Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Chapter 29 Let Go of Auntie!

Watching Wang Qingci's departing figure, Chu Yuqin fell into deep thought.

A ninth-rank martial artist? And she actually claims to be Chen'er's female slave?

If Lu Chen were the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, Chu Yuqin wouldn't find it strange at all that he had a ninth-rank female slave, since the Crown Prince wielded real power.

However, in the eyes of outsiders, Lu Chen is an incompetent, dissolute good-for-nothing.

This Wang Qingci actually took the initiative to become his female slave.

Could it be that the forces behind Wang Qingci have already discovered Chen'er's disguise?

Or rather, the power behind Chen'er is the same power behind Wang Qingci.

At this moment, Chu Yuqin arrived at Lu Chen's room door, feeling it necessary to remind Lu Chen.

Just then, Lu Chen came out of the room and saw that Chu Yuqin looked somewhat serious. Lu Chen asked curiously, "Aunt Chu, is there something you need?"

Chu Yuqin asked, "Chen'er, is that Wang Qingci from the force that supports you?"

Hearing this question, Lu Chen looked completely confused. What forces were supporting him?

Does Aunt Chu believe that she has some powerful force backing her?

Lu Chen thought for a moment and realized that his behavior had been too unusual lately. In addition, he had taken out modern firearms like the Desert Eagle and Barrett, which were groundbreaking in their era. This probably made Chu Yuqin think that she had a powerful force supporting her.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen smiled and said, "Aunt Chu, how did you know?"

The existence of a system was something that could never be revealed, but in order to put Chu Yuqin at ease, Lu Chen planned to make up a lie.

Chu Yuqin sighed and then said, "Chen'er, that woman is not simple. She is a ninth-rank martial artist."

"Auntie doesn't really want to interfere too much in your affairs, but since it involves your personal safety, Auntie still wants to remind you."

"The faction that supports you must have grand ambitions. Although I don't know their purpose yet, don't let them lead you around."

"If you want that position in the capital, just tell your aunt. I will tell your grandfather, and then your grandfather and the Chu family will definitely stand on your side. You don't need to rely on those forces of unknown origin."

The Chu family originally did not intend to give up on Lu Chen, but Lu Chen was simply hopeless, and now that he had been driven to the desolate place of Beijun, the Chu family had to consider other candidates.

After all, Lu Chen is the grandson of the Chu family patriarch. In terms of blood relations, he is the closest among the princes.

If Lu Chen could stand up and boldly declare his intention to participate in the struggle for the throne, not only the Chu family, but also most of the prominent families in Jiangnan would support him.

In Chu Yuqin's view, Lu Chen had no need to rely on those forces of unknown origin.

Hearing Chu Yuqin's words, Lu Chen smiled slightly, then walked to Chu Yuqin's side and naturally took her hand.

Holding Lu Chen's hand like that, Chu Yuqin's delicate body trembled involuntarily, but she did not pull away, after all, they often held hands and talked before.

Lu Chen then said, "Aunt Chu, I know what you're worried about, but I can assure you that the force behind me is completely obedient to my orders."

"There are some secrets I can't tell you directly. If I did, it would probably throw not only the Great Xia Dynasty but the entire world into chaos. But I can reveal a few things to you."

Chu Yuqin's heart trembled slightly. What secret was so terrifying that it could cause chaos in the world?

At this moment, Lu Chen lifted Chu Yuqin's jade hand and wrote the two characters "Immortal" in her palm.

Upon seeing the words Lu Chen had written, Chu Yuqin was immediately shocked, and a hint of panic appeared on her dignified and elegant face.

As everyone knows, this world is a world of martial arts, and there are no immortals.

Even if someone reaches the legendary Celestial Realm, it only adds a few hundred years to their lifespan; they will still die.

Countless people have tried various methods to become immortals, and emperors of countless dynasties have searched everywhere for immortals, ultimately leading to the collapse of their dynasties and the change of dynasties. However, immortals in this world are still just unattainable legends.

Now, Lu Chen actually told Chu Yuqin that his secret was related to immortals. How could Chu Yuqin not be shocked?

If Lu Chen's secret is truly related to immortals, it could indeed lead to chaos in the world, and not only chaos, but also the downfall of countless countries and dynasties.

Chu Yuqin said in a panic, "Chen'er, you don't need to say anything more. From today onwards, don't reveal anything about those two words to anyone, including me."

Lu Chen asked, "Aunt Chu, did you believe me so quickly?"

Chu Yuqin said, "I have no choice but to believe it. The mysterious weapon on your body and the sudden surge of internal energy you have generated have already proven that what you said is related to those two words."

At this point, Chu Yuqin still asked with some concern, "Could it be that Wang Qingci and the forces behind her are also related to those two words you mentioned?"

Lu Chen shook his head and said, "No, I just have the means to control them so that they can't betray me. If they betray me, they will die."

"So far, I am the only one who knows this secret, because I am the sole inheritor."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yuqin felt a surge of emotion, and tears unconsciously welled up in her eyes.

Lu Chen was stunned by what he saw.

"Aunt Chu, why are you crying?"

Chu Yuqin quickly rolled up her sleeves to wipe away her tears, saying as she did so, "If your mother knew that you had such an opportunity, she would be very happy in the afterlife."

Chu Yuqin originally thought that Lu Chen's life would just pass by like this, but she never expected that he would actually have a chance to obtain immortality, something that so many people dream of, and it actually fell into Lu Chen's lap.

Chu Yuqin, who had watched Lu Chen grow up since he was a child, was genuinely happy for him.

With this connection to the immortals, even if he can achieve immortality, Lu Chen will at least be able to do many things, such as vying for the position in the capital.

Lu Chen hugged Chu Yuqin's mature and graceful body, then patted her back and comforted her, saying, "Aunt Chu, don't cry, don't cry, this is something to be happy about."

At this moment, the fragrance emanating from Chu Yuqin wafted into Lu Chen's nostrils, and the soft, delicate body in his arms instantly aroused him.

Lu Chen was speechless. The Dragon Tiger Pill was truly the root of all evil, making him completely lose his self-control.

Chu Yuqin, who was about to say something, noticed something amiss and her face instantly turned bright red. She quickly pushed Lu Chen and said, "Chen'er, let go of your aunt. You are a married man now. It's not good for others to see us hugging."

Lu Chen didn't let go, but leaned close to her ear and said, "Aunt Chu, what's the big deal? You're the closest person to me. Let's see who dares to gossip."

"Besides, you've watched me grow up since I was little, and we've done even more intimate things together. What's wrong with a hug?"

Hearing this, Chu Yuqin became even more flustered, and she quickly nudged Lu Chen's body again.

As a result, she then discovered that her internal energy had dissipated, and she could not muster any strength at all.

Chu Yuqin quickly said, "Chen'er, don't be like that. You're all grown up now, not a child anymore. You need to know how to avoid suspicion in some things."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Aunt Chu, no matter how old I am, you are still my aunt, and I am still your Chen'er."

At this point, Lu Chen hugged Chu Yuqin tightly, their bodies pressed together.

Feeling the warmth of Lu Chen's breath, Chu Yuqin was already somewhat confused.

Chu Yuqin's heart was filled with determination.

No! This can't go on!
