Yan County.
Inside the Imperial Palace.
Lu Chen stood behind Murong Xue'er, holding a brush, writing sothing on her jade-like back.
At that mont, Lu Chen asked, "How are the craftsn progressing in their learning?"
Since imparting so basic knowledge from Earth to Murong Xue'er, she had beco a teacher, starting to train the craftsn of Great Sum.
Of course, the first batch of craftsn were carefully selected; these craftsn, summoned from the system's designated area, had absolute loyalty to Lu Chen—they would never betray Great Sum.
Upon hearing Lu Chen's inquiry, Murong Xue'er, who was quietly lying on the bed, slightly turned her head and looked at Lu Chen, writing, and replied, "The craftsn are quite talented and grasp the teachings quickly. It won't be long before they can study independently."
Murong Xue'er also imparted only basic knowledge to the craftsn. As for the specific knowledge, they had to study on their own in the Great Sum Royal Library.
Hearing Murong Xue'er's response, Lu Chen was very satisfied inside. His idea was to have Murong Xue'er train the craftsn and then have those craftsn serve as teachers in various schools established across Great Sum, passing on their knowledge to the scholars of Great Sum.
In this way, the people of this world would soon be able to embrace a substantial amount of modern knowledge, potentially entering an industrial age within a couple of hundred years.
Of course, these were just Lu Chen's thoughts; the pace of industrial developnt in this world would depend on many factors.
At that mont, Lu Chen said with a smile, "Once that batch of craftsn have learned enough, I will make a list for you to train more people. Later, we can have those trained craftsn teach others the foundational knowledge."
Murong Xue'er said faintly, "I understand."
After her words fell, Lu Chen's hand heavily landed on Murong Xue'er's buttocks, gazing at her jade-like back, Lu Chen mumbled to himself, "It would be great if the Curse Pattern were also on the back."
The Curse Pattern Lu Chen referred to was, naturally, the one on Murong Xue'er's lower abdon. Hearing this comnt, Murong Xue'er gave Lu Chen a cold glance—this bad elent, always thinking up so mischief.
After his words had fallen, Lu Chen raised his hand and activated his Spiritual Power. The next mont, a fine brush flew off Murong Xue'er's bookshelf, followed by a bottle of special ink.
Although this ink was also black, once mixed with Spiritual Power, the markings it made could stay on the skin for a long ti.
Lu Chen then picked up the fine brush, dipped it in the black ink, and bent down to start drawing the Curse Pattern on Murong Xue'er's jade-like back.
Murong Xue'er remained kneeling; she paid no attention to Lu Chen's actions as she was already used to it—let him do as he wished.
Murong Xue'er then turned her head back, lowered it and said, "That woman next door is always laughing at . When will you deal with her?"
For Murong Xue'er, an occasional visit from Lu Chen was enough; this man often visited to try and impregnate her, and she was almost overwheld by it.
She had pleaded with Lu Chen countless tis, yet he still refused to spare her, as though he wouldn't rest until she beca pregnant.
As a result, now, whenever she went out, she was mocked by Wu Junwan, saying she was no different than those licentious won in the Hundred Flowers Tower.
Murong Xue'er felt helpless; she indeed wanted to conceive, but her stomach remained unresponsive—what could she do?
Her heart was also sowhat gloomy; even Wu Junwan, that Pseudo Celestial, had succumbed, so why couldn't she beco pregnant?
Murong Xue'er planned to divert the trouble elsewhere, luring Lu Chen next door.
Having heard Murong Xue'er's words, Lu Chen instantly saw through her little sche—that beauty wanted to divert the trouble.
Lu Chen then said, "You know she is carrying my child, no matter how much I want to harm her, I wouldn't do anything at this ti, I'm not a beast."
Hearing this, Murong Xue'er scoffed in her heart. In her eyes, this guy was no different from a beast, and even those beasts couldn't compare to him.
Murong Xue'er continued, "Your Majesty has so many concubines in the harem, yet you keep coming to . Over ti, they will have complaints."
Lu Chen indifferently replied, "What complaints can they have? If anyone complains, I will make her serve my bed for ten consecutive days, then she will have no complaints."
Murong Xue'er was completely speechless. This guy really wanted to get her pregnant.
Murong Xue'er said, "Your Majesty, so things can't be forced. You know that martial artists of high realms are not so easily impregnated."
Lu Chen nonchalantly said, "Of course, I know that martial artists of high realms don't easily conceive, but the more attempts, the greater the possibility."
"The less you are able to conceive, the more I must co here. Otherwise, how many years will it take for you to conceive?"
Hearing these words from Lu Chen, Murong Xue'er simply stopped talking and quietly lay there waiting for Lu Chen to draw.
Lu Chen didn't know how long he had been drawing until he finally finished the Curse Pattern on Murong Xue'er. Seeing the beautiful and intricate black Curse Pattern against her fair skin, Lu Chen suddenly felt a bit fuzzy in his brain, and a violent emotion surged within him.
Lu Chen paused for a mont.
At that mont, Murong Xue'er also noticed the anomaly. Seeing that Lu Chen had stopped drawing, she turned her head again to look at him, and noticed his eyes seed sowhat bloodshot.
Startled by this sight, Murong Xue'er exclaid, "Your Majesty, what is happening?"
Before Murong Xue'er could finish speaking, Lu Chen simply waved his hand, and all the brushes and inkstones by his side flew to the desk in the room, then he leaned over.
After exclaiming, Murong Xue'er glared at Lu Chen, but he ignored her look and started attending to his own matters.
After an unknown amount of ti, Lu Chen sobered up a bit. He thought to himself that the Curse Pattern was said to control people, and he had doubted its effects on himself since he was immune to all poisons.
However, now it seed that the Curse Pattern did have so effect; it indeed could influence one's emotions, at least making him more irritable.
The Yue Emperor might have made a mistake when initially applying the Curse Pattern on Murong Xue'er, as the effects seed to be better when applied to the back.
Early morning.
When Lu Chen got up, he glanced at Murong Xue'er beside him, who was completely incapacitated.
Seeing this, Lu Chen was very pleased and said with a smile, "Xue'er, your body is indeed soft."
Hearing this, Murong Xue'er wearily turned her head and said weakly, "Your Majesty truly treats like a plaything."
Lu Chen said, "Do I? You are my consort; how could I treat you as a plaything?"
Murong Xue'er sighed and then said, "Well, now that I have fallen into Your Majesty's hands, you can do as you please." Experience more on My Virtual Library Empire
Murong Xue'er had resigned herself to her fate. Her mind felt muddled and unclear, and all she wanted was a good sleep.
Lu Chen also noticed that Murong Xue'er was very tired, so he said, "Rest well, I still have to attend the court today, so I will get up now."
With that, Lu Chen slowly got up. Although Murong Xue'er wanted to rest more, once Lu Chen got up, she too got up and personally helped him dress.
