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

The door of the main house of Shaoguangyuan was closed until the beginning of the night.

An anxious Yu Xing whispered to Yu Cheng, "Sister Cheng, it's past dinner time now. Do you want to go call the girl?"

"What are you calling for? The prince has been away for so long, and now that he's finally back, he's definitely going to pester our girl for a while."

"If they were hungry, they would have come out on their own. Since they haven't shown up, it means they are still resting. We disturb them for no reason. Not to mention whether the young lady will be angry, the young master will also be unhappy."

At this point, Yu Cheng tapped Yu Xing's forehead and said angrily, "You're such a stubborn person! As long as the food is prepared in the small kitchen, we can just send it in when the prince and his wife summon us later."

"Young lady usually has dinner at 12:00, but today it's almost two hours late. You must be hungry..."

Yu Xing stared at the main house, muttering to herself worriedly.

"Hey, I know you're worried about the girl's health, but at least you should use your brain to think about it. Didn't we send in some snacks in the afternoon? The prince and the girl are not stupid. If they are hungry, don't they know to eat a few pieces to fill their stomachs? Besides,"

Yu Cheng looked at the innocent Yu Xing with a helpless expression on her face. She raised her hand to her forehead and said, "You, don't you think about it? They are such a loving couple. After all this hard work, how could they not lie down and rest for a while?"

"Our prince treats the girl like a precious darling, cherishing her in his palms. How could he let her go hungry? The room is quiet now, it's obvious that both of them are still asleep. Just wait outside with peace of mind!"

"Okay, I'll listen to my sister." Yu Xing nodded and went to wait aside.

About a quarter of an hour later, the door of the main house finally opened with a creak.

Yu Xing and Yu Cheng hurried to greet him, only to see that the prince was wearing a casual robe with no leather belt around his waist. He had a lazy expression and a smile on his lips, looking relaxed and at ease.

"Sir."

Su Cheng'an, with a satisfied look on his face, nodded in satisfaction to the two sensible girls and asked, "Is there any food in the kitchen?"

"There are ready-made ingredients in the small kitchen, but I don't know what the prince wants to eat?" Yu Cheng asked thoughtfully.

Su Chengan thought for a moment, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I don't mind, but your princess is hungry, so just do whatever you think is fastest!"

"Why don't you make two bowls of shredded chicken noodles? The girl likes to eat noodles on weekdays." Yu Xing took over and suggested.

Su Chengan nodded and ordered: "Okay, then go and prepare!"

After saying that, he turned back to the house and closed the door again.

Yu Xing and Yu Cheng looked at each other and went to the small kitchen with smiles on their faces.

Inside the room, Jin Chu sat at the head of the bed, feeling slightly embarrassed. She grumbled to the young man who had returned, "It's all your fault. You're always pestering me. I've even missed dinner. Tomorrow, those girls will laugh at me again!"

"Then I will go and tell them now not to use this matter to make fun of the Crown Prince's Consort tomorrow!"

Su Cheng'an, who had already walked to the bed, pretended to turn around and leave. Jin Chu was so frightened that she quickly grabbed his waist and said angrily, "Don't go! Aren't you ashamed?"

With a "puff", the young man laughed.

"Just kidding!"

Under the light, the young man's stern brows were filled with unconcealable joy. His sleeves fluttered in the wind under his wide robe and belt. He looked like an immortal who had been banished to the earth, with a noble temperament and a dashing demeanor.

Jin Chu, the girl obsessed with looks, was stunned again. She subconsciously said the catchphrase from her previous life: "Su Cheng'an, I want to give birth to a baby for you!"

"Giving birth to a monkey?"

A look of surprise flashed across Su Chengan's face. "What's the meaning of giving birth to a monkey? What does Ah Jin mean?"

Jin Chu hurriedly tried to make amends: "It's not about giving birth to a monkey, it's about giving birth to a child! You heard it wrong!"

As a soldier who has practiced martial arts for many years, Su Cheng'an is still very confident in his hearing. However, since Ajin said so, he just continued to follow her words.

"Didn't Jin say she would wait until she turned eighteen before becoming a mother? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"Brother is about to become a father, and I'm worried about you too. I've also been observing Huanyan closely during this time. She's only a year younger than me, but she looks so radiant now. As long as I take good care of her, she'll definitely be able to give birth smoothly."

"We've been married for nearly a year. If I'm still pregnant, I'm worried that my father and mother will be worried too."

As her father-in-law, King Dingbei, except for telling Jinchu to have children and give birth to a son as soon as possible when he met his parents-in-law the day after the wedding, he didn't mention anything else to her.

Although Princess Du, as the mother-in-law, did not say anything, she was a little anxious when she saw Huanyan was pregnant. Just by looking at her frequently giving her various tonics, she knew that her mother-in-law was also looking forward to news from her pregnancy soon!

Su Cheng'an is about to turn twenty-three, which is considered late for marriage in this era. If she can give birth to a healthy legitimate son, when an uprising breaks out in the northern border in the future, three generations of the family will have an heir, and it will also help the Dingbei Palace and further consolidate the morale of the army and the people.

Therefore, for both public and private reasons, she should conceive as soon as possible.

Su Cheng'an pondered for a moment, then asked solemnly, "Without considering Father, Mother, or my thoughts, does Ah Jin want a child?"

Jin Chu nodded and said frankly, "I was inconsiderate before, thinking only of myself. Now that you and I are a loving couple, I also want to have a child like you. Moreover, the situation is tense right now. If I can give birth to a child soon, it will be icing on the cake for you and the Dingbei Palace."

Looking at his beloved's expectant eyes, Su Cheng'an's heart stagnated slightly. He suppressed his helplessness and said slowly: "But now my thoughts are a little different from Ajin's!"

The young man turned his gaze to the window. Apart from a few palace lanterns under the corridor emitting a bright glow, the distance was filled with an unfathomable depth.

"After my trip to the northwest, I discovered the situation is even worse than we anticipated. I originally thought we had two or three years to prepare, but now it seems I was overly optimistic!"

He slowly turned around and looked at the beautiful and intelligent girl at the head of the bed, his words filled with unconcealable depression and worry.

"On my way back from the northwest, I met countless refugees. Most of them were honest and hardworking people, guarding their own land and living a peaceful and prosperous life.

"But now, due to natural disasters and even more terrible man-made disasters, they have lost the basis for survival and have been forced to become refugees who wander around, seeking only a glimmer of hope for survival."

"And yet the powerful and wealthy in the capital are completely unconcerned and turning a blind eye. They don't know that when the number of refugees reaches a certain level and they have no other options for survival, they will spontaneously gather together and become the first sharp blade to strike down the powerful and wealthy!"

"By then, uprisings will likely erupt everywhere like wildfire, and the princes will seize the opportunity to gather their own forces and establish their own territories. The Great Jin Dynasty will inevitably fall into a chaotic state of fragmentation and leaderlessness, with wanton killing and bloodshed everywhere."

"If we really allow the situation to continue like this, even if we are lucky enough to gain control of the world in the future, we will be facing a dynasty that has been shattered and suffered countless casualties. It will be like a snipe and a clam fighting each other, and the end result will be a lose-lose situation!"

After that, they looked at each other in silence.

After a while, Jin Chu raised her head. Her clear eyes seemed to see through people's hearts. She said softly and confidently, "So, you are planning to start a rebellion this year?"

"That's exactly what I mean!"

Su Cheng'an met Jin Chu's gaze and answered her slowly but firmly.

Ajin is not just a simple girl in the boudoir. She has an extraordinary insight and clear understanding of the turbulent world situation.

Therefore, Su Cheng'an never hid anything from her, because he knew very well that only by letting Ajin know more accurate information could she make more adjustments and changes to cope with the upcoming storms.

Jin Chu was silent for a long time, then said something completely irrelevant: "So, before the Dingbei Palace reaches the summit, you don't want me to give birth to our child?"

This time Su Cheng'an didn't say anything, but nodded slowly.

"It really is retribution, fate is playing tricks on us!"

Jin Chu smiled bitterly and sighed softly, "Before, I prided myself on being smart, but selfishly, I didn't want to bear a child for you any sooner in order to protect myself."

"Now I have fallen in love with you, and I am looking forward to giving birth to our child. When it comes to going through thick and thin with you, you are using the name of selflessness to refuse me from going through this difficult time with you!"

"Su Cheng'an, I know your feelings, but do you also know mine? Even if we don't have children, since I've chosen you, I'm ready to stay with you through thick and thin, and never leave you. Don't even think about pushing me away!"
