Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace-Chapter 236 - 235 Chen Hong is a Fake Eunuch

Cai Si thought for a while.

In the end, he still felt that their side couldn't make the first move.

Instead, he had to borrow the emperor's blade.

As for how to borrow it, it would depend on the research.

...

Chen Mansion.

Because Zhao Fujin's previous disruption.

So Zhao Jiangning's left heart wasn't completely healed.

Only today did Chen Mo manage to heal it, but it also led to the right heart being only half-treated. The remaining half would have to wait until tomorrow.

Looking at Zhao Jiangning lying on the bed, utterly exhausted, her clothes disheveled, revealing large patches of white skin, Chen Mo pulled the nearby quilt over her and said, "Your Highness, what if he finds out about today's matter? Would he be so angry as to come back to life?"

This matter was already extremely shameful, and now Chen Mo mentioned her deceased husband, causing Zhao Jiangning's face to instantly flush red, saying:

"Don't say it, don't say it."

But Chen Mo didn't listen, "He died in battle, but I see Your Highness isn't sad at all."

"Also, I heard that Your Highness didn't have a good relationship with the Prince Consort and was even abused by him. Now that he's dead, it should be a relief for you.

If there were still feelings, you wouldn't have accepted such intimate healing from me."

Chen Mo's words were like tearing away Zhao Jiangning's only cover of shame, making her feel like a wanton woman seducing Chen Mo.

Crying, she pleaded, "Don't say it, I beg you, don't say it."

And just when Zhao Jiangning felt utterly ashamed, Chen Mo changed his expression, smiling, "Your Highness, I was joking with you. If your experience happened to other women, they would do the same as you.

I understand Your Highness."

Zhao Jiangning said nothing, looking at Chen Mo with a complex expression.

As her strength slowly returned, Zhao Jiangning seemed to think of something, "Chen Hong, why didn't you make me drink medicine this time during my treatment?"

Hearing this, Chen Mo's heart was suddenly guilty, but his face remained calm, "That's because I've broken through to become an Innate Martial Artist, and no longer need medicinal assistance."

"Really?" Zhao Jiangning looked suspicious.

"Of course, how could I dare deceive Your Highness." Chen Mo coughed, then said, "Your Highness, it's getting late, you should leave now. Otherwise, the maids you brought might get suspicious."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jiangning exclaimed in surprise and hurried to get up.

She had spent some time discussing matters with Chen Mo earlier.

Then, Chen Mo treated her alone, which took some time.

Altogether, it took nearly an hour.

Being alone with a man for an hour.

Even with Chen Mo's identity as a "eunuch," it would still arouse gossip.

But she hadn't arranged her dress and her strength hadn't fully returned. As she got up, the quilt slid off her, exposing her snow-white skin in front of Chen Mo's eyes again.

Chen Mo unapologetically appreciated the view without looking away.

"Don't... don't look..." Zhao Jiangning glanced down at herself, feeling extremely embarrassed and hastily tidied her dress.

As Chen Mo escorted Zhao Jiangning out.

Chun Lan and the others saw Zhao Jiangning's flushed face and immediately looked suspicious.

This made Zhao Jiangning wish she could dig a hole to hide in.

After Zhao Jiangning left, Chun Lan couldn't help but ask Chen Mo, "What's wrong with Prince De Ning?"

"Maybe it's because of the Prince Consort's departure, she's feeling sad." Chen Mo replied casually and looked at the delicate Chun Lan, the heart fire ignited during Zhao Jiangning's treatment flaring up again.

And towards Chun Lan, Chen Mo didn't hold back, his roguish gaze roaming over her body.

When Chun Lan noticed this, her face began to heat up as she felt her waist being wrapped by a large hand, her feet leaving the ground.

Chun Lan immediately cried out, her shoes flying off her feet.

Chen Mo hoisted Chun Lan onto his shoulder, used a bit of force to pat her derrière, and said, "Don't move, be good. Today, the master will pamper you well."

Chun Lan's face was as red as it could drip water, she said in a trembling voice, "Master, it's... it's still broad daylight."

But Chen Mo no longer listened to her, carrying her back to the room where Zhao Jiangning had been, throwing her onto the bed, and then pounced on her.

...

Weiyang Palace.

Xiao Qing'Er walked softly into the inner hall of the bedchamber.

What surprised Xiao Qing'Er was that the Empress was actually practicing martial arts, her breath was steady, and there seemed to be signs of a breakthrough.

Xiao Qing'Er waited quietly by her side, protecting her, not daring to make a sound.

This wait lasted half an hour.

Xiao Yunxi slowly opened her eyes, naturally sensing Xiao Qing'Er's presence, sighed, and said to herself, "I have been neglecting cultivation on ordinary days, finally feeling the breakthrough today, but it ended in failure."

Xiao Yunxi failed to break through to the Fourth Grade Martial Artist.

Xiao Qing'Er listened quietly and only after she finished did she say, "Since the Empress has already sensed the barrier, it's only a matter of time before the breakthrough. Try it a few more times, and success will come."

Xiao Yunxi smiled, stood up, and then said, "Is there something you need?"

"The old madam has sent a letter." Xiao Qing'Er presented the letter.

The old madam mentioned by Xiao Qing'Er was Xiao Yunxi's mother.

After receiving the letter, Xiao Qing'Er also retreated.

After reading the letter, Xiao Yunxi raised an eyebrow, "Mother is inviting me for a lakeside stroll tomorrow?"

Immediately, Xiao Yunxi's eyes lit up.

She had been fretting over not having a chance to see Chen Mo, and now the opportunity had arrived.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yunxi suddenly became a bit impatient.

"Why is today passing so slowly..."

...

Meanwhile.

Chen Mo also received a letter from the Xiao Mansion.

"Qingxin Lake..." After reading the letter, Chen Mo rubbed his nose, his eyes also showed a hint of eagerness.

It seemed that he couldn't visit Gao Fen's grave tomorrow.

...

The thirty-second day of the great chaos.

The rumor about Chen Hong being a Fake Eunuch spread in the palace.

The civil and military officials were all shocked upon hearing this.

If this were true, Chen Hong would be guilty of deceiving the emperor.

Not only that, but Chen Hong had served the Empress in Weiyang Palace for so long — if he were a Fake Eunuch, it wouldn't just be a matter of losing his head; his entire family would follow suit.

When Ye Wanqiu and Xiao Yunxi heard this, their faces turned pale.

But soon after the news spread, Xiao Yunxi had just left the palace when the news came from the palace that it was a rumor, and all the rumormongers were imprisoned.

The emperor personally refuted the rumor, allowing the officials to calm down.

However, Xiao Yunxi and Ye Wanqiu were utterly surprised.

Could they not tell if it was a rumor or not?
