But this rain, instead of bringing some coolness to the hot Bianliang, only added unbearable humidity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Various voices of hawking in different dialects that filled the streets disappeared under the heavy rain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The servants of the Chen Mansion started to busy themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chun Lan and others were directing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because tomorrow, the Chen Mansion would welcome the mistress of the household.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she was from the Xiao Family, her status naturally higher than Chun Lan and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Xiao Family's intention was that Yi Yao was coming over to be a maid for Chen Mo, that was just the facade for others; in reality, that's the intention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, the Chen Mansion had to treat it seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it couldn't be too ostentatious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So only red lanterns were hung in the backyard of the Chen Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the wedding room had red paper and red candles pasted up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside Dong Lan's room, under the eaves, Chen Mo lay on a bamboo rocking chair, watching the raindrops fall with a patter outside, humming a tune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This rocking chair was crafted by artisans on Chen Mo's order, based on memories in his mind, along with various stools and chairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting on his knees for too long was truly uncomfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below the rocking chair, Qiu Lan sat on a small stool, gently massaging Chen Mo's legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And to the right of the rocking chair, Dong Lan sat on a chair, with a maid beside her holding a fruit basket, as Dong Lan picked a grape from it, slowly peeled it, and gently fed it into Chen Mo's mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pfft.\" Chen Mo spat out the seeds, saying, \"This grape isn't sweet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Would you like a peach, Master?\" Dong Lan took a peach from the fruit basket, bringing it close to Chen Mo's mouth, he could already smell a faint peach aroma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Mo shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what would Master like to eat?

She's a royal, and you ought to visit her.\" Chun Lan couldn't help but remind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's fine, Prince De Ning won't mind, just bring her over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rain curtain fell from the eaves into the courtyard; Chen Mo looked up to the right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jiangning, accompanied by several personal maids and led by Chun Lan, walked briskly over, hands overlapping at her waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jiangning also saw Chen Mo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she gestured for her maids to retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Mo also signaled with a glance, and Chun Lan withdrew as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He got off the rocking chair and walked forward with a smile, \"Your Highness gracing us with your presence; I failed to greet you from afar. I hope Your Highness doesn't mind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jiangning, upon approaching, gave Chen Mo a glare and sat down on the chair beside the rocking chair, then said, \"Your mansion indeed has many peculiar and curios things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If Your Highness likes them, I can gift some to you.\" Seeing Zhao Jiangning sit down, Chen Mo lay down on the rocking chair again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, it seemed as if Zhao Jiangning had become the attendant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jiangning also noticed this and furrowed her brow, saying, \"No need. Didn't you say you would visit the Gao Mansion yesterday? How come I didn't see you all day?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Something came up, so I couldn't make it,\" Chen Mo said casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph, I think you were just scared,\" Zhao Jiangning snorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Mo didn't reply but instead said, \"Shouldn't Your Highness be holding vigil for the Prince Consort? With such heavy rain, why did you think of visiting my mansion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that he was deliberately asking what he knew, Zhao Jiangning was so angry that she gritted her teeth, \"Do you have to humiliate me like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, I remember; Your Highness is here for treatment, right?\" Chen Mo got off the rocking chair, stood up, gestured to the rocking chair, and said, \"Then please lie down, Your Highness.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here?\" Zhao Jiangning was dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry, without my permission, no one will come here. And besides, in such heavy rain, doesn't Your Highness find it a different kind of flavor?\" Chen Mo laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jiangning could tell he was teasing her, blushing as she said, \"I can't, this… this is outside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's cooler outside; the house is stifling.\" Chen Mo explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Jiangning knew he was doing it on purpose, but she couldn't do anything about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she had to lie down on the rocking chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she felt her clothing being unbuttoned, and in broad daylight, Zhao Jiangning felt an indescribable sense of shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just hoped this treatment would be over soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it seemed like Chen Mo was intentionally playing with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the treatment, he kept talking to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Highness, what are your plans once your injury is healed?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Highness, you're still so young, surely you don't really intend to keep living as a widow at the Gao Family?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Highness, seeing how Gao Fen treated you, it's really not worth it to live as a widow for him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the continuous chatter, Zhao Jiangning couldn't help but retort with a sarcastic tone, \"Should I remarry you then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1311,"2026-06-06T05:54:36.386Z",1,"novelbin.me","86dca44d11795283aa23c6641ba36fe8eb5a44351e0a7ccb241a8e746a48697d","cultivation-simulator-starting-from-the-empress--chapter-243","cultivation-simulator-starting-from-the-empress--chapter-241",571,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcultivation-simulator-starting-from-the-empress--cover.jpg"]
