After two pots of osmanthus wine, Yao Jin's cheeks were already red, tilting his head and holding the glass, facing the window and said: "Yuebai, my brain is slow at the moment, and I really want to sing about wine - you can help me think of a poem about drinking, let me recite it too!"

Lin Yuebai couldn't help but shake her head when she saw her half-drunk and half-drunk appearance, and then said slowly: "Persuade Jun Jin Qu Wei, don't resign after drinking." The flowers are windy and rainy, and life is parting. ”

Yao Jin paused, thinking that he had carefully tasted these few sentences, and shook his head and said: "This is not good! It sounds miserable, who wrote it? It must have been written by a guy who has a bad career and a sad life! I still like and like that sentence "Will Enter the Wine", I like that sentence, life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon!"

"You're drinking so much that your tongue is getting knotted, and you're going to have a good day—taste this fillet, and get rid of your wine, it's a great fillet. Lin Yuebai carefully sandwiched two slices into Yao Jin's bowl, "Although you have a good amount of alcohol now, don't drink it again today, I think you have a little too much." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I just want to indulge in a thing or two by pretending to get drunk - you know, when I go back to the king, they know, and they have to run to bother me again. ”

Lin Yuebai hid her face and smiled softly, "Every time you go home after eating too much wine, Mr. Xiang must arrive first, and after a while, Lord Zhao Yu will also come, and the two of them will have to talk to you for a while, and it is strange that they can wake you up every time." ”

"Haha, that's right! Seeing the two of them, even the wine worm in my stomach was so frightened that I ran away!"

"Actually, Wang Xiang and Zhao Yu are very concerned about you. After a moment of silence, Lin Yuebai looked at Yao Jin seriously, "Lu Tao, Xuannu, and Liu Xiaolong are also sincere to you. ”

"Yes, they are all very good," Yao Jin looked at the empty white porcelain wine glass in a daze, "but I still don't want you to go, I'm still worried about you...... The Jiao family came a few times, and Wang Xiang also persuaded me a few times, and I would tell him a lot every time, with many reasons and many reasons, and even he didn't have anything to say back to me - but I knew in my heart that in fact, those really didn't matter, the most important thing was that I was reluctant to let you go. ”

Lin Yuebai felt sour in her heart when she heard this, and she held Yao Jin's hand and was about to speak, but Liu Xiaolong's voice came from outside:

"Your Highness, my subordinates have something to report. ”

"Come in. Yao Jin exhaled, put down the wine glass with a straight posture, and saw Liu Xiaolong come in with a letter of worship, and couldn't help frowning: "What kind of talent is this, looking for the lord of the country to cling to the relationship or to welcome him?" Don't you know the temper of the lord of the country, the worship posts have been sent to Xizilou?"

"Back to Your Highness, this is from the bakery that has just been sent. In addition, this sachet was presented along with the prayer post. ”

Seeing that the Ruyi sachet was very familiar, Lin Yuebai got up and walked over, took a closer look, and suddenly let out an "ah", and exclaimed: "This, this is - this is the one that Ayuan gave to her aunt privately today!"

Yao Jin's face changed slightly, and after a little thought, he understood: "It seems that your two girls used this sachet to inform the Jiao family of your whereabouts, so they are already waiting for us here!"

Lin Yuebai instinctively didn't believe that Ayuan and the others had such a scheming, and she didn't understand why they did this, but the truth was already in front of her, she couldn't help but sit down on the chair next to her sadly, and muttered, "Why do they ...... They're just two children......"

"Yuebai, let's go back and discuss the matter of the two girls, now that the guest has come to the door, how can we still hide here and not see it?" After that, Yao Jin asked Liu Xiaolong to go to the opposite side to invite someone over, and Lin Yuebai grabbed Yao Jin worriedly: "Ah Yao, Mrs. Jiao has taken care of Lin Yuebai since she was a child, and she really treats this niece, she was born in a family of military generals, and she has always been outspoken, if she speaks seriously, you must not-"

"Don't worry. Yao Jinchao Lin Yuebai smiled brightly, "Since you have already made a decision about returning to Beijing, I should fully support you." Now you have to wait for Li Yao's reply before leaving, and I should also explain to Mrs. Jiao that my Nanguo Mansion has no intention of forcing Miss Lin to stay, and I will make it clear today about the misunderstandings in the past. ”

"But I wrote to Li Yao, Mrs. Jiao must not know—"

"Naturally, I won't let her know-" As soon as Yao Jin's words fell, the footsteps outside the door arrived, and Liu Xiaolong said loudly: "Your Highness, Mrs. Jiao Ran, the Shangshu of the Household Department of the capital, asks to see Mrs. Jiao!"

"Please come in, Mrs. Jiao. Yao Jin motioned for Lin Yuebai to sit beside him, and filled the empty wine glass on the other side, then glanced slightly sideways at Mrs. Jiao, who came in, and said lightly: "Lord Jiao is so blessed, there is such a capable wife as Mrs. Jiao." ”

"The concubine is Jiaomen Mo's family, and she sees His Royal Highness the Lord, and His Royal Highness the Lord of the Nation is a thousand years old. ”

Seeing Mrs. Jiao kneeling and saluting, Yao Jin said cordially: "Madame, please get up." This is not a court, nor is it in the Nanguo Mansion, so Mrs. Jiao doesn't have to be so polite. Yuebai is considered to be the same generation as me, and you are Yuebai's elder, how can there be a reason for elders to salute juniors?"

Seeing Yao Jin say this, Lin Yuebai hurriedly walked to Mrs. Jiao's side to help her up, and called in a low voice: "Uncle, Your Highness has always been approachable, and he doesn't pay attention to these courtesies, so get up quickly." ”

Mrs. Jiao hadn't seen Lin Yuebai for a few years, and at this moment, seeing that her face was still the same, her complexion seemed to be better, and she was a little relieved in her heart, and hurriedly respectfully said to Yao Jin: "There is a difference between respect and inferiority, and the concubines dare not overstep." Today, I took the liberty to disturb in front of the Nanguo Mansion, but it was really because the courtiers missed their niece and couldn't see her, so they were in a hurry to make noise in front of the mansion, and I ask Your Highness to forgive me! Now that I see that everything is fine with this child, I think His Highness takes good care of him, and the courtiers are grateful to His Highness for her husband and the Lin family!"

Yao Jin smiled slightly, pointed to the empty seat next to him where the wine was poured, and said, "Mrs. Jiao must have a lot to say with Yuebai, so let's sit down and talk slowly." ”

At this time, Liu Xiaolong naturally led Xiao Er to deliver the dishes, chopsticks and teacups, Yao Jin ordered a few fresh dishes and asked for a pot of wine, which made everyone go down, Mrs. Jiao saw this, and also let the little girl and mother-in-law who came with her with, and when the door of the private room was closed again, she immediately couldn't help but say: "Yuebai, my uncle and aunt can't come to look for you in the past few years, do you blame us?"

"Yuebai doesn't dare! I know that the Lin family has changed dramatically, and my uncle and aunt can't have children. Fortunately, this matter did not implicate your second elder and the Jiao Mansion, otherwise how could Yuebai still have the face to see you. ”

"Do you know that your father and mother should have been exiled to Beiping Mountain to do hard labor, but the two of them are old, how can they stand being whipped and worked hard in the cold that day, this time thanks to the mediation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in many ways, although they are still serving in the Beiping area, but the work has been much easier. Besides, your three cousins are also working in the Beiping Army now, and with them taking care of them, you must rest assured, although your father and mother have suffered a lot, they can be regarded as saving their lives, and now everyone is looking forward to your well, and they can also plan for the future!"

Lin Yuebai nodded and said, "That's what my aunt said." Ayuan had already informed Yu Yuebai of these things when they came to Nanguo Mansion, and her uncle and aunt and three cousins had also spent a lot of effort on this matter, and Yuebai was grateful!"

Seeing that Lin Yuebai and Mrs. Jiao were busy talking to each other, talking about the people and things in Beijing and around them in the past few years, Yao Jin listened and poured himself a drink, only feeling that Lin Yuebai was a little strange at this time, she was not like her best friend Lin Yuebai, she seemed to have been reborn all of a sudden Lin Yuebai, the only daughter of the Lin family who had long disappeared, and that Lin Yuebai was unknown to Yao Jin.
