To be honest, Qiao Zhen was also quite surprised. Xiao Bao seemed exceptionally obedient, and only listened to her. When she and Shen Zhao were both around, Xiao Bao would respect her instructions first. Only when she wasn't around would Xiao Bao listen to Shen Zhao, but of course, only to those instructions that she had given him before.
Moreover, Xiao Bao seems to have a very high IQ, and he can often state the key points of things in a very serious manner.
As for Shen Zhao, this man seems somewhat indifferent to his women. He makes arrangements in private but doesn't bring them up in public. Unlike those scumbags who torment their former concubines once they have a woman they love.
After all, Shen Zhao was forced upon by the original owner of the body.
The original owner was domineering and majestic!
It was a dark and windy night, with only the howling of the wind outside the window. Qiao Zhen changed into a tight-fitting night outfit, which accentuated her small breasts. She was utterly desperate.
Qiao Zhen: [Xiao Ling, the system is taking a 360-degree, no-blind-spot view of the area within ten meters of me.]
Xiao Ling: [Okay, in progress.]
Qiao Zhen: [Chu Chu, see if there are any dying pets in the palace. Quickly throw yourself into their clutches.]
Chu Chu: [Okay, scanning is underway using Xiao Ling's system!]
Xiao Ling: [Get out of the way! My system is running out of capacity! There's a dead end!]
Chu Chu: [What does this have to do with the rat! The rat needs to find a host; it's looking online, and it's urgent.]
Xiao Ling: [Get out of here!]
Chu Chu: [Get out!]
Xiao Ling: [Get out of here! Get out of here! Get out of here!]
Chu Chu: [Get out if you want! Get out if you want! Get out if you want! You trashy little zero!]
Qiao Zhen: She suddenly feels so tired, what should she do QAQ [Can you please shut up! Let Xiao Ling have her first.]
With a pitiful expression, she mumbled, "Oh."
Xiao Ling smugly used the system to monitor the area within a ten-meter radius of Qiao Zhen and shared the results with her: "Your martial arts skills are still inferior in the palace, so choosing me was the right decision."
A "几" (ji) character appeared between Qiao Zhen's brows. [Do you believe I'll make you go back to the drawing board for a makeshift education?]
When Chu Chu saw Xiao Ling being teased by Qiao Zhen, she covered her mouth with both hands and secretly smiled.
Qiao Zhen leaned against the wall, gazing at the distant lights. [Where is Xuan Shi Hall?]
Chu Chu sent a map to Qiao Zhen.
Qiao Zhen held her breath, avoiding the patrolling guards, and looked at the brightly lit Xuan Shi Hall.
Qiao Zhen: [We'll drop down from above his bed when the little emperor is asleep.]
Chu Chu: [Why?]
Xiao Ling: [Why?]
Qiao Zhen: [The lights are on now, there must be someone serving the little emperor inside. Let's go to his inner chamber for a while and hide there, hehehe.]
Her idea was beautiful. But for some reason, Shen Zhao held immense power, while the young emperor still had to deal with mountains of memorials. Even though the real power lay with Shen Zhao, the young emperor, who did all the work, was incredibly powerful—that Shen Zhao was truly formidable.
The young emperor also enjoyed being tortured; no one paid him any attention, yet he diligently processed the memorials. Even though he was the one making the sacrifices, it was Shen Zhao who gained widespread fame.
Just as Qiao Zhen was about to close her eyes, the young emperor finally went into the inner chamber to bathe. Qiao Zhen instantly snapped back to reality, leaped up, and hid on the roof beam.
(Private Message) Xiao Ling: [I don't know why, but even though it was something very dangerous, the host did it very casually, as if he was deliberately taking risks.]
(Private Window) Chu Chu: [Shh, just wait and see. It's bound to backfire, but you'll get used to it.]
(Small window) Xiaoling: [Oh.]
When the young emperor loosened his clothes, Qiao Zhen covered her face shyly and looked at him, but in her heart she was shouting: Take it off! Take it off quickly! Take it all off!
Chu Chu: [Oh my, how perverted!]
Xiao Ling: [Tsk, what a lack of manners from a Qiao Yan fanboy.]
The atmosphere, which was originally very serious, was greatly relaxed by Qiao Zhen, Xiao Ling, and Chu Chu's respective吐槽 (tu cao, meaning to roast or criticize).
The young emperor's belt tightened. "Who?!"
Qiao Zhen dropped her lewd and flirtatious expression, and gracefully floated down from the roof beam with a solemn look. "It's me, young master." She quickly stepped forward and held a dagger to the young emperor's neck. "Don't make a sound."
Shen Lan looked at Qiao Zhen, her eyes calm and composed. "What do you want?"
Qiao Zhen lightly hooked her fingertip around Shen Lan's chin, "Come here, let your sister see your little face. Tsk, it's really pretty. Your sister has a strange quirk, when she sees a good-looking person, she can't help but give them everything. But you're an emperor, it would be too vulgar for your sister to give you shops and money. Aren't you all in name only? How about your sister seizes power for you?"
She deliberately revealed her gender to lower the young emperor's guard.
Qiao Zhen didn't disguise herself; she used her original face. The young emperor had never seen her before, and painting techniques in this era weren't very advanced, so Qiao Zhen didn't need to worry about being exposed. Her eyes crinkled into a smile, and she asked again, "Is it good?"
Something flashed in the young emperor's eyes. He knew that the woman before him had managed to enter unscathed, so she must have some ability. "Why should I trust you?"
Qiao Zhen pointed two fingers at her own eyes, then at the little emperor's eyes, "Look at my eyes, my love for you is all in them!"
really.
Xiao Ling: [Sigh, poor little emperor.]
Chu Chu: [That's the look in a person's eyes—amazed with admiration, admiration with appreciation, and appreciation with a longing for something unattainable. Sorry, I can't make this up anymore; it's too much of a test of my Mandarin.]
The young emperor looked up and met Qiao Zhen's undisguised gaze. He was only fifteen, and there were two women in his harem, but he had no interest in either of them. Those women coveted his looks and his status; they couldn't betrothed to the Regent, so they thought of betrothing him. He was merely their second choice.
