The left Minister tried to persuade Xiao Hanchen.
The left Minister knew his son very well. He had been smart since he was young, like a child prodigy. He was well-versed in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. He had a good reputation in Eastern glory nation.
Moreover, he had inherited his father’s beauty and had been surrounded by many since he was young.
All the women in the eastern glory nation were attracted to him.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he had been engaged to an LAN Xintong since he was young, he would probably have entered the imperial family and become a Prince’s husband.
Even when Xiao Hanchen was previously engaged to Anlan Xintong, the second Princess had often expressed her goodwill to Xiao Hanchen.
As the mother of the left Minister, she knew all of this.
To be honest, he had also looked down on Anlan Xintong before. He felt that Anlan Xintong’s father had died, her grandmother was seriously ill, and she looked like an ignorant and incompetent person. Even if she was infatuated with Hanchen, he felt that her status was not worthy of him.
She was the left Minister, so she naturally pursued power. She thought that perhaps Xiao Hanchen’s status would be more respected if he entered the imperial family.
Who would have thought that Anlan Xintong would actually have such ability and courage? she was no ordinary person!
Even though she was the left Minister, she didn’t think that Anlan Xintong would have such good fortune.
Furthermore, it was obvious that the Empress’s admiration for this Anlan Xintong had already exceeded everyone’s imagination.
Or it could be said that the Empress treated an LAN Xintong even better than the princess.
Was it because an LAN Xintong was a talent from the eastern glory nation?
After all, the people in the palace had spread the news that the Empress had said more than once that Anlan Xintong was a talent.
Furthermore, the Empress seemed to have visited all of an LAN Xintong’s shops in secret.
In fact, even the officials would send people to line up to buy things.
Xiao Hanchen’s expression stiffened as he listened to the left Minister’s words.
He naturally understood what his mother meant.
Previously, he had taken the initiative to look for an LAN Xintong. To him, this was already letting go of his pride and dignity.
However, Anlan Xintong’s attitude was very obvious. She seemed to have forgotten about him, so what else could he do?
He could only blame himself for being too conceited.
And now that he thought about it, he had indeed gone too far back then.
When the calm orchid clan was at its lowest, him breaking off the engagement was the same as adding insult to injury.
Moreover, Anlan Xintong’s father had saved his father’s life before. Their left minister’s residence was equivalent to being ungrateful.
As Xiao Hanchen thought of this, he gripped the jade pendant in his arms tightly.
This jade pendant was something that he always carried with him.
The left Minister looked at Xiao Hanchen’s pale face and sighed. He felt that perhaps with Xiao Hanchen’s personality, it would be difficult for him to take the initiative to do something that would please others.
The left Minister thought for a moment.”Your younger brother is now sixteen years old. It’s time for a marriage proposal. I’m preparing to make up for the mistake of the left minister’s residence.”
Xiao Hanchen’s face turned even paler,”mother, are you going to betroth my brother to Anlan Xintong?”
Xiao Hanchen said these words stiffly.
Back then, it was his mother who had hinted at him to cancel the engagement with the tranquil clan, saying that the tranquil clan had already declined.
Now, his mother wanted to betroth his younger brother to an LAN Xintong. This was a slap to his face.
How could he!
If it was someone else, he could still accept it. But if it was his younger brother who had entered the calm LAN clan, how would he be able to face calm LAN Xintong in the future?
Moreover, he had actually considered putting down his dignity and taking the initiative to approach Anlan Xintong.
The left Minister’s expression turned awkward.”I’m doing this for the good of the left minister’s residence. From the Empress’s perspective, an LAN Xintong is definitely not an ordinary person. Although your younger brother’s talent can not be compared to yours, his looks are also extremely good. This will also ease the relationship between our left minister’s residence and the an LAN clan.”
