Chapter 990 Arrangement 1: Back to the Capital
Anlan's heart pounded, as if a suffocating feeling spread throughout her body.
She hurriedly jumped into the bathtub and kept washing her body to relax.
When she finished washing up and returned to the front, Chu Chen was nowhere to be seen.
She slowly sat down, then removed all her clothes, muttering something under her breath.
"Young master, there's one more thing I haven't mentioned: I want to become someone you can find pleasing!"
After saying this, a single tear fell...
At that moment, Chu Chen was unaware of all this. He was on his way back to Hyde City after a short while.
Back in the room, after locking the doors and windows, I slipped into the space.
He had a feeling that he was getting closer and closer to becoming a saint.
So, is his never-before-seen opponent also about to become a saint, or has he already become a saint?
A sense of crisis arises spontaneously.
So, he wanted to go and see how strong Li Qinglian and the others were now.
If my strength doesn't improve, things will get complicated if Sha Jinyun leads his army into my space.
After entering the space, Chu Chen first went to the location where Chen Qingxuan was.
Watching him calmly drink water and improve his cultivation like a true Taoist priest, Chu Chen smiled slightly and headed straight for the villa area.
Upon entering the villa area, I noticed the difference from usual.
Surprisingly, many artificial humans have appeared in the villa area.
They were working in their respective positions, sweeping, cooking, washing clothes, just like servants in the ancient world outside.
They were dressed in ordinary clothes, and each of them seemed very serious.
Just as Chu Chen was about to go up and ask, a large waterwheel carrying a load of water headed straight for the back mountain.
On the hill behind, a huge water tower stands tall. When the water truck arrives, it pours water directly into the water tower.
"What's going on?"
Chu Chen stepped forward and stopped an android who was sweeping the floor, asking a question.
“Young master, everyone inside is improving their strength, so we are hired by Li Qinglian to provide basic living services for the villa area.”
Hearing the word "hire," Chu Chen finally felt relieved.
When I was preparing to go out and train to improve my strength, I did instruct them to protect the villa area.
It seems that Li Qinglian noticed everyone was focused on improving their strength and didn't have much time to manage the villa area, so she went out and hired these people.
In other words, Li Qinglian and the others are still unaware of the identities of these artificial humans.
Well, that's alright. From my rebirth until now, there are still many secrets about me that others don't know.
The less you expose yourself, the safer you are.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen turned around and prepared to leave, but after taking a few steps outside, he turned back.
Since we're already here, there are some things that should be taken care of, so we should take the time to maintain them.
"My husband, you're back?"
"Indeed, Qinglian's strength has improved so quickly, which has put my mind at ease."
"It's all thanks to the water that my husband provided that everyone has experienced the power of strength. Now everyone is scrambling to improve their own strength so that they won't hold my husband back when danger comes."
Looking at the sensible Li Qinglian in front of him, Chu Chen couldn't help but think of the thin, small girl covered in injuries when he first transmigrated here.
Now, he has grown into a person who can stand on his own.
Leading these people in the villa area, who have been so obedient in enduring the tedious process of advancement, they certainly deserve a reward.
"You've all worked hard, especially you. It's not easy being the head of the household. Once I've finished dealing with all this mess, I'll take you out for a few days of fun. Come to think of it, it's been a long, long time since I've taken you out by myself."
In fact, going back to the beginning, Li Qinglian was the one in Chu Chen's heart.
Putting everything else aside, this woman, though seemingly ordinary compared to those powerful people, is the greatest in Chu Chen's heart.
"Husband, what are you saying? Qinglian is fine, don't worry about her. Husband, go and do your work!"
"Then I'll go?"
Chu Chen grinned after hearing this, then looked at her with a lewd expression.
"Um... how about you wait half an hour before leaving, my lord?"
"It's not impossible..."
Half an hour later, Chu Chen stepped out of the villa area gate feeling refreshed, then walked into the crowd and disappeared from the space in a flash.
As dawn broke, Chu Chen got out of bed and, without telling anyone, used a clever trick to save Sanxiu before heading straight for the capital.
Everything is ready; let time take its course.
Perhaps Huangfu Xiong is secretly investigating him, or perhaps those powerful families under the emperor's authority already hate him to the core.
When a person is in the eye of the storm, they can truly feel its power when it arrives.
Don't underestimate these ordinary people.
There are many ways to kill, but often the one that requires the least skill is the one that uses force.
As expected, after Chu Chen returned to the capital, as soon as he entered the mansion, Eunuch Zhou had two eunuchs carry two baskets of visiting cards and place them in front of Chu Chen.
"This is?"
"Your Highness, the box on the left contains the visiting cards of those aristocratic families and wealthy individuals who have some connection with our royal family."
"The box on the right contains the visiting cards from the noble families and merchants in each city who request an audience."
Chu Chen smiled slightly after hearing this, thinking to himself that he had expected them to come, but he didn't expect them to come so quickly.
So he picked one out of the basket on the right, and without even looking at it, said to Zhou Gonggong.
"Go outside and find a quiet house, let's meet this family!"
"Won't the Prince Consort take a look?"
"Hehe, reading them one by one, that would take forever, it's too tiring."
"Why do we earn so much money? It's so we don't have to work so hard!"
After saying that, Chu Chen went straight to the palace of Ninth Princess Huangfu Caiyun to relieve his fatigue from the long journey back to the capital.
After taking a good bath and eating something, Chu Chen followed Eunuch Zhou into the carriage.
They headed toward the house he had just prepared.
A large tea table was set up, and Chu Chen was brewing tea by himself, using spring water that he had brought from his spatial storage.
At this moment, a very wealthy-looking man was called out of the inn and hurriedly headed towards the house.
"Father-in-law, are you saying that I'm the first person the Prince Consort wants to see?"
