The man seemed to realize something, and introduced himself with a smile.

"The last time we met, I was the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Yan Xi blinked, took the tea he handed over, and bowed slightly.

"Thank you, Mr. Li."

Li Gongzi nodded with a smile, turned his head to look at the situation around him, and then whispered persuasion.

"Actually...... You shouldn't have come here today, the Third Highness is obviously targeting you, and the rest of us are serving tea. ”

The banquets of the Third Highness have always been as they like, and the Prime Minister's Mansion has recently stood in line again, so he was also thrown into the corner, but this made Li Gongzi breathe a sigh of relief.

He didn't like these banquets, but because of his status, he had to make friends with other people, so it was naturally best to stay away from the Third Highness.

And—

He carefully looked at the person in front of him and couldn't help but feel good.

Yan Xi drank the tea little by little, suppressed the discomfort in his throat, and pursed his lips when he heard the words.

"I have some personal matters to attend to."

Li Gongzi sighed, and knew that it was difficult to ask, so he was about to sit up straight, but he didn't expect to suddenly hear the other party's slightly puzzled inquiry.

"You ...... with the Fifth Highness"

He was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red, not knowing why this unapproachable Oiran would care about such a thing, and he spoke in a panic.

"I have nothing to do with the Fifth Highness."

In fact, Yan Xi is indeed not a gossip person, but he always listened to the little girl's chatter before, and he unconsciously remembered it in his heart.

His Royal Highness was curious, and he happened to run into it again, so he couldn't help but ask.

Seeing him like this at this moment, I already knew it in my heart, thinking that the next time the little girl came back, I would tell her.

After the panic, Li Gongzi had already calmed down and endured shame to speak.

"Did Her Royal Highness tell you that?"

Seeing that he nodded a little uncomfortably, Li Gongzi couldn't help but laugh again.

"Your Royal Highness has a really good relationship with you, and the crown princess is deeply loved by His Majesty, and she is upright, even if she marries you as a husband, it is not surprising."

After all, she is already the crown princess, and she doesn't need her husband's mother family to increase her power, maybe it will be too easy for the court to lose balance.

It can be seen from the fact that Her Royal Highness's harem is still clean for so many years, and she must be serious about her feelings.

As he spoke, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

His Royal Highness the Fifth has treated him very well, but in the end, there is a servant in the palace, and it is impossible for him to be the only one in the future, and he can't do it for a lifetime.

But in such a world, it's strange to be able to do it, right?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little envious of Yan Xi.

Although he was born in Hualou, he was able to meet the princess, and he would not be bitter in the future, so he was really lucky.

However, the future of him and His Royal Highness is still uncertain, and he does not know when the family needs to maintain their status on their own, or if they will be appointed by His Majesty to marry.

Sons of families like them no longer have the right to choose the marriage contract.

Thinking of a certain little girl, Yan Xi's expression softened, and she responded softly.

After all, he is the son of a family, and Li Gongzi quickly sorted out his mood, and the two chatted with each other.

After a while, a young man who had been sitting in front walked over, and although he was smiling, it was difficult for people to feel kindness.

He handed Yan Xi a glass of wine, his tone meaningful.

"Yan Gongzi shouldn't refuse my glass of wine?"

Li Gongzi on the side frowned and wanted to stop it, but he was easily stopped.

"What's the matter, Gongzi Li has an opinion about me Xue?"

Seeing that he looked a little embarrassed, Yan Xi pursed his lips and reached out to take it.

"Don't dare."
