After crossing, I was forced to hold on to my thighs and build a kingdom

Jin Chu sat aside, holding a cup of tea, smiling as she watched Princess Du pull Su Cheng'an's hand and chatter about the deep mother-son love.

"Yizhi looks thinner and darker. It seems he must have suffered a lot on this trip to the northwest!"

Princess Du's beautiful eyes looked up and down at the young man in front of her like searchlights, and she wanted to carefully check every strand of her son's hair, showing her motherly love without a doubt.

"Didn't you say you'd be back in a month? Why did you take so long this time?"

"My plans changed, so I stayed a little longer. Fortunately, I gained a lot, so it was worth the trip."

Although feeling a little uncomfortable, Su Cheng'an remained motionless and let his mother hold him and ask about his well-being.

He turned around and looked at Jinchu and said with a smile: "Jin, why don't you guess what the good news is?"

Although he looked tired, his smile was handsome and bright. In an instant, Jin Chu thought of the joy and pride of the sentence "The spring breeze is blowing, the horse's hooves are galloping, and I can see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day."

Su Cheng'an had gone there with good intentions, and with the help of Ye Jinxuan, he must have had a good talk with General Liu Zhongquan. But if that was all, he shouldn't have looked so proud.

What could have made him so excited?

As his eyes flickered, Jin Chu came up with an idea and asked with a smile, "Could it be that Floating Cloud City has returned to the hands of the Northwest Army?"

"Ajin is indeed smart!"

Su Cheng'an's smile grew even wider. He turned to Princess Du and said solemnly, "Ten days ago, my uncle assisted General Liu in leading the Northwest Army to attack Floating Cloud City at night. In this battle, the Northwest Army was unstoppable and defeated many of the Western Rong soldiers in the city.

"The enemy, defeated, could only flee the city, protecting the young prince of the Western Rong. Now, Floating Cloud City has returned to the embrace of the Great Jin, and the flag of the Northwest Army once again flies on the city walls."

"Good! Good! Good! This is a great event! Floating Cloud City, which has been lost for months in our Great Jin, has finally returned! The Northwest Army can finally protect the people again."

King Dingbei, who had arrived at some unknown time, strode in with a broad smile on his face.

He walked straight up to Su Cheng'an, looked at his son carefully, and suddenly stretched out his right hand and patted the young man's shoulder vigorously, praising him repeatedly: "Good boy, you have gained a lot this time. Your father is very happy."

"Old man, you are using so much energy, are you praising the child or punishing him?"

Princess Du, who loved her son dearly, looked at her son who was slightly bent down by his father's slap and glared at King Dingbei with dissatisfaction.

Being scolded by the princess, the old prince of Dingbei blushed slightly, and then he said, "Yizhi is not a Liuli person. He has all the skills and can definitely withstand my slap. Besides, I was just happy and lost my composure. I didn't really use much strength. If you don't believe me, ask Yizhi."

He turned and winked at his son, "Yizhi, tell your mother yourself, did I hurt you when I hit you just now?"

Prince Dingbei was really happy this time. He didn't even use the more polite words "Father" and "Mother" and just called them "Dad" and "Mom". This made Jin Chu chu chuckle. It was rare for her father-in-law to show his true nature as a soldier.

Su Cheng'an was a filial son after all. He smiled and turned to his mother, who was still glaring at his father, and gently advised, "Mother, please don't blame father. It is truly a great joy to have Floating Cloud City reclaimed. It is only natural that father is overwhelmed with joy and finds it difficult to contain himself for a while."

Princess Du feigned anger and snorted, "Alright, the deep love between you two makes me, as your mother, look like an outsider and superfluous."

King Dingbei looked at Su Cheng'an with sparkling eyes, "Yizhi is back today, and he brought back such exciting news. Don't go back to Shaoguangyuan at noon. We can have a few drinks together, father and son."

"Okay! I'm happy today, so I'll personally prepare two dishes for you and your son to go with the wine."

As she spoke, she made a move to get up and leave. Jin Chu quickly stood up and said with a smile, "Mother, Ajin isn't very good at cooking. How about I help you today? But please don't look down on my clumsy hands."

"How could that be! I am very satisfied that Jin can accompany my mother by my side."

After saying that, Princess Du took Jin Chu's hand affectionately and went out together.

Half an hour later, the dishes began to be served one by one. In the middle were two dishes cooked by Princess Du herself. The steaming heat was wrapped in an enticing aroma, tempting people to salivate.

Su Cheng'an and Jin Chu sat side by side, facing the Dingbei King and Princess Du.

Prince Dingbei lifted his glass, the rich wine swaying gently in it. His eyes were filled with satisfaction, and he spoke first: "Today's meal is to welcome Yizhi back in triumph, and secondly, to celebrate the return of Fuyun City to the hands of our Northwest Army. Come, let's raise a toast together!"

Several people raised their glasses with smiles and drank the wine to celebrate the victory.

During the banquet, King Dingbei asked some questions about the situation in the Northwest Army. Su Cheng'an answered them one by one and also shared the information he thought was useful.

The father and son chatted and drank, and by the time the banquet was over, they were both a little drunk without realizing it.

Because of the previous incident with Qingyin, Princess Du repeatedly reminded Jinchu to remember to give Su Chengan a bowl of sobering soup and stay by his side after returning.

Jin Chu agreed obediently, then supported Su Cheng'an and slowly walked towards Shaoguangyuan.

Because he drank some wine, Su Cheng'an's face was flushed, and his usually deep eyes were also a little confused.

He leaned his tall body on Jin Chu's small shoulders, smelling her unique fragrance. The corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up, and a relaxed expression appeared on his face.

"After being away for so many days, I finally see my Ah Jin!" Su Cheng'an gently rubbed Jin Chu's cheek and let out a sigh of satisfaction.

Jin Chu smiled, turned her head, and kissed the young man's cheek lightly.

"Now I can not only see him, but also kiss him!" she joked with a smile.

Su Cheng'an only felt his body getting hot, and little An'an instantly showed signs of raising his head.

He looked around and saw a few maids sweeping the floor nearby. Not far away was the gate to Shaoguang Courtyard. He could only suppress his throbbing heart and complained to Jinchu in a low voice, "Ajin, you're trying to seduce me like this. Don't stop me so easily later."

After saying that, he took the initiative to pull Jin Chu and strode forward.

Jin Chu was stunned and was dragged to Shaoguangyuan by him.

When the four Yu saw the two people cuddling each other, they all smiled knowingly.

Jin Chu subconsciously explained: "The prince is drunk."

"The maids understand. Hot water has been placed in the room, and snacks and tea have been replaced on the table. The maids are guarding the courtyard. If the Crown Prince's wife needs anything, just call for help."

Before Jinchu could say anything, Su Chengan showed a satisfied smile. He whispered to Jinchu and praised her, "Your girls are pretty good!"

Not bad, it’s really good, I’ll even tease my master secretly!

Jin Chu was slightly embarrassed and said to the others, "I understand. You can go down now!"

As soon as the door closed, Su Cheng'an took over and took charge. He bent down, picked up the girl he loved, and walked towards the bathroom at the back, whispering, "It's been a long time since we last met. Ah Jin, please help me wash off this dust!"

The wash lasted for quarter of an hour. The ground was wet and his body was slippery. Jin Chu, who had finally escaped, had no time to catch his breath before the young man who followed him pushed him back onto the bed.

"Su Cheng'an, aren't you drunk?"

Jin Chu pushed him away breathlessly. Are drunk people so crazy?

"I'm not drunk on the wine, I'm drunk on Ah Jin."

The young man looked at the girl under him with loving eyes, and spoke sweet words gently, but his movements were extremely swift, making the girl cry out.
