Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic Woman Uses Her Stunning Beauty to Complete Missions

Shen Chumo didn't notice anything unusual about him. She just looked at his wound carefully and continued to instruct him, "It's all out now. You have to be more careful in the future." Her tone was full of concern, which warmed Xie Yanhuai's heart.

Xie Yanhuai's voice was tender and deep as he said, "This servant understands, thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

Shen Chumo released his hand and stood up. "Alright, you should go and rest too."

As dusk approached, His Majesty still hadn't issued an edict summoning Shen Chumo to his bedchamber.

Green Sleeves and Red Leaf muttered to themselves, "What's wrong with the Emperor? He specially issued an edict to bring the Empress into the palace, but after she entered, he just left her here in Liuyun Palace and ignored her. Is he just playing with her?"

If Shen Chumo had heard this, he would have just shaken his head and said, "Silly girl, the Emperor has always been in Liuyun Palace, you just don't know it."

Shen Chumo lay on the couch with a boneless grace. She glanced at the sky and instructed, "Green Sleeve, I want to take a bath today. Go and prepare hot water and flower petals."

Green Sleeves curtsied and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yanhuai's eyes flickered slightly, and a meaningful expression appeared on his face, as if he had thought of something.

Soon everything needed for bathing was prepared. Shen Chumo waved her hand and said gently, "Go down. I don't like having someone around when I bathe."

Upon hearing the door close, Shen Chumo slowly removed her clothes and hung them on the screen beside her, revealing skin as white as mutton fat jade.

Wisps of steam rose from the bathtub, like a light veil enveloping the space.

Shen Chumo stepped into the bathtub, and the warm water instantly enveloped her, bringing a comfortable sensation.

She leaned gently against the edge of the bathtub, her long, black hair cascading down her back like a waterfall, intertwining with the petals floating on the water.

In the misty steam, her face appeared even more radiant and beautiful. Her arched eyebrows, her eyes that shone like stars, her straight nose, and her slightly red lips created a stunningly beautiful picture.

At this moment, Xie Yanhuai stood outside the screen, arms crossed, a half-smile playing on his lips.

An evil voice spoke in his mind: "I am the emperor, and Shen Chumo is my concubine. What's wrong with me looking at her?" The voice was full of domineering and self-righteousness, as if reminding Xie Yanhuai of his noble status and power.

Another voice countered, "Peeping at someone bathing is a despicable act."

Two voices were arguing incessantly in Xie Yanhuai's mind. Suddenly, the sound of water rang out. It turned out that Shen Chumo was gently scooping up a handful of water and sprinkling it on her skin.

Xie Yanhuai saw a stunningly beautiful profile through the screen. The slightly raised arm was like a piece of white jade, and water droplets slid down the skin, shimmering with a captivating light in the candlelight.

Her neck was long and elegant, as noble as a swan. Her long, dark hair, damp and clinging to her shoulders, added to her allure.

Xie Yanhuai was so captivated by the beautiful scenery that he forgot to think for a moment. His gaze was fixed on Shen Chumo and he couldn't look away.

The two voices in his heart gradually quieted down, leaving only a strong desire that kept expanding: he wanted to get closer to her and hold her in his arms.

At this moment, Shen Chumo seemed to sense something, turned her head slightly, and a hint of vigilance flashed in her eyes.

Xie Yanhuai's eyes flashed, and in that instant, he also saw Shen Chumo's face. Her exquisite beauty was like a blooming peony, vibrant and alluring, like red plum blossoms appearing and disappearing in the water.

The scene was like a dazzling array of stars illuminating his eyes, causing Xie Yanhuai's pupils to dilate, and for a moment he even forgot to breathe.

Suddenly, two streams of blood flowed from Xie Yanhuai's nostrils. Xie Yanhuai covered his nose, wiped it casually with his sleeve, slipped out of the house from the roof, and then carefully covered the roof with tiles.

On the rooftop, he stood quietly, the cool night breeze brushing against his face, trying to cool his burning cheeks and restless heart.

Finally, Xie Yanhuai couldn't resist and rushed to the cold pool behind Qianyang Palace, where he soaked for a full hour before coming out.

After Xie Yanhuai left, Shen Chumo almost burst out laughing in the bathtub. She thought he was so capable, but he turned out to be just a clueless fool.

...

Inside the Shen residence, Shen Huanyu was smashing things frantically, shouting ragely without any regard for her image, "Shen Chumo, you bitch, the number one beauty is mine, you're the imposter!!" Her eyes were bloodshot, and her face was contorted with anger, like a wild beast that had been provoked.

Standing at the doorway, Shen Han heard Shen Huanyu's offensive words. His face turned ashen, his brows furrowed, and his eyes flashed with anger. He snapped, "Shut up right now! How dare you say such things?"

Shen Huanyu stopped, biting her lower lip in frustration, leaving a deep mark on her bright red lips.

Madam Xu hugged Shen Huanyu with heartache, "Master, Huan'er has suffered enough today. You have no idea how awful the people outside are saying."

Shen Han knew the grievances in Shen Huanyu's heart, but he also understood that at this time, he could not let her act so willfully.

"Hmph, she's seventeen already, not a little girl anymore. Doesn't she understand the saying 'loose lips sink ships'? That title of 'most beautiful woman' is just a name. Chu Mo entered the palace for you, so what's wrong with giving her that title?"

Shen Han's tone was stern as he looked at Shen Huanyu, his eyes full of reproach.

Hearing her father's words, Shen Huanyu felt even more resentful, and tears welled up in her eyes.

“Father, but people outside are all cursing me, saying I'm shameless, that I even steal my sister's thunder, and that I'm not even as good as one of her fingers. What kind of person is Shen Chumo to compare with me?”

Her voice was filled with resentment, and her beautiful face was contorted with anger.

Shen Han looked at Shen Huanyu with disappointment, "Have you ever thought about how Chu Mo, who was always kept indoors, managed to spread the rumors throughout Chang'an overnight after entering the palace?"

Madam Xu immediately understood. Her face turned deathly pale. "Master, are you talking about that person...? Did he find out? Could it be that girl Shen Chumo told on him herself?" Madam Xu's voice trembled with fear.

Shen Han flicked his sleeves, his face grim. "Could there be a second person? I've already inquired. Chu Mo hasn't been summoned by the Emperor for two days since entering the palace. I'm afraid it's because the Emperor knew about this from the beginning."

However, you don't need to worry too much. We haven't disobeyed the imperial edict; otherwise, His Majesty wouldn't have merely spread such rumors.

Madam Xu breathed a sigh of relief, put her arm around Shen Huanyu, and said with heartache, "It's just a pity that our Huan'er has been wronged."

Shen Han's expression softened. "Huan'er, I know you feel wronged, but this matter is of utmost importance. You must not act recklessly again. Don't go out for the time being."

Shen Huanyu lowered her head slightly, looking unwilling, and said, "Daughter understands, Father."

Shen Han stroked his beard. "His Majesty has probably grown tired of Chu Mo because of this. But it's a waste to leave Chu Mo in the harem like this. So, Madam Xu, I'll write a letter tomorrow, and you can send someone to deliver it to the palace."
