When Lu Chen led the Daxia Army back to Yan County, the commoners of Yan County spontaneously ca out again to welco Lu Chen.
However, this ti Lu Chen was not on horseback; he sat in a carriage, embracing the beautiful Empress of Great Jue in his arms.
Wu Junwan hurried to the Imperial Palace as soon as she heard that Lu Chen had brought Li Qingrou back, now extrely worried about Li Qingrou's ntal state.
She understood Lu Chen and with that bastard's temperant, now Li Qingrou must have already lost her chastity, and she might even be pregnant by now.
Li Qingrou walked the Unfeeling Tao, and being oppressed by a man in such a way, she might well end her own life directly.
When the carriage stopped at the gate of the Imperial Palace, its door opened, and Lu Chen's wives and concubines, who were about to co forward, saw him holding a cool and seductive woman inside the carriage.
At that mont, the won imdiately paid respects and said, "We welco Your Majesty's triumphant return!"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Alright, alright, rise, we are old husbands and wives by now, and you are not unaware of what kind of person I am; I have never cared for these formalities."
As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, the won imdiately stood up.
Then, Lu Chen went on to say, "Let introduce to everyone, the lady in my arms is your new sister, the forr Empress of Great Jue."
Upon hearing Lu Chen's introduction, all eyes were drawn to Li Qingrou, and as an Empress, she naturally did not fear their gazes.
At that mont, Li Qingrou instead eyed Lu Chen's wives and concubines; each one of them was stunningly beautiful, looking like celestial maidens.
Quickly, Li Qingrou's gaze fell on Wu Junwan, whose belly was now visibly bigger, and seeing this, Li Qingrou still paused for a mont.
Though she had long known Wu Junwan was pregnant, seeing Wu Junwan with an enlarged belly firsthand, Li Qingrou still felt a little dazed.
Her good sister had been impregnated by a man like this, and there was always an odd feeling inside Li Qingrou, indescribable, but it certainly filled one with great emotion.
They had always assud that within a hundred years, neither of them would have n, let alone children, yet here was Wu Junwan, in her thirties, with a growing belly, and her man was more than a decade younger than she was.
Of course, Li Qingrou was in no position to comnt on Wu Junwan now, as she herself had beco the woman of the man behind her.
At this ti, Wu Junwan walked straight up to Li Qingrou, and the two beautiful won gazed into each other's eyes while Lu Chen also "considerately" let go of Li Qingrou.
Coming before Li Qingrou, Wu Junwan took her hand and asked with concern, "Qingrou, are you hurt at all?"
Li Qingrou replied, "No."
Li Qingrou looked again at Wu Junwan's belly and with her delicate hand, gently touched it and said, "Junwan, in the past you always said you would never marry in this lifeti, yet to think in just a few years, you're carrying soone else's child."
Upon hearing this, Wu Junwan felt a mix of emotions; not to ntion Li Qingrou, even she never expected to end up having her body taken by a man more than a decade younger than herself, and to even bear children for him. Discover more content at My Virtual Library Empire
But she had no regrets.
Though she had lost the chance to beco Empress, what she now had was far more joyful to her than power.
Sotis she wondered if she had been worn down by reality, by Lu Chen, losing her edges.
At this mont, Wu Junwan's gaze turned to Lu Chen, and then she said in thanks, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for sparing Qingrou."
Hearing this, Lu Chen laughed and said, "Let her go? No, no, no, I never said I'd let her go. She still has to bear my children in the future."
Wu Junwan gave Lu Chen a sowhat speechless look, the "letting go" she ant naturally referred to Lu Chen not killing Li Qianrou. However, this guy thought she was asking him to let Li Qianrou leave.
Who didn't know that this guy, whenever he saw a beautiful woman, was sure to take her into his harem? How could Lu Chen possibly let go of a mature, poised, and noble beauty like Li Qianrou?
At this mont, Lu Chen glanced over his wives and concubines, then said, "Alright, everyone go back now, don't just stand around here."
This was after all the entrance of the Imperial Palace. Lu Chen couldn't do anything he wanted here with so many onlookers. Once they got back to the Harem, Lu Chen could ss around as he pleased.
Speaking of which, Lu Chen looked at Wu Junwan and said, "Junwan, from now on, Qingrou will live with you all."
Upon hearing this, Wu Junwan felt very happy inside. Her good sister could finally stay with her all the ti.
Wu Junwan thanked him again, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lu Chen didn't say anything else and imdiately led his wives and concubines back to the Imperial Palace. There was a family banquet tonight, and whatever matters there were, they could talk about them slowly at the banquet.
Under the leadership of Wu Junwan, Li Qianrou arrived at Wu Junwan's palace residence.
After entering the courtyard in front of the palace, Wu Junwan brought Li Qianrou to sit inside a pavilion.
Wu Junwan sighed and then asked, "Qingrou, has Lu Chen hurt you?"
Li Qianrou asked, "Junwan, what do you an?"
Wu Junwan stopped short of speaking. She could clearly feel a significant change in Li Qianrou's aura, and she had also beco more womanly. All these signs indicated that Li Qianrou was no longer pure, and it was highly likely that Lu Chen had already devoured her.
At that mont, Li Qianrou wrapped her arms around Wu Junwan's voluptuous body and teasingly whispered in her ear, "Wanyan, no wonder you can't leave this man, asking not to harm him. It turns out he has so many tricks up his sleeve. Being with him must be very enjoyable for you, right?"
Li Qianrou was always serious in front of others, but with her close sisters, she was always very gentle.
Even though her nation had been destroyed by that man, as long as she saw her dear sister, the gloom in her heart would be swept away.
Hearing Li Qianrou's bantering words, Wu Junwan's cheeks flushed slightly, then she said, "Qingrou, you have indeed been... by him..."
ntioning Lu Chen, Li Qianrou snorted and said, "Although this man is indeed quite special, he is extrely lustful. Since he captured , he not only forcefully took my body but also kept locked up in Jinluan Hall, tornting every day."
"Wanyan, you must have been treated like this by him before, right?"
Li Qianrou's words reminded Wu Junwan of the events that had happened when she first arrived in Yan County.
Lu Chen indeed valued beauty greatly, and once he obtained a certain woman, he would spend a lot of ti with her for a long while.
What's most important was his sensitivity to identities; he enjoyed role-play. And since Li Qianrou was already a dignified and noble Empress, how could Lu Chen let her off easy when he had captured her?
Thinking of the tornt Li Qianrou had suffered, Wu Junwan said with a heartache, "Qingrou, it's been hard on you."
"It's all my fault."
