I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 946

Chapter 946: Chapter 353: The Empress Personally Becomes a Bodyguard?! Fortune-Telling Master Chen Mo!

Dong dong dong—

Chen Mo knocked on the door again and waited for a moment, but there was still no response.

"It seems there’s truly no one..."

Just as he was about to turn and leave, there was a sudden soft creak, and the door opened a crack, revealing black-and-white eyes peering at him.

"Mr. Chen."

"Commander Ye?"

Chen Mo asked in confusion, "You were inside? Why did it take so long to open the door?"

"I was a bit fatigued just now and took a nap," Ye Zi’e said, blinking her eyes as she asked, "Did you need anything from me?"

Without giving it much thought, Chen Mo said, "About the Southern Border matter, though the higher-ups haven’t urged us, it’s not good to delay for too long. We might as well accomplish it swiftly."

Surprisingly, Ye Zi’e didn’t resist. She nodded and said, "Mr. Chen’s words are reasonable. Let’s proceed as you say."

"Shall we prepare and set off tomorrow?"

"All according to your arrangement."

"Alright."

Seeing her cooperate so willingly, Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief and, with a smile, said, "Then I won’t disturb Commander Ye’s rest anymore. Goodbye."

"Farewell." Ye Zi’e watched him depart until he disappeared around the stairway corner, then gently closed the door and returned to the study.

A figure in a plain long dress sat in a chair, legs crossed, with a languid expression, and said, "Apart from work, you two didn’t exchange a word of drivel. What is it, does my presence here hinder your developing any rapport?"

Ye Zi’e hurriedly bowed and said, "I and Mr. Chen are merely colleagues, without a trace of other thoughts!"

"As long as you’re aware, remember, I never give a second chance," said Yu Youhan calmly.

"I will remember Her Majesty’s teachings!" Ye Zi’e hesitated for a moment and then softly asked, "Empress, are you really going to travel with us?"

"Do you have any objections?" Yu Youhan raised an eyebrow.

"No, no objections; it’s an honor for me." Ye Zi’e waved her hands repeatedly, explaining, "It’s just that the journey south is long and exhausting. There might be lapses in taking care of you. As the Empress is of noble stature, should there be any harm to her beauty, I could never atone..."

"I don’t need you to take care of me. Just keep your mouth shut and don’t reveal my identity," Yu Youhan replied.

This time, Chen Mo is heading south, and she plans to sneak along.

It’s not a whimsical decision but one made after thorough consideration.

Wei Xuan wouldn’t issue such orders without reason. It’s certainly at the Emperor’s behest, though the purpose remains unclear; it’s apparent that it’s directed at Chen Mo.

Perhaps it’s to send him away; maybe there are ambushes set up along the way—it’s uncertain. Especially since Chen Mo’s displayed talents and strength are already enough to affect the situation.

No one can ignore a Grandmaster skilled in Daoist and Martial Dual Cultivation, especially since this is far from his limit!

For Yu Youhan, there’s concern about a repeat of the previous Southern Border incident, and personally overseeing Chen Mo to prevent any blunders.

While he mingled with other women outside, she endured the torment alone in the palace. If seen by the Empress or others, it could cause significant embarrassment!
