Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 551 : 334: It’s Time to Meet Him_1

Lu Chen left Chu Yuqin's room with a frown, looking extremely grave.

For some reason, he still felt as if a pair of eyes were watching him, Lu Chen was unsure if this was merely his own illusion.

This sensation had persisted for several days now, regardless of his actions, the feeling remained, even while bathing or at the privy, he sensed someone's gaze upon him.

Lu Chen couldn't help but wonder, could that woman be a pervert, watching even as he bathed and attended to nature's call?

At this moment, Lu Chen truly couldn't ascertain if that woman was indeed surveilling him; he'd inquired with Lin Wanyun, and Lin Wanyun said that the Mysterious Moon Palace had no new messages coming to the North Country.

In his heart, Lu Chen wondered, could he have guessed wrong, and the person observing him wasn't that woman but someone else?

Or was this all a figment of his imagination, from the start there wasn't any powerful being that had come to the North Country, and the pressure emanating from Xuanyuan Chaoge was due to a new understanding that led to the restrictions of heaven and earth?

Honestly, having been repressed for so many days, playing the role of a well-behaved man, Lu Chen felt he was nearly bursting.

Used to lavish meals, now abstaining for so many days, eating vegetarian dishes while delectable meats were placed before him, it was unbearable.

This couldn't go on any longer.

At that moment, Lu Chen thought, forget it, he should just endure a bit more, perhaps that woman had truly arrived, having held on for so many days, a few more wouldn't matter.

With this thought, Lu Chen once again returned to the Wind Cloud Court for breakfast and after finishing his meal, he headed to his study to attend to state affairs once more.

After Lu Chen went to the study, his wives and concubines gathered at the pavilion in the Wind Cloud Court.

At this moment, all the women's gazes turned towards Chu Yuqin.

Mu Zixuan initiated the conversation, "Chu, have you found out anything?"

Chu Yuqin sighed softly, then responded, "Chen'er said that Great Wu will launch a military campaign against the North Country in two months. He's under a lot of pressure lately and not in the mood for other matters."

Upon hearing this, the women were taken aback.

So a significant event was about to take place in the North Country, no wonder Lu Chen had been acting like a different person lately.

Great Wu's impending attack on the North Country was indeed a matter of great concern, and it was uncertain whether the North Country would be able to withstand it this time.

With this thought, worry colored the faces of the women.

At this point, Chu Yuqin, with a smile on her face, reassured the women, "You don't need to worry too much. If Chen'er is under too much pressure and needs to vent, and truly can't hold back anymore, he will surely turn to you all. He won't keep it all in."

"As for Great Wu's attack on the North Country, I believe the North Country's army can withstand the invaders. The North Country now is not the North City of a few years ago."

After hearing these words from Chu Yuqin, the women felt somewhat better. Indeed, the military strength of the North Country was now so formidable. Although Great Wu was a dynasty and had to guard against other dynasties around it, hence they can't possibly direct all their forces to attack the North Country. It was highly likely the North Country would withstand the siege.

At this very moment, atop a certain rooftop, a woman looked on emotionlessly at the events unfolding within the pavilion of the Wind Cloud Court.

Upon witnessing Lu Chen's wives and concubines living together harmoniously, the woman murmured to herself, "Being able to maintain such harmony in the Harem, the North Prince indeed has some skills, it's time to meet him."

She did not plan to stay in North Country for too long; she was simply there to ascertain what kind of man the North Prince was. After observing him for a few days, she formed a general impression of the North Prince and decided it was time to return.

As evening approached,

Dongfang Longyue visited Lu Chen's study, where she asked him about some issues concerning newspapers. Lu Chen explained everything to her meticulously and in detail.

In front of Lu Chen, Dongfang Longyue stood very close to him. After restraining himself for these past few days, he was finding it increasingly difficult to control himself. Right now, he really wanted to press Dongfang Longyue against the desk and engage in some joyful activities with her, but he couldn't.

At that moment, Lu Chen vaguely sensed that feeling of being watched growing stronger, as if the person who had been monitoring him all this time was right in the room, yet he could not detect the person's presence.

After explaining everything to Dongfang Longyue, Lu Chen took a deep breath, trying his best to control his restless emotions. Dongfang Longyue also noticed the change in Lu Chen's demeanor.

Being a member of the North Prince Mansion, she had heard about Lu Chen's recent strangeness. This time, Dongfang Longyue tentatively asked, "Prince, if you wish, I can..."

At this point, Dongfang Longyue's face grew hot with embarrassment. Thinking that she was one of Lu Chen's women, it was natural for her to serve Lu Chen. However, to take the initiative to suggest such things was still difficult for her. Discover what's next on novelbuddy

Seeing Dongfang Longyue's blush, Lu Chen immediately understood what she meant and quickly coughed, smiling as he said, "No need, if you don't have anything else, you may leave first. I still have some matters to attend to."

Seeing that Lu Chen had politely refused, Dongfang Longyue did not insist any further. She then said, "This concubine understands, I will take my leave."

As soon as these words were spoken, Dongfang Longyue turned and left the study.

After Dongfang Longyue had left the study, Lu Chen sighed. When would this kind of life come to an end? It was truly unbearable.

The person who had been observing him in secret for so many days should come out by now. Even if that person was not Chen Wanrong's master but someone else, after observing him for so many days, they should reveal themselves and their intentions.

Lu Chen massaged his temples.

Forget it, it's better not to think too much. He would hold out for another five days. If the person hiding in the shadows still did not appear, he would stop pretending and go back to doing whatever he needed to do.

With this in mind, Lu Chen stood up, ready to return to Wind Cloud Court for dinner. But just as he reached the door, he suddenly felt an intense bone-chilling coldness engulf him.

It was then that Xuanyuan Chaoge's voice suddenly appeared in the study, "Your Highness, be careful!!!"

At that moment, Lu Chen whirled around, only to see Xuanyuan Chaoge already standing in front of him. As a Celestial, he had sensed a powerful presence in the Prince's Mansion and immediately rushed to the study.

Right now, seated on the chair where Lu Chen had just been, was a woman dressed in white. The woman was breathtakingly beautiful, with a cold air about her, and an Immortal Aura lingering around her.

Lu Chen only took one glance at the woman and felt as though he had fallen into an eternal icy cavern, his body seemingly frozen in place. Yet, within this cavern of millennia-old ice, appeared to be a field of white snow lotuses, extraordinarily beautiful.

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment.

He had long heard from Lin Wanyun that Chen Wanrong's master was a true fairy, extremely beautiful, but he had not expected this woman to be so stunning.

Her silver-white hair cascaded down to her waist, secured at the head with a jade hairpin in a bun, and her white gown clung tightly to her body, her skin as pure as snow.
