231: Dangerous Queen

"There's such a thing? Then why didn't you tell Jinrou?"

Emperor Su Ying's gaze was cold as he stared intently at Yang Lingchen, his tone full of interrogation.

Yang Lingchen's heart tightened, and he quickly explained, "Your Majesty, the Princess and I have only known each other for a short time. I truly never expected that Her Highness would like me. Moreover, my status is humble, and I wouldn't dare to have any improper thoughts."

Upon hearing this, Su Jinrou's face instantly darkened. Her eyes were filled with chilliness as she looked coldly at Yang Lingchen and said angrily, "Yang Lingchen, how bold of you to dare deceive me."

Yang Lingchen hurriedly spoke, "Your Highness, I really didn't intend to deceive you."

"Then what is your relationship with Feng Xueqing of the Phoenix Clan?" Su Jinrou's voice grew even colder.

"I have no relationship with her. She doesn't like Chen Zixuan, so she and I pretended to be lovers to act as her shield," Yang Lingchen said plausibly, though fine beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead.

"Zhongxian," Emperor Su Ying's face darkened as he called out coldly.

"This servant is here." A middle-aged eunuch emerged from the side, bowing.

"Take him down and give him a thorough examination for me," Emperor Su Ying said coldly, his eyes reflecting majesty.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The middle-aged eunuch named Zhongxian responded and led Yang Lingchen outside.

At this moment, Yang Lingchen was laughing in his heart: "You old hag, trying to target me? No way!"

"Father, I want to check personally." Su Jinrou clearly didn't believe Yang Lingchen was a eunuch. Her face was gloomy, and her heart was full of unwillingness.

Emperor Su Ying thought for a moment and said deeply, "Go then."

"Thank you, Father," Su Jinrou said, then quickly followed them out.

She naturally didn't believe what Yang Lingchen had said, so no matter what, she had to check for herself.

Inside the eunuchs' Respectful Affairs Office.

The middle-aged eunuch named Zhongxian checked several times very carefully and finally confirmed one thing: Yang Lingchen was indeed a eunuch.

In fact, Yang Lingchen had long ago used the Yang Retraction Technique to shrink and hide his vital parts, so he looked no different from a eunuch.

"Your Highness, he is indeed a eunuch," the middle-aged eunuch said with a bow, his tone very certain.

Su Jinrou's face was incredibly ugly at this moment. During the examination just now, she had been watching from the side without even blinking, fearing she might miss any detail.

She never expected that the Pure Yang Body she had finally found would actually be a eunuch. This caused her expectations to instantly vanish into thin air, with anger and disappointment intertwining in her heart.

Under the lead of the middle-aged eunuch, Yang Lingchen returned to the banquet hall once again.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, he is indeed a eunuch," the middle-aged eunuch respectfully reported to Emperor Su Ying.

Su Jinrou's face was as gloomy as water. She didn't say a word, but her angry gaze was fixed on Yang Lingchen; at this moment, she even had the urge to kill him.

Just then, Empress Wu Meier said in a soft, delicate voice, "Your Majesty, I see this child's talent is quite good. It just so happens that I'm lacking a little eunuch to serve me. Why not hand this child over to me to train?"

"Since Meier wants to teach him, why not ask for his opinion!" Emperor Su Ying said. Since the other party was a eunuch, there was nothing to worry about leaving him in the inner palace.

"Yang Lingchen, are you willing to stay by my side?" Wu Meier's voice was soft and pleasant, her beautiful eyes looking at Yang Lingchen with a hint of playfulness.

Looking at Wu Meier's soul-stirring eyes, Yang Lingchen felt a sense of unease. His intuition told him that she was definitely a dangerous woman.

But at this moment, he had no better choice.

"To be appreciated by the Empress is Lingchen's greatest honor. Lingchen will certainly serve by Your Majesty's side with all my heart and soul."

Yang Lingchen reacted quickly and agreed directly.

After all, compared to the ugly and arrogant Su Jinrou, he was more willing to stay beside the beautiful and enchanting Empress.

"Good child, stay by my side from now on!" Wu Meier said in a soft voice, a fleeting deep meaning flashing in her eyes.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Yang Lingchen stood up and walked to Wu Meier's side, immediately stepping into the role of a eunuch.

Su Jinrou's eyes were filled with intense rage; at this moment, she truly felt like killing Yang Lingchen.

After finally finding a Pure Yang Body to use as a Cauldron, who would have thought he'd be a eunuch? No one would be in a good mood after that.

This royal banquet lasted for two or three hours before finally ending.

"Lingchen, come with me!"

Wu Meier's voice was soft and beautiful, as intoxicating as celestial music.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Yang Lingchen responded and followed behind Wu Meier, walking all the way toward the Wu Mei Palace.

Wu Meier's figure was perfect—an enchanting body with curvaceous lines and skin as white and delicate as fine mutton-fat jade. She was simply a natural-born peerless beauty.

Since there were several palace maids following Wu Meier, Yang Lingchen didn't dare to look too much. He could only follow cautiously behind, though he couldn't help but admire her in his heart.

Led by Wu Meier, it wasn't long before Yang Lingchen arrived at the Wu Mei Palace.

Wu Mei Palace.

The Empress's residence, the environment here was elegant and noble, quiet and luxurious. The layout of the palace all showcased the owner's distinguished status.

Unlike ordinary concubines, Wu Mei Palace had very few eunuchs and palace maids, but the strength of these maids and eunuchs was very formidable.

"Lingchen, stay. Everyone else, leave!" Wu Meier's voice carried a hint of irresistible pressure.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The palace maids and eunuchs bowed and withdrew.

"Come here." Wu Meier's voice was soft and charming, carrying a hint of seductive power. Her sexy, enchanting pink lips bore a bewitching smile, and her dreamily peerless face made one unable to resist falling for her.

Yang Lingchen was slightly stunned, but he still walked over as told.

The two stood face to face, less than a meter apart.

"Am I beautiful?" Wu Meier stretched out her snowy-white and delicate jade hand and lightly pressed a button on the front of her clothes.

With that press, the Phoenix Robe on Wu Meier's body slowly slid down.

Her exquisite, divine body was fully revealed at this moment.

This breathtakingly beautiful body was displayed completely and without any concealment right before Yang Lingchen.

"Beautiful, extremely beautiful!" Yang Lingchen felt his breathing instantly become a bit rapid.

But he didn't dare to make any reckless moves, because he knew how terrifying the woman in front of him was.

This woman was very beautiful.

Different from Yang Lingchen's other women, this woman's body was more mature and enchanting, exuding an irresistible charm.

"Then do you like me? Do you want to possess me?" Wu Meier's luscious red lips emitted a breathtakingly divine voice.

Gulp...! Yang Lingchen secretly swallowed his saliva, thinking to himself, "Holy crap, what is she saying? She's not testing my willpower, is she? Or is all this just an illusion?"

Wu Meier slowly leaned in close to Yang Lingchen.

"Shit, I'm screwed, I've been found out," Yang Lingchen's face turned pale as he thought to himself.

"Pretending to be a eunuch in front of me? You're still a bit too green." Wu Meier's sexy red lips curled into a smug smile.

"Your Majesty, spare my life!" Yang Lingchen immediately began to beg for mercy; now was not the time to act tough.

"Do you know why I brought you back?" Wu Meier's enchanting voice whispered softly in Yang Lingchen's ear. Her breath was like orchids and musk, teasing his heartstrings.

"I do not know!" Yang Lingchen said, his voice trembling slightly.

"Hmph! Still acting innocent in front of me." Wu Meier snorted coldly and said, "I saw through your act long ago. Your Yang Qi is so vigorous; how could a eunuch possess such a thing? I brought you back because I've taken an interest in your special Physique."

Yang Lingchen's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself that this was bad, wondering what Wu Meier actually intended to do.

"The Cultivation Technique I Cultivate requires the assistance of Pure Yang Qi, and you just happen to have the Pure Yang Body. As long as you are obedient and serve me, I naturally won't treat you poorly." Wu Meier's voice carried an irresistible charm.

"Whatever the Empress commands, I will certainly go all out."

"Very good. I like obedient people. I hope you don't do anything to harm yourself." Wu Meier's voice suddenly turned cold.

"Rest assured, Your Majesty. I will certainly do my utmost and wouldn't dare to have any divided loyalties," Yang Lingchen said respectfully.

"Then what are you still standing there for?"

Wu Meier reached out her snowy-white, slender jade hand and lightly hooked Yang Lingchen's chin, then brought her luscious lips close to his ear.

"Holy shit!"

At this moment, Yang Lingchen could no longer hold back and directly embraced Wu Meier.

Their bodies became tightly entangled together.
