Chapter 395: Chapter 255 You Will Regret It_3
Lu Chen chuckled, “Who was it that used to come to my study every day to engage in such filthy acts?”
Lin Wanyun snorted coldly, then said, “I don’t want to talk about this with you. What I want to know is, do you plan on having the Palace Master accompany you to the north?”
Lu Chen nodded and said, “That’s indeed my intention.”
Lin Wanyun continued to ask, “Did the Palace Master agree?”
Lu Chen replied, “She agreed.”
Lin Wanyun reminded him, “If the Palace Master appears on the battlefield, it’s very likely that the Elders of Mysterious Moon Palace will find out and they might make her return. Have you thought this through?”
Lin Wanyun was also aware that Lu Chen had a very powerful presence backing him, no ordinary person, but with his current level of strength, he wasn’t yet capable of contending with the entire Mysterious Moon Palace.
Although those Elders of Mysterious Moon Palace seldom or almost never interfere in secular matters, the situation would be different when it involved their Palace Master.
The Palace Master represented the face of Mysterious Moon Palace; if those Elders saw Chen Wanrong in danger, they would likely order her to return immediately.
Lu Chen said, “I have already thought this through. After this war is over, if she wants to return to Mysterious Moon Palace, then she will be free to go.”
Seeing that Lu Chen was actually willing to let Chen Wanrong leave the North Country, Lin Wanyun was somewhat incredulous. Lu Chen then gazed at the dignified and plump Lin Wanyun and said with a smile, “She can leave, but you cannot.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanyun snapped back to reality, her face changing color as she said coldly, “I didn’t say I wanted to leave.”
Having said that, Lin Wanyun headed straight for Chen Wanrong’s room.
Lu Chen didn’t stay any longer at Yunrong Courtyard.
He returned to the main hall for breakfast. As soon as he reached the main hall, Mu Zixuan had the maids serve Lu Chen’s breakfast in front of him.
Lu Chen glanced at the maids and then said, “Go call Madam Dazhou and Madam Xiaozhou. The Prince has something to discuss with them.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Mu Zixuan, cradling a child in her arms, asked, “Your Highness, is it about you leading the troops northward that you want to talk about?”
The news of Lu Chen leading troops northward had already spread throughout Yan County, naturally reaching Mu Zixuan’s ears.
Lu Chen said with a smile, “Indeed, I am going to lead troops northward. However, that’s not what I want to discuss. I have a gift for the three of you.”
Hearing about a gift, Mu Zixuan was taken aback, then glanced at Lu Chen’s body, her gaze uncontrollably falling to the area around Lu Chen’s crotch, her cheeks turning a slight red as she asked, “The gift you’re talking about… it isn’t going to be a child, is it?”
Lu Chen often said he was going to give them gifts during their intimate moments, and everyone understood what those ‘gifts’ from Lu Chen ended up being. It was no wonder Mu Zixuan’s thoughts wandered; after all, Lu Chen was a bad man who often said such things in bed.
Hearing Mu Zixuan’s words, Lu Chen said speechlessly, “My love, what are you thinking about? All that fills your head are such filthy thoughts. If I say it’s a gift, then it must certainly be a real gift.”
Realizing that her mind had gone astray, Mu Zixuan’s face grew even redder, but she retorted without showing weakness, “That’s Your Highness’s fault. Who made you always say in bed that you were going to be a giver of children and gifts to your concubine?”
Lu Chen smiled and then said, “Alright, alright, my fault.”
Although Lu Chen couldn’t easily admit his faults outside, within his inner court it was different. In front of his women, he was a man who actively admitted his errors.
Soon, Zhou Youyou and Zhou Xiaoxiao came to the main hall. Lu Chen said to Mu Zixuan, “My love, hand the child over to the wet nurse, and ask the maids to step out for a moment.”
Hearing this, Mu Zixuan immediately handed the child in her arms to the wet nurse, and then the wet nurse along with the maids departed to the adjacent room.
Once only the four of them remained in the grand hall, Lu Chen took out three small porcelain bottles from his system space and passed them to Mu Zixuan and the other two women.
Mu Zixuan, curious, asked, “Your Highness, what’s inside these?”
Lu Chen teased mysteriously, “Why don’t you take a guess?”
The three women took the small porcelain bottles from Lu Chen’s hands. Mu Zixuan opened a bottle, sniffed it, and found only a faint scent.
Mu Zixuan poured the bottle into her palm, tipping out the pills inside, and seeing the faintly glowing green pills in her hand, all three women were momentarily startled.
Yet they still couldn’t guess what it was.
Suddenly, Mu Zixuan had a thought, recalling that Lu Chen had been using the yin-yang harmony method to enhance her skills, so she hazarded a guess, “Your Highness, could this be an Immortal Pill for improving skills?”
Hearing this, Lu Chen burst out laughing and then said, “How could I possibly have such precious Immortal Pills right now?”
Lu Chen had once taken a pill that enhanced his skills in the Capital city, and since then, the system had not awarded him any more pills of that kind.
Lu Chen knew such pills were most certainly precious, so it would likely be only when he was more advanced, when he had more children, that the system would use them as a reward, because it seemed he didn’t need any such pills to improve his skills for the time being.
Seeing Lu Chen dismiss her guess, Mu Zixuan grew even more curious about the pills before her.
At this moment, Zhou Youyou timidly asked, “Your Highness, these pills aren’t Poison Pills, are they?”
Hearing Zhou Youyou’s inquiry, Lu Chen found himself speechless. He said, “Youyou, it seems I haven’t visited your room for a while, and now you’re out of line. How could I possibly give my own women Poison Pills? What kind of person do you think I am?”
Seeing Lu Chen upset, Zhou Youyou hastily apologized, “Your Highness, I am in the wrong. I was just talking nonsense. If Your Highness is angry, I am willing to be punished tonight.”
Lu Chen chortled, “Xiaoyouyou, I didn’t expect you to be so cunning. Seems like you actually want me to visit your room tonight, deliberately talking nonsense.”
Hearing Lu Chen’s comment, Zhou Youyou’s cheeks instantly flushed a deep red, spreading to her earlobes. She had no such intention; everyone knew how formidable Lu Chen was, and she wouldn’t dare to play tricks in such matters.
