Chapter 301: Yan Mei I want _1
Chu Qin gave a faint smile, "I didn’t name anyone, I’m just giving you a heads-up! It’s not the thousands I fear, but the slim chance of the one. Especially for an emperor, he won’t trust anyone but himself."
"Hmm!" Qian Renxue nodded, "Just like you said, Xue Ye is Xue Ke’s father. If he behaves and eventually hands over power to me, then I may leave him be! But if he doesn’t remain in line, then we’ll have no choice but to disappoint Xue Ke."
"Hmm!" Chu Qin smiled faintly.
"However, Chu Qin, when the time comes, will you really have the heart to take action against Xue Ye?"
"The Hao Tian Clan is Yuehua’s family, and I still took action!" responded Chu Qin, "Don’t worry, I’m no saint!"
While speaking, Chu Qin wrapped his arms around Qian Renxue’s waist, "Xue’er, it seems you’ve changed in the last few days!"
"Ah?" Qian Renxue’s beautiful eyes lit up.
"You’ve become even more captivating!" Chu Qin said with a faint smile, his hand reaching deeper inside Qian Renxue’s clothing!
"You bad boy!" Qian Renxue’s pretty face blushed, and she quickly retaliated.
"Xue’er, do you remember what you promised me?" Chu Qin asked while smiling faintly during this moment.
"Hmm?" Qian Renxue raised an eyebrow.
"You said, once I returned safely from Slaughter City, you would give Yan Mei to me!" Chu Qin said with a tilt of his mouth.
"You’re so bad!" Qian Renxue hummed softly while replying, "Then you, need to get me a new guard!"
"That..." Chu Qin was at a loss for words. His guards were all his wives; they couldn’t leave him!
"Just kidding!" Qian Renxue smiled, "Snake Uncle and Spike Pig Uncle, they will be arriving soon!"
"Snake Spear, Spike Pig? You’ve already arranged it." Chu Qin asked.
"Hmm!" Qian Renxue nodded, "Chu Qin, don’t be prejudiced against Snake Uncle and Spike Pig Uncle. They’ve watched over me since I was little; they’ve been so good to me! And rest assured, I will never, ever betray you! If such a day comes, I am willing to take my own life before you..."
Before Qian Renxue could finish, Chu Qin covered her mouth with his hand, "Don’t you say such things!"
"Hmm!" Qian Renxue nodded slightly, smiling.
Immediately after, Chu Qin pushed Qian Renxue onto the bed beside them and began...
Half an hour later, Chu Qin and Qian Renxue got dressed, for the banquet was still going on, and they couldn’t be gone too long.
Even so, they were satisfied, Chu Qin’s control over temperature once again proving most useful!
"Aunt Mei Wu!" Qian Renxue put on the disguise of Xue Qinghe and stepped out of the Crown Prince’s Mansion with Chu Qin, calling out.
"Crown Prince!" Yan Mei heard them and immediately teleported in front of Qian Renxue.
Chu Qin took a deliberate glimpse at Yan Mei, it was clear she had put on a chest wrap!
"Aunt Mei Wu, from now on, you’ll follow Chu Qin!" Qian Renxue said.
"Ah..." Yan Mei recalled the scene just now, her face turning slightly red!
"What, do my words carry no weight?" Qian Renxue asked with slight severity.
"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Yan Mei quickly responded, "This subordinate will get ready and set off for the Qinglong King’s Mansion immediately!"
Four hours later, the banquet ended, and Chu Qin was kept behind by Xue Ye for a heart-to-heart talk for quite a while.
In the end, Chu Qin, along with the women, returned to the Qinglong King’s Mansion.
The women had agreed to Lin Dai to participate in the Women’s Knight Group’s first "training session;" therefore, Chu Qin was not in a hurry to return to the Qinglong King’s Mansion and followed them to the Azure Dragon Academy.
One could see that at this moment, Captain Lin Dai was leading the members of the Women’s Knight Group in formation practice.
Such formations might be easily broken by Chu Qin, but most of the time, they could still be very effective. Previously, Lin Dai and Su Jin relied on the Women’s Knight Group’s strong coordination to kill many God-Slaying Cult members stronger than them.
"Your Majesty the Duke, you’ve arrived!" Seeing Chu Qin’s arrival, Lin Dai appeared particularly excited. She immediately stopped the drill and ran up to Chu Qin.
"Hmm!" Chu Qin nodded, "How is it, are you comfortable living at the Azure Dragon Academy?"
"Hmm, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Everyone is grateful for providing us with such a good training venue," Lin Dai replied.
"What about the finances?" Chu Qin asked further.
"Regarding finances, we are indeed a bit strapped. However, Princess Xue Ke has already helped us contact the various guard armies and Knight Groups of the Tiandou Imperial Capital. They’ve agreed to arrange some special tasks for us to obtain compensation!"
"That still doesn’t seem enough," Chu Qin said with a smile, "How about I sponsor you some?"
Lin Dai shook her head, "Thanks for the generous offer, Your Majesty, but you’ve already provided us with a place to stay. We really cannot trouble you with the financial matter anymore! Besides, taking on some tasks can better enhance the Knight Group’s strength and combat experience."
"Do we also need to take on tasks?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.
"You all are the wives of the Duke, so you’re considered external knights of the Women’s Knight Group, and there’s no need for you to take on tasks! I suppose His Majesty the Duke wouldn’t want you to go through such troubles!" Lin Dai said with a nonchalant smile.
"Hmm!" Chu Qin nodded. Each of these women could be considered his life. Undertaking these tasks could carry risks, which Chu Qin was unwilling to face.
"No way!" However, Xiaowu shook her head, "Captain Lin Dai! Since we’ve joined the Women’s Knight Group, we’re members now. How can we expect special treatment?"
"That’s right! We are strong enough now," Wang Qiu’er followed up, "We can’t always live under Chu Qin’s wing!"
"Exactly!" Zhu Zhuyun, Huo Wu, Shui Bing’er, and the others said in unison. They were all outstanding among their peers and had a certain pride.
"Since the Duke’s wives agree, then I will try to arrange some tasks within the Tiandou Imperial Capital," Lindai furrowed her brows and said.
"Alright then!" Chu Qin finally nodded. "But You Ji, Bi Ji, Aunt Mei Wu, you three can’t participate!"
"Why?" You Ji and Mei Wu asked in unison.
"Yeah, it sounds like so much fun!" Bi Ji pouted slightly.
"What do you think?" Chu Qin glanced at them. You Ji, Bi Ji, and Mei Wu were soul beasts, and moreover, they were soul beasts without the Dragon Clan’s secret method. Lin Dai might not notice, but in a place teeming with hidden dragons and crouching tigers like the Tiandou Imperial Capital, Chu Qin had to keep them by his side!
