Chapter 229 (1/2)

Thank your father and mother for giving him a good face.

Xiao Jingtan thought.

He subconsciously went to see her, but found that her eyes were falling on another person. He looked down in amazement, and that person was just looking at her.

The sight is eager, burning and obscure

Xiao Jingtan felt very upset for a moment.

Different from his childhood, he can now distinguish what this dissatisfaction is and what the meaning of that person's eyes is.

But at the banquet, with his uncle beside him, he forced down the depression.

It was a young man. He was in his twenties. He looked like a gentle jade and a gentleman.

Xiao Jingtan still remembers that he returned to Beijing with his ”grandfather”. He is the eldest young master of the Wen family. His appearance and talent are excellent. This time he returned to Beijing, he also wanted to let the emperor shade and seal an official position.

”Uncle.” Xiao Jingtan called brother Chu and asked casually, ”who is that person? Why are you looking at the mother imperial concubine all the time?”

The eldest brother of the Chu family was a rough man. He drank too much. It would be a little smoked. He glanced at him and said with a big tongue.

”He, Wen Qingyan, your mother's childhood sweetheart.”

Childhood sweetheart?

Xiao Jingtan's eyebrows frowned slightly, and then heard his uncle say, ”they had an engagement since they were young. At that time, your grandfather caught me and your second uncle practicing martial arts and art of war. Xiao awun often played with him. It had a good relationship from childhood to childhood.”

”Alas, if the emperor hadn't intervened in those years, these two people would be together now!”

Engagement... Marriage

Xiao Jingtan's inner unhappiness continued to accumulate, and her handsome face gradually sank: ”the mother imperial concubine is clearly the sister of her uncle. Why did she fake others at the beginning?”

”... ah?”

Xiao Jingtan lowered his head, covered the cold awn in his eyes, and his tone was soft: ”nothing.”

Although the two major generals of the Chu family were drunk, were they stared at by their beautiful nephew just now?

Hey, you must have read it wrong.

Drink, drink!
