This suggestive talk made Zhao Qinglan feel incredibly ashamed.

"This edict, I issue to you. But today's events must never happen again."

Zhao Qinglan finally found back her majestic bearing as an empress. Her phoenix eyes were filled with coldness as she stared at Li Chen and said, "This palace's patience also has its limits. You repeatedly challenge this palace's limits, this palace will absolutely not tolerate your wanton actions."

"How could I possibly have gone astray"

Li Chen said as he leaned closer to Zhao Qinglan, until their noses were almost touching, and the breath they exhaled mingled. Looking into Zhao Qinglan's stunningly beautiful phoenix eyes, he teased, "How about this"

Zha Qinglan's breathing grew increasingly rapid.

She couldn't understand how Li Chen could be so bold.

Every single action he took, every word he uttered, if they were to be revealed to the world, would undoubtedly cause a scandal that would shake the heavens. Regardless of their status or position, they would all face ruin and an untimely demise.

Perhaps this was precisely it, for both Li Chen and Zhao Qinglan, a certain indescribable sense of excitement seemed to be present.

This kind of stimulation, Zhao Qinglan absolutely wouldn't admit to it, but the development of events has already proven everything.

Zhao Qinglan realized she absolutely couldn't be this weak anymore, she gritted her teeth and said, "You're too close!"

"Let me indulge myself one more time, next time I'll never do it again, how about that"

Li Chen spoke, already close to Zhao Qinglan's snow-white neck.

That fair and swan-like neck, ethereal and dreamy, each inch of skin radiating the most exquisite allure of a woman at her peak.

With each breath, the pulse in the neck throbbed rapidly, revealing the owner's state of immense panic and unease.

Li Chen didn't even wait for Zhao Qinglan to respond, he immediately bit down on her collarbone.

"Ah!"

Zhao Qinglan shivered violently, as if struck by electricity, a shiver running through her entire body.

Zhao Qinglan bit her red lips tightly, not knowing how long it had been, she pushed Li Chen away with a shove, pulled up her clothes to cover her collarbone, and said sharply: "Enough! "

"It's still not quite good enough."

After Li Chen finished speaking, before Zhao Qinglan could get angry, he took a step back and said with a smile: "But forget it, let's just stop here."

Remember what you just said!

Zhaochenglan glared at Lichen with shame and anger, pointing to the door: "Get out!"

Li Chen was about to speak when a voice called out from outside the palace gate.

"Your Highness, Minister Xu Changqing of the Ministry of Revenue is outside the East Palace requesting an audience. He says it's a matter of urgency requiring your decision."

Li Chen frowned slightly. The 400,000 taels of silver he had just sent to the Ministry of Revenue should be being counted by Xu Changqing right now. What could possibly happen at this time

He could only hold back his thoughts of teasing Zhao Qinglan further, and Li Chen waved his hand. "This prince will return to the East Palace immediately."

Seeing that Li Chen was really gone, Zhao Qinglan only then felt like her whole body had lost its strength. She sat down on the chair and let out a long sigh of relief.

Suddenly, Zhao Qinglan seemed to remember something and hurriedly ran to the mirror. She saw herself in disarray, hair tousled, face flushed red. What made her feel most ashamed was the large strawberry mark on her collarbone, still with Li Chen's saliva stain!

"Damn it! Scoundrel! Shameless!!!"

When Zhao Qinglan was still fuming, Li Chen returned to the East Palace and first saw Xu Changqing who was equally furious.

"Your Highness, these people are simply shameless! Utterly shameless!!!" Can you kill all the officials in the court If that were to happen, the court would be nothing but a shell."Li Chen continued, "This palace hopes that you kill Yelü Guzanqi."Gong Huiyu was taken abac...
