"But is there something wrong? When I saw my father-in-law coming over today, there was nothing wrong on his face. Is someone causing trouble at home? It shouldn't be. My two brothers-in-law are at the front line, and they are the only ones causing trouble usually. What else could it be?"
Li Xiang did drink quite a lot today, mainly because his father-in-law could drink a lot. If the son-in-law did not accompany him, it would be really rude. What's more, the father-in-law came to your house to drink. If you don't let him drink well, wouldn't it be considered as poor hospitality if it gets out?
Hearing what Li Xiang said, Cheng Luan couldn't hold back her tears. Ever since they got married, Li Xiang has always loved his wife. Firstly, it is his responsibility as a husband, and secondly, it is because he really likes his wife. No matter what the matter is, as long as he gives it his instructions, there is nothing he can't do. With such a wife, what else could a husband ask for?
"Look, look, why are you crying again? What kind of big thing happened? There are very few things in this world that I can't do. Just tell me directly. If anyone offends my wife, I will make him pay."
Li Xiang hugged his wife in his arms. The two maids hurried out when they saw this. Usually, no one was left in the upper room. This was different from other nobles. Other young masters would leave one or two people in the upper room, and someone would have to serve them after they were done. However, Li Xiang was a person from modern society, and he always felt that this was a bit uncomfortable. So when the two of them had intimate actions, the maids below were also very tactful and would immediately leave the upper room.
After coming into contact with her man's body, Cheng Luan's body became very sensitive, but today's incident was a bit sad because she was about to share it with others. If it was a foreign woman, Cheng Luan would still be able to cheer up and fight with the other party, but this person was sent by her father, and she was also her own sister, and she came to help her, so she couldn't let go of the anger.
"Your Highness, why is my belly still so still?"
Normally, Cheng Luan would never say this, but today he felt unwell all over, and coupled with what Cheng Yaojin said, Cheng Luan could not help it.
Li Xiang was a very smart man, he immediately understood what was going on, and with Cheng Yaojin coming over today...
When Li Xiang returned to Chang'an City, he had already heard the rumors about Chang'an City. However, Li Xiang and Xiao Yu had the same idea that some things could not be clarified. If you take the initiative to clarify, it will give those who spread rumors more opportunities, and the situation will get worse. It is better to ignore it.
"You are still young. If you give birth to a child now, it will be extremely harmful to your health. We are not in a hurry. We will wait a few years."
In fact, Li Xiang also didn't want to have children so early, mainly because the members were too young. Nowadays, medical skills are not very good. Giving birth is a big hurdle for all women. If they can get through it, it is a good thing, but if they can't, it is very likely that there will be two lives lost.
Li Xiang's idea was very clear. Since this matter was so dangerous, he should wait until Cheng Luan was 20 years old. When Cheng Luan was 20 years old, her body would be much stronger than it is now. She would be at least an adult woman, and it would also be the best menstrual period from a medical point of view. It would be the safest to give birth to a child for Li Xiang at that time, instead of taking risks now.
"That's what I said, but..."
Cheng Luan also knew that this was true, because when he talked to Li Xiang before, Li Xiang always answered in this way. Naturally, he thought that this was what Li Xiang thought in his heart. However, he was not anxious, but people outside were anxious. Today, even his father mentioned this matter personally, so it was conceivable that other people must be anxious as well, including those in the palace.
For the royal family, expanding territory is certainly important, but they also have to keep in mind their main job, which is to expand the royal family. In such a large empire, the number of royal family members is small after all, and expanding the royal family is their first priority. As long as they are adult men after marriage, they all have several children. If there are no children, the emperor will probably point to several girls one after another.
Because Li Xiang has been fighting outside in recent years and has not been married for long, the emperor has not paid attention to him. After this year, all the children of the civil and military officials in the court will go to the palace to pay New Year's greetings. At that time, Li Shimin will see that there are no children around Li Xiang, and I am afraid that Li Shimin will take a concubine for Li Xiang.
"There aren't that many buts. Just listen to me on this matter. Did you hear anything outside? If so, you don't have to take it to heart. If anyone dares to gossip in your ear, I will pull their tongue out immediately."
Li Xiang said very majestically that he was indeed tired today, so he didn't have much time to chat with his wife. It was already evening, and everyone in the house had gone out. There was still a fragrance wafting from his wife's body. If he could still bear it, it would be really fatal.
Cheng Luan wanted to say a few more words, but soon he was speechless. As the incense and candles went out, the most important thing between the couple began.
However, after finishing the job, Li Xiang fell asleep, but Cheng Luan kept his eyes open and looked at the curtains above.
Cheng Luan had a lot of thoughts in mind at this moment. His parents would never harm him. Even though Li Xiang was treating him well at this moment, after joining the royal family, a man's love could not be lifelong. This was something everyone understood. Only children could be his lifelong support.
The relationship between the Emperor and Empress Zhangsun was supposed to be the pinnacle of royal love, but so what? Didn't the Emperor still have his own harem? So Cheng Luan had to call in her illegitimate sister. Although she would become her enemy, she was still better than anyone else. As long as the sisters were united, they would be the most powerful force around Li Xiang.
To be honest, Li Xiang doesn't want so many women around him. Just quarreling with them is enough. But sometimes, in this position, it doesn't mean that you can avoid something if you don't want it...
