Chen Mo's lips curved into a smile as his fingertips parted the collar of the palace gown, revealing a patch of glaringly white skin, and he said with a playful grin, "Since I've been so obedient, doesn't Your Majesty think it's appropriate to offer so reward?"
The Empress's cheeks were flushed crimson.
She certainly knew what this little thief was up to, and was about to refuse, but suddenly thought of sothing and beca hesitant.
After a long ti of hesitation, she cautiously asked, "Zhu'er won't wake up for a while, will she?"
Chen Mo replied, "Don't worry, with here, even if she wakes up, she won't notice anything unusual."
"Alright, just don't move recklessly..."
The Empress took a deep breath, crouched down, followed by the sounds of rustling clothes.
"I must be out of my mind!"
"With Zhu'er right there, I actually did sothing so shaless..."
"But in so way, doesn't this an I've won over Yu Youhan and Ji Hongxiu?"
Her cheeks felt like they were on fire as she endured the embarrassnt, lifting her ample bosom with both hands.
To speed things up, she parted her sandalwood lips—
!!!
Chen Mo felt as if he had been struck by lightning, inhaling sharply.
He had only said it casually, not expecting to actually do anything... but he never thought the always shy Empress would be so proactive?!
"This is trouble!"
"Mm, Mr. Chen..."
At this mont, Lin Jingzhu's eyelashes trembled as she woke from her trance.
Upon hearing the sound, the Empress's body trembled, her expression full of panic.
However, Chen Mo had anticipated this, raising his hand to wave gently, causing the mist in the air to thicken, completely covering the figure below the small couch, and he reassuringly ruffled her hair.
Lin Jingzhu slowly opened her eyes.
This round of expelling the Chill Toxin had taken longer than any previous session.
On one hand, through repeated treatnts, she had gradually beco more accustod and her capacity to endure had significantly strengthened. More importantly, Chen Mo's control over Qi-Blood had beco more precise and ticulous, reducing the burden on the ridians.
"Mr. Chen, I feel like this treatnt was particularly effective." Lin Jingzhu inwardly examined herself and said.
Now, the Chill Toxin near her heart ridian had been completely cleared, with only a minimal residue remaining in her limbs, insufficient to pose any real threat. Even if it were to flare up again, at most it would be uncomfortable, but no longer life-threatening.
One could almost say she's entirely healed!
After more than twenty years, the shadow looming overhead suddenly dispersed, and Lin Jingzhu couldn't help but feel excited, holding onto the big hand that rested on her heart ridian and saying tweetingly, "Husband, you're really amazing~"
At this mont, her whole body was soaked by the mist, her clothes tightly clinging to her skin, making the sensation exceptionally clear.
Chen Mo's Qi-Blood surged, causing even the Empress to suffer alongside him.
"So-so, third in the Great Yuan."
"Why not strike while the iron is hot and get rid of the last bit too?"
As he spoke, Chen Mo prepared to mobilize his Qi-Blood, only to be stopped by Lin Jingzhu.
"No rush for now."
She looked around and said, "Is Aunt gone already?"
"Uh, she left due to so urgent matters temporarily." Chen Mo realized sothing and released a stream of Primordial Qi, temporarily blocking the Empress's hearing.
Sure enough, Lin Jingzhu nestled in his arms, whispering softly in his ear, "Aunt never agreed with us being together anyway. With the Chill Toxin as an excuse, we could still et occasionally. If I'm completely healed, I'm afraid there won't be any reason to et at all."
Chen Mo thought about it and felt she had a point.
This ailnt really shouldn't be completely cured.
Lin Jingzhu's eyes were misty, her cheeks rosy as she whispered, "We haven't kissed for so long... Since Aunt is not here, just now..."
As she spoke, she simply leaned in directly.
Above was Little Grapefruit, and below was Big Bun, with Chen Mo caught in the middle, his mind a whirl.
Though his intention was to use this thod to desensitize the Empress gradually, he never thought it would jump so far, straight to enjoying both worlds... for a mont, he was unsure whether it felt like enjoynt or tornt.
"Things seem to beco increasingly chaotic..."
"Aside from these two, the master and disciple pair from Tianshu Pavilion have yet to be resolved, the identity from Moon Brilliance Sect is still unclear, not to ntion the Empress watching intently... if this continues, a disaster is truly brewing..."
"Enough, if not , then who..."
"Mm?!"
Suddenly, Chen Mo sensed sothing, his expression slightly changing as his right hand silently pressed onto the back of Lin Jingzhu's neck.
Lin Jingzhu's body stiffened before losing consciousness.
Helping her lie down on the bed, he raised his hand to disperse the mist, helped the kneeling Empress stand up, and tidied both their clothes.
The Empress was still bewildered, asking, "What happened?"
Chen Mo wiped her lips with his sleeve and transmitted a ssage, "Soone's here."
Knock, knock, knock—
Just as the words fell, the sound of knocking followed.
Outside, Sun Senior Palace Lady's voice ca, "Your Majesty the Empress, the Crown Prince requests to see you."
The Empress regained her composure, confird there were no mistakes, and spoke up, "Let them in then."
Accompanied by light footsteps, Sun Senior Palace Lady led the Crown Prince into the inner hall, and the Crown Prince bowed in greeting, "Son reports to Mother... Oh? Chen Mo, you're here too."
"Greetings to the Crown Prince." Chen Mo saluted.
"No need for formalities, I was just talking about you yesterday, glad you're back."
The Crown Prince showed a bright smile.
Since being saved by Chen Mo on Jiulong Platform, he felt increasingly reliant on this "good friend".
Sun Senior Palace Lady quietly observed the situation, seeing Lin Jingzhu lying unconscious on the small couch, her heart jolted!
Could the "rivals" have already settled their score?
But there's no need to be so ruthless, right?!
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with Miss Lin?" Sun Senior Palace Lady asked hesitantly.
"Chen Mo just helped remove her Chill Toxin, she is exhausted and health is fragile, so she was resting here for a while," explained the Empress.
"I see."
Sun Senior Palace Lady let out a breath.
The Empress looked at the Crown Prince, asking, "Why has the Crown Prince co looking for suddenly?"
Ever since the turmoil in the Capital City, the Crown Prince had stayed in Ningde Palace's side hall, rejecting all outside visitors... it was an unavoidable decision, considering the circumstances, the palace couldn't claim to be truly safe.
The Crown Prince nervously said, "Actually, it's nothing much, I just feel a bit anxious about attending court tomorrow..."
Seeing the two of them discussing state matters, Chen Mo took the opportunity to say, "Your Majesties, I shall take my leave as not to disturb you any longer."
"Hold on."
The Empress stopped him and said blandly, "Stay in the palace tonight, you and the Crown Prince can head to court tomorrow morning."
