Cultivation Simulator: Starting From The Empress' Palace

Chen Mo was incredibly surprised.

When he first saved it, Chen Mo thought it was just an ordinary fox.

When Lin Su Ya told him it was the king fox of the Qingqiu Spirit Foxes, Chen Mo was amazed once.

Now its strength has reached the Innate level, and Chen Mo was amazed once again.

The speed of cultivation is just too fast!

”Little guy, at this rate you might catch up with me soon.” Chen Mo stroked Little Jiu’s head and said, ”After this, you’ll be the one protecting me.”

Little Jiu chirped and placed its tail on the back of Chen Mo’s hand, expressing agreement.

”When I’m not in the mansion, you protect Yaoyao and the others for me,” Chen Mo said.

Little Jiu rolled over, scratching the ground with its paws, showing a somewhat reluctant demeanor.

”How about this, as long as you agree, I’ll spend more time with you afterwards, how’s that?” Chen Mo thought for a moment and said.

Little Jiu agreed.

”By the way, you also keep an eye on Su Mu for me...”

...

After playing with Little Jiu, Chen Mo went to see Lianyi.

However, he didn’t dress young anymore.

In fact, even though he had dressed younger before, compared to his original appearance, it wasn’t much of a difference if you didn’t look closely.

Moreover, Chen Mo didn’t give Lianyi much chance to observe, so he wasn’t afraid she’d notice any clues.

In the room, Lianyi sat properly on the soft couch, looking at the grand yet not overly luxurious interior decoration, feeling slightly uneasy inside.

She was directly carried into the Chen Mansion by Chen Mo, and she wasn’t blindfolded during the process. The patrolling Imperial Guard outside the mansion, the heavily equipped guards inside, and this vast mansion all hinted that what Chen Mo said was true.

He really is Chen Hong’s brother.

His brother is the feared God of Slaughter in Bianliang, so would he...

Just as Lianyi was lost in her thoughts.

The door creaked open, and a tall figure walked in.

Seeing the familiar face, Lianyi’s delicate body trembled slightly.

”Sorry to keep you waiting.” Chen Mo closed the door.

Lianyi stood up somewhat nervously.

”What’s the matter? Didn’t the piano lounge teach you how to serve a man?”

Since he had brought her back, Chen Mo didn’t plan to return her either, and he brought her back not just to leave her be; he had to try some measures, right?

Hearing Chen Mo’s words, Lianyi took a deep breath and hurried forward to help Chen Mo remove the outer robe.

The piano lounge is not some low-class brothel in small counties where you can sleep for a hundred coins a night.

The piano lounge serves high officials and noble people, and the girls inside are proficient in various skills and the art of serving people.

Lianyi, as a courtesan, was an outstanding one among them.

However, she was still a maiden, and what she learned was still theoretical, not yet practiced.

After removing Chen Mo’s outer robe, Lianyi guided him to lie down on the bed.

Then, before Chen Mo’s eyes, she took off her eggshell robe, removed her embroidered shoes, and used True Qi to cleanse her delicate feet.

As a courtesan, she still had beautiful feet, but in Chen Mo’s view, they were far inferior to Jiang Ruoqing’s.

Since entering the piano lounge, she no longer had to labor, soaking in fragrant baths daily, keeping every inch of her body well-maintained.

Thus, she now appeared in front of Chen Mo like a newly blooming flower.

”Would you like a massage first, young master?” Lianyi bit her lip, looking a bit tense as she asked.

”Massage?”

Chen Mo was taken aback, nodding instinctively.

Soon, he understood what this so-called massage meant.

...

On the other side.

Hu Mansion.

Upon the events in the piano lounge, his subordinates reported to Hu Sheng immediately.

Learning that once again Hu Xian caused trouble, Hu Sheng frowned, initially planning to handle it as usual. But his subordinates informed him that this time the person affected by Hu Xian’s trouble was the Deputy Commander of the Infantry Division, Chen Hong’s younger brother, and they had verified that the person ended up in the Chen Mansion, confirming his identity.

Hearing this, Hu Sheng’s brows instantly rose.

He had investigated Chen Mo’s identity a long time ago.

Originating from a small mountain village in a small town, he indeed had a brother, and they were twins.

However, according to the investigation, that mountain village was flooded by a massive flood.

Previously, Chen Hong also left the palace in the name of mourning for his parents.

After suppressing the Nanyang rebellion, Chen Hong dispatched people to thoroughly investigate him again.

But the flood had submerged the entire mountain village, leaving no people in the know, and Hu Sheng did not know if there were any survivors in the village after the flood.

As for Chen Hong’s brother, Chen Mo’s life or death, it was naturally unknown.

But previously, his brother hadn’t appeared in Bianliang, so why did he suddenly appear tonight?

Originally, Hu Sheng was indeed not planning to care about this matter.

But because there was something odd about it, Hu Sheng planned to understand it a bit.

Just as he thought about visiting tomorrow.

His subordinate reported back.

Someone from the Chen Mansion has come.

To apologize and even brought a compensation gift for that.

...

Qin Yunge.

People from the Chen Mansion brought the silver to redeem Lianyi to the madam’s hand.

This surprised the madam.

After all, she was planning to earn a lot from this.

Unexpectedly, there was income.

But she didn’t understand if the silver sent from the Chen Mansion had other meanings, so she dared not accept it no matter what.

She even said that the fact Chen Mo liked Lianyi was a blessing for Lianyi, and as her ”mother,” why would she want money from her daughter’s sale?

...

Xiao Mansion.

”Younger brother?” Xiao Yunqi raised his brows as he looked at the dossier handed over by the butler about Chen Mo.

The dossier recorded that Chen Hong indeed had a younger brother.

Born on the same year, same month, same day.

Twin!

”Didn’t the elder remember that he was already alone? That huge flood submerged his hometown, and last time he left the palace it was to handle after-death matters, wasn’t it?” Xiao Yunqi asked.

”Replying to the master, previously Chen Hong left the palace to mourn for his parents, without mentioning his brother’s situation.”

”You’re saying this brother of his is real?” The sudden appearance of Chen Hong’s brother made Xiao Yunqi feel somewhat strange.

”Wouldn’t the master know after meeting him tomorrow?”

...

Weiyang Palace.

The resting mother and daughter heard Xiao Qing’Er’s report, knowing about the things that happened tonight in the piano lounge.

”Chen Hong’s younger brother, Chen Mo?” Hearing this, Xiao Yunxi disappeared for a moment, then a hint of a smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

She knew that the current Chen Hong is Chen Mo, and Chen Hong’s death a month ago was a fact, which Chen Mo had told her personally.

Therefore, hearing this so-called younger brother of Chen Hong, Xiao Yunxi couldn’t help but smile slightly.

”Got it, Qing’Er, you can leave now?” Xiao Yunxi waved her hand.

After Xiao Qing’Er left, Zhao Fujin asked from beside her, ”Mother, why are you laughing?”

”Ah? Just thought of something joyful.”

Xiao Yunxi casually replied, then looked at Fujin with a trace of laughter arising from her eyebrows, saying, ”What are you thinking about? So happy...”
