Chapter 3759 Depression

Brother-in-law?

Once upon a time, this was his dream.

But now he doesn't even know where Hong Luan is.

He has been to all the high-profile houses in Kyoto.

For his status, as long as he wanted to go, no one would welcome him.

Those wealthy families with daughters of marriageable age are even more welcome.

But Jin Lan, a drunkard, didn't care about drinking. He just wanted to find out whose house Hongluan had wandered into.

This search lasted for more than half a year.

In the past six months, Jin Lan had mixed in with almost all the high-profile families in Kyoto.

While this made him famous, it also brought him some bad reputation.

Some gossips will think that he is clinging to power.

But there are also many people who sneer at such remarks.

After all, with Jin Lan's talents and background, he is one of the top people in Kyoto.

If nothing else happens, when the prince ascends the throne in the future, he will also be the most powerful person in Kyoto.

Only others please him, how can he take the initiative to please others.

So gradually there was a saying that Jin Lan's behavior was purely for His Highness the Crown Prince, to win over his ministers and strengthen his own power.

But the argument is also a bit unreliable.

Because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a well-known cold person, he disdains to associate with any princes or nobles except the people in his East Palace and his uncle, the King of Qin.

Since the collapse of Nanping County Prince's Palace, the most powerful family in Kyoto is Chen Guogong's Palace.

The legitimate daughter of the Duke's palace, who is known as the most beautiful woman in Kyoto, has long made a secret promise to His Highness the Crown Prince. If His Highness the Crown Prince is willing, just nod his head and the marriage will be done.

As the prince, he will also receive strong support from the Duke's government.

But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been sincere towards the legitimate daughter of the Duke.

This is enough to explain some problems.

If it weren't for His Highness the Crown Prince, how could we explain Jin Lan's words and deeds that lingered in various major families all day long?

Regardless of the commotion and rumors outside, Jin Lan is determined to find Hong Luan.

But the Hongluan seemed to have completely disappeared.

No matter how he looked for it, tried his best, and tried his best, he still couldn't find it.

He even bribed the eunuchs around the third prince and secretly checked all the maids there.

But, no.

The third prince did not lie.

Such mental and physical exhaustion, disappointment and longing made Jin Lan sluggish in just half a year.

Even His Highness the Crown Prince couldn't help but frown when he saw it.

The whole Jin family was even more anxious.

Jin Lan used to be bright, but now she is depressed and gloomy.

He was given a blind date at home, and although he refused, he was willing to explain a few words at first, but later on, he was so annoyed that he simply didn't go home.

He moved to the small courtyard where Hong Luan once lived, and stared at the hairpin left by Hong Luan every day.

This made the Jin family anxious.

Mrs. Jin came to see him personally and persuaded him to go home.

Jin Lan only made one condition: from now on, don't give him any more blind dates.

If you agree and stop bothering him, he will move back home immediately.

How could Mrs. Jin agree?

He is the only one in the Jin family, and they are still waiting for him to get married and have a son to inherit the family.

The mother and son had a big quarrel and broke up.

Jin Lan lived outside for more than a year. Even when Mrs. Jin passed away, he didn't have time to rush back to see her one last time.

Although Mrs. Jin was old and in poor health, her death was not anyone's fault.
