Li Xiang also spent a few rare peaceful days at home. Although the women behind him were still making trouble, everyone understood that Li Xiang would not be able to stay at home for too long, so they all stopped their conflicts. If anyone made a fuss in these two days, Cheng Luan had already made it known that no one would have a good life.
"I originally thought that you might not be able to control these people in the backyard of the Tiance General's Mansion, but I didn't expect that you are really the mistress of the house. I am very pleased with this result. I know what you are thinking. If nothing goes wrong when we go to the Western Regions this time, I will take you with me."
Li Xiang teased his daughter while saying that Cheng Luan was his first wife and was also recognized by the emperor, but the problem was that he had never had a son. His voice in the Tiance General's Mansion was getting weaker and weaker. In addition, Li Xiang basically took his concubine with him when he went out these few times, so everyone was wondering if the daughter of their old Cheng family was not doing well?
"I'd rather not. There are so many things going on in Chang'an City. If I follow you out, I don't know who to tell. Everyone is so cunning now. If I do something wrong, I won't know how to make amends after I come back. If it's all about the harem, then it's still understandable, but if it involves the former dynasty, even you will be affected."
Hearing Li Xiang say this, Cheng Luan was indeed very happy in her heart. After all, being able to go out with Li Xiang is a happy thing for any woman. But the problem is that there are so many things to do in Chang'an City. If one thing is not done well, she will probably be busy for half a year after returning.
There are so many female relatives who need to be won over now. Just look at the women in General Tiance's Mansion. They are almost busy every day. Either there is a wedding in one family or someone in another family has passed away. So they are busy with such things every day. There are rules for how many gifts to bring each time and how to express condolences and congratulations.
Now everyone knows that the eldest lady has done a flawless job in these matters. If someone else takes over, various problems will easily arise. Even if you regret it at that time, I am afraid there is no way to change these things. So although the eldest lady wants to follow Li Xiang to the west, she has to endure when she should, and the affairs of Chang'an City are more important.
"I've been wanting to discuss this with you for a while now. We have to promote two of our family members to help you. Otherwise, I won't even have the chance to take you out for a walk. If possible, you can train Xiao Xun'er. She comes from the Lanling Xiao family and is very good at these things. What's more, Elder Xiao is still in the capital. If you're undecided about anything, you can always go home and ask him."
After hearing what Li Xiang said, Cheng Luan's face changed immediately. He was not afraid of any woman in the family except Xiao Xun'er. She was beautiful, smart, and had a good family background. If she had a son, some things would be difficult to say. Who would be the head of the family?
In addition, there is Changsun Yunyi, but Changsun Yunyi is not very willing to be a housekeeper and usually just takes care of his son, so he is not a big threat to Cheng Luan. Xiao Xun'er is different. She has also shown great aggressiveness during this period. If you are not careful, your home may be robbed. Following Li Xiang to the Western Regions is certainly a good thing, but it concerns her status in Chang'an City, so Cheng Luan has to think carefully about it.
Whenever something like this happened before, he would ask his sister Cheng Ying to accompany him. But strangely enough, Cheng Ying did not get pregnant when she was with Li Xiang. Instead, she became pregnant when they were in Chang'an City. As a result, like her sister, she also gave birth to a little princess for Li Xiang.
These people in Chang'an City are the best at making up lies. What they say makes people feel that there is no hope at all. For example, Cheng Yaojin killed too many people in his early years, so he did not accumulate blessings for his children. Both of his daughters went to the General of Tiance's Mansion, but neither of them had the chance to give birth to sons, so now he only has daughters, and it will definitely be the same in the future.
After hearing this, the Cheng sisters were so angry that they almost vomited blood. However, what the other person said was not wrong. Take the current Tiance General's Mansion for example. There are already three young masters, but none of them came from the Cheng sisters' wombs. What do you think about this?
The thing that the capital city lacks the least is these rumors. When these words spread, you cannot confront them. If you confront them, you don’t know when it will end. And if you don’t respond to these things, you will disappear in a month at most. But if you say a word, it will take half a year to dissipate.
"Your Highness is very considerate. Sister Xiao Xun'er does have the ability, but the Lord is already old. If we ask him about everything, wouldn't it appear that we have no vision? Otherwise, let my sister accompany Your Highness to the Western Regions."
Thinking of Xiao Xun'er's spiritual power, Cheng Luan felt uncomfortable. When choosing between Chang'an City and the Western Regions, it was obvious that he had to choose Chang'an City. This was the basic foundation. If he lost Chang'an City, even if he followed Li Xiang to the Western Regions, he might lose money. Of course, if he conceived a boy on the way, all this could be solved, but who would dare to gamble on such a probabilistic problem?
When Mrs. Cheng finished saying this, Li Xiang looked at his wife with consideration. They had agreed that no tricks should be played at home. If you do, you will probably be punished. At this moment, Mrs. Chen was also a little afraid of Li Xiang's gaze. It seemed that Li Xiang's eyes could see through everything, including your tricks.
"Since you've made this decision, I won't say anything else. Pack up and get some rest. I'll be heading to the Western Regions in a few days. There can't be any chaos at home. We did a very good job before, and we must continue the same practice. Sisters, please coordinate with each other and discuss any issues. If you encounter any problems that cannot be resolved, go outside the city to find Changsun Pingting."
After Li Xiang finished speaking, he left the room. It seemed that he would not stay here tonight.
