Li Chen's words caused Jin Luyao to shiver. She subconsciously said, "There is nothing private between Lu Yao and Your Highness."

"Didn't you"

Li Chen countered with a question, then without waiting for Jin Lu Yao's answer, he raised his hand and tilted her chin up, "Look at me."

Jin Luyao had nowhere to escape, so she could only meet Li Chen's gaze.

In Jin Luyao's bright eyes, Li Chen saw nothing but grievance and complexity.

"Your Highness, why would you demean yourself so"

Jin Luyao blushed with anger and turned her head away, shaking off Li Chen's hand. "I'm furious!"

"When did I ever mistreat you"

Although Li Chen said so, his hands and feet were not clean.

He grabbed Jin Luyao's wrist and pulled her into his arms.

Taken by surprise, Jin Luyao had no strength to resist and was immediately encircled by Li Chen's arms.

Instinctively struggling, Leon washed ah, discovering his strength was completely unable to resist Li Chen's golden glow. Luo Yao said angrily: "Isn't this just humiliating"

"I've made too many mistakes before, I can't afford to make another one!"

"Your Highness, please have some respect!!!"

Seeing Jin Luyao's sharp and angry words, Li Chen said with interest: "People always say that men are realistic and don't recognize people after going to bed. Now it seems that women are even more realistic than men when they get realistic."

"Well, now that the imperial army is mobilized and it's a foregone conclusion, you seem fearless"

Jin Luyao, hearing this, felt even more shame and anger. She retorted, “Only you would threaten someone. I have never had such thoughts. Every time I ended up yielding to you, it was because you forced me. I never considered using myself to get the court to send troops!”

"You say what you say."

Li Chen crossed his hands over Jin Luyao's abdomen, resting his chin on her shoulder and pressing his face against her warm, smooth cheek. He said, "It's a done deal anyway, what's the point of explaining it any further"

Jin Luyao felt incredibly wronged. Her eyes reddened as she said, "What are you doing How will I ever get married after this"

"Get married"

Li Chen expressed surprise, "You still want to get married"

"This palace will send a decree. Your father would probably be the first to tie you up and bring you before this palace. Do you still want to get married Who in the world would dare to marry you"

Li Chen's words undoubtedly enraged Jin Lu Yao.

She angrily retorted, "Besides using your status and power to coerce me, what else can you do"

"That's enough."

Li Chen's tone became slightly cold as he said, "Who am I, and who are you"

"I am the Crown Prince of the Qin Empire. I am too busy ruling a vast empire to be playing love games with you!"

"But you, Xian Chao Princess, were about to become the daughter of a fallen nation. Your country was on the verge of ruin, yet you still had the heart to think about romance"

"It was precisely my status and power that saved both you and Xianchao from imminent death."

Jin Luyao bit her lip tightly, she didn't know where she got the strength from, but she pushed away Li Chen's arm with all her might.

Turning around to face Li Chen, Jin Luyao took two steps back and said expressionlessly, “Your Highness, Luyao should be departing.”

Li Chen stood and looked at Jin Luyao, without pushing his advantage further.

Then, this palace wishes you a smooth journey.” Li Chen said lightly.

Jin Lu Yao's body trembled, but she still managed to maintain her composure. She bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

With a casual wave, someone came riding on horseback to Li Chen's side from afar.

Having mounted his horse, Li Chen said: "This palace has already given Su Pingbei orders. The Xianchao may fall, but the Xianchao royal family must not be exterminated. No matter when or where, do not leave the protection of the Qin army."

"I've done everything I could. The rest is up to you."

After finishing his words, Li Chen turned his horse's head, lightly nudged its belly, and rode away.Chapter 731: Ignorant of their Own MortalityFacing Zhou Ping'an's explanation, Li Chen remained noncommittal."Get out."
