Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 567 - 340: Murong Xue’er’s Complete Compromise_1

Pulled to the dining table by Mu Zixuan, Murong Xue'er felt strangely out of place, as she had never faced such a scene before.

From childhood, she had never encountered a situation where so many people sat together for a meal.

When in the Imperial Palace, she would eat alone, a simple meal, followed by work or practicing the Cultivation Techniques imparted by the Empress.

At this moment, Mu Zixuan and others fussed over Murong Xue'er, as if she truly became a member of the Prince's Mansion, as if she had become one of Lu Chen's consorts.

Murong Xue'er quickly realized something was amiss. She wasn't one of Lu Chen's consorts, so why was she chatting with them as if they were sisters?

Indeed, all of this was a plot of the North Prince, who intended to make her familiar with the people of the Prince's Mansion in advance, subtly shaping her into his woman.

Unfortunately for him, she had already seen through his little tricks; there was no way she would fall for them.

During dinner, Murong Xue'er noticed another issue: the women of the Prince's Mansion seemed to be somewhat disrespectful in front of Lu Chen.

A few women even drank wine on their own, appearing to disregard the Prince completely.

Although these women belonged to Lu Chen, he was still a Prince. They should have paid some attention to their conduct, but these women did not seem to take it seriously.

From this, it was evident how indulgent Lu Chen was with his women. Murong Xue'er, amidst this harmonious setting, faintly felt as though she had become a part of it.

Just then, Mu Zixuan's voice rang in Murong Xue'er's ears, "Prince, should Miss Murong stay over tonight? Your concubine will immediately arrange a room for her."

Upon hearing Mu Zixuan's voice, Murong Xue'er suddenly snapped back to reality, stopping herself from slipping further into fanciful thoughts.

She was here on a mission; how could she allow the environment to affect her? She couldn't be bewitched by the scene before her; everything between her and the North Prince was fake, all for the sake of completing her mission.

It was then that Lu Chen, to the side, said, "No need, Miss Murong and I have matters to discuss in the study tonight, and it may go on until dawn."

Hearing this, Wang Qingci gave Lu Chen a white look. He still enjoyed committing his misdeeds in the study room, clearly having plenty of empty rooms in the Prince's Mansion but opting to go to the study for mischief.

Mu Zixuan said with a smile, "I understand."

Then, Mu Zixuan turned to Murong Xue'er and asked, "Miss Murong, did the meal suit your taste tonight?"

Murong Xue'er replied, "Yes, the meals at the Prince's Mansion are quite delectable."

Mu Zixuan responded, "I'm relieved you liked them."

Afterward, the women chatted with Murong Xue'er about mundane matters, such as the dietary and cultural customs of the Great Jue and the North Country.

After dinner, a maid brought Lu Chen hot water. He quickly washed his face and wiped his mouth, then said to Murong Xue'er, "Miss Murong, let's head to the study now."

Hearing Lu Chen's voice, Murong Xue'er came back to her senses and promptly stood up, saying, "Alright." ƒгeewebnovёl.com

At this time, with a smile, Mu Zixuan said to Murong Xue'er, "Miss Murong, feel free to visit the Prince's Mansion whenever you have time."

Murong Xue'er responded nonchalantly, "Hmm."

Following that, Murong Xue'er followed Lu Chen to the study, and as they walked away, Wang Qingci chuckled softly and then addressed Chu Yuqin, "Madam Chu, you always said that I bothered the Prince in his study, hindering him from handling state affairs. Now that Murong Xue'er will be spending the whole night in the study with the Prince, why don't you say something about her?"

Chu Yuqin huffed, then retorted, "You are you, she is her; she doesn't come to the Prince's Mansion every day."

"Besides, it is nighttime, the time for rest; unlike you, this bitch, who runs to bother Chen'er in broad daylight."

With that, Chu Yuqin stood up and left the Wind Cloud Palace, unwilling to continue bickering with Wang Qingci, that seductive bitch.

Soon afterward, Lu Chen and Murong Xue'er arrived at the study.

Upon entering the study, Lu Chen did not rush to do anything to Murong Xue'er. Both entered the resting room, where Lu Chen first brewed a pot of Dragon and Phoenix Tea, then poured Murong Xue'er a cup, "Miss Murong, let's chat while we sip tea."

Hearing this, Murong Xue'er looked at him with a hint of bewilderment; he had always been direct in his approach before, so why had he suddenly become so well-behaved today?

Murong Xue'er didn't dwell on it, sitting down at the table and then taking a light sip from a cup of Dragon and Phoenix Tea.

Murong Xue'er inquired, "What would the Prince like to discuss?"

Smiling, Lu Chen countered, "Do you know why the Yue Emperor didn't choose anyone else but specifically picked you to come to the North Country and even instructed you to use your beauty to get close to me?"

Hearing this question, Murong Xue'er was momentarily taken aback.

She had never given much thought to this question because, in her view, the Yue Emperor was the Emperor, the ruler of a nation. Whatever he wished to do, he did, and if he wanted her to get close to the North Prince, then she was not in a position to refuse or to be skeptical.

Moreover, Murong Xue'er was aware of her own beauty, perhaps in the Emperor's eyes; she was attractive and matched the North Prince's preferences, and that might be why she was sent to the North Country.
