I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 492 I entrust Young Master Li to your care! (Please subscribe and vote with monthly tickets)
Immediately, Dai Xiaoyao feigned mystery and lowered his voice, saying, "Godmother, His Majesty is the supreme ruler and possesses extraordinary cultivation. No rare treasures can attract him in the slightest. The only thing that can attract him is..."

Dai Xiaoyao didn't continue speaking at the end, but his gaze swept over Tang's mother from head to toe.

Tang's mother, being no naive woman, understood perfectly well what Dai Xiaoyao was implying. Finding it utterly absurd, she glared fiercely at Dai Xiaoyao and said, "Xiaoyao, if you say such things again, your godmother will be angry! His Majesty is so noble; if he likes women, he should prefer virgins!"

As Tang's mother finished speaking, a slight blush crept onto her cheeks. Even though she was still a mother herself, her simple mind made it difficult for her to say these words.

Upon hearing this, Dai Xiaoyao shook his head again, a smug look spreading across his face. "Godmother, you don't understand, do you? Those young girls don't know how to care for a man like a woman your age. My mother is in the harem of the Tian Ce Empire, and she often receives His Majesty's favor!"

Upon hearing this, Tang's mother exclaimed in shock, "Ah? Your mother is in the harem of the Tian Ce Empire?"

Tang's mother kept a close eye on Dai Xiaoyao's every move, especially the smugness and pride that shone in his eyes when he finished speaking, which left her feeling completely stunned.

At this moment, she had no doubt about the truth of Dai Xiaoyao's words about Dai's mother being in the Tian Ce harem. She even felt that it was normal for an emperor of Li Chen's caliber to have some different preferences from other emperors.

Silence fell over the kitchen once more. With the last dish about to be served, Tang's mother, who had been hesitating for a long time, finally bit her lip and asked Dai Xiaoyao in a low voice, "Is this okay?"

The fact that Tang's mother could say that shows she had compromised; in order to rescue Tang Shan's father, she had no choice but to rely on Li Chen.

Moreover, Tang Shan's father was in the wrong for being arrested, so she had no choice but to do this. After all, Li Chen was the emperor, and this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. She could see him coming here incognito, but once he returned to the palace, it would be difficult for her to give him the gift.

Tang's mother was a member of a sect, the conservative type, but now was not the time for hesitation or reserve.

"Godmother, I'm your godson, why would I lie to you? Don't worry, I have experience with this!" Dai Xiaoyao patted his chest and assured her, barely suppressing a smile that was harder to hide than AK's.

He really had experience with this; wasn't that how he sent his mother in?
It's clear that this godmother has decided to offer herself up. With her looks and figure, she and her mother would be a perfect match, greatly boosting the military strength of the Tian Ce Empire!
The fact that Tang's mother was so willing to offer herself to him caught Dai Xiaoyao off guard, and for a moment he even felt like he was in a dream.

Tang's mother sighed deeply, then nodded noncommittally.

Then, the mother and son quietly chatted about some details in the kitchen.

Before long, Dai Xiaoyao placed plates of delicious dishes on the table.

When Tang's mother gracefully approached carrying the last pot of spirit mushroom soup, Li Chen's pupils constricted slightly.

Under the candlelight, Tang's mother changed into a light purple silk dress, with a silver silk belt tied around her waist, which outlined her plump waist as if it could be grasped in one hand.

Her hair had been restyled, with a white jade hairpin inserted at an angle, and a few strands of black hair hanging down her snow-white neck, swaying gently with her steps. The most captivating feature was her neckline, which, though seemingly concealed, occasionally revealed a glimpse of her breathtakingly white cleavage as she bent over to serve vegetables.

"Young master, please try this." Tang's mother placed a piece of crystal-clear spirit fish meat into Li Chen's bowl, her fingertips trembling slightly. "It is made from the silver-scaled fish unique to the cold pool in the back mountain."

Li Chen forced himself to remain calm and casually accepted the gift, saying, "You're so kind, Madam."

He deliberately touched Tang's mother's fingers as he took the bowl, feeling her soft hand tremble as if electrocuted.

Dai Xiaoyao watched all this clearly from the side, a wicked smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

He quickly finished his meal and suddenly slammed his hand on the table, exclaiming, "Oh dear! I almost forgot I still need to go to Lin Yuan City to retrieve something!"

He winked at Tang's mother, "Godmother, I'm entrusting Young Master Li to your care."

Tang's mother's chopsticks fell to the table with a "clatter," and her ears instantly turned bright red.

How could she not understand Dai Xiaoyao's implication?
But when the moment came, my heart was still pounding so hard it felt like it would burst out of my chest.

Li Chen nodded slightly, acknowledging Dai Xiaoyao's maturity and efficiency. He even wondered if he should find an opportunity to have Dai Xiaoyao stay by his side as a eunuch after he was castrated.

This is why Dai Xiaoyao didn't know what Li Chen was thinking; otherwise, she would have immediately castrated herself and knelt down to thank the emperor for his grace. "I...I'll go prepare a guest room for the young master." She hurriedly got up, but accidentally stepped on the hem of her skirt and fell forward.

It certainly looks like it's been many years since I've worn clothes like this.

Li Chen reacted quickly, grabbing her soft waist in one arm.

Upon first touch, you can feel the amazing elasticity and warmth even through the thin fabric.

Tang's mother froze in his arms, her breathing rapid and her chest heaving like waves.

"Be careful, my dear wife." Li Chen pretended to be serious as he released her hand, but as he withdrew, his thumb lightly brushed against her sensitive waist.

Tang's mother jumped back like a startled deer, lowered her head and hurried towards the inner room: "Young master, please wait a moment."

Before leaving, Dai Xiaoyao whispered in Li Chen's ear, "Your Majesty, this is a bottle of 'Spring Breeze Jade Dew Pills' that I prepared for you."

As he spoke, he handed over a bottle.

"Get out, get out, I don't need these." Li Chen laughed and cursed.

Are you kidding me? Do you think I need aphrodisiacs?

However, Dai Xiaoyao meant well, so Li Chen didn't say anything.

After Dai Xiaoyao left, the room became so quiet that the crackling of the burning candle wick could be heard.

Tang's mother lingered in the inner room for a long time before finally coming out, her cheeks flushed red: "Young master, the guest room is ready."

This is still Tang Shan's room. If Tang Shan knew what kind of intense drama was about to unfold in her room, what would she think?

Li Chen followed her through the corridor, his gaze involuntarily falling on the graceful figure swaying in front of him.

The skirt had been replaced with a lighter, thinner gauze, and her long, slender legs were faintly visible as she walked.

Her hair was a little loose, with a few strands of black hair clinging to the back of her slightly sweaty neck, emitting a faint fragrance.

The guest room was small, but it was spotless.

The bed was covered with a brand-new brocade quilt, and you could faintly smell the scent of sunshine.

As Tang's mother knelt by the bed tidying the corners of the quilt, her collar opened slightly with the movement, revealing a section of her jade-like shoulder.

"Young Master." She turned around to speak, but found that Li Chen was already standing behind her, so close that she could feel each other's breath.

In the candlelight, Tang's mother's eyes were as bright as stars, her red lips parted slightly, and her breath carried a faint fragrance of tea.

Li Chen reached out and brushed away the stray strands of hair that fell across her forehead, his fingertips deliberately brushing against her earlobe, where a lovely pink blush immediately appeared.

"Is Madam trembling?" Li Chen chuckled softly, his voice hoarse.

Tang's mother bit her lower lip and shook her head, but couldn't stop her body from trembling slightly.

She never imagined that one day she would be driven to such a predicament by a young man.

Even more absurdly, she didn't feel disgusted; instead, she felt a secret anticipation.
