I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 85

Chapter 85: Chapter 68: The Empress’s Thoughts! The Imperial Consort is Very Angry! (4K)_2

At this moment, Li Yuanshi pondered before continuing: "Hundred Households Chen is strong and vigorous, with boundless Qi-Blood, but his Primordial Yang is stable and unspent, at least he hasn’t had marital relations for half a year. Such self-control is truly astonishing."

"However, in Martial Arts cultivation, harmony between yin and yang is essential. Excessive suppression is actually not good—it’s easy to... well, get burned up inside."

Empress and Lin Jingzhu’s faces flickered with confusion.

Turning her thoughts back, Empress quietly nodded in agreement, "Indeed, maintaining purity and being strict with oneself, unlike other playboys indulgent in pleasure, he is material for great things."

Her opinion of Chen Mo rose even higher in her heart.

Lin Jingzhu’s cheeks reddened slightly, murmuring to herself, "This man always likes to go to the Imperial Music Bureau; could it be just to enjoy the music? He doesn’t seem to be that decent..."

Xuanqing Pool.

Warm spring water gushed out from the Phoenix Mouth, and the steam in the pool was dense.

Empress slipped out of her Palace Gown, laying it on the folding screen, and stepped into the pool with her long legs.

The huge Chest shook the water, creating ripples that trembled slightly, offering a striking visual impact.

Lately, the court has been in constant turmoil, with memorials piling up like mountains. She hasn’t had a proper rest for several days, and now that Chen Mo was still unconscious, she could finally steal some leisure time.

Splash—

Suddenly, there was a sound of someone entering the water from the edge of the pool.

Moments later, a figure emerged from behind and gently wrapped around her slender waist.

"Beautiful lady, guess who I am?"

"How brazen, you girl, you’re getting bolder."

Empress softly chided, but her eyes were full of mirth.

She had watched Lin Jingzhu grow up, and their relationship was very deep; they used to sleep together often.

However, ever since this girl joined Six Gates, she was busy with official duties all day and rarely had time to accompany her, making the place feel even colder and lonelier deep within the high palace walls.

"Wow, little auntie, your figure is getting better and better."

Lin Jingzhu supported the heavy Chest, clicking her tongue in admiration, "Must be several pounds now, right?"

Empress felt a tingling sensation all over her body and playfully slapped her hand away, "Don’t touch randomly."

"Then you can also touch mine."

Lin Jingzhu puffed out her chest, still as carefree as ever.

"..."

Empress helplessly shook her head, there was no way to discipline her.

The two of them stuck close to each other, one youthful and vibrant, the other mature and beautiful, looking like two beauties blossoming together, making the surrounding palace even brighter.

Compared to Empress’s voluptuous tenderness, Lin Jingzhu’s body was more compact, her skin ice-cold and pale, resembling icy jade. Water droplets rolled off her skin without leaving a trace.

"Jingzhu, how is your health lately?"

Feeling the cool temperature from behind, even while soaked in the warm spring, it didn’t warm her, so Empress frowned and asked.

Lin Jingzhu smiled and said, "Much better, with the suppression of the Nine Revolutions Ice Soul Technique, at least I can control the Chill Toxin and not freeze myself to death."

Empress sighed.

Lin Jingzhu had a unique constitution, with innate Chill Toxin hidden in her marrow, causing sporadic outbreaks that several times nearly cost her life.

Even Li Yuanshi could not find a cure.

Fortunately, Martial Arts Champion Xue Jushan took a liking and transmitted to her the Nine Revolutions Ice Soul Technique, which was a perfect fit for her constitution, allowing her to progress by leaps and bounds.

But at its core, it was just temporary suppression, not a solution to the problem.

"Let’s not talk about this. Little aunt, let me give you a massage."

The two moved to the edge of the pool.

Empress lay down on the Jade Platform, her huge Chest pressed into a semi-arc.

Lin Jingzhu’s fingertips exuded frost, pressing on Empress’s white jade-like back, the alternating sensations of cold and heat involuntarily made Empress shudder.

"Shh, who did you learn this from?"

"Self-taught."

The cold air continuously stimulated the acupoints, almost making Empress moan aloud. Her cheeks flushed with a faint rosiness, and in order to distract herself, she asked:

"Jingzhu, what do you think of Chen Mo?"

Lin Jingzhu contemplated for a moment and replied, "His strength is beyond doubt, hard to find an equal among his peers, with meticulous thoughts and decisive methods, he is a talent worth nurturing."

Empress nodded, then asked, "What about assigning him to the palace, what do you think?"

Lin Jingzhu was startled, "Little aunt, you want to castrate him?"

"..."

Empress said irritably, "I mean, to make him an Imperial Guard."

This was also a path for military officers to rise through the ranks. If he could advance to the position of Chief Commander, holding the second rank, he would be one of her truly trusted courtiers.

Moreover, keeping Chen Mo by her side would mean a greater chance of winning him over.

Lin Jingzhu fell into a moment of contemplation, then said, "It could work, but with his capabilities, serving as an Imperial Guard is a bit of an undersell..."

"That’s true."

Empress of course understood this reasoning.

Although Chen Mo had tremendous potential, he still needed experience; forcibly keeping him by her side would only snuff out his talent.

"Jingzhu is of a similar age to him, and your relationship seems not bad."

"The two are considered quite a good match. If Zhu’er is interested, I could arrange it. Then we would all be one family, and even Yu Youhan would have to stand aside, wouldn’t he?"
