In the middle of the night, Feng Qingru couldn't sleep, so he put on a windbreaker and sat on the stone steps outside the hall, looking at the bright stars in the sky, thinking about it.

Counting the days when I entered the palace, it was more than a year. In the past year, she has felt a lot - her aunt's love for her, His Majesty's deep kindness to her, Mr. You's courtesy to her, Li Mengsheng's sisterhood towards her, and Tuoba Jun and Xiao Xincheng's unusual care for her. These are things that she will never forget.

From the beginning to the end, she thinks that although she has lost her parents, she is the happiest girl in the world. She thought about it, but she couldn't be happy, because there was still one thing in her heart - although Zong Ai framed their family, it was His Majesty who finally decided to kill their whole family. She doesn't know if she can really open her mind and treat Tuoba Jun and Xiao Xincheng sincerely, and she doesn't know whether she should love or hate.

The crown prince died, and Tuoba Jun and Xiao Xincheng kept vigil in front of the spirit for several days. Unknowingly, several people haven't seen each other for more than half a month.

As soon as he was done, Tuoba Jun ran to Feng Qingru again. Feng Qingru was sitting at the table embroidering, and Tuoba Jun suddenly sat in front of him.

When the two met, they just looked at each other stupidly.

Feng Qingru felt that Tuoba Jun was a lot stranger. He didn't make himself laugh like he used to, nor did he have the hearty laughter of the past, but there was only a trace of confusion and sadness in his eyes.

I haven't seen him for a few days, and this Tuoba has suddenly grown up.

"What's wrong? I'm a little embarrassed to keep staring at me. Feng Qingru looked at Tuoba Jun's clear eyes, the calmness, the indifference, and the obsession, his little heart was pounding like a deer, and he felt very embarrassed, so he turned around and sat down, and continued to embroider the cactus in his hand.

"It's nothing, it's just that you've lost weight." Tuoba Jun was afraid that he would see through his thoughts, so he immediately changed the topic, and saw Feng Qingru embroidering a cactus, so he couldn't help but ask strangely, "Why did you embroider a cactus?" You little girl's family, don't embroider some beautiful and dignified objects, but embroider something full of thorns, how different it is with you! ”

Seeing that Tuoba Jun changed his calm just now, his face was filled with the humor of the past, Feng Qing felt that it must have been his own delusion just now.

Seeing that Tuoba Jun was unimpressed, Feng Qingru defended: "Although this cactus is covered with thorns and looks extremely ugly, it is not afraid of the wind and sand of the desert, and it is not afraid of the scorching sun of the desert. No matter how dry the weather is, no matter how barren the land is, it can bloom the most beautiful flowers, and it always blooms undefeated. It's like the flame in my heart, like the fire palm in my hand, although it is not beautiful, it is the overlord of flowers. And I just want to make such a cactus. ”

"A cactus is so great that you say! Well, embroider if you like. However, you don't want to be a cactus, it's full of thorns, how scary! If you want to do it, you can make the red plum in the courtyard, which is much more durable than the cactus. Tuoba Jun couldn't argue, so he took a step back and sought the second.

Meow –

A fat white cat jumped out.

"Xiao Si? It's so much fatter! Tuoba Jun recognized at a glance the Persian cat he had given to Feng Qingru.

"Hmm. In the past few days, you and Xiao Xincheng have not come to me, only Xiao Si has accompanied me. I felt bored, so I couldn't eat anything, but Xiao Si picked up a big bargain, I could eat and sleep, and I gained so much weight in a few days! Feng Qingru quipped while embroidering flowers for a while.

Tuoba Jun's brows immediately furrowed, and he was silent. He hated himself for not being able to protect his father, and even more so for not being able to protect her, he hated himself for being so useless.

As soon as Feng Qingru spoke, his bowels turned blue with regret. She shouldn't have mentioned Xiao Xincheng, let alone hiding the late prince in her words, so she whispered again: "I'm sorry, are you okay?"

Tuoba Jun smiled happily, shook his head and said, "Hasn't this little Xincheng come recently?"

"Every day he would send me some flowers and plants, and he would leave a note, but I rarely saw others. He sent me this cactus. Feng Qingru could only sigh and complain, feeling that the two of them always came together, and they always didn't come together, as if they were deliberate.

"That's ......" When Tuoba heard this, he unconsciously looked out of the door, as if a black shadow turned around and disappeared in a trance. Perhaps, only Feng Qingru doesn't know that there is often such a person in front of his door.

This may be a man's intuition.

A few more days later.

The sky was overcast, and the sky was filled with thick gray clouds. The ancient trees of the Changqiu Palace also lost their former vitality, gradually turning gray and yellow, and began to wither, as if it was the end of a funeral song for the undead, and it seemed to be another overture to the return of the undead.

Suddenly, Li Mengsheng's face was pale, and he broke into the Changqiu Palace with a burning fire, shouting: "It's not good, it's not good!" Big things are wrong! ”

"What's the matter, so alarmed?" Feng Zhaoyi and Feng Qingru stepped forward and asked busily.

Li Mengsheng thumped his chest and said tremblingly: "The king of Nan'an wants to rebel!"

"What!" Everyone was amazed.

"How do you know?" Feng Zhaoyi kept an extra eye.

This Li Mengsheng is good friends with Feng Qingru, but Feng Zhaoyi has never taken any faces, and now that such a big thing has happened, she can only take it step by step and be cautious.

Li Mengsheng panted again: "I was working in the temple just now, and I accidentally heard them hiding in the inner room to discuss things. Later, I had a heart and secretly leaned in front of the window to listen, only to hear the king of Nan'an say to Lu Zhaoyi that they would do it tonight, and they would let Jia Zhou surround His Majesty's Taihua Palace, and Zong Ai would go to ......"

"What are you going to do?" Feng Zhaoyi hurriedly urged.

"Go and kill the prince's family!" After that, Li Mengsheng's eyes were red, as if he was in a sea of swords and fire, and the torment was unbearable.

"Wouldn't that be Brother Jun and Xiao Xincheng, they would be in danger?" Feng Qingru reacted immediately, and Li Mengsheng nodded violently, this is what Li Mengsheng is most concerned about - her sweetheart Tuoba Jun.

Feng Qingru's anxious heart was about to jump out of her throat, her palms were sweaty, and she looked at Feng Zhaoyi with begging eyes and said, "Auntie! ～”

Feng Zhaoyi saw that Li Mengsheng was really nervous, and felt that this matter was true, so he raised his eyes and looked at the sky, counted the hours, and said solemnly: "Wang Yu, you go and pack up your things, take my token, and immediately go out of the palace to tell Lord Gao Yungao about this matter, and ask him to arrange for the prince's family to leave the capital, and go as far as possible." Time is running out, and hopefully everything is still in time. By the way, Qing'er, you follow Wang Yu out of the palace and let Master Gao arrange for you to go with them! After that, he gave Wang Yu a token to leave the palace.

"Auntie, what about you?" Feng Qingru's eyes were filled with tears, and she didn't know when she would see each other again.
