For more than three years, Wen Ranchen had stayed in the palace because of his eyes, never showing his face outside. Everyone thought that the once most outstanding student of the Imperial College was no longer as famous as before.
Yet, unexpectedly, he was even more astonishing than in the past.
Arriving a bit late, Wen Jingming sat in the corner and watched Wen Ranchen win. He gently caressed his cup, lost in thought.
In the past, he never attended the Princess's birthday banquets, not because he had any objections to the Princess, but because the Princess was not happy to see him. Hence, the Emperor never forced him to attend.
Today, with a thick face, he came, planning to propose again to the Emperor about replacing the Princely Heir after the banquet. After all, he was about to go on an expedition tomorrow. If he could secure the title of Princely Heir for Wen Suyi before his departure, the child would be more motivated during his time outside.
