Shang Changge's approach was to use his status to intimidate others in a simple and brutal way, and Xiao Ji's approach was just as simple and brutal.
However, it was relatively tactful, giving Fang Wenbo, his martial arts instructor, some face.
It was nearly noon.
Xiao Ji brought a large number of beauties that Emperor Mingde had bestowed upon him during his lifetime to the palace to request an audience with Shang Changze, who then granted him an audience.
Then Xiao Ji returned a large number of beauties to Shang Changze, saying that having the eldest princess alone was enough for him in this life.
Not only that, but the palace matrons were also required to verify the virginity marks on the arms of these beauties to prove that they had remained chaste for the princess before their marriage.
After finishing these tasks, Xiao Ji left the palace and returned to his residence without stopping, where he cooked lunch for Shang Changge.
Shang Changze, who was inexplicably stuffed with a bunch of beauties: "..."
Ultimately, these beauties went to work for Shang Changze's private businesses, continuing to support themselves through their own efforts.
Simply put, it's like changing places to work and continuing to make your life shine.
Beauties: ...No, are all the people in power these days crazy?!
Of course, the beauties only dared to say these audacious things in their hearts.
The Grand General returned all the beauties bestowed upon the late Emperor to the current Emperor.
"The Grand General declared before the Emperor that having only the Eldest Princess in his life was enough."
These two pieces of news quickly spread like wildfire throughout the capital, reaching the ears of everyone who needed to hear them.
For a time, all sorts of rumors circulated.
The most frequent comments were praise for Xiao Ji, after all, according to common sense...
On the day of Princess Qingyan's wedding, a maidservant will accompany her. The purpose of the maidservant is self-evident.
If the princess agrees, the prince consort may take concubines and raise young girls.
However, no maids accompanied Shang Changge on her wedding day, a fact noticed by all the people.
Whether the Princess will agree to the General taking a concubine in the future is unknown to the common people, but Shang Changge herself knows.
Therefore, Shang Changge had someone release the news again.
No matter what happens in the future, she will never agree to let Xiao Ji take a concubine.
The couple worked together to nip any potential unwanted romantic advances in the bud.
Thus, all those with ulterior motives quieted down.
Life returned to normal, and on this day, the Xiao family, that is, Uncle Xiao Ji's whole family, came to visit the couple.
After their marriage, the couple frequently visited the Xiao family and had become quite familiar with each other. They got along very well from beginning to end.
Unlike Shang Changze, no one in the Xiao family knew that Shang Changge was extraordinary.
Hearing that the couple had not yet decided on a name for their child, he was somewhat disapproving.
"It's been more than four months, so it's time to think about a name. I need to think about both boy's and girl's names, and come up with a few to choose from slowly."
"Yes, a name is something that stays with a child for life, so it can't be taken lightly or carelessly..."
"Sister-in-law and brother, do you hope it's a girl or a boy...?"
The Xiao family members spoke one after another, saying things that only family members would say.
As the sun set, the entire Xiao family left.
Shang Changge listened to the discussion about names, but not much. After considering a few, he felt none of them were quite right.
Thinking about it any further made me a little irritated, so I decided to give up on leaving the question of naming the baby to Xiao Ji.
Xiao Ji doted on him and accepted the job.
While Shang Changge was taking a walk in the garden to digest her food, accompanied by Qingyao and Zhuque, Xiao Ji was in his study thinking of a name for the child.
Half an hour later, the child's name was decided and the official document was approved.
"Crunch."
He slammed the study door shut, locking it as he muttered to himself: "Hey, the general only comes up with names for girls. What if it were a boy... Oh, poor kid!"
