Prince’s Mansion, Spring Sound Court.
Snowflakes flutter down in the courtyard, creating a tranquil atmosphere.
Yelv Nanyan sat in the room, with a steaming pot of tea in front of her. She sipped the tea and listened to noises coming from the next courtyard.
“Prince, spare me…”
“Prince, your servant knows she was wrong…”
“Prince… darling… dear brother…”
At this moment, Xiao Wenyao whispered, “Nanyan, the woman next door is also one of the Prince’s women, right?”
Yelv Nanyan took a gentle sip of her tea and replied, “Everyone living in the inner court belongs to him.”
Xiao Wenyao said, “Oh.”
After thinking for a while, Xiao Wenyao continued, “But I rarely see the Prince visit next door.”
Yelv Nanyan explained, “She’s different from us. She has responsibilities outside and is not often in the Prince’s Mansion.”
Hearing this, Xiao Wenyao sighed and then said, “I wish I had some responsibilities, too. It’s so boring being in the Prince’s Mansion every day.”
Yelv Nanyan smiled slightly and then said, “Wait until the Prince goes to your room later, then you won’t be bored.”
Hearing this, Xiao Wenyao’s body trembled, and she blushed as she said, “Nanyan, what are you talking about? The Prince is still doing bad things next door, how could he possibly come to find me?”
Xiao Wenyao was still somewhat hopeful, after all, it had been more than two months since she last played the horse-riding game with Lu Chen.
However, she also knew that Lu Chen had many women, and it was not certain when he would come to her. Even if Lu Chen did come to Spring Sound Court, he would likely visit Yelv Nanyan first.
Once Lu Chen entered Yelv Nanyan’s room, there was not a night when he would definitely not leave. It was always like this, and Xiao Wenyao had already discerned the pattern.
Lu Chen seemed to enjoy attacking Yelv Nanyan’s weaknesses. Xiao Wenyao was curious why Lu Chen always managed to stay so long in Yelv Nanyan’s room. Was it because Yelv Nanyan was a Ninth Grade Martial Artist, and Lu Chen needed more time to suppress her to make her submit?
Seeing Xiao Wenyao’s blushing face, Yelv Nanyan smiled again and then said, “Yaoyao, bear the Prince a chubby little son early, and maybe in the future, you’ll be able to go out whenever you want.”
Hearing this, Xiao Wenyao asked, “Really?”
Yelv Nanyan said softly, “The people of Great Sum value offspring. If you bear the Prince an heir, your status in the North Prince Mansion will be elevated, and naturally, you’ll be able to go out at will.”
Xiao Wenyao said, “But I heard it’s very difficult for Martial Artists to get pregnant, it’s not so easy to have children.”
Yelv Nanyan said with a smile, “That’s easy, just take good care of the Prince and let him visit you a few more times. Perhaps, one lucky day, you’ll find yourself with child.”
Hearing this, Xiao Wenyao pouted. She really didn’t want Lu Chen running to her place often.
Though being pressed by Lu Chen wasn’t uncomfortable for her, if Lu Chen frequented her place, she certainly couldn’t endure it.
It wasn’t just her; no woman in the entire inner court of the Prince’s Mansion could withstand Lu Chen seeking their company too often.
She felt conflicted about Lu Chen. She was afraid that he wouldn’t come to her, yet also feared that he would come every day.
In her heart, the best scenario was for Lu Chen to visit her once every seven or eight days.
While Xiao Wenyao was lost in thought, the sounds from next door grew louder. Yelv Nanyan laughed and said, “It seems the Prince is quite fiery today, isn’t he?”
Hearing Yelv Nanyan’s words, Xiao Wenyao couldn’t help but clench her legs together, thinking that she must behave herself in front of Lu Chen in the future, otherwise, she might end up being dealt with by the Prince like the woman next door.
Time passed, unknowingly.
The snow in the sky grew thicker, and the sounds within the inner court of the Prince’s Mansion were gradually muffled by the blowing wind and snow.
As time went by, only the whistling sound of the wind and snow remained.
Meanwhile.
In a certain room.
Wang Qingci lay sprawled across the bed, her hair disheveled, looking despondent.
At this time, Lu Chen was looking through the intelligence about Great Jue that Wang Qingci had given him.
The snow fluttered in through the window, but the room had been transformed into a warm chamber, free from any chill.
Had the room not been warmed, there wouldn’t have been an issue; Lu Chen could also use manpower to make the room warm, and then Wang Qingci would be sweating all over her body.
Lu Chen glanced at the glaring white expanse beside him and said with a smile, “Mr. Wang, weren’t you here to report intelligence to me? Why are you lying still?”
“You have a serious work attitude problem. You dare to be so lazy before this Prince.”
“It seems I need to properly discipline you.”
Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Wang Qingci slightly rolled over and, lying on her side, gazed mournfully into his eyes.
“Prince, you really like to accuse others first. It’s clearly you who won’t let your servant report properly,” she said.
“Next time you do this, I’ll have someone else deliver the intelligence and never return to the Prince’s Mansion again.”
Lu Chen said indifferently, “Oh? As this Prince’s female slave, you dare not come back in person to report to me?”
“Are you thinking of rebelling?”
At Lu Chen’s words, Wang Qingci uttered somberly, “Prince, you are so fierce; how could your servant dare to rebel?”
Seeing Wang Qingci’s mournful expression, Lu Chen raised his hand and smacked her buttocks before saying, “Mr. Wang, remember, serving me is also part of your job.”
