Jin Xueyuan offered her chastity, and Li Chen helped her meet the prince.

This was the deal they had previously agreed on.

Jin Xueyuan thought Li Chen was just making excuses to bully her, but she didn't expect him to actually bring news.

She immediately pressed, "Is there news Did the Crown Prince agree to see me"

"Met the prince, didn't you"

Li Chen chuckled lightly and said, "It's easy to say, but hard to do."

Jin Xueyuan's face turned cold, and she said, "Are you teasing me again"

"Be patient, and listen to this young master finish speaking."

Li Chen was tired, leaning against the soft bed, pointing at the grapes on the small table.

Jīn Xuěyuān widened her eyes and angrily said, "What are you doing"

Li Chen said matter-of-factly, "Hey, you there."

Jin Xueyuan's silver teeth clenched tightly, wishing she could draw a knife and stab Li Chen to death right here to relieve her anger.

"You think so!"

"Even if I am down on my luck, I am still the princess of a country. What do you think I am Your slave"

"Well, that's going to be difficult. Seeing the Crown Prince won't be easy."

Li Chen smiled and said, “Having sacrificed even the most important purity, losing the watermelon already, now for such a small amount of sesame seeds to lose everything, is Princess Jin so generous and magnanimous”

Jin Xueyuan choked, gasping for breath.

She was furious with Li Chen, her teeth clenched tightly as she weighed her options. Finally, with a stern face, she picked a grape and handed it to Li Chen.

Li Chen frowned and said, "Skin it."

Jin Xueyuan stamped her foot heavily, indignant and resentful, but helplessly had to submit.

After peeling the grape, its glistening, succulent flesh trembled as it was brought to Li Chen's lips. He opened his mouth and swallowed the entire grape, including the beautiful woman's jade finger, in one gulp.

Jin Xueyuan only felt a warm and moist sensation at her fingertips. She exclaimed in surprise, withdrawing her hand, her pretty face flushed red. She didn't know if it was from shame or anger.

"You're shameless!"

Ignoring Jin Xueyuan's powerless scolding, Li Chen said, "Tomorrow, the East Palace will host a banquet to invite the envoys of Xian Chao."

This sentence made Jin Xueyuan's breath quicken suddenly.

She and the entire embassy stayed in the capital for nearly half a year, trying every means possible. Almost all the countless treasures and wealth they brought along the way were spent. Those officials of the Qin Dynasty received gifts faster than anyone else, but wanting to see the emperor or the prince remained an insurmountable obstacle, with no progress whatsoever.

Now Li Chen suddenly brought a glimmer of hope, Jin Xueyuan's first reaction was not surprise, but suspicion.

It wasn't much, it came a little too lightly.

"Really" Jin Xueyuan asked, her tone full of disbelief.

"Don't believe me" Li Chen raised an eyebrow.

Jin Xueyuan sneered, "How can I know you're not lying to me"

"It's just talk, nothing more than moving your lips. It's a matter of words, leaving no trace. No wonder you don't believe me, but what about this"

Li Chen took out a gilded invitation.

Jin Xueyuan leaned closer and saw that the invitation read: "The East Palace sets a banquet to entertain the envoys of Xian Dynasty." In the lower left corner, where the inscription was placed, was indeed the seal of Li Chen, the crown prince of the Great Qin Empire.

"If this thing is fake, even a hundred heads wouldn't be enough to chop off. Do you believe it now" Li Chen put away the invitation and smiled.

Jin Xueyuan panicked, she instinctively reached out to chase the invitation, saying, "This is my invitation, give it back!"

But the post hadn't been caught, yet with one hand he had clasped her slender wrist in his palm.

With a twist of her arm, Jin Xueyan lost her balance and fell onto him.

Li Chen looked at the delicate face of Jin Xueyan, who was so close to his chest. With the other hand, he naturally covered the girl's slender figure, lightly pressing on her waist and said cheekily, "Now, how are you going to repay this young master"Chapter 1246: Psychological Warfare
