Chapter 2100

Why do I feel like what she said makes sense?

Chen Min asked, "Young Master Lu should know about Tianxuan Palace, right?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Of course."

"The Holy Maiden and Palace Master of Tianxuan Palace are both in Zhennan Prince's Mansion. How could I not know about Tianxuan Palace? Why did you mention Tianxuan Palace, sir? Is it because Tianxuan Palace has offended you in some way?"

Chen Min said, "Perhaps Prince Lu does not know that Tianxuan Palace is not a force from the borderlands; they come from the Tianxuan Holy Land in the Central Plains."

Lu Chen said, "Palace Master Chu has already told me about the Heavenly Profound Holy Land. In addition, I also know about the ancient ruins. If you have anything to say, please speak frankly."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, a cold glint flashed in Chen Min's eyes.

As expected, Tianxuan Palace informed Zhennan Prince's Mansion about the ancient ruins, and they probably reached some kind of cooperation with Zhennan Prince's Mansion. At this time, it will not be an easy task for them to poach talent from Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

Then Chen Min said, "Young Master Lu, don't be fooled by the people from Tianxuan Palace."

"The Heavenly Profound Holy Land has a bad reputation in the Central Plains. Their disciples are arrogant and do evil because they rely on the Holy Land behind them."

"Don't be fooled by their low profile in the borderlands and the fact that they haven't caused any trouble yet. That's because the ancient ruins haven't been discovered yet, and not many of them have entered the borderlands."

“Once the restrictions on the borderlands are lifted, the experts from the Heavenly Profound Holy Land will be able to enter the borderlands, and they will definitely take action against the Zhennan Prince’s Mansion.”

Although she knew that poaching employees wouldn't be easy, Chen Min still decided to give it a try.

If they remain silent out of fear, then once the ancient ruins appear, Qionghua Holy Land will definitely be unable to compete with Tianxuan Holy Land, which has the assistance of the Heavenly Realm.

No matter what, we must bring the Zhennan Prince's Mansion to the side of Qionghua Holy Land. Even if we can't get the Zhennan Prince's Mansion to stand on the side of Qionghua Holy Land, we must plant a seed of suspicion in the hearts of the Zhennan Prince or Lu Chen, so that he knows that Tianxuan Palace has no good intentions.

Upon hearing Chen Min's words, Lu Chen couldn't help but laugh and say, "My lord, could it be that you came to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion today to deliver the imperial edict just to tell me this?"

Chen Min said, "Young Master Lu, I am doing this for the good of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. I don't want to see the Zhennan Prince's Mansion being misled, after all, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion has made such a great contribution to the Great Zhou."

Lu Chen glanced at Chen Min and then said, "Sir, if I'm not mistaken, you're not from the borderlands, are you?"

Seeing that Lu Chen had seen through her identity, Chen Min did not hide anything and admitted, "I am indeed not from the borderlands. I also come from the Central Plains, from a force called the Qionghua Holy Land."

Lu Chen asked, "If that's the case, then the forces behind you, sir, must also be after the ancient ruins. How do I know that you're telling me all this not to sow discord?"

Chen Min frowned; it seemed this remote native was not easily fooled.

After thinking for a moment, she continued, "I admit that I do have selfish motives. After all, the forces from Zhongzhou came to the borderlands for the ancient ruins and the inheritance within them."

"But what I said is indeed true; those people from Tianxuan Palace are definitely not good people."

"If Prince Lu is unwilling to believe it, then there's nothing I can do."

"However, even if Prince Lu does not believe me, please be careful of them."

"Of course, if Prince Lu ever comes to his senses, he can come to our Qionghua Holy Land. Whatever benefits the Tianxuan Holy Land can offer Prince Lu, our Qionghua Holy Land can offer double."

"In addition, we can also make an extra promise to Prince Lu that even if the border restrictions are lifted in the future, the Qionghua Holy Land will be able to protect the Zhennan Prince's Mansion."

Upon hearing Chen Min's words, Lu Chen fell into deep thought, seemingly considering whether or not to agree.

Seeing that Lu Chen did not immediately refuse, Chen Min was overjoyed, feeling that there was hope.

After a while, Lu Chen spoke up, "I will consider it. If you have nothing else to say, please leave." Although Lu Chen did not agree, Chen Min was not discouraged.

She noticed that Lu Chen had hesitated just now, and that hesitation meant they still had hope.

Next, all we need to do is let Lu Chen see the true face of Tianxuan Palace.

After Chen Min left, Lu Chen immediately returned to Chu Qingli's room.

Chu Qingli was still lying in bed when she saw Lu Chen return, and she immediately became nervous.

Is this scoundrel planning to come back again?
She's been going through this for a month with no results, so she's thinking of taking a few days off. If it hasn't worked after a month, a few more days won't make a difference.

At this moment, Chu Qingli asked, "What imperial edict did the court issue to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion? Does it want the Zhennan Prince's Mansion to hand over the people from Tianxuan Palace?"

Lu Chen went to the window, took off his shoes without saying a word, climbed onto the bed, and then easily pressed down on Chu Qingli.

Seeing that Lu Chen wanted to get things done as soon as he returned, a hint of resentment flashed in Chu Qingli's eyes.

Lu Chen looked down at Chu Qingli's cool and aloof face and said with a smile, "A person named Chen Min came just now. She seems to be a disciple of Qionghua Holy Land. Guess what she said?"

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Chu Qingli instantly tensed up, her body involuntarily stiffening. Looking at Lu Chen's face, she asked somewhat hesitantly, "What did she say?"

Seeing Chu Qingli's intense reaction, Lu Chen revealed a playful smile: "He said that your Tianxuan Holy Land is notorious in Zhongzhou, and that the disciples of the Tianxuan Holy Land are wicked, murderous, arsonist, and all sorts of evil deeds. He warned me to be careful of you."

"If the restrictions on the edge of the wilderness are lifted, the Heavenly Profound Holy Land will definitely destroy the Zhennan Prince's Mansion."

Hearing Lu Chen say this, Chu Qingli became even more nervous.

Her gaze was fixed on Lu Chen's eyes, as if afraid that Lu Chen would say he wanted to cooperate with Qionghua Holy Land at any moment.

At this moment, Chu Qingli asked, "Do you really believe what that person from Qionghua Holy Land said?"

Lu Chen countered, "Do you think I should believe what she says?"

Chu Qingli said, "That person is just trying to sow discord. Tianxuan Holy Land is a righteous force in Zhongzhou. How could they possibly condone their disciples' wrongdoing?"

At this moment, Lu Chen leaned down and whispered in Chu Qingli's ear, "Oh? Is that so? I feel like what she said makes sense."

At this point, Lu Chen's hands began to wander.

Based on his experience, women are generally more susceptible to being infected when they are emotionally unstable or under stress.

Therefore, doing things with Chu Qingli at this time would increase the chances of her getting pregnant.

At this moment, Chu Qingli's mind was not on matters between men and women at all. She ignored Lu Chen's little actions and felt her mind was in complete chaos.

If Lu Chen really chooses Qionghua Holy Land, what will they do next?
Lu Chen continued to provoke her, saying, "Palace Master Chu, a month has passed since our agreement, and you still haven't conceived my child. Are you just stalling for time?"

Chu Qingli quickly said, "I didn't."

Chu Qingli wanted to defend herself, but Lu Chen continued, "Since Palace Master Chu doesn't want to have children for me, I might as well cooperate with Qionghua Holy Land."

Chu Qingli's pupils contracted slightly, and she quickly said, "I didn't mean to..." (End of Chapter)
