Upon hearing these words, Wu Junwan\'s heart skipped a beat.

From the sound of it, did her good sister actually hold little faith in the Great Wu\'s forces?

The Yue Emperor seemed to sense Wu Junwan\'s thoughts and lightly smiled before saying, "Junwan, don\'t overthink it; what I said was merely an \'if\'."

Despite her words, Wu Junwan could sense that her good sister truly had little faith in Great Wu; no wonder she refused an alliance, preferring instead to let Great Wu test the waters with North Country.

At that moment, Wu Junwan thought of someone and then asked, "Qingrou, has that maidservant who looks very much like me returned from North Country?"

Li Qingrou replied, "She returned once, but I sent her back to North Country to gather more intelligence."

The Yue Emperor\'s words almost confirmed Wu Junwan\'s speculation, the Yue Emperor indeed held little faith in the forces of Great Wu. The Emperor probably saw North Country\'s power as almost equal to that of an entire dynasty.

The Yue Emperor said nothing more, her delicate hands continuing to gently caress Wu Junwan\'s body.

After a moment, the Yue Emperor said with a smile, "Junwan, your body becomes all the more enthralling with time. I wonder which man will be fortunate enough to savor your grace."

Upon hearing this, Wu Junwan chuckled and then replied, "I have long resolved never to marry; no man shall have the privilege of touching my body."

Li Qingrou held Wu Junwan close, whispering in her ear, "A vow never to marry doesn\'t mean you won\'t have a man."

"If you have no man, where will the child come from? And without a child, how can you control the entire Great Wu dynasty?"

How could Li Qingrou not understand Wu Junwan\'s mind? As her close sister, she had long noticed that Wu Junwan aspired to become an Empress of a dynasty, just like her.

It was just that the situation in Great Wu was complicated, coupled with the fact that Wu Junwan was not as powerful as she was, making it difficult for Wu Junwan to ascend to that supreme position in Great Wu.

Especially considering that Wu Junwan was a woman, the issue of a successor was significant.

Stunned by Li Qingrou\'s words, Wu Junwan indeed pondered as Li Qingrou suggested. If she were to become the Empress of Great Wu one day, to whom would she pass the throne if she had no child?

But these were concerns for later. Her father, the emperor, was in his prime, and her ambitions would likely remain unfulfilled for decades.

With this thought, Wu Junwan couldn\'t help but sigh and then said, "Qingrou, let\'s not talk about me anymore. Whether I can even take that position is uncertain."

"You\'re different—you are now the Empress of Great Jue. And with your family\'s scarce progeny, if you don\'t find a man soon to bear a child, to whom will you pass your throne?"

The Empress smiled faintly, "I still strive to reach a higher Realm in Martial Arts. I wouldn\'t dream of having a child at this point. And given my lifespan, ruling over Great Jue for a millennium won\'t be an issue. So, there\'s no need to worry about a successor so soon."

"Besides, the number of men who could catch my eye is most likely quite small."

At this point, the Yue Emperor\'s head rested on Wu Junwan\'s fragrant neck, taking a deep breath, "No man smells as sweet as my Wanyan. Oh, if only you were a man."

Hearing this, Wu Junwan just smiled. For some reason, as they discussed men, the image of North Prince suddenly surfaced in her mind.

Thinking of the North Prince made Wu Junwan\'s body grow restless, a warmth spreading through her.

She still remembered the words the North Prince said to her when she left North Country—that one day he would make her his woman, adding also that Great Wu would send her willingly to North Country.

At that thought, Wu Junwan couldn\'t help but chuckle. To be honest, she quite liked the North Prince\'s appearance; unfortunately, they were enemies.

It was then that a bold idea formed in Wu Junwan\'s mind—if Great Wu managed to conquer North Country this time, could she persuade her father to leave North Prince to her to deal with? Maybe she could imprison him for her use?

The North Prince was so powerful; any child of his would surely be strong as well. If she could have a child with the North Prince and then raise the child in secrecy, Great Wu\'s succession problem would be solved.

With this in mind, Wu Junwan resolved that should they conquer North Country, she would find a way to detain North Prince. If her father refused to hand him over, she would simply take North Prince covertly and find a place to keep him confined.

The more Wu Junwan thought, the hotter her body burned, and as she pressed closely to the Yue Emperor, even she began to notice an unusual warmth radiating from Wu Junwan.

At that moment, the Yue Emperor said with a laugh, "Wanyan, are you thinking of a man? Your body is so warm; come on, tell me, who were you just thinking about?"

Startled by the Yue Emperor\'s words, Wu Junwan regained her composure and retorted, "Qingrou, what nonsense are you talking about? The water is hot; soaking for a while naturally warms the body."

"I too strive for a higher Martial Arts Realm, how could I possibly be thinking of men."

The Yue Emperor laughed and said, "Wanyan, if you truly find a man you like in the future, you must tell me about him, and I\'ll help you check him out."

Feeling guilty, Wu Junwan gave a noncommittal "Hmm" and stayed quiet after.

She calmed her emotions and made an effort not to dwell on that young man any longer. If her thoughts lingered, her body might react in even stranger ways, creating more abnormalities for her good sister to notice, which would be undesirable.
