153: The new queen accidentally swollen her mouth

"You, don't come any closer!" Zhu Zhu's heart fluttered in panic, and her body involuntarily retreated, but behind her was already a wall, leaving her with nowhere to go.

Chen Xuan approached with a smile, his eyes fixed on Zhu Zhu, as if his gaze could see right through her.

Zhu Zhu felt a strong masculine aura rush towards her, her heart rate constantly accelerating, and her whole body was so tense she couldn't breathe.

"Chen Xuan, don't mess around!" Zhu Zhu said nervously, but her voice carried a slight tremble.

Chen Xuan looked at her, a wicked smile appearing on his face. He leaned close to Zhu Zhu's ear and whispered, "Empress, you don't have to worry, I won't mess around."

"Chen Xuan, if you want me to pay a price, then name your price. Whatever good things you want, I can find them for you!"

"Good, since the Empress is so straightforward, then I won't be polite." Chen Xuan smiled, then held up two fingers.

"First, I want you to make a Heavenly Dao oath that you will not reveal anything about my identity and strength to anyone. As for my medical skills, you can just tell everyone that my medical skills are very high!"

"Okay, I promise you!" Zhu Zhu immediately made the Heavenly Dao oath.

"As for this second condition... it's to collect a little interest! After all, I came specifically to treat you, and you ended up causing me a huge loss!"

"What, what do you need?"

Chen Xuan looked at her, a wicked smile on his lips. He stretched out a hand, gently traced Zhu Zhu's cheek, and then whispered in her ear, "Little Catgirl, what do you think?"

Zhu Zhu's body instantly stiffened, her heart pounded, her breathing became rapid, and her cheeks turned crimson.

She wanted to retreat, but there was a wall behind her, leaving her with no escape.

"Chen Xuan, don't mess around! I am the Empress, if you dare to do anything to me, you will definitely be punished!" Zhu Zhu threatened.

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "Empress? Of course I know, but I have always been fearless."

After speaking, Chen Xuan directly lowered his head.

Zhu Zhu's body instantly stiffened, her mind went blank, and her heart was filled with anger and shame, but she was powerless.

"You, you dare to treat me like this, I will definitely make you pay the price!" Zhu Zhu said angrily.

"Little Catgirl, stop threatening me, it's useless." Chen Xuan said lightly.

Zhu Zhu's body trembled even more violently, and her heart continued to pound.

Chen Xuan smiled, lowered his head again, and savored the clear tea.

...

Not long after, as Zhu Zhu's mind was a bit muddled, she felt Chen Xuan's hand suddenly reach for her waist.

Chen Xuan gave a gentle tug and untied the sash around her waist.

Zhu Zhu's face turned pale with fright, thinking Chen Xuan was going to do something terrible to her.

However, Chen Xuan did not continue; he loosened his hand and dropped the sash to the ground.

He had limited time and couldn't do more, as he would need at least half a day to Cultivate once he started.

By the time his experience card expired, he estimated that his and Zhu Zhu's positions would have to switch.

"This is a warning, I hope you remember not to try to challenge my bottom line again, Little Catgirl." Chen Xuan said casually, then he pinched Zhu Zhu's cheek before completely letting her go.

Zhu Zhu was stunned for a moment; she hadn't expected Chen Xuan to do that. However, she also breathed a sigh of relief; at least she knew that Chen Xuan didn't really intend to do anything to her.

But at the same time, a strange feeling arose in her heart.

"Now we can be considered half-allies. Tell me, what was your real purpose in having me come over? I know your condition better than you do!"

Chen Xuan sat casually on Zhu Zhu's Phoenix bed.

"I, I'm fine, it's just that I'm a little unwell physically, you're overthinking it." Zhu Zhu bent down to pick up the sash on the ground and tied it back on.

"Are you sure? If there's really nothing serious, then I'll take my leave!"

"Go! Hurry up and go!" At this moment, Zhu Zhu had no other thoughts; she just wanted to be alone.

Chen Xuan shrugged indifferently at her words and left directly.

"Oh, and pay attention to your temper! If your temper is too fiery, you'll still need me to treat you, hahaha!"

Watching Chen Xuan leave, Zhu Zhu slowly got up and huddled alone in the corner of the Phoenix bed, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

...

Empress Dowager She's side.

"Imperial Physician Chen, what did the new Empress want with you?" Empress Dowager She asked, looking at Chen Xuan on the desk.

Shen Xirou, however, remained silent. After pouring tea for both of them, she respectfully stood behind She Jingxi.

"Nothing much, she just claimed that she had been feeling unwell recently and asked me to treat her!"

"Oh? Does the new Empress have any illness?"

"It's nothing serious, just that she's been in a bad mood recently, and her anger has affected her lips, causing them to swell."

"Is there such an absurd thing? Is she not happy after becoming the Empress?"

"This matter is absolutely true, I can guarantee it with my life!" Chen Xuan pounded his chest in assurance.

"As for why she isn't happy after becoming the Empress, I'm not sure."

"Could it be that there's some conflict between her and this new Emperor..." She Jingxi murmured to herself.

"Cough, cough, Empress Dowager, you called me here because..."

"Oh, that, Xirou, after you completely cured her, she has been constantly thinking about your medical skills and kept clamoring to me that she wanted to learn from you. So, I invited you over!"

"So that's how it is. I have no objections and am willing to teach everything I know! However, this requires taking Madam Shen to the Tai Hospital to identify some medicinal herbs!" Chen Xuan looked at Shen Xirou, a smile flashing in his eyes.

Shen Xirou's face instantly turned crimson, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at him.

Chen Xuan's words seemed fine, but how could someone who had experienced it not understand Chen Xuan's meaning? This was to teach everything he knew! To teach everything he knew to her alone!

This meant that a large amount of medical knowledge would pour into her body, and she would need to digest it all by herself!

"Hmm, in that case, you two can go to the Tai Hospital together later! Xirou, you go wait outside first, I still have something to discuss with Imperial Physician Chen."

"Yes!" Shen Xirou looked at the two of them strangely, a little confused, and then went out.

"Empress Dowager, what else is there?" Chen Xuan was a little anxious. The anger that Zhu Zhu had brought him had not yet dissipated. He had finally managed to get away with Shen Xirou, and he himself was a bit on edge. Now the Empress Dowager had something else for him to do!

"You seem a bit anxious? Could it be that you're eager to go teach Xirou medical skills?"

"No, no, for me, your request, Empress Dowager, is the most important."

"Hmph, at least you know how to talk!"

Chen Xuan did not speak, quietly waiting for the Empress Dowager's request.
