Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace-Chapter 272 - 271 Noble Consort, does that include you too?

The sky darkened faster than usual on this rainy day.

A lone lamp flickered inside the study of the Chen Mansion.

Beneath it, Xu Dabeng stood with a slight hunch, awaiting instructions from Chen Mo.

Chen Mo informed Xu Dabeng about the mountain bandits outside Bianliang City and then said, "Dabeng, this is a chance for you to earn merits. Seize it well and eradicate these mountain bandits. I won't forget to reward you."

To Chen Mo, these were merely a group of ordinary mountain bandits, numbering two or three hundred, and did not require his personal intervention. Sending subordinates would suffice.

Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, Xu Dabeng did not think much of it, confident that handling a group of mountain bandits would be a breeze. This was, after all, an easily won credit. He knelt on one knee and clasped his fist, "I promise to complete the mission."

Chen Mo nodded and then said, "Stay for dinner before you leave."

Hearing this, Xu Dabeng was taken aback, then gave a heavy "hmm," feeling warmth in his heart. These words surely meant the lord held him in high regard.

He would certainly repay the lord well.

...

The night was like a curtain.

The drizzling rain finally came to a halt at this moment.

As Chen Mo entered the Imperial Palace, he prepared to head to the Shenxiao Temple as usual.

Suddenly, an eunuch hurried towards him, and as he passed by, his arm bumped into Chen Mo.

After a series of bows and apologies, he hurried away.

Noticing something extra in his hand, Chen Mo calmly tucked it into his sleeve and continued towards the Shenxiao Temple.

...

The description of Chen Mo in the simulation was not wrong at all.

The increase in power had made him arrogant.

Though he had been mindful of this for the past two days, after Lin Su Ya finished teaching her evening lesson and left, Chen Mo revealed his identity to Zhao Fujin.

After hearing Chen Mo's explanation, Zhao Fujin's eyes widened, then, both excited and nervous, she said, "Junior Brother, you... you found Rama's Remains?"

Chen Mo: "..."

He embraced Zhao Fujin in his arms, leading her into the darkness, and only after kissing her deeply until she was somewhat dazed did he say:

"Senior Sister, actually, my name is not Chen Hong; I'm his twin brother, Chen Mo."

Being kissed into a daze by Chen Mo, her mind hadn't registered it. Hearing those words, she widened her eyes once more, pushed Chen Mo away with some hysteria:

"You... you bastard, how could you do this to your brother? I... I'll kill you!"

Zhao Fujin felt humiliated, having betrayed her Junior Brother, having been kissed by his brother tonight, and she couldn't even tell...

"???"

Chen Mo grabbed Zhao Fujin's jade hand that was directed towards his head, noticing the True Qi surging in her palm, indicating she was serious: "Senior Sister, are you crazy, what are you saying?"

Chen Mo went on to explain how he had entered the palace in place of his brother.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Fujin breathed a sigh of relief, then gave Chen Mo a hard slap, before suddenly leaping into his arms, still feeling frightened, "Big bad guy, you scared me to death, I thought I hadn't recognized you."

Chen Mo: "..."

Zhao Fujin continued, "Then this is wonderful, Junior Brother, I will go to Father later and have him grant you a marriage."

She was already anxious to live a life where she wouldn't be separated from Chen Mo.

Chen Mo was startled: "No."

"Why not?" Zhao Fujin furrowed her brow.

"Entering the palace in place of my brother counts as deceiving the emperor, and I've stayed in the harem for a while, violating Your Majesty's taboos, warranting execution," Chen Mo explained.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Fujin suddenly understood. This would indeed be intolerable for her father, so she immediately said, "Then... what should we do? We can't just keep going like this..."

"Don't worry, I'll think of a way..." Chen Mo could only stall. Once Xiao Yunqi managed to confine Zhao Ji, there would be nothing to worry about.

Zhao Fujin nodded, growing increasingly reliant after learning his true identity, nestled in his arms, her voice a bit low: "I've given you everything, if you ever betray me, I won't go on living."

"What are you saying, Senior Sister, you're so beautiful, I couldn't bear it."

Chen Mo stroked Zhao Fujin's thigh, truly, of all the women he had known, Zhao Fujin was the most outstanding in terms of appearance, and her strength and talent were undoubtedly goddess-level.

Zhao Fujin was coaxed into a state of rapture by Chen Mo, finally, right in front of him, she donned black silk and showcased it for him.

At that moment, if this wasn't the Shenxiao Temple, Chen Mo would have undoubtedly been ready for action.

...

Late at night.

After parting from Zhao Fujin, Chen Mo left the palace, then quietly snuck back in.

He reached the location indicated on the note.

The Imperial Garden, with its multitude of buildings, Chen Mo approached a nearby area, sensed for a moment, then pushed open the door of a Maid's Room. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Just as he entered, the door suddenly slammed shut.

Inside the room, the lighting was dim.

Chen Mo suspected Hu Mei'Er was here to seduce him, as her attire was rather revealing, a light blue satin bodice with only a white open-front gauze robe draped over it, sat elegantly above.

Chen Mo sat across from her, his gaze meeting the two semicircular snow-white mounds, making his throat dry: "It's a pity you're not nursing a child!"

In terms of daring, no woman Chen Mo had encountered was as bold as Hu Mei'Er.

Hu Mei'Er's eyebrows slightly furrowed, her usual attire was generally like this, and in the harem, she had no need to worry about anything else.

"Ahem..." Chen Mo cleared his throat, then said, "I wonder, Noble Consort, why you have summoned me so late at night? Is there something urgent?"

"General Chen's performance in Nanyang, I've heard about it, truly, one cannot judge a person by their appearance, I am impressed," Hu Mei'Er's voice suddenly purred.

Chen Mo got goosebumps all over, yet he found a peculiar enjoyment in it.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Mo said, "Please speak plainly, Noble Consort, I assume taking such a risk to meet me isn't just to commend me."

Suddenly, Hu Mei'Er's face became enchanting, her voice soft as a whisper: "Then I'll be direct,

I want to collaborate with General Chen?"

"Oh, do tell." Chen Mo took interest.

"Help me restore Nan Zhou; once successful, I promise you the position of Grand General of Nan Zhou, but together we shall carve up the Great Song realm," Hu Mei'Er laughed.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo was briefly stunned, then seemed almost to have expected it. In the past, he might have been somewhat interested in the Great Song realm, but ever since Lin Su Ya had revealed the true essence of the Canglan Continent, he yearned for that even larger world.

Chen Mo chuckled, "Compared to the realm, right now, I prefer beauties."

"No problem, once it's done, the young women of Nan Zhou are yours to choose from," Hu Mei'Er said.

"Oh."

Chen Mo tapped the table lightly, then staring directly at her: "Noble Consort, does that include you?"
