Chapter 287: Chapter 210: Princess Wu of Great Wu in

North Country_2

Lu Chen wrapped his arms around Wang Qingci’s slender waist, whispering in her ear, “It has been a long time since I’ve been in contact with Mr. Wang’s body; I didn’t expect you to still be so sensitive.”

At this moment, a blush appeared on Wang Qingci’s face, her eyes filled with the mist of autumn water, and she then said, “Prince, you just like to bully me.”

Seeing Wang Qingci’s pitiful appearance, Lu Chen completely lost his self­control and pressed her down onto the desk.

Meanwhile.

At a certain restaurant opened by Rain-listening Pavilion.

Inside a private room, a stunningly beautiful woman was quietly sipping her tea.

The woman was dressed in a red garment, bordered with golden thread embroidery. Her hair was done up in a bun, adorned with golden hairpins, making her appear noble and elegant.

At that time, an old granny in the private room said to the woman, “Your Highness, do you think the woman we met earlier isn’t the true owner behind Rain-listening Pavilion?”

Wu Junwan smiled slightly and then set down her teacup, saying, “She is merely a Half-step Grandmaster. A Half-step Grandmaster cannot be running such a large power. After all, Rain-listening Pavilion’s business extends across several dynasties, with traces even in the Great Qian Dynasty.”

The old granny asked curiously, “Then why does Your Highness think that the real owner behind Rain-listening Pavilion must be in the North Country?”

Wu Junwan extended her delicate jade-like hand, softly picked up the teapot, and poured herself another cup of tea. While pouring the tea, she said, “Although Rain-listening Pavilion engages in all sorts of business, they started from the North Country. Based on my palace’s judgment, the true owner behind Rain-listening Pavilion is likely connected with the superpower supporting the North Prince Mansion.”

At this point, Wu Junwan picked up the teacup from the table and sipped her tea once more.

In her heart, Wu Junwan thought that this superpower must be plotting something, which is why she wanted to make contact with this force in advance to test their true intentions.

As a key figure in control of intelligence work within the Great Wu Dynasty, she needed to be aware of potential enemies—not just to know about them, but to understand their ins and outs and identify their weaknesses.

Only in this way, when facing this enemy in the future, the Great Wu Dynasty could come up with countermeasures more swiftly.

At this moment, another old man with white hair in the room asked, “Your Highness, how can you be sure that the real owner behind Rain-listening Pavilion will agree to meet with you?”

Wu Junwan smiled lightly, then said, “Whether he wants to see me or not is irrelevant. My request to meet their Tower Master is ostensibly for the purpose of business cooperation.”

No sooner had Wu Junwan’s words fallen than a portly man entered the private room. Upon entering, he immediately bowed and said, “This subordinate pays respects to Princess Junwan! May Your Highness live for a thousand, a thousand, a thousand more years!”

Wu Junwan nodded and then said, “President Qian, starting today, you will stay in the North Country. I’ve discovered that there are many good things in the North Country, and the commercial environment is also very favorable. The North Prince is not like the other Seigniors; he values commerce highly, which is very beneficial for Qianhai Commercial Association.”

Qian Dahai immediately said, “Yes, Princess Junwan.”

At that time, Qian Dahai said, “Princess, will you be meeting with the North Prince during your visit to the North Country?”

“Our company often interacts with the North Prince Mansion. If you wish to meet the North Prince, Qianhai Commercial Association can provide the connection.”

Qianhai Commercial Association, on the surface, is just a regular business association, but in actuality, it is an intelligence organization operated by Wu Junwan. Like Rain-listening Pavilion, Qianhai Commercial Association does business across several dynasties and also collects intelligence everywhere.

After hearing Qian Dahai’s words, Wu Junwan thought for a moment and then said, “No need. Making a pointed effort to get close to the North Prince may expose my identity too easily.”

“My main purpose in coming to the North Country is to see for myself what the reformations here really entail.”

Actually, Wu Junwan also wanted to meet the North Prince, but as he is now an important piece of that superpower, the superpower would certainly have people protecting the North Prince. If she approached the North Prince rashly, it was highly likely her identity would be discovered by others.

At this time, Wu Junwan was unaware that her identity had already been found out.

From the moment Wu Junwan left the Great Wu Dynasty, Rain-listening Pavilion had been monitoring their movements.

While they apparently returned to the Great Wu after leaving the Da Yue Dynasty, they had secretly come to the North Country. They had not expected Rain-listening Pavilion to find out about their little maneuver.

Furthermore, with the two Grandmasters behind Wu Junwan, Wang Qingci was almost certain that this so-called Miss Qian was actually the Princess of Great Wu.

Wang Qingci had a good eye for people; even without having seen the Princess of Great Wu, she could deduce from the aura exuding from Wu Junwan that the so-called Miss Qian was someone of high status.

Someone with Wu Junwan’s distinguished and noble temperament couldn’t possibly belong to a daughter of a commercial family. Whether it was her speech or her every action, she emanated the aura of a superior, clearly someone with great authority.

In the Great Wu Dynasty, the only woman holding great power was their Princess Junwan.

At first, Wang Qingci actually couldn’t believe her own guess, but then she thought about it, this woman was protected by two martial artists whose aura was nearly as strong as Lu Chen’s. Even upon coming to North Country, North Country might have no way to deal with her, so it was normal for her to dare to come to North Country.

Although she didn’t know what the woman was doing by stealthily coming to North Country, there must be some special purpose since she had come.

As for whether she was really the Princess Junwan of the Great Wu Dynasty, that would have to be left for Lu Chen to judge.

At this very moment, Wang Qingci was enduring the endless rage of Lu Chen in his study.

Lu Chen had not disciplined Wang Qingci for too long, and today his anger was especially intense.

A mere female slave, actually daring to disobey him, was simply looking for a rebellion, and needed to be severely punished.

The little maid at the study’s entrance blushed as she listened to the sounds coming from inside, her ears turning red.

At that moment, the figure of a beautiful woman appeared outside the study.

As the beautiful woman entered the courtyard, she heard the noises coming from the study. Seeing the maid’s blushing face, she immediately understood what was happening.

Chu Yuqin suddenly felt a sour jealousy in her heart and snorted, mumbling to herself, “Bitch! Coming in broad daylight to disturb Chen’er with his official duties, truly a calamity brought by a beautiful face!”

Even though Chu Yuqin felt somewhat uncomfortable hearing Wang Qingci’s voice, she didn’t leave the courtyard and just quietly waited outside.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound inside the study finally subsided.

In a little while, Wang Qingci emerged from the study, limping. She didn’t even glance at Chu Yuqin and used her qinggong to run away as if fleeing for her life.

After Wang Qingci left, Chu Yuqin walked straight towards the study. With the door still open, seeing Chu Yuqin at the entrance, Lu Chen quickly adjusted his clothes and said with a smile, “Madam Chu, when did you arrive?”

Chu Yuqin looked at Lu Chen somberly, then spoke, “Chen’er, with so many official duties to handle every day, how can you do such things with that bitch during the daytime?”

As she spoke, Chu Yuqin entered the study without closing the door, standing at the entrance as if to guard against Lu Chen.

Lu Chen sighed and said, “Ah, Madam Chu, you may not know, but recently I…”

Lu Chen hesitated, looking at the open study door, and then continued, “Madam Chu, please close the door first, I have a secret to tell you.”

Seeing the secretive look on Lu Chen, Chu Yuqin’s curiosity was piqued.

A secret?

What secret?

Could it be about immortals?

With this thought, Chu Yuqin turned and closed the room door, but as soon as the study door closed, a pair of restless hands wrapped around her slender waist.

Chu Yuqin’s mind paused, just about to say something, when she heard Lu Chen whisper in her ear, “Madam Chu, you might not know yet, but I have already broken through to the Grandmaster Realm.”

Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Chu Yuqin was completely stunned.

Grandmaster?

How is that possible?

Lu Chen is only seventeen years old, right?

A seventeen-year-old Grandmaster?

Others who want to break through to the Grandmaster Realm, even martial arts geniuses, would have to be at least in their forties or fifties.

He’s already a Grandmaster at seventeen!

Chu Yuqin quickly collected herself; after all, Lu Chen was someone with a destiny linked to immortals, so him becoming a Grandmaster so quickly didn’t seem too strange.
