao Jiangning holding Chen Mo’s arm, their cheeks flushed red, murmuring to themselves how bold the two were, while respectfully saying out loud, "Greetings to Prince Zhen Nan, and Prince De Ning."

Zhao Jiangning nodded but didn’t let go of Chen Mo’s arm. People’s courage increases with their status and identity. Now that Chen Mo was Prince Zhen Nan, standing at the pinnacle of the Great Song Court Hall, she, as his consort, naturally felt a bit more arrogant.

Moreover, since everyone knew about her and Chen Mo’s relationship, what was wrong with holding his arm in public?

Perhaps it was also because of all the grievances and hardships she suffered since childhood; now she just wanted to seek happiness in her own way.

"Do you believe they’ll say you’re shaless behind your back?" Chen Mo waved his hand, dismissing the palace maids, laughing lightly. The palace is still quite conservative.

"Let them say it; after all, it’s their mouths, and I can’t control it. There’s even talk about you and the Empress Dowager... having an affair," Zhao Jiangning said, pretending to inadvertently.

After speaking, she glanced at Chen Mo’s eyes, always watching for his reaction.

Chen Mo’s gaze paused slightly, then he laughed, "How can rumors be true? Jiangning, you don’t believe it, do you?"

Unless caught red-handed, he wouldn’t discuss this matter with anyone, not even with his own woman.

Zhao Jiangning caught this subtle change and said, "It’s fine if you don’t admit it; I’m not bothered, nor am I angry with you. After all, the Empress Dowager also needs soone to rely on..."

As she spoke, she leaned close to Chen Mo’s ear and whispered, asking if he would like her and the Empress Dowager to serve him together in bed...

Upon hearing this, a surge arose in Chen Mo’s lower abdon, almost blurting it out. Luckily, he realized in ti that this was her provocation and imdiately lifted his hand, opening her collar and putting his hand in to warm her:

"You little devil, daring to tease even ."

Noticing Chen Mo’s actions, Zhao Jiangning blushed a little, surprised at his boldness, but having not seen him for over a month, she sowhat missed him, her eyes holding a different aning:

"Don’t... don’t do it here."

Chen Mo: "..."

He glanced around, knowing so palaces in the harem were empty, wrapped his arm around Zhao Jiangning’s waist, flew over the high wall, and landed on the other side.

This courtyard was empty; Chen Mo sensed no one was there.

Chen Mo originally wanted to take her inside, but Zhao Jiangning turned around and untied Chen Mo’s belt with her hands.

Chen Mo blinked. Goodness, right across the wall, there were palace maids and eunuchs passing by...

Are you that eager?

But as a man, he didn’t decline.

He pressed Zhao Jiangning’s head...

...

...

Two palace maids were walking along East Hua Avenue when suddenly one stopped and softly asked, "Zhu’er, did you hear sothing?"

"What sound?"

"It sounds like a woman crying." The palace maid pointed at the wall, "It seems to be coming from the other side."

Zhu’er shook her head, saying, "This is Qian’an Palace. Since Consort Liu was sentenced to death by the Late Emperor, no one has moved in."

"Consort Liu? Is she the one who was found pregnant with a royal heir and then sentenced to death by the Late Emperor?" The palace maid shivered.

Zhu’er nodded abruptly. Another sobbing sound ca, and the two won exchanged glances, their faces suddenly changing, and scread ’ghost’ before fleeing in panic.

Two intervals later, Chen Mo felt comfortable all over, tidied his robes, and after Zhao Jiangning finished straightening up, he wrapped his arm around her and climbed over the wall again.

Zhao Jiangning still had sweat on her forehead, her legs a bit weak. After so long without intimacy, her head was still a bit dizzy, she pouted, "It’s all your fault. We almost got caught."

"How is it my fault? You were the one who couldn’t keep quiet."

"You... bullied . How could I... endure..."

With one word after another, the two walked farther and farther.

...

After leaving the palace, Chen Mo asked Zhao Jiangning to go ho first; he still had to visit the Princess’s Mansion.

He went to the Princess’s Mansion mainly to see how she was progressing in cultivating "Spear Erges Like a Dragon" and to et Wei Ying, whom she kept thinking about.

Zhao Qianyi’s progress was a bit slow. It had been over a month, and she had only reached the beginner level of "Spear Erges Like a Dragon." Since Chen Mo hadn’t seen anyone else practice it, comparing it with himself showed it was quite slow.

But Zhao Qianyi was satisfied, even though she was just a beginner, she could feel this move had already surpassed the Celestial Tier martial arts categories, with power beyond it.

Zhao Qianyi cared much about all the common people. She even talked to Chen Mo about the current situation, asking when he planned to send troops to quell the dostic rebellion.

Chen Mo replied he would wait until Huangfu Hao led the troops back, and after a period of rest, they could start preparing.

Zhao Qianyi glanced at Chen Mo a few tis, "Are you planning to lead the army personally again this ti?"

Chen Mo nodded. It was a great opportunity to test the strength of his Foundation Establishnt.

Seeing this, Zhao Qianyi sighed and said, "For those in power, they should oversee everything from behind the scenes. Why go out and fight yourself? Life can’t always be smooth sailing; success can co ten tis, a hundred, but a single mistake can lead to total defeat.

How many great n all over the world, having smooth lives, ended up stumbling over small matters? If you keep this up, sooner or later, the won in your household will end up as widows."

Chen Mo: "..."

Zhao Qianyi continued, "Take Xiao Yunqi for example, in his youth, he fought everywhere, didn’t he retreat to the background later on?"

Chen Mo understood her concerns, knowing it was for his own good. Not everything needed his personal involvent.

He said, "But if I don’t go, who should lead the troops? I don’t have many First Grade Martial Artists under ."

Zhao Qianyi rolled her eyes at Chen Mo, "Has this palace been guarding the Tiger Pass for over ten years for nothing?"

Chen Mo touched his nose, not arguing with her, and earnestly said, "Alright, this ti I’ll let you go, and I’ll support you from behind."

"It’s good that you can listen," Zhao Qianyi smiled faintly.

...

After leaving the Princess’s Mansion, Chen Mo summoned Quan Qiyang, instructing him to send the people from Mo Bingtai to Jizhou, to gather information on the main leaders of the Yellow Turban Bandits for him.

Even before the troops move, intelligence must be gathered.

And not to worry him about money matters. With the treasure from Nan Zhou, Chen Mo was soon going to receive money from the Wan Kingdom; he’s truly not short of money, so he told Quan Qiyang to use whatever money could buy.

Quan Qiyang respectfully agreed.

Before leaving, rather unexpectedly, he said to Chen Mo, "Prince, co and visit the mansion when you have ti. My sister returned from Nanyang."
