After hearing Mu Zixuan's voice, Chu Yuqin, whose brain was already confused and obsessed, suddenly woke up.

She quickly pushed Lu Chen hard and said anxiously: "Chen'er, let go of Auntie, Zixuan is coming in!"

Lu Chen felt like crying but had no tears left.

My good princess, when won’t you come? Why did you come at this time!

Then Lu Chen had no choice but to let go of Chu Yuqin.

However, Chu Yuqin did not run away immediately. She looked at Lu Chen and asked with concern: "Chen'er, are you feeling better now?"

Lu Chen nodded and said, "Well, it's much better. It seems that this is indeed useful."

"Aunt Chu, you must help me take care of my body regularly from now on."

Chu Yuqin said: "Can't you ask Zixuan and the others to help you?"

Lu Chen said: "Zixuan and the others are not warriors and have no inner strength, so they are useless. However, Qingci seems to have no feelings for me and cannot meet the conditions for dual cultivation."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Chu Yuqin felt that her brain was about to burn out. She quickly said: "Okay, if you feel uncomfortable in the future, just come to me. I'll go out first."

Having said this, Chu Yuqin immediately walked towards the door.

When Mu Zixuan saw Chu Yuqin opening the door, she was stunned for a moment.

Chu Yuqin quickly explained: "I checked Chen'er's body. You guys can chat while I leave first."

As soon as the words fell, Chu Yuqin ran away quickly.

Seeing Chu Yuqin's panicked back and her flushed face, Mu Zixuan instantly realized what had just happened.

She turned to look at Lu Chen and apologized: "Your Majesty, it's all my fault for disturbing your good deeds. I will definitely pay attention to this in the future."

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled slightly, and then said: "It's okay, Aunt Chu and I just chatted and didn't do anything shameful."

"By the way, my beloved concubine, why did you come to see me?"

Mu Zixuan immediately entered the study and replied: "Your Majesty..."

Mu Zixuan was about to speak when she suddenly smelled a pungent smell. As Lu Chen's princess, how could Mu Zixuan not know what this smell was.

Mu Zixuan glanced at Lu Chen speechlessly, and said that she didn't do anything shameful just now, but the smell in this room was so strong.

Seeing that Mu Zixuan suddenly stopped talking and seemed to have a strange expression on her face, Lu Chen knew that Mu Zixuan must have misunderstood, so he immediately added: "Oh, by the way, I have been here before."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Mu Zixuan realized that the smell in the room was caused by Wang Qingci.

Lu Chen continued: "My dear concubine, just tell me if you have anything to do.

Mu Zixuan immediately said: "Your Majesty, I took over the palace's business today and found that our sales of soap and perfume in the capital have dropped significantly recently. I don't know what's going on."

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. He immediately came to Mu Zixuan, then hugged Mu Zixuan's body and said, "My dear concubine, you just gave birth to a child. Why don't you take a good rest and take over the palace's business so quickly?"

Mu Zixuan said: "Your Majesty, I am idle in the palace, and Feng'er is taken care of."

In ancient times, when the wives of high-ranking officials gave birth to a child, they usually hired a wet nurse, and the palace was no exception.

After Mu Zixuan gave birth to a child, although she would also take care of the child, most of the time it would be taken care of by the palace's wet nurse and maids, and she would be more relaxed.

Mu Zixuan is a person who can't sit still. She was a little tired of staying in the palace for so long because of her pregnancy, so she took over the palace's business again just after giving birth.

Mu Zixuan continued to ask: "Your Majesty, I heard that you formed an organization to collect intelligence. Do you know what happened in the capital?"

Although the Jin Yiwei did not appear in public, Mu Zixuan often saw some Jin Yiwei in the palace these days who came to report intelligence to Lu Chen, so she also knew something about the Jin Yiwei and knew that Lu Chen had formed an intelligence agency.

Mu Zixuan just gave birth to a child, and Lu Chen would definitely not tell her about the affairs of Duke Mu's mansion.

Lu Chen said at this time: "The capital city has been relatively turbulent recently. I heard that the commanders of the Forbidden Army have changed again and again. The poor business in the palace may also be related to the current situation."

Mu Zixuan showed a thoughtful expression, and then said: "So that's it. I was telling you why the palace's business dropped so fast."

Lu Chen basically knew the reason for the decline in the palace's business, and it was definitely not just because of the turbulent current situation.

Soap, perfume, soap, these are all new things, and they sell very well in the capital and are very profitable. It is impossible for no one to covet them.

In the past, Duke Mu's Mansion was watching, so no one dared to take advantage of the shops in Bei Wangfu. But now that Duke Mu's family has been exiled, who is still afraid of Duke Mu's Mansion?

Moreover, the Northern King was far away in Beijun and could not control the capital.

Bei Wangfu's shop in the capital was probably either robbed or smashed. Some people may have started to wonder about the method of making soap and perfume.

In the future, the palace's business philosophy must change. It is best to find local businessmen or high-ranking officials to cooperate and share some of the benefits with others, otherwise they will keep thinking about it.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen said to Mu Zixuan: "My dear concubine, from now on our palace's business will not only be done in the capital, but also spread to other fiefdoms."

"When doing business in the future, try to give some gifts to the feudal lords, especially shares in the shops, otherwise others will always think about you."

Hearing Lu Chen's reminder, Mu Zixuan instantly understood what Lu Chen meant.

When doing business, you need to pay attention to the sophistication of the world, and some profits that should be given up must be given away.

Mu Zixuan then said: "I will bear in mind the prince's reminder."

Mu Zixuan suddenly thought of something at this time, and then said: "Your Majesty, there is something I don't know whether I should say."

Lu Chen smiled slightly, then scratched the bridge of her delicate nose, "If there is anything else we can't talk about between husband and wife, tell me, what is it?"

Mu Zixuan said: "Your Majesty, I have just given birth to a child, and the two sisters Xiaoxiao are also pregnant. As a result, Miss Wang is the only one to serve the Prince."

"The prince's health is getting better and better recently, and Miss Wang seems to be unable to bear it any longer. Why don't you take a concubine for the prince?"

Hearing Mu Zixuan mention Wang Qingci, Lu Chen felt a little angry. Of course, he was not angry with Mu Zixuan, but thought that Wang Qingci actually expelled his feelings from his body.

After Lu Chen pondered for a moment, he said: "Since you have said so, my beloved concubine, then I will find time to take in a concubine."

"But there don't seem to be many beautiful women in North County. As you know, my beloved, although I am a lustful person, I only like stunning women. I don't have much interest in ordinary women."

Hearing this, Mu Zixuan thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, how about this. We send out a concubine summons letter and openly summon concubines to all the families in the Great Xia Dynasty."

"When the time comes, there will definitely be many families sending their daughters to the Northern Prince's Mansion to choose concubines. As long as there are enough people, there will always be a woman who can impress the prince."
