Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife

After all, Wu Junwan had just quelled the turmoil in the southeast and was currently in the limelight. If she were to destabilize Great Sum as well, such a great accomplishment falling into Wu Junwan\'s lap, she might just soar to the heavens.

Seeing Chai Jiliang so confident, Wu Junwan lazily said, "Then it\'s all up to Mr. Chai."

Chai Jiliang then said, "If Your Highness has no other matters, your servant will take his leave first."

Wu Junwan responded, "Very well, Mr. Chai. Go and attend to your own affairs."

Northwestern lands.

Ruins of the Barbarian Tribe royal court.

A woman dressed in light gauze, shimmering in gold, stood atop the ancient city wall, gazing into the distance. Her figure was enchanting, her long jade legs faintly visible beneath the gauze and revealing her soft, fair waist that one could encircle with a hand. Unfortunately, her face was covered with a red veil, obscuring her unparalleled beauty.

If Lu Chen were here, he would definitely feel that this woman exuded an exotic charm.

At that moment, a robust man dressed in animal fur clothes approached the woman and handed her a fur scroll, "Goddess, this is the intelligence we have just acquired!"

The woman took the scroll from the man, unrolled it, glanced at its contents, and her brows instantly furrowed.

"Foolish creature, to act on your own without heeding my commands."

Her voice was cold yet carried a hint of allure. Although she sounded angry, her voice was strangely comforting to those who heard it.

The robust man then said, "The other tribes have also received news of the Tianqi King\'s death. They believe the Tianqi King was an important ally of ours, and we must avenge this grievance. If we do not, wouldn\'t it look like we are letting those two-legged sheep belittle us?"

The woman replied indifferently, "They don\'t even know how the Tianqi King was defeated, and they\'re rushing to their deaths so quickly. With brains like theirs, the Barbarian Tribe is bound to perish."

Hearing this, the man scratched the back of his head and then said, "Goddess, I initially thought we should seek revenge too. After all, the Tianqi King was a branch of our royal lineage, and his death at the hands of the Great Sum people is a disgrace for our Barbarian Tribe royal court."

The woman spoke lightly, "You still know of the royal court? The royal court has long been fractured. Which tribe doesn\'t have its own royal court now?"

Hearing the woman\'s words, the Barbarian Tribe\'s robust man said nothing more.

The woman continued, "First, send someone to infiltrate Great Jue, and then through Great Jue go to the North Country. Gather information on how the Tianqi King was defeated."

"He was, after all, a Grandmaster, and he also had an army of four hundred thousand. He shouldn\'t have been defeated so thoroughly."

The Barbarian Tribe\'s robust man said, "I understand. I will find a way to send someone to infiltrate Great Jue."

As the sound of his voice faded, the Barbarian Tribe\'s robust man turned and left.

The woman, looking at the red sunset in the sky and the geese flying in a "human" formation, murmured to herself, "When can I return to my homeland..."

After inspecting Great Yu City and arranging the construction of the steam engine and railway, Lu Chen returned to Yan County with Xuanyuan Yunqi.

He had just returned to Yan County and hadn\'t even had the chance to take a bath when a maid came looking for him, "Prince, Lady Wang is looking for you."

Hearing this, Lu Chen was momentarily stunned. He had just arrived at the Prince\'s Mansion, and that bitch was already seeking him out? Did she really want to be dealt with that badly?

Lu Chen inquired, "Where is she now?"

The maid replied, "The study."

Lu Chen said indifferently, "Tell her to wait for me in her room. I need to take a bath first."

"Yes, my Prince."

The maid then turned and left.

Subsequently, Lu Chen returned to the main hall and instructed Mu Zixuan to prepare hot water. He then enjoyed a comfortable hot bath in the bathing pool.

After finishing his bath, Lu Chen went to find Wang Qingci.

The moment he pushed the door and entered the room, he found Wang Qingci half-reclining on the bed in a vulnerable state. Then Wang Qingci said in a coquettish tone, "Prince, I\'ve been ill recently. Could you please help me heal?"

Hearing Wang Qingci\'s provocative tone, Lu Chen did not indulge her. He entered the room, waved his hand, pressed her down on the bed, and treated her well.

Thanks to Lu Chen\'s treatment, Wang Qingci soon recovered completely, and her body was as good as new.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Lu Chen hugged Wang Qingci\'s delicate body and asked, "Now, tell me, what do you need?"

"I highly doubt you were so eager to come back to see me just for this." story by m|v_l,e,m,p,y,r

Although Lu Chen knew that bitch Wang Qingci needed to be dealt with by him regularly to be comfortable, she most likely brought information each time she came to him. She wouldn\'t come to him without any intelligence.

In Wang Qingci\'s view, if she didn\'t have any intelligence to offer, she wasn\'t worthy of sharing his bed, so she always had to bring back some intelligence.

Underneath Lu Chen, Wang Qingci weakly extended her hand, searched beneath the pillow, and withdrew an envelope. Then, lifting her hand, she handed it over to Lu Chen behind her.
