Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 471 - 281: Lu Chen’s Mother and Grandmother_1

Great Sum, Capital city.

After nightfall, the streets of the capital city had lost the bustle of the daytime.

Because it was a special period, the capital city had implemented a curfew policy. If it had been before, the nightlife in the Great Sum's capital city would have still been quite rich.

Just when everyone was getting ready to sleep, suddenly a golden light burst forth from the Imperial Palace, piercing straight into the sky.

At this moment inside the Imperial Palace, a man dressed in white undergarments excitedly exclaimed, "So that's how it is, that's how it is!!!"

Seeing a golden light from the direction of the Imperial Palace shooting into the sky and illuminating the entire capital city, the officials in the capital instantly thought of the incident that had occurred in the North Country not long ago.

Instantly, the hearts of the officials in the capital filled with immense anxiety.

Although the golden light signified that the royal family might now have a Celestial of the Heavenly Human Realm among them, it also meant that the Sum Emperor would continue to strengthen his control over the court.

It must be known that the Sum Emperor had not yet finished clearing out the Ancient Families within the Great Sum's territory, and the officials from the Ancient Families still in the capital felt disaster looming over them.

The family of the South was such a huge interest group, and the Sum Emperor had taken action against them as he pleased. Now, the remaining Ancient Families were like scattered sand; if another Celestial emerged from the royal family, what could they use to contest the Sum Emperor?

...

North Country, North Prince Mansion.

Inside the room, the candlelight flickered.

Chu Yuqin, standing to the side, watched the scene in front of her, slightly entranced, her cheeks somewhat flushed. Although she felt that such things were normal, to witness Lu Chen assault Chu Qingli still shocked her.

Mu Zixuan had actually mentioned to her before to convince Lu Chen to increase the number of women attending the Prince in his chamber during the night.

The reason Mu Zixuan asked Chu Yuqin to speak to Lu Chen was mainly due to Chu Yuqin's special status; she was the only person with a senior identity. If she were to speak to Lu Chen, he would probably listen to her advice.

However, Chu Yuqin had always felt too embarrassed to speak to Lu Chen about it; she had not yet mentioned it to Lu Chen when he directly pulled Chu Qingli into doing bad things in his own room.

To avoid disturbing Lu Chen, Chu Yuqin then stood up and sat down on a stool by the bed.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Lu Chen finally raised his upper body and then asked, "Madam Chu, how much do you understand about my mother?"

Initially, Chu Qingli saw Lu Chen raise his upper body and was ready to continue struggling, but when she heard Lu Chen asking her sister about serious matters, she paused for a moment then let Lu Chen have his way with her.

Chu Yuqin felt odd watching Lu Chen doing bad things while asking about Chu Yue; nevertheless, she replied, "I have been following your mother since I was young; perhaps there is no one in this world who understands your mother better than I do."

Lu Chen suppressed Chu Qingli while saying, "Madam Chu, do you know how my mother died?"

Upon hearing this question, Chu Yuqin was startled; she had not expected Lu Chen to inquire about the cause of Chu Yue's death.

After a moment of silence, Chu Yuqin said, "Your mother's death was greatly related to your father the Emperor. At that time, he forced your mother to go to the Mysterious Moon Palace to borrow the Divine Artifact. On her way back, she was surrounded and attacked by assassins.

With her last breath, your mother managed to eliminate all those assassins, but by the time she returned to the Imperial Palace, she was beyond help."

"Perhaps your mother had sensed that she would encounter danger when she went to the Mysterious Moon Palace, which is why she didn't take me with her that time."

Hearing this, Lu Chen took a deep breath and continued to ask, "Did my mother bring back that Mysterious Moon Palace Divine Artifact to the capital city?"

Chu Yuqin answered, "No."

Lu Chen continued, "How did the Sacred Artifact from the Mysterious Moon Palace end up in my father the Emperor's hands?"

Chu Yuqin replied, "On her way back to the capital city, your mother discovered that someone wanted to snatch the Sacred Artifact, so she hid it. After your mother's death, the Sum Emperor's people found that Sacred Artifact."

After hearing Chu Yuqin's words, Lu Chen took another deep breath and then suddenly turned fierce. After a moment, he asked again, "Madam Chu, I have one last question; since you were always by my mother's side, you should know the answer to this next question."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Chu Yuqin glanced at him as he was assaulting Chu Qingli. She vaguely felt that Lu Chen's mood seemed somewhat off.

Chu Yuqin then said, "Ask away, I will tell you everything I know."

Lu Chen directly asked, "Am I the biological child of the Sum Emperor?"

Upon hearing this question, Chu Yuqin froze.

Seeing that Chu Yuqin did not answer immediately, Lu Chen knew she must know something about this.

At this moment, Lu Chen flipped Chu Qingli over and pressed down on her again, then said, "Madam Chu, just tell me the truth; I can accept whatever the result is."

Chu Yuqin sighed and said, "Your mother once warned me, under no circumstances was I to reveal your origins to you."

"However, your mother did so only to ensure that you could live your life in peace, which is why she did not want you to know."

"Now that you have found your immortal fate and are no longer a commoner, I think it shouldn't matter if I tell you now."
