In the back garden, the rockery trees are scattered, and the occasional sound of white doves cooing is heard, which adds a little silence to the quiet and leisurely afternoon. The swing in the corner of the garden was slightly rippling in the wind, but it was empty.

In the past, when the flowers were blooming, the prince in the court played Shuangyan.

Tonight, it will be changed to another residence, and there will be few people in the flowers.

"County Lord, County Lord, where are you hiding?" A crisp sound broke the silence of the afternoon, and Lu Ying hurriedly walked from outside the garden gate, looking for it and calling at the same time.

"Lu Ying, can you make a little quieter? Disturb my dreams. Qiyun stood up from the chaise longue in the shade of the trees, yawned, and muttered discontentedly. Sleepy in the afternoon, she leaned on the shade of the tree to nap, the warm spring sun, it was the time to sleep, was disturbed, she couldn't help but be a little unhappy, and said lazily: "Say, what are you looking for me?" It felt like the fire had burned down the house. ”

Lu Ying stomped her feet and said hurriedly: "County Lord, why are you lying here?" It's cold here, so be careful that your body is cold. This Chang'an is not as good as Jiankang, although the weather is warmer in spring, but it is also a little cold. If you have a cold and cough, the second son will not do anything to you. When the time came, he ignored the slave and maid with a cold face for a long time. ”

Qiyun listened to her complaints, felt interesting, stretched out a finger and gently scratched her cheek, and teased: "Don't be ashamed, Yizhen only ignores you for half a day, and you are so aggrieved." I don't dare to ask for a girl like you. Ming'er, I'll send you directly to Yizhen, and I'll be done, so that my ears and roots will be clean. ”

Lu Ying blushed and said angrily: "County Lord, it's just that the slave is worried about your body, so you arrange me like this." Let's see who will serve you wholeheartedly. ”

Qiyun smiled: "What a sharp-mouthed girl, didn't I say what you thought?" ”

Lu Ying was angry, "County Lord, you ......" turned his back and ignored her again.

Qiyun stroked his palms and smiled: "Okay, Lu Ying, I'm joking with you." Seeing that Lu Ying was angry, she hurriedly diverted the topic: "By the way, Lu Ying, you are in a hurry to find me, what is the matter?" ”

Lu Ying's face was a little anxious, and she said, "Look at what you interrupted, you forgot all about business." I went to the guest room to deliver medicine to the Buddha, but saw that the room was empty, and asked the next person, they all shook their heads, and they didn't know, the Buddha was gone, would it be ......? I'm worried that what General Wang Zhenwei said is true. ”

Qiyun was startled, and quickly got up to cover Lu Ying's mouth and said, "No, the Buddha is open-minded, not that kind of person." Don't worry, don't make a noise just yet, you can rest for a while. I've searched everywhere and I'm sure I'll find him. ”

Qiyun didn't alarm others, and searched the Governor's Mansion almost all by himself. In a hidden corner of the garden, I suddenly heard the whirring wind. She followed the sound and saw that the Buddha was dancing happily with a branch, and although he was holding a branch, it did not affect his chic movements and outstanding posture.

Seeing this, Qiyun calmed down, went to the study, removed the long sword on the wall, and threw it at the Buddha. The Buddha took the long sword in his hand, his figure froze, and when he looked up, he saw under the pear tree, Qiyun smiled at the corner of his mouth, and stood with a smile. When the spring breeze came, snow-white pear blossoms flew all over the sky, some on her hair, some on her shoulders. The bright sunshine, snow-white flowers, and picturesque maidens are beautiful......

The Buddha drew his long sword and danced, holding the green blade in his hand, and his body was more light and agile, agile and vigorous. A series of lights and shadows flashed, like a frightening flood, like a swimming dragon.

Qiyun saw that there seemed to be a knot in his chest, and his legs and feet were injured, so practicing swordsmanship like this, he was afraid that he would hurt himself. She took out the jade flute from her sleeve, opened her lips slightly, and blew it. The flute sound is lively and relaxed, cheerful and warm, like a stream in a mountain stream and a birdsong in the spring breeze.

The civet listened to her flute, and said strangely, the feeling of depression and irritability in his chest for these days gradually disappeared, and he felt a peaceful and indescribable happiness, and the sword in his hand gradually calmed down. After dancing for nearly half an hour, the Buddha stopped, walked up to her, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to her, "Lord Zhuohua..."

Qiyun interrupted him directly, and said, "There is no county lord prince here, so you can call me Qiyun." ”

The Buddha nodded in agreement, a gentle smile appeared on his cold face, and asked her, "Qiyun, what tune are you playing?" I've never heard of it, and it's good. ”

Qiyun's face was a little proud, and he replied: "I played the "Purple Bamboo Tune", and this tune is a combination of the sign of fire and the feather sound of water. Hydration can keep the heart from being too hot, and replenishing the fire can keep the water from being too cold, so that your heart will gradually calm down and breathe naturally and freely. Do you feel better now? ”

The Buddha bowed his head slightly, "Well, after I listened to it, I felt very comfortable, and my heart felt much better." ”

Qiyun looked at him with some concern, "I guess you must have encountered something unhappy, your heart is very tight, and you can't breathe well." If there is anything unpleasant, you must let go, if you are depressed in your chest, you will be tired and hurt. This "Purple Bamboo Tune" is very suitable for meditation and qi, why don't I blow it to you every day. When the heart is peaceful, the depression in the heart will be swept away. ”

The Buddha nodded in thanks, wiped the body of the sword with his sleeve, and asked casually, "You know how to play the flute, did you learn it from Liu Yizhen?" ”

Qiyun shook his head: "No, I learned from Yizhen's eldest brother, his name is Liu Yifu." In addition to being proficient in music, he also likes to dance with knives and guns since he was a child, and I also learned a little bit of kung fu from him. She stood up, took a walk, and performed a few moves.

Seeing that she danced a few moves, the soft and only empty frame had no strength, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Qiyun Jiao said angrily: "Dead fox, you dare to laugh at me. Although he was ridiculed, when he saw the Buddha's frowning brows and laughing, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved and smiled.

The Buddha was in a relaxed mood and sat side by side with Qiyun under the pear blossom tree, and the two chatted casually. The Buddha was a little impressed by her, the rhythm of the sound, some martial arts skills, and a lot of things she knew at a young age. Presumably, Liu Yifu, the eldest son of the Liu family who taught Qiyun these skills, is also a beautiful son, like Liu Yizhen.

Qiyun told him that when he was eight years old, he left his parents and family in Liaodong and was sent to Jiangnan, thousands of miles away. When I first arrived at Jiankang Taiwei's Mansion and dealt with the Liu brothers, I saw that the second son, Liu Yizhen, and the third son, Liu Yilong, were extremely friendly to her, thinking that the young sons in the Taiwei Mansion were all such characters and were very easy to get along with.

However, the dragon gave birth to nine sons, each different. Liu Yizhen and Liu Yilong are both elegant people, but the eldest prince Liu Yifu is an overlord, temperamental, and a rogue who is best at music and archery martial arts, and the others are ignorant.

Qiyun didn't know Liu Yifu's temperament at first, offended him, was punished by him, and was imprisoned in a firewood room to starve and freeze. Later, she judged the situation and observed her words. She pretended to be humble, and from time to time humbly asked Liu Yifu for advice on music and martial arts. Being a good teacher is a common disease of people. Qiyun's song was welcomed, which greatly satisfied Liu Yifu's vanity. Gradually, Liu Yifu regarded her as his little follower and no longer embarrassed her.

The Buddha listened to her talk about the years under the fence, light and light, and the waves were not happy. Thinking that she is a hostage, far away from her homeland, without a relative by her side to raise and support, her words and deeds need to be careful step by step, and she always cares. She didn't say it herself, in fact, life was not easy, and she couldn't help but feel more pity for Qiyun in her heart.
