Lu Chen hugged Xiao Wenyao and asked the maidservants of the City Lord's Mansion many questions about Xuanyuan Chaoge and Great Yu City.
Seeing how much Lu Chen cared about the matters of Great Yu City and his exceptionally serious deanor, Xiao Wenyao obediently sat in Lu Chen's embrace without moving a muscle, feeling the hard seat becoming sowhat uncomfortable.
Through Lu Chen's inquiries, he had co to understand the situation in Great Yu City quite thoroughly; it had developed even better than he had anticipated.
Initially, he had thought that Great Yu City was rely wealthier than Yan County, but as he ca to understand, he found that the lives of the common people in Great Yu City far surpassed those in the Great Xia Capital city, thus it was no wonder that these commoners had no desire to go to Yan County.
However, on another note, Great Yu City really provided a suitable environnt for industrial developnt. Firstly, craftsn were abundant, and Xuanyuan Chaoge encouraged the common people to be hands-on, unlike other places in the Great Xia Dynasty that still had divisions among scholars, farrs, artisans, and traders.
So of the officials in Great Yu City were of craftsman origin, so the status of craftsn in Great Yu City was relatively high, without the strict divisions of scholars, farrs, artisans, and traders.
Lu Chen now felt that sending Mo Xing back to Great Yu City to construct steam engines and trains had been an utterly correct decision. To develop industry in Great Yu City one would benefit from a relatively stable environnt, where nurous craftsn were present, and importantly, these craftsn's acceptance of new things far exceeded that of the common folk of Great Xia.
While Lu Chen was lost in such thoughts, suddenly he felt the delicate beauty in his arms squirming.
Lu Chen ca back to his senses and asked at Xiao Wenyao's ear, "What's wrong?"
Hearing Lu Chen's question, Xiao Wenyao's face flushed with heat as she whispered back, "Prince, your servant... your servant feels sowhat uncomfortable."
Hearing this, Lu Chen imdiately realized and said with a smile, "I apologize, I wasn't paying attention. I will make it up to you right now."
With that said, Lu Chen directly hugged Xiao Wenyao's delicate body and placed her on the large bed before gently pressing down upon her.
The next morning, bright and early.
After getting up, Lu Chen enjoyed a sumptuous breakfast. The arrangents Xuanyuan Chaoge made for him were of the highest standard, whether it was the food, the anities, or the accommodations.
It must be said that the systems in place were truly loyal.
After breakfast, Lu Chen planned to visit the northern cattle ranch of Great Yu City. A significant reason for the city's high standard of living was because Great Yu City had long engaged in large-scale ranching. Though the common people of Great Yu City couldn't have at in every al, they at least ate more at annually than the commoners in average cities.
At that mont, Lu Chen said to Xuanyuan Chaoge, "Lord Xuanyuan, you have official duties to attend to, so there's no need to accompany this Prince today."
Hearing Lu Chen's words, Xuanyuan Chaoge imdiately thought of the look Lu Chen gave Xuanyuan Yunqi the day before, and promptly said to Lu Chen, "Your Majesty, since it's your first visit to Great Yu City and you are not yet familiar with it, how about I have my daughter show you around?"
At this, Xuanyuan Chaoge turned to a servant at his side and instructed, "Go call Yunqi and have her show the way for the Prince."
Seeing how understanding Xuanyuan Chaoge was, Lu Chen smiled faintly and then said, "Then I'll trouble Yunqi."
Hearing Lu Chen call Xuanyuan Yunqi as "Yunqi," so intimately, Xuanyuan Chaoge knew there was a chance. He hadn't anticipated that his daughter, born when he was more than two hundred years old, could potentially catch the eye of the future Human Emperor. It seed destiny itself wished for the revival of the Xuanyuan Family!
A mont later.
City Lord's Mansion, Xuanyuan Yunqi's boudoir.
As Xuanyuan Yunqi donned her black and gold armor and picked up her Red Tassel Spear, preparing to head to the military camp outside the city, a maid hurried to her side.
"Miss, the master has instructed that you accompany the Prince around today."
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Yunqi was taken aback.
Frankly, she did not have a particularly good impression of Lu Chen. Upon learning of the appearance of the Human Emperor, she had used various channels to inquire about Lu Chen, only to discover that their future Human Emperor was quite the philanderer, with a harem full of won.
While it was normal for a man to have multiple wives and concubines, even her father had more than one wife.
But her father's motivation to have children was not solely driven by lust. He was just worried about leaving no successor until the coming of the Human Emperor, which was why he desired a child with exceptional Martial Arts Talent to take up the mantle. Moreover, her father didn't marry many won at once; he only took another wife after the passing of the previous one.
This North Prince, on the other hand, was different. According to letters sent back by her brother, the North Prince's harem already contained many beautiful won, and he had fathered six children.

In her view, this future Human Emperor was simply fond of beauty.
Of course, even though she knew of the Human Emperor's proclivity for beauty, she didn't harbor too much contempt for him. After all, he was the future Human Emperor, the one her father and his predecessors had awaited for centuries. The Xuanyuan Family's mission was to assist the Human Emperor in achieving great feats.
Moreover, Xuanyuan Yunqi also saw that despite Lu Chen's fondness for the opposite sex, always having beautiful wives and concubines by his side and unable to live without won, he was still quite kind to the people of North Country.
It was also indeed possible that the North Prince had managed to annihilate two powerful Barbarian Tribe clans in North Land and even defeat the Tianqi King, a Grandmaster.
