"Qingyun, I'm back!".

Before Xiao Si could finish speaking, a voice and a figure came in.

Qingyun raised her eyes and looked at the person who was coming, with uncontrollable surprise and joy in her eyes. When the person arrived in front of her, her nose was sore and she almost cried.

Shen Lingfei was wearing a deep blue embroidered brocade robe, with rings jingling around her waist. Her hair was tied behind her head with a silver crown and pinned with an ink-blue jade hairpin.

The white jade folding fan in his hand waved gently, and the wide sleeves swayed with his movements. There was an arrogant expression on his face, and even his steps were big, with his feet turned outward.

Apart from the figure and age, Qingyun seemed to see again the little bully whom no one dared to mess with in the capital, the man who always depended on her and who had been cheated by her countless times.

Shen Lingfei walked up to Qingyun and saw the tears in her eyes. He panicked for a moment, "Don't cry. What's wrong? I haven't seen you for many years, and I have become so unbearable to look at."

He touched his face in confusion. If there was a mirror, he would definitely look at it.

Qingyun was instantly amused by him and said, "Yes, it has become very ugly, almost as black as charcoal."

Seeing Qingyun finally smiled, Shen Lingfei laughed and said, "You don't understand, that's the nature of men."

Qingyun laughed, "When did you come back?"

"I came back yesterday, specially to celebrate your birthday."

"Then...can you go back?" Qingyun said with hope in her eyes.

Shen Lingfei turned a blind eye to this and said, "Qingyun, I am still needed at the border."

Qingyun sighed inwardly. He was still unwilling to forgive herself, so he was unwilling to come back from the border.

This was not something she could force, so she could only nod and say "OK".

She supported every decision he made, just as he had supported her when they were young.

Shen Lingfei smiled sweetly. The box that Chu Huaizhou brought made another sound. This time the sound was louder than before, attracting Qingyun's inquiring gaze.

Shen Lingfei gave Qingyun a mischievous smile and walked into the lobby, fanning himself.

Qingyun was completely confused. Just when she was about to take another look at the box, Xiao Si ran over and said, "Princess..."

"Okay, just invite the person in," Qingyun has gradually gotten used to it.

"Yes," Xiao Si quickly brought the person in.

Qingyun, who has already seen so many people, is surprised to see who comes now.

Gu Mingrui bowed to Qingyun and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to Princess Qitian."

Qingyun was speechless. She glanced at Shen Lingfei who was already mingling with the crowd behind her and remained silent for a while.

"Minister Gu, do you know who is here today?"

Gu Mingrui had a head full of silver hair. He was clearly in his prime, yet he looked a little old. Only his eyes, like deep pools, were still bright.

Although he didn't look up, he heard the voice he wanted to hear.

"I know."

Qingyun frowned and said, "That's fine."

He sighed and let the person in.

Although Shen Lingfei came back when Qingyun had her coming-of-age ceremony, Gu Mingrui was not there.

It seemed that he was avoiding Shen Lingfei. Wherever Shen Lingfei was, Gu Mingrui could not be seen. This was very different from the time when the two of them were inseparable.

Sure enough, when Gu Mingrui entered, the room suddenly became quiet for a moment, but soon became lively again with Lu Xingci and Qing Xiao.

Qingyun stood at the door without moving. She always felt that someone had not come yet.

Sure enough, Xiao Si came running over in a panic again.

Without waiting for him to speak, Qingyun said directly: "Bring the person in."

Xiao Si nodded quickly, turned around and ran back.

Soon, a woman in a purple gauze dress walked in.

The woman was wearing a veil, her figure was graceful and elegant, but her steps were steady and dignified, suppressing any romantic thoughts.

When the person came in front of her, Qingyun couldn't recognize who he was.

But when the person bowed, the voice was clear and gentle, "Princess, are you in good health? I wish you all the best in the spring, and that you will always be beautiful when we meet."

Qingyun instantly recognized the person from the voice and happily helped the person up. "This should be my wish for you, and it has already come true. Now you have changed so much that even I can't recognize you."

Shi Fenglan took off her veil, revealing a full and delicate face, no longer as thin as when she left. Her red lips were raised and her eyes were shining.

"It's your destiny that you don't recognize me. Sometimes I can't believe it myself." I can't believe that she can be so full of life.

Qingyun took her hand and walked inside, "You've come all the way here, you really give me face."

Shi Fenglan smiled lightly and said, "That's inevitable. This is the most important moment in your life, and I always want to see it with my own eyes."

Qingyun thought she was talking about her birthday and had no doubts.

As soon as the two entered the room, everyone in the room suddenly became quiet and all looked towards Yan Qinao.

Some of those looks were teasing, some were looking forward to the show, and some were teasing.

Now in the eyes of everyone, he is not the almighty Emperor Qi Tian, ​​but their friend, Yan Qinao.

Yan Qinao laughed and said, "Why are you all looking at me? It's a rare opportunity for Princess Qiming to come here, so we don't want people to think that we don't welcome her."

Qing Xiao looked at him meaningfully and said, "You are right. The princess has come all the way here, and it is we who failed to welcome her in person."

Shi Fenglan smiled appropriately and said, "Today we are all here to celebrate Qingyun's birthday, but we have no status to speak of. Even Emperor Qitian is so integrated, Shaoqing Qing should not follow those useless etiquette."

Qing Xiao laughed and said, "You're right, please take a seat."

Qingyun looked around and found that all her friends were there, except for the person in her heart.

It was so rare for everyone to get together this time. It had been three years before we finally got everyone together.

Chu Huaizhou snorted in dissatisfaction, "Why isn't the most important person here?"

Qingyun laughed and said, "Didn't you lock it in the box?"

Puff, cough cough cough...

The tea in Lu Xingci's mouth sprayed out, causing the people sitting next to him to look disgusted and move back.

Mo Jingchun helped him calm down.

Qing Xiao snorted disdainfully, "I've said it before, Xue'er is very smart, she can see through this trick at a glance."

Shen Lingfei nodded in agreement, but said with some regret: "It seems that our surprise is going to fail."

Chu Huaizhou raised his eyebrows and said, "That's not necessarily true."

His words not only confused Qingyun, but also made the other people at the table look bewildered.

Lu Xingci finally calmed down and asked: "What do you mean?"

Chu Huaizhou looked mysterious and said, "Why don't you open the box and see what's inside."

Everyone couldn't wait to get up and head towards the box in the yard.

Qing Xiao and Lu Xingci were the first to rush in, and the last one was Lin Ruochu who slowly walked out supporting Mo Jingchun.

Several people gathered around the box, looking at each other, but no one opened it.
