Since the day Chen Wanrong joined the Mysterious Moon Palace, she had been thinking about restoring her nation, but with Great Sum’s powerful military, a short-term restoration was simply impossible.

However, the opportunity had now arrived.

As long as the war between Great Sum and Great Wu dragged on for a few more years, once Great Sum’s national strength was almost depleted, if they could rally the former forces of Chen Nation, the restoration would have a significant chance of success.

Lin Wanyun naturally saw through Chen Wanrong’s intentions, but she still reminded her, “Palace Master, the elders of the Mysterious Moon Palace have sent people to remind us several times to return to the Mysterious Moon Palace. If we do not go back soon, I’m afraid…”

Although Chen Wanrong was the Palace Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace, the Palace wasn’t solely under her control; the real power lay in the hands of those elders behind the scenes.

The reason Chen Wanrong had become the Palace Master was due to her extremely high martial arts talent, but this did not mean she could act as she pleased.

Lin Wanyun mentioned the elders directly, mainly to remind Chen Wanrong that if she wanted to restore the nation, there was a great possibility the elders would object.

As the Palace Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace, running off to restore a nation, especially using the power of the Mysterious Moon Palace, was something those elders could hardly accept.

Moreover, the Mysterious Moon Palace rarely interfered with the matters of great dynasties and did not want to get involved with their complicated affairs. Very few in the Mysterious Moon Palace knew the purpose of Chen Wanrong’s descent from the mountain.

Hearing Lin Wanyun’s reminder, Chen Wanrong spoke indifferently, “I will take the time to place the Love Worm on North Prince. After the Love Worm is planted, I will return to the Mysterious Moon Palace and then descend the mountain again.”

As long as she could plant the Love Worm on Lu Chen, he would be under her control from then on, and there would be no need for her to stay in North City.

The only reason she remained in North City was that she had not found an opportunity to use the Love Worm on Lu Chen.

After all, Lu Chen had too many women, and all of them were of stunning beauty. It was normal for him to show no interest in her, given his harem full of exquisite women.

She needed to be more proactive.

However, she had never pursued a man before and did not know how to make a man fall for her. Everywhere she went, the men captivated by her beauty would fall in love with her without her having to deliberately seduce anyone.

Chen Wanrong was convinced that Lu Chen did have feelings for her; it was just that he was very good at restraining his desires.

To be precise, it wasn’t that he restrained his desires, but that he could release them at any time without any buildup in his heart.

Therefore, he had no need to pursue her, a woman who obviously had designs on him.

Thinking this, Chen Wanrong looked at Lin Wanyun and then asked, “Madam Lin, do you know how to make a man fall for you?”

Hearing this question from Chen Wanrong, Lin Wanyun was suddenly dumbstruck.

To make a man fall for oneself?

She was already in her thirties and had never had an intimate or ambiguous relationship with any man. How could she possibly know how to make a man like her?

Nevertheless, Lin Wanyun had guessed why Chen Wanrong would ask such a question. She then said, “Palace Master, I believe that with your beauty, even if you do nothing, North Prince will be moved by you.”

Chen Wanrong said softly, “I need to make him fall for me as quickly as possible.”

This…

Lin Wanyun then said, “Palace Master, I don’t know much about men.”

Hearing Lin Wanyun’s words, Chen Wanrong said no more. She also realized that Lin Wanyun had never actively seduced another man. Like her, Lin Wanyun was completely inexperienced in this regard, so even asking her was useless.

Just as Chen Wanrong was contemplating how to make Lu Chen fall for her, a disciple of the Mysterious Moon Palace knocked on the door saying, “Palace Master, there is new movement at the North Prince Mansion.”

Chen Wanrong said coldly, “Come in.”

The next moment, a disciple of the Mysterious Moon Palace entered the private room.

Chen Wanrong asked, “What’s the matter?”

The disciple hurriedly reported, “North Prince went to North Land, saying that he is there to resist the southward advance of the North Fre King, and he has also dispatched a Red Ribbon Messenger to seek aid from the Imperial Court. It seems another war is about to break out in North City soon.”

Upon hearing this first report, both Lin Wanyun and Chen Wanrong were momentarily startled.

Chen Wanrong had just been pondering how to seduce Lu Chen, but in the next moment, he had run off to North Land.

Wouldn’t this mean that a lot of time would be wasted?

Or should she also follow him to North Land?

If that were the case, her intentions would be too apparent, and Lu Chen would surely become even more cautious of her.

The biggest issue in getting Lu Chen to develop feelings for her now was his strong vigilance; he constantly guarded himself against her, which prevented her from finding a way into his heart.

If she did anything unnecessary, it would just make Lu Chen even more wary of her.

So she definitely couldn’t follow him to North Land.

However…

She feared that she would have to wait a long time in North City before she could use the Love Worm on Lu Chen.

She could wait, but having been away from Mysterious Moon Palace for so long, the Elders there would surely be even more dissatisfied with her.

With this in mind, Chen Wanrong eventually came up with a plan.

“Madam Lin, you continue to stay in North City. I will return to Mysterious Moon Palace for a while.”

Hearing Chen Wanrong’s decision, Lin Wanyun said, “Mhm, alright.”

Lin Wanyun agreed with Chen Wanrong’s decision to return to Mysterious Moon Palace first; after all, they had been out for several months and had made no progress whatsoever.

Initially, they had misjudged Lu Chen’s character, thinking that as long as they got close to Lu Chen, he would fall for Chen Wanrong.

But they hadn’t foreseen that although Lu Chen was fond of beauty, he was a man who was very cautious and careful; they had wasted so much time in North City for nothing.

In the end, Chen Wanrong, along with some disciples from Mysterious Moon Palace, headed straight back to the Palace, leaving Lin Wanyun to continue serving as Guard Commander in Lu Chen’s inner court.

A few days later.

In Great Sum, Capital City.

On the way to Xuanzheng Hall, the ministers whispered among themselves, discussing the matter of the war with Great Wu.

At that moment, Assistant Minister Wang Chengshuo of the Ministry of War and a group of people from the Eighth Prince Faction approached Prince Lu Shuyun, discussing something in hushed tones.

An official whispered, “The battlefront is tense, and it’s about time His Majesty’s fifty thousand Heavy Cavalry were deployed.”

Another official said, “Now that Great Wu has declared war on Great Sum and other dynasties are eyeing Great Sum with predatory intent, if we do not strike a resounding victory now to intimidate our enemies, our future plight will likely be even worse.”

Then Assistant Minister Wang Chengshuo of the Ministry of War spoke up, “I will suggest to His Majesty that we directly deploy the fifty thousand Heavy Cavalry from North City to the front line to alleviate the pressure on the Imperial Army.”

Hearing the topics of discussion among the officials, Lu Shuyun could not help but slightly curl his lips upward, thinking that this war could not have come at a more opportune time.

He had been discussing with the Wang Family how to dissolve these fifty thousand Heavy Cavalry for some time but hadn’t found the opportunity; unexpectedly, the chance had now presented itself so swiftly.
