"His Highness is very lenient with me..."
"What else?"
"His Highness is good looking, and has a generous bosom..."
"...Anything else?" The Empress’s pretty face flushed slightly.
Chen Mo was already dazed by the dense incense, speaking incoherently: "His Highness’s figure is perfect, big chest, shapely buttocks, soft and bouncy, feels great to the touch."
"?"
"Lips seem to be smeared with honey, so sweet to kiss."
"??"
"Also has sensitive skin, with surprising moisture output, truly the best of the best..."
"???"
"Stop, stop talking!"
The Empress didn’t expect him to speak so brazenly, her cheeks felt like they were on fire, she hurriedly extinguished the incense.
The whole ’Heart-Seeking Incense’ had nearly burnt out, leaving only a mere inch.
She waved her sleeve, a gentle breeze arose, dispersing the lingering scent in the air.
Chen Mo’s gaze gradually cleared up, recalling what he had just said, feeling somewhat apprehensive.
It’s over!
Said everything, whether right or wrong! This time, truly done for!
...
Silence descended in the great hall.
Chen Mo hung his head, uneasy, the Empress’s gaze shifted, feeling a bit guilty, neither spoke for a moment.
After a long while.
"Your Highness..."
"Chen Mo..."
Both spoke simultaneously, glanced at each other, then unconsciously averted their eyes.
An odd atmosphere permeated between them.
"Ahem."
The Empress reluctantly composed herself, cleared her throat, and said deeply: "Chen Mo, are you aware of your crime?"
Mr. Chen, with a spine full of pride, his knees went weak, decisively crouched down and pleaded, "Your servant spoke out of turn, I hope Your Highness forgives!"
The Empress remained expressionless, her voice cold: "Just a slip of the tongue? You dared to insult me... Even if I took you to the Western market square for beheading, it wouldn’t be too much!"
Though they say a gentleman judges by actions not intentions, but he touched and kissed, naturally he dared not argue... Bowing his head, he said: "I deserve ten thousand deaths, awaiting Your Highness’s divine judgement."
"Hmph, you definitely deserve death!"
The Empress glared at Chen Mo with hatred.
This little thief indeed has extreme audacity, his mind filled with filthy thoughts!
Yet seeing him bowing silently, the Empress’s gaze softened, changed the tone and said:
"Considering your great merits in saving the people of Linyang County from calamity, this time counteracting the fault, I won’t hold it against you, but be cautious with your words and actions in the future! If you dare to offend again, you will be severely punished!"
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your mercy."
Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
He brought Jiao Rui back to Tiandu City to employ the imperial court against the Gu God Sect.
As for credit, he didn’t really care much from the start.
