Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife

Chapter 380: Chapter 250: The Chu Family’s Cancellation of Engagement Letter_3

Chu Qingli felt at this moment as if her own words were a lie, yet she had indeed made such an agreement with Lu Chen.

Chu Qingli now had a feeling, a sense of being manipulated by Lu Chen.

Chu Qingli cursed in her heart, this damned bastard, to think he had been plotting from the very beginning!

Previously, she thought that a hundred transactions over three months would be the end. After the transactions, her sister would gain her freedom, and she herself would also leave the North Prince Mansion.

But now she realized, things couldn’t be that simple. She was already completely unable to leave Lu Chen, even if she cursed Lu Chen as a bastard, she’d involuntarily think about him at night after a few days without transactions.

Not only was she unable to leave Lu Chen, but revealing the matter of their transactions made her sister disbelieve her due to the high number, thinking she was shameless and indulging in pleasures instead.

Seeing Chu Qingli fall silent without speaking, Chu Yuqin asked, “Qingli, speak, what exactly are you planning?”

Chu Qingli’s face flushed as she replied, “I don’t know.”

Chu Yuqin asked, “Didn’t Chen’er say he wanted to take you as a concubine?”

Chu Qingli had wanted to retort with “Who would marry that bastard,” but swallowed her words before they could leave her mouth.

No matter how much she denied it, in her sister’s eyes, she would always appear insincere, especially since her sister had personally witnessed her and Lu Chen together, not just witnessed, but listened to them from the courtyard for an entire night, leaving her no room for defense.

Were she to claim she didn’t like Lu Chen, her sister would surely retort, “If you don’t like him, why then make such sounds?” and that she had stealthily carried out the same deed a hundred times.

Chu Qingli felt that even if she jumped into the Great Sea to the east of North Country, she could never cleanse herself, and now married she must be.

Chu Qingli was silent for a while before saying, “Sister, marrying Lu Chen is my business, but you have your own happiness… This man…”

Chu Qingli didn’t finish her sentence before Chu Yuqin interrupted, “Qingli, are you trying to say that Chen’er is despicable and shameless, with indecent and dirty methods?”

“Humph, at this point, are you still trying to stop me from serving Chen’er?”

Chu Qingli didn’t know what to say anymore, feeling anything she’d say would be useless. Eventually, she took a deep breath and said, “Sister, I will no longer concern myself with your affairs with him in the future. Whatever you two wish to do, so be it.”

Hearing Chu Qingli’s words, Chu Yuqin felt a surge of joy, finally getting Chu Qingli to relent.

At this moment, Chu Qingli thought to herself, since she couldn’t prevent Lu Chen from taking over her sister, she might as well stay in the North Prince Mansion and watch over them. If one day Lu Chen betrayed her sister, she would definitely avenge her sister and make Lu Chen regret his actions.

…

Meanwhile.

At Yan County, within a private room of a tavern.

More than a dozen men in bamboo hats were drinking when a man in grey cloth entered the room and whispered to the man sitting by the window, “Commander, she’s been staying in the North Prince Mansion this whole time, hardly ever going out. Zhuge Zhongguang lives right next to the North Prince Mansion, so if we take action, we’ll definitely alert Zhuge Zhongguang.”

With the strength of a Grandmaster, and one close to breaking into the Heavenly Human Realm at that, Zhuge Zhongguang was obviously not an easy adversary, which made Wang Jiantao somewhat troubled.

Bai Qingqing was likely to have betrayed the Sum Emperor. The Sum Emperor tolerated no betrayal, and she had to be dealt with, being a Deputy Commander of the Shadow Guard. If she were to live, how could he intimidate the other Shadow Guards in the future?

Wang Jiantao then asked, “Has the Shadow Guard’s letter been sent into the Prince’s Mansion again?”

The grey-clothed man replied, “It has been sent, but she’s unlikely to pay any attention to it.”

Wang Jiantao hadn’t eliminated the Shadow Guards from Yan County before solely so they could lure out Bai Qingqing. But in these past days, they had used the old Shadow Guards to pass on several pieces of intelligence to Bai Qingqing, none of which had managed to draw her out.

Wang Jiantao then said, “Seems like she has sensed that His Majesty is eliminating the traitors. We need to find another way to lure her out.”

…

At this very moment.

In North Land.

On the vast grasslands, the sound of horns echoed.

A large barbaric tribe Cavalry, clad in beast hides, was swiftly advancing eastward. The size of this Cavalry was massive, stretching so far that the end was nearly out of sight.

A man clad in black-gold metal armor, carrying a huge ax, gazed towards the east.

Soon, their scouts returned.

The scouts immediately dismounted and saluted the man, saying, “Great King, the Sky Wolf King tribe and North Fre King tribe have been destroyed by North Country. According to our intelligence, North Land has already been annexed by the Great Sum North King.”

Hearing this, the man immediately said, “Those two tribes have shamed our Barbarian Tribe. When I initially allowed them to join me, they refused, only to be annihilated by a flock of sheep! Ridiculous! Truly ridiculous!”

At this point, a confidant next to the man said, “Great King, shall we vanquish North Land, or march south to attack North Country?”

Tianqi King laughed, “What good is there in North Land for us to go there? If we go, we should go to North Country!”

“To have destroyed both the Sky Wolf King and North Fre King tribes, this North King of Great Sum does have some strength. I would like to see what makes North Country so special after all!”

Another confidant by his side then cautioned, “Divine Envoy instructed us to occupy North Land first and not to act rashly. If she learns that we went to attack Great Sum, she might be displeased.”

Hearing the reminder, Tianqi King’s face darkened instantly. The thought of that breathtakingly beautiful woman set his heart aflame, yet he was no match for her, having suffered several losses at her hands.

Tianqi King snorted coldly, “Is she your queen, or am I your king?”

Seeing Tianqi King angered, his confidant Generals said nothing further.

In their hearts, everyone knew that Tianqi King had suffered defeat when fighting Great Jue and was feeling disgruntled, urgently needing to vent on some power.
