Chapter 5: Breaking the spell after three years

It’s Concubine Duan Lin Yixin again!
Lu Changjing looked at Cao Wenzhen, waiting for his decision.

But he saw Cao Wenzhen frowning and obviously hesitating.

"Why, Brother Emperor, you're not going to open the door for me today? I've been here many times. If you don't open the door, I'm going to force my way in!"

Concubine Duan outside was a little angry.

Thinking of the other party's father, King Heluo, Cao Wenzheng reluctantly agreed: "Let her in. If she doesn't come in, I'm afraid she will doubt your identity even more."

"Xuan..."

As he spoke, without waiting for Lu Changjing to react, he summoned Concubine Duan Lin Yixin to come in.

Lu Changjing quickly sat up straight and looked towards the door.

Soon, Lin Yixin, wearing an orange palace dress, walked in from outside. There was still a hint of annoyance on her delicate and bright face, but it also added a bit of cuteness and coquettishness.

Her skin is whiter than snow, her eyes are like a pool of clear water, and when she looks around, she has an elegant and noble temperament that captivates people and makes them feel ashamed of themselves and dare not disrespect her.

But there is something enchanting and charming about her cold, arrogant and agile appearance that makes people unable to help but be obsessed with her.

As soon as she saw Lu Changjing, Lin Yixin strode over and came directly in front of him: "Brother Emperor, I have looked for you so many times, why don't you see me?"

"This..." Lu Changjing hesitated for a moment: "I have been busy with government affairs these days, and I have to take time out for cultivation, so I don't have any free time at all."

Lin Yixin said angrily: "But you met with Imperial Noble Consort Rong Xiyao and Noble Consort Tang Qingyi yesterday, why did you shut yourself in and not see me when you got here?"

"After they left, I went to the secret room to practice, so I didn't know what was going on outside." Lu Changjing thought for a moment and evaded the question.

Cao Wenzheng quickly added: "Empress Duan, your Majesty is right. As soon as Concubine Tang left, your Majesty went to the secret room at the back to practice. He didn't know that Empress Duan was coming."

"If that's the case, then let's just let this matter go." Lin Yixin pouted, not knowing whether she believed it or not: "I'll tell you about what happened yesterday again."

"Brother Emperor, you should have heard that the surrounding countries are mocking our Daning Dynasty for having no successors because you have no offspring. So, brother Emperor, please think about the fate of our country and break the Cang Yang Technique as soon as possible, favor the concubines as soon as possible, and expand our Daning royal family."

"This..." Lu Changjing didn't know whether he should agree or not, and looked at Cao Wenzhen.

Lin Yixin noticed this scene and frowned: "Emperor brother, people are asking you, what are you looking at Cao Zongguan doing?"

"Haha, Manager Cao is a grandmaster. I would like to ask him when he can perfect the art of hiding Yang. Then I can consummate my marriage." Lu Changjing had sweat on his forehead and finally came up with an explanation.

Lin Yixin looked towards Cao Wenzheng and said, "Butler Cao, what do you say?"

"This... this..." Cao Wen Zheng didn't know how to answer, because he didn't know when Ning Zhongyu would be able to perfect the Hidden Yang Technique: "I'm not sure either, it still depends on Your Majesty."

Lin Yixin was a little angry, so she went straight to Lu Changjing, wanting to pin him down and force him to tell the truth like before.

But thinking that the other party was already the emperor, he did not do so.

She just widened her bright eyes and stared at Lu Changjing fiercely: "Brother Emperor, if you keep pushing it back and forth, I will let all the sisters take you to the bedroom to consummate the marriage."

Lu Changjing's eyes lit up and his heart began to beat violently.

Not to mention other concubines, just the three people, Rong Xiyao, Tang Qingyi and Lin Yixin, were enough to scare him to death.

"Answer quickly!" Before Lu Changjing could think more, Cao Wenzhen poured a bucket of cold water on him.

Looking at the fierce Lin Yixin, Lu Changjing could only bite the bullet and say, "Maybe... maybe... possibly..."

"How long?" Lin Yixin bared her white teeth.

Lu Changjing laughed dryly: "Three years?"

He carefully glanced at Cao Wen Zheng next to him and found that his brows were furrowed.

"What if the practice is not complete in three years?" Lin Yixin asked.

Thinking of Cao Wenzheng's darkened face, Lu Changjing quickly added: "Then let's do it for another three years."

"Emperor brother!" Lin Yixin almost jumped up in anger. "No, three years at most, no more than three years. If you haven't completed the Cang Yang Technique in three years, then you must consummate the marriage with us and give birth to a prince or princess as soon as possible."

Lu Changjing didn't dare to make a decision and looked at Cao Wenzhen again.

"Your Majesty, this is your family affair and I cannot make the decision." Without waiting for Lin Yixin to speak, Cao Wen Zheng hurriedly declined.

At the same time, he used his inner strength to transmit his voice: "Let's deal with it this way for now, and wait until His Majesty comes out of confinement, otherwise more concubines will come looking for us."

What Lin Yixin said has indeed spread widely in surrounding countries.

If this were not the case, the Imperial Noble Consort, Noble Consort, Concubine Duan, etc. would not have come one after another. It can only be said that the timing of Lu Changjing's time travel was too coincidental.

After getting a positive answer, he looked at Lin Yixin, whose face was full of expectation, hoping to be favored by him.

Lu Changjing could only grit his teeth and agree: "Okay."

"Brother Emperor, this is what you said. I will spread the news throughout the palace later. Then everyone will know. You can't cheat anymore in three years."

Lin Yixin's pretty face, like a delicate flower, was immediately filled with smiles. She jumped up happily, turned around and ran outside.

"Brother Emperor, in three years, you must be the first to go to my bedroom, or I will cause trouble."

Listening to Lin Yixin's lively and moving voice, Lu Changjing was speechless on his face, but smiling in his heart. He hoped that His Majesty Ning Zhongyu would not come out in three years.

In this way, he would be able to consummate the marriage with all the concubines on his behalf.

"When your majesty's injury gets better, we will pass on this news."

Cao Wenzhen looked helpless, obviously not as happy as Lu Changjing.

As if he had sensed Lu Changjing's thoughts, he casually gave him another internal force, which made Lu Changjing feel pain all over: "Don't have any sweet dreams, don't even think about it. Even if His Majesty doesn't come out of seclusion in three years, you can't go and consummate the marriage with the concubines."

"Lord Cao has misunderstood. I didn't have any random thoughts." Lu Changjing explained.

Cao Wenzheng nodded and said, "Just read the memorials here and learn more about the affairs of the harem and the court, so as to avoid any trouble later."

"What just happened will soon spread throughout the court and the country, so we have to plan carefully and try our best not to be taken advantage of by those with ulterior motives. I have locked the door to the imperial study from the outside, and you must also lock it from the inside, and do not allow anyone else to see you."

Lu Changjing agreed, and after Cao Wenzhen left, he immediately walked to the bookshelf where the Cang Yang Shu was placed and took down this top-level divine art.
