Chapter 79: Chapter 79 Is This Really the Useless Prince from the Rumors?_i

Upon seeing the woman descend from the carriage, Lu Chen stood completely still on the spot.

The woman’s exquisite face was as cold as ice, dressed in white garments that outshone the snow. Her skin was smooth and delicate, her hair tied in a cloud bun with a plum blossom mark on her forehead. Her figure was graceful and elegant, radiating a sacred glow, just like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world.

It wasn’t until the woman spoke that Lu Chen snapped back to reality.

“This commoner pays respects to the Prince.”

Although Chen Wanrong was the Palace Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace, formally, the palace was still under the jurisdiction of Great Sum, so upon meeting a Prince of Great Sum, it was necessary for Chen Wanrong to show her respects.

Chen Wanrong’s voice was crisp and quiet, possessing a unique allure that inadvertently stirred one’s heart.

Regaining his composure, Lu Chen stammered, “Dispense… dispense with the formalities.”

Afterward, Lu Chen immediately used the system to identify the information about the woman before him.

[Name: Chen Wanrong]

[Identity: Scion of Chen Family, Princess of Chen Nation, Palace Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace, 21 years old, Master Realm, coming to North City mainly to get close to the North Prince, to control him with a Love Worm, and then use the blood of the North Prince to concoct the Subtle Dragon Spell against the Sum Emperor, to take revenge for Chen Nation.]

[Rating: 98]

[Favorability: 10]

Seeing the score of 98, Lu Chen realized the significance. A score of 98, he thought she deserved a full hundred for her beauty.

Chu Yuqin only had a score of 97.

Considering this, did a score above 95 mean that with each additional point, the beauty of a woman increased tremendously?

Of course, Lu Chen didn’t think Chen Wanrong could be much more beautiful than Chu Yuqin, it was her aura that was like that of a fairy, which truly captivated him the most.

After the excitement, Lu Chen quickly calmed his emotions and then, smiling to Chen Wanrong, he said, “It is my honor to have Master Chen visit my Prince’s Mansion; Madam Lin, Master Chen, please come inside.”

As Lu Chen gazed intently at Chen Wanrong, Lin Wanyun sighed quietly to herself.

She knew that the North Prince had been smitten by Chen Wanrong’s beauty.

Probably within a few days, Chen Wanrong would be able to use the Love Worm on the North Prince, who would then be completely under her control, ultimately becoming a tool to concoct the Subtle Dragon Spell.

As the sister of Chu Yue, who was once sworn sisters with Lin, Lin Wanyun felt somewhat reluctant to see Lu Chen in trouble, but they needed to use the Subtle Dragon Spell to deal with the Sum Emperor.

Following this, Lu Chen led Chen Wanrong and Lin Wanyun into the Prince’s Mansion.

Once they entered the main courtyard of the Prince’s Mansion, Lu Chen immediately had a servant brew a pot of Dragon and Phoenix Tea.

When the tea was served, Lu Chen personally poured a cup for Lin Wanyun and Chen Wanrong, then said, “Madam Lin, Master Chen, you must be tired from the journey. This is a special tea from the mansion, which can refresh the mind and relieve fatigue. Please have a taste.”

Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Lin Wanyun immediately picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then used her inner strength to check if there was anything added to the tea she just drank.

After confirming that the tea was clean, Lin Wanyun took another sip.

Lin Wanyun’s actions were subtle and would usually go unnoticed, but Chen Wanrong was able to see and became convinced after Lin Wanyun’s second sip that there was nothing added to the tea.

Even though they were in the North Prince Mansion, as the Palace Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace, Chen Wanyrong still remained cautious.

Assured that the tea was safe, Chen Wanrong also lifted her delicate hand, took up a cup of tea, and gently sipped a small mouthful.

In an instant, Chen Wanrong felt a coolness spread into her body, then throughout her whole being, making her feel extremely comfortable.

Chen Wanrong was somewhat surprised; she hadn’t expected the North Prince Mansion’s tea to actually have a refreshing and invigorating effect.

Seeing Lin Wanyun and Chen Wanrong drink the Dragon and Phoenix Tea, Lu Chen’s smirked slightly and then asked, “Miss Chen, Madam Lin, what brings you to North City this time?”

Upon hearing this question, Lin Wanyun replied, “We are just passing through North City by chance.”

Lu Chen feigned a look of regret and said, “So you’re just passing through North City? It seems then that you will be leaving North City very soon.”

Lin Wanyun smiled and said, “Although we are passing through, the Palace Master and I plan to stay in North City for a while.”

Lu Chen said indifferently, “I’m afraid that’s not going to be possible, as you’ll have to leave North City soon.”

Lin Wanyun asked curiously, “Why is that?”

Chu Yuqin interjected from the side, “Sister Lin, the Barbarian Army will soon head south, and Chen’er’s wives, concubines, and children are about to leave Yan County for Anping City.”

This wasn’t a secret; the Prince’s Mansion was about to announce it to all the common people of North City—soon, everyone there would know about the barbarians heading south, so Chu Yuqin just said it outright.

Hearing Chu Yuqin’s words, Lin Wanyun and Chen Wanrong were both momentarily stunned.

They hadn’t expected that their arrival would coincide with such an inopportune time as the barbarians heading south.

However, the barbarians moving south didn’t seem to have much impact on their plans, did it?After all, the North Prince, such a worthless Prince, should be afraid of death, and with the barbarians moving south, he would likely flee to the south as well, they just needed to follow the North Prince.

At that moment, Lin Wanyun asked, “Will the Prince also be heading south with the common people?”

Lu Chen smiled faintly, and then said, “North City is my fief, and 1 am its Prince; how could 1 possibly leave North City? I will fight a decisive battle against the barbarians in Yan County and defend North City!”

Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Chen Wanrong and Lin Wanyun were stunned once again.

They didn’t expect the North Prince to have such a spirit.

Wasn’t the outside world filled with rumors that the North Prince was a worthless Prince who only knew how to indulge in pleasures within his mansion every day?

How could such a worthless Prince have this level of enlightenment?Or could it be that the barbarians’ southern invasion was just a small force as usual, perhaps only coming to plunder and steal some food, and that the North Prince was not concerned about the barbarian cavalry attacking Yan County, and thus was fearless?

At this point, Chen Wanrong spoke up, asking, “Prince, may I know how many soldiers the Barbarian Tribe has dispatched this time as they head south?”

Lu Chen replied, “Based on the intelligence we have gathered, this time the barbarians intend to found a nation in North City, thus they have sent three hundred thousand cavalry. They plan to occupy North City and make Yan County their capital.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Wanrong’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Three hundred thousand troops!

From what she knew of the intelligence, North City had only thirty thousand soldiers.

In such a situation, the North Prince wasn’t planning to flee south, but instead claimed he would fight a decisive battle against the barbarians in Yan County?

Thirty thousand against three hundred thousand was a war with no chance of victory!

Was this truly the worthless Prince of rumor?

Just by his spirit alone, he was already much better than those high-ranking officials and nobles in the Capital City who knew only of indulgence and revelry every day.

Having just met the North Prince, Chen Wanrong’s heart had already undergone a significant change in opinion towards Lu Chen.

She believed that the intelligence at Mysterious Moon Palace might have been flawed. The North Prince surely couldn’t be the man from the rumors who only knew how to seek pleasure in his mansion every day..
