Chapter 611: Chapter 359 The Prince Isn't Pretending At All_1

Wu Ming returned to the Great Wu embassy where he stayed and flew into a violent rage, crazily smashing things around.

"Idiots! A bunch of idiots!!!"

"Don't they know I'm still in North Country? Who gave them the courage to launch a sneak attack on North Country soldiers at this time!!!"

"Are they trying to get me killed!!!"

As a prince, he was still in another nation's territory, and yet the armies of his own dynasty had initiated an attack on that country. If this angered North Country, he might just be killed outright by them.

Wu Ming now seriously suspected that there were people within the Great Wu dynasty who wanted him dead, so they deliberately let those twenty thousand heavy cavalry attack North Country's military camp, thereby infuriating the North Prince, and thus achieving their purpose of killing with a borrowed knife.

...

After the first round of negotiations ended, Lu Chen returned to the inner court of the Prince's Mansion. He knew that Wu Ming must have already learned about the attack by Great Wu's heavy cavalry on North Country's military camp, which was why he was so eager to leave the Hall of Political Affairs earlier.

In the matter of negotiations, North Country was the least in a hurry; talking for a few months was not a problem. It all depended on whether Great Wu could withstand the pressure of North Country's army.

The longer the negotiations dragged on, the more disadvantageous it was for Great Wu. As the situation became increasingly unfavorable for Great Wu, North Country would surely gradually increase its demands.

On this sunny day, after Lu Chen returned to the inner court, he joined his wives and concubines for tea and chat. At this moment, Lu Chen noticed Yelv Nanyan holding a needle and thread, sewing something together.

Lu Chen asked curiously, "Nanyan, are you sewing clothes?"

The clothes of the Prince's Mansion were all made by a dedicated tailor, so there was no need for the people of the Prince's Mansion to sew themselves. Moreover, North Prince Mansion had already established a clothing factory, which could provide whatever clothes were needed.

Upon hearing Lu Chen's question, Yelv Nanyan put down her needlework and then replied, "Prince, this concubine thought of making one or two garments for the children while I do not yet have any of my own."

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled slightly and said, "If you want any clothes, just tell the clothing factory. There's no need for you to sew them by hand."

Yelv Nanyan replied, "This concubine knows, but I am idle nonetheless."

Yelv Nanyan, who originally managed the treasury, had gradually transferred her power to the officials arranged by Lu Chen, leaving her with little to do. So, she thought that since she would eventually bear children for Lu Chen, why not use this idle time to hand-make a few sets of clothes for the children.

Although she had not yet conceived Lu Chen's child, she believed that with enough persistence, she would eventually become pregnant with his child, especially since Chu Yuqin and Wang Qingci, the two martial artists, already had Lu Chen's children.

At that moment, Chu Yuqin, not far away, said, "Chen'er, the clothes we sew ourselves can't be compared with those from the clothing factory. Moreover, it's a mother's sentiment."

Chu Yuqin, as a mother, had experienced the sense of achievement that comes with sewing clothes for her child and knew that this feeling was something Lu Chen, as a man, could not understand. Your journey continues at M V L

Mu Zixuan smiled gently from the side and then said, "Prince, Sister Nanyan has even prepared clothes for the children. You should try a bit harder."

Hearing this, a blush suddenly appeared on Yelv Nanyan's face.

Seeing the beautiful woman blush, Lu Chen laughed and said, "Nanyan, I will make an effort to visit your room more often in the coming days."

Yelv Nanyan, not knowing what to say, could only reply, "Yes, Prince."

Just as everyone was joking, at this time a maid entered the inner court saying, "Prince, Miss Murong requests an audience."

As the maid's voice fell, even before Lu Chen could speak, Mu Zixuan said to him, "Prince, Miss Murong's courtyard has long been prepared. The maids have also been selected, but no one has yet moved in."

"Why don't you talk to her, and ask her to move into the North Prince Mansion from now on."

Lu Chen replied, "Alright, I'll talk to her about this matter later."

"Take your time chatting, I'll be back shortly."

Having said this, Lu Chen stood and went directly to the study.

As Lu Chen entered the courtyard of the study, he saw that ice-cold stunning woman, Murong Xue'er, silently standing at the entrance of the study, like a snow lotus on a snowy mountain. Seeing Murong Xue'er's frosty appearance, Lu Chen instantly became intrigued.

As he walked towards the entrance of the study, he said, "Xue'er, you've become more and more proactive lately."

Hearing Lu Chen's voice, Murong Xue'er slightly turned her head to look at him, and her heart trembled a little when she saw Lu Chen, this tall, handsome man.

For some reason, she felt that having not seen him for a few days, Lu Chen seemed to have become more handsome, and the masculine aura about him had also grown stronger.

In Murong Xue'er's mind, suddenly the image of her first meeting with Lu Chen emerged. Although he already possessed the demeanor of a leader back then, he still had a youthful air, but the Lu Chen of today exuded the mature charisma of a grown man, no longer carrying that youthful air.

This made Lu Chen all the more charming. Murong Xue'er felt that she was becoming meaner by the day; just a few days without seeing Lu Chen, and upon seeing him again, her body began to stir with restlessness.

She now doubted whether she could ever leave this bad man.

Murong Xue'er stated directly, "His Majesty has sent a Pigeon Letter to me, urging me to hasten and become your woman, preferably before the arrival of Princess Wu from Great Wu."

As Murong Xue'er's words ended, Lu Chen came in front of her. One of his large hands wrapped around her soft waist, pulling her toward the inside of the study while walking and saying, "It seems your Emperor is afraid of what I might do to the Princess from Great Wu, huh?"

"I've always been quite curious about the relation between the Yue Emperor and Wu Junwan. Come in and tell me exactly what sort of relationship they have."

Upon hearing this question from Lu Chen, Murong Xue'er did not directly answer.

After Lu Chen, with Murong Xue'er's waist in his arms, entered the study, a wave of his hand closed all the doors and windows on their own.

In an instant, the study took on an amorous atmosphere.

Without any hesitation, Lu Chen wrapped his arms around Murong Xue'er's slender waist, and before she could say a word, he bent down and claimed her red lips with his.

Lu Chen was already well accustomed to such things, and Murong Xue'er did not struggle. She lifted her jade arms and wrapped them around Lu Chen's neck, cooperating with him as they kissed for a moment.

Murong Xue'er had lost her former shyness. She had wholeheartedly accepted everything; after all, she had become Lu Chen's woman, and to her, there was no difference between doing such things once or countless times.

After kissing for a while, Lu Chen turned Murong Xue'er around, making her face away from him. Then he reached his arms under her armpits to hug her slender waist from behind, his chest pressing against her jade back, and gently pushed her toward the study's resting room.

Murong Xue'er then said coldly, "Prince, you're hardly being discreet at all."

Previously whenever she came to the Prince's Mansion, Lu Chen would beat around the bush and chat about this and that before taking her to bed.

This time, she came and Lu Chen started with his hands and mouth right away, without any prelude whatsoever.
