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

"I can't say anything to you, hey, look what that snake den is doing!" the leader suddenly exclaimed.

The snake breeder looked over and saw the snakes entangled together, which gave him goosebumps again.

"Hurry, hurry, we need to pay more, otherwise I'll keep getting goosebumps!"

But no one responded. When the snake keeper looked over, the leader had already led his team away on their snow wolves and snow leopards.

......

“Yongzhen…” Chu Mingkong called the girl’s name softly, but his words were a little slurred.

"Hmm...?" The response was somewhat muffled.

In the midst of the blissful, intoxicating atmosphere, Chu Mingkong asked a very foolish question:

"I was thinking, what if our tongues got all tied up right now? It seems like they're a bit too tangled."

It's perfectly normal to use your mouth during cultivation, right?

But after he flicked Yongzhen's teeth with his forked tongue, Yongzhen responded with her own forked tongue. As they flicked each other's teeth, they did indeed get a bit tangled.

Yongzhen looked at him speechlessly, but this did not dampen her spirits or diminish her interest in cultivation.

Because she'd lost interest and it was pointless anyway, she'd already been deeply entrenched by Chu Mingkong...

"Then... I'll cut off your forked tongue and slowly untie it myself..." Yongzhen held Chu Mingkong with both arms and legs. Although her body was not in the form of a snake, the entangled embrace resembled a snake coiled together, making it impossible to distinguish between you and me.

"How cruel!"

Chu Mingkong slowly dissipated Qingning's inherited power, allowing his tongue to return to its original state. Yongzhen's mouth suddenly felt empty as the restraint loosened. Her beautiful, dreamy yet defiant eyes stared at him, a hint of doubt flashing within them.

There was a hint of resentment in this confusion, as if she was unhappy that he had suddenly separated from her at this time.

"My tongue is numb, and you were just chatting with Madam Zhen, right? I shouldn't make any big movements, so let's chat slowly?"

Even if Chu Mingkong had malicious intentions, he would still consider the occasion. Right now, it was indeed not a good time to train Yongzhen too harshly.

When Yongzhen heard him say that, she accepted his reasoning and rationally agreed with his concern, but emotionally she was still dissatisfied with his statement that he could just make it out (referring to the snake's tongue).

Yongzhen, her cheeks flushed, returned to her serious expression with a stern face, but she didn't look very imposing. Instead, she seemed more like Rong'er, which only fueled Chu Mingkong's reckless enthusiasm for rushing into the cave.

"Well, whatever you want... Anyway, you were the one who insisted on doing things recklessly in the first place, so say what you will..."

Chu Mingkong suppressed his inner turmoil and, while slowly advancing his cultivation, asked curiously:

"Yongzhen, why are you being so proactive this time? I've never seen you hug me so tightly before..."

The aloof princess frowned, enduring the pain, and said with a slight reproach:

"Because...because I don't want you to act too recklessly!"

In this situation, Yongzhen was genuinely worried that he was too energetic. Since she couldn't push him away, she could only change her approach and hug him tightly.

By holding him tightly like this, at least the fluctuations in his cultivation could be controlled to prevent them from becoming too extreme.

Otherwise, he would always raise his head to the highest point before letting it fall to the bottom in one breath, without paying any attention to the gradual progress of cultivation. Yongzhen was afraid of embarrassing herself in front of her mother.

Even though her doll body did nothing while with her mother, Madam Zhen, her body was still constantly receiving the sensations brought by Chu Mingkong.

If one is not careful and loses focus, the leakage of spiritual energy will be discovered by Madam Zhen, and one will be so embarrassed that one will have nowhere to hide!

Chapter 387 Stop, stop, stop!

Chu Mingkong put his hands behind his back and touched her, sliding along Yongzhen's plump, jade-like legs to her delicate, bony ankles, gently grasping them and slowly guiding her feet towards him.

Those beautiful legs, with their plump thighs and slender calves, were not only long but also exceptionally flexible. Even a gentle press revealed no stiffness in the joints, making them truly like a sexy white python.

This wasn't the first time Chu Mingkong had helped Yongzhen stretch her legs; most of the women in the manor had similar experiences. However, after Yongzhen received Bai Niang's inheritance, her body became increasingly supple and boneless.

Although Yongzhen did not resist, seeing that he was about to kiss her again, she put on a stern face and scolded him coquettishly:

"Don't always kiss me everywhere..."

"Okay, okay, then we won't kiss this time~" Chu Mingkong tried his best to comply with Yongzhen.

After all, it was difficult for him to judge which of Yongzhen's words were insincere and which were genuinely meant to avoid causing too much of a reaction. If Chu Mingkong acted recklessly and embarrassed her in front of Madam Zhen, it would be troublesome.

Chu Mingkong thought about it again. Since he was going to accommodate Yongzhen as much as possible, he simply turned over while holding Yongzhen.

A dramatic change occurred. The cool and aloof princess suddenly felt a blur before her eyes, her delicate body swayed, and she found herself sitting up, with Chu Mingkong cushioning her weight.

"Let's go with your own feelings this time, Yongzhen. By the way, Yongzhen, when you mentioned the baby to Madam Zhen earlier, have you thought about what name you would like for your future baby?"

Yongzhen met his gaze, feeling a little embarrassed by his intense stare. She raised her delicate feet and lightly stepped on his face to block his view.

The soft, warm forefoot, with the adorable softness of a cat's paw, pressed against his eye sockets, feeling as soft as an eye massage, while each delicate toe curled up at times, like soft claws gently scratching his eyebrows.

Chu Mingkong suddenly felt a darkness before his eyes, and could no longer see Yongzhen's beautiful face. But he felt no sense of loss; instead, he felt a different kind of satisfaction.

All that could be heard was Yongzhen softly saying:

"Why are you asking about the baby, Mingkong?"

"What do you mean 'me too'... I was just curious about your imagery because I overheard you talking to Madam Zhen~"

"Thinking about it... a bit too early..." Yongzhen's voice was barely fluent and natural, but her tone was somewhat intermittent, and her voice seemed to be following some kind of undulating rhythm.

"Anyway, I won't lose out."

As Chu Mingkong was speaking, he suddenly kissed the princess's jade-like heel, and she reflexively tensed up.

In that instant, Chu Mingkong could clearly feel that the force of her grip had increased significantly.

Yongzhen was afraid he would continue to act recklessly, so she started to think about it. However, she didn't have the time to carefully consider the baby's name at the moment, so she "borrowed" a name from what her mother had mentioned earlier.

"Then, then let's call her Meow Meow?"

"..."

This name made Chu Mingkong fall silent for a moment. Did he really like this name that much?

"Is there anything special about this little lamb? Why are you all vying for this nickname?"

"You guys?" Although Yongzhen's mind was in a mess, she still retained a sharp edge.

Chu Mingkong felt a little flustered and touched her toes as he explained:

"You and Madam Zhen, didn't Madam Zhen just mention this name to you?"

"Hmm, I think this is acceptable..."

Yongzhen persisted for a little while, mainly because she really couldn't think of anything else. If she really had to change it, she could probably only say something like a rabbit, a bear, a turtle, a cow, etc.

What was said in jest was taken seriously by Chu Mingkong. He silently remembered this matter and would ask Zhi'er Baobao if she could change her name, so that Yongzhen could have a nickname in advance.

He was wondering what to do if his baby was having a little tantrum when Yongzhen suddenly placed her hands on his chest, her full, soft breasts trembling slightly.

Her lower back was a little weak and limp, but she was too stubborn to speak up and didn't want to give in.

Chu Mingkong noticed her situation and said accordingly:

"Lie down, I just want to give you a hug~"

He pushed the woman's arm away, and Yongzhen's soft body gently fell onto his chest, flattening his full heart.

On the other side, Yongzhen, standing in front of Madam Zhen, breathed a sigh of relief, but she couldn't completely relax.

Even though Chu Mingkong wasn't doing anything reckless now, and was just quietly holding her, the areas that needed to be pressed against her were still tightly throbbing, and soon she wouldn't be able to hold back anymore...

“Mother, we’ve been talking for so long, shall we lie down and rest for a bit? We can talk again after we’ve had enough sleep,” she asked softly, her delicate eyebrows trembling slightly.

"Ok!"

Madam Zhen had long wanted her daughter to rest. She didn't quite understand Yongzhen's reasoning of resting while still exercising. She felt that her daughter was pushing herself too hard and should rest when she needed to. She figured a little more chatting wouldn't make a difference.

After taking off her shoes and socks, the beautiful woman lay down to rest and closed her eyes to relax.

Yongzhen lay down next to her mother. After a short while, she silently covered her mouth, her delicate body trembling slightly. Her teeth were bitten so hard that her red lips turned white.

She used her limited energy to control a small water sphere emanating a woman's fragrance, which flew out and entered Chu Mingkong's Nirvana Domain.

Chu Mingkong was stunned when he saw the water ball. He had just been worried that if Yongzhen accidentally wet Madam Zhen's clothes, it would be difficult to cover it up.

I never expected there could be such a method.

Yongzhen took the water ball, looked up at Chu Mingkong with a resentful expression, and splashed the water ball all over him.

This can be considered punishment for his reckless and inappropriate behavior.

Chu Mingkong shamelessly said, "I wouldn't mind if you threw it in my mouth."

Yongzhen, her face flushed, retorted angrily, "Disgusting..."

Despite being scolded, Chu Mingkong still had a smile on his face. He confirmed that he had successfully obtained a wisp of the Soul Transfer Technique from Yongzhen, and his plan was complete!

But he still wanted to enjoy Yongzhen's warm and fragrant body a little longer, so he put his arm around her shoulder and chatted with her casually.

“Yongzhen, actually I don’t understand why you are always so hardworking?”

Do you have any other plans in mind, such as being unable to let go of the Heavenly Pole Empire and wanting to reclaim your position? Don't worry too much, feel free to tell me anything...

From Chu Mingkong's point of view, effort must be purposeful and goal-oriented, and Yongzhen's efforts began in the capital, even before the two met.

Furthermore, when Chu Mingkong first met Yongzhen, aside from the impression of her frailty brought about by Madam Zhen's soul transfer, Yongzhen also gave him a rather clear sense of strength.

Although the royal family did not treat Yongzhen and her friends very well, it does not mean that Yongzhen really hates the entire royal family. Perhaps she has some sense of honor and identification with her bloodline ancestors?

Chu Mingkong saw no problem with this. The dog emperor could only represent the royal family during his time, and the royal family was a place with a lot of infighting. Yongzhen's dislike of the emperor did not conflict with her recognition of the royal family's lineage.

It can also be understood as the sentiments and beliefs of "restoring the Han Dynasty" from a previous life.

If Yongzhen truly has such thoughts, Chu Mingkong will not stop her. He could even return Xiling to the Tianji Royal Family and make Xiaoxiang Qin Academy and Wenqing Pavilion her backers.

However, even if the royal family was restored at that time, it was basically unrelated to the previous one. It could be said that it was a royal family consisting of only Emma.

Chu Mingkong would definitely keep one of Yongzhen by his side, at most letting her use her clone to do what she wanted.

It's almost certain that he'll be leaving Xiling in the future, so entrusting Xiling to Yongzhen wouldn't be a problem.

Yongzhen remained silent for a long time, not expecting Chu Mingkong to bring up the topic so suddenly, and to take it so far off course...

"What exactly is the purpose of my current efforts? To be honest, I'm not quite sure myself."

Initially, I wanted to protect myself and my mother. When the late emperor went mad in his later years and deposed my mother, I realized for the first time how fragile and powerless my status and reputation were. I could only rely on myself and enrich myself as much as possible.

As you know, back then, Mingkong, the emperor's abilities were mediocre, and he inexplicably fell seriously ill and couldn't get out of bed for a long time. If those royal children had ideas about seizing power, I might have been able to take advantage of the situation and leave with my mother. My abilities would have become a bargaining chip, so I should have worked hard to improve myself.
