Many children, many blessings; a stunningly beautiful wife is given to you right from the start.

Lin Mo waved his hand.

Li Dequan quickly led his men out, and casually pulled the other half of the broken door shut.

Only Lin Mo and Xia Youyue remained in the courtyard.

Xia Youyue's body trembled.

"You killed them?"

"Just two pieces of trash, why keep them alive for the New Year?"

Lin Mo squatted down and looked Xia Youyue straight in the eye.

"You are the Fourth Princess, Xia Youyue?"

Xia Youyue nodded.

The face covered by a black cloth turned towards Lin Mo.

My name is Lin Mo.

Xia Youyue did not show any fear, nor did she shout or scream.

"The Emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty?"

"What? You want to avenge your deadbeat third brother too?"

Lin Mo sized her up.

Xia Youyue shook her head.

"The Great Xia Dynasty is gone; its fate was sealed. What revenge can a blind man like me take?"

This mindset is better than Xia Qinghan's, that wild horse.

Lin Mo reached out and pinched Xia Youyue's chin.

It feels cool to the touch.

This dark, shadowy being has a body temperature much lower than that of an ordinary person.

"Since you don't want revenge, then follow me from now on."

Lin Mo released his hand.

Xia Youyue took a step back.

"Your Majesty has three thousand beauties in your harem, why bother with a blind man?"

"I like blind people."

Lin Mo moved forward slightly.

Xia Youyue retreated again.

"You have causal threads on your body."

Lin Mo was stunned.

"What line?"

"Cause and effect line".

Xia Youyue raised her hand and pointed at Lin Mo's chest.

"It's rough, messy, and doesn't belong to this world."

Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat.

Can this blind man see the time traveler's identity?

"Can you see?"

Lin Mo stared at the black cloth strip.

"Although I am blind, I can see air and lines."

Xia Youyue lowered her hand.

"I can see everyone's fate. Those two eunuchs were destined to die today."

Even if you don't kill them, they will die at the hands of someone else.

"And what about my fate?"

Lin Mo became interested.

"I can't see through it."

Xia Youyue shook her head.

"Your destiny is shrouded in mystery. But around you, many red threads are intertwined."

Red line?

The marriage line?

Lin Mo stood up and dusted off his hands.

"Since you can see destiny, then look at your own destiny."

"A lone star in one's destiny, bringing misfortune to family and relatives. One will not live past twenty."

Xia Youyue answered crisply and decisively.

It was as if they were talking about someone else's affairs.

"Now that you've met me, your fate is in my hands."

Lin Mo grabbed Xia Youyue's wrist.

"Come with me."

"Where to?"

Xia Youyue struggled for a moment, but couldn't break free.

"bath."

"What!?"

A crack finally appeared on Xia Youyue's usually calm face.

I said, "I want to take a shower."

Lin Mo bent down and picked Xia Youyue up horizontally.

"You, you let me go!"

Xia Youyue flailed her arms wildly and kicked her legs in mid-air.

"I'm not taking a shower!"

"You stink like a baby. If you don't take a bath, I won't let you be my empress."

Lin Mo carried Xia Youyue outside.

"I won't be an imperial concubine! Who wants to be your imperial concubine!"

Xia Youyue pounded on Lin Mo's back desperately.

That guy!

How abrupt!

He's crazy to offer to give someone a bath right off the bat!

"Behave yourself."

Lin Mo slapped Xia Youyue's shapely curves.

"If you move again, I'll strip you naked and throw you into the water tank right now."

Xia Youyue froze instantly.

Her cheeks were so red they looked like they were about to bleed.

Dead tyrant!

Animals!

Lin Mo carried the person and kicked open the courtyard gate.

Li Dequan and the Imperial Guards stood guard outside. Upon seeing this scene, they all lowered their heads.

"Prepare the carriage! To Huaqing Pool!"

……

Huaqing Pool.

The air was thick with moisture.

In the huge bathtub made of white marble, warm spring water churns.

Lin Mo placed Xia Youyue on the jade steps by the pool.

Several palace maids dressed in light gauze sprinkled a layer of red rose petals onto the water.

"Go down." Lin Mo waved his hand.

The palace maids put down their things, bowed, and withdrew.

The palace doors closed.

Only Lin Mo and Xia Youyue remained at the vast Huaqing Pool.

Xia Youyue collapsed onto the jade steps, clutching her knees tightly with both hands, her body trembling slightly.

Although she couldn't see, she could feel the rising heat around her and Lin Mo's undisguised gaze.

"Take off your clothes," Lin Mo said succinctly.

Xia Youyue shook her head violently, clutching her patched collar tightly with both hands.

"I'm not washing! I want to go back to the Cold Palace!"

Lin Mo laughed.

"Why send her back to the cold palace? To continue rotting away?"

"You smell rotten all over the place; you could be smelled from three blocks away."

Xia Youyue's cheeks flushed red, all the way to her ears.

"You are shameless! A king of a nation, forcing a blind man to bathe!"

"I'm trying to help you."

Lin Mo didn't bother with words and got straight to work.

stab.

The coarse linen clothes couldn't withstand Lin Mo's strength and tore in two.

Xia Youyue cried out in surprise, waving her hands wildly in an attempt to cover her chest.

"Why are you covering it up?"

Lin Mo grabbed her wrist and twisted her hands behind her back.

"With your withered, sauerkraut-like appearance, any random palace maid in the harem would be better than you. Why would I be afraid of getting a sty?"

Xia Youyue was so angry that she trembled all over.

This tyrant! He strips people naked and then launches a personal attack!

thump!

Lin Mo grabbed Xia Youyue by the back of her collar and threw her directly into the bathtub.

Water splashed everywhere.

"Ahem!"

Xia Youyue choked on two mouthfuls of water before she could react and thrashed about in the pool.

"Help! I can't swim!"

Lin Mo stepped into the bathtub, the water reaching above his waist.

He grabbed Xia Youyue by the waist and lifted her up.

"The bathtub is so shallow, can't you just stand up?"

Xia Youyue clung tightly to Lin Mo's neck as if grasping at a lifeline.

"I...I'm afraid of water..."

The two were pressed tightly together.

Xia Youyue's body temperature was extremely low, and when she pressed against Lin Mo's burning hot chest, it was like experiencing both ice and fire.

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.

This dark, ghostly entity is quite interesting; it has a built-in cooling effect, so you don't even need an ice basin in the summer.

He took the soft palm leaf from the poolside and pressed it onto Xia Youyue's back.

Start refreshing.

"What are you doing!"

Xia Youyue noticed the rough touch on her back and struggled desperately.

"Scrub off the dirt."

Lin Mo exerted force.

"You've accumulated enough clay over the past ten years to sculpt a terracotta warrior. Behave yourself!"

Xia Youyue was filled with shame and indignation.

She had never been treated so lightly by a man before!

What's more, this man is the enemy who destroyed her Great Xia!

"Let go of me! I'll wash myself!"

Xia Youyue opened her mouth and bit Lin Mo's shoulder.

Lin Mo neither dodged nor evaded.

bang.

Xia Youyue's teeth ached, as if she had bitten into a piece of iron.

"Born in the Year of the Dog? The Ninth Princess likes to bite people, and you like to bite people too. Does your Xia family royal family have a hereditary rabies disease?"

Lin Mo pressed down on the back of her head, the soft palm in his hand sliding down her spine.

Xia Youyue's whole body stiffened.

The large hand was scorching hot, and wherever it passed, it seemed to ignite flames.

She couldn't see; all her senses were focused on her skin.

Every touch from Lin Mo made her heart race and her breathing quicken.

"You...you mustn't touch there..."

Xia Youyue's voice trembled, tinged with tears.
