In the quiet night, the lights are as bright as the day, and there is harmony.

The queen's birthday is held in the main hall of the Changxi Palace. Two dragon and phoenix chairs are placed in the center of the main hall. Today's protagonist is the queen. It goes without saying who should sit in these two seats. Separate tables and chairs were set up for the concubines in the palace, and a long table was placed below, where the queen's family and relatives sat respectively.

Everything at the birthday banquet was simple rather than luxurious, and the food and drink were not bad. Although it was not as labor-intensive as building a high stage to invite opera troupes to sing, the dance hall in the palace changed its tricks to make the whole banquet enjoyable.

Su Qiyu sat quietly at Ye Jinmo's lower head. She knew who was at home today, so she specially wore a light blue hairpin skirt, tied up an elegant cloud bun, decorated with a few blue bead flowers, and matched it with a Pair of pearl earrings, looks simple yet elegant.

Her clear and beautiful eyes swept across the scene, watching the empress socializing with her family members, Su Qiyu felt bored, picked up the silver vessel in front of her and took a sip.There is warm milk in the cup. She is pregnant and can't drink alcohol, so Ye Jinmo arranged for her to specially prepare the cup for her. The milk is very fresh and light in taste, which is most suitable for her current taste.

Taking a casual look around, the seat next to her was vacant. It was originally assigned to Concubine Xiang. Before Wanxia came to ask for instructions and said that Concubine Xiang was not feeling well, she didn't come. The seat was vacant, and she glanced behind her again. The place that should have been famous is also vacant.

"Where's Big Brother Ming?" Su Qiyu frowned and asked.

Lan Zhu beside her leaned over and whispered in her ear: "I guess I went out for a while, but I was still here just now!"

"Brother Ming has been acting alone, even I can't bear this kind of situation!" Su Qiyu chuckled, and inadvertently found a problem, and then said: "By the way, where is Dongli?"

Lan Zhu looked around, then frowned and whispered, "Strange, he was still here just now!"

Su Qiyu froze for a moment, how come both of them disappeared by such a coincidence?

Then after thinking about it, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he sat down peacefully in his seat, then raised his head to meet Ye Jinmo's eyes, just in time for him to see a gratified smile on his face, Ye Jinmo's heart was like spring water rippling , it is rare to feel warm at such frequent banquets.

"By the way, who is sitting opposite? It's been so long and I haven't seen anyone."

Su Qiyu couldn't help noticing an empty seat at the rear right opposite her. Logically speaking, the empress should arrange the seats according to the number of guests, and wouldn't let an empty seat out for nothing, and it was still such a conspicuous place.

Lan Zhu also glanced at that position, shook his head and said: "I don't know who that seat is, it seems that I haven't seen anyone since the beginning, it must be a distinguished guest invited by the empress!"

Hearing Lan Zhu's words, Su Qiyu couldn't help but think of the day when the queen gave Ye Jin Mo a favor, saying that a relative would be invited to the family banquet. I don't know if this relative meant something, maybe it was the honored guest in this vacant seat Maybe.

What kind of medicine is the queen selling?Su Qiyu was a little confused.

"I don't want to, I'm going to get some air!" Su Qiyu stood up after she finished speaking, just when Ye Jinmo looked back at her again, seeing her get up, her eyes darkened to warn her not to run around.

Su Qiyu pouted helplessly, and also gave him a "go out for a while" look.

The two passed messages with their eyes as if no one was there, only the two of them could understand what the meaning was. Ye Jinmo couldn't hold back Su Qiyu in the end, knowing that she didn't like this kind of banquet, and since she was in the palace, it should be fine with Lanzhu by her side. Then she was allowed to leave the banquet, and Su Qiyu left happily. Fortunately, everyone was celebrating the Queen's birthday, and no one noticed her leaving.

The grove at night was quiet and deep, and the cool feeling was very comfortable. Accompanied by Lanzhu, Su Qiyu wandered around the queen's palace, and with the lanterns hanging high, she walked very steadily.

She doesn't dare to walk too fast now, and she has to be carefully supported by Lan Zhu to rest assured that the impact of this pregnancy is far better than imagined, and she is really about to be filled with happiness.

"Princess, you and the emperor were talking with your eyes just now? Why can't I understand?" Lan Zhu asked strangely. She didn't know how Su Qiyu did it from the deadlock to Ye Jinmo's compromise just now.

Su Qiyu smiled mysteriously, and said happily: "When you have someone you like, you will know what it means to have a heart-to-heart connection. Even with the eyes, we also know what each other is thinking and what we want to express..."

"It's such an unfathomable feeling, but..." Lan Zhu smiled comfortably, thinking of the past, and sighed: "I won't like anyone anymore. In Lan Zhu's heart, there is no one else who can love you except the princess. Touch my heart!"

Su Qiyu knew how sad her words contained. The harm Shangguanrui caused to her would never be erased in this life. Fortunately, she was relieved, but Lan Zhu fell into it. I hope she can be happier!

"Listen to me telling you well!"

A familiar voice came from the grove, and Su Qiyu stood still. The voice was so gentle and elegant, but it seemed a little impetuous, unlike the voice in my impression.

"Princess!" Lan Zhu also noticed the voice in the woods and reminded Su Qiyu.

"Hush, don't talk!" Su Qiyu put her index finger on her lips and said, then she and Lan Zhu carefully hid behind the tree trunk and slowly poked their heads out.

There are two figures of Xin Chang standing in the woods. A man and a woman stand facing each other.

"If you have anything to say, just say it!" Dongli lowered his head slightly, his tall bristling hair fell softly from behind his ears to his shoulders, and his eyes stared at the ground like water.

Ming Qingyang looked at Dong Li indifferently, wanted to take a step forward but stopped, and the words in his heart turned into a sentence: "I'm sorry!"

Dongli raised his head, looked into his eyes with disappointment, and smiled wryly, "That's it?"

Then she was about to leave, she just came out to relax, today she felt inexplicably bored, the first time she left the table alone without asking for instructions, she did not expect to run into him here.

It just so happens that the person she doesn't want to face at the moment is him. Ever since he saw her naked body yesterday, she is in a daze and doesn't know what to do. God knows how to make jokes. She deliberately avoids him in return It was an unexpected encounter.

"Dongli!" Ming Qingyang saw Dongli turned around and wanted to leave, so he quickly grabbed her, and happened to hold her arm, her slender arm was tightly held in his palm, feeling anxious, and blurted out: "Dong Li!" Li, I will take responsibility!"

Dongli was startled, and turned around to look at Ming Qingyang in disbelief. His face was sincere, making her wonder if the words she heard were hallucinations.

"You... what did you say?"

"Dongli, I will take responsibility!" Ming Qingyang said firmly again, the firmness in his eyes was unquenchable.
