20 Chapter 20 I Want to Have a Private Chat with You_1

Translator: 549690339

In matters of wanting children and improving his cultivation state, Lu Chen found himself somewhat helpless.

His method of cultivation relied on cultivating affection with his wives and concubines, but the system told him that only after having offspring could he obtain even more generous rewards.

But if all his wives and concubines were pregnant, who would he cultivate affection with?

An attractive woman with a favorability score of ninety was not a common cabbage; she wasn’t someone he could find whenever he wished.

Without someone to cultivate affection with, how could his cultivation state improve?

At this thought, Lu Chen became even more determined to win over Wang Qingci.

The higher the realm of a martial artist, the less likely they are to conceive, and he would use her for his cultivation in the future.

Afterward, Lu Chen said to Mu Zixuan, “My love, be sure to notify me and Madam Chu before you invite Miss Wang over.”

Wang Qingci was a Ninth Grade martial artist, and precautions were still necessary.

Mu Zixuan replied, “Your concubine understands.”

At that moment, Lu Chen glanced at Zhou Youyou, who was still resting on the pavilion bench, and said with a smile, “Youyou, rest well, I will come to find you again tonight.”

Upon hearing these words, Zhou Youyou was dumbstruck.

He’s coming again tonight?

Wuu wuu wuu, please save the child.

…

A few days later.

Hundred Flowers Tower.

Wang Qingci was reclining on a beauty’s couch, her Cloud Attire loose and disheveled.

At that moment, she muttered to herself, “It’s such a pity to kill such a handsome man.”

Since returning from the Prince’s Mansion, Wang Qingci couldn’t help but have Lu Chen’s image involuntarily surface in her mind.

She was unaware she had been affected by the Dragon and Phoenix Tea, after all, Lu Chen was indeed handsome.

Looking at the note in her hand, Wang Qingci felt somewhat regretful.

Soon, the Vice Tower Master of Blood Moon Tower was going to be in North City, and by that time, regardless of whether the North Prince Mansion’s Grandmaster was still there or not, the Misty Pavilion had to make a move to assassinate the North Prince.

Every time she thought of that handsome figure, Wang Qingci felt a twinge of reluctance.

At this moment, Wang Qingci’s mouth curled slightly upwards, and she murmured, “Young Prince, don’t blame your sister for being cruel and ruthless. Blame it on your birth into the royal family.”

Just then, a maid entered the room and spoke from behind the curtain, “Tower Master, North Prince Mansion has sent someone inviting you over, saying there is an important matter to discuss.”

Hearing this, Wang Qingci asked, “Is it the North Prince who’s looking for me?”

The maid replied, “It doesn’t seem to be the North Prince who’s looking for you, but rather the Prince’s wife.”

Wang Qingci wondered, what could Mu Zixuan want with her? Could it be because of the soap matter?

However, whether it was Mu Zixuan or the North Prince who was seeking her out, she was sure to go.

With a legitimate reason to enter the North Prince Mansion, why wouldn’t she go.

She could take the opportunity to investigate whether the Mysterious Grandmaster was still there and, incidentally, entice the North Prince.

Thinking of the North Prince’s handsome face, Wang Qingci felt a stir within her.

Wang Qingci then rose from the beauty’s couch and straightened her loose Cloud Attire. “I will go right away.”

With that, Wang Qingci headed towards the North Prince Mansion.

As the servants of the North Prince Mansion escorted Wang Qingci into the back courtyard, Chu Yuqin was on patrol and happened to see her.

Instantly, her eyebrows furrowed, and she said, “Wait a moment!”

Wang Qingci’s heart tightened upon the sound of Chu Yuqin’s voice.

Chu Yuqin, a Ninth Grade martial artist, could easily detect that she was also a martial artist. If her own martial artist’s status was exposed, it would likely arouse Chu Yuqin’s suspicion.

To avoid exposure, Wang Qingci immediately halted in her tracks.

Chu Yuqin came up to Wang Qingci and asked, “Who are you? How come I have never seen you before?”

Wang Qingci proceeded to bow and replied, “Madam Chu, I am the Oiran of the Hundred Flowers Tower, and I have come to the Prince’s Mansion at the invitation of the princess.”

Chu Yuqin scrutinized Wang Qingci, unable to help thinking that this woman was indeed enchantingly beautiful. Could it be that Zixuan was planning to have this woman serve Chen’er?

Naturally, Chu Yuqin was aware of the recent events in the inner court. Zhou Youyou had been having difficulty walking these past few days, and if they did not take a concubine for Lu Chen soon, Zhou Youyou might not be able to bear it.

However…

Chu Yuqin looked at Wang Qingci with some suspicion. She always felt that there was something extraordinary about this woman; she seemed to have felt inner strength emanating from her just now.

But now, this woman seemed no different from ordinary people.

After thinking it over, Chu Yuqin eventually said, “Alright, you may go in.”

Following that, the servants of the Prince’s Mansion continued to lead Wang Qingci toward the north courtyard.

Upon entering the north courtyard, Wang Qingci’s gaze fell on Lu Chen, who was sitting inside the pavilion.

For some reason, she now found herself unable to resist gazing at Lu Chen.

Wang Qingci entered the pavilion and immediately half knelt to greet them, saying, “I have seen the Prince, princess.”

Lu Chen smiled and said, “Stand up.”

“Thank you, Prince.”

Wang Qingci then looked at Lu Chen and asked, “May I know why the Prince has summoned me to the Mansion?”

Lu Chen replied, “It is not I who sought you out, but my beloved consort.”

“You two discuss your business; I’ll just sit here and not disturb you.”

Mu Zixuan immediately took out some small porcelain bottles from the wooden box on the stone table, “Miss Wang, could you come over here?”

Seeing the small porcelain bottles on the stone table, Wang Qingci curiously approached.

At that moment, Mu Zixuan opened one of the porcelain bottles, and a scent of flowers instantly filled Wang Qingci’s delicate nose.

Mu Zixuan then said, “Miss Wang, this is perfume made by our Prince’s Mansion. The scent lasts a very long time, and we plan to have the ladies of the Hundred Flowers Tower try it for a while to help us promote it.”

Hearing this, Wang Qingci realized that there was indeed serious business involved, and she had thought that the North Prince had called upon her for a romantic encounter.

Wang Qingci then took the porcelain bottle from Mu Zixuan’s hand, sniffed it, and found the fragrance strong but not overpowering, a natural scent.

Wang Qingci then asked, “Princess, may I inquire how long the scent of this perfume will last?”

Mu Zixuan replied, “The scent of a single drop can last about three hours.”

“Moreover, this perfume is unlike sachets; you can take it out and apply a drop on yourself at any time to keep the fragrance on your body all day, and just this one bottle can last a very long time.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Qingci’s eyes lit up. Although she had come for the North Prince, it was the perfume that attracted her more.

She hadn’t expected the North Prince Mansion to have such wonderful things.

Wang Qingci then looked toward the other porcelain bottles in the wooden box, “Princess, may I smell the fragrances of the other bottles as well?”

“Of course, all the perfumes in this wooden box are meant to be given to you for the Hundred Flowers Tower to try out.”

Wang Qingci immediately said, “Thank you for the generous gift, Princess.”

As her words fell, Wang Qingci began opening the other bottles to sniff each one, finding every fragrance unique but natural, making one want to keep smelling them.

At that moment, Lu Chen used the system to scan Wang Qingci’s personal information.

[Name: Wang Qingci]

[Status: Ninth Grade Martial Artist, foster daughter of the Wang Family in the South, Saintess of Misty Pavilion, temporary Tower Master of the Hundred Flowers Tower. She came immediately after hearing the North Prince Mansion was looking for her. Recently, she can’t help but have the North Prince’s image constantly appearing in her mind. The thought that the Vice Tower Master of Blood Moon Tower will soon come to assassinate the North Prince makes her feel very regretful.]

[Rating: 95]

[Favorability: 60 (under the continuous influence of Dragon and Phoenix Tea)]

Lu Chen paused; he hadn’t expected Blood Moon Tower would still dare to trouble him.

However, now was not the time to consider that. Seeing that Wang Qingci had a favorability of sixty, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly—it was time to reap the rewards.

With that thought, Lu Chen spoke to Wang Qingci, who was trying the perfume, “Miss Wang, I’ve heard that the Hundred Flowers Tower is the liveliest place in North City.”

Wang Qingci quickly replied, “Prince, the Hundred Flowers Tower may not be the liveliest in all of North City, but it is definitely the liveliest place in Yan County.”

Lu Chen continued, “With the Hundred Flowers Tower being so lively, you must know a lot of things that others do not. I would like to have a private word with you later, to inquire about some matters concerning North City. Would you be willing to do that?”
