Hearing Chu Yuqin’s words, Lu Chen smiled slightly; he, of course, knew what kind of person Chu Yuqin intended to introduce to him.

Lu Chen’s gaze then fell upon Chu Qingli, who was beside Chu Yuqin.

Chu Qingli had a cold demeanor, dressed in a light blue garment, holding a sword in her hand. Her beauty was striking; tall and slender, with a waist so slight it seemed it could be encircled by one’s hands, she was like a fairy from the heavens.

She was similar to Bai Qingqing, both being the type of woman who had a cold aloofness about them.

However, her coldness differed from Bai Qingqing’s; Bai Qingqing’s was solitary, a coldness devoid of emotional warmth, while Chu Qingli’s was more of an arrogant coldness, her exterior icy, but what lay within her heart was uncertain.

Lu Chen looked at Chu Qingli and said, “Madam Chu, is this young lady beside you the one you wish to introduce to me?”

Chu Yuqin responded, “Yes, this is my sister; her name is Chu Qingli.”

Hearing this, Lu Chen chuckled and said, “Madam Chu’s sister? Should I also address you as ‘Aunt’ then?”

Chu Yuqin said, “There’s no need for that; just call her Qingli.”

Although by seniority, it wouldn’t be wrong for Lu Chen to address Chu Qingli as ‘Aunt’, as a Prince, he couldn’t possibly call everyone by such a term; a Prince has his own dignity to maintain.

As for Chu Yuqin herself, Lu Chen had been calling her ‘Aunt’ since he was young, for over a decade, and she had been calling him ‘Chen’er’ for just as long, so it was acceptable for the two of them to address each other in this manner, but it certainly wouldn’t be appropriate for others to do the same.

At that moment, Chu Qingli, somewhat reluctant, approached Lu Chen and performed a curtsy, saying, “This humble girl pays her respects to the Prince.” Lu Chen laughed and said, “Qingli, we are all family here; there’s no need for such formality.”

Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Chu Qingli inwardly found it amusing, thinking to herself, who would consider this lecher part of their family?

Chu Yuqin then continued, “Chen’er, I would like Qingli to take up the position of Vice Leader of the Internal Guards in the Prince’s Mansion; what do you think?”

After all, the Prince’s Mansion was Lu Chen’s domain, and a position like a Commander would certainly require his approval.

After hearing Chu Yuqin’s suggestion, Lu Chen replied without hesitation, “Good, no problem.”

“Bai would be perfect as my personal guard, so Qingli can take over Bai’s former position.”

Originally, Lu Chen had planned for Bai Qingqing to remain the Deputy Commander of the Internal Guards, but since Chu Qingli was coming in, he decided to let her take on that role.

In Lu Chen’s view, the more women he had in his inner court, the better, especially ones as beautiful as Qingli.

At that moment, Chu Yuqin gave Lu Chen a look, then glanced at Chu Qingli out of the corner of her eye, before finally asking with concern, “Chen’er, 1 heard that you led the soldiers of North City in battle against an army of three hundred thousand from the Barbarian Tribe for an entire night. Did you sustain any injuries? Is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?”

Lu Chen sighed and said, “Ah, Madam Chu, 1 was fine until you asked; now my Dantian is starting to hurt again.”

“I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve used too much of my skill that I’ve been feeling my Inner Strength has not been flowing smoothly these past few days. I feel listless, and I’m even having difficulty breathing.”

Hearing what Lu Chen said, Chu Yuqin’s face immediately showed a worried expression, and then she asked, “Don’t you know how to use that Cultivation Technique to regulate your body? Bai’s skills should be superior to mine; didn’t you ask her to help you with it?”

The Cultivation Technique that Chu Yuqin was referring to was, of course, the Dragon and Phoenix Yin Yang Skill. However, since her sister Chu Qingli was present, she dared not say it out loud; after all, it was a dual cultivation technique, and mentioning it would expose her intimate contact with Lu Chen. Lu Chen then said, “Madam Chu, have you forgotten that Bai is an emotionless being? Operating that Cultivation Technique requires someone who resonates with my heart and mind. No matter how strong she is, it’s useless if that isn’t the case.”

Hearing this, Chu Yuqin seemed to remember that Lu Chen had indeed told her from the beginning that only a woman who harbored thoughts of him could activate the effect of his special Cultivation Technique.

Although Bai Qingqing was Lu Chen’s woman, she lacked emotions, so even if she and Lu Chen were intimate, it was useless for operating his special Cultivation Technique, regardless of whether they had shared a bed.

As Chu Yuqin pondered this, a blush crept across her face. Did this mean that she was the only one who could tend to Chen’er’s needs, and no other woman could?

At that thought, strange feelings arose within Chu Yuqin’s heart, a mix of satisfaction and embarrassment, a complex blend of emotions.

Overhearing the conversation between Lu Chen and Chu Yuqin, Chu Qingli slightly furrowed her brows and looked at them with a suspicious glance.

She always felt that there was an illicit affair between Chu Yuqin and Lu Chen.

What kind of Cultivation Technique required two people to be emotionally connected? That didn’t sound like any orthodox skill.

Realizing her sister’s suspicious gaze, Chu Yuqin coughed and quickly said to Lu Chen, “Chen’er, I’ll take Qingli back to the Prince’s Mansion now to arrange her living quarters. We can discuss the rest later.”

Lu Chen replied, “Hmm, okay.”

Chu Yuqin then said to Chu Qingli, “Qingli, come with me. I’ll show you to your room.”

Without further thought, Chu Qingli followed Chu Yuqin into the Prince’s Mansion. After all, she was now in the Prince’s Mansion, and her sister’s every move would be under her surveillance. If her sister had any special relationship with the North Prince, she would eventually find out..
