Chapter 357: Chapter 243 It seems that all men are the same, and you are no exception_1

Seeing Chen Wanrong becoming angry, Wei Siyuan chose not to say anything more. It was normal for Chen Wanrong to be upset, after all, the Wei Family was the power she valued most for the restoration of the country, and yet he just told her that the Wei Family had long had a master.

Anyway, he had told Chen Wanrong the truth, and the next move was up to the North Prince. Since the North Prince had long been aware of Chen Wanrong’s identity and had kept her in the North Prince Mansion for so long, that indicated he held a certain favorability toward her.

Wei Siyuan hoped that the North Prince would quickly win over Chen Wanrong and have offspring with her, as this would benefit the Wei Family members as well.

After that, Wei Siyuan said, “This old servant shall take his leave.”

With those words, Wei Siyuan turned and departed.

Yunrong Courtyard became incredibly quiet again. The gentle breeze rustled the leaves, and the two people inside the pavilion did not speak, simply sitting there in silence.

Lin Wanyun glanced at Chen Wanrong, knowing that today’s events must have been a huge blow to her.

Although Chen Wanrong now was the Palace Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace, most of the people there weren’t under her control, including many Elders who constantly suppressed her as the Palace Master.

Therefore, for Chen Wanrong’s restoration of the country, the power of the Wei Family was extremely important, particularly the one hundred thousand elite soldiers from Wind Cloud Island.

Unfortunately, those one hundred thousand elite soldiers had now become people of the North Prince Mansion…

Thinking about it, if Chen Wanrong were to also know about her affair with Lu Chen, it would likely be an even greater blow. Lin Wanyun felt extremely conflicted at the thought.

After a long while, Lin Wanyun finally spoke up, “Palace Master, what do you plan to do next?”

Chen Wanrong did not answer Lin Wanyun’s question, continuing to sit quietly.

Seeing this, Lin Wanyun sighed and said no more.

At this point, Chen Wanrong was thinking that since Lu Chen had sent Wei Siyuan to Yunrong Courtyard to personally tell her about the Wei Family’s allegiance to the North Prince Mansion, it was likely Lu Chen intended to have a showdown with her.

Indeed, after having been at the North Prince Mansion for so long, it was time for a showdown.

With that in mind, Chen Wanrong planned to meet with Lu Chen tonight and also to ask Lin Wanyun what exactly the antidote she mentioned while with Lu Chen was all about.

Ever since she overheard Lu Chen and Lin Wanyun’s conversation, she had been checking her own body, but no matter how she examined it, she found no signs of poisoning.

If she, a disciple of the immortal, couldn’t detect her own poisoning, she began to suspect that Lin Wanyun might have been deceived by Lu Chen.

In the deep quiet of the night, lights shone brightly in Lu Chen’s study as he examined the latest map of the North Country, looking for a place to build a port city.

The large merchant ships of the Dongfang Clan were arriving by sea to the North Country without a place to dock. Soon, soldiers from Wind Cloud Island would also arrive, and he planned to create a navy. Thus, building a port became an urgent matter.

After scanning the map, Lu Chen finally decided to build the port city on top of a fishing village. Dongfang Clan’s merchant ships were currently docking there, and the place, with an extending peninsula, was well-suited as a sheltered harbor.

Just as Lu Chen finalized the location for the port city and was planning to visit Spring Sound Court to cultivate a relationship with Yelv Nanyan, he suddenly sensed a familiar presence outside the courtyard.

The next moment, an arrow flew in through the door and struck the bookshelf.

It seemed there was a paper tied to the arrow. Lu Chen walked over to inspect it, pulled out the arrow, and then took the paper to read.

The paper contained just one sentence.

“Meet tonight at the Mysterious Moon Tavern in the southern city.”

Seeing this, Lu Chen showed a hint of a smile. He, of course, knew who had sent this note— he had just sensed Chen Wanrong’s presence.

Even if he wasn’t a Grandmaster and couldn’t sense Chen Wanrong’s energy, he could still guess who wanted to meet him tonight.

Obviously, Chen Wanrong was ready to have a showdown. Both of them had been in the North Prince Mansion for so long, their plans not only unsuccessful but also involving Lin Wanyun. Now, her power for the restoration of the country had pledged allegiance to the North Prince Mansion, and she had no choice but to confront him.

As for any danger, Lu Chen was unconcerned about it. He himself was a Grandmaster, and with another Grandmaster in the city, if a Grandmaster’s battle broke out, Zhuge Zhongguang would quickly notice.

Moreover, Lu Chen didn’t believe that Chen Wanrong, who had a one hundred percent favorability toward him, would kill him.

Then, Lu Chen bathed, changed into fresh clothes, and set off alone toward the Mysterious Moon Tavern in the southern part of the city.

By the time Lu Chen arrived at the Mysterious Moon Tavern, there were hardly any people left on the streets.

When the carriage stopped at the entrance of the Mysterious Moon Tavern, and Lu Chen got down, he felt Chen Wanrong’s familiar energy.

Looking up, he saw Chen Wanrong in white clothes standing on the balcony of the third-floor loft of the Mysterious Moon Tavern, gazing at the moon above.

At that time, a female disciple of the Mysterious Moon Palace approached Lu Chen, “Prince, please follow this girl.”

Lu Chen smiled slightly. With his ability, he could easily leap directly to the third-floor loft, without the need for stairs.

However, he felt that would be somewhat improper, too hasty. How could he rush when meeting with a fairy late at night, in case it left a bad impression on Chen Wanrong?
