Ao Wuyan watched Li'er fall asleep peacefully before leaving Jujiu Pavilion, walked out of the door, a gust of night wind blowing, no sleepiness at all.

Ao Wuyan folded his robe sleeves and stood with his hands behind his back, feeling a pair of eyes watching him silently in the darkness.

Ao Wuyan's affection for Li'er is completely involuntary, that kind of lovesickness touches people's hearts and makes people want to stop.

In order to reassure the mother and concubine, she can only see her beloved one at midnight every day, and only then can she feel at ease watching her sleep peacefully.

Li'er is still in the General's Mansion, but he doesn't want to make the original brotherly relationship worse because of Li'er.

Baili Changhuan in the dark didn't leave, and had been waiting for Ao Wuyan to come out of Jujiu Pavilion.

In the night wind, I saw Ao Wuyan standing with his hands behind his back, the autumn wind was rustling, his clothes fluttering, just like the cold and proud before.

"Tomorrow is the third day of the eighth lunar month. Does Prince Jing know what day it is?"

Ao Wuyan narrowed her long and narrow phoenix eyes slightly, only then did she remember that it was the time when the sweet osmanthus fragrance was filling the garden again, and tomorrow was the birthday of cousin Jin'er.

In the past, every year on this day, I would go to Tianqi Kingdom with Baili Changhuan to celebrate his birthday, but this year Jin'er has returned to the imperial capital of Bianning, and it will take some time for the crown prince to return to Beijing. I am afraid that this birthday should be the same as his own. Uncle and aunt lived together.

"Of course I remember, tomorrow is Jin'er's birthday."

"Jin'er hasn't celebrated her birthday at home for ten years. Tomorrow night, my parents will congratulate Jin'er at the mansion. His Royal Highness Prince Jing is also invited to come."

Because of Li Er's matter, Ao Wuyan almost offended everyone around him.This banquet should be a good time to ease the relationship between everyone.

"Don't worry, the king will definitely come tomorrow night."

"Then this subordinate will thank Prince Jing on behalf of parents."

The alienation between the words was chilling, and I didn't feel that there was an insurmountable ice ravine between the two people.

The two didn't speak much, and after explaining their intentions, they left.

Ah Sang was always worried, and when he returned to his room, he turned back and heard in the dark that Ao Wuyan had promised to attend the birthday party tomorrow night.

Although she was wearing a thick cloak, her intuition as a woman made her feel inexplicably uneasy.

The next day, everything was as usual, Ao Wuyan went to the Bingning Hall to pay his respects to his mother after going to court.

His younger brother, Ao Wulei, has gone back to Xiangwang Mansion without any serious problems, the emperor spared him half a month's court meeting, so he is probably enjoying himself in that gentle village at this time.

Baili Bing also just went to the Empress Dowager Mu's bedroom to greet her. Not long after she came back, she saw her son coming to greet her.

"There's no need to be too polite, everyone else back down!"

Ao Wuyan saw that Baili Bing had even retreated, so he must have important matters to discuss in front of him.

Baili Bing walked to the phoenix couch, and took out a light blue delicately carved box from the hidden compartment.

"Yan'er should know that today is Jin'er's birthday. Today Jin'er will resign from the Queen and return to the Prince's Mansion. I cannot personally bring the gift to her. How about you hand it over?"

Ao Wuyan was going to the General's Mansion at night, but he forgot to bring a gift.

Ao Wuyan looked at the box, it was light blue and exuded a faint fragrance.

"Yan'er, do you know what's inside this box? This box is made of camphor tree, and inside it is the family treasure of the Baili family, the Jinxiangyu pendant."

Baili Bing opened the box, and a gold and white jade pendant appeared in front of her eyes.If there is anything different about this jade pendant, it might be the faint, refreshing fragrance emanating from his body.

"This jade is an extremely rare and rare jade carving. It is said that the golden fragrance jade is said to be blind. A woman will emit a fragrance when wearing it. Therefore, this stone is only passed on to women and not to men."

Baili Bing closed the box, handed the box directly to Ao Wuyan's hand and said: "This item is very precious, don't lose it."

Ao Wuyan put Yu Shi in his arms directly, "I have made a note, I will definitely bring the gift to Jin Er."

Seeing Ao Wuyan put the box into the ring, Baili Bing looked very satisfied, and the corners of his mouth raised an unnoticeable and strange arc.

Not much to say, time passed quickly, in the blink of an eye it was night, Ao Wuyan had dealt with business in Prince Jing's residence, it was getting late and it was time to go to the general's residence.

Pick up the box containing the golden fragrance and jade pendant from the desk, and put it on the desk all the time. The fragrance emitted from it is very special, and it makes people feel very comfortable after smelling it. No wonder it will become a family heirloom of the Baili family.

When Ao Wuyan came to the General's Mansion, Baili Jinse hadn't arrived yet, and Qi Mengyao's birthday had already passed in the first lunar month, so the queen didn't know that today was Baili Jinse's birthday, so Qi Mengyao resolutely returned to the Prince's Mansion , the queen did not force others to do anything difficult, so she agreed to her resignation.

It may take a lot of trouble for Baili Jinse to leave the mansion privately without telling the people in the Prince's mansion.

Ao Wuyan originally wanted to see Li'er, Aunt Shen was probably still teaching etiquette in Li'er's room, and attending the family banquet this time was to repair the relationship between them, so going to Li'er's place at this time might not be appropriate, It doesn't hurt to go after the party.

Today's banquet was completely hidden. In a small courtyard of the General's Mansion, after waiting for about half a cup of tea, Crown Princess Qi Mengyao, the daughter of General Baili Ming, Baili Jinse finally arrived.

Baili Jinse came in a nocturnal suit, and with Baili Changhuan's support, she changed into a pink tight-fitting long skirt, which outlined a beautiful curve.The cape covered with pink satin looks elegant yet simple.

As soon as he entered the room, he knelt down on the ground and knelt down to worship his mother, Qiu Shi.The mother and daughter have been suffering from lovesickness for ten years, and the mother and daughter cried in each other's arms.

The scene of weeping tears is heartbreaking to watch, even Baili Ming's deep eyes, which have always been rigid, reveal a touch of sadness.

"Ma'am, today is my daughter's birthday, how can you cry like this, spoiling the atmosphere." After listening to Bai Liming's words, the mother and daughter let go of each other and sat at the dining table. Everyone, regardless of their status, dined together.

Baili Jinse's eyes looked at Ao Wuyan, and the eyes of the two met for an instant, and Ao Wuyan withdrew his gaze and turned away.

For today's banquet, the Qiu family had spent all their time thinking about what her daughter liked to eat when she was a child, and directly put Baili Jinse's favorite imperial concubine's wings into her bowl.

Baili Jinse looked at the table full of dishes. For ten years, she had always hoped to eat meals cooked by her mother again. The tears in her eyes flickered and fell again.

As he spoke, he grabbed the wine jug that had been prepared on the table long ago, "After ten years, Jin'er can finally gather with his parents. Today, Jin'er is going to toast everyone." He drank it down in one gulp.

Then he picked up the wine jug and poured a glass. He looked really happy, and actually wept with joy.

Baili Changhuan was afraid that his sister would drink too much, so he snatched the jug from Baili Jinse's hand.

Bai Liming also looked very happy, and picked up the glass of wine in Baili Changhuan's hand.

"Jin'er's return today is really a great event. Everyone drinks their glasses to the brim and congratulates them together!"

Ao Wuyan remembered the task that his mother and concubine had given him, and took out the camphor tree box from his bosom, put it on the table and pushed it in front of Baili Jinse.

"Jin'er, this is a gift that my concubine ordered me to pass on to you to celebrate your birthday." Although it was just a small gesture, Baili Jinse knew that his cousin would not even hand it over to her.

Baili Jinse looked at the brocade box on the table in her hand, and slowly opened the box, a scent of fragrance came out.

Ao Wuyan smelled that fragrance again, his body was scorching like a prairie fire, flowing from his dantian to his limbs, a wave of heat swept his whole body.The heat in his dantian made him realize that it was not good.

The combination of the aroma in the box and the wine is a deadly love poison, the concubine mother and uncle even joined forces to plot against him, and quickly suppressed it with internal force, but it is probably too late now.

The blood rushed wantonly in his body, he had a splitting headache, the scene in front of him became more and more blurred, and he fell down on the seat and passed out.
