Ji Hongxiu sighed softly, murmuring to herself, "Enough, thinking too much is useless, better to let things take their course..."
Unconsciously, the handsome face appeared in her mind.
When the next Dao Pattern acts up, will I be able to see him?
In the past, she would avoid the pain from Karma Fire Burning God, even felt fear, but now there was an anticipation she hasn’t realized...
...
...
Tiandu City, Chen Mansion.
After undergoing rounds of interrogation from Chen Zhuo and He Yuzhi, Chen Mo vowed promisingly that there was absolutely nothing inappropriate between him and the Daoist Venerable or the Empress, thus barely escaping disaster...
Watching Chen Mo’s departing figure, the two furrowed their brows.
Clearly, they didn’t believe a word of the boy’s tales.
"What on earth is going on?" Chen Zhuo rubbed his temples, his head aching.
Though the reasons were unclear, it was certain that the relationship between these three was exceptionally unusual.
"Mo’er has exceptional talent, and handsome looks, being chosen by the Empress as a concubine is understandable." He Yuzhi mused, "However, from the Empress’s attitude, it seems their relationship is not as simple as a fleeting affair."
"Moreover, the Empress rejected the alliance between the Chen and Shen Families, and even asked me about future daughter-in-law requirements..."
"Could it be..."
Thinking of this, He Yuzhi swallowed nervously, his throat tightening.
Could the Empress be aiming for the Chen Family Wife position?!
If one day she really enters through the door, how would their relationship be defined?
Consort Yu calls her mother, she calls Consort Yu Empress, each addressing the other as such?
That’s too absurd!
He Yuzhi shuddered, not daring to think further, quickly banishing this rebellious thought from his mind.
"Impossible."
"The Empress has expansive plans and high ambitions, how could she be entangled in matters of love?"
Chen Zhuo fiddled with the teacup, shaking his head, "Besides, no matter what, the Emperor is still around, the Six Palaces have the Empress presiding, the Empress wouldn’t do such things..."
"However, attention must be paid to the Daoist Venerable."
"Tianshu Pavilion excels at divination and calculation, perhaps they’re playing a big game..."
He Yuzhi furrowed his brows, helplessly saying, "This brat not only provokes Qingxuan but even her master... Our small temple, Chen Family, can’t accommodate these few great Buddha statues!"
"It’s all because of your spoiling!" Chen Zhuo flicked his sleeve, sternly saying, "I’ve said before, indulgence is akin to harming him, without your constant indulgence, how would he end up like this?"
He Yuzhi glanced at him, saying faintly, "Who was bragging about tiger father, no poor son earlier? Seeing your son so charming, you seem quite proud?"
Chen Zhuo’s expression stiffened, he cleared his throat, "You misheard, I said ’tiger father produces a worthless son’, my single-minded devotion he hasn’t learned at all..."
He Yuzhi sneered, "Still being stubborn, just wait for the evening’s..."
