Chapter 277: Chapter 133: People Change, Wife Change! The Empress’s Role Play! (6K)_3
"..."
Chen Mo inexplicably felt a déjà vu of Wu Dalang.
"What medicine?"
"This is a prescription from Li Yuanshi of the Imperial Hospital. It can nourish the Divine Soul and replenish Qi-Blood, greatly benefiting Mr. Chen’s injuries."
"Alright, just leave it on the table. I’ll drink it later."
"Her Majesty the Empress specifically instructed that Mr. Chen is weak, and the servant must personally serve him the medicine."
"... Okay."
The Palace Servant lifted the gauze curtain and came in.
Chen Mo sat leaning against the headboard, his upper body bare, muscles well-defined, covered only modestly by a thin blanket.
The young Palace Servant’s cheeks flushed slightly, looking a bit shy. She knelt beside him, scooping the medicine with a spoon, gently blowing on it, and then offering it to Chen Mo’s mouth.
"Isn’t this truly emperor-like treatment?"
Chen Mo opened his mouth and drank. The medicine liquid entered, transforming into a warm stream flowing throughout his body.
He felt as if he was soaking in a hot spring, replenishing his Qi-Blood rapidly, and his Divine Soul greatly nourished, the headache instantly easing significantly.
At this rate, it won’t take more than a few days to fully recover.
No wonder Li Yuanshi of the Imperial Hospital has some skill...
"What is Her Majesty the Empress busy with?"
In the midst of drinking the medicine, Chen Mo asked aloud.
He was still thinking about his Flying Phoenix Order...
The young Palace Servant cooled the medicine and fed it to Chen Mo, answering, "Her Majesty is dealing with affairs in Zhao Hua Palace, instructing that Mr. Chen temporarily recuperates in Yangxin Palace until his injuries stabilize before leaving."
"Her Majesty has already sent someone to Chen Mansion with a letter of safety, so Mr. Chen need not worry."
Actually, Chen Mo’s body didn’t have any major problems, just temporarily a bit weak.
But when thinking about that relentless third-grade expert, to avoid them taking advantage of his weakness, indeed staying in the palace is more secure.
After drinking the medicine soup, he regained some strength.
He declined the Palace Servant’s service to help him dress, picked up the folded white robe from the bedside, and wore it.
He walked to the mirror to examine himself.
A simple white long robe made him look handsome and graceful, perfectly outlining his tall figure.
His face, like carefully sculpted warm jade, sword eyebrows tilted, brow peaks sharp, eyes deep and bright, resembling cold water pools, exuding a noble yet fierce aura.
"I must say, this outfit fits quite well."
"Elaborate and graceful, like one of Nuwa’s fine creations."
"It’s a pity, there is only a Rouge List and no Handsome Abode, otherwise, I would undoubtedly be at the top... agitated, when will men ever rise?"
Chen Mo shook his head and sighed, mildly dissatisfied with Tianshu Pavilion’s double standards.
Just as he opened the door to leave the room, he ran into a familiar figure.
"Lin Catcher?"
"Mr. Chen!"
Lin Jingzhu froze for a moment, then vigorously rubbed his eyes, barely believing it, "You’re alright?"
Yesterday, seeing Chen Mo in such a miserable state on the arena, her heart was wrenched, unable to close her eyes all night... Upon hearing Chen Mo was in the palace, she rushed over urgently.
Seeing him intact felt like dreaming.
Chen Mo shook his head, "I’m fine, just a bit of physical exhaustion, a few days of rest will suffice..."
Before finishing the sentence, Lin Jingzhu seemed to crash into his arms like a fawn.
Her hands tightly hugged his waist and back, cheeks pressed against his chest, listening to the strong, powerful heartbeat to confirm this was not an illusion.
Mist filled her eyes, mumbling:
"It’s good that you’re alright, it’s good..."
Feeling Little Grapefruit’s impact, Chen Mo sighed.
If the Empress saw this scene, she would probably jump into Hidden Dragon River without clearing it...
A moment later, Lin Jingzhu recovered, hurriedly stepped back two steps, rubbed her eyes, and said blushing, "Sorry, Mr. Chen, I lost my composure."
Chen Mo smiled, saying, "No problem, by the way, what was the outcome of yesterday’s Martial Arts Examination?"
"After you were taken away by Eunuch Jin, the Cloud Top Ranking appeared out of thin air..."
Listening to Lin Jingzhu’s explanation, he roughly understood the situation then.
The contest between Chen Mo and Shi Yun was not the final match; there were still eight contestants left, at least two rounds needed to determine the true Martial Arts Champion.
However, two of them perished together, and the remaining qualifiers were Shen Zhixia and Lin Jingzhu.
Both opted to forfeit.
The position of Martial Arts Champion naturally fell to Chen Mo.
Chen Mo felt a bit helpless, "So you two yielded this Heavenly Element Martial Champion title to me?"
Lin Jingzhu seriously said, "First defeating Tianshu Pavilion, then Wuwan Temple, becoming the first Martial Cultivator in nearly a hundred years to reach the top of the Cloud Top Ranking! Mr. Chen’s Martial Arts Champion title is well-deserved! Not just in the court, even among Sect Disciples, none are unconvinced!"
Moreover, she managed to enter the top three mostly because of Chen Mo, otherwise would have been eliminated by the Witch Sect Saintess long ago...
Chen Mo wasn’t concerned about these empty titles, only caring about practical benefits he could get.
Besides the rewards for the Martial Arts Champion, the Empress also promised him a condition.
Hmm, seems he should find the Busty Empress to exchange Gold Coin...
Lin Jingzhu secretly observed Chen Mo, her face a bit red, her eyes flickering.
"Seems like it’s the first time I’ve seen Mr. Chen in white clothes, really nice..."
"Clearly looking like a refined scholar, yet yesterday on the arena appearing like a fierce demon, that kind of boldness and defiance truly caught attention! No wonder he’s my husband!"
"Mr. Chen’s chest is really solid, should’ve known and hugged a bit longer..."
["Lin Jingzhu" Favorability Rating increased.]
[Current progress: 49/100 (Regret meeting late).]
?
Words appeared before his eyes, Chen Mo came to and looked at Lin Jingzhu with confusion.
