"Yes...yes!" Zhao Zhilan hesitated, "Your Highness, may we speak privately?"
Why all this secrecy? Lin Mo was very puzzled.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Zhao Zhilan reached out and pulled Lin Mo away.
After leaving the military camp, they arrived at a desert area beside a dry riverbed.
What makes this place different from others is that the sand here is very soft and there are very few gravel.
At the same time, it is also very remote.
"What exactly do you want with me here?" Lin Mo couldn't help but ask.
Zhao Zhilan stopped and then lowered her head.
"Lin Mo..." she called out the name, "Do you regret it?"
"Regret what?" Lin Mo asked, puzzled.
"You killed my mother!" Zhao Zhilan mustered her courage and asked, "Do you regret it?"
Lin Mo fell silent.
Should I lie to her or tell her the truth?
I have absolutely no regrets!
At this moment, Zhao Zhilan continued, "If you hadn't broken your promise back then and spared my mother's life, I would be your wife. My Zhao clan would have obeyed your commands. And the Great Xia would not have fallen into chaos."
Lin Mo smiled. "Your Highness, you believe that situation would be peaceful, right?" He asked, "But how long would such peace last? Would the Zhao family descendants be loyal to you, or to me, Lin Mo?"
"So you're trying to argue that a hen crowing at dawn is a bad idea? That women shouldn't be in power?"
"It's not that I want to say this, but the people of Great Xia believe it!" Lin Mo said. "Your mother, the first empress of Great Xia. Do you really believe that under her rule, the people live in peace and prosperity?"
How many members of your Zhao family want to rebel against her?
But Lin Mo didn't say it aloud.
“I don’t understand politics, and I don’t want to argue with you about this!” Zhao Zhilan interrupted. “What I want to ask is, do you regret it?”
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo was shocked.
The questions women ask are often misleading.
It sounds like one thing, but it's actually quite another.
Zhao Zhilan was also a woman, a girl of eighteen or nineteen.
Is the crux of her question...?
"Marry you?" Lin Mo asked instinctively.
"No, that's not it!" Zhao Zhilan quickly retorted.
But the more she refuted this, the more Lin Mo believed that this was exactly what she wanted to ask.
"Back then, you deliberately let me leave the capital, didn't you?" Zhao Zhilan asked again. "The Xuanhua Palace has spies all over the capital. You actually knew where I was all along, didn't you?"
"Okay!" Lin Mo nodded.
"Why?" Zhao Zhilan pressed.
"Your Highness," Lin Mo said, "let me ask you a question in return, "Do you regret leaving the palace and the capital?"
Zhao Zhilan, “…”
"I...don't know!" she said, pursing her lips.
Then, both of them fell silent.
After a long while, Lin Mo was surprised to find that Zhao Zhilan...
She slowly took off her clothes.
"Holy crap!" Lin Mo exclaimed instinctively, "Your Highness, what are you doing?"
Because in the next instant, Zhao Zhilan was already standing naked in front of Lin Mo, and then hugged him.
"Can you take me, Brother Lin Mo..." Zhao Zhilan asked.
"My God!" Lin Mo was completely stunned.
Before he could react, Zhao Zhilan had already wrapped her arms around his waist and then leaned close to Lin Mo's ear.
A fragrant aroma wafted over, and Lin Mo's body trembled instantly.
"No! Your Highness, please don't do this!" Lin Mo suddenly pushed her away.
"You dislike me?" Zhao Zhilan asked. "Are you very concerned about my appearance?"
"No, I..." Lin Mo was a little unsure how to answer, "What is all this about! Your Highness, what are you doing?"
Zhao Zhilan pursed her lips. "I am already a disciple of Xuanhua Palace," she said. "Disciples of the ancient sect of Xuanhua Palace are usually required to hide their identities and lie in wait so that they can carry out assassinations in the future."
I am a woman, and my martial arts skills are not good.
If the assassination attempt fails, it is highly likely that...
So, I want to give my first time to someone I don't dislike so much!
"Holy crap, what a reason..." Lin Mo was stunned.
The identities of disciples of the Xuanhua Palace Ancient School are entirely arranged by the elders of Xuanhua Palace.
Widow, prostitute, farmer's wife, spinster who will live out her days alone—it all depends on the situation.
Zhao Zhilan's idea...
"This is confusing me!" Lin Mo thought to himself, "Should I reject her? Or what?"
Before Lin Mo could react, Zhao Zhilan had already leaned in and kissed his lips.
Amidst Zhao Zhilan's soft moans, their lips met.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Zhilan began to undress Lin Mo.
The two young people's bodies were soon pressed tightly together.
Lin Mo is a normal man, a super normal man who regards beautiful women as nothing special.
In this situation, the spear had already regained its former glory.
Then, Zhao Zhilan reached out and touched it.
Well, she seems to know a lot about this, but she doesn't really know much about it!
Lin Mo subconsciously glanced at Zhao Zhilan out of the corner of his eye; at that moment, her entire face was flushed.
His eyes revealed shame and...
"Brother Lin Mo, I...I don't really understand!" After struggling for a while, Zhao Zhilan finally managed to utter this sentence.
On the other hand, Lin Mo was also very conflicted at this moment.
It has been more than twenty days since I left the capital.
These days, everyone around me except Qin Liangyu is a man.
He couldn't possibly say that something had happened between him and one of his generals.
As a true man who considers beautiful women as insignificant, Lin Mo was also very angry.
