Chapter 1012: Chapter 1010: No, It Could Lead to Pregnancy
“They think they’re more legitimate than the imperial uncle,” he said, “but when it comes to being an emperor, capability is far more important than legitimacy. Besides, strictly speaking, it is the imperial uncle who is legitimate. My brothers have been princes for so many years; they should be content. Now they should behave themselves. The imperial uncle has always been kind to kin and won’t harm them!”
And yet, his brothers, as if provoked, felt it to be a disgrace to go from being princes to the sons of a prince, one and all concocting some plot, forcing Chu Yihan to take action against them.
Why don’t they learn from him?
A salted fish, isn’t he content?
“If only all the princes were as clear-headed as you, the emperor could spare himself some headaches!”
Lin Sisi sighed softly, finding the man before her even more precious and noble.
“I’m simply lazy,” he retorted. “I like you, and want to marry you. You go off to war, while I write books and establish a legacy. Both of us doing what we like—isn’t that wonderful? When you return from the campaign, we can visit the Xiao family with cousin, enjoying the misty rain of Jiangnan along the way. How beautiful that would be! Why suffer through a battle for power where it’s a fight to the death?”
Chu Jinling shook his head. Since he was young, he had no interest in wielding power.
As a prince, he was destined to never worry about food and clothing. With his mother, a carefree fairy-like figure, raising him, he understood from an early age that freedom was the most precious treasure.
The life he described was something not even Chu Yihan, the Emperor, might enjoy!
Lin Sisi nodded, “That’s true, but… I wonder if the Great Empress Dowager of the Xiao family would agree to our marriage.”
At this point, she became somewhat worried.
Lin Sisi cupped Chu Jinling’s face, starting to knead it playfully.
With his face being pinched, Chu Jinling spoke in a strange voice, yet he wasn’t annoyed, “My mother shouldn’t have any objections! Marrying the great general would be quite the upward match for me!”
“Hehe, a prince marrying a general is indeed a fine story. Jinling, when I campaign against Qi State, I’ll bring back spoils of war for you. Present them to your mother to win her over. Maybe seeing my sincerity, she’ll agree,” Lin Sisi said with a radiant smile, gazing down at Chu Jinling, her eyes filled with lovely reflections.
Chu Jinling knew that the Great Empress Dowager wouldn’t agree so easily, but he still smiled and replied, “Alright, I’ll sing your praises before my mother. She’s bound to be happy!”
“What an obedient one!”
Delighted, Lin Sisi cradled Chu Jinling’s face and gave him a kiss.
Feeling the softness and delicacy of his skin, she couldn’t help but plant several more kisses. As she kissed him, a heat began to rise within her.
She began to undress Chu Jinling.
Caught off guard, Chu Jinling’s robe was pulled off, and he covered his chest with his hands, “Sisi, in the middle of the night, what are you trying to do?”
Lin Sisi licked her lips, looking at his rosy lips and white teeth, feeling a surge of warmth within her, “At night, we should do what’s meant for the night!”
After all, it wasn’t their first time!
Previously, when Chu Jinling secretly followed to the army camp, they would engage in intimate moments.
Now that she was about to set off on a campaign, and would be away for so long, naturally, she craved Chu Jinling’s body. With such a wonderful night, she didn’t want to waste it.
Chu Jinling’s handsome face turned slightly red, his lips and teeth ever so white, as he bit his lip with difficulty, “Sisi, you’re about to go on a campaign. Let’s not do this. What if you get pregnant? That’s a major taboo in the army. The imperial uncle will kill me!”
To send out a general who ended up pregnant—Chu Jinling imagined the strict discipline the imperial uncle maintained with his troops and felt he might be beaten to a pulp!
