After all, we still need to save face for the Sang family. The name Si'an is too easily associated with me. Once exposed, the Sang family's reputation will be completely ruined.
Hearing him say that, Sang Hong visibly breathed a sigh of relief. His daughter was usually very smart, but she had made a mistake in this matter. Choosing this name was clearly telling everyone that she had connections with Zu'an.
At this moment, Zu'an said again, "Let her take the surname Sang. Now everyone knows that the Sang family's daughter-in-law gave birth to a posthumous child. If she takes another surname, there will be gossip."
He also didn't want to put Zheng Dan in a situation where others would feel different.
Sang Hong looked at Zu An gratefully and said, "Zu An, thank you. Let her take the surname Sang for now, and we'll find a few opportunities to change it back in a few years."
The original plan was to have a son, who would have both the bloodline of the Sang family and could also benefit from the name of Sang Qian, but it turned out to be a daughter, which rendered all the plans futile.
After all, it's impossible to let Sang Qian have another child. This child can still be said to be posthumous, but if another child is said to be posthumous, it's guaranteed that the next day rumors will spread that Sang's daughter-in-law is having an affair.
His gamble failed, and he couldn't help but feel disheartened.
Sang Qian was also a little frustrated, but seeing her good daughter made her feel much better.
At this moment, Zheng Dan laughed and said, "It's actually quite simple. Just let Qianqian and Azu have a few more children, and then find one of them to be adopted into the Sang family."
Sang Qian blushed deeply: "Dandan!"
Her relationship with Zuan was ambiguous. The original plan was to have a child and then cut ties, but now they were caught in a dilemma.
Zu An smiled and said, "If Miss Sang is willing, I wouldn't mind."
Whether a child takes the father's or mother's surname is actually the same, especially since the Sang family has indeed helped him a lot.
Sang Hong's eyes lit up immediately. This was a good idea. He had been stuck in a dead end before and was thinking about having a son for Sang Qian. In fact, it didn't matter if he was the son or if he was the heir from Sang Qian.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Sang Qian's heart pounded, and she lowered her head and whispered, "I will leave everything to Father's decision."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but steal glances at Zu An. He was her first man, and he was outstanding in every way. She often chatted with Zheng Dan in bed, and the more she learned about him, the more she liked him.
"Haha, good, good." Sang Hong was immediately relieved, and his depressed mood of the past few days improved a lot.
Zuan teased Sisi for a while; the beautifully made-up daughter was truly captivating.
However, she was still young, and soon she got tired and drifted off to sleep.
Zuan carefully placed her in the cradle before finding an opportunity to discuss the current situation with Sang Hong.
To everyone's surprise, Sang Hong waved his hand and said, "You can ask Qian'er for the same thing. She has already surpassed me in this regard. Sometimes I even have to consult her for advice."
He also wanted to create opportunities for his daughter, since the two of them had slept together without any formal status or recognition. He needed to foster a better relationship between his daughter and Zu'an.
Zu An was somewhat surprised and bowed to Sang Qian, saying, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Sister Qian'er."
"Brother Zu, you flatter me," Sang Qian quickly returned the greeting.
Zheng Dan chuckled: "Are you two worshipping heaven and earth?"
Sang Qian was so embarrassed that she wanted to pinch him, but Sang Hong coughed lightly and said, "I won't disturb you young people any longer. I've been a bit tired from government affairs lately, so I'll go back to sleep first."
After saying that, he winked at Aunt Mu, and the two got up and left.
Sang Qian's cheeks flushed: "I'll take Sisi back to her room first."
At this moment, Zheng Dan took her arm with one hand and Zu An with the other: "Let's go together, we're all family here."
Sang Qian pursed her lips but did not refuse. There was no need for her to be wary of Brother Zu in her private quarters.
Soon the group returned to Sang Qian's boudoir, where a delicate fragrance filled the air, along with a faint scent of milk.
Zu An subconsciously glanced at Sang Qian's chest and noticed that it was indeed much fuller than before.
Sang Qian placed her daughter in the cradle. Sisi twisted her body, as if she had sensed that she was no longer in her arms. Her little body writhed as if she was about to wake up.
Sang Qian quickly bent down and gently patted her body to comfort her.
Zheng Dan then took Zu An's arm and said, "Zu An, what exactly happened during this time? Tell me quickly."
Zu An didn't hide anything from her and gave her a general account of what happened in the Purple Mountain Daoist Grand Competition and the secret realm.
Of course, some details about his numerous female confidantes were omitted, and it was not mentioned that he killed Zhao Hao.
After all, this matter is too big; if it were to be revealed, it would cause a huge uproar.
Zheng Dan exclaimed, "Azu, you always seem to experience so many interesting things. I really want to go with you."
However, she knew this was unrealistic; she had previously pretended to be pregnant in the capital.
Sang Qian said apologetically, "Dandan, it's all because of us that you can't move around freely."
Zheng Dan was quite open-minded: "It would be too formal for us sisters to talk about these things. Anyway, now that I've had the baby, I'm free. On the contrary, you're going to have to start trying to conceive again."
"You're so annoying!" Sang Qian said coquettishly.
After the two joked around for a while, they quickly returned to the main topic. Sang Qian said seriously, "Brother Zu, now that you're the Crown Princess and the Empress, you don't know which side to take, right?"
“Hmm.” Zuan nodded. “They’re all very good to me. No matter which side I side with, I’ll offend the other side.”
Zheng Dan's expression was strange: "Why are they so nice to you? Could they all be having affairs with you?"
However, even he himself found it unbelievable and couldn't help but laugh.
