Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife

While Wu Junwan was mentally sifting through reasons that could lead to her skill being sealed whenever she came into contact with Lu Chen, Lu Chen spoke teasingly, "Is Her Majesty the Empress angry? Blame me, blame me for being too busy these past few days, not coming to see you every day, making you feel lonely and neglected."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Wu Junwan merely huffed coldly and said nothing more.

These past days in the North Prince Mansion, she indeed felt lonely and isolated. After all, none of the people she knew were around her; the courtyard was filled with unfamiliar maids, and even outside there were some female guards. This made her feel caged and extremely uncomfortable.

Lu Chen continued, "If Your Majesty finds it too dull to stay in the courtyard all the time, you can also go out for a walk."

Hearing that, Wu Junwan said, "Does the Prince not fear that this palace might do something to harm the North Country?"

Lu Chen said with a smile, "If you want to cause trouble, you may as well do so."

Wu Junwan said, "Do you think this palace poses no threat to you, that I cannot stir any waves?"

Lu Chen replied, "You can think of it that way."

Hearing Lu Chen's response, Wu Junwan's eyebrows knitted slightly; this young man really did not take her seriously at all.

"Someday you'll pay for your arrogance."

Wu Junwan did not wish to say more to Lu Chen. Since the young man had said she could take a walk, she would spend her days at the Princess Mansion arranged by Lu Chen, staying with her entourage, and then return in the evening.

He wasn't afraid of her causing chaos in the North Country, was he? He would regret it eventually.

Just as Wu Junwan was contemplating what she would do after leaving the North Prince Mansion, her body was suddenly lifted by Lu Chen. Before she could struggle, she was seated on Lu Chen's lap.

Lu Chen wrapped his arms around her soft waist from behind, his head resting on her fragrant shoulder, inhaling the scent of her hair as if utterly enchanted.

Wu Junwan had intended to struggle, but remembering that her skill was sealed, she simply gave up, allowing this lecher to sniff around her as he pleased.

After a while, Lu Chen said, "If you feel lonely, I'll arrange someone to stay with you in a few days. I believe you two will have much in common."

Wu Junwan asked, "Who is it?"

Lu Chen answered with a smile, "You'll find out in a few days."

Wu Junwan spoke expressionlessly, "It seems the Prince is still worried this palace might do something detrimental to the North Country and plans to have someone monitor me."

Without going into too much detail, Lu Chen simply said, "The person I'm arranging for you is not from the North Country."

Wu Junwan was taken aback.

Not from the North Country?

She fell into thought, wondering what Lu Chen was planning next.

With Wu Junwan's soft body in his arms, Lu Chen, a vigorous young man, momentarily had thoughts, with a beauty in his embrace. How could he lack intentions?

Wu Junwan soon sensed Lu Chen's change, and she began to twist her body, trying to stand up, but Lu Chen's arms held her waist tightly, no matter how she struggled she couldn't rise.

The more Wu Junwan writhed, the more excited Lu Chen became. However, before he could take the next step, a female guard entered the courtyard and said, "Prince, Commander Liang is looking for you."

Lu Chen felt helpless. There were too many things during the day, and he couldn't even take a moment of rest.

"Tell him to wait for me in the study room."

With that, Lu Chen whispered into Wu Junwan's ear, "Your Majesty, wait for me tonight, let me take good care of you."

As his voice trailed off, Lu Chen released Wu Junwan and stood up.

At this moment, a slight blush appeared on Wu Junwan's cheeks. In just those few moments, her heart had been stirred by the young man, even developing feelings for him, making her whole body restless.

Indeed, the charms of a man are like poison!

No wonder their master at the Misty Immortal Sect had warned them not to easily indulge in the company of men, or else they might become helplessly smitten.

Wu Junwan now felt she was beginning to lose control. Just a casual provocation from this young man was enough to make her feel uncomfortable, longing to engage in intimate pleasures with him.

No! She must restrain herself!

...

In the study room of the North Prince Mansion.

After Lu Chen arrived at the study, Liang Zong handed over the intelligence report to him.

"Prince, the Crown Prince has secretly sent an envoy to the North Country."

Hearing this, Lu Chen's hand, which was opening an envelope, paused. Looking up at Liang Zong, he asked, "What does he send an envoy to the North Country for?"

Although the North Country was nominally a feudal state of Great Xia, it was only in name. The court of Great Xia no longer had any real control over the North Country.

Speaking of the North Country, the central government couldn't even mobilize its own troops at the moment. Lu Chen didn't understand what Lu Yi could accomplish by sending envoys to the North Country at this time.

Liang Zong replied, "It is said to be an attempt to win you over."

Lu Chen thought for a moment and did not pursue further. He then opened the letter in his hand and began to read it carefully.

After reviewing the Brocade Guard's intelligence, Lu Chen instantly understood the situation.

Currently, in Great Xia, all Princes with the power to contend for the throne had dealings of one kind or another with certain Seigniors. However, the only solid support Lu Yi had was from the Scholar Officials and conservative officials in the court. With his father, the Emperor, obstructing him in the dark, Lu Yi currently couldn't mobilize the court's troops.

Lu Yi felt his position as Crown Prince was unstable and was seeking external support.

After reading the intelligence report, Lu Chen asked, "When can the Crown Prince's envoy arrive in the North Country?"

Liang Zong replied, "They can reach Yan County in three days. Our Brocade Guard spy who delivered the message left the Capital city together with the Crown Prince's envoy. They are not slow in their travel."
