Chapter 074: Like a Fish in Water
In the evening, Tuoba Tao pulled Qiyun and went out of the Henan palace together. Walking on the dimly lit streets, the lights were looming, and the street scene was full of pedestrians, neither of them paid much attention. At this moment, there is nothing else in the eyes of the two of them, only each other.
Qiyun and Tuoba Tao walked side by side and were speechless for a long time. Walking on the deserted street, in the dim light, Qiyun was very close to him, and her touch seemed to become particularly keen. She could feel the smell of the pine sun on his body, hear the rustling of their clothes as they moved, and even hear her own heartbeat.
She looked at the shadows of a pair of people reflected on the bluestone slab, like a person, and her heart was flustered and sweet.
She wanted to speak, but she was afraid to break the beautiful night. When she was thinking about it, she suddenly felt a warmth on her body, and a cloak was covering her body, and it still carried his warm body temperature. Although it is the end of spring, Luoyang is still a little chilly at night. Tuoba Tao saw that she was thinly dressed, so he took off his own to her.
Qiyun's heart was hot, and she looked at him in a daze, unable to speak. Tuoba Tao just smiled slightly, signaling that she didn't have to care. As the two of them walked, Tuoba Tao suddenly seemed to say to her, and seemed to mutter: "I like this feeling very much." Patrolling at night may seem hard, but seeing the people of the side under his guardianship are safe and sound, and the city is peaceful and calm, I feel a great satisfaction. ”
Qiyun listened, nodded and sighed: "Yes, being needed is a real happiness. The happiness that is won by giving and asking for is more real and reliable. ”
"Yunqing, can you understand my feelings?" Tuoba Tao asked.
Qiyun looked at his sparkling eyes and nodded. The corners of Tuoba Tao's mouth raised slightly, and he gradually grinned, and the smile reached the bottom of his eyes, and the bright smile like the morning sun made the moonlight dim and the stars dull.
The two walked side by side for a while, and Tuoba Tao saw a restaurant in front of him, so he said to Qiyun: "Let's go and sit in that place for a while, and we will have supper." ”
Qiyun nodded in agreement, and the two entered the restaurant. Seeing that the war has just passed, it looks like it has just been renovated. Fortunately, the two of them didn't care much and chose a quiet place to sit by the window. Tuoba Tao ordered two bowls of noodles, looked around, and said, "I remember you told me that you wanted to open a southern restaurant in Pingcheng, do you still have this intention?" ”
Qiyun replied, "Yes, as long as you want to eat." I want to open a southern restaurant for you in a place with the best scenery, the most elegant and quiet in Pingcheng. How about the idea? ”
Tuoba Tao was overjoyed and sighed with satisfaction: "I didn't expect me to be treated like this. With Yun'er treating me like this, Tuoba Tao is enough for this life!" Tuoba Tao couldn't help but shake Qiyun's hand. When she saw others looking at them sideways, she struggled shyly, but she was held tightly by Tuoba Tao and couldn't break away, so she had to pouting and follow him.
At this time, the light at the door dimmed, and a person came in. At first, Qiyun didn't pay much attention, but gradually noticed that all the people in the store were a little stunned, and they stared blankly at the person at the door. Qiyun noticed something unusual, followed everyone's gaze, and saw that the person who came was in a white brocade robe, holding a folding fan, heroic, peerless, who was not Mochuan?
I saw Mo Chuan walking leisurely towards Qiyun, a smile on the corner of his mouth, the phoenix's eyes were full of ice and seemed to be on fire, staring at Tuoba Tao's hand holding Qiyun tightly, as if he was about to burn a hole.
Qiyun stood up in disdain and withdrew his hand from Tuobatao's hand. Tuoba Tao turned his head and also saw Mo Chuan, looked at it for a moment, and looked at Qiyun with some puzzlement. Qiyun squeezed out a smile from his face and said softly, "This is the palace master of the Chaoying Palace, Mo Chuan. ”
Tuoba Tao suddenly realized, his face was happy, and he stood up and made a gesture, "I have long admired the name of the Lord of the Mo Palace." It is really an honor for Tao to know the palace master here and see the demeanor of the palace master. ”
Chaoying Palace and He Guang's Qingxi Villa are both the right-hand men of the Wei royal family in the rivers and lakes. Tuoba Tao met the palace master of the Chaoying Palace for the first time, and he was such a celestial demeanor, so he was naturally overjoyed and had the heart to make friends.
Seeing him like this, Mo Chuan also replied politely: "His Royal Highness has been born noble, but he is a virtuous corporal, and he is really a dragon and a phoenix among people. When I saw this today, I admired it. ”
The two of them have their own styles, and they are on par, and they feel pity. After the two were polite to each other, they hit it off at first sight. Especially Tuoba Tao, it is like a fish getting water.
Tuoba Tao re-ordered the wine and food, warmly invited him to take a seat, and asked Mochuan for a cup. Tuoba Tao said that they came to Luoyang to celebrate the birthday of the king of Henan. And Mo Chuan also said that his trip was also for this matter. Tuoba Tao invited him to go to the palace of Henan together after dinner.
During the banquet, Tuoba Tao and Mochuan talked very happily, and Tuoba Tao did not forget to give Qiyun vegetables from time to time, and his eyebrows and eyes were doting and caring. Every time Qiyun could detect Mo Chuan's two frosty gazes, which made her extremely uncomfortable. Looking back at the past, I saw that everything was as usual for him, as if it was his own hallucination.
After finishing the meal, Tuoba Tao invited Mo to go with him, and the three of them left the restaurant together. Walking on the street, Tuoba Tao and Mochuan Wuzi talked warmly. Qiyun couldn't interject, just listened quietly on the sidelines.
Suddenly, a person behind him ran like the wind from behind, almost hitting Qiyun. She was about to dodge, but Tuoba Tao was quick to move, grabbed her shoulders and quickly turned sideways to avoid her. Immediately after that, there was a burst of shouting and footsteps behind him, and I saw several big men running forward, shouting in their mouths: "Catch the thief, stop the person in front of you." ”
When Qiyun heard about the "thief", she was about to pop out the flowers, but Tuoba Tao was faster than her, kicking a stone on the ground with her toe and hitting the man's knee. The man fell to his knees, hugged his knees, and screamed in pain, and several steamed buns in his arms were scattered all over the ground.
A few big men in the back immediately came forward, picked up the steamed buns on the ground, and shouted, "If you don't have any money, you will rob the steamed buns in our shop, and you will die." A good man is not right, but he will be a thief. He rolled up his sleeves and slammed his fist, and he was about to fight.
When the man saw this, he knelt on the ground, shook his hands again and again, and begged bitterly: "Uncles, spare the villain this time." It was because I had fled and had not eaten or drunk for several days and nights, and my two children were so hungry that I couldn't survive. The uncles are good, and the little ones will not dare next time. ”
When the men heard him say this, they hesitated, but some people said, "You say you are pitiful, but we are no better." Over the years, there have been many wars, and Luoyang City has changed several owners, and we finally saved some to chew. In the blink of an eye, he was robbed by stragglers from nowhere. We pity you, who will pity us? ”
"That's it, that's it." Several people next to him chimed in, grabbing the man's collar or beating him. It seemed that the resentment that had been pent up for days was about to be vented on that person.
