Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife

When Lu Chen was still in the North Country, he gave each of his women a wooden doll in his likeness.

The craftsmen of the North Prince Mansion were very skilled, and the carved dolls closely resembled him. At the time, Chu Yuqin had even warned Lu Chen that giving away dolls could lead to some people using them to curse him.

Lu Chen never saw anyone curse him using a doll in his likeness, but now he did see someone using a doll to do something bad.

Seeing the door of the sleeping chambers suddenly flung open, Xue Linglong's soul nearly flew out in fright, and she hurriedly stuffed the doll in her hand under the covers.

Since Lu Chen entered the Capital city, he had been too busy to visit Xue Linglong, mainly because Linglong Palace was quite far from the Imperial Study Room, and he slept in his own chambers.

He occasionally visited Chen Wanrong, but most of the time, he simply slept while embracing Bai Qingqing, who was not only the maidservant attending to him but also his personal body pillow.

This was Lu Chen's first time at Linglong Palace, and on his first visit here, he noticed Xue Linglong, that bewitching woman, using his doll to commit misdeeds.

Lu Chen thought to himself that he should have known better than to let the craftsman make his doll so exquisitely, so smooth.

At that moment, Lu Chen glared at Xue Linglong and scolded her, "Sorceress, you have quite the nerve, using my doll for such acts. Are you trying to suffocate me with the Witch Worm Skill?"

On hearing this, Xue Linglong immediately panicked, quickly kneeling on the bed and saying, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, I will never dare to do it again."

Xue Linglong, with her delicate and exquisite figure, knelt on the bed, looking even more alluring.

Although Xue Linglong's expression of fear was somewhat exaggerated, with an element of performance, she was indeed quite afraid inside.

After all, using Lu Chen's doll in that way, in ancient times, entire families were often exterminated due to the Witch Worm Skill.

Those who practiced the Witch Worm Skill used straw men, but she had used Lu Chen's doll, and such an exquisite one at that, highly resembling Lu Chen.

No one knew if Lu Chen would be offended by such acts, and if he truly got angry, she might be tortured to death. Find more chapters on empire

Thinking of this, Xue Linglong's delicate body trembled slightly.

Xue Linglong felt a small wave of emotions in her heart.

This heartless man, since he entered the Capital city, had been so busy every day, never once looking for her.

And yet he came today of all days.

Wasn't he very busy?

What was he doing at Linglong Palace!

And just today, when she used the doll to commit a bad act for the first time, he happened to walk in on her.

At this time, Lu Chen snorted coldly, "You know you were wrong?"

"Would a sorceress like you recognize your own faults?"

"We'll see how I deal with you tonight!"

With these words, Lu Chen's Shadow Shifting technique brought him to the bedside in an instant. Before Xue Linglong could say anything further, she was pressed down by Lu Chen.

Soon, the candlelight in Linglong Palace flickered, and Xue Linglong's voice could be heard continuously.

"Your Majesty..."

"Mmm, mmm..."

"Master, I will never dare again..."

"Ying, ying, ying..."

…

At this time, Bai Qingqing silently closed the door of Linglong Palace and then went to a side chamber to sit and rest.

As the sky gradually brightened, Xue Linglong finally lost her strength, her entire being thoroughly wilted, leaving her at the mercy of Lu Chen's punishment.

Seeing the first rays of sunlight from dawn shining through the window, Lu Chen realized it was already morning.

Although he hadn't slept all night, Lu Chen felt refreshed. Since entering the Capital city, he had been busy dealing with various matters every day and had hardly had the chance to release his suppressed emotions like this.

Now a Pseudo Celestial, not sleeping for one night would not cause any significant problems to his body.

Lu Chen glanced at the enchantress beside him and then spoke, "This time I will spare you, but if I see you using my effigy for filthy deeds again, I will punish you even more severely."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Xue Linglong not only refrained from pleading for mercy but instead responded wearily but stubbornly, "I am but Your Majesty's plaything; if it comes to it, just play me to death."

With a chuckle, Lu Chen then said, "It seems you aren't convinced, are you?"

Xue Linglong's body shook slightly as she hurriedly responded, "I am convinced, utterly convinced. It is an honor to be played with by Your Majesty."

Lu Chen continued, "In recent days, I received intelligence that my brother Yi, in order to forge ties with the Taiyin Divine Sect, is sending people everywhere to find you."

Upon hearing this, Xue Linglong was startled, and she then turned to look at Lu Chen beside her, "No wonder you thought of coming to me last night."

"How was it? Is another man's woman to your liking?"

Having been with Lu Chen for some time, Xue Linglong knew him well enough; this man loved playing identity games the most.

Lu Chen must have come to her yesterday because he thought of Lu Yi looking for her, and his peculiar fondness was awakened, leading him to come over to deal with her.

It just so happened that he caught her misusing his wooden doll, giving him an excuse to ravish her.

On hearing Xue Linglong's words, Lu Chen raised her chin with his hand, gazing into her bewitching and captivating face, "Indeed, not bad."

At that moment, Xue Linglong said, "Daylight has broken, and Your Majesty still has many affairs of state to manage, so I won't keep you."
