Who is spreading rumors that my filial piety towards them has changed?

After catching her breath, Jin Yu suppressed her secret excitement. Seeing that the cat was still greedily eating, and even seemed to be switching food between Xiao Zhi and Gu Jun Gui, Jin Yu felt envious.

She casually moved closer and sat down next to Xiao Zhi, exchanging surprised glances, but carefully controlled the degree of her surprise so as not to annoy anyone.

"Mother Consort Xiao Zhi, how could you... feed this to the cat?"

Xiao Zhi and Gu Jungui talked a lot in this short period of time, and they mentioned Jin Yu quite a bit.

Now, seeing this cunning girl pretending not to know anything, the two beautiful women exchanged a smile.

Xiao Zhi was quite decisive; she looked calmly at Jin Yu:

"Jun Gui and Ming Kong have both told me about you. Would you like to have a couple of sips to moisten your throat?"

Jin Yu was quite embarrassed to have her little scheme exposed, but seeing that Xiao Zhi didn't seem to care, she spoke frankly:

"I do have a slight idea. After all, look how much the cat is eating, Mother Consort Xiao Zhi. It's eating more today than it has a few days ago. I'm also a little curious about this change in taste."

Having thoroughly enjoyed breastfeeding her granddaughter, Xiao Zhi was in a good mood. She parted the other side of her bodice and nodded, saying:

"Alright, in a few days the effects of the herbal medicine I drank might wear off, and then you won't be able to try it."

"Hmm? No need for pregnancy-related energy, I can just give the medicine to the cat?" Jin Yu suddenly felt like giving it a try.

Chapter 260 Jin Yu: Try it yourself first

She doesn't need to get pregnant, and she can even try feeding a cat. She can try it herself, since there's no burden involved.

Then you can take it back to your mother to try, so she can experience what it's like to feed a cat. Maybe then she won't be so resistant? You can also trick her by saying that she's already producing milk, and there's no point in holding it in any longer, so she might as well just stay and enjoy herself with Mingkong...

But that's not a good idea!

At this stage, Jin Yu and her mother Pei Mi are at a stalemate because Pei Mi is too difficult. Even though they always give her preferential treatment, she is still unwilling. Now is the time to make her hold back and not give in to her, otherwise she will start to act high and mighty again after she has had her fun.

Ugh, if it were at this stage, Jinyu would definitely give her mother those two doses of medicine, and also get a taste of what her mother's medicine tastes like...

Xiao Zhi was unaware that Jin Yu was plotting against her mother again while she was still in her belly. She was only satisfied to see the two girls, one big and one small, eating happily in her arms. She remembered that Yun Han and Ming Kong had also been eating her like this in the Abyss, but back then there was nothing for the children to eat.

Jin Yu slowly savored Xiao Zhi's rich, milky scent. Suddenly, the cat beside her lifted its paw and rubbed against her. Jin Yu opened her mouth and asked in confusion:

"Kitty, why are you rubbing against your sister?"

Having cared for this little guy for so long, Gu Jun Gui had a general understanding of the cat's habits. She smiled and said:

"Maomao saw you eating so intently and assumed that your food was better. That's how this little girl is, especially in front of her father. When Mingkong doesn't hold Jiao'er, Maomao acts spoiled and fearless. She's such a jealous little thing."

So you wanted to eat from my side... Jin Yu readily gave it to the cat, then sat down next to Aunt Gu, slyly and ingratiatingly taking the elder's arm:

"Aunt Gu, I just tasted the one from Consort Xiao Zhi's place. Now let me try yours right away and compare the taste differences, shall we?"

Gu Jun Gui couldn't do anything about Chu Ming Kong's girl. Just looking at Jin Yu's current state, he could imagine how Ming Kong would devour her and Xiao Zhi after finishing his current chores.

Xiao Zhi thought the same thing as Gu Jun Gui, feeling helpless and amused. However, she was thinking more about her two big children. Now that they were no longer eating each other dry, it seemed that it would be quite interesting to have another round with them.

She turned the cat around in her arms, letting it nibble on the spot where Jin Yu had just been chewing. From the force of the bite, it was clear the little girl was enjoying it even more. Xiao Zhi was both amused and helpless. She asked Jin Yu:

“Jinyu, I haven’t talked to your mother Pei Mi, and Madam Zhen and the others much, so I’m not very clear about their situations… Jinyu, do you know if there’s anything wrong with their pregnancies?”

In Qingxin Mansion, apart from Chu Mingkong and the babies who were well-liked and popular with everyone, Jin Yu was basically the only girl who could get along well with everyone.

In many cases, she was probably more aware than Xiao Zhi.

When Gu Jungui heard the Princess of Chu ask this question, he listened with some curiosity.

As for Yu Jinyu, although she had never heard anyone explicitly say that Madam Zhen and Mingkong had a relationship, seeing that Aunt Gu and Princess Chu were acting like this, she basically knew that they couldn't escape, so she wasn't surprised.

"No, I don't think so. I don't know Madam Zhen very well, but I've chatted with her quite a few times and haven't noticed anything wrong with her... My mother is the same; she's always so awkward!"

After all, she was her own mother. Jin Yu had a lot of ideas she wanted to criticize, but she still gave her some face and didn't spit on her.

While spreading gossip and rumors about other topics might seem to liven up the atmosphere, it can also make some smart people wary of her, lest they unknowingly become the target of her gossip. Therefore, when it comes to one's own mother, a brief mention is enough; details should not be discussed.

When it's time to talk about it in detail, it's usually when a group of people are rolling around in bed without caring about anything else.

"Then I'll go find Master Yun to get the medicine. I'll let Aunt Gu and Consort Xiao Zhi taste my medicine another day~"

After enjoying the pleasant meal, Jin Yu hurriedly ran to Master Yun's courtyard, obtained two prescriptions, and immediately went to the kitchen to ask the maids how to prepare the medicine, feeling that she should do it herself.

Yun Nongyu was puzzled after being asked for medicine twice in a row. Why did Princess Chu come to ask her about it recently, and Jinyu also came to ask her about it?

"Your Highness has recently taken a liking to consuming women's juices...?"

----------

In the boudoir of the Empress Dowager and her daughter, a beautiful woman dressed in plain clothes was quietly taking a nap. The sound of her daughter Yongzhen practicing her sword in the courtyard became a lullaby for the beautiful woman.

Chu Mingkong walked over, and the Domain of Annihilation swallowed her into a gray world. He squatted by the bedside and admired Madam Zhen's profile. Her face was as smooth as jade, gentle and warm, with a mature charm that was unique to women and never got old.

Perhaps it was because the sound of Yongzhen practicing swordsmanship in the Realm of Annihilation gradually disappeared that Madam Zhen noticed something was wrong and opened her eyes to check the situation.

The bewildered figure, upon seeing Chu Mingkong's face, transformed into a knowing smile that curved upwards at the corners of his mouth. Upon seeing it, Chu Mingkong couldn't help but smile back.

"Mingkong, you've come." As Madam Zhen sat up, a full bosom peeked out from her loosened collar.

Chu Mingkong was very considerate. He reached out and picked up the dumpling that was too big to hold in one hand, and put it back into his clothes.

"Madam Zhen, why are you resting and sleeping so early? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, it's just that with the change of seasons from winter to spring, it's cold in the first half of the night and hot in the second half, so I haven't been able to get a good night's rest."

Madam Zhen gently shook her head, and with her delicate hands gently pulled Chu Mingkong to rest his head on her lap, her slender hands resting on either side of his face.

"Then Madam Zhen can borrow the little cat Jiao'er to cuddle and sleep with for a few nights. The little girl's body is so warm, like a little furnace. Once you put her in the quilt, it's just hot and hot~"

"Try changing it back."

Perhaps sensing that Chu Mingkong's gaze was fixed on her two soft mounds, Madam Zhen leaned forward slightly, pressing her plump, soft breasts against his face.

This "face wash" left Chu Mingkong completely disoriented, and Madam Zhen soon noticed Chu Mingkong's awkward, erect state.

Madam Zhen sensed that he had something on his mind, so she said, "Mingkong, take off your shoes and lie down a bit. Let me massage you."

Chu Mingkong hardened his heart and refused. He still had important matters to attend to. If he dragged it out for too long, it would be bad if Yongzhen arrested him on the spot. After he raised the Extreme Yang Shield, he would have plenty of time to be intimate with Madam Zhen. He didn't care about this short time.

“Madam Zhen, no need for now... I have something I'd like to ask you for a favor.”

Chapter 261 Underpants Encircle Big Peach

Chu Mingkong asked, a little embarrassed. Although he would visit Madam Zhen from time to time, he had spent relatively less time with her recently.

As a result, they would come over and say they needed help, making it seem like they only come when they needed something.

Madam Zhen understood his subtle apology, and although Chu Mingkong, whose face was pressed against her softness, couldn't see it, she still shook her head and said:

"You're being too formal. It's only natural that you should focus on your work after returning from the East Sea. Besides, Mingkong, this is the only time you've asked me for help. Haven't you always been the one helping me before?"

"Tell me what it is."

Chu Mingkong remembered that he hadn't told Madam Zhen about the Chu Princess's first trip to the Abyss.

Before explaining his commission, it was necessary to explain the matter in detail. However, when explaining, Chu Mingkong replaced Xiao Zhi's name with "a certain woman in Qingxin Mansion".

After explaining the specific meaning of "plugin" with examples, Chu Mingkong finally revealed his request:

"I wanted to... let Madam Zhen play that role, otherwise Qingning, who does not have the cultivation of extreme Yang, would find it difficult to stay in the Extreme Abyss for too long."

Even a woman as composed as Madam Zhen felt ashamed after hearing the story hanging from her waist.

This is a bit outrageous!

She recalled which women in Qingxin Mansion possessed extremely high Yang cultivation levels, and the list of suspects was immediately clear:

"Mingkong, is this 'woman who refuses to reveal her name' the Princess Consort of Chu or Empress Pei? But given Empress Pei's personality, she probably wouldn't agree to your request, so it must be the Princess Consort of Chu...?"

Madam Zhen, if you guess like that, it's hard for me to answer! But this answer is pretty close to the truth.

"Ahem, more or less. And since we need to enter the deepest part of the abyss this time, it would be too much of a burden for Madam Zhen to go alone, so there will be others accompanying us..." Chu Mingkong explained all the risks in detail, without hiding anything, except for not specifying who the others were.

I don't want it to feel like I'm tricking people into joining a scam.

Madam Zhen had already agreed in her heart, but she hesitated to give a verbal reply because she was wondering in her mind whether she could accept having the Princess of Chu watching from the side.

Normally, being carried around by Mingkong while alone would be extremely embarrassing, but considering Qingning's urgent situation, it was understandable and acceptable.

But now there's also Princess Chu watching over us...

But so be it. Even if Princess Chu were there, she wouldn't just be watching. She herself would be carried around by Mingkong. It's all the same situation, so no one should laugh at anyone else.

The dignified and radiant woman finally nodded in response, and asked:

"Of course I'll agree to Xiao Mang. The main concern is Qing Ning. Is she really alright? Will she be able to resolve her troubles once she reaches the depths of the Abyss?"

Chu Mingkong also wanted to say "yes," but he could only say that there was a possibility of trying it. If they didn't try, they might really have no choice but to use the method of fighting Gu.

Seeing Chu Mingkong's reaction, Madam Zhen knew that the situation was not so simple, so she did not ask any further questions.

With the matter of the Extreme Yang Shield now settled, Chu Mingkong let out a long breath. His breath seeped through the seams of Madam Zhen's buttons and into her deep cleavage, making her delicate and sensitive snow-white skin itch as the breath passed through.

"Mingkong, when do you plan to set off? And how will you explain this to Yongzhen?"

"The departure time has not been set yet, but it won't be too long. It will be either tomorrow morning or the morning after tomorrow. If we leave earlier, we will have more buffer time for Qingning in the future."

As for Yongzhen, I'd like to explain that I'm taking Madam Zhen and the others of your generation on an outing to strengthen our bonds... or perhaps we could go with Master Yun to practice some Taoist health exercises.

"Ah... Master Yun is going too?!"

Madam Zhen was slightly surprised. There were far too many people in the entourage. Besides, Daoist Yun did not have the cultivation level of extreme Yang, which meant that she would not be one of the "victims" no matter what.

"I was just saying that to have Daoist Yun cover for me; I won't follow." Chu Mingkong's lips twitched; he hadn't expected Madam Zhen to react so strongly.

If Yun Nongyu and Yuehe were to go and observe Qingning's condition, they would have to hide nearby and follow her, otherwise Madam Zhen and the others would definitely not accept it.

Upon hearing this, Madam Zhen felt somewhat relieved, and her elegant and mature face let out a long sigh of relief:

"I hope Qingning can get rid of that trouble called 'price' as soon as possible. Otherwise, you can't hide the reason of a picnic from Yongzhen for more than a few days. She is very clever and will ask you about the location of the picnic in about three or four days."

Chu Mingkong was also worried about this. Was there any way to deal with it?

In many situations, it's impossible to be thorough in everything before taking action; we can only take it one step at a time.
