Chapter 485: Leaked Military IntelligenceChapter 116 Is Your Young Mistress Available

"This matter, this palace agrees to."

After a long time, just when Liu Sichun was about to despair, he finally heard a voice like heavenly music.

"This palace will inform the coastal defense commanders to show you leniency, but for now, you must refrain from making any announcements."

"Many of you are unaware of the dangers in court. If things go awry, your Liu family will be the first to be destroyed. So, watch yourselves carefully."

Liu Sichun stifled her joy and said, “The maidservant understands the severity of the situation and will not speak out.”

Li Chen said indifferently, "This palace knows you seek sea transport. There is another purpose, you probably also want to smuggle some goods prohibited by the court. These things are extremely profitable, enough to tempt any merchant to take risks."

Li Chen's words caused Liu Sichun's body to tremble slightly, but he didn't give her a chance to explain or argue. He continued, "However, this palace doesn't care. If I don't give you some meat to eat, how could you possibly die for this palace"

Remember, this palace doesn't mind small details, but if you don't do what I ask well, this palace won't spare any feelings from tonight.

Liu Sichun's heart ached. Sure enough, in the prince's eyes, she was nothing more than a plaything to be summoned at will.

No woman would want to become a man's plaything.

Liu Sichun was not an ordinary woman after all, and Li Chen was not an ordinary man.

She immediately thought of a way out. If her own body could bring greater benefits, it seemed like the best outcome in a bad situation.

"The woman understands."

"Understood You may leave now. I will have a squad of Jin Yi Wei guard you from the shadows."

Now that the world outside is in chaos, Liu Sichun's appearance and status make her the most likely target for those with ulterior motives.

Before, it was fine, but now that he has tasted a bit of Liu Sicun's flavor, Li Chen would never allow such danger to happen.

Liu Sichun's heart skipped a beat, and she softly said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

After Liu Sichun left, Li Chen walked out of the Xizheng Hall with his hands behind his back. He looked up at the pitch-black sky, there was not a single star, only the heavy snow that continued to fall tirelessly.

Thinking about the miserable state of Xishan province, Li Chen's mood was terrible.

Since the rebel army emerged in Xishan Province, it is highly probable that the military will be needed to ultimately resolve the situation. As military involvement is concerned, Li Chen would inevitably need to communicate and coordinate with Su Zhen-ting.

So the next morning, Li Chen went incognito to the General's Mansion.

"Long live the Crown Prince!"

Upon seeing Li Chen, the steward of the General's Mansion was startled and hurriedly knelt down.

And with that, the surrounding servants fell to their knees in a flurry.

"Where is your general" Li Chen asked.

“The General quelled the Imperial Guard just two days ago. He’s currently handling military affairs at the Southern Camp of the Imperial Guard, while the Young General is on duty at the Northern Camp. Please wait a moment, Your Highness, I shall immediately go summon the General.” The steward replied respectfully.

"Go."

Li Chen waved his hand and said, "Don't make a fuss. Since I came incognito, I don't want this matter to be known to everyone."

The house manager hurried to bow and said, "I understand."

Is your young mistress in the manor Li Chen suddenly asked.

Just as the steward was about to leave, he stopped and bowed, "Yes, she's currently in her boudoir in the backyard. I shall go fetch Miss for you."

"You go get your general here, this lady, this palace will go by myself."

Li Chen waved his hand, ignoring the steward's thoughts, and went swaggeringly to the back garden of the General's Mansion.Chapter 983: The Grand Wedding Day of the East Palace
