Chapter 452: Chapter 274: When Can This Palace Return to My Hometown..._3

Lu Chen received the envelope from Wang Qingci and opened it to see the contents.

Upon seeing what was inside, Lu Chen chuckled to himself.

After hearing Lu Chen's laughter, Wang Qingci teased, "Is the Prince delighted because he knows that the great beauty Wu Junwan is coming, and he can't help but laugh out loud?"

Hearing this, Lu Chen chuckled and then said, "You little minx, you actually dare tease your master, it seems you haven't been disciplined enough by me?"

Wang Qingci snorted with laughter, then responded, "This humble one is already used to it, no matter how the Prince treats me, I am fearless."

Facing Wang Qingci's challenge, Lu Chen said, "Oh, is that so?"

"Then until tomorrow evening, I will be in my room, having a heart-to-heart with Mr. Wang."

Having said that, Lu Chen used his spiritual energy to tear the intelligence report in his hand to shreds, then bent down again and continued his earnest conversation with Wang Qingci.

Inside the Prince's Mansion.

Lin Wanyun paced back and forth outside the main courtyard, seemingly anxious about something. Just then, Chu Yuqin came to the main courtyard looking for Mu Zixuan for some matter and saw Lin Wanyun walking back and forth at the entrance. Out of curiosity, Chu Yuqin asked, "Lin, do you have something you wish to discuss with Chen'er?"

Upon hearing Chu Yuqin's voice, Lin Wanyun paused and then turned to look at Chu Yuqin, saying, "Um, I'm not sure if I should bring it up with him."

Chu Yuqin quickly caught on, almost guessing what it might be. The only thing that could make Lin Wanyun this concerned would probably have to do with Chen Wanrong.

It was highly likely that something had happened to Chen Wanrong after she returned to the Mysterious Moon Palace.

With that in mind, Chu Yuqin asked, "Is it about Miss Chen?"

Lin Wanyun nodded, her expression full of worry, but she said nothing.

Chu Yuqin continued, "Chen'er is not in the main courtyard. I just heard some noise coming from that bitch Wang Qingci's room; he might be disciplining that female slave."

Lin Wanyun replied, "I understand."

After that, Lin Wanyun turned and left the main courtyard, but instead of heading towards Wang Qingci's quarters, she went in the opposite direction, apparently deciding not to disclose Chen Wanrong's situation to Lu Chen for the time being.

Chu Yuqin didn't give it much thought and entered the main courtyard directly, seeking Mu Zixuan to inquire about prenatal care methods.

The next morning.

A jade hand lingered on the door of a room, only to be swiftly pulled back by another hand. Then, sounds of Wang Qingci repeatedly begging for mercy could be heard by Yelv Nanyan and Xiao Wenyao in the neighboring courtyard.

At that time, Xiao Wenyao was having breakfast in Yelv Nanyan's room. After taking a bite of a steamed bun and a sip of porridge, she said, "It must be that Wang angered the Prince last night."

"The Prince isn't usually so fierce."

This time Xiao Wenyao accompanied Lu Chen to Great Yu City, serving him every day. Although he had been harsher with her compared to Mu Zixuan and the others, he had never been so brutal as to make her cry out in despair.

Wang Qingci was different; from last night's continuous wailing until this morning, even the people in the next courtyard could hear her. In Xiao Wenyao's opinion, this was clearly the Prince's anger showing, which was why he was being so fierce.

Smiling faintly at Xiao Wenyao's remark, Yelv Nanyan then said, "It's not about being provoked or not; this is simply the Prince's way of getting along with his sister Wang."

"The Prince has a different way of getting along with each of his wives and concubines. He adopts an approach that matches our personalities."

"Isn't it always like this when he visits sister Wang's room?"

Xiao Wenyao considered it for a moment, then tossed the rest of the bun into her mouth, chewed it a few times, and said, "That's true. Every time the Prince visits sister Wang's room, it's never a pleasant experience for her."

Just then, Wang Qingci's voice suddenly became loud, startling Xiao Wenyao. With a somewhat schadenfreude expression, Xiao Wenyao said, "Fortunately, the Prince is relatively gentle with me; he has never been that cruel to me."

...

At dusk.

The setting sun cast a glow.

Reddish rays of twilight crept over the windowsill into the room, bathing the sweat-drenched skin of the occupants in a bronze hue. Enjoy tales on m-vle-mp _yr.

At this time, Lu Chen sat on the edge of the bed, turning to glance out the window, then looking at Wang Qingci sprawled on the bed before saying, "I keep my word, is Mr. Wang satisfied with the Prince's punishment?"

"If Mr. Wang feels wronged, feel free to speak up, I would be happy to keep you company."

Upon hearing this, Wang Qingci hastily said, "Master, you are the most formidable, your humble servant was ignorant and dared to challenge you, please have mercy on me..."

Lu Chen snorted with amusement, patted her derriere, then got up to dress and promptly left the room.

As Lu Chen stepped out of the room and looked at the evening sky, he thought to himself that it wasn't good to be so decadent on his first day back from Great Yu City.

However, it was a pity; he had assumed that if he had more time, and Wang Qingci had no chance to expel the impurities from her body with her practice, he could have made her fall prey just as Chu Yuqin had last time.

Unfortunately, his plan failed this time.

It seemed he would have to wait for another opportunity to test on Yelv Nanyan, perhaps by dragging out the time longer, he might succeed.

Lu Chen didn't dwell on it. He walked towards the grand hall, planning to go back for dinner. After being busy all day and night, he was also hungry.

When he arrived at the grand hall, several of Lu Chen's wives and concubines were already seated at the dining table. Seeing Lu Chen arrive, they all gazed at him intently. Smiling, Lu Chen said, "Why are you all staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?"

As he spoke, he sat down, and then Chu Yuqin said quietly, "Chen'er, yesterday Lin came to the main courtyard looking for you."

Hearing this, Lu Chen asked curiously, "Looking for me? What for?"

Chu Yuqin answered, "Judging by her troubled expression, it's most likely about Miss Chen."

At those words, the smile on Lu Chen's face instantly froze.

He immediately got up and said, "Go ahead and have dinner; don't wait for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chen went straight to Yunrong Courtyard.
