Chapter 1980 I heard from the servants that you brought a woman with you.
The Prince of Zhennan's Mansion.
The Study of the Prince of Zhennan.
The Prince of Zhennan sat at his desk, flipping through the files on the evil spirits that had massacred the village in recent times.
He had made up his mind to use this as a breakthrough to find the mysterious hiding place.
The Bureau of Suppressing Ghosts has already organized the files according to the timeline. Through these files, it can be found that at first, the strange occurrences only occurred in remote counties, but gradually, they moved towards the capital, and the villages that were slaughtered were getting closer and closer to the capital.
This made the Prince of Zhennan wonder if those strange forces had greatly increased in strength and were preparing to attack the capital, which was why they were massacring villages near the capital.
Perhaps, the reason Lu Chen was taken out of the capital by evil spirits was because of those strange things.
They targeted Lu Chen in order to retaliate against the Zhennan Prince's Mansion and ensure its lineage would end.
Fortunately, Lu Chen met Ji Yunmeng at that time; otherwise, Lu Chen might have been taken away from the capital region.
Thinking of this, the Prince of Zhennan felt a chill of fear. If Lu Chen hadn't met Ji Yunmeng back then, he would probably be a pile of bones by now.
Just as the Prince of Zhennan was staring blankly at the dossier, a servant at the study door said, "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has returned."
Upon hearing this, the Prince of Zhennan put down the dossier in his hand, then looked towards the door and said, "Come in."
The next moment, a servant entered the room and said, "The young master has brought back a woman."
Upon hearing this, the Prince of Zhennan frowned: He brought back a woman?
Since Lu Chen lost his memory, he has become more sensible. He shouldn't bring strangers back so easily now. This woman is probably not an ordinary person.
Thinking of this, the Prince of Zhennan said to his servants, "Send Lu Xun here."
"Yes." The servant bowed and left the study.
A moment later, a servant led Lu Xun to the study.
Lu Xun was at a loss for words at this moment, after all, the Prince of Zhennan was still alive.
If the Prince of Zhennan were to ask about what happened last night, as a subject, he should still speak. However, the Prince of Zhennan wouldn't live much longer, and the future Prince of Zhennan's mansion would belong to Lu Chen. He shouldn't offend Lu Chen.
At this moment, the Prince of Zhennan asked directly, "What did Chen'er do all night at the Hundred Flowers Pavilion?"
Seeing that the Prince of Zhennan had indeed asked this question, Lu Xun fell silent for a moment and did not answer directly.
Seeing that Lu Xun did not speak, the Prince of Zhennan immediately understood what was going on.
The Prince of Zhennan then continued, "I heard from the servants that Chen'er brought a woman back this morning. Something must have happened between Chen'er and that woman last night, right?"
Seeing that the Prince of Zhennan had guessed it immediately, Lu Xun no longer concealed it and said, "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince did indeed have physical intimacy with that woman."
Upon hearing Lu Xun's reply, the Prince of Zhennan placed his fingers on the desk and tapped them lightly.
He had previously asked Lu Chen to take a concubine, but Lu Chen refused.
Now, Lu Chen has gone to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion to find prostitutes.
Either this woman has something special about her, or Lu Chen may have regained his previous memories, which have had a certain impact on his personality.
If it's the former, that's fine. But if he regains his memories and becomes the same as before, then he'll have to have a serious talk with him.
Thinking of this, the Prince of Zhennan said to Lu Xun, "Go and have Chen'er come to the study."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Lu Xun bowed and walked towards Lu Chen's inner courtyard.
Lu Chen hadn't slept all night and was just about to rest when he heard Lu Xun's voice from the doorway: "Your Highness, the King requests your presence in the study."
Hearing this, Lu Chen had no choice but to get up and open the door. He glanced at Lu Xun but didn't say anything more.
Lu Xun's heart skipped a beat: Could it be that the Crown Prince thought he had betrayed him? If so, that would be troublesome. Lu Xun quickly said, "Your Majesty heard from the servants that you brought back a woman, and you probably want to ask her what's so special about her." Lu Xun didn't want Lu Chen to misunderstand him.
Lu Chen said, "So that's how it is." He didn't say anything more and went directly to the study of the Prince of Zhennan.
When Lu Chen entered the study of Prince Zhennan, he saw Prince Zhennan leaning back in his chair with his eyes slightly closed, seemingly resting.
Lu Chen took the initiative to ask, "Father, you were looking for me?"
The Prince of Zhennan opened his eyes and asked, "I heard from the servants that you brought back a woman?"
Lu Chen didn't hide anything and said, "Yes."
The Prince of Zhennan said, "Xiaobai is pregnant now and can no longer serve you. How about I arrange a few more concubines for you?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen knew that the Prince of Zhennan had misunderstood him, so he said, "Father, the woman I brought back is named Zhou Youyou. She can help me with my cultivation."
Upon hearing this, the Prince of Zhennan suddenly remembered the list that Lu Chen had given him some time ago.
Lu Chen was worried that the Prince of Zhennan wouldn't believe him, so he took the initiative to release the spiritual energy on his body.
The oppressive aura of the spiritual realm instantly filled the entire study.
Sensing Lu Chen's aura, the Prince of Zhennan showed a hint of surprise on his face, and then said, "I knew it, how could you possibly like a woman of the night? Since she can help you cultivate, then take her as a concubine. However, you are about to marry the princess, so you cannot openly take a concubine before you and the princess are married."
Lu Chen said, "Father, I understand."
The Prince of Zhennan continued, "You went to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion not just to find this woman, right?"
Lu Chen replied, "I want to see if Baihualou is related to the supernatural. I was kidnapped by evil spirits right after I came out of Baihualou, so I suspect that there may be something supernatural lurking in Baihualou."
The Prince of Zhennan asked, "Did you find anything?"
Lu Chen said, "We found nothing. Baihua Tower is very clean."
The Prince of Zhennan thought for a moment, then said, "It's also possible that the strange things at Baihualou knew you were going there, so they hid themselves."
Lu Chen said, "That possibility cannot be ruled out."
The Prince of Zhennan said, "Before those strange beings are absolutely certain they can get you out of the capital, they shouldn't make a move against you."
The Prince of Zhennan also wanted to use Lu Chen as bait to lure out those strange beings.
However, the other party's location was indeed strange, and they were not fools. How could they not see through the intentions of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion?
At this moment, the Prince of Zhennan said, "You should go back and rest first."
Lu Chen didn't say anything more, then turned and left.
In the inner courtyard of the Prince's Mansion, Bai Qingqing sat upright in the pavilion, carefully sensing the movements in her belly.
Since finding out she was pregnant, she had lost all interest in cultivation, fearing she might harm the baby.
The evil spirits are harmful not only to the body of the martial artist, but also to the unborn child.
If a woman continues to absorb negative spiritual energy during pregnancy, the negative energy in her body may harm the child and cause a miscarriage.
This is Lu Chen's first child. Regardless of whether Lu Chen's body is possessed by evil spirits, this child belongs to Lu Chen, so she must protect this child well until he is born.
Just then, a maid rushed up to her and said anxiously, "Master, something terrible has happened! The young master has brought a woman back with him."
Upon hearing this, Bai Qingqing's face remained expressionless, and her heart was completely unmoved. (End of Chapter)
