"What do you mean by 'catching phoenix tendons'..."
Yu Youhan hadn't heard of this technique before; just based on the name, it didn't seem very proper.
However, she hesitated for a moment, then lay flat on the bed as Chen Mo instructed, stretching her long legs straight.
Chen Mo took out the leftover Tongluo Oil that Shen Zhixia had used last time from the bedside cabinet, evenly applied it to his palms, and worked it up her smooth calves. With the dual effect of the oil and silk stockings, the touch became even more delicate and smooth.
As his hands continued to move upwards, the ticklish sensation grew stronger.
Yu Youhan's cheeks flushed, her breathing somewhat rapid, her lips opened lightly, she softly said, "I hear you haven't been idle while I was away?"
?
Chen Mo paused in his movements, cautiously asked, "Does Empress mean..."
"Didn't you join the Xuanhuang Army and annihilate a Barbarian Tribe in the Southern Wilderness?" Yu Youhan said, "And you achieved the remarkable feat of zero casualties; this matter has spread to the Capital City."
"So that's what you're talking about." Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
"What else? Did you do something bad behind my back?" Yu Youhan raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Ahem, of course not, do I look like the type?" Chen Mo chuckled awkwardly, thinking of recent events, he couldn't help but feel a bit guilty.
Back then, after catching the mastermind behind the scenes in Bailu City, seeing the situation was settled, Empress went back to the Capital City first.
While he first dabbled in stocks with the Empress Baby, then did Dual Cultivation with Ye Zi'e, went to Martial Saint Mountain, and also had a disciple-teacher dinner; he really hadn't had a moment's rest...
The original plan upon returning to the Capital was to report the matter with Households Commander Ye to Empress truthfully, after all, it was an accident, just needed a good explanation, Empress should understand.
But never expected, Empress would come to East Victory State and catch him and Daoist Venerable red-handed!
"They probably still haven't completely calmed down yet, bringing this up now is simply adding fuel to the fire, better wait for an opportunity in the future." Chen Mo thought to himself.
Worried that the Empress would continue questioning, he massaged the leg muscles and shifted the topic, "Heard from Her Majesty the Empress, you struck down Qi Lianshan and split Qianji Palace in half? We had agreed to wait for the right moment to avoid alerting the enemy."
"Wu Lie has been restless lately, if not given a hint, who knows what he might do..."
Yu Youhan's eyes flashed with a cold gleam and she said, "Moreover, opportunities aren't to be waited upon, they must be created. If we don't cause a big stir, how will those snakes and rats come to light?"
Chen Mo frowned, "But if anything happens to the Emperor, you could be accused of regicide, potentially rendering years of scheming useless, isn't this too risky?"
"Don't underestimate Wu Lie." Yu Youhan shook her head, "Not only is he unscathed, but his health has improved. He even attended the morning assembly himself the other day."
"What?!"
Chen Mo immediately felt a chill.
