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

Chapter 360 Just how good is the relationship between Emperor Yue and Wu Junwan?

Hearing Murong Xue'er's words, Lu Chen smiled faintly and said in her delicate ear, "Since you are already mine, what's the point of me pretending?"

Murong Xue'er said coldly, "Your Highness, don't forget that everything we've done is a transaction."

Lu Chen said nonchalantly, "Of course."

As they talked, Lu Chen put his arm around Murong Xue'er and led her to the rest room in the study.

Upon entering the rest room, Lu Chen placed Murong Xue'er directly on the bed, then pressed down on her and continued kissing her.

After a while, Murong Xue'er's eyes became misty, clearly showing that she had fallen for Lu Chen. However, Lu Chen did not continue. He raised his chest, looked into Murong Xue'er's eyes, and asked, "I heard that Empress Yue and Wu Yunwan are fellow disciples? Were they once disciples of the same sect? What sects did they join in the past?"

Seeing that Lu Chen had actually stopped at this moment, Murong Xue'er couldn't help but twist her body, raising her jade hand to grope Lu Chen's body as if searching for something.

Lu Chen grabbed Murong Xue'er's wrist. The next moment, Murong Xue'er's other hand started to wander around. Lu Chen grabbed her wrist again with his other hand. Then he placed Murong Xue'er's hands on top of her head and pressed them down with one hand, continuing to look down at her.

At this moment, Murong Xue'er, the ice-cold beauty, said with a seductive expression, "Well... we can talk about those things later, don't torture me..."

Lu Chen chuckled and then said, "If you don't tell me, I won't continue."

Hearing this, Murong Xue'er regained some of her senses and said coldly, "You...you are truly a despicable man!"

Murong Xue'er suspected that Lu Chen was afraid she wouldn't tell the truth, so he deliberately kept her hanging like this every time, asking her questions, and then doing something else after she answered.

This wasn't the first or second time. Lu Chen had used similar methods on previous visits to the Prince's Mansion. To her, Lu Chen's actions were no different from torture.

Lu Chen said, "If I weren't despicable, how could I have won over such a talented woman as you from the Great Yue Dynasty?"

At this point, Lu Chen raised his hand and pinched Murong Xue'er's delicate chin.

Murong Xue'er forcefully turned her head, breaking free from Lu Chen's hand. She looked to the side and said, "Yue Huang and Wu Junwan are indeed disciples of a certain sect. However, the sect they joined is in the far west. Few people have been to the far west, and not many people know about it. Apart from Yue Huang and Wu Junwan, almost no one knows which sect they joined."

Hearing Murong Xue'er's answer, Lu Chen was stunned. He hadn't expected that information exchange between the west and east sides of this continent was so poor. Almost no one in the eastern dynasty knew what the situation was like in the west.

He had already ordered the Embroidered Uniform Guard to investigate the far west, but according to their investigation, it seemed that the area west of the Black Dragon Kingdom was a world of mist. Anyone who entered it was very likely to get lost. As for what lay further west of the mist, only those who entered and then came out of the mist would know.

Wu Yunwan and Yuehuang were the ones who survived after entering the mist, so they must know what's inside the mist.

Lu Chen thought to himself that once Wu Junwan arrived in the Northern Kingdom, he would definitely inquire about what exactly was in the west.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen reached out and ripped Murong Xue'er's black and white dress off with a sharp pull. Murong Xue'er was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Lu Chen, "You!"

Murong Xue'er hesitated, feeling annoyed by Lu Chen's actions. He had torn her clothes, and she was worried about how she would get back later.

However, Lu Chen had torn off her clothes, clearly indicating that he was about to take the next step. She was already in great discomfort and didn't want to endure it any longer, so she didn't say anything.

Seeing that Murong Xue'er was sulking, Lu Chen smiled and said, "Me? What happened to me?"

Murong Xue'er snorted coldly and said nothing.

At this moment, Lu Chen placed his hand on Murong Xue'er's stomach, stroking it as he said, "This virginity mark has faded quite a bit. It seems I'll have to redraw it for you later."

Murong Xue'er remained silent, secretly hoping Lu Chen would quickly do something bad to her. However, Lu Chen made no further move, instead continuing to ask, "Just how good is the relationship between Emperor Yue and Wu Yunwan?"

Upon hearing this question, Murong Xue'er bit her lip slightly.

That bastard!

Asking so many questions, you can't be a little quicker.

She's already torn my clothes, and she's still asking those irrelevant questions.

Although she was somewhat dissatisfied with Lu Chen, Murong Xue'er still answered, "Very good. Every time Wu Yunwan goes to Dayue, she eats, lives, and sleeps with the Emperor."

"I have a vague feeling that Emperor Yue has a special feeling for Wu Yunwan. When I serve Emperor Yue, he often hugs me and calls out Wu Yunwan's name."

"And she also..."

At this point, Murong Xue'er's words came to an abrupt halt.

Lu Chen was listening intently when Murong Xue'er suddenly stopped, which piqued his curiosity. He immediately asked, "And what happened to her?"

Murong Xue'er hesitated for a moment, but still didn't continue.

Lu Chen asked with a smile, "Didn't you say you wanted to cooperate with me? Why are you still helping Emperor Yue hide things from me?"

Murong Xue'er then said, "And she often pinned me down, just like you...doing that kind of thing."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen was stunned.

He seemed to have heard something incredible.

So Emperor Yue was actually that kind of person...

Lu Chen then asked curiously, "She's an empress, what kind of men hasn't she met? Why would she do something like this to a mere maid like you?"

Murong Xue'er replied, "This seems to be related to the cultivation technique she practices; she cannot engage in sexual relations."

Lu Chen said thoughtfully, "So, it's possible that the Moon Emperor still retains his pure body?"

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Murong Xue'er felt something was off. She looked at Lu Chen strangely, "Why do you seem so excited? Could it be that you're also interested in the Emperor Yue?"

Lu Chen snapped out of his daze and said with a smile, "Is Xue'er jealous?"

Murong Xue'er did not answer.

At this moment, Lu Chen released his hands that were restraining Murong Xue'er. Seeing that Lu Chen had released her hands, Murong Xue'er suddenly hugged Lu Chen's strong waist, then flipped over and turned Lu Chen down onto her. Now it was Murong Xue'er's turn to look down at Lu Chen.

Murong Xue'er was very dissatisfied with Lu Chen at this time.

This jerk is so indecisive, he might as well just do it himself.

Lu Chen lay on the bed, looking at Murong Xue'er's face, which was cold yet flushed, without making any movement.

In terms of strength, Murong Xue'er was definitely no match for Lu Chen, but Lu Chen didn't intend to do anything and let Murong Xue'er do whatever she wanted.

At this moment, Murong Xue'er immediately began to undress Lu Chen.

Lu Chen teased, "Xue'er, look at you, you're getting more and more impatient. Where is the demeanor of a great talented woman?"

Murong Xue'er blushed and completely ignored Lu Chen's humiliating words. She quickly stripped off Lu Chen's clothes, then bent down and kissed him.

She is no longer the person she used to be. Although she still feels some shame in front of Lu Chen, her inner desires have made her reckless.
