Chapter 69 Chi Jingxi Secretly Playing Favorites (1)
There were countless restaurants of all sizes in Chaoge, but the New Moon Tower was the most particular.
Because this restaurant did not accept ordinary civilians, even if they were very wealthy. If the person’s family held no official positions, they were not eligible to enter…
Unless they were bought in by another noble, like Wen Yantong.
She stood at the door, making Fu Zixian nervous. He whispered, "What's wrong? Why aren’t you going in?"
Wen Yantong turned her head and said, "I don't know any of the people inside."
Fu Zixian said, "Maybe they are friends of the Little Marquis..."
"What are you standing at the door for?" Mu Yang waved at the two, who were whispering at the door. "Hurry, come in!"
Wen Yantong bravely entered the room. She glanced around roughly and saw five male strangers, sitting around the table. They were all in brocade and magnificently dressed, looking elegant and handsome.
Cheng Xin was among them. He asked with a smile, "Jingxi, why bring these two?"
Under the guidance of Mu Yang, Wen Yantong sat down with the door behind her back. With Chi Jingxi on the left and Fu Zixian on the right, she smiled dryly. "Just now, I met the Little Marquis while on the road. When the Little Marquis rescued this commoner, I wanted to treat him to a meal to thank him. However, I didn't think that the Little Marquis had already made an appointment."
She explained as she swept her eyes across the table. There were only a couple scattered small snacks. It seemed that they hadn't started eating yet. But with a large table full of gentlemen, there was only a single carved porcelain pot on the table. It is hard to say whether it is filled with wine or not.
Wasn’t alcohol served at every small get-together?
The man sitting at the head smiled gently. He cast a helpless glance at Chi Jingxi. "Xiao Xi brought them with a purpose. No matter. Let's eat together."
Chi Jingxi said, "They are all classmates from the Academy."
A few people laughed immediately. One of them said, "I really didn't expect that the Little Marquis would bring his classmates here one day."
The man seated at the head asked, "Classmates, from the same lecture hall?"
Wen Yantong glanced sideways at Fu Zixian. She wanted him to answer but didn't expect to see his face flushed red. Fu Zixian was so nervous that his two hands hidden under the table curtain were twisted together. He would probably stammer as soon as he opened his mouth.
So Wen Yangtong bit the bullet as she grinned embarrassedly. "Little Marquis is in Class One of Jia. We’re from Class Six of Ding."
The very top and the very bottom.
The table was silent for a moment. Several people seemed to be stuck at this moment, not knowing what to say. Cheng Xin cleared the siege and said, "Don't look at the literature of these two people. Their martial skills are still quite powerful."
Mu Yang chewed on the peanuts and followed up. "Yes, yes, yes! Fu Zixian's archery’s very good! Only Brother Xi is better than him in the Academy."
Several people seemed to breathe a sigh of relief at the same time and said that they really couldn't see it.
Fu Zixian was even embarrassed that he wanted to get under the table. He didn't even dare to say anything self-effacing. Seeing that something was wrong, Wen Yantong pinched him secretly. Fu Zixian's thighs trembled in shock, and he hurriedly said, "Overpraised! Overpraised! My accuracy is just a little higher. There are still many powerful people in the Academy..."
The man continued to ask, "Are you from the Fu Residence? Prime Minister Fu's son?"
Fu Zixian answered quickly, "Yes."
"I've dealt with Prime Minister Fu several times, but I didn't expect the imposing Prime Minister to have such a shy son." He laughed.
Fu Zixian didn't dare to refute. He lowered his head and didn't speak.
Wen Yantong looked up and saw that the man had a gentle face. He had a small black mole on the tip of his nose, and his face was very good-looking. She was secretly shocked, and while still in doubt, she heard Cheng Xin say, "Second Brother, Fu Zixian has a bashful nature. Don't scare him anymore, or Yang’er won't be willing."
"Yeah, Brother Shezhao! He’s timid. Don't frighten him!" Mu Yang followed.
Wen Yantong now understood why Fu Zixian was so nervous and afraid. Because the gentle man sitting on the opposite end is the current imperial crown prince.
Cheng Xin's biological brother. Cheng Yanchuan, courtesy name Shezhao.
Wen Yantong suddenly realized that this might not be an ordinary get-together. Since the crown prince was sitting at the table, the identities of the remaining few people must also be extraordinary.
Cheng Yanchuan was very good-tempered. He laughed at the moment and agreed with a few "Okay". Afterwards, he turned his head and looked at Wen Yantong. "What about this little gongzi? No one has introduced him yet."
"Wen Yantong, no official position in his family. Son of a wealthy businessman from Chang'an." Chi Jingxi briefly introduced her.
A look of confusion appeared on the faces of several people. Obviously, they had never heard of her.
Chi Jingxi added, "It's the one who was crippled by the Fu Residence's carriage some time ago."
With a look of understanding, Cheng Yanchuan nodded. “Very well.”
Wait, when did this thing become her exclusive label?
Cheng Yanchuan said, "Since Xiao Xi brought you all, then we are all friends. No need to be reserved."
Wen Yantong nodded again and again. How could we not be reserved? Look at Fu Zixian. His limbs are about to become one lump.
"Yu Lin, why is Xiao Xi so unhappy today? Something on his mind?" Cheng Yanchuan turned to ask the person beside him.
Wen Yantong immediately looked over and saw that this person's eyes were somewhat similar to Chi Jingxi's. When he smiled, his eyes narrowed into crescents. "I don't know. It’s hard to tell what this kid is thinking about all day long. It’s always filled with bad ideas anyways."
This was Chi Jingxi's half-brother, Chi Zhongjian, whose courtesy name was Yu Lin.
It was clearly written in the book that there are quite a few children from the Marquis’s Residence, but only Chi Jingxi was a direct descendant. Chi Zhongjian's mother died early and was brought up by the Madam of the Marquis, so Chi Jingxi had a very good relationship with him.
Wen Yantong only recognized two people, but she already knew what the purpose of this get-together was. These motherf*ckers are all from the crown prince’s faction, and this was their private meeting!
