Changsun Pingting gave birth to a son as she wished. This was like a bolt from the blue, causing an uproar in the entire Tiance General's Mansion.
In fact, this kind of thing is very scary not only in Li Xiang's family, but also in the entire capital city, because I see no hope for other families.
What kind of family is the Changsun family? That's the mother of the current crown prince. The uncle's family relies on this one relationship. Some things don't need to be explained. Don't you understand?
The only shortcoming of the Changsun family is that Empress Changsun has passed away. If Empress Changsun were still alive, this first family of relatives by marriage would be more solid.
Lord Changsun is the chief minister of the court and can almost be said to be the leader of the civil service group. Except for Fang Xuanling who can still compete with him, others can hardly hide their power.
What's more, she is the prince's biological mother, and her uncle is not far away. In the future, she will be the real uncle of the king. If someone wants to make trouble, they will have to see how much weight you have.
Although Chang Sun Chong is not very capable, he is now one of the eight deputy generals in the Tiance General's Mansion, and his future is limitless.
Besides, Changsun Pingting is Li Xiang’s money bag and holds the most vital lifeline.
In addition, there is Li Xiang's co-wife, Changsun Yunyi. Adding everything together, there is not even one wealthy family in the entire Tang Dynasty that is half as good as theirs. Even Cheng Yaojin's family cannot compare with them.
Of course, the most important thing is that Changsun Pingting was pregnant. She gave birth to a son for Li Xiang in her first pregnancy. Although this was Li Xiang's eldest son out of wedlock, people who were familiar with Li Xiang knew that he had no idea about the relationship between legitimate and illegitimate children.
It is normal for such a situation to occur, because Li Xiang himself was born as the eldest son of a concubine, so the person he least wants to listen to is the eldest son and legitimate grandson.
What's more, Li Shimin did not respect the relationship between legitimate and illegitimate children too much. After all, Li Shimin was not the eldest legitimate son. So although every family advocated the relationship between legitimate and illegitimate children, it was really hard to say who would be able to truly inherit the world in the future.
It can be said that as long as this child does not make a big mistake and does not show much intelligence, he may also inherit Datong. After all, the power behind him is so strong that even if others ascend to the throne, they may not be able to sit firmly on it.
"They say sons resemble their mothers, but when I look left and right, it seems as if he was cast from the same mold as me. Just now, some old maids from the palace came and said that he looks exactly like me when I was a child."
Li Xiang smiled and said that other people's sons looked similar to their mothers, but the little guy in Li Xiang's arms did look similar to him. Not only did the old maids in the palace say so, but everyone who had seen Li Xiang's childhood said so.
If the two people look at each other in the mirror, they will indeed be smaller in size.
"Your Highness is always talking nonsense. Isn't it okay if you don't say anything like that?"
Changsun Pingting was weak and could only lean on the bed at the moment. There were many people outside who came to congratulate her. Although they were not the head of the family, they were all important people.
Everyone knows that this is the villa of General Tiance's Mansion. It is almost an open secret. Although Li Xiang and Changsun Pingting did not show up, Qian Ping has been there to greet and see off people. Isn't everyone aware of this?
Originally, the Changsun family thought this was a shame, but now they are not so concerned. After all, the future depends on this kid. Even if Changsun Yunyi gave birth to a boy, he would not be as good as the kid in front of them.
Li Xiang had already discussed the child's background with Changsun Pingting. After a few months, they would say that the child was born to Changsun Yunyi. No matter whether outsiders believed it or not, we believed it.
Changsun Pingting thought about Li Xiang's arrangement for a long time, but could not think of a better way than this. If she registered him as her disciple, it would be difficult for him to enter the General Tiance's Mansion, and people would always gossip about him in the future.
Of course, this is just a nominal situation. In the future, you can raise the child wherever you want. Li Xiang is not the kind of person who pays attention to rules. What's more, the Tang Dynasty is not so feudal at that time. Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism only began to develop in the late Ming Dynasty. Although Confucian culture is also advocated now, there are not so many rules. Just look at the clothes on the street.
"Your Highness, please have someone carry you down. You've been holding me for so long, your arms must be sore. Have you packed everything you need for the exit?"
Changsun Pingting suddenly thought that Li Xiang was about to leave and would only stay here for one more day at most. There were so many things going on in the capital, so Li Xiang might not be able to come back after leaving this time. If she wanted to see Li Xiang again, it would have to be at least half a year later.
When talking about this matter, Changsun Pingting's face was a little jealous. She also wanted to follow Li Xiang south. When they went south, Changsun Pingting was also traveling with him. The scenery in the south was indeed different from that in the capital. However, with Changsun Pingting's current physical condition, there was no way for her to go south. She could only stay in the capital.

Although she knew that this was Li Xiang's sweet talk, Changsun Pingting still felt very comfortable after hearing this. Any woman likes to hear such sweet talk, it just depends on whether some men can say it.

Of course, it must be said by someone with the ability. If you have no ability at all, then you are just talking nonsense. Only if you have enough ability to say it will people think it sounds good.
"I'm not that stingy. Cheng Ying has been married for quite some time. Seeing the birth of children one after another in this mansion, it's normal for her to have some thoughts."
Changsun Pingting now has a son. As the saying goes, a mother is honored by her son. Among all the women in the Tiance General's Mansion, except for Cheng Luan, no one, whether a concubine or other concubines, can catch up with Changsun Pingting.
Although the Changsun family hadn't explicitly expressed their support, as long as Changsun Wuji wasn't stupid, he would definitely have done it. Otherwise, who had ordered Changsun Yunyi to come here? Li Xiang hadn't given any orders.
