I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 665

Chapter 665: Chapter 252: Chu Yanli: The Concubine Has Been Reserved! The Empress Baby Is Anxious!_3

Upon hearing the name "Shi Yun," Chu Yanli’s eyes turned somber, and she sneered, "That bald monk, I’ve dealt with him in the past, indeed he has some fame... Being able to overshadow him, this proves the weight of Chen Mo’s title as Martial Arts Champion..."

"Have you investigated his background? What exactly is his origin?"

"Well, it’s a bit complicated to explain..."

Zhong Lihe organized his thoughts and tried to explain as concisely as possible.

After hearing it, Chu Yanli’s expression became even more puzzled.

"You’re saying..."

"The Chen Family is part of the Imperial Consort Faction, yet they are deeply favored by the Empress, serve as the leader of the palace guards, and even have a Death Exemption Token?"

Although she hadn’t returned to the Capital City for years, she knew Yu Youhan’s methods.

That woman absolutely wouldn’t tolerate subordinates who are fence-sitters, as fence-sitters ultimately have only one end... And since the Empress and Consort Yu are like fire and water, how did Chen Mo manage to navigate both sides?

"Not only that."

Zhong Lihe added, "Recently, he severely injured Chu Heng, got impeached by the courtiers, and the Crown Prince held court sessions to protect him..."

?

Chu Yanli and Lu Shuangge exchanged a bewildered glance.

That’s a lot of information to digest...

So it’s not just navigating two sides—it’s playing all three?

What capability does this guy have to dare attack Chu Heng and even make the Eastern Royal Palace back him up?

"Merely relying on the identity of the Heavenly Element Martial Champion isn’t enough for this."

"The Taiyin Geng Metal Dragon Qi is definite in amount. A missing strand would alert Wu Lie. Since it influenced the Crown Prince to hold court, there must be knowledge of something... Could it be that a change is coming?"

Chu Yanli’s mind was restless.

"Your Highness..."

Zhong Lihe hesitated and said, "Do you remember what you said before?"

Chu Yanli returned to her senses, "Which phrase are you referring to?"

Zhong Lihe carefully watched her expression, cautiously saying, "Back then, you personally told the old servant that if someone climbs to the thirtieth floor, they have the right to be your concubine. If they succeed in reaching the top, then even marriage wouldn’t matter..."

?

Lu Shuangge glanced at Chu Yanli with a peculiar expression, "Did you really say something like that?"

Chu Yanli nodded, admitting, "That did happen. It’s mainly because Mother said I am too domineering and would end up lonely. I was unconvinced, so I said those words... But I didn’t expect someone to accomplish it so quickly."

Zhong Lihe added appropriately, "Chen Mo is a few years younger than you and currently unmarried..."

Chu Yanli thought for a moment, pondering, "Hmm, with such a talent, it’s indeed worth trying to recruit him. Besides, he is pleasing to the eye... Marriage is a bit far-fetched, but having him as a concubine isn’t bad."

"..."

Lu Shuangge’s mouth twitched.

When you say he should be a concubine, he must be willing as well, right?

Though Her Highness is attractive, her temperament is notoriously harsh in noble circles... That’s why there haven’t been any men around her all these years.

With Chen Mo’s family background and appearance, what kind of girl couldn’t he find? Why risk his life to be with a princess?

However, she dared not say this and could only stand silently by the side.

Meanwhile, what Chu Yanli was considering wasn’t this.

Being able to carry Dragon Qi physically and be the focus of three forces, Chen Mo must have a great secret hidden.

For her future plans, Chen Mo might be a crucial piece, even if unable to win him over, Wu Lie mustn’t easily succeed!

"To participate, there must be a legitimate reason."
