Chapter 496: Chapter 292: What do you think about marrying you off to the Prince?_1
Early morning.
After Lu Chen woke up, he continued to create some beautiful memories with Wang Qingci, so much so that Wang Qingci felt she couldn't hold any more memories inside her.
However, Lu Chen seemed much gentler today and did not tidy up Wang Qingci as he had before.
This made Wang Qingci somewhat unaccustomed, but she didn't pay much mind to it.
At this moment, Wang Qingci was completely unaware that she had fallen for his trap. Once she returned to her bedroom, she immediately had her maid draw water for a bath, cleaned herself, and expelled the impurities from her body through her cultivation.
Wang Qingci thought it would be just like before, without any issues.
Meanwhile, Lu Chen, beaming with joy, returned to the main courtyard. Mu Zixuan was there, gazing at the Dragon Phoenix Tree beneath it, pondering how to transport this Dragon Phoenix Tree to the new Prince's Mansion.
Seeing Mu Zixuan standing under the Dragon Phoenix Tree, staring intently at it, Lu Chen came up behind her, wrapped his arms around her slim waist, and whispered in her ear, "My love, what are you looking at?"
Upon seeing Lu Chen's return, Mu Zixuan immediately said, "Prince, we are about to move soon. What are your plans for this Dragon Phoenix Tree? Surely you cannot leave it here, can you?"
Hearing this, Lu Chen paused. He hadn't considered this issue at first.
Lu Chen looked up at the lush Dragon Phoenix Tree. It had grown rapidly at first, becoming a large tree in just a few days. Although the growth of the Dragon Phoenix Tree had slowed down, it was now as tall as a several-story building, with a thick trunk.
To relocate the Dragon Phoenix Tree to the new Prince's Mansion was indeed a huge project, but not an insurmountable problem. As long as the roots were dug out and more people were found, the tree could be transplanted to the new Prince's Mansion.
What worried him was whether the Dragon Phoenix Tree could be transplanted at all.
Then Lu Chen asked in his mind, "System, can this Dragon Phoenix Tree be transplanted?"
If the Dragon Phoenix Tree couldn't be transplanted, then it would have to stay put. In that case, he would need to assign someone to guard it, to prevent any harm to the tree.
At this moment, the system's voice echoed in Lu Chen's mind.
[It can.]
Relieved by the system's response, Lu Chen then heard the system speak again.
[After the host transplants the Dragon Phoenix Tree to the new location, you need to feed it with your blood again.]
Lu Chen thought that was no big deal, as long as the Dragon Phoenix Tree could be moved.
He then said to Mu Zixuan beside him, "In a few days, we'll get some more people to trim the branches of the Dragon Phoenix Tree, collect the branches and leaves, and then have someone dig up the roots and transplant it to the new Prince's Mansion."
Mu Zixuan continued to ask, "Can a Fairy Tree also be transplanted like this?"
Lu Chen said with a smile, "It is precisely because it is a Fairy Tree that it has a stronger vitality. It's easier for it to survive the transplant than ordinary trees."
Relieved by Lu Chen's words, Mu Zixuan realized she had been overly concerned—there was no issue with moving the tree after all.
At this moment, Mu Zixuan smiled and said, "Prince, you must have been busy all night long. You must be hungry by now. I have already asked the servants to prepare breakfast."
At this time, Lu Chen bore a very fragrant scent on him that Mu Zixuan could immediately recognize as that of Wang Qingci, which clearly indicated that Lu Chen had spent the previous night with Wang Qingci in the study.
As for what Lu Chen did in the study with Wang Qingci, there was no need to guess; a man and a woman alone in a room is self-evident.
Lu Chen replied with a slight smile, "My love understands me well, I am indeed a bit hungry."
With that, Lu Chen, holding Mu Zixuan's slender waist, walked toward the main hall.
As Lu Chen had breakfast, Mu Zixuan sat by his side watching. Suddenly, Lu Chen thought of something and spoke up, "I plan to give Wang Qingci a proper status after we move to the new residence. What do you think, my love?"
Mu Zixuan smiled slightly, "If the Prince wishes to grant her a status, then do so. There's no need to ask for my opinion."
"Wang has been with you for some time now; indeed, it's time to afford her some recognition."
Lu Chen said, "Since my love agrees, I'll leave the matter of the formal recognition to you. She is already carrying my child, so I intend to give her a complete wedding ceremony."
Upon hearing this, Mu Zixuan was taken aback, then she said, "Congratulations, Prince, on another heir!"
Wang Qingci was a Martial Artist, and a high-quality one at that, which made her very unlikely to become pregnant. In the entire North Prince Mansion, only Chu Yuqin was an exception, succeeding on her first attempt.
Besides Chu Yuqin, Lu Chen, Wang Qingci, and even Yelv Nanyan, these high-quality warriors did not know how many times they had been with him without conceiving. Now that Wang Qingci, the Half-step Grandmaster, was pregnant with Lu Chen's child, it was indeed a cause for celebration.
With one child on the way, there would likely be a second and a third; with Wang Qingci pregnant, it should be possible for Lu Chen's other women too.
At this point, Lu Chen put down his chopsticks and reminded, "By the way, she does not yet know that she is carrying my child. You should keep it to yourself for now."
Hearing this, Mu Zixuan asked with a puzzled look, "Why is that?"
