Faced with Jiang Ming's questioning, Eriya was extremely nervous, her face filled with fear and panic...
Left with no other choice, she had to say, "The eldest son is more suitable."
“Give me your reasons!” Jiang Ming stared intently at her.
Eriya swallowed hard and said, "The eldest prince is born to the Great Chanyu's principal wife. According to the rites and laws of the Great Khan Empire, he should be made the crown prince..."
“That’s not what you really think!” Jiang Ming frowned.
Upon hearing Jiang Ming's words, Eriya knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "These are all my true feelings, without the slightest falsehood!"
Looking at the honest woman in front of him, Jiang Ming decided not to tease her anymore and said, "To tell you the truth, the one who is truly suitable to be made crown prince is your son!"
"ah?"
Upon hearing this, Eriya trembled with fear, shaking her head repeatedly: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I dare not, I would rather die than even entertain such a thought... Please, Great Chanyu, retract this..."
"shit!"
Jiang Ming interrupted, baring his teeth, "The child you gave birth to isn't my son? Isn't he my flesh and blood? Why can't I even have that thought?"
"ah......!"
These words made Eriya tremble again. She looked up at Jiang Ming in shock, and her originally self-conscious and timid eyes now held a strange emotion.
She bit her lip and said meekly, "I am of lowly status, so I dare not dream. Who doesn't want their child to have a better future? It is my fault... I am speechless."
Jiang Ming let out a long breath and pondered for a moment before saying, "I intend to make your son the crown prince, but there's a condition..."
Eriya was so frightened that she trembled all over and dared not utter a sound.
Jiang Ming paused for a moment and continued, "That means you'll be executed. Are you willing to trade your life for your child's future?"
Eriya trembled, looked up at Jiang Ming with a desperate gaze, and then silently nodded.
"Your Majesty...I am willing to die..."
Tears streamed down her face as she choked out, "I beg you, Great Khan, let me see my child one more time... Waaah!"
Jiang Ming got up, walked to her side, helped Eriya up, and then picked her up in a princess carry.
Eriya stared at Jiang Ming in shock, not understanding what he meant.
"Great Chanyu, this...?"
Jiang Ming didn't waste any words with her, he simply carried her to the bed and then undressed her...
An hour later, the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped.
......
Upon having sex with Eriya again, Jiang Ming discovered that this woman actually had quite a charm...
Although I still had a muttony smell, it was much fainter than before.
Overall, it was pretty good!
Four years ago, when I first slept with her, it was during a time of war and chaos...
Moreover, Xiongnu women had a bad habit: they didn't bathe!
They even said that taking a bath would offend the gods...
It was precisely for this reason that Jiang Ming's experience with her for the first time was extremely unpleasant.
After washing myself thoroughly and then going to bed, it felt like a completely different world.
Although Eriya is over 40 years old this year, she has a well-rounded diet and is truly plump and well-endowed... which greatly satisfied Jiang Ming.
After his mind and body were satisfied, Jiang Ming held Eriya in his arms and gently patted her shoulder.
Eriya obediently remained motionless, nestled in Jiang Ming's arms like a kitten...
"The Great Chanyu..."
"Um?"
"Great Chanyu, how do you intend to execute me?" Eriya bit her lip and asked timidly in a low voice.
"hehe......"
Jiang Ming asked with a smile, "How do you plan to die?"
Eriya's eyelashes trembled with nervousness, and tears streamed down her face as she choked out, "Great Chanyu, could you spare my body and bury me back on the grasslands...?"
"hehe!"
Jiang Ming laughed and said, "I was just testing you. I can't bear to see you die. Listen! The palace intrigue is really complicated now. I may seem to dislike you on the surface, but I'm actually protecting you... Take my son and go back to the grasslands first. I'll grant you a pasture. You can graze your livestock there and take care of my child. I'll send a special tutor to educate him... Remember! Train him to be a patient, brave, and decisive man!"
Upon hearing this, Eriya's eyes lit up instantly!
"Great Chanyu! Is what you're saying true? You're not going to kill me?" Eriya looked at Jiang Ming in surprise.
"hehe!"
Jiang Ming stroked her slightly chubby face and said, "I wanted to test whether you are a great mother... and it turns out you are! Oh... to be honest, I really hate to be separated from you, but there's no other way... this is the best way to protect you and my son! And the secret I'm telling you, don't tell anyone else, especially not our child!"
"Great Chanyu!"
Eriya hugged Jiang Ming and cried loudly, "I understand the Great Chanyu's good intentions. I will certainly live up to the Great Chanyu's trust and raise our son to be the most outstanding man on the grassland!"
"Not on the grasslands..."
Jiang Mingzheng said, "But he must become the most outstanding man in the whole world, whether it's the grasslands or the vast interior! Remember, let him suffer more, don't spoil him, you must understand the saying that a doting mother spoils her son!"
