Chapter 2005 I had no such thoughts
Feeling Lu Chen's intense passion, Ji Yunmeng's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
However, she still pretended not to understand what Lu Chen was saying and asked in a cold voice, "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Lu Chen said, "It seems my wife doesn't trust me, so she doesn't dare to tell me what's on her mind."
Seeing that Lu Chen was still testing her, Ji Yunmeng said directly, "Do you think I was sent by His Majesty to monitor the Zhennan Prince's Mansion?"
Ji Yunmeng always believed that Lu Chen had not realized her true ambition. Perhaps in the eyes of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, she was just sent by the Zhou Emperor to monitor the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, which is why the Zhennan Prince sent Lu Chen to test him.
Seeing that Ji Yunmeng was unwilling to be honest with him, Lu Chen grabbed her wrists with both hands, pressed her hands to the sides of her head, then leaned down and whispered in her ear, "I know you want to be empress."
These words struck Ji Yunmeng like a bolt from the blue, leaving her completely stunned.
She couldn't believe that Lu Chen knew about her ambitions.
That's not right. She hid it so well, how could Lu Chen possibly tell?
Was it the Prince of Zhennan who figured it out? But how did the Prince of Zhennan figure it out?
Wait, Lu Chen knows the art of judging people, does that mean Lu Chen might have some kind of ability to read people's minds?
She had previously suspected that Lu Chen might have mind-reading abilities, the so-called ability to recognize people being the same as mind-reading, but she dared not think in that direction. If he could read people's minds, Lu Chen's abilities would be too terrifying, and she would have no secrets from him.
Just as Ji Yunmeng was shocked that Lu Chen knew her ambition, Lu Chen continued to whisper in her ear, "Not only do I know your ambition, but I can also help you ascend to that position."
Ji Yunmeng's mind went blank again; she couldn't believe what Lu Chen had said.
The fact that her ambition can be seen from the Zhennan Prince's Mansion shows that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion is not ordinary, or rather, that Lu Chen is not simple.
Now that the Prince of Zhennan's mansion has the ability to rebel, once the 100,000-strong army of Guangling County is assembled, and with the Zhengui Division in the hands of the Prince of Zhennan's mansion, it would be incredibly easy for them to plot a rebellion. If the Prince of Zhennan's mansion, which already possesses the ability to rebel, truly wanted to do so, why would they possibly recommend someone else to be emperor?
After regaining her senses, Ji Yunmeng tentatively asked, "Can you read minds?"
She was now eager to know whether Lu Chen could read minds or whether all of this was just Lu Chen's speculation.
If Lu Chen can read minds, then she won't be able to hide any secrets from him, which would be troublesome.
But if Lu Chen only guessed that she wanted to be empress, then she could still pretend a little in front of Lu Chen in the future, or she could deny it to the death.
Lu Chen replied, "I don't have any mind-reading abilities."
Ji Yunmeng said, "Since you can't read minds, how do you know what my ambitions are?"
Lu Chen said, "Oh? So you're admitting you want to be emperor?"
Ji Yunmeng retorted defiantly, "I didn't say that. It's all just your speculation."
Ji Yunmeng thought to herself, "That's true. Using any kind of supernatural technique comes at a huge price."
Using such a heaven-defying and extraordinary ability as mind reading comes at an even greater price.
Lu Chen has only just become a Spirit Warrior, how could he possibly use mind reading?
To read a person's thoughts, one must possess extremely strong mental power.
Lu Chen is only a few years old this year, and his mental strength should not be strong enough to activate a supernatural ability like mind reading.
Ji Yunmeng realized she was scaring herself. Since it was all just Lu Chen's guess, she could continue to play dumb. Seeing that Ji Yunmeng still wouldn't admit it, Lu Chen smiled and said, "I'm already planning to help you, and you still won't admit it? With such a timid wife, how can you ever reach that position?"
Hearing this, Ji Yunmeng remained unmoved, still believing that Lu Chen was testing her.
At this moment, Lu Chen breathed hot air into Ji Yunmeng's ear and then continued to deceive her, saying, "Actually, I can see a person's destiny. You have the destiny of an emperor, so I can guess your ambition."
Ji Yunmeng said coldly at this moment, "Enough, there's no need to test me anymore. I have no such intentions."
She didn't believe what Lu Chen said. If she admitted it now, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion would definitely be on guard against her in every way.
At this moment, Ji Yunmeng regretted marrying Lu Chen. Now that Lu Chen had guessed her purpose, he would definitely not let her manage the Zhennan Prince's Mansion in the future, so her marriage to Lu Chen was in vain.
Seeing that Ji Yunmeng was still wary of him, Lu Chen continued, "I've already said all this, but my wife still doesn't believe me."
Ji Yunmeng simply stopped talking; she knew she would never admit it anyway.
She was well aware of how difficult it was for a woman to become an emperor in this era.
If she were to reveal her plan now, all her schemes would be in vain.
Since she had this idea, she had not told anyone about her plan, not even her two personal maids, nor even the court officials on her side.
Those people thought she wanted more power; no one ever considered that she wanted to take that position.
Lu Chen also knew that it would not be easy to get Ji Yunmeng to reveal her thoughts, since it was Ji Yunmeng's biggest secret.
Lu Chen then stood up and slowly separated from Ji Yunmeng, before lying down next to her.
Seeing that Lu Chen had finally gotten up, Ji Yunmeng breathed a sigh of relief.
The room fell silent. After a moment, Ji Yunmeng suddenly remembered something and asked, "What is your current strength?"
She suspected that Lu Chen's cultivation level was not ordinary. She couldn't even push Lu Chen away just now, which clearly showed that Lu Chen was hiding his strength.
Lu Chen didn't hide anything and answered directly, "Mid-stage Spirit Realm."
Upon hearing this, Ji Yunmeng frowned. Mid-stage Spirit Realm? How could that be!
She, who is known as the most talented woman in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, is only at the early stage of the Spirit Realm. Lu Chen, who has just become a Spirit Warrior, has already reached the middle stage of the Spirit Realm, which is one small realm higher than her.
No, perhaps Lu Chen was originally capable of practicing martial arts, but the Zhennan Prince's Mansion released false information that Lu Chen was not capable of practicing martial arts.
This doesn't seem to make sense. When Lu Chen was kidnapped from the capital by evil spirits a few months ago, it was she who rescued him. At that time, Lu Chen was just an ordinary person with no spiritual energy fluctuations in his body. She was quite sure that she hadn't misjudged him; Lu Chen was indeed an ordinary person back then.
In other words, Lu Chen did indeed become a Spirit Realm Spirit Warrior during this period. Just how terrifying must Lu Chen's talent be?
In just a few short months, he went from an ordinary person to a Spirit Realm Spirit Warrior.
After regaining her senses, Ji Yunmeng sat up abruptly, turned to look at Lu Chen lying beside her, and asked indifferently, "You didn't lie to me?"
Lu Chen put his hands behind his head, propped them up, and looked at Ji Yunmeng with a mocking expression: "Now that you are my woman, why would I need to lie to you?"
Ji Yunmeng fell silent for a moment, then asked again, "Aren't you afraid I'll tell the royal family about your current cultivation level?" (End of Chapter)
