Bab 462: Chapter 278: This Prince Fell for Miss Qian at First Sight_1

Upon hearing Wu Junwan's words, Lu Chen smiled faintly before responding, "Princess Junwan, you must have misunderstood; I have never coveted that position in the Capital City."

"My father, the Sum Emperor, loves his subjects as his own children and is benevolent and wise. He is especially caring and considerate towards his own children, and I am his proudest child. How could I possibly commit such disloyal acts of seeking power and usurping the throne?"

After listening to Lu Chen's words, Wu Junwan chuckled softly and then said, "North Prince really knows how to jest. If your relationship with the Sum Emperor is truly as harmonious as you describe, the court of the Great Sum wouldn't have stationed troops in Qi Country, nor would North Country have dispatched a hundred thousand troops to the border of Qi Country to face off against the army of the Da Yue Dynasty."
