Sisi and I had great chemistry that night. She said she wouldnt partake in the banquet but still showed up for a short while. The boy wanted to confirm the alliance and reinforcents in addition to taking Sisis signed docunts back. Unfortunately, Sisi and I wouldnt ntion it regardless of how anxious he was for Sisi and I were of two minds.
I didnt drink much so that I could et Sisi at night with a sober mind. The ladies-in-waiting sprayed so fragrance on before giving two pills I was familiar with.
I think you ladies have mistaken sothing
I took the two pills I bet Sisi wouldve liked with .
Sisi, who felt she deserved land and wealth for her triumph, stood by the table and silently scanned the peace treaty I signed with the Empress until she saw co in and shut the door, prompting her to point to a chair: Sit. Dongqing, explain this to . Ive read the peace treaty. We won, but we didnt gain anything. Are you saying that I have to even pay for their fallen soldiers and cover their repairs?
You dont need to cover the expenses, Sisi. Let the businesses pay it. The South suffered a blow during this fiasco. That was the businesses original gathering place. Let our businessn from the North converge there and take over the assets. Theyll fix the place out of their own pockets and so forth. All you have to do is repair the roads. Also, I discovered sothing important when I went there: itll be painfully difficult for us to control them. Their beliefs and lifestyle are totally different to ours. We cant communicate, either. If we occupy their land, well incite resistance. Sisi, youll end up needing to spend an exorbitant amount to bring the situation under control. Most importantly, grudges will beco a blade pointed at us. One fire and all of our efforts will be for naught.
Sisi processed it in her mind then queried, So, whats your aim with the peace treaty you signed? What can we gain from it?
Control.
Sisi, smart enough to comprehend without being explicit lowered her head to deliberate. I think I understand what youre thinking. You want them to depend on us, correct?
Exactly. Think about the South. Their culture and religions resemble ours to a certain extent; however, theyre constantly thinking about revolt today, revolt tomorrow. The South is closer to us than the new colony, isnt it? You get it, dont you? Given we cant even control the South, how can we solidify our control over foreign territory? All we need to do is hook them in with our money and goods so that they beco dependent on us. Once they have developed the dependency, their citizens will protest against any rebellious ideas they might have.
I understand now. It seems that my reach isnt long enough. Sisi, dimpling, elongated her arm to pull the tension out of her muscles and then clung to my arm. Hehe, that said, its enough to hug you. The day is finally over, and I finally have the chance to tell you this Ive been really lonely recently. I missed you.
The two of us reactively stood up and walked to the bed. Sisi got on top of and licked her lips. How about you stay here for the night?
I I cant do thatI rubbed Sisis cleavage and then sat up, forcing a smile. I promised Veirya that Id be back, so I have to go back Sorry, Sisi, Ill co back next ti.
Sisi got off after sighing. I stood up and gently dusted myself, checking to ensure none of Sisis traces were left. Sisi hugged gently from behind. When will you beco my Dongqing? When will I be able to see you by my side when I wake up? Dongqing, when will you truly be by my side?
I turned around and hopelessly smiled.
I assu you knew I wouldnt be your husband when you stepped on my head.
Nevertheless, I gave Sisi a peck on the cheek and left without a word.
The ladies-in-waiting froze when they saw . They probably didnt think Id leave so soon. It was my first day back, so I had to reserve my first night for my wife, Veirya. I knew that wed have a cosy night.
When I returned ho, my family was sitting in the family room despite it being late at night. Leah quietly snored in Veiryas arms. Angelina was reading a strange book over a cup of tea. Anna was busy taking care of a group of people. When I opened the door, Veirya was the first one to regard from her chair.
I handed my cape to our steward and gave my family a smile. Veirya placed Leah aside and ca up to hug Yes, it ward my heart. First I felt myself dying and losing vision because it was frightening I still couldnt tell you if it was Veiryas affection or punishnt. Basically, she nearly snapped in half
Can we hit pause for a mont? No, seriously Id rather die in enemy territory than in my wifes embrace!
