Qin Chuan took the initiative to find Su Rushi again the next day.
Upon meeting, the two were immediately ablaze with passion.
Afterwards, Qin Chuan savored the memory of her soft, delicate body.
Su Rushi stood there and sighed, "Alas, we can't continue like this. If Fifth Sister and Shan'er find out, how will I face them..."
"What are you afraid of? I'll marry you."
Qin Chuan said this, and Su Rushi covered his mouth anxiously, "Brother-in-law, do you know what you're saying?"
I said... I'll just marry you, if all else fails.
Qin Chuan removed her soft hand and said with a serious expression.
Su Rushi suddenly frowned and said solemnly, "No, no, you absolutely cannot marry me!"
"Why?" Qin Chuan asked, puzzled.
Su Ru Shi paced back and forth, shaking her head and sighing: "If you marry me, won't the whole world laugh at Fifth Sister? You wield immense power and can disregard the opinions of the world, but what about Fifth Sister? How pitiful she is! His Majesty took you away from her, and now if you still want to marry me, how will she live?"
"Also, I'm scared..."
At this point, she sighed slightly, tilting her head back, "Doing this with you was an impulsive act, but I'm also afraid of being gossiped about and called shameless for seducing my own sister's husband..."
"Don't say that," Qin Chuan hugged her, his warm, large breasts pressed against his chest, "It's not your fault. Actually, I've liked you for a long time. I'll talk to Ru Yan about this slowly..."
Hearing him say this, Su Rushi gently broke free from his embrace, momentarily stunned. After a long while, she murmured, "Brother-in-law, even if you are sincere, this is still against etiquette. I will be condemned to death by the whole world..."
Qin Chuan said with a serious expression, "You didn't make the mistake alone. Whatever it is, I'll share the responsibility with you."
"No, let me think about it some more, just a little more..."
Su Ru paced anxiously, thinking and thinking but unable to come up with an idea. In the end, she pushed Qin Chuan out of the door.
“Brother-in-law, I can’t ruin your reputation, nor can I put Fifth Sister in a difficult position, and I don’t want to be gossiped about. Let’s see each other less in the future. I will take Shan’er back to Jingbei Prefecture to live…”
Qin Chuan paused for a moment, then looked at her and asked, "But what if you get pregnant? You're only thirty-one, it's very likely you'll get pregnant, and I have to take responsibility for that."
This question completely baffled Su Ru Shi.
Yes, what if I get pregnant?
Twice...it shouldn't be that easy to get pregnant, right?
Thinking of this, she closed the door helplessly, her face growing increasingly worried...
"Hey! Don't go back to the Jingbei Prince's Mansion. Just stay here. Don't be afraid of anything. Ruyan and I have agreed that I'll marry you." Qin Chuan knocked on her door.
The door opened, and Su Ru stared at him blankly, biting her red lips: "Brother-in-law, I really can't hold you and Fifth Sister back. It's all my fault..."
"What do you mean, 'your fault'? You're not wrong at all! We're in love, neither of us is at fault!"
Qin Chuan tried to wake her, but found her eyes fixed on the distance. He said urgently, "Shan'er is back, you should leave quickly..."
Qin Chuan was startled upon hearing this.
Turning around, he saw the young princess walking towards him, so he went over to greet her.
"Shan'er, you're back."
The moment I opened my mouth, I felt a pang of guilt.
Looking at the little princess's innocent and adorable appearance, Qin Chuan still felt a little guilty.
She told him to go and keep her mother company, instead of going to bed with her.
She wanted him to persuade her mother, not to seduce her...
I did everything I shouldn't have done.
Thinking about all this, Qin Chuan felt quite sorry for the little princess.
To everyone's surprise, the young princess was completely oblivious and happily exclaimed, "Fifth Uncle, I'm so grateful that you came to keep my mother company!"
Qin Chuan affectionately patted her little head. "Shan'er, this is what I should do."
The young princess chuckled and took his hand: "Fifth Uncle, sometimes I feel like you're my older brother, and sometimes I feel like you're my father..."
"What nonsense are you talking about..."
Qin Chuan was speechless. He had just done something wrong, and her words made his face feel hot, as if it were on fire.
Su Rushi, who was watching this scene from not far away, had a complex expression in her eyes. She stood there, stunned, looking completely lost in thought...
...
Several days later, the first girls' school in the capital, founded by the young princess, finally opened.
On his way back to the Prince of Yan's residence from the Empress's palace, Qin Chuan stopped by to take a look.
Beside the two lifelike Qilin beasts, two female Imperial Guards and four Imperial Bodyguards stood guard at the entrance.
Upon seeing His Highness the Prince of Yan enter, two female Imperial Guards clasped their hands in greeting and said, "Greetings, Your Highness!"
Qin Chuan waved his hand, telling his guard Li Aniu and a group of servants to wait outside, while two female Imperial Guards led him inside.
It was 7:45 AM. The young princess, dressed in a high-necked, fitted cheongsam and wearing glasses, led her students in morning recitation. The female students recited a poem in clear and melodious voices.
The young princess would read a line, and the female students would repeat it.
"The bright moonlight shines before my bed, I wonder if it is frost on the ground."
"The bright moonlight shines before my bed, I wonder if it is frost on the ground."
"I raise my head to gaze at the bright moon, then lower it to think of my hometown."
"I raise my head to gaze at the bright moon, then lower it to think of my hometown."
Qin Chuan walked through the corridor. Two other female Imperial Guards who were patrolling inside immediately ran over when they saw him, clasped their hands in greeting, and said, "Your Highness."
"Um."
After giving a soft "hmm," Qin Chuan saw the young princess smile slightly at him.
He waved gently, as if to greet her.
