As long as I use the method Nanyan suggested, even the North Prince’s strength will be useless when the time comes.
With this thought, Xiao Wenyao calmed down slightly. Then, she began to speak with a stammer, “Prince… Prince, you have arrived.”
Though she was much calmer than before, Xiao Wenyao’s heart was still incredibly nervous.
Seeing Xiao Wenyao’s face flushed with nervousness, Lu Chen smiled faintly and then said, “Yaoyao, I heard that the women of the grasslands are particularly bold. Why are you so nervous to see me? Do you think I’m going to devour you?”
Xiao Wenyao immediately denied, “Prince… Prince, I… I’m not nervous.”
Lu Chen chuckled, then walked straight to the bedside.
Seeing Lu Chen suddenly draw near, Xiao Wenyao felt her heart begin to race again. Her body involuntarily wanted to flee the place, but just as she was about to move, Lu Chen’s strong arms wrapped around her.
In an instant, Xiao Wenyao caught a whiff of a unique masculine scent, strange but at the same time intoxicatingly pleasant to her.
Her body unconsciously wanted to get even closer to Lu Chen.
At that moment, Xiao Wenyao asked, “Prince… Prince, did you… did you go to see Nanyan?”
Lu Chen replied, “I just came from her place. Why? Are you unhappy because I didn’t come to see you first?”
Xiao Wenyao quickly said, “I… I’m not unhappy.”
Xiao Wenyao was still sensible enough not to express any dissatisfaction with what Lu Chen did. Although she was now married to Lu Chen, she was very aware that she was still his captive, still a female slave of the North Prince.
Only by humbling herself could she survive better in the North Prince Mansion -a reminder Nanyan had given her, which Xiao Wenyao always held close to her heart.
At this time, Lu Chen held Xiao Wenyao in his embrace and then pinched her body, laughing as he said, “It seems you’re quite different from Nanyan. Your muscles are more developed, making you appear stronger.
Although Nanyan was a Ninth Grade Martial Artist, thanks to the Martial Arts she practiced, her body didn’t have too many evident muscles. Her body was primarily covered with fat, which was evenly distributed.
An even distribution of body fat had a big advantage for a woman: it preserved beauty by making her look voluptuous without appearing fat. The entire body felt incredibly soft to embrace, and with fat being a good insulator, it gave a warm and passionate sensation.
In comparison to Nanyan, Xiao Wenyao didn’t have as much fat on her body, which felt inferior to the touch.
However, because of her habitual horseback riding, the muscles on her body were particularly firm, especially her long legs.
Hearing Lu Chen’s assessment of herself, Xiao Wenyao quietly said, “I… I often ride horses, so my body is more toned… more solid.”
Lu Chen smiled and said, “Being a bit toned is good too.”
At that moment, blushing, Xiao Wenyao said, “Prince… Prince, let… let me serve you and help you rest.”
Then, Xiao Wenyao tried to assume the role of a female slave, even changing the self-referential “I” to “slave.” Among her Barbarian Tribe, slaves referred to themselves in this way.
Xiao Wenyao couldn’t wait to ensnare Lu Chen. She feared he would torment her, and only by capturing his weak spot could she avoid being tormented by Lu
Chen.
Suddenly, she felt that Nanyan’s method was excellent, even admiring Nanyan
a little.
Although Lu Chen was a Grandmaster and their strength certainly couldn’t match his, there was no doubt about it. But as long as they trapped Lu Chen, he would be powerless against them.
To trap Lu Chen, she had to lower her stance and let Lu Chen drop his guard. At this moment, Lu Chen was completely unaware that the woman in front of him was already plotting how to deal with him, still thinking Xiao Wenyao was just an innocent girl from the grasslands.
Seeing Xiao Wenyao so proactive, Lu Chen said with a smile, “Alright. He then laid Xiao Wenyao down on the bed, and she actively began to unbuckle his belt, thinking about quickly deceiving Lu Chen and then seizing the opportunity to learn from Nanyan’s ways.
Soon, Lu Chen “fell into the trap.”
Xiao Wenyao’s plan was successful.
But at the moment her plan succeeded, she finally realized something was
amiss.
“Mmm… liar…”
“[Congratulations, host, for acquiring another concubine. You have been rewarded with the breeding techniques of sorghum and the production methods of sorghum wine.]”
” [Host has cultivated a relationship with Xiao Wenyao once, Qi Refinement Mantra experience has increased by 60, Rejuvenating Skill experience has increased by 60, Dragon-Phenix Yin-Yang Spell experience has increased by
6o.J”
At the same time.
Outside the Prince’s Mansion.
Qin Yushan was hurriedly entering the Prince’s Mansion, and upon seeing the lights and decorations, he hesitated.
Today was a day of great joy for the Prince’s Mansion; was it really suitable for him to seek out the Prince at this time?
Upon seeing Qin Yushan’s arrival, the ice-cold beauty Bai Qingqing said indifferently, “Commander Qin, what’s the matter?’
Seeing Qin Yushan’s genuinely anxious appearance, it must be something important requiring Lu Chen’s attention. As Lu Chen’s personal guard, it was natural for Bai Qingqing to inquire.
Qin Yushan quickly said, “I have intelligence from the North Land to report to the Prince, but today is his day of great joy.”
Bai Qingqing, with a poker face, said, “If it is intelligence that will not endanger North City within a day or two, just deliver it to the study.
After thinking it over, Qin Yushan then said, “Guard Bai, I understand. However, when the Prince comes out later, please remind him that there is intelligence from the North Land in the study, and ask him to take a look.” Bai Qingqing coldly uttered a “Fine,” and then fell silent once more.
Right after, Qin Yushan immediately delivered the intelligence he had just received to Lu Chen’s study.
In this moment.
Great Sum, Capital city.
Residence of the Eighth Prince.
After leaving North City, Wang Yong did not return to the Wang Family but instead went straight to the Capital city, staying by Prince Lu Shuyun’s side. Today, the Eighth Prince’s Mansion was once again filled with people. Although last time, Lu Shuyun’s staff and servants were wiped out to the last, Lu Shuyun was, after all, a prince, and it didn’t take long for a large group of staff and visitors to gather around him again.
Inside the council hall, everyone’s expressions were serious, as if they were discussing something important.
Right then, Wang Yong spoke to Lu Shuyun, “Your Highness, to my knowledge, the State Preceptor visited North City not long ago. Although this news isn’t widely known, and there don’t seem to be any special movements from the Imperial Palace, there are still whispers in the wind.”
Situ Ce is a National Pillar of Great Sum, the foremost defender of Capital city’s security and the most crucial person protecting the Imperial Palace. Should he leave the Palace, normally, the Palace would go under martial law and there would be significant commotion.
But the Sum Emperor isn’t foolish-if the Palace really did so, it would be tantamount to telling everyone that Situ Ce had left the Imperial Palace.
To avoid disclosing Situ Ce’s departure, the Capital city and the Imperial Palace have had no major personnel movements, maintaining an appearance of calm and tranquility.
However, there are no walls in the world that do not let any wind through. After all, Situ Ce is a Grandmaster, and moreover, he had gone to the Imperial Army’s camp in North City to meet Lin Xiuming.
Those always watching the Capital city could find certain traces, and piecing together these traces, deduce that Situ Ce had left for North City.
Of course, by now Situ Ce has most likely returned from North City.
After all, as the State Preceptor and a National Pillar of Great Sum, he could not be away from the Capital city for too long.
However, Situ Ce’s visit to North City was enough to draw attention.
Upon hearing Wang Yong’s words, Lu Shuyun’s brow furrowed. He then said, . “Could it be that my royal father is really considering giving the Crown Prince’s position to my dear brother?”
Lu Shuyun’s tone clearly carried malice. Ever since the news of North Prince’s victory against the thirty thousand-strong barbarian horde at Yan County reached the Capital city, Lu Shuyun had been suppressing his inner turmoil.
At first, he truly believed that Lu Chen had been concealing his strength and was poised to leap high, taking the Crown Prince’s position for himself. However, as time passed, Lu Shuyun gradually “came to his senses.” Even if Lu Chen had always been concealing his strength, with his capabilities and the resources of North City, it was simply impossible to build an army of fifty thousand Heavy Cavalry.
