"uncle?"

Xie Yuantang was stunned and put down her hands that were on her waist.

The one who is qualified to call himself her uncle and can attend the palace banquet with the emperor...

"Uh……"

It can't be such a coincidence, right?

Xie Yuantang blinked her big watery eyes and covered her mouth with her little hands in surprise.

The little head tilted, and the colorful ribbons tied to her buns swung down mischievously. She asked Situ Qing in a low voice: "Father, who is he?"

Situ Qing snorted coldly: "Didn't you say he was an old bastard? Just call him that!"

Xie Yuantang: “…”

"Tsk..."

Leng Yunchao was a carefree person and didn't use polite words when talking to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, you can't teach me randomly! Besides, we are related after all. If I were an old bastard, wouldn't you also..."

"Cough cough!"

Seeing that the emperor's face was getting darker and darker, Yan Guanqing interrupted Leng Yunchao in time: "General Leng, be careful with your words."

After saying that, he turned around and smiled at Xie Yuantang and said, "This is Leng Yunchao, the third son of Leng Zhenshan, your mother's younger brother, and indeed your uncle."

really……

Xie Yuantang's mouth twitched slightly.

She had thought that when her grandfather and uncles came, she would act like a naive, weak and pitiful little thing. But who knew that not only did she fail to act like a pitiful little thing, but her true rude face was also seen by her own uncle!

Looking at Leng Yunchao who was still rubbing his forehead, Xie Yuantang scratched his head awkwardly.

"Does it really hurt that much?"

"Hiss~ What do you think?"

Leng Yunchao loosened his hand that was rubbing his forehead, revealing the big bump on his head, and said in a rough voice: "This iron head skill! I almost got knocked back to Xueling with one blow!"

Xie Yuantang: “…”

However, she didn't expect that her uncle with such a rough voice was actually very handsome.

Different from the fair and delicate handsomeness of the Situ family, Leng Yunchao has a sense of wild and vast growth.

His healthy wheat-colored complexion made him look even more heroic and strong, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He was at least 185cm tall and had a body full of tendons...

It really makes people feel safe!

Xie Yuantang's eyes lit up.

She admits that she is obsessed with looks!

"uncle!"

Xie Yuantang showed a bright smile, and rushed towards Leng Yunchao, holding his arm with his little hands and shaking it, and said coquettishly: "Uncle, you are so handsome!"

Leng Yunchao looked down at his innocent and harmless niece and laughed angrily: "You're not scolding me anymore?"

"Oh, didn't the Lun family know it was you~"

Xie Yuantang blinked his eyes, and his playful and lively look made Leng Yunchao so amused that he couldn't even get angry.

Besides, he came here for them, mother and daughter, so why would he bother with her?

He gently pinched her cheek with his big hands and said, "Forget it. Seeing that you are so tough, I feel relieved!"

God knows how anxious he was when he saw the letter from his niece. He hurried to Beijing even though several horses died on the way. He wanted to give the little girl a surprise, but who knew that she gave him a big surprise first!

Watching Xie Yuantang recognize his relatives, Situ Yan stood by and thought for a while, then walked over.

He had met Leng Yunwan and knew the etiquette for meeting her mother's family!

At that moment, Situ Yan stood in front of Leng Yunchao, bowed to him at a 90-degree angle, and said respectfully, "Hello, uncle."

Yan Guanqing: “…”

He was reluctant when he called me, but he was not unfamiliar when he called others! He is really my nephew!

Leng Yunchao frowned and looked at Situ Yan. He had naturally heard of the Fifth Prince, and also knew about his marriage with Xie Yuantang. However, he could understand it, but accepting it... He just couldn't accept it at all!

He had such a precious niece, only nine years old, and before he had time to pamper her, she was already getting married?

This is something that even I cannot tolerate!

Leng Yunchao snorted coldly and turned his face away.

A smarter person would have noticed his attitude problem long ago, but Situ Yan is not smart!

He raised his head and looked at me doubtfully, then blinked his beautiful peach blossom eyes and asked with a flash of inspiration:

"Should I kneel down? Uncle, I'll kneel down right now..."

Situ Qing: “…”

I saw him not kneeling just now, but you kneel down as soon as he hums at you. You are really my son!

Xie Yuantang came over and held him, smiling and said, "Husband, you don't have to kneel. Uncle is joking with you, right, uncle?"

When she said the second half of the sentence, she pinched Leng Yunchao's fingers with her little hand, gritted her teeth and whispered, "Don't bully my husband!"

Leng Yunchao: “…” and he still protected her!

His son looked so cowardly that he didn't even want to kneel. Situ Qing didn't even bother to watch. He just snorted coldly and walked away.

Yan Guanqing and others followed closely behind.

When the palace banquet officially began, Xie Yuantang realized that this palace banquet was originally held for her uncle Leng Yunchao.

Leng Yunchao returned to Beijing and was appointed as the deputy commander of the fourth-rank cavalry.

Although he is a fourth-rank official, which is not a very high position, Leng Yunchao is a member of the Leng family. His return represents the Leng family.

The Leng family has been stationed in Xueling for more than ten years. In terms of military achievements, their achievements are even greater than those of Duke Yu.

Everyone looked at Leng Yunchao, who was deeply favored by the emperor, and then looked at Xie Yuantang and Situ Yan, and their minds began to become more and more confused.

Now that the Leng family has returned to Beijing and is so friendly to Xie Yuantang, it can be seen that the Leng family has let go of their old grudges.

In this way, the three surnames of Yan, Leng, and Xie are all civil and military...

hiss!

Everyone suddenly realized that this was all the power of the Fifth Prince!

He used to be a fool, but now he seems to be getting better day by day. Who knows if he will be better in the future...

Thinking of this, everyone's eyes on Situ Yan suddenly changed.

The same idea was shared by several princes present, as well as Imperial Concubine Yu and Imperial Concubine Li who were accompanying the Emperor...

Xie Yuantang didn't care what others thought, she was only responsible for eating.

Situ Yan: "My lady, eat this rice cake, it's your favorite."

Leng Yunchao: "Rice cakes are too sweet and will cause cavities. Let's drink some wine. Drinking wine will invigorate the blood circulation!"

Yan Guanqing: “…” He suspected that if they continued feeding her, the little girl would get food poisoning!

The palace banquet is halfway through.

Situ Qing and the two concubines left first, and the others were no longer restrained, some went out for a walk, or left early.

Xie Yuantang, who was full, rubbed his round belly and went outside to digest the food.

Situ Yan accompanied her, and as they walked, they came to a rockery in the imperial garden.

The early summer night was already hot. Xie Yuantang sat on a rock next to the rockery and licked his tongue.

"Are you thirsty, ma'am?"

Situ Yan saw her movements and frowned, "You ate a lot of rice cakes just now, you must be thirsty, sit down, I'll go get you some water."

"no thanks."

Xie Yuantang waved his little hand: "I'm not that thirsty, don't run back and forth, go back and drink later."

"No."

Situ Yan shook his head: "My wife is so young, I have to take good care of her."

He couldn't do anything else, but he could do small things like getting a glass of water.

Situ Yan started beating him right after he finished speaking, and Xie Yuantang was too late to stop him.

It was very quiet around her, so she just sat there and looked up at the stars in the night sky.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly there was a sound of someone falling into the water.

Xie Yuantang was slightly startled and stood up from the stone.

"Husband?"

"Madam, save me!"
