I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon

"Wait a moment!"

Yu Youhan called out to him, "You need to first help me untie this red silk."

Based on the last experience, once the red silk is triggered, only Chen Mo can untie it.

Moreover, during the process of untying, it may...

Yu Youhan took a deep breath, silently cheering herself on: After so many desensitization treatments, I am no longer who I used to be, and I definitely won’t be easily defeated!

"By your command, I apologize for the offense."

Chen Mo reached his hand under the blanket.

Yu Youhan’s body suddenly stiffened, and she said with annoyance, "Where are you touching?"

Chen Mo tugged at the corner of his mouth, awkwardly saying, "It’s mainly because I can’t see either..."

With no choice, Yu Youhan gritted her teeth and said, "Then just lift the blanket."

"Yes."

Chen Mo pulled open the blanket, revealing a breathtaking view.

Yu Youhan turned her head slightly, her eyes tightly closed, her brows slightly furrowed, and her lips bitten by her teeth.

She appeared forced and helpless, bearing an expression of humiliation.

"Empress, I’m going to start now."

"Why all the nonsense!"

"..."

Chen Mo reached to untie the knot, the red silk suddenly tightened, and a familiar throbbing sensation came, causing Yu Youhan’s body to tremble violently.

"Empress, are you alright?"

"Continue, continue, don’t talk to me anymore!"

As Chen Mo continued to unravel, the pulsation from the depths of her soul grew stronger, engulfing her like a tidal wave, gradually dissipating her rationale, leaving her mind blank.

"Umm~"

The moment the red silk completely fell off, Yu Youhan involuntarily let out a soft moan.

Her swan neck straightened, a blush spreading to her chest, her arches slightly curved, her turquoise eyes blankly staring at the ceiling.

Chen Mo smelled the rich fragrance of osmanthus again.

Seeing the marks showing through the thin fabric, he froze.

So it really was...

So the Empress had been...

Is she sensitive-skinned?

After a long while, Yu Youhan’s breathing steadied, and her gaze returned to clarity.

After the red silk was gone, her Dao Power was fully restored, but she still felt weak and strengthless throughout her body.

"Chen Mo..."

"I’m here."

Chen Mo thought the Empress was about to kick him away, he was mentally prepared, but then he heard the Empress solemnly say, "Don’t forget the promise you made to me, if you dare break it, I will definitely kill you!"

"Hm?"

Chen Mo looked up.

Under the dim candlelight, the Empress’s cheeks flushed, her turquoise eyes like melting icebergs, seemingly dripping with water.

Her eyes seemed to be filled with myriad emotions, indefinable.

"Which promise are you referring to, Empress?"

"Is it to support you unconditionally, to be in your favor, or not to give this piece of underwear to anyone else?"

Chen Mo inquired carefully.

"..."

Yu Youhan’s gaze turned cold, and with a wave of her hand, she said, "Get lost."

Chen Mo’s figure suddenly vanished, thrown out.

The bedroom returned to silence.

"Fool..."

Yu Youhan muttered under her breath.

At that moment, she noticed the Muscle Relaxing Oil on the small table beside her, her expression faltering slightly.

Then, she buried her face in the blanket and did not lift her head for a long while, though the tips of her ears revealed outside were already fiery red.

...

...

...

The next day, in the morning.

As Chen Mo walked into the training field, he immediately bumped into Qiu Longgang, who was flamboyantly dressed.

"Yo, isn’t that Hundred Households Chen? I heard your performance in the capital examination was outstanding?"

"Ts ts, across the entire official circles of Great Yuan, there are fewer than a handful who achieve this rating. You really brought glory to our Sky Scale Guard."

Qiu Longgang swayed forward, his hand shaking a folded fan, his voice squeezed.

"Many thanks to Mr. Qiu for your powerful support."

Chen Mo said, bowing.

Seeing his courteous response, Qiu Longgang became uncomfortably awkward, frowned and said, "Just call me Gangzi, it sounds more intimate."

"Gangzi, go."

Whoosh—

Chen Mo tossed out the token.

Before the token hit the ground, Qiu Longgang’s figure flashed, securely catching it, and handed it back to him.

"Ah, this feels much better."

"..."

Chen Mo shook his head.

How did he accidentally tune him to be like this...

Qiu Longgang came closer and whispered, "Did you hear? Yesterday, Doctor Deng from the Ministry of Personnel turned the Fire Department Court upside down, interrogating Lord Jian for two hours until the end of the session, and barely let him go."

"Normally it’s just a formality, wonder who he offended..."

Chen Mo slightly raised his eyebrows, "Did they find out anything?"

Qiu Longgang shook his head, "Lord Jian has been a careful Deputy Thousand Households for many years, it’s not easy to find his flaws. Even if they find some clues, it won’t prove much, at most just a record of negligence."

Chen Mo had expected this.

After all, the Ministry of Personnel is only responsible for audits and can’t interrogate under torture, whatever they find is indeed limited.

But, giving him a hard time is also good.

As they chatted, they headed towards the Government Office.

When passing by the Fire Department Court, Lord Jian just came out, his expression wilted, looking utterly exhausted.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Lord Jian, didn’t sleep well? Which brothel did you visit last night? Someone, give Lord Jian a Dragon Tiger Pill to strengthen his back."

Upon seeing him, Lord Jian’s eyes blazed with anger, his teeth gritting:

"Chen Mo!!"
