Lu Chen quickly had the maids arrange a room and attend to Bai Qingqing as she bathed and rested.

Just as Lu Chen was contemplating communicating with Bai Qingqing tonight, Chu Yuqin suddenly sought him out.

At this time, Lu Chen was sitting in the study, still recalling Bai Qingqing’s extraordinarily cold and beautiful face.

Knock, knock, knock…

After hearing the knock, Lu Chen snapped back to reality and immediately said, “The door isn’t locked, come in.”

The next moment, Chu Yuqin pushed the door open and entered.

Chu Yuqin was wearing a green Cloud Attire today, her voluptuous body fitting tightly against her clothes, accentuating her curvy figure. She wore her hair in a married woman’s bun, looking very much the part of a mature woman, which, of course, she was.

Seeing it was her, Lu Chen asked with a smile, “Madam Chu, what brings you here?”

Chu Yuqin went straight to the point, “Chen’er, did Bai losing her skill suddenly today have anything to do with you?”

She often lost her power abruptly in front of Lu Chen as well, so she wanted to know if it was caused by him. If it was Lu Chen’s doing, then it wasn’t a problem.

If Bai Qingqing had a health issue, she would need to pay close attention, which was why she came to inquire with Lu Chen.

Lu Chen didn’t hide anything and directly said, “Yes, it was because of me. I remember telling you that any woman who harbors love for me will lose her skill upon touching my body.”

Hearing Lu Chen’s response, Chu Yuqin showed a strange expression on her face.

Of course, she remembered him saying that.

At first, she thought this little rascal was joking with her.

When it dawned on her that only a woman who harbored love for him would lose her skill after touching him, Chu Yuqin was incredibly conflicted within.

So, she too had those feelings for Chen’er…

How could she harbor romantic feelings for him? It was absolutely not allowed!

Chu Yuqin hurriedly stopped herself from continuing that line of thought.

Then she changed the subject, “Chen’er, I remember you have an Immortal Technique that can heal people. Did you use it to check on Bai today to see what’s wrong with her body?”

Lu Chen replied, “I’ve already looked into it, there’s nothing wrong. It was just a little mishap during training. I’ve already helped her regulate it. I’ll go help her with it again later, and she should be fine.”

Chu Yuqin breathed a sigh of relief, so it was really just a training mishap. She had been afraid that Bai Qingqing was struck with some incurable disease and decided to spend her final moments at North Prince Mansion.

Chu Yuqin murmured, “It’s good that there’s nothing serious.”

With that, Chu Yuqin glanced at the intelligence reports on the desk, then asked, “Chen’er, are there any recent movements from the Barbarian Tribe?”

Lu Chen responded, “Not at the moment, but this gives us an opportunity to set up. The day after tomorrow, you and Zixuan should head southward.”

Chu Yuqin reminded him, “Youyou is about to give birth, and traveling at this time might not be good for her.”

Hearing Chu Yuqin’s reminder, Lu Chen was stunned.

How could he have forgotten about that?

It was indeed a problem; Zhou Youyou’s belly was already quite big, and she certainly couldn’t withstand the rigors of travel.

Should Zhou Youyou also stay in Yan County?

Although their chances of defeating the Barbarian Tribe were high, Yan County would be on the front lines of the war; Lu Chen didn’t want to leave any worries behind.

If Zhou Youyou stayed in Yan County, what would happen if the Barbarian Tribe’s experts found out about her? They don’t adhere to martial ethics what if they kidnapped her?

Although the likelihood was slim, it was not impossible, after all, anything could happen on the battlefield.

Just as Lu Chen was pondering what to do, a sudden voice from a maid came from outside, “Prince, something terrible has happened!”

Hearing the maid’s flustered voice, Chu Yuqin immediately turned around and opened the door to the study, and the maid entered, gasping for breath, “Prince… Madam Xiaozhou… something has happened.”

Hearing this, Lu Chen’s expression darkened, and he immediately stood up, then asked, “What happened?”

The maid quickly said, “Madam Xiaozhou was resting in the pavilion just now when she suddenly had abdominal pain, and then there was blood all over the ground, Madam Dazhou promptly sent me to find you.”

Hearing the maid’s words, Lu Chen realized Zhou Youyou might be in mortal danger, so without asking further, he went straight to the courtyard where she was.

Chu Yuqin also hurriedly followed behind him, ready to see if there was any way she could be of help.

Before long, the entire Prince’s Mansion became chaotic.

Seeing the maids running back and forth, Lin Wanyun, who sat in the eastern courtyard pavilion, grew curious. She immediately stopped a maid and asked, “Girl, what has happened in the Prince’s Mansion? Why does everyone look so panicked?”

The maid replied, “Madam Xiaozhou’s water broke, we’re going to the northern courtyard to help.”

Hearing this, Lin Wanyun was taken aback.

Madam Xiaozhou?

She certainly didn’t know who Madam Xiaozhou was, as “Xiaozhou” and “Dazhou” were merely distinctions the servants in the Prince’s Mansion made between Zhou Youyou and Zhou Xiaoxiao, but hearing the maids refer to her as madam, Lin Wanyun guessed it must be some concubine of the North Prince who was in trouble.

Lin Wanyun didn’t continue to detain the maid before her, “I see, you go on with your business.”

After giving a quick curtsy, the maid immediately bypassed Lin Wanyun and headed towards the northern courtyard.

At this moment, Lin Wanyun went to the pavilion and said to Chen Wanrong, “Palace Master, I think this is a good opportunity. If you could help the North Prince save the life of his concubine, he should be very grateful to you.”

For Chen Wanrong to plant the Love Worm in Lu Chen, she had to first make him fall for her. Only then could the Love Worm be successfully implanted.

Otherwise, even if she implanted the Love Worm, it would be difficult to completely control Lu Chen.

Chen Wanrong pondered for a moment, her expression cool, and then said, “Madam Lin, tell the maid to inform the North Prince that 1 can save his wife. If he needs help, he can just let me know.”

Seeing Chen Wanrong’s agreement, Lin Wanyun turned and went to the entrance of the courtyard, then caught a maid heading to the northern courtyard to relay the message to Lu Chen.

Hearing that someone could save Madam Xiaozhou, the maid of the Prince’s Mansion naturally did not dare to delay and hurriedly ran to the northern courtyard.

Lin Wanyun then returned to the courtyard and sat down in the pavilion.

“Palace Master, what shall we do next? Should we follow the wives and concubines of the North Prince as they head south?”

They had thought they could execute their plan with ease, but it seemed now that their plans would have to be postponed for some time.

No one expected the Barbarian Tribe to move south at this time, even less so that the North Prince would decide to fight them to the death in Yan County.

Chen Wanrong did not immediately answer; she gazed in the direction of the northern courtyard. After a while, she finally spoke, “We have waited so many years already, a little longer will not matter. If he dies in battle, we will go to the Capital city to find another Prince to collaborate with.”

The throne was a great temptation to any Prince, and Chen Wanrong believed there would be princes willing to work with their Mysterious Moon Palace.

However, compared to those princes, the North Prince was the most suitable candidate, after all, being away from the Capital city, it was more convenient for Mysterious Moon Palace to carry out its operations.

But if they truly had no other choice, they would have to collaborate with another Prince..
