That is to say, when Lu Chen was still in the prime of his youth, the three of them would have already become gray and old.
The thought that Lu Chen might lose interest in them once they grew old filled Mu Zixuan’s heart with immense anxiety.
She had always been intoxicated by Lu Chen’s tender affections, believing that she had married a good Prince and that life could go on like this forever. Now, she realized that although Lu Chen was so good to her at the moment, there might come a day when he would disdain them for growing old.
Even if Lu Chen did not disdain them, the sight of their gray hair and aged appearance against Lu Chen’s youthful vigor was distressing, and they would be unable to continue attending to him, which would undoubtedly give rise to all sorts of thoughts in their hearts.
Coming back to her senses, Mu Zixuan said, “Prince, 1 understand what you mean. I shall start practicing martial arts from tomorrow on.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen chuckled and then stroked Mu Zixuan’s hair, saying, “My beloved doesn’t need to deliberately practice martial arts, I will teach you Immortal Law, and you can cultivate with me.”
Mu Zixuan was startled for a moment, before saying, “Prince, Immortal Law is not to be imparted lightly. If the Immortals find out that you have taught it to us, it could very well sever your chance for Immortality.”
In the eyes of the world, the chance for Immortality was sacred, and imparting the Immortals’ knowledge to someone without their consent was a desecration that could provoke the Immortals’ punishment. Mu Zixuan was very worried that Lu Chen might be punished by the Immortals as well.
Lu Chen replied, “Beloved, don’t worry, the Immortal fate I’ve received is different from the ordinary ones. Even if 1 teach you the Immortal Law, the Immortals will not reprimand me; on the contrary, they would appreciate my efforts in passing down the Immortal Law.”
With Lu Chen having said this, Mu Zixuan felt relieved, “I understand; I will definitely learn the Immortal Law that you pass down to me with great effort.”
With that, Mu Zixuan tied Lu Chen’s belt.
After she finished dressing him, Mu Zixuan continued, “Prince, you should go to Xiaoxiao and the others now; they must be waiting for you in their room.”
Lu Chen smiled faintly, then embraced Mu Zixuan and kissed her before saying, “I will come to accompany you tonight.”
Mu Zixuan’s cheeks flushed as she softly uttered a “mm-hmm.”
Immediately after, Lu Chen turned and left Mu Zixuan’s room.
At this very moment,
Zhou Xiaoxiao was in Zhou Youyou’s room, with Zhou Youyou sitting in front of a copper mirror, and Zhou Xiaoxiao behind her, helping to put up her hair.
Zhou Youyou then asked, “Sister, do you think the Prince will come to our place during the day?”
Zhou Xiaoxiao replied, “He probably will.”
Zhou Youyou said, “He should be off to accompany Sister Mu.”
As Zhou Xiaoxiao arranged Youyou’s hair, she said, “Youyou, you know quite well how formidable the Prince is; how could Sister Mu possibly keep the Prince by her side the whole time?”
Hearing Zhou Xiaoxiao’s words, Zhou Youyou’s delicate body couldn’t help but tremble involuntarily.
She remembered the time when Mu Zixuan and Zhou Xiaoxiao were pregnant, during which the Prince came to dote on her daily, making her feel as if her body wasn’t her own anymore.
While the two sisters were talking, the door to the room was pushed open.
Seeing Lu Chen enter, the two sisters quickly stood up straight and said, “We’ve seen the Prince.”
Lu Chen, wearing a smile, asked, “Ladies, why do 1 hear that someone was discussing me just now?”
“Could you be talking behind my back?”
Zhou Xiaoxiao hurriedly said, “Prince, I wouldn’t dare.”
Lu Chen closed the door behind him and then approached Zhou Xiaoxiao, saying, “What won’t you dare? You’ve talked behind my back not once or twice before, it seems that a good punishment is in order indeed.”
Hearing Lu Chen’s words, both sisters’ faces instantly turned red; Lu Chen wasn’t truly accusing them of anything, he simply sought an excuse to “punish” them.
Zhou Xiaoxiao then said, “1 am willing to accept the Prince’s punishment, as long as the Prince is willing to forgive me.”
Lu Chen’s gaze fell on the cute and petite Zhou Youyou, who blushed and said, “I know I was wrong, I shouldn’t have talked about the Prince behind his back. I am also willing to accept the Prince’s punishment.”
Lu Chen immediately embraced both women, “Then my punishment begins now.”
The two women subsequently fell silent, accepting Lu Chen’s punishment..
