The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 759: Nothing is trivial in the back house

In fact, for Cheng Yaojin, it was the same whether he was invited to drink or not. After all, he was Li Xiang's father-in-law. Sooner or later, he would be invited to drink, otherwise some people would say that Li Xiang did not understand etiquette.

But Chang'an City is a den of right and wrong. If Li Xiang doesn't invite Cheng Yaojin, then rumors will definitely spread, and the rumors will be even more exaggerated. Even if the invitation is slow, some people may feel that something is wrong.

This time can be said to be just right. After Li Xiang returned to Beijing, his every move was watched by others. After returning from drinking with Lord Changsun, Li Xiang entertained his father-in-law in the East Palace. Although this was a bit against the rules, it was supposed to be I'm going to visit Cheng's house.

But the people in the capital can see clearly that usually all kinds of goodies are sent to the Cheng family, which is like mountains of gold and silver. Now it doesn't matter whether they go to visit or not, it's just one more gift.

If you are a poor son-in-law, you must live with your father-in-law for three years and two years. If you don’t go, some people will definitely say that you are stingy. But Li Xiang bears most of the expenses of the old Cheng family throughout the year, and some people will say that he is stingy. Stingy?

What's more, the East Palace today is not the same as before. Li Chengqian has also restored his full strength in the court. In order to maintain his identity, he would not often invite people to drink in the East Palace. After all, he still has to care about Li Shimin's thoughts. The old man is still here. As for you, if you often have banquets with officials in the East Palace, what are you thinking about? Is it possible that you also want to visit the Xuanwu Gate?

So going to the East Palace to drink is still a very honorable thing. The last time was when the eldest princess returned to the capital, Xiao Shougui's mother, Cheng Yaojin was considered her second family.

After receiving the invitation from His Highness the Crown Prince, although Cheng Yaojin was not very happy on his face, he was actually happy in his heart. It had been two days since his son-in-law returned to Beijing, and he had no other explanation for not coming to visit him. Although he He said he didn't care, but he was still focused on this matter in his heart.

"Look, look, you all are talking nonsense. It's those two boys who got into trouble in the northwest, and there's a problem between His Highness Taisun and I. Where did the problem come from? Isn't it? Are you very busy after you come back? Help his father deal with his little wife's affairs, and help the old man Changsun deal with his son's affairs. Our family is in peace, and now it's my turn."

When Cheng Yaojin got the invitation, he went to the back house and yelled for a while. During this period, he couldn't hear what people outside said, but he could hear clearly what the women at home said. There is no shortage of this kind in Chang'an City. Cheng Yaojin’s words also let these people see clearly that our old Cheng family is still standing.

"My Lord, how can you say these words? Although we and the prince's family are in-laws, we should still abide by our duties as kings and ministers, otherwise we will embarrass our son-in-law."

After Mrs. Cheng heard this, she was so frightened that everyone in the family went out. Even though Cheng Yaojin always spoke freely, there are some things that should not be said carelessly. The affairs of Changsun Wuji's family didn't matter. Almost the entire city of Chang'an We all know it, but we can't just talk about the prince's little wife.

In this era, filial piety is important. Your father has found a new aunt for you. Not only can you not object, but you should strongly agree. This is filial piety to your father. If you come back, you will deal with this new aunt. If so, some people will criticize you if you don't want to. Are you raising a son just to take care of my bed affairs?

"What's so embarrassing about this? Do you think I'm idle these days? Qian Ping, the former manager of the East Palace, left the city and headed south."

Cheng Yaojin said nonchalantly, but still lowered his voice. After all, it was related to royal matters, and you had to be careful when you should be careful to avoid being caught.

After hearing this, Mrs. Cheng also had a look of surprise on her face. There had been rumors outside that the prince was very interested in this new concubine. Li Xiang had only been back for a few days, could it be that he had already let the prince know? Have you changed your mind?

"Our uncle has always been very concerned about the affairs of the court and is quite capable. How come he is also so capable about matters in the back house?"

Mrs. Cheng was still in charge of Tuo Yaojin just now and didn't let Cheng Yaojin take care of these things, but she couldn't hold back her curiosity.

Cheng Yaojin looked at his mother-in-law speechlessly, you women have always thought that you are the only ones who are proficient in matters in the house. In fact, if the masters work hard, they will definitely not be worse than you.

"Madam, what you said is wrong. In fact, there is no clear dividing line between the affairs of the former court and the harem. It is just a means. As long as the means are deep, anything can be done. Our son-in-law is above the court. He has various abilities, and I’m afraid no one can stop him from what he wants to do.”

Cheng Yaojin said some truth again. It is true that the affairs of the former dynasty and the harem are not on the same track, but they remain the same. As long as you have a brain, you will not suffer any loss. It is nothing more than a waste of money. Just some time.

That Aunt Fan thought she had gained status, so she started to act arrogantly. However, she and Li Xiang were not in the same rank. With a little guidance, Li Chengqian himself was also a smart person and could figure it out quickly.

Even if Li Chengqian of Aunt Fan's team is sincere, according to Cheng Yaojin's idea, Li Xiang will never keep this woman.

When Cheng Yaojin said this, Mrs. Cheng's face showed a look of shock. Could it be that Li Xiang wanted to assassinate this woman?

"If it weren't for you women who have long hair and short knowledge, our son-in-law, no matter how powerful he is, can't do anything to his aunt. He wouldn't dare to do this if the word "filial piety" is suppressed."

It was rare for Cheng Yaojin to show off in front of his wife. He usually gave the impression that he had strong limbs and a simple mind. But seeing his wife's confused look at this moment, Cheng Yaojin felt extremely satisfied. Even if I don't analyze these things for you, if I really analyze them, I can analyze them clearly and logically.

"Then why do you say he can't keep Aunt Fan? Is there any other way?"

Mrs. Cheng's curiosity was really aroused at this moment. People outside are preparing now. Cheng Yaojin will go to the East Palace in a short while. Mrs. Cheng also hopes to let Cheng Yaojin explain clearly in this moment. , which woman doesn’t like gossip, especially gossip about the royal family or her own in-laws.
