Chapter 632: Why not just tie up Tuoba Zhen and send him to May Tian Ce?

~4 min read 675 words

Miss Lian Xing Xing's excellent performance gave Lu Mumu, who had always been competitive, a sense of frustration, as if she had fallen behind on an important track.

But she was a smart person after all; if she didn't know, couldn't she learn?

She put down her status as a heaven-favored talent and humbly sought advice from the two mature and charming "sisters," Tuoba Anyu and Ren Ling, who clearly understood the way.

Thus, a small, silent "palace battle" quietly unfolded in this small courtyard.

Miss Lian Xing Xing enjoyed being able to suppress this heaven-favored girl from the hidden sect in this regard. Seeing Lu Mumu start to learn, she didn't want to be outdone and became even more refined.

The two seemed to be competing in secret, racking their brains on how to make Li Chen more comfortable and happy.

Today Miss Lian Xing Xing learned a new snack, and tomorrow Lu Mumu asked for a new massage technique.

This "internal involution" of theirs directly caused Li Chen's daily life treatment to rise straight up, living an extremely moist and happy life.

He was also happy to enjoy it, often closing his eyes, feeling the service of two different styles but equally meticulous, secretly laughing in his heart—this was the life an emperor should have.

It was fortunate that Ling Jueyun didn't see this scene, otherwise he would be furious; the Junior Sister he loved but couldn't have was actually competing for favor here?

The next day, Li Chen arrived at the military camp refreshed.

Although he had asked for a day off yesterday, which was within the military regulations, given his status, naturally no one dared not to approve it.

Since he was serving as a commandant here, he led by example and checked in on time.

As soon as Feng Shuo saw Li Chen, his already short stature wished it could bend to the ground.

He used to dare to call him "Brother Cheng" with a smile, but now he called him "Master Cheng" respectfully. His every move was cautious, and he didn't even dare to breathe loudly, clearly having guessed something.

Li Chen looked at his appearance and found it funny, patting his thick shoulder: "Fatty, why are you so guilty? Did you do something wrong behind my back?"

Feng Shuo was startled and hurriedly waved his hands, the fat on his face shaking three times:

"Master! You've wronged this little one to death! This little one swears to heaven that I have always been law-abiding and conscientious! I walk around even when I pass an ant, afraid of stepping on it and violating discipline!"

Li Chen was amused by his exaggerated statement and stopped teasing him, ordering: "Go, call Xu Kequan over; I want to see how he has been handling his errands lately."

Not long after, Xu Kequan came to report with a dragon-like gait.

His face carried a hint of irrepressible excitement and fighting spirit: "Commandant! Following your instructions, this subordinate recently led troops to take the initiative and wiped out three scouting teams of the Daluo border army that crossed the border to provoke us, beheading more than thirty! The conflict at the border, which had originally calmed down slightly, has immediately escalated. The North has now entered a state of emergency combat!"

He paused and added: "Grand General Han Wu sent someone to question this subordinate about why I unilaterally expanded the situation."

Li Chen raised his eyebrows: "What did you say?"

Xu Kequan grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "This subordinate said directly that you told me to do it. The other side was silent for a moment, and then replied, 'Understood, we will adjust our strategic policy immediately and cooperate with the action.'"

Xu Kequan's tone carried a bit of schadenfreude and eagerness to try.

As the commander of the Northern Army, Han Wu certainly wouldn't take the initiative to cause trouble, prioritizing stability.

After all, he didn't dare to start a war without authorization; that would be a matter of accountability.
