Chapter 263: Chapter 130: The Empress’s Bottom Line! Little Thief, This Palace Really Has to Control You! (6K)

Dong—

The sound of the gong rang out, marking the end of the second round of trials.

Sun Senior Palace Lady came before the tent, just as Chen Mo lifted the curtain and walked out, the two met face to face.

"Sun Senior Palace Lady."

"Hundred Household Officer Chen."

Noticing that Chen Mo’s expression was somewhat peculiar, Sun Senior Palace Lady didn’t think much of it, assuming he was worried about the upcoming trials, and comforted him by saying:

"Hundred Household Officer Chen has already brought glory to the court by defeating the chief of Tianshu Pavilion. Do not feel pressured; just do your best, His Highness will see it all."

Chen Mo cupped his hands and said, "I will certainly try my utmost not to disappoint His Highness’s expectations."

"Very good."

Sun Senior Palace Lady nodded.

Just as Chen Mo was about to leave, Sun Senior Palace Lady seemed to remember something and furrowed her brow, "By the way, there’s something I’ve always wanted to ask... Hundred Household Officer Chen, do I seem to be very old?"

?

Chen Mo’s expression froze.

Previously, in front of Chen Mansion, Sun Senior Palace Lady and Xu Qingyi’s carriage collided, and casually mentioned that she was old... Unexpectedly, this Senior Palace Lady bears grudges?

Sure enough, she inherits the subtle tricks of the Empress!

Being the close female officer of the Empress, her status is extraordinary, and she has often guided him before, so it’s necessary to maintain a good relationship.

Chen Mo cleared his throat seriously and said, "Senior Palace Lady, your words are misguided. You are in the prime of your youth, with no trace of time left upon you; rather, you’ve developed a more outstanding charm that many young ladies can’t compare to even half your grace."

"Moreover, as the chief female officer who organizes palace affairs and resolves His Highness’s troubles, your virtuous name is praised within the palace, and I deeply admire you!"

"..."

Sun Senior Palace Lady was flattered and felt dizzy hearing such praises.

No matter if these words were sincere; just hearing them was soothing to the spirit.

Looking at his handsome and sincere face, Sun Senior Palace Lady smiled and said, "Hundred Household Officer Chen, you flatter me too much. The next round of trials is about to begin, hurry and prepare, don’t delay the important matters."

"I take my leave."

Chen Mo cupped his hands and turned to leave.

"Women are like wine; the longer the vintage, the richer the aroma. Hundred Household Officer Chen does have some discernment... Hmph, Xu Qingyi, that little girl, is still wet behind the ears, how can she compare to me?"

Sun Senior Palace Lady’s lips curled, her steps now lightened.

...

Inside the phoenix tent, the atmosphere was quiet.

The Empress leaned against the back of the chair, her slender hand supporting her chin, her gaze unfocused, lost in thought.

Sun Senior Palace Lady lifted the curtain and stepped inside, bowed and said, "Your Highness, the second round of trials has ended."

"Mm."
