C28 Find the Most Beautiful Son-in-law!

Lan Qingqian looked at the small bowl in front of her and hesitated for a moment before looking at Gu Jun'an.

She stared at the bowl. It was too small!

Gu Jun'an naturally understood what she meant. He exchanged the bowl of rice in front of him with hers, then picked up a golden honey-flavored chicken drumstick and put it in the bowl. Only then did he calm her down a little.

Gu Tianrui had been secretly looking at Lan Qingqian. When he saw their actions, he craned his head and asked Lan Qingqian, “Can you finish eating all this?” Gu Tianrui felt that the emperor's uncle was feeding pigs and ducks. Little Nine was the same size as him, so she could eat so much.

Lan Qingqian nodded heavily. Her mind was completely focused on the bowl, and she was gobbling down the food.

The emperor watched as most of the food in the plate went into the little girl's bowl. The rice had already been added twice.

“Even Canglan's princess can eat so much?”

Gu Jun'an said lightly, “She is still growing. She needs to eat more!” He was speaking on her behalf.

Lan Qingqian ate and ate. Suddenly, she remembered what her emperor's nephew had told her before. When they went to the West Province, she had to pay attention to eating etiquette and not let the people of the West Province think that the princess of Canglan was poor and couldn't afford to eat.

She hesitated for a moment, then seemed to have made up her mind. She stared at the chicken drumstick in front of her and thought, “I will eat another one and I promise I won't eat another one…”

Gu Jun'an saw her put down her chopsticks reluctantly, and felt very surprised. She had not even eaten half of the food and had already put down her chopsticks?

As if she felt Gu Jun’an’s gaze, Lan Qingqian said in a low voice, “I’m full!”

Gu Tianrui, who was sitting next to her, was already tempted. “Little Nine, let’s go play after we’re full! I’ll bring you to the swing. There are many fun things in the palace…”

Lan Qingqian shook her head to reject him. She was not full yet, how could she go play?

She looked at the fruits on the small tea table not far away.

Gu Jun’an saw through her intention and understood her intention. She helped her out, “I just ate a lot of food. Let’s go eat some fruits to digest.”

Lan Qingqian got off the stool and ran to the fruit plate after hearing that she could eat in the open.

Gu Tianrui was not willing to let her go. He immediately changed his position and followed her like a follower.

He sat down and peeled the orange skin for her. He also talked to her in a low voice.

The empress was sitting next to the tea table and holding a teacup. “It’s the first time I see the Crown Prince so attentive. He’s really good looking. It seems like the Ninth Princess and the Crown Prince are childhood friends.”

The emperor coughed lightly. “Be careful of your status. She’s your sister-in-law now. Can you even steal the wife of your brother-in-law and give it to your son?”

Gu Jun’an followed the empress’ gaze and heard the words ‘her childhood sweetheart’. His eyebrows twitched slightly and displeasure appeared in his eyes.

The empress was slightly embarrassed. “Heh, I was just casually saying that the two children are about the same age!”

“Isn’t this a joke? Now that the Canglan Kingdom and the West Continent are fighting together, they need a precious prince and princess to get married to form an alliance. The Ninth Princess is young, and the Crown Prince is even younger. How can they get married? It was the Seventh Prince who proposed to marry her. Otherwise, I wouldn’t want to do it. Look at her, she’s just a baby, and she’s so young…”

“Can’t you guys just say it in front of me?” Knowing that they were disgusted by her young age and that she was holding an orange in her hand, she immediately ran over.

The Emperor patted her on the head. “What do you know, a child?”

Lan Qingqian was unconvinced. “Who said I don’t know? My big nephew said that Gu Jun’an is the most beautiful person in the West Continent. I’m the most powerful and most respected princess. If we want a husband, we have to find the most beautiful one! It’s the same as picking a horse in a stable. We can’t just pick the most beautiful one. Can’t she be smooth and glossy?”

The empress spat out the tea in her mouth. “Pfft! Cough, cough, cough!” She coughed a few times and her face was red. It took her a long time to recover.
